I sit staring out the window watching people walk by, this job is so boring. I man looking a lot like Jisung walks in and goes to the back of the store. I look up at the mirror in the corner to watch him. His takes off his mask, turns around, then smiles and waves annoyingly, it's Jisung. I sigh and laugh a little.

"Thanks for coming, you here to buy anything or just keep my company" I ask going to where he is.

"I'm surprised your question wasn't 'how did you find me?'" He says.

"How did you find me?" I ask.

"I followed you" He replies.

"Huh, why?"

"I got bored" He says.

"Well if you get bored so easily, take my job. I'll recommend you to my boss so you can contribute a little if you're going to stay at my place." I say. 

"Alright, sounds like fun!" He exclaims excitedly. 

"Hey, hurry boy!" An older man yells from the front. I look at Jisung and shrug before going back up to the front. I bow to the man and start scanning his stuff. He throws his credit card at me. 

"Hey, be nice to him!" Jisung snaps.

"Who are you, what do you mean to him!" The man snaps back. I hand the man his bag but he isn't paying attention.

"C'mon, stop. You-"

"My boyfriend, let him be" He yells blushing hard. I blush hard and look down.

"Disgusting" He growls before snatching his bag out of my hands. He leaves the store not looking back. I look at Jisung who is looking down and scratching his neck shyly.

"Is that how feel about me?" I ask.

"Ummm... no, I mean yeah but... no, I-" 

"I see" I say angrily. I push past him to go to the back room.

"Minho wait, I didn't mean it" He says following me back. I grab my things and enter my time. I turn off the lights and leave Jisung standing in the window locked inside the store. That may have been stupid of me but someone will get him eventually.

I open the door and and angrily rip off my uniform. I throw my back at the couch. I really thought we had something together. This happens every time, and I let it happen each time. I open my bedroom door and find Jisung sitting on my bed, an angry red glow surrounds him. Horns are sticking out of his head and his nails are black and claw like.

"Get out!" I scream. He moves at an speed that no human can, he slams me against the wall and looks me in the eyes. His eyes slowly pulsing from all black to normal.  I try to move but he has me pinned.

"Listen to me" He snaps his voice doubled and demonic, fangs hanging shining in the red glow.

"You're just like every other guy. You're a monster!" I yell, I regret saying it. He looks shocked then smirks at laughs.

"You're right, I am a monster. Look at me, I have horns, claws, fangs, and these eyes." He says stepping back and sitting back down on my bed. 

"You don't really care about me do you?" I ask straightening out my shirt after he releases me.

"You know the rules that I have to follow, so do you really think I would waste this much on some worthless human?" He says, I feel bad for not thinking about it. 

"No, I guess not." I say.

"Exactly. Let me just say this. I'm the devil, I can do what I want, appear and disappear, alter memories, kill and save a life. I can get any job I want, make myself look the way I want, have all the money and fame in the world. I can gain that by just the snap of my fingers. Except I didn't do any of that, I took that boring job on my own, I didn't use my powers. I got that job because I had been watching you, I like you a lot. I was punished because of my liking for you. I know you better than anyone, I know your highs and lows. What makes you sad and what makes you happy, everything. I don't like that I know that. I came here to be with you, so don't think I don't like you" He says, I cry hard and fall to the floor. I never knew, I had no idea. It was impossible for me to know any of that. He kneels down his devil appearance disappearing and he cups my face and wipes my tears away.

"I'm so sorry" I sob as I fall into his chest. A sweat smell radiates from his body helping me to calm down.

"What happens if you decide to stay?" I ask pulling away and leaning against the wall.

"I become human, or close to human. My powers look more like magic tricks." He laughs.

"Is that what you want? To be human?" I ask.

"Yeah, kinda. I like having powers but I'm find without them" He says.

"Really?" 

"Yeah but, before we get off topic. How do you feel about me?" He asks.

"I like you" I say smiling.

"Yeah?"

"Yeah." He smiles and kisses me on my hand. I blush and hide my face in my hand. I leans forward slowly pushing me back agains the wall. His face is less than a centimeter away from mine. He looks me in the eyes then down at my lips. He presses his lips to mine for a second before there's a pounding on the door. Jisung sighs angrily. I tell him to say here and not leave until I say so. I get up and go to the door. As soon as I turn the door nob all my friends come bursting in. Changbin and Felix waltzing in behind them. They all gather on my couch and the floor.

"What's going on guys?" I ask.

"We did some research on that Jisung guy, and... well, let's just say he doesn't have the cleanest record" Hyunjin says.

"We think he's immortal, we found a report from 1590. He matches the description except he had long hair then" Woojin says.

"That's impossible, nobody is immortal" I say knowing full well that he probably is.

"There are a lot of reports of him killing people and being called 'The Devil' or 'Satan', this guy is  no good" Seungmin says. 

"Are you serious, this crazy. You guys are insane!" I stress.

"Minho, it's him. It has to be" Jeongin says.

"Alright, finish going around with your wild accusations. I'm just gonna keep turning them down" I say plopping myself on the chair facing my bedroom where Jisung has hid himself.

"He started a war and killed a lot of people, he was a horrible person" Chan.

"People change" I say. They collectively sigh.

"Minho, listen to this. In the report I read, it says that a long time ago there was a baby that was born, he killed all the doctors and set the place on fire. Only he was unharmed, any one who took care of him died. When he was kid they kicked him out, he wandered around killing everyone that came in his way. He burned villages. Then one day he disappeared and when he came back they say he had powers, he could do anything. They also called him The Reaper, basically anyone who saw him was doomed to die" Felix says.

"It's not him" I snap trying to defend him.

"I know it sounds crazy-" Changbin begins before I cut him off.

"It is crazy!" I snap angrily

"I gotta agree with him" Jisung says standing in the doorway of bedroom. The flinch and stand up and hide him.

"Stay away from him!" Changbin says holding up a cross. This is getting out of hand, I can't believe that they would do something like this. Jisung stops and stares at the cross for a second then laughs. He leans forward not breaking eye contact and wraps his fingers around it. He rips it out of his hands and throws it across the room.

"I gotta say, I'm hurt guys. Those thing's cant be true. I could never kill anyone. I never set anything on fire. Minho is mine" He snaps.
