Chapter 10 is going up now and with it I hope people will review!
Waking up the next morning, I was dazed and confused for minutes. Having all that blood in my system could make me like that. Getting out of my bed I stumbled towards the bureau and gripped its edges. I look up into the mirror and could see my reflection, the pale skin and red lips. But what worried me the most was the silver eyes looking back at me. I delicately reached out and touch where my eyes were and so did the mirror me. Whipping my head back and forth I made my way towards the closet and took out a dress. It was a long, black dress with a bodice that was flowing with a sweet heart neckline and white accents around the bottom, neckline, and the sleeves. Prying off my blood encrusted ripped dress and put on new undergarments that were of course black I stepped into my dress and shimmied it over my bony hips. Strolling over again to the mirror I ran a brush through my hair and pulled it off my face into a bun, letting a few strands of hair fall to frame my face. Smiling now at my work and that my eyes had turned back to their original color I suddenly remember what happen last night. A blush found its way to my face and settled there as my mouth fell open like a fish.
"What have I done?" That thought ran through my head as I walked over to the door and crack it open, "I need to see Abigail!" Sensing no one out there at the moment and hearing nothing with my ears, I swiftly snuck down the hall and out the door of the shop. Speed walking down the alley to make sure Undertaker had not heard me and was going to follow I made my way out the mouth of the alley. Once I knew I was safe in the crowd of people I slowed my pace and began to leisurely walk.
"How could we have kissed like that?"I whispered to no one in particular, but just felt that need to talk to myself, "I mean a demon and a soul reaper kissing like that? HA!" I shook my head and my thoughts started to wonder to the Undertaker. He was a crazy man who enjoyed taking apart people for fun. But so did I when I knew the people were bad. But he was a soul reaper…how could we ever be together. No we could never be together that was the thing demons and soul reapers just did not do that, it had never happen before and it would not happen now. No matter how much I want it to. Glancing up to see that I had reached my destination I walked into the little pub. Not wasting time with sitting at the tables I moved over to the bar and sat at one of the stools.
"I need to see Abigail." I told the man bar tending. He gave a nod and went behind the bar to the kitchen and a second later came out with a blonde woman. Admittedly when the woman saw me her eyes lit up.
"Rachel!" Rushing around the bar the tall woman pulled me into a bone crushing hug. I smiled and hugged the woman back.
"It's good to see you Abigail." I released the woman and looked into her blue eyes.
"Come come; let's get out of all this noise." She said pulling me up the stairs that were directly in front of the door. Moving into one of the rooms that were along a long hallway I was greeted with the smell of incense. It was a deep smell and kind of musky and I like it immensely.
"Shall I put on some tea?" She asked moving over to the makeshift kitchen, "Earl Gray I presume." She said smiling cheekily.
"Yes please." I said sticking out my tongue and taking a sit at one of the deep, blue cushioned chairs. Looking around the room I noticed that everything in the room was blue. The tea cups, the cloths on the table, the drapes. I scrunched my noise but did not say anything.
"Oh hush now, I know you hate blue." Abigail said taking the sit across from mine. I stuck my tongue out again, "oh you big baby."
"I am a big baby…vixen." I said purring and leaning back in my chair. Abigail let out a fit of laughs at this and soon I followed her. When we heard the kettle whistling Abigail stood and made her way towards the kitchen.
"So why are you here?" I was silent for a minute, contemplating how I should tell her my story when she reentered the room with the steaming kettle. When she noticed my silence she poured the tea and sat down.
"What have you done?"
"A little itsy bitsy mistake." I told her holding my thumb and pointer finger an inch apart, "not much problem…"
"That doesn't sound reassuring."
"Yes I know." I sighed and picked up my tea cup. Taking a sip of it I set it down and looked her straight in the eyes, "do you promise not to tell a soul what I'm going to tell you?" When she nodded I launch into story about last night and when the story was finished she was staring at me with a smile on her face.
"So you kissed him, you vixen!" She said giggling, "I don't see what the big problem here is."
"The problem is I'm a demon and he is a soul reaper." Abigail knew about soul reapers and demons and that's why we became friends so fast.
"Okay so maybe there are a couple complications here and there, but there are in every relationship." Abby said waving her hand back and forth, "and besides this is the first time I've seen you fret about a man…so he must be something." I stared at the woman in shock and continue to but slowly it dawned on my face.
"Oh my god…I like this man…this soul reaper!" I gasped as if not believing it myself and covered my mouth with my hands. "But this can't happen he is a soul reaper."
"Yes and half demon aren't supposed to happen yet here you are." When she said this it felt like something inside me said "yes that's true!"
"Yes…yes!" I smiled as if knowing now what I had to do, but then a thought ran through my head, "what about my father?"
"You don't need to tell him just yet, you can tell him later." She said winking, "for now just go get your man." I stood up and nodded.
"Yes I think I will." I purred and walked out the door and down the stairs to the landing. Grabbing the handle of the door I opened the door to have a wind blow into my face. Walking out I looked up and noticed that the sky's were a smoky gray. Smiling I thought "my perfect day."
