It's where my demons hide JD x CS
FiggyPlum I am so sorry that this has taken so long. This has been written mostly by the amazeballs sister Jess who helped me out massively. I just edited and added some bits.
"You can't go around hating all demons forever you know" Dylan told Jorel as he threw another skittle into his mouth as they chilled in their lounge. The band decided to move in with each other as it was just much easier to hide their true identities that way. But it hasn't worked out for the best for two of the occupants. Jorel and Jordan have been failing to get along as Jorel was an angel and was terrified of ever letting a demon close to him due to an incident in the past and Jordan turned out to be exactly what Jorel had been avoiding. So it was easy to say that the tensions were always raised quite high in their house. "I can hate demons for as long as I want to, Dylan. And you know we can live forever essentially" Jorel pointed out and Dylan just threw one of his skittles over at him. Jorel quickly moved out of the way and just picked the skittle up off the floor before chucking it back over at Dylan, who caught it in his mouth and ate it before grinning over at Jorel. "I swear to God, you're more of a werewolf than a bloody vampire" Jorel muttered and Dylan just laughed.
"You do know that you won't be able to hide your feud with him from the public for much longer right? They are getting clever these days" Dylan said, "And Jordan has been pretty patient with your actions but he can't keep it up forever" He continued and Jorel just sighed. He does almost feel guilty about how often they have ended up breaking out into a fight but he just couldn't shake his mistrust. It is too deeply embedded in him. "Don't worry, the public won't be aware of it. If we can hide who we are for as long as we have, then I'm pretty sure I can keep this hidden from them as well." Jorel assures him but Dylan just shook his head. "You need to let it go, Jay; Jordan is not the demon from your past. And you know it" He pointed out and Jorel just sighed again. "I just can't okay, if you were there then, you wouldn't either" Jorel threw at him, getting irritated at Dylan for not letting the subject go. "Jay, really? If I feared every werewolf then I would go insane and paranoid. It's not healthy to hold on to grudges like this" Dylan lectured him and Jorel just shrugged as Matt walked into the room.
"I don't know what happened in the past, but I do know that Dylan is right. If I have learnt anything from all my years, it's that it's never worked out to hold on to grudges and people in the past" Matt interjected and Jorel just sighed yet once again. He knows they are right but he just couldn't do it and he definitely doesn't want to continue talking about it now.
"Why don't we get back to work? This album isn't going to finish itself" Dylan told Matt as he saw how Jorel was being affected by the current topic. "Sure, by the way I think that Jordan has written some lyrics for pigskin" Matt informed him and Dylan nodded as he headed over to the bookshelf near him and took his laptop from the top shelf. "Cool, we'll have to see how they fit in but I'm pretty sure they will." Dylan started to say but Jorel zoned out as they spoke, memories from nearly two hundred years ago starting to leak out of where he had locked them away. "Jay?" Dylan called and Jorel jumped due to being torn out of his deep thoughts. "Sorry, I was lost in thought. What did you say?" Jorel apologized as he focused on the two looking at him.
"Let me guess? Trapped in memories?" Dylan asked and Jorel nodded before turning back to staring at the space in front of him. "Jay, maybe talking about it will help?" Matt suggested and Jorel just shrugged as George walked into the room. "I don't know, it was almost two hundred years ago so it probably won't be worth it. It's too deep" Jorel admitted, hoping it will be enough for them to leave him alone but luck was not on his side. "Jay, it doesn't matter how long ago it was, speaking about our troubles always helps as it eases it off our chest and minds" Matt told him, "It won't hurt to try" He added as he saw Jorel shake his head as he tried to fight the memories resurfacing. "If you insist" Jorel gave in as he felt how much he was losing the battle and his self-control along with it.
…flashback begins...
"The year was 1851, Jorel had just moved to San José, Costa Rica a couple months ago and was still getting used to the area. He decided to head to the local pub and ordered a double shot of rum neat. As he took a sip of his drink, a gentleman walked up to his side and ordered himself a drink before turning to Jorel. "Hola, cómo te va?" He asked Jorel with a grin and Jorel smiled back. "Hola, estoy bien, gracias" Jorel responded and the gentleman grinned as he could hear in Jorel's voice that spanish isn't his natural tongue. "Hablas inglés?" The man asked him and Jorel nodded in response with a grin. "Much better than I do with spanish I'm afraid" Jorel admitted and the other just laughed. "Well, I'm also pretty good at english as well so don't worry. My name's Daniel but mis amigos calls me Danny" Danny introduced himself and offered his hand out to Jorel. "Mine's Jorel. It's nice to meet you Danny" Jorel responded as he shook the other man's hand. "So where are you from Jorel?" Danny asked him and Jorel took another sip of his drink before replying. "Just call me Jay if you'd like and I'm from Los Angeles originally but have lived in italy for the past few years" Jorel answered and Danny nodded in awe. "That is amazing. I would love to be able to travel like that, instead of just being stuck here. Although, fun fact, I have been to Los Angeles with mi mamá before moving back here to live with mi padre" Danny admitted and Jorel nodded. "So you have seen a little bit more than a lot of people here" Jorel pointed out and Danny laughed as he found that he had to hand it to him.
