Hi, everyone! I'm glad about the feedback I got about the first chapter! I was super nervous about it. And I have some good news! The good news is, I found a new beta-reader, so maybe starting next chapter, you won't find mistakes or anything really like that! I love her already! She's so fun to talk to to! Anyway, I'll stop rambling and let you read.
Enjoy! :)
"Ah, Lovely, don't do that," C.C. scolded her dove, as it tried to tear one of the roses from the ground. The dove flew off to who knows where while the Angel sighed, knowing that the dove would eventually come back. She gathered her things, getting ready to leave and head back home, but a familiar voice made the Angel grit her teeth in annoyance.
"Leaving already?" Lelouch questioned, sitting on top of a branch.
"How long have you been there, Demon?" C.C. turned around, glaring at the creature that was not supposed be present.
He shrugged." Long enough to know that your bird got angry at you and left," Lelouch answered." Like I said before, you Angels are so amusing to watch. Do you really just sit here all day every day doing nothing?"
She turned her back to him, looking at the trees ahead of her." No I do not. I have things to do other than sit around and watch Angels all day."
"I also have other stuff to do that sit and watch Angels all day. You just happen to come at the time I am not busy. After all, I am a prince." Lelouch said.
"Then don't you have princely duties?"
"I don't have to be back at the palace until later, so I come here."
"Does your family know you're here?"
"All I know is that they think I'm at Kallen's home."
"Who?"
"A friend of mine who is also a Demon," Lelouch explained, jumping off the tree and landing on his feet." My parents are trying to engage me to her, but I only think of Kallen as a friend."
"Why are you telling me all this?" C.C. asked.
The raven haired Demon shrugged." You are the only one around and I was answering your question. Simple as that."
"You Demons are ridiculous," C.C. muttered, walking away from Lelouch.
As quick as lightning, the Demon was in front of her, his arms crossed and smirking slightly at the look the green haired Angel's face." How did you-" she started, but was cut off by the Demon.
"We Demons all have a specialty, just like you Angels each have something special about your wings." he then added," It's also rude to walk away from someone while they're talking. Quite an interesting Angel you are. "
"Go back to where you belong, Lelouch," she said, saying his name for the first time that day." As a Demon in the Angel World, you are not welcome here. Please, leave me alone."
"You seemed fine with me yesterday before I flew off? You did exactly as I said when I asked you to turn around." he replied.
"I prefer to not die at an early age," she remarked, looking him in the eye." Besides, you are not the only one with something special."
"Oh, really?" Lelouch questioned, raising an eyebrow.
The Angel nodded her head." Unlike other Angels, I have more than just special wings. I can sense the presence of another Angel and danger. Demons, though, I cannot sense their presence, something I've always wondered until you came along."
"That makes me even more interested in you..." Lelouch mumbled under his breath.
C.C. barely heard his comment, asking," Say that again?"
Lelouch looked back up, a small pink blush across his face." N-No. Nothing. Just thinking to myself."
C.C. smirked." So, I'm interesting to you?"
"What? No. I said that about all you Angels," Lelouch argued, trying to cover his slip up.
"So, I'm a boring person then?"
"Where the-"
"I could always report you to the council. I mean, I think I'm the only Angel who has been nice enough to let you stay here and not say one thing about it."
"How did we-"
The Angel's smirk changed to a smile as she let out a chuckle that was beautiful to the Demon's ears." I'm just teasing. Don't take it to heart. I just like seeing you in an tight situation."
He looked away slightly, putting a hand on her head and grumbling," You are a weird Angel."
She ignored the hand on her head, replying," And you are the first Demon I have ever met and heard of that isn't some tyrannical monster."
"Not all Demons are as you are told. Most, but not all. If you use to be an Angel, it's highly likely that you would turn into the rumored Demon you have learned about," the Demon explained to her, taking his hand off her head." Red fits you."
Feeling the top of her head, C.C. felt the red rose that he had put into her hair. That's what he was doing, she thought." Then, half a year ago, my friend had this girl that was his lover, but for reasons still unknown, she killed at least ten people. She was sent there for committing one of the three sins. I always wonder if she's changed any kind of way."
"Well, only few people are allowed to keep their memory of ever being Angel, like my mother. She might have been one of them, but the ones that usually have their memory kept become very revengeful because of being sent to my world."
"Oh," she mumbled.
If she had told Suzaku any of this, she knew he would not like to know this at all. Euphie was such a sweet, nice girl, but one morning, they found her on the floor unconscious with a knife in her hand and at least ten other Angels surrounding her, all dead. When she was conscious again, she had no recollection of what happened, but except for the fact that she was to be banished to the Demon World.
"But it would be better if she was one of the ones to have her memory erased so she wouldn't remember the things she did, and she'd be able to start a new life as a Demon," he smiled.
"You know, for a Demon, you are a lot of help. I might like you now."
His smile disappeared and turned into a frown." So that whole time we were talking you didn't like me?"
"Exactly. I didn't like you yesterday, so why would I like you today?"
"Crazy Angel," he grumbled, running a hand through his hair.
C.C. did not know what possessed her to do this, but she took a step forward and kissed the Demon on the cheek, causing him to turn a bright shade of red." Though, I still don't know why you hang around here, but thank you for staying around. You're... You're like a friend."
"Ah," he smirked, ruining the moment for both of them," But don't you already have a friend?"
"You know, learn to appreciate kindness, Demon," she said, giving him a flat look.
"Sadly, this is all the kindness you'll get. Today, anyway," he smirked, grabbing a hold of her hand and kissing it." I might give you more tomorrow."
C.C. scoffed as Lelouch let out a small chuckle, not noticing that he had unconsciously folded their hands together.
Yeah, yeah. It's just a friend thing they both have for now... Well, at least I think so...
I hop you enjoyed that, though! I liked it for some reason, despite a lot of the mistakes I probably have.
So, Read and Review! XD
