Beauty & The Beast

I was at my usual spot, behind the tool shed in the park. I was taking a drag of my cigarette when an old man arrived round the corner. I raised an eyebrow in question, maybe he was a customer. "Are you D-daniel?" He stuttered.

I took another drag before exhaling and throwing my cigarette down, stamping on it. I looked up at the man and smirked. I then showed my black horns and my black tail which swished from side to side intimidatingly. I gave him a small grin, flashing my pearly fangs. You see, I'm a demon. A demon who takes offers.

"Yes, what of it?"

"I have a d-deal." He spoke timidly.

"Intrigue me." I smirked, leaning closer.

"I'm going to die soon." I nearly rolled my eyes. Usually these went the same way, them begging for immortality or a chance to live until they're one hundred or something. I was already bored by the request and I bet it showed on my face.

"A-and I want to trade you my soul for my son's eternal protection." He spoke confidently. My interest was sparked again. I raised an eyebrow.

"Oh?" I asked, smiling thoughtfully.

"Yes, when I die, I want him to be looked after. You protect him, you get my soul." He confirmed. I stroked my chin thoughtfully.

"Hm, on one condition." I grinned, making his face fall a little. This request was asking more than others, I'd have to watch over this person and make sure they were alright at all times so I was going to make it easier for myself.

"What is it?" He asked suspiciously.

"That he works for me for six months, a bit like a slave." I smirked. The man's face contorted in dislike but he seemed to be thinking it through.

"Alright, but you aren't to harm him at all. That's our deal. You get my soul, he's your slave for six months. You don't hurt him in ANY way and he is granted total freedom when the six months are up." The man concluded.

"Is that a deal?" I asked, holding out a hand. He gulped then shakily reached to take my hand, giving it a firm shake. I snapped my fingers and a contract hovered in mid air, pen beside it. "Please sign at the bottom and tick the terms and conditions box. I doubt you'll have time to read those because seriously, who ever reads the terms and conditions?" I smirked and winked. He frowned but took the pen and scribbled his signature on the bottom.

It was sealed.

Ding dong.

I groaned and jumped to my feet, stretching and padding towards the door. I didn't bother hiding my horns and tail, whoever made me get up would see how pissed off I was. I swung the door open and my eyes widened when I saw an old man. It was the old man I had made a deal with two months previous. Behind him was a black haired man with striking blue eyes. He was quite slim but had broad shoulders and nice hips. His skin was pale but contrasted well against his dark hair. He didn't look too happy though. He was hot.

"Our deal." The old man spoke up.

"But you aren't dead yet." I frowned. The old man looked sad.

"I will today. That's when it's scheduled, I just wanted to see my son off."

"I can't believe you made that stupid deal. I'M FINE." The man growled.

"It was the only way I could make sure you were always safe!" The old man sighed. I felt like puking at the cliche words.
