'Uggh whats that noise it can't be half six could it seriously I've literally just got sleep and now i have to get up, all well moaning aint going to earn me money'.
Pulling myself out of bed looking half dead as a usual teen looks turning an alarm off is a good start.
'Turning my music on is good enough for me to get motivated to start a day with a smile, wonder if Alexandra is in work today god i love that girl she makes me laugh and makes me smile for some strange reason'
After getting ready for work, I recieved a parcel, 'who could possibly be sending me mail' I open the parcel to find a letter at the bottom followed after a black leather coat the letter said,
'Dear Grant,
Sorry for missing your birthday work here is getting out of hand but i hope the coat will do as it is your kind of styleLove,
Lucifer (Dad)'
'Huh another sorry letter its been 14 years since he has seen me and yet again he does this seriously if he cant make it he shouldn't speak to me' after that letter I took the coat out of the box and tried it against myself 'looks nice' I just left for work.***
"GRANT!" Thats all I heard until Alexandra launched herself at me and wrapped her arms around my neck and almost choked me to death, "Alexandra I...cant breath" after she released her arms grip from around my neck I just took a massive gulp of air before she could speak "Sorry Grant I forgot how strong I am hahaha im just so excited that its your birthday I cant believe your 17 already and your still a virgin lol" she always got me there she knows im holding back for that one special person, meaning her.

After reaching work my boss walked over to me and asled "Grant I undestand that it is your birthday today? Am I correct", feeling intimidated, I replied "Yes, and im 17 now..." he looked at me and said "well then I suggest I we all sing happy birthday then" as soon as I heard him say sing thats it I asked him "please dont, I mean you dont need to im going to a party later so I will get enough there" after hearing that he just nodded and left it at that and walked back into his office and closed his blinds 'god that was a close call, just imagining everyone singing that would make me feel embarrassed to the max' I let a little chuckle to myself and Alexandra caught on to my laugh and she just smiled at me and that was it for me just seeing her smile made my heart start thumping against my rib cage like it wanted to escape to hug her, 'jheeze why does she have to look so god damn cute when she smiles at me'.

"Alexandra are ready yet?" I heard an unfamiliar voice over the counter "Coming babe" I looked over my shoulder to see Alexandra in a black dress 'oh my god she looks so hot, good god shes my friend why would I think that, but still she is still hot' at that point I heard the strange man say to Alexandra "where is the red dress I got you?" When he snapped at her like that I knew something up with him he wasnt normal "James, the red dress you got me was too revealing, and I dont want a start a fight here" I stepped in between Alexandra and the bloke she was with "Is there any problems here?" 'Why did i ask that of course there a problem here' I felt like an idiot saying that "Its okay Grant, me and James where having a disagreement" after hearing say that I knew I couldnt do anything "Alexandra are we going or not? We have places to be" I turned my body to face James and before I can say ought Alexandra got me in a hug and whispered "happy birthday" I just smiled and looked at the clock "will I see you tommorow?" I thought I might aswell try, "im not sure, I havent checked my shifts but you will find out tommorow, good night" I felt hollow when she said that line, "okay, see you tommorow maybe" feeling down I waved Alexandra and turned back at the clock, 'Well my shift is over, and my lesson starts in hour' I sorted my stuff out into my bag and got dressed, whilst putting on my new coat I noticed a symbol in the inside of the coat, 'what kind of brand is this, ive never seen a halo on a coat before' it made me wonder what it was but I needed to leave so just ignored it.

During lesson I was looking Atlan confused at the work, "hey, are you okay?" I asked atlin he just looked at me and smiled I relized he was thinking about somethung else and left him, after awhile I looked at the clock, 'wow that cant be the time' it was almost half nine at night and lesson finishes at ten. After my lesson I said see ya to Atlan and we parted, when i was walking home I had the feeling I was being watched and I looked around no one was there, 'come on Grant, stop being so paranoid' walking a bit further I started to hear like a flapping noise before Incould turn around I was lifted up at massive force I couldnt move as this thing has my arms, then it released the grip on my arms and all I can do is look down and scream until....BOOM, 'I hit the floor with so much force it should of killed me why... wait why do i feel like ive just had a sugar rush' after looking at myself all over the mysteriouse thing dropped in front of me, 'wait is that a woman it cant be she has wings and is that a....a sword' I launched back far enough to stay out reach of the woman, the woman started to walk towards me and all I could think about was attack but I need to run to stay alive but the symbol of my coat was showing and the woman sees it and looks at me and demanded "WHERE DID YOU GET THAT COAT!" I couldnt lie so I looked at her oddly "It was a gift from my.....my father" she stared at me until she launched at me and I grabbed her arm with the sword in hand cropped my feet on her chest and pushed my hardest and she just launched into the air 'wow im strong wait if I can do that what does this mean' before I could think the woman launched back at me at high speed and I jumped over and pulled her sword from her and she turned around and stunned at me holding her sword she launged at me I let a yell out but before the mysteriouse woman dropped down she said to me "no demon has.....has never bee......never been able to hold an.....an angel sword" holding the woman in my arms I heard Alexandra shout at me "GRANT GET AWAY FROM THAT ANGEL!" 'wait did she say angel is.....is she a demom too' I did as i was told "Alexandra how do know she is an angel?" I just asked a stupid question "Because.....beacause im a demon, and is that her sword inside of her?" She looked me and then her "I killed her but she told me no demon can hold an angel sword but why would she say that to me?" I was looking into her eyes and I could see her panicing she grabs my hand and yanks my arm 'oh fuck what have I just got myself into?'.
