Can You Feel My Heart (If I Had One)?

The Reveal

For PTX_Pentaholic99

A/N: If you are doing a cover for the sequel of YATIHIF it's due by this Saturday!

I was trying to catch my breath after Carter's random spurt of shoving me on the bed and having his way with me. The demon had his head against my chest, still straddling my waist. I think that's what I love about being a demon. Sex can last for hours. It's so much fun. I wonder if a certain human could last that long. Carter's hand suddenly went to my throat.

"I received a very weird deal a few days ago."

"Really?" He put his lips next to my ear.

"Don't give me that shit Scott. I will end you in seconds." I sat up, my hands keeping both of us up.

"You weren't here. I needed someone and I needed them now." Three days. I was avoiding Mitch. I didn't see a point in making the poor human anymore confused than he already seemed to be. Confused and scared.

"Never do that again. Downstairs won't like this when I explain my situation."

"You're a demon. Lie." Carter's eyes narrowed.

"You are incredibly sexy right now." He glanced over at the clock. "Unfortunately it's time for school." He got off of my lap and went over to the closet to find some clothes.

Sometimes I was disgusted with my master. Carter would take on living hosts. He's fueled on their suffering. And the boy he's in right now always screams for help. I can hear the shrill voice screaming 'help' while we have sex. Not that I want to have sex with a dead body but I feel like it would be better. I wouldn't have a boy praying to god to save him from us and pleading for the pain of demonic possession to be relieved.

"Can I see that magazine?" I handed Carter the fashion magazine that he had on the nightstand. He was still stark naked but just give it a couple seconds. He snapped his fingers and his outfit was copied from paper to real life. "You're taking me to school today." I didn't argue on the subject. I just got dressed and started driving. I could tell when he was pissed. Short answers, side tracking to sex, and ordering me with snappy sentences.

"We're here early." I parked in one of the front parking spots.

"Good." Next thing I know, Carter had his legs on either side of my body. "Tell me about your human."

"My human?" I knew what he was talking about but I didn't want him to know. He let it slip when he got drunk that if anyone caught my attention that he would kill them. If my heart starts back up because I fell in love with a human, he's out a demon he can order around. Or use whenever he wants. He was biting my neck in the most painful way possible.

"Mitch?" I grabbed Carter's shoulders and shoved him back. He caught himself before he hit the horn.

"Don't say his name."

"Young, naïve little seventeen year old human." He unbuttoned my jeans. "I wonder what he would do if he found out that you are one of the monsters that go bump in the night."

"Carter, stop."

"You don't order me." I grunt as he slammed me back against the seat. "You think about him when you're with me. You think he's gorgeous. You shouldn't leave your mind so open Scott. I know everything you want to do to that boy."

"I'm not in the mood."

"Your body is disagreeing." He pulled a lever so the seat reclined back. "So let's have sex in your car."

"Carter, you're crazy. What if someone walks by or happens to see us or hears you?"

"I set your clock forward an hour." I rolled my eyes. I wasn't in the mood for this. "Come on. We haven't had sex in a car since nineteen-eighteen." I could hear the boy Carter was possessing begging me to say no. I wish I could apologize. Because no matter what, I couldn't say no to Carter. He was my master. He gave my child and wife another life. A better life.

"Are you happy now?" Carter was back in the passenger seat and we both had our clothes back on. I put the seat back in its rightful place, fixing my clothes.

"Very." We sat there in silence as people began to file in the gates. I shifted, making sure it was presentable when I saw Mitch with his friends. "He thinks about you often. He is right now." I saw Mitch glance around the parking lot like he was looking for someone. "He actually keeps his thoughts pretty hidden."

Normally I would be able to read a human's mind but I feel like Mitch has everything hidden. Even from himself. Usually if I couldn't read a mind from far away, I could once I got closer. But no matter what, Mitch was blocking me out.

"Hey." I whispered in Mitch's ear. The boy gasped, whipping around at the sound of my voice. He smiled.

"Hi Scott." His smile fell. "I haven't seen you in awhile." I noticed the coffee cup already in his hand. So I couldn't walk with him.

"I've been busy." I watched his teeth scrap over his bottom lip in thought.

"Do you want to walk me home?"

"You're not going to school today?" He shook his head, beginning to walk away from the school.

"My grandma is getting sick." He was looking down at the ground. My eyes went towards his free hand. I wonder if I could hold it. I haven't held hands with someone in almost three hundred years. But I couldn't. He put his hand in his pocket. "You're so awkward." I almost could feel a blush. It wasn't possible though.

"I don't know how to act."

"If you want to hold my hand, just hold my hand." I glance nervously at his hand that he had taken out.

"I don't think I should." He dropped his hand to the side and we continued to walk in a comfortable silence. I linked my pinky with his. I saw him try to suppress his smile. God he was adorable. But spending a long span of time with Carter made my thoughts veer towards sex. The things that I would do to Mitch's delicate body. His smooth skin. To make that soft voice break the silence.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing." I didn't know what to say. I didn't even know what to do. I had my pinky linked with his but I didn't want to hold his hand completely. I was trying not to make him confused.

"So this is my home. Want to come in?" He was standing in front of the door. I found myself mesmerized by his lips moving. He was....

"So beautiful."

"What?" Instead of trying to explain why I said beautiful out loud, I moved forward to kiss him. He opened the door and we stumbled into his house. I had no idea where we are going. Suddenly Mitch shoved me back.

"I'm sor-" I stopped when I couldn't walk forward. "Fuck!" My eyes traveled up to Mitch. He looked panicked. I went back to staring at the devil's trap for any flaw.

"I fucking knew it."
