He strolled into the kitchen and I heard the cups clink so I guess he was making it. I turned on the TV to see more news on almost every channel. It was honestly getting annoying but I couldn't get over the fact at how cool this was.
Phoenix returned with two mugs, one in each hand. He handed mines to me and sat down beside me.
"I'm just gonna make it so they close down the roads. Then I'll ease it to a stop" he said calmly.
I guess he knew what he was doing.
"Fine okay. But don't be surprised if my dad shows up at the door" I said in a matter-of-fact tone. I didn't even look at him while I spoke. My eyes were on the TV.
I was sitting up straight at the near edge of the couch while Phoenix was beside me resting into the back cushions. So I'd have to turn around a 90 degree angle to see him. Which of course I was too lazy to do.
We were both quiet, content with our drinks. He sat up and leaned forward to put his mug on the little table beside him a few minutes later. I did the same when I finished but I put it on the table close to my side. I then decided to sit back and put my feet up. I scooted back and he put his arm around me pulling me closer to him. I was about to reject it because my brain was going haywire. But I didn't. I leaned more into him and cuddled up next to him. He had a firm grip of me around my waist but he was surprisingly gentle.
"Do you like to play games?" He asked out of no where.
"Um yea I guess.. What type? Hide and seek?" I laughed at my own response.
"Video games? Card games? Board games?" He asked again
"Oh yea!"
"Cool. First do you want to see what I got you and possibly maybe you might want to go change? Just to be more comfy."
"Oh sure"
We broke from our positioning and we both sat up. He got off the sofa first and I held out a hand so he could pull me off. He locked his hand with mine and walked me to his room. I saw on the bed two bags. I was confused.
"Didn't you only get one thing?"
"Well no I got different things."
He let go of me and walked over to pick up a bag to hand it to me. I skidded over to his bed and jumped on top of it. I took out two shirts and warm sweatpants with a nice fuzzy sweater. I turned to look up at him and I pushed all the thing aside from off of me. I jumped off the bed and I hugged him tightly. I guess he half expected it. He hugged me back.
"Ahhh I love you so much" I squealed.
He chuckled in response. "I know, me too"
I processed the words and realized what he was saying. I blushed but I hid it in his chest. He laughed, obviously reading me.
"You haven't even gotten to the good stuff" he said separating us.
"Oh" I turned back to the bed and sat back on top of it.
I reached for the next bag and I saw the dress I tried on when I was with Ashley. My hand went over my mouth in shock.
"Oh my gosh Phoenix.."
"You like it?" He asked as if I was going to show rejection.
"Yes!" I squealed "but you didn't have to-"
"Well I did" he countered.
I got off the bed again and walked up to him slowly. I slid my arms around his neck and he placed his hands on the small of my back.
"Thank you" I spoke a little quiet, then I quietly hugged him again.
But this didn't just deserve a hug, that dress was expensive. I went on my tip toes and left a kiss on his cheek.
He was half stunned i guess because I would never be the one to do that, ever. He wrapped his arms completely around me as he buried his head into the crook of my neck. I felt his breath on my skin and his heart beat against my chest. He planted a kiss there on the side of my neck and I was not sure what to do. I was a little scared. My heart fluttered and my breath hitched. He chuckled and moved back up so he could regain eye contact with me. I felt my cheeks grow heated. He looked at me with a sexy grin planted on his lips. I blushed, he was still holding me in his arms. I looked him in his sparkling eyes. I saw relief in them.
He slid one hand up my body to my face, not breaking eye contact. He looked into me deeply through my eyes. He leaned forward slowly and pressed his lips to mine. My eyes shut slowly and I let my hands find its way to the back of his head, through his soft, purplish hair. He slid his hand though my hair, pulling me closer to him while he himself leaned closer. He broke away for a moment and i let his forehead rest on mine,
"put your walls down," He said quietly.
I didn't really understand that but I tried to. I tried to let loose and be relaxed. I countered him,
"What about you, put yours down" I said also quiet.
He chuckled "the last thing you want is for me to put my walls down"
I was confused, "why"
"Another time"
"Now?" I asked sweetly leaning a little closer to his lips giving a short kiss.
He smiled and kissed me again briefly but with more emotion flowing into me. He broke away as he started to lift me up. I held his face in my hands as he now looked up to me. He brought me down a little so he could meet my lips with his own. My legs wrapped around to his back and he held me there. He was sending me an overflow of emotion. I accepted it all and I saw dark clash with light, i smelled jasmine and tasted vanilla, and I felt overpowered in a way. He kissed me more firmly and I felt some of the overwhelming emotions leave me. His kisses died down to smaller softer ones. He started walking over to the bed slowly still giving me small kisses. There was too much emotion he was sending to me. He stopped and stared into my eyes when I opened them. He smiled at me sweetly and laid me down slowly onto the bed. A gush of wind blew into the room and I began to shiver. I was starting to sit up but then Phoenix put his arms on my shoulders, holding me still. He was still standing at the side of the bed. He stared into me and leaned down to give me a kiss on my forehead. I giggled and he looked pleased with himself. He grabbed the clothes and threw them into an open drawer, then closed it. He started for the door,
"Go ahead and change, call me in when your done"
And he walked out closing the door behind him.
My heart fluttered and I found myself jumping off the bed, skipping towards the drawer. I took out the sweatpants and the shirt and quickly changed. I took the dress out and held it out in the air, gazing at it. It was so beautiful. I still couldn't believe he got it for me. Then there was a knock on the door.
"Hey can you get me my sweatpants from the third draw on the right please?" He said not opening the door.
"Oh uh okay!" I yelled and went to find the sweatpants.
