(Aaron's Pov)

   I was sitting on the couch with James holding me close not even paying attention to the show we were watching.

   "You know we can't keep doing this right?" He whispered in my ear.

   My smile broke and my face went pail "W-what?" I asked as my heart speed up.

   "I said . . ."

   "I know what you said." I cut him off trying not to let the tears escape my eyes. "I want to know what you mean by it." My heart kept at the same rate. I was looking at my hands. What did I do wrong? Does he hate me for being a demon? Is this a Joke?

   I was shaking at this point. How could he do this? Holding back tears as best I could I asked "Why?" My voice cracked.

   "Look at you. You're a pathetic excuse for a demon, anyway it wouldn't matter either way, because I will have to kill you like all the other disgusting demons." he got up from the couch and left everything went dark.

   "No" I sobbed "don't leave me!"

   Shadows surrounded me "you're one of us Aaron." One of the shadows said

   "Don't fight what you really are." Another shadow spoke.

   Getting closer I saw that they're people, but they can't be humans. Demons. They're demons. "Get away." I thrashed "I'm not one of you. Leave me alone."

   "Soon you will see that it's not that easy to deny your true-self."

   "Aaron . . ."

  "Aaron wake up."

   My eyes shot open I was back in James room, and according to the alarm clock it was 3:34 am. Looking back at James my eyes filled with tears. He didn't say anything he just held me trying to sooth me as best he could. I cried into his chest while grabbing the blankets around him just to make sure he wouldn't leave like in the dream.

   After a while I finally calmed down, but didn't fall asleep. James's chest and blankets were soaked with my tears, but he didn't care about his that at the moment.

   "What was it about?" James asked breaking the silence as he moved some hair out of my face.

   "I . . . um." Stuttering over my words trying to tell him.

   "It's okay you don't have to tell Me." he soothed.

   "B-but I want to." I said looking in his eyes. "In the dream you . . . you were holding me on the couch a-and well you said that we can't do this anymore." My eyes started to water again, "you called me a pathetic excuse for a demon and left me. It doesn't sound all that bad when I say it out loud but it really hurt me. Then shadows surrounded me, but they were demons not just shadows." I took a breath trying to calm myself "They kept saying I was one of them and that it will be hard to deny who I really am. I'm not one of them I'm nice, weak, small, I don't have muscle." Aaron stooped me.

   "No, you're not like them, but Aaron one day." he paused "one day when you're demon instinct kick in it will be hard for you."

   "Will you help me through it?" looking at him with hope in my eyes. I know I'm a demon, but I'm not a bad one I can be good. I know I can. I hope I can. Tears are still coming from my eyes.

(James Pov)

   "Shh it's okay I wouldn't leave you Aaron no matter what happens." That may have sounded cheesy, but it's the truth I'm never going to leave him.

   I rubbed his back soothing him some more calming him down. He finally fella-sleep two-hours ago, but me well I'm wide awake. Thinking about getting up did cross my mind, but there is no way I'm leaving Aaron alone after that dream. So, I'm lying in bed just looking around my room and also looking at Aaron a bit. Well more than a bit I couldn't take my eyes off him he's just so perfect. Plus he's adorable when he sleeps. His body in cradled in my arms. He seems so peacefully I could just stare at him for hours.

   The sun started peeking through the window and I realized that I stayed up all night just watching Aaron sleep. After around 10ish he started to steer, Opening his eyes and just seeing me made him smile which I was glad.

   "Good morning cutie." I whispered in his ear.

   Blushing he said "G-good morning."

   "Are you better now?" I asked rubbing his back.

   He nodded into my chest, I could feel the smile on his face.

   "Thank you." He said with his face still in my chest.

   "For what?"

   "For not leaving me."

   Instead of saying anything I just held him for a while longer as I rubbed his back some more. Why can't this be easy? Why do I have to be the keeper? Why didn't I just ignore that stupid door? I could be living a normal life. Instead I have to fight demons. Although even if I didn't open that door sooner or later my parents would have had to tell me.

   "Mm . . . "Aaron mumbled.

   I guess he must have fallen back asleep maybe I should wake him up since it's almost noon and I'm starving. I shook him a little "Aaron wake up I'm hungry."

   "You know you could get food without waking Me." he replied

   "Yeah, but I didn't want to leave you baby" I kissed his head and added a puppy dog pout. Truth is I wanted to spend more time with him and I can't do that if he's sleeping all day. He smiled while kissing my cheek.

"We should get some breakfast." Getting up from the bed I grab a blue t-shirt from my dresser and some shorts.

   Aaron found some of my clothes instead of putting his own on and I have to say he looks freaking adorable in my clothing, because there a bit bigger then him. Grabbing him I pulled him into me. "I love how you look in my clothes." He giggled into my chest. "Come on let's get some food."

   We walked down the stairs to the brightly light kitchen with my half-awake parents sitting at the table drinking coffee. Do they ever go to work? I swear I never see them go to work, It's either there here or there not. Grabbing Aarons hand I pulled him to the fridge to get some breakfast

   "Good morning." Dad said to me taking a sip of coffee "How did you sleep? I heard someone screaming 'don't leave me.'" he looked at me worried my eyes went to Aaron he didn't look like he was paying attention because he was looking out the window staring at a wolf.

   "Are you guys okay?" Mom asked getting Aarons attention.

   "What?" He looked so confused at this point completely oblivious to what my dad said about hearing him screaming last night.

  "I uh had a bad dream, but I'm better now." he said

   I sat down next to Aaron at the table for breakfast. "So I have a question, why is there a wolf in our yard?" I asked 

   "That's Aidan the boy we were talking about before." my mom clarified, saying it as if it was no big deal at all.

   "What?" I stare at them like there completely crazy.

   "Yeah, Aidens a wolf." My dad says getting up to get more coffee "I thought you would know by now"

   "Well obviously not."
