Demon // Caleb Finn

11

I woke up panting heavily. I touched my neck, it felt normal. I started crying, was it all a dream?

I couldn't breath, I couldn't stop crying. I was in my room again, under the blankets. I wrapped myself around them hiding myself, still crying.

I heard footsteps coming close, but I ignored them. I didn't want to be close to Caleb. Not anymore.

I heard the door click, then the bed sink. "Jenna" I heard his voice. He sounded so sad, it almost made me feel bad. Almost.

"I'm sorry, I really am" I heard his voice crack. "I just can't control myself, I never wanted to hurt you" he got closer, I didn't move. "I wish I was normal, I really do, for you, but I can't"

I finally turned to look at him. His eyes were puffy, like he was barely gonna start crying. "Why can't you? Why can't you stop being a demon?"

"Because I sold my soul to the devil" he laughed a bit, "it's crazy, yeah, but it's true. I was tired of everything, so I did it. I have powers"

"What powers?" I interrupted him. He didn't seem mad about it, he actually laughed. "I can read peoples minds, I can erase peoples memories, can turn invisible and have the ability to cure anyone from any wound. Like I did with you. I'm really sorry" he put his hand on my neck and caressed it gentley.

"I love you" he whispered.
