"Rose!Wake up!"her mother said downstairs.
Rose put the pillow on her head.
"Rose!"
Rose threw the pillow away.
She dressed up,brushed her brown hair and washed her teeth.
She went downstairs.
"Here I am!"
Rose was a seventeen year old tall girl with brown hair and grey eyes.
"You can't sleep that much!"her mother said while she was putting her daughter's breakfast on the table.
Her father was reading his newspaper at his sofa drinking his coffee.
"It is Saturday,my love.Our daugher can wake up anytime she wants!"he said.
"See?Daddy defends me!"Rose said and gave a kiss on her dad.
Her mum shook her head and laughed.
"I am going for a walk!"she said.
"Take care!"her mother said.
Rose closed the door behind her.
"She is like you"Rose's dad said.
"They grow up so fast!"Rose's mom said touched.

She was walking at the beach.
The sun was cloudy and the wind was blowing.Rose was feeling alive.
She started to run.
She was feeling the air to penetrate her lungs.
Suddenly,she fell on a passing and they both fell on the ground.
"I am sorry!"she said when she stood up.
The passing stood up.
He was cute.Tall with black hair and mysterious black eyes.
"It is okay!"he said laughing.
Rose thought that he was mocking her so she walked away.
"Wait!I wasn't meant to laugh at you.By the way,I am Claus!"he said and gave his hand.
"I am Rose"he said and tightened his hand.
"Are you running away from someone?"he asked.
"No!No...I am just ...jogging..."she said shyly.
The guy laughed.
"You are cute..."he said.
Rose's cheeks became red.
"Where do you live?"he asked.
"At an old house beyond some...other houses..."
"Ah!The house of an old aristocrat?My parents had told me the story.You must be the daughter of his grandaughter?"he asked.
"Yeah...That's me..."she said.The atmosphere was awkard.
"I live at this house..."
He showed to her the only beach house.
"Wow...House near the sea?Fantastic!"she exclaimed.
"So...Rose...Do you like to go for a walk to the town?And tomorrow we can go for jogging but you will promise you won't kill me"he said.Rose laughed out loud.He was funny,with good sense of humor.He seemed a good guy.Not like the other boys she was dating.
"I would love to!"she answered.
And they were going to the town.
"Enfield is beautiful,don't you think?"he asked her.
"Yes,it is by far!"she answered.
Indeed,that guy was trully Claus.
But he was not the demon-Claus.
He was a human,having a normal life.God decided to give him a second chance because he had helped Marylin,Andrew and Gabriel at the Gates and because he was protecting Marylin.He was born as a human,without remembering his past life.But  when he would die,he wouldn't become an angel.
Rose and Claus became really good friends.When she introduced him to her parents,her mother recalled her past love.Demon Claus and her daughter's friend really looked like each other.Her mother felt nostalgy for a moment,but she was happy with her husband.
Anyway,Claus and Rose fell in love.In fact their first kiss was at the beach.

Claus was chasing Rose at the beach.
He managed to catch her.
"Hey!Leave me!"she yelled while she was laughing.
"No,I won't!"
He pulled her from the waist and kissed her.
"I love you,Rose".
"Will you always love me?"she asked him.
"Always..."
