The question always ran through my mind. I mean, why me? Why did I have to be the one that gave into the fact that I really did love a devil? He was just so perfect, and his imperfections were perfect as well. I just really loved him but why? How could this be my fate? Was it because I was truly a human, but then again it still wouldn't be right. We aren't allowed to love our earthly ones. I was confused, but there was no time for that now.

Hannah was facing us face and face alongside of that guy Ethan. She had so much rage to Sulfus, and it was like she wanted him to protect her like he didn't when she was little. He left her, and now I'm taking him away from her again. Maybe her rage is targeted at me.

"Raf, you little angel bitch come here, and fight me," she said as I was still resisting. A bell rang in my head, and I slowly came to the ground outside. My feet hit the ground and I stopped. I stood still to see if she would make a move. Yet she just hovered in midair, looking out in to space. That's when I saw a tear shed.

"Are you giving up," she said in tears. I knew she wouldn't fight me in this state. It was like she was touched by an angel. Ironically speaking of course since she was indeed a devil or whatever she had turned into.

She fell to the ground in weakness, and just dropped. She stopped flying and just fell. She hit the ground so hard I could barely bare to watch. No spell hit her, no one pushed her because she just stopped flying and fell to her own death. "I'm-I'm through," she said stuttering. Sulfus glanced down then glanced back up to see her crying face. He rushed over, and held her in his arms.

"I'm so sorry sis," is all he said over and over again.

I almost cried watching the pain of the two of them. Ethan walked over to properly say hello. "Yes, can I help you," I said in a very sassy tone.

"I just wanted to apologize, you know for choosing sides in a battle I had nothing to do with." he said calmly. The boy was a devil, but at that moment it almost sounded like something I would say. It was so calm, and delicate.

Sulfus held Hannah, and I could tell she was breathing but very, very softly. It was like a whisper, and she was breathing for her life at this point. "Raf! Raf!" I heard from a distance. It was Urie, Miki, Dolce, Kabale, Caberia, and Gas. They all rushed over in human form asking so many questions at one I couldn't keep track of any of them.

"Guys. I will all explain in due time. Alright?" I finally had to say. They all nodded, and rushed to see Sulfus and his sister.

"Sulfus, who is this?" Kabale asked.

"This is my lost sister. I haven't seen her since we were kids. Do you remember her as a kid?" he replied.

"I only remember bits and pieces. She was very quiet, and never really had friends. Seemed like she didn't even want them," Cabiria said.

"Yeah, she was always pretty lonely." Sulfus said picking her up, and rushing her to Temptel.

When we all arrived at the Golden School, and most of us went back to our rooms minus Sulfus and I. We rushed to the infirmary. "Oh, hello. who is this." the girl said as we walked in.

"This is my sister Hannah, and my adversary Raf," Sulfus told the schools nurse.

"Oh, I just meant the angel. It's not common you see an angel in this side of the school." Sulfus rolled his eyes, looked in my direction, then smiled. Sabrina, the nurse, took Hannah and laid her down, then examined her from top to bottom.

"How did this happen exactly?" she said after a while.

"Well it's kind of a long story," I said due to Sulfus's silence, and unwilling to speak.

"Well, you can tell me later. I will take a look at her, but she really just needs some time to recover." she replied. "

Alright, thank you nurse," I said.

"What are you doing around here anyways?" she asked me.

"It's partially my fault, and I wanted to make sure she was ok," I replied

"Classic angel," was all she replied.

Sulfus walked away to his room, and me wanting to know what's on his mind followed him. He was so lost in thought I don't even think he knew I was talking to him. As we walk down the hallway, he just stops. I can see what he is thinking because it's written all over his face. He looks at me, then he has a tiny little smile come across his face. I then felt my hand come in contact with his, and I smiled too.

I was trying to hide myself through the devil's dorm hallways. I would have had a hard time explaining that one to professor Arken. I hid behind almost 20 corners trying to stay out of sight. Then I got to the end of the hallway. "FINALLY!" I said to myself over and over again.

"I heard that," Sulfus said smirking. I crossed my arms, rolled my eyes, and turned my head sideways forgetting I was still in the hallway.

"Come on, don't be like that." he said turning my face, and kissing me lightly on the lips. I walk in, and there sits Gas eating a box of brownies.

"Do you ever stop eating," Sulfus said picking up a brownie and taking a bite.

"Hey, I was going to eat that," he said still not noticing I was in the room.

"I don't think you need it," Sulfus said and laughed. Gas just got mad and started throwing a fit.

As Gas and Sulfus started to fight, I made my way over to Sulfus's bed and picked up his laptop. "I remember when I went through this," I thought to myself. "That was a stupid choice." I got on the internet, and saw headphones lying next to his bed. I grabbed them, and went to YouTube. I decided to listen to My Immortal by Evanescence. I loved the lyrics to that song. Sulfus got my into some of the less hardcore bands over the summer.

I finally heard silence in the background. Gas was looking down and his plate full of brownies, and Sulfus was sitting next to me with his arm around my waist pulling me closer and closer. "Dude, you brought and angel in here? Seriously?" he said almost in shock. I took the headphones out, and looked down smiling a little.

"Yes, and?" he said with a stern look on his face and nothing more. Gas didn't say another word. Just looked down.

I looked up at Sulfus and smiled, and he smiled back. I got so lost in those hazel eyes. They were just so dreamy. I leaned back a little to the point I was laying down, and he kissed my forehead. "Ok, guys. Come on. This is totally violating the VETO," Gas spoke.

"Inflame," I said yawning, and hit Gas out of bed. Sulfus held his hand up, and I high-fived him.

"What ever shall I do with you?" he said. I smiled, and even though it was 2 in the afternoon, I fell asleep. I was very unaware of where I was, or I would have left before I fell asleep. I had a strange dream though. That one dream is the one dream I will never forget.
