Summary: AU before TC1. Lorraine is possessed by a little music box. Music: Beautiful Wish-Mermaid Melody
Music Box
Chapter 1
Ed ran a hand through his brown hair, feeling exhausted. His gray eyes stared at the window, seeing the nightfall, and then he looked at the book with a beautiful black cover and gold letters. His faithful Bible. The Bible that Lorraine had given him as a wedding gift and his eyes filled with tears.
It had been almost two weeks since Lorraine had been acting strange but he had thought it had to do with the last case they had worked, which had involved an exorcism that had almost gone wrong. But then, he had realized that the whole problem was the little music box he had given his wife the night after the exorcism.
The exorcism that Ed had executed with the help of Lorraine in the eldest son of the McKenzie family, who had been possessed by an evil spirit that haunted their attic had almost gone wrong. The spirit was very strong and evil, but in the end, they had succeeded.
Gasping, Ed looked away, while Jordan's parents helped the boy to sit on an old couch that there was in the attic, and the man met the weary but pleased eyes of his beautiful wife,
Ed couldn't help but be surprised every time he looked at Lorraine, with her beauty, gentleness, and dedication to the work that moved their lives. He approached her, bringing her body gently against his, hugging the woman, who smiled, burying her face on his neck, smelling his woody scent.
"We did it, Ed, we helped the McKenzie family." Lorraine sighed in relief and Ed smiled fondly as he took her hand and kissed it, cradling it over his heart.
"You were fantastic, love."
Lorraine felt her cheeks turn red and lifted her face, her blue eyes finding her husband's and she said with a beautiful smile:
"I can be the sensitive one, but who executed the exorcism and saved that boy's life was you."
"Both of us." He decided, making her laugh, a sound that always warmed Ed's heart, especially after difficult and tiresome moments like that. The laughter that seemed to be able to heal him. The two completed each other, she with her sensitive side and visions and him, with his knowledge and ability to perform an exorcism.
"I love you Ed, my everything..." Ed, her husband who always made her feel safe and loved, even in the worst situations.
"I love you too, Lorraine, my life."
It was late at night, and so the McKenzie had persuaded the Warren to spend the night there, knowing that the couple were exhausted and that it was dangerous to drive in that road at night. Knowing how much his wife was tired, as always would happen after a closed case, Ed decided to accept, for her.
As Lorraine was dressing in her nightgown in the guest room they were staying, Ed approached his wife, admiring her beauty, and then turned her gently to him, his large and warm hands beneath holding her by her thin waist, making Lorraine's eyes meet his and the couple smiled, staring at each other and the woman placed her hands over his shoulders, feeling Ed massaging her gently but firmly.
They leaned their foreheads against each other's, without losing eye contact, while Ed's hands moved up and down her waist, feeling Lorraine shiver as her soft chest was pressed against his body. Ed brought his lips slowly to hers and she smiled, feeling his breath touching her face, which was lightly flushed, as it always happened, even after two decades of marriage.
"Lorraine ... You look even more beautiful when you're flushed." He murmured with a smile, his chin brushing against her face.
"Ed..." She laughed softly and then, his strong lips captured hers in a small kiss, but that left both of them with racing hearts.
Ed's hands caressed her, feeling her body over her nightgown, feeling its curves as Lorraine's hands tightened their grip on his shoulders, her heart racing. Ed's lips pressed hers, making her part her lips to deep the kiss until they both had to break it and she giggled.
"Ed, I really want a glass of milk."
"I will get it."
Ed put on the robe he'd borrowed over his t-shirt and headed for the kitchen, where he found Mrs. McKenzie drinking a glass of water.
"Night!" The woman said smiling.
"Good night Mrs. McKenzie."
She handed him the glass of milk and they quickly began to talk.
"I want to thank you again for helping our son." Allison said and the man smiled.
"We are happy to help you."
"And you two will be leaving in the morning?"
"Ah yes, as yesterday was our wedding anniversary, we want to celebrate it tomorrow."
"Oh..." The woman was surprised at the revelation, knowing that they hadn't celebrated it so they could be able to help her family.
But Ed, seeing the woman's remorseful reaction, smiled gently, reassuring her and so Allison said:
"You and Lorraine are really special." Seeing the glint in the man's eyes, after hearing his wife's name, she had an idea.
A few minutes later, Ed was carrying on his hands a beautiful blue music box that played a waltz song that was romantic and at the same time melancholic but beautiful. Allison had bought that box some time ago, but had never used it and thought it would be the perfect gift for Ed to give Lorraine.
"Lorraine, close your eyes..." He asked gently as he entered the room and when his wife did so, curiously, he sat down beside her, depositing the music box over her legs and then guided her hand to the key of the box, making her turn it.
"Somewhere in this wide sea, somebody's voice
Sounds so sad and heartbroken
From a lonely crying heart, love itself cannot be born
The only thing you get is overflowing sadness"
But when her fingers touched the key, turning it, in a millisecond, shock took over her face, her blue eyes glazed, but Ed was distracted, listening to the melody of the song and watching Lorraine's fingers, which in that same millisecond, she didn't hear the music, but a voice that came from inside the box, which entered her body. A voice they had heard just a few hours ago.
