That night as I get ready for bed I check my planner for tomorrow, 8:00am Year 11/12 Mass. Great, School takes away even more sleep from me. I hear footsteps thudding up the stairs towards my room and a split second later my mom walks in, "Goodnight Sasky sleep well" I groan "Mom, I told you to stop calling me that, Im not a little kid anymore!" She kisses me on the cheek before going back down stairs to watch TV. "Ok" I say once i'm sure she is gone, "The coast is clear" But before I can say another word Mathew leaps through the window into my room. You would think I would be used to it by now but it takes my breath away every time, "You have to tell me how you do that some time" I say with awe. He walks towards me but unexpectedly stops right in front of me, "Saskia there is something I have to tell you" He says seriously, "Um, Sure" I say nervously. "Do you remember at the school? How I bit you ?" I run my tongue over my lip at the memory, It had spread a nasty rash across my face. "Yes, I remember" I say. He brings his hand up to my face and rubs off the concealer I still needed to take off, I blush as he takes in my rash and look up expecting to see humour on his face but all I see is regret. "You probably wont believe me" He begins "But I committed a terrible wrong in biting you" I look and him confused and he continues, "I should have stopped myself but I have never felt the way I feel about you for anyone else before." My heart warms to his words, "Awww" I say before going to hug him but he stops me with an out held hand "Saskia" He says seriously "I'm not finished yet. You may think you know everything about me but that is not true." I stare at him and he continues "I am not what you would call human" I continue staring "I am what you humans call a 'demon'. Before you jump to any conclusion I want you to know that not all demons are bad. Sure there are some bad demons but there are bad humans aswell aren't there? I am one of the good kind, Sworn to never killing a living creature for anything but the need to survive. That bite on your lip" He says gesturing to my lip "Is my mark, My mark that I am yours and you are mine. Sadly though since you are mortal and the power of the mark is demonic, The bite on your lip is slowly turning you into a demon" He finishes. I burst out laughing "Good one" I say through gasps of air "You almost had me there for a second!" I look up expecting to see the laughter in his eyes showing that I was right and that he did try and trick me but all I see is deep brown serious eyes. Shit I think Why is he acting like this? And then without another world he leaps out the window and vanishes. I sigh and plop down on my bed and try to get to the sleep that didn't come.
