The Fine Line Between Madness and Love
"Who are you? Your eyes are the color of a demon's…..yet you seem to be too angelic to be a demon….who are you?"
An angel stood in a castle on earth.
This castle was perfect to stay in, although crumbling, the view of the ocean was wonderful, not that it was anything like she was used to in heaven, but it was still spectacular. It was a very quiet and undisturbed place, and that's why she loved it so.
This angel had the most beautiful green eyes, sparkling healthily, and short pink hair, which seemed strange for an angel, but not all too unusual. Her dress was pure white, it had long sleeves that gracefully billowed, and the dress covered her knees gently.
She now stared at the large and crumpling stone balcony, where a boy stood.
This boy had blood red eyes, the sign of a demon, yet he appeared so handsome, his black hair shaded with bits of red. The angel had no idea what or who he was. He could see her, which proved he was not human, yet he appeared human so he could not have been a devil. He was handsome enough to be an angel himself in her eyes.
He wore black pants, with a black coat on, zipped up, although it was not winter. The edges of the coat around his neck held white fur. His clothes were much more modernized for human times than hers were.
"…..Who are you, if I may ask…angel?" he replied, his red eyes fixated on her emerald eyes.
"….You know I am an angel…?...my name is Amyrenthsia Metherlence…..my angel name…..but you may call me Amy." She said, slightly surprised he knew what she was already.
"…….I am known to some as Shadow…..I'm what you might call a demon." He replied, his tone unwavering, unlike hers.
"…demon…?" she murmured, slightly stepping back.
"….I'm not like the others though. I am not interested in the so called 'redemption' they offer me. I am more of a wanderer in fact, more than anything else….." Shadow said, his gaze averting to the sky, and for a moment, Amy believed she saw some sort of longing in his eyes.
"He had to be telling the truth, for if he were a true demon, he would have already tried to kill her, or horribly violate her. Demons were usually in the shape of human, but were never beautiful as Shadow was, and they were extremely unintelligent.
"…So you are all alone?" Amy said, stepping out to get nearer to him.
"….yes."
"….I see…how sad…"
"Don't waste you pity on me…" he replied, his voice a bit cold, yet starting to speak more nicely.
"….I'm not the greatest angel….and since you are a wanderer….God will take you in!" Amy said cheerfully.
"…..No. He will never forgive me…not for what I did….."
"What you….did?"
"I-It's nothing……"
"…….please tell me…it's alright."
"….Love between angels is forbidden." He said, looking down into the ocean, as if every wave dragged him into the water's depths, suffocating him, making him loose his thoughts ever so slowly.
"…What?" Amy asked, narrowing her eyes at him in slight confusion.
"I don't wish to say anymore…" he replied.
Amy thought about the words he had spoken, and she felt a strange spark of feeling….something about Shadow. She looked into the ocean, wondering what it was that had his attention, and what would be making him so drained.
Feeling a bit bold, she suddenly grabbed his right hand, pulling him up, and out of his daze.
"…..Shadow…..don't leave this place tomorrow okay? I want to bring you something!" she said, suddenly happy.
Surprised at her sudden outburst, he calmed himself down a bit.
"….Fine…I will stay."
