Forbidden Love

Chapter Three

"The young girl we're looking for is named Eva. She seems to be a very lovely girl. The only issue is that her parents were-" Emma clears her throat. "Killed because they were on different sides. They couldn't be together. We all know the story." She quickly finished. "Umm—yes—well, you both should get a certain book about Eva." Aziraphale places down his teacup before rising from his seat with a smile. The devilish angel gives his friend a small smirk. The demon glares at the fluffy angel, getting the hint immediately.

"Oh well alright-" Emma paused. "Are you not coming?" This caught the angel off guard. Aziraphale stayed silent for a couple of moments as he attempted to find the best answer. "I have to look after the bookshop." He proudly smirked while leaning against his chair. "What about the others working here? Are they not free today." No matter what, Emma always had a question on top of another question. "They're all sick, sadly. It's probably the flu." The room suddenly grew silent. Emma was taking in all the information. After a moment, Emma shrugged and made her way upstairs.

Upon Emma's bedroom door closing, Crowley pinned his best friend against the wall. The demon's eyes burned with anger. "I know what you're doing. Me and Emma alone?! Are you out of your mind?" Aziraphale ignored the harsh insults being thrown his way. He only loosened Crowley's grip on his shirt. "She feels the same. Why are you so doubtful, my dear?" Aziraphale calmly asked with a reassuring smile.

"Why would she ever feel the same way? I'm a demon! The complete opposite of her! Let's not forget I'm her hereditary enemy." Crowley stated, holding in his sobs. The angel standing beside him frowned. Aziraphale grabbed ahold of Crowley's hand before giving it a small squeeze. "You're different. So, very different from every other demon. I can assure you that if you just be true about your feelings- well, Emma will surely give the devils it's do." The demon's eyes go wide. He smiles at the thought of them being together. It really wouldn't be that bad. 'An Angel and Demon together.'

The echoing sound of heels clicking on the wooden flooring alerted the men. Crowley wiped his watery eyes and straighten his horrible posture. "Well, I have packed." She motions to her small suitcase. Crowley couldn't help but smile once taking in her beautiful features. "Yes, the bookshop that contains the book will take you both two days to reach. I have already booked a hotel and a lovely dinner reservation for you both. Please try and he oysters. I heard they're scrumptious." The demon's yellow, serpent eyes lock on Emma. 'She's going to be all alone with me. I might just discorporate right here.' The wild demon thought. His mind flashed with all the possibilities.

"That sounds fun." Emma chirped with a bright smile. Aziraphale pushed the pair out of the bookshop. The angel and demon rushed over to the Bentley before buckling themselves in. "Oh, this is going to be interesting," Crowley mumbled after starting the car.
