As far as now we have shared some wholesome moments like when he gives me aftercare or stays with me until I fall asleep but... I want more, more than just sex.
In fact, I'll ask him right now.
♡
The match shared its flame with the candle that's been lit many times before. The candle I so rely on and the glass jar of matches that my life wouldn't be the same without.
In less than a minute - POOF!
Red smoke then disintegrated quickly majestically rolled down to reveal the 7ft demon, Alastor.
I was first to speak, opening my mouth as he turned around to face me for the second time this week. "Alastor.."
"Hm?"
I wasn't afraid anymore. He didn't intimidate me but my heart raced, my cheeks burned like fire underneath his bright and hell-like red gaze.
Deeper into his eyes, there was something - something below, below his dominant grin and bloodthirsty mask there was a hint of admiration, a hint of love.
I could feel my heart thudding, Do I have a crush on him? A demon?! Alastor?!?! It's only a crush, right??
I didn't know it yet, or maybe I did. Maybe I was in denial but I really, really loved him. I loved Alastor with my whole heart, I would do anything and everything to be with him for eternity.
"Alastor can we talk?" I walked over and turned on my nightlight, as it was getting dark. Alastor sat down on my bed and leant against my pillows and headboard. I climbed on the bed, sitting opposite him.
"Um.. I think I know now, what I like." My voice rolled out softly and I stared down into my lap. "So.. we don't have to keep doing this twice a week, I mean you're probably really busy anyway and why are you even spending this much time with me - a human?"
His ears dropped and his signature smile seemed to shrink, though I was too focused fiddling with my fingers to notice his expression.
"Oh..." The radio filter glitched off. "That's fine.." His unfiltered voice gave away his emotions, he was noticeably disappointed.
Hearing his unfiltered voice properly for the first time, I lifted my head up. He instantly returned to his usual state with upright ears, a wide smile and eyes which locked everyone out.
"Awwwwweee!!" I smiled with wide, fascinated eyes at him. "Your voice! Your unfiltered voice! It's so cute!!" I was suddenly ecstatic, despite my heart beating faster and faster.
Alastor seemed to get flustered, ears twitching and a light pink tinting his cheeks. I realised he was embarrassed and stopped fawning, though keeping a small smile.
I want to get closer to him... but no! It would seem weird! But oh, how I want to kiss him... and be with him. Am I just a fangirl?
"Is this all you wanted to discuss?" His radio filter was back.
"Actually..." I thought for a moment, unsure of how to word it.
"I'd like to maybe, get to know you..? I've had an amazing time but... maybe we can share memories more than just hardcore sex?" Anxiety built up in my gut, worried about his reply.
"I.. understand if you'd rather kill me, I am just a mere human of course... you probably are only fucking me for your own good but..." I hesitated but was unable to finish my sentence anyway when Alastor jumped forwards, pushing me down onto my bed with my shoulders.
He stared intensely into my eyes, "I care about you. I'm not doing this for my own good. Y/n I would never kill you..." His grip on my shoulders softened with his expression.
"I'd love to get to know you..."
At his words, my heart felt like exploding into a million pieces. I felt a wave of relief and excitement rush over my body. "Really?" I smiled eagerly.
"Really." He confirmed, a looked of seriousness about his face, though he failed to mask his own feelings of content.
I reached my arms up and wrapped them around his waist, hugging him.
"How should we start?" I asked, a little lost on what to do. It was a very vague phrase, 'get to know.' Get to know what?
"Hmm.." He thought for a minute with a closed-mouth smile and eyes that stared down at me. He leaned down and kissed my nose, this action catching me off guard as blood ran up to my cheeks.
WOAH! Did he just KISS ME? He's only ever given me hickeys or eaten me out before... well he's done more of course but that's close enough to a kiss.
BUT ANYWAY.. HE REALLY KISSED ME! It was just on the nose but oh my gosh I'm going to fucking explode.
It was obvious I was happy, I assumed by the way he stared at me with a very glad expression.
"It's going to take time but I am willing to get to know you." He said.
"Maybe we could uh.. hang out someday to learn some things about each other?"
Hmm.. sounds like a date. Well he probably didn't mean it in that way at all.
"Like a date?"
My eyes bounced wide at his words, too excited to speak so I just nodded swiftly in reply.
"Are you busy anytime soon, then?" I asked him.
"Are you busy?" He replied.
"I have work tomorrow, then the next day I'm hanging out with my friend for their birthday... so, maybe in two days?
He grinned sincerely, a happy smile of which he wasn't trying to hide his emotions or intimidate anyone. A real, proper smile. One for me.
"Alastor?" My head tilted. "Uh.. I don't want to break the mood or anything... but you're a demon and I'm a human... Are there any... rules on that?"
"Well, it's forbidden." My heart sank at his words, knowing I would be unable to be with him.
"But for you, my dear, I'm willing to take the risk." His voice was soft and gentle, unlike the murderous Alastor portrayed in the shows. I guess even the most dangerous demons have the ability to love and care.