"Amigos míos, por qué no se unen a nosotros?" Another gentleman called the pair at the bar from his table. Danny nodded over at him before dragging Jorel with him over to the gentlemans table. "Gracias. Mi amigo aquí no entiende español tanto, así que te importa si hablamos en inglés?" Danny asked the man and he nodded enthusiastically. "Sí! It will give me chance to perfect english!" He told them and they both smiled happily back at him. "I am John" He said and signaled to Jorel to tell him his name. "I am Jorel, but you can call me Jay. And this is Danny" Jorel responded and John nodded. "Do you play poker?" He asked them and they both nodded in response as John began to set up the table.
They began to play poker and as they played, Jorel started to find true friends in the pair he had met that night. Although he did sense that John was a Demon and he knew that John could sense that he was an Angel. And despite this, Jorel couldn't help finding himself attracted to said Demon. He was a true gentleman. Every time Jorel was on the verge of folding and John already had before, he would help Jorel with little hints. His help kept Jorel playing for a lot longer than if he was on his own, but ultimately Danny ended up winning the game. "No lo puedo creer!" Danny exclaimed as Jorel folded. "I have never actually won a game before!" He added and both Jorel and John laughed at the poor man. "Well, there's a first time for everything, my friend" Jorel said as he patted Danny on the back. "I'm going to get another drink, would you two like anything?" Jorel asked them and Danny nodded. "Whatever you're having" He told Jorel and as Jorel turned towards John, he found that John had stood up. "I will buy this round. Now come with me to bar" John instructed Jorel and Jorel happily followed him, laughing at Danny as he threw a sly wink Jorel's way.
"What drink you want?" John asked him in his broken up english as the bartender came up to them. "A double rum if you will, thank you" Jorel responded and the bartender nodded as he went to fix the drinks up. "Dos de ellos por favor? Y un vodka doble u coca para mí, por favor?" John asked the bartender, who just nodded in response. "Don't want to get too drunk tonight." John explained and Jorel just laughed. "So, what does an Angel come to Costa Rica for?" John asked him and Jorel shrugged. "I felt like trying out a new place. I have spent most of my life around America and Italy so I felt like trying out something new" Jorel admitted and John nodded in aprovement. "So what about demons then?" Jorel fired back and John laughed. "I lived here when I was human, I live here as demon. I like Costa Rica, and I know how to stay anónimo." John told him and Jorel grinned. "Nice" Jorel said as the bartender brought the drinks over to them. As Jorel went to pay for them, John put his hand over his own, and then paid the bartender himself. "I say I pay" John chastised him with a laugh before they turned to head back to Danny.
As they neared the table, they found Danny passed out with his head on the table. "He has borracho lots tonight. He sleeping good" John said as they laughed at the poor human. Jorel poured Danny's drink into his and the pair just spent the next half hour chatting away and learning a lot about each other and their past lives as well as their newer longer lives. Jorel found out that John was also gay and found himself fascinated by the demon.
Once they finished their drinks Jorel got prepared to leave and dug through Danny's pockets to figure out where the man lives but couldn't find anything. So instead he decided that Danny will crash at his until he's sobered up. "You no longer stay for another drink?" John questioned him but Jorel smiled kindly at him before shaking his head. "I should get Danny to bed, I'm pretty sure he'll have work tomorrow" Jorel told him and John just nodded, unable to hide his disappointment from Jorel but quickly worked to cover it up. "Okay, you want to meet again? In two days?" John asked him and Jorel quickly nodded with a grin. "I would love to, the same time?" Jorel asked in return and John happily nodded himself. "It's a plan, I will see you in two days" John said as Jorel picked Danny up in his arms. Without a warning, John kissed him on the lips before disappearing out of the door. "What a fella?" Jorel muttered to himself as he felt a blush fill his cheeks.
When Danny finally awoke, Jorel was in the middle of reading a book from an old friend. "Buenos días" He muttered as he saw Jorel and Jorel quickly looked up and grinned at the state of Danny. He couldn't keep his eyes open for much and Jorel was able to tell just how rotten the human felt. "Would you like some food? Some water? It will help with the hangover." Jorel suggested and Danny tried to nod but couldn't be bothered in responding in his current state. "I shall take that as an agreement. I shall be back shortly, don't move" Jorel said and laughed quietly to himself as Danny just groaned in response.
When Jorel returned, Danny was confused by a smell, to the point that he could not determine what it was. "What is that smell?" Danny asked Jorel as he managed to move himself into a sitting position, leaning heavily on the wall behind him. He saw that Jorel was holding a plate with eggs and bread on it and was holding a weird cup. "It is Eggs and toast and a cup of coffee" Jorel informed him and Danny's eyes went wide. "How did you get coffee?" Danny asked him as only the important people in Costa Rica could get their hands on coffee.
