taming the demon in me

6

After awhile of walking we finally got to the lake and go over to the dock over looking the lake. Zeke sits down taking off his shoes and dipping his feet into the icy cold clear water. I set down the bag on the dirt and walk over to him and do the same he did.  We sit there in silence for a little looking out over the cool clear water kicking our feet in it making small ripples in the calm water enjoying the small silence. The water feels nice and cool against my skin....maybe if I just nudge him into the water I think to myself. I slowly lean over to him and put my hand on his back; he looks at me raising an eyebrow, but I only shrug him off and then quickly push him in to the water. He comes back up gasping for air and gives me a death glare; I only sit on the dock giggling like crazy as he pulls him self up onto the dock . He gets up onto the dock and gives me a wicked smile slowly walking closer to me step by step soaking wet.

I slowly start to scoot away catching on to what he planed on doing, but he then rushed at me. He held me up against him getting my shirt all wet, and then threw me into the water with him. I sunk to the bottom of the water opening my eyes to see the stars dimly though the dark water. It was beautiful. Seeing the moonlight shimmering through the water as it fluttered down until the light could no longer reach was really peaceful. This new vision was really nice at night, especially under water. I've always loved the water, something about how freely I could move through it. I lay on the bottom of the water admiring the light when I feel myself being pulled up and out of the water. I look over as I'm being pulled up and see Zeke looking at me angrily. 

          "What was that? You scared the shit out of me !" Zeke yells at me when we come to the surface.

          "what do you mean? I was only under the water for a few seconds!" I yell pushing him off of me and swimming a bit farther out.

          "How about you try 10 fucking minuets? I thought you drowned or something!" Zeke yells back at me swimming over to me.

          At that comment I felt something snap inside of me. I was no longer in control and looked over at Zeke shooting him a death glare, but the glare of course wasn't an action of my own. Dally, my demon, was now in control and she wasn't going anywhere. Not sure how I knew it's name, it just kinda came to me. As if it was something I already knew. I could feel the rage and anger coursing though me as Zeke kept swimming closer and closer to me. I try to swim backwards but he just keeps coming closer. I tried to hold  Dally back but she was like a wild animal thrashing in my hands and wiggling free. It was no use and too late and she exploded and started to yell and go off on Zeke. I felt the water around me quickly get hot and start to boil as Dally finally decided to speak. Was this water boiling a part of my powers? Dally was so smooth and calm but held a dangerous venom to her tone. "Do you truly think that I would let her die so easily? Who do you take me as? Think to yourself this, if she is to die I go back to Hell, and if this was to happen I would be a disgrace. I haven't even had her for a year yet nor done anything worth dying yet." Dally yelled with so much anger in her I could feel it myself.  I could feel my wings coming out and my fangs slightly poking into my lip as she clenched my jaw.

Zeke stood there looking a bit shocked. He closed his eyes taking a deep breath. When he reopened his eyes they where glowing brightly and I honestly was a bit scared. I hadn't seen his demon yet, but if his father was Alejandro I could only imagine what power his demon would hold. Zeke lets out the breath he had been holding and slowly looks up to me unclenching his hand.

"Sorry then, please excuse me oh so high demon for being worried as I had been yet to discover the power in witch you posses." Zeke says putting on a devilish smile. "Sophia, you should try to get her under control, even the water is getting a bit hot." Zeke says swimming back to the dock.

"And how exactly am I supposed to do that! I'm still new to this you know!" I yell feeling just a little ticked off. Dally went silent now, and I could think clearly again.

 I stay in the water swimming around just to be sure Avery doesn't come back deciding she wants to kill him. I'm under the water looking up at the stars when I start to feel exhaustion take over my body, so I  decide to swim back to the dock. I get out of the water using my flames to dry me and my clothes off. Dally's little out burst gave me just enough of the heat sensation to put two and two together on how to use it. I quietly tiptoe into the tree house incase Zeke had fallen asleep, but sadly I wasn't so luck to have him go to sleep and drop his sour mood. He was sitting on a branch upside down with an uneasy look on his face. Zeke dosent really react or make a move to say anything, and i feel a little uncomfortable. It wasn't his fault anything happened he was only trying to help me after all. I let out a sigh walking over to him and sit down in front of him. He makes eye contact with me and I can see that he was still concerned.

"Hey umm I'm sorry for what happened out there...you didn't really do anything wrong." I say not really sure what to say.
