VI.

weeks have past since i last saw ryan, i keep finding myself thinking about him for some strange reason.

i'm not sure why i'm so drawn to a human, especially a stranger.

suddenly my phone stared ringing and i answered but to my confusion it was just silence before the caller hung up, strange. they probably dialed the number wrong.

i think i could use a walk. i don't care where i even go, i just want to clear my head.

i grab a jacket and put it on
it's april but there's still a chill in the air

at least it's not that bad..

ryan's pov:

it's morning again..

i got out of bed reluctantly

i walked into my living room and a strange feeling washed over me when i saw something on a shelf

that bottle of holy water..

it reminds me of the fact it's been a few weeks since i last saw him

that demon..

i shouldn't even call him that, it's not like he even acted like most demons

sure they try to trick you, but usually after they get the chance to attack they drop the act.

he never dropped the act, i felt like i could trust him for that reason.

i shouldn't though, maybe he's just a very good liar

i looked away and back to the table where the note he left me still sat, untouched.

i would be hypocritical to hate someone for that, i'm no different.

i stared out my kitchen window

it's probably nice out today, i think i should go walking just to clear my mind.

i grabbed my phone just in case and i walked over to my coatrack that sat by my front door, pulling my black coat off of it and opening the door i let out a sigh

i really hope this will make me feel better, maybe even help me forget about..

i won't even bother saying his name, for the sake of my ever depleting sanity..

as i stepped out the morning sunrise made me smile a bit, i missed being up early enough to see it

small droplets of blood that still stained the path around my house made me wince

why does everything have to bring me back to that night..?

i started walking towards town

there was a slight chill in the air but i wasn't bothered by it, if anything it makes it more comforting

suddenly i felt a buzz in my pocket and my ringtone startled me

the letters on the screen made me pause

No Caller ID

i was just about to ignore it when it rung again, this is slightly annoying me now

i picked up expecting to hear something

but it was just silence

i said hello a few times, but still nothing but silence

i wanted to hang up but something was telling me to just wait a bit longer

the seconds passed by until just as the outgoing call time hit 66 seconds

*beep beep beep* the disconnect sound filled my ears

what the hell..?

66.. i stared at the time only to realize what it made

666

..hah right? there's some demon in my phone now

must be some weird coincidence, nothing to worry about.. right?

i put my phone back in my pocket and let out a sigh

i glanced at the sky, it's yellow hues slowly turning into a light blue

it's almost morning and i wasted precious time on some random caller

great

i finally began my walk, i won't let myself get distracted again

i walked over to my coatrack, pulling my black coat off it and pushing open the door with a heaving sigh.
i really hoped this would make me feel better, because at this point i didn't know what would.
the door slams behind me as i stride into the cool air, the sun beating down on my face.
i shield my eyes, flinching. what the fuck is sunlight! 🗣️🔥🔥