Jorel chuckled as he handed Danny the plate before handing him the cup once Danny had set the plate down next to him. "I am friends with a coffee farmer." Jorel explained and Danny just stared at him. "I didn't know you had friends high up." Danny said and Jorel shrugged. "Does it matter? I believe that it should not matter who one is friends with, I believe it only matters how you treat people" Jorel stated and Danny grinned. "I like that, that's good" Danny said quietly before trying coffee for the first time. "Oh, that taste is strong" Danny said as he pulled back away from the cup. Jorel laughed as he took the cup off Danny so that he can eat. "Yes, it does take some getting used to I suppose" Jorel admitted and Danny grinned as munched on his food.
"Did anything happen between you and John last night? I do not remember much" Danny asked and Jorel laughed after Danny mentioned the memory loss. "So you saw then? We will meet up again tomorrow at the same time" Jorel told him and Danny grinned again. "I knew something would happen. It was quite obvious" He admitted and Jorel laughed again, happy to see that his new friend is an accepting soul.
"Oh my, I actually like that coffee, it's made me feel so awake. I don't believe I have ever been this awake before. Do you know what I mean?" Danny said quickly and Jorel grinned as he realized that the coffee is affecting him. "No, I don't believe I do" He said and Danny laughed. "At least I am no longer feeling dead" Danny muttered and Jorel couldn't help but throw out a laugh.
"Have you got a special interest in anyone?" Jorel asked as he sat back down and opened his book to his previous page. "Sí, una chica hermosa. Theresa" Danny said and smiled as he thought about his love. "How long has it been?" Jorel continued asking and Danny concentrated. "Oh Dios, no lo sé. Might be five years now" Danny replied and Jorel nodded as he went back to reading. "That's good to hear," Jorel said before getting engrossed in his book. "How did you get a book? I have maybe seen a book three times in my twenty five years" Danny said, shocked due to how much Jorel owns. "An old close friend of mine wrote this. She was a talented women." Jorel informed him and Danny was able to detect a hint of sadness in Jorel's voice. "How did she pass?" Danny asked him quietly and Jorel looked up at him with sadness darkening his eyes. "She became really ill and died at the age of 41." Jorel told him and Danny smiled gently as he met his eyes. "That was a good age still" Danny said and Jorel nodded. "That is true, I just miss her company" Jorel admitted and a single tear escaped the corner of his right eye. "As long as you hold on to her memory, she will be happy" Danny said in comfort and Jorel smiled. "That is also true." Jorel said and saw as Danny struggled to see what is on the book.
"Can you read?" Jorel asked Danny and he shook his head. "We couldn't afford to learn, sorry" Danny said quietly in embarrassment. And Jorel moved to sit on the bed. "I can teach you if you'd like." He offered but Danny just shook his head. "At this age there's no point plus I would feel bad if I am able to read when everyone I know cannot. It's already a big thing that I can speak English as well as I can" Danny explained and Jorel nodded. "That's a fair point" He said, "Well, just in case curiosity is still there, this reads; Pride and Prejudice."
"Ooh sounds incredibly suited for the higher class," Danny said with a laugh. Jorel laughed as well and shrugged before taking out a cigarette. "Do you smoke?" Jorel questioned him and Danny nodded. Jorel handed Danny one and then lit his own before lighting Danny's for him. "Thank you, and I hope it goes well with the gentleman from last night. I should be getting home; Theresa will be wondering" Danny said and Jorel nodded as he stood up. "That is true, I was going to take you home last night but could not find anything about where you lived so I decided to bring you here instead just so that you had a roof above your head" Jorel admitted and Danny grinned. "Thank you for that and we should play again soon, last night was good fun" Danny told him and Jorel nodded. "I am in full agreement with that and we should do it soon, how about in two days? We can meet up at the same time as we did last night just to keep it from being confusing" Jorel suggested and Danny nodded in agreement before getting his shoes on. "Sounds like a swell idea, I shall see you in two days" Danny said and then shook Jorel's hand before leaving his cottage."
...Back to Reality.. aka present day
"So, did the date go well? If it was a date that is" George asked and Jorel nodded. "I suppose you could class it as a date but it didn't really feel like one. It was just a bunch of awkward silences apart from him cracking a joke here and there in his broken English. I don't know, guess I didn't feel it but I was hella lonely back then and felt that it was just me making it awkward. So I ignored it and went with the flow to see how it would turn out" Jorel explained and George nodded to show that he understood.
"Wait a minute! You and Jane Austen were lovers!" Matt suddenly clicked and Jorel burst out laughing. "Oh my god, it's taken you this long to click on?" He asked Matt in disbelief and he just nodded with his eyes wide open. "I knew you were close friends before she passed but that's it, oh my god. That is insane!" Matt threw out and Jorel just nodded.
