As he walked past the alleyway, a hard grabbed him and pulled him in.

"Hey-" Haechan's voice was muffled, due to his mouth being covered my a hand.

He looked up and realized it was the hand of the demon.

"Hyuck. You summoned me." He uncovered his hand from Hyuck's mouth

"I- did what..?!"

"You summoned me. You thought suicidal thoughts, thoughts of murder."

"Does this happen with everyone? Everyone sees their demon?"

"No. I'm the only demon being summoned."

"Okay... then what do you want?"

"It seems like I'll be summoned quiet often. How about I get to know you. Let's get some drinks or-"

"Do you realize, you're a DEMON. Looking all red like that, wings, horns, you'll look like a fool."

The demon leaned closer and whispered in Haechan's ear, "watch this..." The demon changed form. He looked completely like a human.

"Whoa... Demon, how did you-"

The demon grabbed his hand and led him across the street. "The name's Jungwoo."

"Hey!" Haechan pulled his arm away from Jungwoo. "Someone might see."

"See what? Us holding hands? What's wrong with that?"

"Well... they'll think we're-"

"What's wrong with that?" Jungwoo repeated. "What's wrong with this..?" Jungwoo came close to Hyuck, looking down at him. He grabbed his ass.

"H- hey!!" Haechan was mad, and blushing. "Stop that!"

Jungwoo smiled. "Okay, fine. Follow me." Hyuck reluctantly followed behind.

Jungwoo led him to an expensive restaurant. Hyuck looked around whispered to Jungwoo. "Do you even have money? I don't, how do you expect to pay?"

"I have my ways." Jungwoo replied, as 100,000 won appeared into his hand. Haechan's eyes widened. 

"You have pretty eyes." Jungwoo remarked.

"Huh? What did you say?"

Jungwoo shook his head. "Nothing."

The boys soon were seated and given menus to order.

"I want bulgogi!" Haechan said.

"You're so childish. We're at an expensive restaurant and you're getting bulgogi?" Jungwoo asked. "I'm definitely getting sundubu-jjigae. Haven't had it in forever. And that's in literal terms. Demon things, am I right?"

Haechan pouted. "Whatever. I'm still getting bulgogi. And some rice."

The boys ordered and waited for their food to arrive. Haechan was scrolling through memes on his phone, when Jungwoo grabbed it.

"What are you laughing so hard about? Is this all you people do these days? Scroll through these... mehms?"

"They're memes, and yes, this is all humans do these days."

"Whatever. Jungwoo stuffed Haechan's phone in his pocket."

"Hey-"

"Now we socialize. What's that next to your eye?"

"It's a mole you idiot. Can you give me my phone back now?"

"No. Okay, now you ask a question."

"You're so old school. Anyway, where are you from? Do you live in hell or something?"

"Naw, I'm stuck on your shoulder all day. I've learned many things. Like the word 'finna' and I know what a 'dick' looks li-"

"OKAYYYYY. You ask a question..." Haechan said, uncomfortably. So he knows what my... looks like..?!

"You know, I can hear what you think."

"Ugh, can you just give me my phone already?"

"Under one condition."

"...which is?"

"I'll tell you when there aren't people around, or else you'll get mad like earlier."

Haechan was starting to think this demon was gay. "Okay, fine, jeez."

The food soon arrived. "YES FINALLY!!" Haechan yelled immediately regretting that decision, but he didn't care anymore. He wanted his bulgogi. Now.

Haechan ate all the beef fast and savored every bite.

"Mmmmmm~ This is so good! Wanna try?"

"You look like you're eating bulgogi for the first time."

"It tastes like how my mom made it." Haechan remarked. Jungwoo recalled the memory, when Haechan's parents died. Jungwoo has been with Haechan his entire life, on that same shoulder. Until for some strange reason he was summoned onto the planet, able to walk, and to feel and touch things. It wasn't strange only for Haechan, to see his own demon, but for Jungwoo as well.

The two boys finally finished. Haechan's mouth ending up covered with food. Jungwoo immediately wiped Haechan's face with his thumb while Haechan stared at him. His heart was beating so fast, but he didn't know why.

okay sorry to interrupt but i reached 666 words at the end of that sentence and i just wanted to say that lol iehfejnfejf ok sry let's continue

Haechan, with wide eyes, stared at Jungwoo.

"Is there something wrong?" Jungwoo asked.

"Why did you-" Haechan took a breath "Why do you act like this?"

Jungwoo smiled. "Why not?"

Haechan sighed. "Okay, let's go home, I have homework and it's already late. Oh, and by the way, are ya gonna gimme my phone?"

"Remember the condition?"

"Ugh, why is there a condition for my own phone?"

"Let's go home and then talk."
