taming the demon in me

4

I go over to the bathroom and clean off my face. When I come back out Zeke leads me into the hallway and down some stairs. We walk in the kitchen and I sit on a stool in front of a marble counter top.

          "What do you want to eat?" Zeke asked looking over to me.

           "Eh whatever you feel like making will due I-" I was cut off as Alejandro came into the room quickly walking by while typing away on his phone. He sets a plastic shopping bag down in front of me as he passes. "There's a change of cloths and sunglasses in their for you!" Alejandro yells walking out of the room.

         I look at Zeke confused and he just shrugs. I grab the bag and walk back to the room after telling Zeke that I was getting changed. When I got in the room and closed the door, I looked in the bag and pull out the clothes. A simple tank top that's grey with a zip-up hoodie that's purple. Not really my color, I much prefer dark red or maroon, but the hoodie is fur lined to I can't complain too much. Lastly i pull  out a pair of matching grey joggers out of the bag. Safe bet not knowing my size to just go with something that has a loose fit. I started to take off off my clothes when my shirt got stuck on my back. I started to struggle and fell over knocking a whole bunch of things down off the nightstand, making a loud crashing noise. The lamp now on the floor is shattered,  "FUCK!" I yelled falling down onto the floor, knocking more down with me. I can almost garentee that I will have a couple bruises on my body tomorrow.

           Just as I started struggling to get off of the death trap called a shirt Zeke came rushing through the door slamming it against the wall in his hast. He stood their trying to hold back a laugh while a bright red blush came on his face. I gave him a death glare telling him to make himself useful and to help me. He walks over to me and helps me up from the floor.  "You need to relax and draw the energy of your wings in so that they go back into your back." He says glancing at all the stuff I knocked down. I then close my eyes and try to draw my wings back into my back. As I did this, my back started to burn a little, like the night I changed but not nearly as intense, then poof! They where gone. I then turn around and take off my shirt putting on the other one while Zeke was distracted.

        "Umm if I wanted my wings back do I just do the same thing only you know....backwards?" I ask turning around to see Zeke picking up all the stuff I knocked down off of his dresser.

            "Yeah pretty much." He said looking  up at me while picking up the lamp now in pieces.  

        We then walked back down stairs him still laughing at the fact that I couldn't get my shirt off. When we got to the kitchen I see a huge pile of waffles with a matching large pile of bacon next to it! I immediately run over to a plate and start eating the delicious food. As I'm eating, Alejandro walks in the room with his car keys in his hand and my sunglasses "After you are done I'm driving you home." Alejandro said standing next to the front door.

               "B-but what about my parents!?! They're going to fucking kill me!" I yell at him after I finished my food.

                "Look I only kept you here long enough to see if you could survive the shift and not go insane," he said with a straight face," What happens afterwards is not my problem." With that said he walked out the door to the car knowing that I was done eating. I let out a sigh and got up walking to the front door saying bye to Zeke. Zeke says bye back, and i make my way after Alejandro, following him outside. After opening the door my eyes are quickly met with a burning and stinging sensation so intense that i couldn't open my eyes back up. Quickly I put on the new sunglasses and realize these are not your typical sunglasses. The glasses have an extremally dark tint. It almost looks like night time with them on. "You have heightened senses now! Your eyes are going to be more sensitive, along with other things like hearing. Alejandro says getting into the car.

 I sit in the car wearing my new black sunglasses. We sat in the car without the radio playing and it was extremely awkward. After about a good 20 minutes, I decided to start a conversation.  "You know, you and your son look compleatly different? I mean you have black hair while he has short honey brown hair? And you have red eyes while he has bright purple almost lavender silver eyes? And u have a pail face like a vampire while his has a slight tan and a little bit of freckles..." I said trailing off at the end.

                    "What are you trying to accomplish? I mean I know that we look different and I also know what my son looks like thank you very much." Alejandro said giving me a glance.

                  "I don't know....it's awkward you won't let me turn the radio on and I'm trying to make conversation." I tell him fidgeting with my hands.

                  "Doesn't matter because we're at your house now soo, you know get out." He said unlocking the doors and pointing out. 

"Wait what do you want me for? Why did you change me? What am i supposed to do now?" I ask feeling my voice go up as i start to freak out, knowing that once i go in the house there's no avoiding what's going to happen.

Alejandro lets out a sigh with a frown coming onto his face, " I'll tell you that later, for now just go home. Get more acclimated to your new body and friend in your head. I'll call you later to check up but I wont contact you again until I need you."

I look at him confused. He didn't answer anything, just left me more confused. Alejandro then gets out of the car and comes over to my side. He pulls open the door, Quickly grabbing my arm really hard and pulling me out of the car. "I don't have time for this, get out. I'll tell you more when it's time for you to know more." With that he dropped me onto the ground and went to get back into the car.
