Steph's eyes seemed to grow twice their size as I filled her in on everything that had happened. "So you're telling me that I got fucking possessed?! Well, that's a damn first. Whatever we contacted must've been one powerful S.O.B. No average wimpy demon would ever be able to take control of me so easily." she crossed her arms over her chest. "I'm still a little nervous that you agreed to whatever it is he wanted. He didn't even give you specifics. Hell! He didn't even give you his name."

I shrugged my shoulders, "Desperate times call for desperate measures Steph. It's not like I had time to work out the specifics...he was sort of rushing me." I used my fingers to air quote my next statement, "Said he was 'a very busy man'."

She rolled her eyes, reached for the bottle of water next to her and took a sip. "Busy my ass. Have they tried being alive in the 21st century? Balancing a social and family life, school, job, trying to stay healthy, but also not go completely crazy." she sighed, "Life is rough."

Steph popped up from her seat and stalked towards the fridge. She reached in the freezer and grabbed an entire tub of ice cream out. "I need something minty, delicious, and sweet to get this taste out of my mouth." She grabbed some spoons, sat back down on the seat next to me, and started to shovel ice cream into her mouth. "Speaking of my mouth...can you explain to me one other thing?"

"What do you have in mind?" I reached for the other spoon and grabbed myself a spoonful of deliciousness.

Steph's eyes flicked down towards my lips. "So pinch me if I'm wrong because I'm normally a pretty observant person, but have you always worn the same shade of lipstick as me? I feel like I would've noticed that before."

I almost choked on the ice cream as I swallowed. I awkwardly laughed, "Yeah about that..you may have, sorta kinda, kissed me while you were possessed." I said rushing through the last part.

She raised an eyebrow at me. "I feel like I would've remembered something like that. Was I at least a good kisser?"

I rolled my eyes and laughed. Leave it to her to always see the humor in everything. "You were fantastic. Ten out of ten, would kiss my possessed best friend again."

She mockingly flicked her hand at me and forced out her best attempt at a southern accent. "Oh you, you know just the way to a girls heart." she chuckled and soon her face grew more serious as she tapped her chin. "There are two things that I don't understand though. First, why did whatever the hell that took over my body, want to kiss you to seal the deal? Most demons will just accept a blood pact. Second, I'm still trying to figure out why my mouth tasted like I tongued down a man made out of Hot Tamales candy." After a moment of pondering to herself, she chimed in, "I suppose we can figure it out later. I currently have more pressing matters to attend to."

She looked down at her half-eaten tub of ice cream and sighed. "This needs gratuitous amounts of whipped cream."

I piped in, "And sprinkles. Don't forget the sprinkles."
