z.m: Family Ties

"Morgan, sweetie." Someone was shaking me. I groaned a little.

"Five minutes." I murmured. The person laughed.

"Honey, you didn't pick me up from the hospital." I opened my eyes immediately to see my mom. She seemed a little startled as I sat up. She even moved away from me a bit.

"What?" Her hand was on her chest like something I did had surprised her.

"Oh nothing.. Your eyes." She murmured. "For a second they looked.." She stopped and began to laugh. "Oh but that's silly of me. It's probably just my mind playing tricks on me. How did you sleep sweetie?" Sleep.. Wasn't I just dying at some crossroads? I glanced around the room until I found Zayn, leaning up against a wall. He smirked. "Yes honey, Zayn picked me up. I was a little surprised actually but oh he has such a nice car." Did he? I didn't know he had one.

"Yeah, I'm sorry mom. I don't know why.. I fell asleep."

"No problem at all honey. You need to relax and rest after all. Part time college student, full time worker, plus a mom in the hospital. I'm surprised you haven't collapsed sooner."

"Momma." I said, shaking my head. None of that was a big deal. I could handle myself.

"Oh baby, I love you. I'm so happy to be back with you." She wrapped her arms around me then and I smiled, hugging her back.

"I'm happy you're here too." I murmured, hugging her tightly. When my mom got up to go to the bathroom, I stood and walked over to Zayn who put his arm around my waist and pulled me in. I kissed him quickly.

"What happened?"

"I made you into a demon, you get to keep your soul and your body. Unless you want to get a new one but..." He grabbed my ass. "I like this one so keep it." I rolled my eyes at him. "I wiped your mom's memory of the incident. She has no recollection of those men who took her out of the hospital and w'ere going to have to teach you about the eye flickering." He blinked then, switching from black back to normal. I smiled a little.

"What about Lev? Did you.. Weren't you two close?" Zayn's expression darkened and he let go of me, taking my hand.

"Yeah but he was a power seeking bastard. I killed him. He was the one who has been trying to overthrow me. I'll probably be fixing his mess for a century." Zayn scoffed and I squeezed his hand.

"You'll be fine." I paused. "Why did he want to be in charge?" I didn't really know much about Zayn of Hell or his life really so I was a bit confused.

"Lev and I, we were some of the first souls to enter Hell. When Lucifer announced he was giving a First Demon full control of Hell, everyone thought it might be Lev. He was always more practical you know? A thoughtful kind of guy." I nodded my head. "But when Lucifer chose me, I thought we were good, Lev and I. He knew I didn't want the job but I wasn't going to disobey a direct order from the first fallen."

"Of course." I replied sarcastically. Zayn smirked.

"But I guess all that anger and resentment built up inside of him until he couldn't take it anymore. He finally had to let it out and kill me or hurt someone I care about." I smiled slowly.
