"Are we going back to your apartment?"
"Oh Yeah.." Her cheeks burnt up red
They both walked back in silence
And they spent the rest of the night getting all of Sarah's stuff in order
2:30 am
"Alright I'm heading out" Dante waved his hand back and started heading to the door
"Wait! You can't just leave me here what if those thieves come back" she rushed towards Dante to stop him.
"You'll be fine believe me.." He turned around to see genuine fear glistened in her eyes
Those damn beautiful green eyes he thought to himself
"Please Dante."
"Ugh lets go.."
She already had a bag packed
Dante threw his jacket over her, even though he needed it more because he was still drenched in sweat and blood
They made little small talk while walking home they both enjoyed the silence, no echo of cars just pure sweet silence

Things were different in this world, you were born either angel or devil but that didn't necessarily mean that you were going to heaven or hell. Demons can go to heaven just how Angels can go to hell
People often wore necklaces on which place they would like to go, but people who were indecisive could choose in between half heaven half hell, but there was a rare set of necklaces made purely out of the gates of heaven, it assisted in getting into heaven because once you got there you could place the piece into the gate. But Dante's necklaces was a different type, his was a special kind forged by both heaven and hell.

They got home and Dante made her sleep on the couch, she had a big sweater on and a pair of shorts, Dante tried to act like he wasn't staring but he had started to grow rather fond of Sarah, after all he hasn't seen the ash haired girl since the old Eden only small glimpses of her orbit in his mind.
Things like this baffled Dante late at night
He struggled to sleep most nights. Dante laid  in a cold empty bed, the sheets were thrown all over the floor. He laid there looking up at the ceiling fan slowly spinning in circles. Dante could hear sarah restlessly turning on the couch, he sighed got out of bed and slowly walked down the stairs, Sarah laid up as he walked passed
"What's with you?" She said with sleep surfacing her voice
"I can't sleep that's all" he began making a cup of coffee and mixed it with the booze he had left in the fridge, it smelt revolting but Dante drank it anyway all the lights were off but the light from the moon lit up the house enough, he sat next to her on the couch and drank all the coffee in one shot, he despised the taste, Dante hated coffee in general but it's all he had to make. The couch was big enough for the both of them but he sat close to her, close enough to feel her fingers next to his, he could feel his blood pumping and his heart started pacing as he slowly began to turn his head and look at her, an easy smile broke onto his face as he looked at her, she slowly turned her head too, they both looked each other in the eyes and they leaned closer into each other, her hand went onto his thigh and his into her hair their noses touched and they looked at each other eye to eye, Dante's eyes slowly slipped to see her lips, he could feel his chest getting tight, he tilted his head and pressed his lips against hers, Dante felt his heart thumping as their kissing motion slowly swayed back and she was now ontop of him, their lips intertwined in romance. Her hands were on his collarbone and neck and his hands in her hair and down her back, after a few minutes She lifted away, looked him in the eye and then laid her head down on his chest. They both ended up sleeping on the couch,Sarah wrapped around him tightly and close enough for him to feel a cold breath on his chest, he didn't know wether it was his breath or hers though.
Sarah was in deep sleep, she had one hand
Under his shirt and the other one hanging on the side, Dante looked up through the skylight and thought, "I wonder how God feels about this." He began to patiently close his eyes and he kissed Sarah on her forehead and held her right before he had fallen asleep.
