Why do I love you? (Darkiplier x Reader)

12

I smiled softly at the warm around me as my senses started to come back. I tucked my face into whatever was in front of me, trying to find warmth only to have a heavy limb lay softly on my hip. I finally decided to open my eyes, to be greeted by Dark's bare chest. I felt my face rise in temperature as I realized the situation i'm in, and memories of yesterday flooded my mind. I wanted to jump back and push Dark away, but I felt like that would be too childish for me to do. And he's also a demon, who knows what he's like when he just wakes up. Instead I laid there, waiting for him to wake up. I looked up at him. He seems so calm in his sleep, you don't see the slightly stress in his eyes that he always has. I didn't stop myself from bringing my hand up and cupping his cheek, softly caressing my thumb and taking in every little feature of his face. My hand gently moved down from his cheek to his neck, my finger tips tracing over his jawline and going down to his collarbone. I don't know why I'm not stopping myself. My fingertips went down farther, tracing over his abs and muscles. Then I went back up, keeping my fingers on the muscle lines. I soon got carried away and memorized by his torso as I continued tracing.

"What are you doing?" His deep, groggy morning voice asked. I felt chills going down my spine. Holy crap, he has a sexy morning voice (XD). I bit my lip and looked up at him. He looked back down at me, his hair all messy in his face and his eyes slightly squinted.

"I-I W-Wasn't doing a-anything!" I stuttered. He chuckled and moved his arm from around me.

"I'm just teasing you. Calm down." He said as he sat up from the bed. He stretched before pushing the blankets off and sliding off the mattress. I let out a sigh of relief and slid off also. He pulled on some black jeans over his gym shorts, then pulled on a tight black shirt.

"Where are my normal clothes?" I asked.

"Somewhere in the dirty laundry. You'll have to wear my clothes." He said. I groaned at this. He just rolled his eyes and continued what he was doing. "I need to do the morning routine for the King." he said. He then grabbed the remote and handed it to me. "You can watch TV or you can go hang out with the other demons, just make sure you pick the demon you hang out with wisely." He said in the middle of a yawn. He then grabbed a comb and started combing out his hair. "Oh, have this too." He said as he handed me a plain black hoodie.

"Why can't I just wear the flannel?" I asked. He walked up to me and gently grabbed the collar of the flannel. He buttoned up the top one and frowned.

"I don't want you wearing this in front of other demons. You can wear it to bed, but not in front of others." He ordered.

"Why can't a wear this flannel in front of the others?" I questioned. He paused, staring at the flannel on me.

"Cause I said so." He said before letting go and walking to put his shoes on.

"Don't be one of those people~" I whined. He chuckled at that and continued what he was doing. I smirked as an idea came to my head, that I might regret later. I turned my back to him and unbuttoned the flannel, letting it drop from my shoulders and onto the floor. I then leaned over, grabbed the hoodie, and pulled it on. I turned around to his face a dark shade of red as his eyes wondered the room as if he didn't just see that. I crawled back onto the bed, having trouble because of how big the shorts were. It's not like they slipped of my hips or anything, but they got in the way a lot. I then used the remote to turn on the TV and decided to watch the Jim news. The first image was him standing outside my college, talking about some things. I then felt a pang in my heart. Yeah, it's only been one day, but even so, I couldn't help but miss Aliky. "Hey Dark?" I asked. He stood up and walked over to the bed, leaning on the frame.

"Mhm?" He hummed.

"When can I go back home? Why am I even here?" I asked. He looked up at me with a look that was easy to tell that he was having a debate in his mind.

"You can go back for visits. Why? Are you home sick?" He asked.

"I miss Aliky." I responded softly.

"I'll take you to go see Aliky in a couple of hours." He said with a smile.

"Really?!" I asked. I felt my own face light up as I sprung up onto my knees. He smiled bigger at this.

"Of course, I'm not going to keep you from seeing your best friend." He said. I smiled cheerfully and wrapped my arms around his neck. He laughed and hugged me back. "Okay, Okay, I need to go see the King now. Stay good." He said, grabbing my arms and moving them.

"Stay safe." I replied with a smile.

"There's some sticky notes there, if you're going to hang out with a demon, put their name there so I know how to find you." He ordered.

"You got it." I said with a smile. He smiled back softly before leaving and closing the door behind him.

"Wait! Dark!" I yelled. He opened the door back open and poked in.

"Yeah?"

"What do they mean when they say you're the 'second-hand king'?" I asked. His face twisted into concern as he looked down at the ground.

"Who said that?" He asked. I bit my lip slightly when I heard the growl underneath his voice.

"Just some demons that I walked by." I lied. He gave me a small little nod.

"That's something that you don't need to know about." He growled before shutting the door. Using a bit more force than needed. I'm not staying in this room. I need answers and I have plenty of demons to ask. I slid of the bed and grabbed a sticky note. 'Dear Darkey Sparkey, I'm leaving the room to go hang out with...'