I got them out and closed the draw and walked to the door. I opened it slightly and handed it to him, hiding myself.
"Thanks...lover."
I giggled and closed the door. I laid on his bed wondering. I yelled out to him.
"You can come in whenever Phoenix!"
Within 5 seconds the door opened.
He walked in with his shirt and pants in his hand. I mean he looked pretty damn hot with just sweatpants on. I caught myself staring when he closed the door. He grinned at me and threw his clothes in a drawer. I looked at my hands to avoid staring.
"Would you like to give me a hug?" He said as he started walking towards the bed laughing.
I looked at him and I carefully stood on the bed. I walked over to him and he gripped his arms around my waist and I ran my hands through his hair.
"Your hair... It's so beautiful."
He chuckled "so are you"
He gripped me tighter and dragged me off the bed. I held on to him and let my body press up against his. I hugged him tight and felt his warmth radiate. I felt emotion flowing into me.
He put me down and quickly leaned down for another kiss. My hands went to his strong shoulders as he gripped my face. I felt the lustful emotion now coming down on me more and more. His hands traced along down my body until they rested on the small of my back. I let my hands go around his neck, pulling him more closer to me. The more I did the more emotion he sent in to me, more lust. I melted into him. I lost my balance and he supported me. His lips went away from my mouth and began to move to my jaw and then my neck.
I sighed and giggled. I couldn't keep it in anymore. I was overflowed with emotion. Then he stopped and brought his head back up to look at me. I smiled at him.
"Yanno, I really like your name. Phoenix. Its just perfect."
He chuckled, "your just so special, in many different ways"
"Are you gonna give me another lesson on grigori?" I asked sweetly
"Not unless you want to know. But I do have a pretty cool story about what I know and they don't"
"Oh what!?" I felt some emotion leave me, but he was still holding me in his arms.
He laughed "calm down, I'll tell you. But I'm gonna go sit up there" he said signaling to the bed behind us.
"Oh okay yea" I giggled and jumped back on the bed when he let go of me. He followed and sat against the headboard next to me.
"Okay so,"
I listened attentively.
"I once stole the very thing grigori would not want an exile to have. It was a list of all future grigori. They expected me to kill them all off so there would be no future for the grigori. But I didn't. I told them I didn't look at the list, but I did. I read through it until I found something uncommon. More than that, it was never heard of before."
I was utterly confused.
"Wait what?"
"Okay so I looked through a list of all the future grigori to come and I found your name, and each grigori has a partner in battle. And when I saw your partner I knew you must've been someone extraordinary."
"Partner? Like soul mate?"
"No no no although that's possible in very few rare cases. Your grigori partner is not suppose to have any affairs with you like that, unless you two are already destined to be soul mates"
"Wow, so wait who's my partner?"
"I can't tell you yet"
"What! Why?" I pleaded
"Because, you have to be of age before you know."
"SIXTEEN! You expect me to wait till I'm SIXTEEN?!"
"Yes."
"Cmon it's just a few more months till my birthday, it won't hurt." I whined
"Eh.."
"Pleaseeee" I gave him my prized puppy eyes.
"Er okay but don't lose hope."
"Hope in what?" I asked confused again.
"Do you love me?"
"I don't know..." I felt like a bum for saying that.
"I think I do, but I'm not sure. I'm not experienced with this." I said covering up.
"Oh you will be soon." He replied, a smirk crossing his features.
"But this is like day one."
"So what? Things escalate."
"Do you love me?" I asked quietly.
"Yes, you are my lover."
"Oh.. I want to love you, I don't know what's holding me back." I sadly said.
"You do, I know you do."
"How?" I questioned
"I asked the Angels."
"Are you serious!"
"Yes."
"OH MY GOSH THATS SO COOL!"
"I guess. Well I asked them if I had a soul mate and they said yes. And I asked who, and they told me that I already know because I looked at the grigori list."
"Wait so who?" I was still a little lost.
He leaned closer to my ear, and whispered.
"You.. Are my partner"
He moved away with a huge smile and I was in shock.
"I am?! How is that possible! You aren't grigori!"
"I have helped grigori tremendously, I guess the Angels thought I deserved a chance."
"Wait but then that means we can't actually, be together..." Great...Depression just come and get me!
"There's an exception, I told you it's very rare for a grigori partner to be your soul mate, but the Angels made clear that youre my soul mate as well."
"What!!" I almost yelled. I was so happy.
He laughed "yes now calm down!"
"Okay okay, I can't believe this!"
I turned and swung my arms around him.
"Thank you.. I'm so happy right now."
"Perfect" he said rubbing my back. "I love to see you happy" he held me there for a while.
I kept my arms around him and I think I almost fell asleep.
"If you want you can sleep, I have no problem" he said in a soft voice.
I barely got any sleep the previous night, what like 3 hours maybe?
He started to slide down the headboard so I could lay down on top of him. I let my head rest on his chest and he continued to stroke my hair and rub my back.
"Can I have one more kiss sleeping beauty?" He asked me quietly.
I picked my head up and looked down on him. I tucked my hair behind my ear and leaned down. He took control and kissed me softly. I laid my head back down on his chest and closed my eyes. I fell asleep within a few seconds.

//it was so bright. Light and...clouds? I could barely make out the figure speaking without being blinded.
"I will see you soon ahavah"
"What who are you?" It felt so real. I had to ask.
"You will soon find out"
"What are you?" I asked
"I am not of you but of my own kind"
"What the hell kind of language is that!" I was so confused at this point.
"One of which you are yet to learn. Goodbye."
"No wait! Come back!" The light shining disappeared slowly and I was left in a full white space.
Until a white dragon came swooping towards me. //
