Its been almost a week since you recovered from the little Lucifer incident and things are getting back to normal. Since you were still a bit weak from the injury, Vaggie gave you a week off from work. Charlie had felt a bit guilty for you getting hurt so you'd spent a while talking things out with her.

Your both back to being besties now and your very relieved. Its true everyone had been a bit stunned when the fact that you were an angel was revealed. But they took it better than you'd thought they would. You still hide your wings now for safe measures but everyone seems cool with the fact that your a merciless exterminator angel.

I guess they've seen a lot of killers and I'm nothing new. I mean, Alastor's a serial killer and their find with him.

You'd spent most of the week in bed. Mostly because Vaggie insisted you rest. Angel would occasionally come to your room to give you company and also to bring you some tea or soup or something. It was entertaining seeing Angel slowly walk towards you holding the cup or plates in his shaking spider hands. He'd literally get mini heart attacks each time the contents of the bowl almost spilled a little. Niffty would also do periodic clean ups of your room, making sure it was nice and clean. Even the non sentimental Husk would check in on you sometime. It made you happy knowing there were people who cared for you.

The only person who hadn't come to see you all week was Alastor. That was what worried you. You'd expected him to be the first to check in on you after all that had happened between the two of you. You were a slight bit worried about him. But to be honest, you weren't worried for him. You were disappointed......... For some reason you were sad that he didn't come to see you and you didn't know why.

Why do I feel this way? I feel miserable but.......I'm fine. Was I.......falling in lov-.

You cut your own thoughts off and shake your head. You sit back up in bed and grab the book you were reading from your bedside table. You get back to reading and you soon become oblivious to the world around you. You spend a few hours reading and now start to feel a bit sleepy. The sun outside was beginning to set and you could see the golden rays of light slip in through the curtains. You put the book aside and look at the window. The sunlight making slits of blinding light as the curtains moved around. You were in a sort of dreamy mood and you slide into bed, laying flat now. Still facing the curtains and watching them dance you let your hand dangle off the edge of the bed. You fell asleep in no time. The room was silent except for the howling of the wind.

Suddenly a pair of red glowing light flickered in the corner of your room. A tall figure then emerged from the shadows and walked towards your bed. You were fast asleep and completely oblivious to the world around you. The figure then bent down and looked at your face. The man was Alastor, he'd probably come to check in on you.

(Alastor's POV)

(Y/n) looks so peaceful when asleep. I bent down to get a closer look at her innocent little smile. A few strands of her (h/l) (h/c) were on her face and I gentle brushed them off. Her skin felt so soft.......so tender. I couldn't help myself anymore. I leaned into her face and planted my lips upon her's. A delirious feeling shot through my spine. Her lips tasted sweet. She did like sweet things. I pulled back and let out a soft sigh, then I gently brushed my hands through her soft (h/c) hair. She shuffled a little in bed as my hands reached near her ears.

"I'll keep you safe (y/n). I won't loose you again.", I whispered under my breath.

She suddenly opened her eyes when I said this. I must have disturbed her sleep. I quickly used my shadow manipulation abilities and hid myself, just in time before she could completely see me.

(Your POV)

I woke up to the sound of whispers near me. It alarmed me and I opened my eyes to a blurry figure in front if me. It only lasted for a split second before disappearing into the shadows.

That was strange. I thought to myself. Who was that? Was that even a person? Maybe I'm just tired and seeing things. I should just get some rest.

I decide its just my mind playing tricks on me and go back to bed. It's pretty late and I'm not really hungry so I didn't bother having dinner. I got comfortable in bed and close my eyes to sleep when I felt my lips were slightly wet. I licked my lips and they tasted odd.

"Strange. I don't remember having any..........b-blood?", I said to myself in a bit of shock. I could've sworn it tasted like blood. That was creepy.

But I felt far too tired to go into deeper investigation on the matter. It was probably nothing. I was........really tired. I closed my eyes once again and feel fast asleep.

(Narrator's POV)

As you went into deep slumber, Alastor was still watching over you from the shadows. He didn't dare make any sounds for he couldn't risk getting discovered. How would he explain his presence there? Once he was sure that you were sound asleep, he moved out of the shadows and walked to the door. He slowly opened it, careful not to make a ruckus. Then just before leaving he turned to you one last time and said something that was barely audible. "Goodnight my darling. I'll always be here for you."
