   Night had fallen upon the Combs' residence and Jon had fallen asleep. Sock pulled his small, cold body out of Jonathan's arms, even if it had been a little more difficult than he had thought it would be. Jon had proven to be very clingy. Sock looked down at Jon and smiled a little, realizing that he made a pretty good friend. Sock was thankful that that woman, Providence had done this to him.

   He walked to the window and gazed up at the star-filled sky. It was a beautiful night. He exhaled, feeling the warm night air

   He looked out for a while, simply thinking about the day's events, wondering why Jonathan seemed to be getting more friendly lately. Sock was glad. He pondered for a few hours, until he realized something. A certain human loved him. It took a few more minutes for Sock to realize that he returned Jon's feelings. All he had to do was keep it to himself until the time was right.

   Sock's smile stretched to a ten-miles wide grin. He couldn't believe his discovery! He rushed over to Jon and hugged him. Sock was quite possibly the happiest demon alive- or rather, dead.

   Sock didn't let go. He didn't even sleep. He just sat and took in Jonathan's warmth as Jonathan took in his lack thereof. To Sock this moment was made of pure bliss, even if Jon wasn't aware of what was happening. 

   Sock would occasionally press their cheeks together and nuzzle the peacefully sleeping boy. In the early morning is when he felt Jon stir.  Sock immediately pretended to be asleep. It was a good thing he was such a great actor.

   Jonathan opened his eyes and looked down at the demon "sleeping" on his chest.