"Anyways, after that me and John ended up meeting up a few more times before deciding we should try a relationship. We knew we were both quite different, him being a demon and I an angel but there was a connection. Once I had let go of my awkwardness and reluctancy, I started to grow fond of John and found myself falling for him quite a bit. Lord knows I was worried about how God would think of this union but I was willing to risk God's love to have some happiness at that point. I mean, it was him in the first place who casted me out" Jorel muttered to himself and George shook his head. "Don't focus on that Jay, you know it only hurts you more" he told the angel and Jorel just nodded and tried to focus on his storytelling."
…
"Well, for the next few months, everything was going along amazingly well for Jorel. He and Danny had become great friends and found an interest that they shared together in music and Jorel found that Danny did in fact want to learn to read. He wished to be able to write lyrics and poetry but couldn't make it more than a dream. So Jorel decided to teach Danny how to read before moving on to write and Danny was ecstatic. This was his dream coming true.
Jorel was also ecstatic about the relationship that had formed between himself and John and was truly happy for the first time since the death of his ex. He was quite worried that God would not accept him back into his arms but Jorel was happy and was in love with someone who reciprocated that love. "Hey, Jay! Volver a nosotros!" John said as he waved his hand in front Jorel's face, forcing him to focus on what's in front of him. "Sorry, I was inside my thoughts for a while then" Jorel apologized and John shook his head. "You do that a lot I have noticed. You not going loco are you?" He asked and Jorel shook his head quickly, slightly offended at being called crazy. "No, I was merely distracted." Jorel explained hoping to ease the mood on the table.
Just then Danny came into the bar and gave a weak smile as he saw Jorel and John turn towards him. "How little have you been sleeping Danny? You look half dead" Jorel complained as he saw deep dark shadows around Danny's eyes. "I'm good, just been a bit distracted these days and lost a small amount of sleep. But everything is bueno." Danny claimed and Jorel accepted it with only a slight amount of doubt. "But the important part is that I am here and ready to beber" Danny said and forced out a bigger smile as he went up to the bar.
Jorel found himself slightly worried about Danny and turned to talk to John. "I am worried about Danny, I don't think he should be drinking, at least not tonight." Jorel admitted and John laughed and shook his head. "No lo seas, He will be okay. No te preocupes tanto." John told him and Jorel just sighed and nodded as he tried to push the worry to the back of his mind. He did notice that John does seem to be in a better mood now so that helped Jorel feel better as well. As Danny came to the table with a round of drinks for everyone, they quickly began playing poker again as it has become their favourite time passer. "Ha! I might actually win this one!" Danny suddenly threw out and Jorel and John both laughed at him when he instantly regretted his words.
Once the game was over, Danny found himself feeling quite bad about himself and decided that he should go home to deal with it by himself. "I will see you next time" Danny said, trying to force out a smile and John gave him a huge grin in return whereas Jorel just had a worried look in his eyes. "Are you sure you should be by yourself right now? I can come over and provide company for a small amount of time?" Jorel offered and Danny just shook his head. "No, I will be fine. I am just tired. Ciao" He responded and quickly headed out and Jorel just sighed sadly. "I don't believe him. He wouldn't normally bail after one game" Jorel said and just watched as John shook his head and let out a chuckle. "He's fine. He most likely got tired of losing. "He's not very good at this game. Pobre alma." He responded with another chuckle. Jorel just nodded and once again tried to put it to the back of his head. "You set up another game and I will go get some drinks" Jorel told him and John just nodded as he was already beginning to sort out a new game.
… following Danny's side of the story…..
As Danny was walking home, a load of foreign thoughts kept popping into his mind and he felt like he might actually explode. He doesn't understand why he's reacting to life in such a way. He's never been like this in his entire life. He doubts everything good happening to him now, he doubts his friendship with Jorel, his relationship with Theresa, the only thing he doesn't doubt is the way he enjoys drinking but only by himself, if he's drinking with others it just ruins it for him. He also keeps thinking about the way he acted before his mother and father passed away and how he wished he had been a good person back then. He's found himself just regretting everything in his life and he can feel it as it sucks him into an endless void of misery.
As he reached his home, he made sure that Theresa wasn't there waiting for him or anything. Once he made sure the place was clear of any other life forms, he quickly broke into his collection of rum and brandy and started throwing down as much as he could. It's the only way he can think of to control the storm he has found himself in. He doesn't understand what triggers it even, it's almost like whenever he's happy, he should be tortured for it and he doesn't understand. If he just understood then it would be fine, he'd find a way to deal but there's no conclusion to be had. And it is torture, that's the only way he could explain, it's as if God is personally torturing him for his sins.
Danny fell to the floor as his mind kept rambling and struggled to control himself and his emotions because he felt that he was getting deadly close to exploding. "¡¿Qué me está pasando?!" He screamed out loud and broke down crying, "¡Duele demasiado!"" He threw out mid sobs and clutched the bottle he was currently on to his chest as emotions turned into a hurricane within him. "No puedo hacer esto más." He cried and curled up into a ball on the ground as he gave up on trying to keep himself together.
