1Chapter 2: Could This Be True?

Cindy went to bed, thinking about what Dante had told her. There was no way that was even possible? Maybe he was was lying or something. She knew if a guy liked her or not. Vergil didn't come off as a guy like that. He probably liked her in a friendly way, he came off as a friendly guy. Okay he was a little moody at times, but he was nice to her.

She was in the kitchen trying to figure out what to eat. She wanted something, but she couldn't decide. She fixed a bowl of cereal. She sat down at the table. She had yellow PJs that Dante let her wear. It was hard to believe this was a so called Demon world, didn't feel like it. A few seconds later, Vergil came onto the kitchen. He was fully dressed in his usual outfit. The shirt with the vest, blue overcoat, warrior like boots. His hair was spiked back. He must of got up early this morning. That was the water she heard running. He must be a early bird. She watched him as he poured a glass of orange juice. As he turned around, he stopped. Now he was staring at her. Cindy's eyes met his for a second. Wow, he has the most heavenly blue eyes i ever looked into. She wanted to turn away, but she couldn't.

This was a beautiful moment. Then Dante burst in. He didn't notice them staring at each other. "Morning" He said quickly as he ran by. Cindy finally broke the stare. "Good morning Dante" She said with a smile on her face.

"Any more orange juice?" He asked, looking in the fridge. He looked over and saw that his brother took the last of it. He ran over and tried to take the glass of out Vergil's hand.

"And what do you think you're doing?" Vergil said in a mencing tone, snatching away the glass from Dante's reach

"You know i wanted that, why did you take it?" Dante yelled.

"You shoulda came downstairs eariler, too bad." Dante growled in anger and Vergil teased him. he downed the orange juice. Now Dante was really mad. "If you want some more, there's another box in there"

Dante went to the fridge and looked again. Sure enough there was a whole box of orange juice. "You're lucky there's more, i would of ripped your head off" he threatened. Vergil smiled at him, Dante mean mugged him.

"Well, you two are getting off to a good start i see" Cindy observed.

"Don't mind us, we do this all the time. You'll get used to it." Vergil said. He put his glass in the sink. "Well, i've got business to take care of. I'll see you all a little later. Hey Cindy, wanna go out later?"

"Sure, i got nothing to do" Cindy accepeted.

"Okay" and he was gone again. Dante had the biggest smirk on his face. Cindy gave a him a what did i do face.

"What?"

"See, what did i tell you, taking you out to dinner. That's the first step. Then he's gonna make his move" Dante said

"Maybe he's a nice guy, maybe he wants me to feel welcome"

"Yeah, real welcome. Until he gets down your pants" He mumbled. Cindy gave him a look.

"Well, we see. Later on tonight. Better find a nice dress to wear, don't wanna look scrapy or anything" She got up from the table and went upstairs. What to wear? She asked herself, looking through the closet in her room. There were a lot of dresses in there. Which one to wear. Then she saw it. It was a black dress, low cut in the back. Even though it showed off her back, it was nice. She wanted to see if it fit, but it looked like it was size, so she tried it on anyway.

She looked...really good in it. She wanted to wear this one. She took it off and hung it back up. She looked in the mirror. What to do about her hair? She had to do something with it. Maybe there was a hairdresser around here somewhere that would fix her up. She looked at her watch. She still had time to do things. It was only two in the afternoon. She had time to waste. Dante was asleep on the couch. Let him be, she thought as she went out the door.

Time soon passed by. Cindy was good to go. She looked like a godess. What Vergil think when he sees me? she thought looking in the full length mirror. She gave herself a final lookdown and then went downstiars. Dante was watching T.V. He looked and saw Cindy. He turned around. "Wow, you look great, trying to look good for Vergil? he's not gonna notice you anyway" Dante said, turning back to watch TV. Cindy blew him off. She watied for him to come. Finally he came through the door. When he saw Cindy, he froze in his tracks. Cindy put her head down. He must likes what he's sees, she thought as he continued to stare.

"So, what do you think?" She asked. She already knew the answer.

"You look beauitful, very". Yep, he was lost for words. He was blushing. Dante must of noticed because he was laughing.

"Oh my god, he's blushing! You got him blushing!" He said between laughing. Vergil rolled his eyes, took out the gun that Dante gave him for Christmas and shot him point blank in the head. Dante made a sound and fell off the couch. "That should shut him up for a while. Ready to go?"

"Yes I am." They walked poor Dante lying on the floor groaning and mumbling curses under his breath.

They went to a nice little resturant. It was just a average place, small and cosy. They got a table in the corner so they could be alone.

"So, what made you do something like this?" Cindy asked in between bites.

"I wanted to do something nice, make you feel welcome" Vergil said. he wasn't eating. Cindy felt so lonely eating.

"Hey, you aren't eating, you're not eating"

"I'm not hungry, this food isn't to my liking."

"Oh, if you like it, i love it" Cindy said and contiuned eating.

