Heaven AND Hell

1: Damien's promise

Dear diary,

It's Lisa, I'm back hehe.
I know that this is not my usual time for a diary entry but i have to tell you what just happened.
So, Damien just came over (of course he broke my window again but that's okay, I know that my window is too small for huge demonic wings like his anyway) and he brought me a present!
At first he told me to close my eyes but I couldn't control myself and peeked at him pulling a necklace out of his pocket. Can you believe that? A demon, who promised me he would never be nice since he doesn't want to be like those "wannabe angel idiots" brought his best friend a necklace!
I was so happy that i couldn't do anything but squeal, which made him notice that i peeked at him so he just told me to turn around so he can put it on for me.

It's such a pretty necklace~
It has a little demon wing on it, it kinda looks like his!
I don't know why I'm so hyped about this but can you believe it?!

Oh no, I think he's coming back. I'll talk to you soon!

"What are you doing?", he looked over my shoulder onto my bed, where i just pushed my diary under my pillow

"W-what? Nothing. I was making my bed", i smiled at him innocently as he started to hide his horns and wings again, "Soooo.. Why did you break your promise?"

He looked at me, confusion washed over his face

"The promise. Don't you remember?"

Flashback

Damien and I were sitting on the swings of our favourite place.

The abandoned playground.

"Lisa..?"

"Huh?", i turned my head to him, smiling as I saw him cutely scratching the back of his head, his curly dark brown hair wrapping around his tiny fingers, "Yes?"

"Did you.. ever think of me as not sympathetic?"

"I mean.. you in fact are a demon so..-", I was gonna giggle but i saw him looking at the ground. "What's wrong?"
Little 10-year old Damien is so sensitive and cute..

"I don't want you to think that I don't like you.. You know that you're my bestest best friend. The best friend that I could ever have. You even are the only one that knows my secret, except for my family."

I nodded and smiled. "I know that I am, Damien. You indeed are a nice guy, for an evil demonic creature" Now I started giggling and he chuckled

"You know.. I never want to be like those wannabe angel idiots. They are just trying to be what they aren't. They are just humans. Humans are not supposed to be too nice and just polite and..-", he made a fake gagging sound and we both laughed.

"Promise me that you will stay the way you are then, Dam.", I smiled and held out my pinky for him to intertwine it with his'.

"promised.", he did and pulled off his best evil laughter
"I will never ever be nice and all fake-polite, I will be myself. Dark, mysterious and evil."

Flashback end

"Oh.. that? I still am evil, missy!", he tilted his head down and looked at me with evil glowing eyes while I just giggle at him.

"Of course, Mister-I-just-gave-my-best- friend-a-beautiful-necklace-to-show-her-how-much-I-love-her.", I started smirking at him.

"You little-", we started laughing as he chased me around the house, cursing at me, but I know that he doesn't mean it.
In fact, he just is... An evil little demon.

"Do you.. wanna sleep here tonight so we can start the new semester together?", I smirked at him, knowing how much he likes staying at my place since it's not as gigantic and confusing as his family's mansion.

"I.. would love to", he lightly smiled as I looked at him with my mouth wide open

"What? You never heard me speak like that?", he chuckled,"I need to adapt to the others so that my demon self is not that obvious"
"Come on! You didn't do that the last school years either!", I squinted my eyes at his behavior, just to be pushed down the bed and get tucked in by him.

"Goodnight, my little angel~"

"Pfft", I giggled. He changed a lot...

I watched him lay down and roll up on my big bean bag, his now visible wings wrapping around his muscular, yet tiny body before I closed my eyes and went to sleep.