…...Back to Jorel's side of story…
"I think I might go check up on Danny, I still can't stop worrying about him" Jorel admitted after they finished yet another game of poker and John sighed in frustration. "¡Dios mío! I never see you anymore, you are always with him!" John snapped and Jorel was taken aback. He always tried to see John as much as possible but he also didn't want to push away Danny as they have become real close friends. "Why are you saying this? I have always been there when you wanted to meet up and have asked many times for you to meet up with me" Jorel said quickly to defend himself and John glared at him. "You are with me, not with him. He's just a friend, not someone to be around with more than your partner." He chastised him and then finished his drink. "I'm so sorry, I didn't realize this was how you felt. You should have told me sooner, but don't worry. From now on, I'll be there for you more, I promise" Jorel promised him and saw it as the demon lightened up. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be a persona malvada. I'm just feeling lonely these days and I took it out on you" He admitted and Jorel smiled, "It's okay, we all have an inner demon" He said and grinned as John laughed at his terrible pun. "Dios mío, that was terrible" He said laughing and they both laughed it off.
"Go be with Danny, I will see you tomorrow at yours?" He said and Jorel nodded with a big smile. "Thank you so much, and yes, as early as you want" Jorel replied before giving the demon a kiss before leaving to check on his friend. "It will be early!" John shouted as Jorel left and Jorel laughed.
On his way over to Danny's his mind was caught up in imagining what tomorrow will hold and was grinning away to himself as he reached his friend's door. "Danny? Are you in?" Jorel called and received no response except for someone crying inside. This suddenly ripped away Jorel's happiness and he quickly opened the door and rushed in. "Danny?!" Jorel called in shock as he saw the human curled up in a ball against the wall on the other side of the room, clutching a bottle brandy to his chest and a couple bottles of medicine beside him.
"¡No! ¡Vete!" Danny cried as he saw Jorel standing in front of him. "No, Danny. Tell me what is going on?!" Jorel begged him as he went up to his friend and crouched in front of him before taking Danny's hands in his. He then pulled Danny up to his feet and moved him to a chair. "Danny, hablarme, por favor?" Jorel asked him again quietly, as he knelt in front of the poor man. "It hurts. Jay, it really hurts" Danny whispered as he moved himself off the chair and back down to the ground. He went back to holding his chest tightly and tears were still speeding down his cheeks. "What hurts? Your chest?" Jorel asked him and Danny nodded as he began sobbing again and Jorel realized that Danny wasn't talking in a literal sense. "What's making it hurt?" He asked as he sat next to Danny and pulled him in for a tight hug. "I do not know at this point, everything!" Danny continued crying and Jorel found that he had begun crying for Danny's sake, he hated seeing his best friend in so much torture. "I have failed so drastically in every point of my life. What am I even doing?" Danny threw out and returned the hug tightly as he cried even harder. "You are doing the best you can. Don't let this break you, I beg you." Jorel said quietly and then suddenly remembered about the medicine bottles. "Danny, why are there medicine bottles here?" Jorel asked him and Danny shrugged. "Apparently it will stop the pain" Danny said as he managed to control his crying to an extent. "No it won't Danny, it will make it worse" Jorel told him but Danny just shook his head. "Impossible" He whispered in response and Jorel just tightened his hold on Danny.
"You will get better, just don't take the medicine" Jorel saaid and Danny just didn't respond, finding himself drifting off to sleep. As soon as Jorel realized the other was going to sleep, he quickly checked to make sure that he hadn't actually taken any of the medicine. Thankfully, it doesn't look like the bottle had been opened. Jorel let out a sigh of relief at this and just focused on moving Danny to his bed. "Can you please stay with me tonight? I don't want to be alone" Danny asked him quietly as Jorel was about to leave. "Of course" Jorel told him and was secretly happy about it because he did not trust Danny to be alone. He let Danny curl up to him and then the human quickly fell into a deep drunken sleep.
Whilst Danny slept, Jorel tried to figure out what caused Danny's pain but he could not think of a reason. It's as if it just happened out of nowhere, as if God were punishing him for spending more time with the demon then one of his creations, so he wants to hurt Jorel through his friend to teach him a lesson. It's the only reason Jorel could think of. "Lord, please leave Danny out of this. It is me you should punish, not Danny. I will stop seeing the demon, I promise, just don't hurt the human." Jorel promised his father, praying with every inch of his power. He was sad about having to leave the demon but he didn't want anyone to get hurt just for the sake of him being happy for a little bit. He will inform the demon tomorrow but tonight he just wants to look after the broken human.
The next day, he told John what he wanted to do but the demon did not agree. "I do not care if it hurts the human! I only care about us!" He shouted at Jorel, causing the angel to flinch and move backwards. "¡Déjalo morir!" He added on at the end and this upset Jorel a lot. "How dare you say that!? He's our friend!" Jorel shouted back and the demon glared at him with all his power, scaring Jorel slightly. "No, he is your friend! And why would you befriend a human anyway? They're weak!" John snapped and Jorel struggled to keep himself in check. "No! They are not weak, they're stronger than the rest of us! They are selfless! They have a freewill and much better than you bloody Demons!" Jorel snapped and couldn't control his wings snapping out as anger coursed through him. John's wings also snapped out in self-defence and anyone could see the loathing for Danny clouding his eyes.