"There's something i want to tell you." Cindy looked up. He had a serious look on his face. What was he going to tell her? Cindy stopped eating.

"What is it?" She leaned forward a little bit.

"Look, i just wanna tell you that you're beautiful, and the last thing you need is someone like my brother" Vergil spat out.

"What do you mean?"

"Look, Dante is very immature for anything, even a girl like you. He couldn't handle having a girlfriend. He wouldn't know how to handle it. Can i ask you a question? What were you two talking about downstairs when i went to bed?" Vergil added on. Cindy froze at that question. She promised Dante she wouldn't tell him, but she couldn't lie either. She had to tell or else. Cindy straightened out her dress and cleared her throat. Vergil was staring at her, waiting. He had his hands folded in front of him. She smiled the sweetest smile she could muster.

"Well, he told me that he thinks you like me. He says he knows when you like a girl." Cindy said, laughing a little. She looekd at him. She couldn't read his expression. She couldn't tell if he was angry or amused. He was just sitting there, staring at her. Then he started to laugh. Why was he laughing? Did he find that funny? That was unusual. She thought for sure he would get mad, but he was laughing.

"He told you that? Why would he tell you that? God, he really is dumb as shit" Vergil said in between laughing. Cindy was so lost. What the hell? she thought as he sat there just cracking up. Then finally he stopped, then got serious.

"Look, don't pay Dante any attention, sometimes he likes to say alot, but most of it are lies anyway"

"But you do like me? like a friend?" Cindy asked, making sure. He didn't respond for a long time, he was actually looking down. He just sat there for a minute, then he looked up. He had a look in his eyes, she couldn't read it, but it was different than usual.

"Cindy, can i tell you something? Promise you won't tell anyone else, but not here" Vergil said quietly. Cindy shook her head in agreement.

They soon left and went back home. Dante wasn't home. He must of been at the bar somewhere. That was a good thing, now they could be alone. Cindy sat down on the couch while Vergil sat down on the other end, he got a little closer. Cindy mind pondered. What did he have to tell her, for one he barely knew her, and what was the big secret? Well, whatever it is, i can handle it. "So, what is it you have to tell me" Cindy asked, paitently waiting. Vergil took a deep breath before answering.

"Cindy, don't you notice something about me?" Whoa, what a werid question.

"No, you look like a normal human being" She said simply. Vergil shook his head in frustration

"Well, i'm not as normal as you think" Vergil said calmly. What did that mean? Cindy asked herself.

"What? You're not normal or something?" She said, half-laughing.

"No, i'm not. I'm a half demon, thanks to the fact that my mom was human and my father was a full blood demon. And another thing, what that idiot told you, well, i have to admit, it's true" He said in a quiet voice.

"The part that you like me? or what you said to me in the restaurant? That you like me as a friend?"

"Cindy, I like you more than a friend"

"What are you trying to tell me" She asked already knowing the answer.

"Cindy, when you came in through that door, i thought i never saw someone so beautiful, even though you had on a nightgown, but you looked like a angel. I never told anyone something like before, to anyone. Not like that"

She kinda liked the way his voice got soft like that. She never heard him get soft like that. She scooted a little closer to him. She heard him gasp a little. "Did you really mean what you say?" She asked.

"Of course i did. I wanna get to know you more Cindy. But you don't wanna get involved with someone like me. I'm not a good person" Vergil said, looking down at the ground. What was it? was he afraid of admitting his true feelings? Cindy wanted to find out.

"You don't have to hold back, you can tell me what you're really thinking" Cindy said soothingly. She gently began to rub his hand. She could feel his hand tremble at her touch. But he didn't pull away.

"Cindy, i think i'm...i'm falling in love with you" He stammered. Cindy mind froze for a second. There it was, Dante was right. he just admittied to falling in love with her. Finally he pulled his hand away.

"Look, i think i'm about to go to bed" Vergil said, running a hand through his messy hair. "I'll see you tomorrow" and he nearly ran up the stairs. Soon Dante came bursting in. Suprisingly, he was sober. He plopped down on the couch. "Hiya, what up"

"Nothing. Where have you been?" Cindy asked, looking at him up and down in a what the hell happened to you way

"I went out. Figured I should have fun every now and then. So how was the date? Good? Bad? Okay?" Dante rambled.

"It went well. We ate dinner and then we came back here" Cindy explained briefly, smiling.

"Oh, did you have fun?"

"I had fun, can't speak for him, can't tell if he did"

Dante snorted "Knowing him, he won't admit it, but he enjoyed himself."

"Well, like i said, i don't know" Cindy said yawning. "Wow, i'm tired, better get to bed. What about you?"

"Huh?"

"Aren't you going to bed?"

"Yeah, in a little bit. Wanna watch a movie real quick. Well sweet dreams" He blew a quick kiss at her. She was used to him doing that. He didn't mean anything by it. Cindy got up and went to bed.
