Oh yeah, chapter two baby XD well it took me longer than than antisipated but alas, its up
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"The clouds are so pretty," I thought to myself. I was lost in the swirls and curls of the wispy clouds.
There was a knock on my door, snapping me out of my revere. "Come in," I sighed. For a second I was actually thinking of something other than Eli, aka hot waiter guy.
"Hey, you've been quiet today." my mom always knew when something was wrong with me. "What's wrong?"
I almost told her about how I met some guy at a smoothie shop, gaped at him a bit, then after my friends left he came and talked to me like he had known each other for years. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, after I saw him get hauled away by an oversize leprechaun a letter magically appeared on the table with his name. Cause that would go over well.
"No, I'm fine."
"If you say so," I could tell she wasn't convinced. "Well I'm going out tonight, will you be ok alone?"
I raised my eyebrows at her. "How many times have I stayed home alone?"
"Well I just wanted to make sure," she looked like she was in a hurry.
"Just go," I said with a giggle. Sometimes she acted more childish than I did. I sighed again and looked back up at the clouds. They weren't real, just painted on my ceiling, but it had become force of habit to look at them when I needed to de-stress.
Now was one of those times.
Well for one I was feeling out of it, mostly due to the fact that I had never liked a guy, never even went out on group dates like my other friends had, and now I couldn't stop thinking about one. Eli. Even his name sounded hot. I wondered what his name would sound like as a..., my thoughts trailed off.
As I was lost in thought, I heard a loud crash from downstairs and jumped so high I almost hit my head on my low ceiling.
I grabbed the baseball bat that was under my bed and slowly crept to my door, peaking around the door. Since the hallway was dark and the kitchen downstairs was lighted I could see the shadow of two silhouettes slowly coming up the stairs, like a tiger creeping towards it's prey. In this case the prey was me.
"Ok, so we get what we need and get out, no dillydallying." I heard a voice whisper.
I held the bad tighter.
I heard a light tap on my window, so quiet I wasn't even sure if I heard it. I slowly turned around and you wouldn't believe what I saw. Mr. Hot Waiter Guy. But wait for the best part. He was hovering outside my window with a big ole grin plastered on his face. Do you wanna know what what was sticking out of his back? Two freaking big, black wings.
He held a hand up shushing me
As i turned around i felt a hand clamp over my mouth.
"If you don't do what we say, we might have to do something with that pretty little face of yours," I caught a glimpse of a shiny, black knife. That's when the realization actually set in.
Ohmygod. there are two guys trying to rob my house and im being, pretty much, threatened with a knife.
"Now now, lets not play with our food," the other guy said. Wait, food. What did he mean by food. Where these those crazy cannibal people. We learned about them in history, they kidnap people then eat them because they thing it will make them closer to their god.
Wait a second, what about Eli. or bat-Eli, whatever he was. Wasn't he coming to help me? Where was he?
My mind was going a mile a minute, analyzing everything that could possibly happen.
"Now, your going to take this sticky note and write a note to your parents. You're to tell them that your going to your friends house to spend the night. I dont care who it is, just pick somebody. And make sure you make it convincing." he growled.
"Well I dont have much of a choice now," i thought to myself.
Mom or Dad,
Im spending the night at Sara's, don't worry i'll be fine, i have my phone on me and i'll call if i ne..." I was cut off by the man who was now holding my wrist cussing under his breath.
"Someone's here," he hissed, looking back twords the stairs.
"Looking for me?, Eli said. He was sitting on the rail of the look- down bay window looking overall bored. "Well im just flattered, I mean for you two to take such precautions to keep me out. Locking the windows, covering your scent ect. ect. ect., but you so carelessly forgot to lock the front door,"
He waived a hand and the two men fell over gasping and clutching their throats.
I gasped and suddenly his attention turned to me. "Well I see your ok," as he got off the rail and walked over to me, an evil little smile played on his face. "Come on, lets get you something to eat, i'll explain everything on the way there.
"Like those," I gestured to his back where his wings had sprouted from. They really did look like bat wings, down to the last detail.
Eli took my hand and led me outside to the front yard. Then, you wont believe it, he picked my up and started flying across my neighborhood!!!!!
I felt my eyes get really wide and i buried my head in Eli's shoulder. I felt him tense.
"What's wrong? "
"We're really high up," I didnt tell him I was deathly afraid of heights but since he was laughing I figured he had already guessed that. "So start talking," I mumbled into his shoulder. He laughed again.
"What?" I could hear the smile in his voice. I picked my head up.
"I said, start talking,"
"Why whatever do you mean?" with mock shock on his face. I tried to give him a withering look but failed, laughing at how silly his face looked.
"Really, explain those things sticking out of your back," and with that I put my head back in his shoulder.
"Well you see, usually I don't tell people this, but under the present circumstances..." he trailed off. He suddenly seemed nervous. "anyways I'm a, well you see, a demon,"
"Hmmm," and I fell asleep in a semi-strangers arms, 200 feet in the air, after finding out that he was a demon.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