"Tal vez se está volviendo loco!" John snapped out of him and Jorel's blood flooding with the urge to kill the demon in front of him and he pulled out a weapon he hadn't needed in years. " ¡Por Dios! If you want blood then I will give you blood" The demon growled at him as he gave up trying to hide his real skin. "You need to leave San José and take your human friend with you before I kill you both!" John snapped before disappearing through the door and taking off quickly. Tears began to pour out of Jorel's eyes and he found himself on the verge of hating God for causing this. He quickly left his home and rushed to Danny's just in case John wasn't going to wait but thankfully found Danny by himself at his home.
"Danny, we need to leave San José now! John wants to kill us." Jorel threw out as he barged in to the house and Danny was shocked to see Jorel's wings. "What are you?" Danny quickly threw out as he quickly moved to the opposite side of his home, Jorel realized his wings were out and quickly put them back away.. "Danny, you do not need to be scared of him. I will protect with all my God given might but I need you to come with me." Jorel said in a rush but Danny couldn't focus, he was terrified. "Why do you have wings?" Danny asked as he couldn't take his eyes off of where they used to be. "I'm an angel! Danny, there is no time for this!" Jorel shouted before instantly regretting as Danny's heart almost exploded with fear. "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to shout but I'm terrified right now. I need to get you to safety. But I promise I will explain everything to you but right now, we need to get out of here" Jorel said, infinitely calmer and Danny also began to calm down. "Where would we even go? I have no money to get me anywhere" Danny said as Jorel gave up on waiting for Danny to get packing and began packing Danny's belongings himself.
"That's okay, I have somewhere we can go, a second home of sorts" Jorel explained and Danny rolled his eyes automatically. "Of course you do" He muttered before moving to help Jorel. "By the way, I will hold you to the promise. Because I need to know exactly why the hell I need to leave my home." Danny stated and Jorel could still hear the fear in his voice. "Do so, because I will answer every question possible." Jorel assured him as he made sure only essentials were packed. "What about mi Theresa!?" Danny cried and Jorel winced. "I'm so sorry Danny" Jorel said quietly and Danny's eyes instantly started to well up and this just pulled at Jorel's heart even more. "I will fix this, I promise. I just need to make sure you're safe first." Jorel told and picked up Danny's bag before grabbing hold of Danny's wrist and pulled him along as he left the house. Once they were outside, Jorel unfurled his wings once more, pulled Danny close and wrapped his arm around the human before taking off from the ground and headed to his safe house. "Turn your head towards my chest, it'll make it easier to breathe for you as I fly and try not to look around too much" Jorel warned Danny and Danny was quick to follow his instructions this time, purely due to how terrified he is of the height they are above the ground. "Don't worry it will be over soon." Jorel assured him but Danny couldn't help but look down quickly and saw they were above water. "¡Eso espero!" Danny shouted as he quickly pressed his face against Jorel's chest and tightened his arms around Jorel's waist with a deadly strength. Jorel became worried that Danny might faint due to his fear so he tried to fly faster and higher, but not too high where the lack of oxygen could hurt Danny.
"Danny, breathe! You're hyperventilating!" Jorel told him as he realized how bad a state Danny was in. "We're nearly there, just hang on a little bit more" He continued, hoping Danny would focus on his voice enough to regain control but it seemed he didn't hear him. Danny's breath got caught in his throat and his eyes rolled to the back of his head. His hold on Jorel completely dropped and Jorel wasn't prepared in time to catch Danny's full weight and Danny slipped out of his hold. "Danny!" Jorel cried and instantly dove to catch him. As Danny fell, he came to and freaked out as he felt the speed he felt at and instantly fainted again. "Danny!" Jorel cried again as he struggled to catch up and quickly moved the bag so that he held it on his elbow and reached forwards with his arms to catch the human.
With some fear-powered speed, he managed to reach his arms under Danny and then quickly lifted himself up, catching Danny's weight with a painful beat of his wings. "Danny!" Jorel called, open to see Danny's eyes open but they remained shut. Danny had completely passed out so Jorel instantly returned to flying to his safe place at the fastest speed possible. Jorel's heart beating out of his chest as he struggled to calm down after that amount of fear blasting through him. "Don't worry Danny, I've got you" He said to the unconscious man, but mostly to himself as an attempt to calm himself down.
He reached his house and landed on the balcony before heading inside and placing Danny on the bed in his spare room. He then checked to make sure the human was still breathing and let out a loud sigh in relief as Danny started to come to. "I need to go sick" He threw out as he came to and rushed off the bed but didn't realize how high the bed was and fell and couldn't get back up in time before he threw up all over the ground. "Danny?" Jorel quietly said but Danny didn't get a chance to respond as he threw up again.
