You decided to let Ghirahim sleep in your bed while you set up your own little spot on the floor. Ghirahim was surprisingly hesitant, but you convinced him you didn't mind. You let him get settled while you left to the bathroom to change into some sleepwear.

And now, here you were in a sleeping bag in the middle of the night trying to think of what to do in the morning.

Your eyes kept losing their focus on the wall and looked at Ghirahim as he slept, he looked comfortable in your bed, you were glad he didn't complain or anything. You used to be sure he was the type that would only accept luxury and the best of everything, but he didn't seem like that at the moment, maybe he was thankful for what he had since he was probably sleeping under that bed for the last three nights.

Marie had tried to call and texted you many times, but you just continued to let the calls go to voicemail and didn't answer, soon you just turned the phone off completely.

What else could you do?

It wouldn't be good if someone were to discover Ghirahim, especially the police or the government itself. If they were to find out that some Demon lord was in the world, there would most likely be chaos. You had to keep Ghirahim a secret, no matter how painful it would be to hide it from your friends.

With that, you drifted off to sleep.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

You awoke to the feeling of being gently shuffled by someone's hand on your shoulder.

You looked over sleepily and saw Ghirahim kneeled beside you, an unsure expression on his face.

That was when you realized you hadn't been dreaming the whole time.

You sat up, slightly surprised.

"Oh-Um, good morning." Ghirahim said quietly.

"Good morning." You replied.

"Is something wrong?" You tilted your head, Ghirahim seemed to be worried about something.

You jumped in bewilderment when you suddenly heard a series of banging noises on the door of your room.

"(Y/n)!!" A familiar female's voice yelled.

It was Marie.

"Yes, that friend of yours, 'Marie' was it? Has been banging on the door repeatedly trying to get in, since you told her about me and I made that rather unsettling scene, I think she's trying to see if you're alright."

You started to panic.

"Y-You need to hide!" You whisper yelled to him as you got up.

You led Ghirahim to the bathroom and shut the door, then made your way to the front. You pretended to be groggy as you slowly opened it.

"What is it...?"

You were almost immediately tackled to the ground, getting the wind knocked out of you.

"Oof..!" You wheezed as you hit the floor.

"(Y/n)!! Are you okay?!" Marie screeched as she squeezed your body tightly in her arms, cutting off your ability to take in oxygen.

"I...Can't....breathe..!!" You managed to choke out.

With a shocked gasp she almost immediately loosened her grip and sat up, leaving you gasping for breath.

"I'm so sorry!" She tried to comfort you while you got your breathing together.

"I-It's okay...What was the problem..?" You sighed.