Jorel quickly went to find some cloth to clean up the mess and felt guilty about what's happening to the poor human. When he returned to Danny, he found the man curled up into the corner of the room crying his eyes out. Jorel just focused on cleaning up the mess before he focused on Danny and drawing him a bath so that he can get cleaned. "Come on Danny, I've made a bath ready for you" Jorel said quietly as he once again pulled Danny up to his feet. "¡Deja de hacer eso! And just tell me what is happening!" Danny said, his accent coming out really strong. "I'm so sorry Danny, I really am" Jorel told him as tears welled up in his own eyes. "¡No me importa, diablo! I just want to know why I had to leave Theresa behind! Why was John trying to kill us?! What did you do to him? What are you going to do to me and if John is going to kill us then WHY DID YOU LEAVE THERESA BEHIND!" Danny screamed at him as he pulled away from Jorel and moved as far away as he possibly could. Jorel all of a sudden just lost control of himself and his wings once again flew out, filling the room around him, causing Danny to cower in fear. "John was trying to kill us because I left his side to save your life! God was punishing me through punishing you because I was happy with a demon! And I didn't think he'd go after her" He said, calming down by the end and feeling bad for scaring Danny yet once again. "I'm sorry Danny, I'm freaking out trying to think of everything and trying to protect you from that I completely forgot about Theresa but I will fly back and get her and bring her to safety. I just didn't want to lose my best friend" Jorel ended with sadness in his tone as he just realized that Danny had called him the devil. "The bathroom is the door to the left once you leave this room. I will be back tonight" Jorel said and then left the room via the balcony and lifted himself up before flying off and Danny just stared in shock.
It broke his heart, the fact that Danny sees him as the devil when all he wanted to do was keep him safe. He will make sure Theresa is safe as well, although he was much more aware of her strength than Danny was. Jorel didn't believe it was his secret to speak about so he left Theresa to do as she will when it came to her existence and she did the same thing for Jorel in favour.
Once he arrived back in San José, he quickly found Theresa's home and explained everything to her before asking her to join him in flight back to Danny and she promptly agreed. And over the flight back to his, Theresa explained how she was beginning to get seriously worried for Danny as she has found him in terrible situations and has even had to break up a bar fight that Danny had purposely started, looking for a way out. This broke Jorel's heart even further as he wasn't aware of how long Danny had been suffering and still could not come up with a reason for it apart from God. He asked Theresa if she knew what was causing it but even she had no idea. He was worried about the state that Danny could be in once they returned to his so he picked up as much speed as possibly."Oh wow, your home is beautiful" Theresa whispered as she took in the scene before her. A three story building standing tall at the edge of a cliff and a rocky beach in front of it.
"Wait a minute, is that Danny at the top?!" She cried all of a sudden and Jorel felt his breath get caught up in his throat as his eyes confirmed it for him. "What is he doing and is that John behind him?!" Theresa asked, fear evident in her voice, and Jorel instantly recognized the foreigner. "It is!" Jorel snapped as they reached the roof before setting Theresa down as gently as he possibly could, despite wanting to attack the demon. He then began to fly at John and his blade came out in record time as he rushed towards the demon and Theresa rushed towards Danny. "You make another move and he will fall!" The demon threatened and Theresa and Jorel both came to an instant halt. "What are you doing John! Have you lost what little sense you had? Doing all this because I'd rather save a life then let him die just so I could possibly be happy?!" Jorel snapped as he set his feet on the roof and folded his wings back behind him and the demon's eyes flared up in anger.
"Well if he is dead then that will no longer be a problem, will it? Oh and before you try to speak sense into him, he cannot hear you or see you. He currently believes he's alone on this roof and that his precious hermosa Theresa has passed away" The Demon bragged with a grin and Theresa lost it. She screamed at him and rushed towards Danny at the fastest speed she could possibly muster but wasn't fast enough. Danny cried out her name, still trapped in John's control, and both Jorel and Theresa could feel the heavy heartbreak, and then he took the step just before Theresa was able to reach him.
"Danny! No!" Theresa screamed as she jumped off after him and Jorel lost control. He screamed at John and sped towards him with all of his God given strength, nothing but death and anger on his mind. He swung his blade but the demon managed to avoid it in the last second and Jorel only caught the top of John's arm and drew a small amount of blood. "YOU WILL DIE FOR THIS!" Jorel screamed at him in cold-blooded anger and the demon just laughed as he appeared behind the angel. "Was it you this whole time!?" Jorel screamed at him, struggling to keep his bearing as John kept appearing around him. John laughed again as he came to a standstill, all of a sudden, before nodding and backing away from Jorel and pulling out dual hell blades. "You should have left him for me!" John screamed at him and then rushed at Jorel. But each swing of John's arms, Jorel was able to match and block before John was able to get in a few slices to Jorel's chest before quickly backing away as Jorel's blade came swinging towards his throat. Jorel gasped as he struggled to ignore the piercing pain in his chest and the blood pouring down his chest and stomach.
"You promised you weren't like the other demons! You said you had grown to love them! You lied to me!" Jorel cried at him as he quickly closed the gap between the angel and demon and dodged John's moves before making his own moves but only being able to cut off the demons ear as John quickly backed out of the way. All of a sudden, a scream was heard right behind them and Theresa was suddenly rushing towards John in anger and heartbreak. She had no weapon but she couldn't think clearly, he just killed her Danny and she's going to get revenge. "Theresa, No!" Jorel screamed as he knew how much faster the demon was compared to her but she didn't care. She was on a warpath and there was no stopping her. John brought up the dual blades in preparation and Theresa's nail and teeth largened in size and sharpened to a deadly level. Jorel also moved in again and between Theresa and him, they were able to injure the demon quite seriously.
Jorel knew they needed an advantage so he once again, unfurled his wings and lifted up off the ground high enough to have an aim from above but struggled to have a clear shot. Theresa and John were battling too fast for Jorel to get a clear shot but then all of a sudden the fighting stopped and Theresa fell to the ground, one of John's blades embed in her chest. "Noo!" Jorel screamed as he threw his blade and watched as it landed directly in John's chest. John fell to his knees and was struggling to breath as he realized that he had just lost.. "You do know that I will just come right back, right? " He threw out in a winded voice and Jorel nodded as he landed directly in front of the demon. "But it won't be for another couple hundred years." He muttered before pulling his blade back out and watching as John let out a scream of pain before flames began to leap out of John and he quickly burnt to the ground, leaving behind a pile of ash.
Jorel refused to think about it and quickly rushed to Theresa's side. "Speak to me Theresa, please?!" Jorel begged him and gasped as Theresa's eyes flickered open for a brief second. "I've been feeding him" She whispered before succumbing to death, her body quickly decomposing before him. "No!" Jorel cried and he just sat there in shock. He couldn't believe how much he had lost in one day. Although it did confuse him when Theresa spoke her last words. He couldn't understand what she meant by saying that she had been feeding him.
"Danny? Did she mean she had been feeding Danny?" He asked himself and quickly flew down to the human. "Oh my god!" Jorel cried as he found what state the human was in and it caused him to fall to his knees in grief. There was no way that Danny could have survived the fall, let alone the injuries that he had received after he landed. Tears flooded out of his eyes and he just knelt by Danny's corpse for hours, struggling to wrap his head around anything that happened within the last day. He had completely forgotten about his deep wounds and as he managed to hold back any more tears and tried to figure out what he was going to do next, his vision suddenly clouded and he collapsed to the ground. When Jorel came back around, he was in a lot of pain with his chest. "Jorel, hold still, I need to fix your chest." Somebody told him and Jorel gasped as he recognized the voice.
"Danny!?" He cried as he looked up and found the man in question, standing above him. "Oh my god! Danny!" Jorel cried again and he sat up so that he was on the same level as Danny and then pulled him into his arms as fresh tears showed up in Jorel's eyes. "¿Qué carajo pasó?" Danny asked as he struggled to be careful with Jorel's wounds, completely oblivious to what has happened. "You died Danny, that's what happened! Oh my god, that's what Theresa meant by 'she's been feeding you'" Jorel realized as he struggled to control his emotions and gasped as he struggled to deal with the pain in his chest. He felt back down to the bed and struggled to keep his eyes open.
"What are you talking about? What the carajo do you mean I died?" Danny freaked out as he quickly understood what Jorel said and struggled to keep Jorel from passing out again. "John made you jump off the roof, Danny. Me and Theresa tried to stop him but he's evil, he got under our skins and he made you take the final step." Jorel told him quietly and Danny figured that speaking was helping the angel but as he realized what Jorel said,he was quickly shocked to his core. "Wait, Theresa is here?! Where is she?" Danny quickly threw out as he to the door in the fastest time he's ever done. "¿cuál es el fuc?" He spat out as he realized how fast he moved.
"Danny, you're a vampire. Theresa turned you by feeding you her blood since you began being under John's influence. You weren't ill, he was in your mind this entire I'm so sorry I didn't figure this out sooner. You have no idea how sorry I am" Jorel explained and Danny couldn't believe it, Theresa was a vampire this whole time without him knowing it. And everything he had been through the past couple months, all that pain was caused by a demon, demons and the devil is real and this terrified Danny. "Where is he now? We're not safe here, I need to find Theresa." Danny rambled as he looked around for his girlfriend and the demon. But Jorel quickly climbed out of bed and stopped Danny from leaving the room.
"Danny, you need to listen to me. John is dead, I killed him myself but I'm afraid i wasn't fast enough to save Theresa. She died during battle with the demon before I managed to smite him back to hell. I am so sorry Danny, I tried to be there for you and I tried to save Theresa and I tried my hardest to not let him get under my skin. I failed you so much" He fell to his knees after whispering the last words and couldn't hold back his own tears of failure as he realized just how badly he got everything wrong and how he just should have never gone to Costa Rica in the first place.
Danny fell to his knees as well as he heard that his beautiful Theresa had died and just stared at the ground in front of him, unaware of the tears pouring down the cheeks and how tightly he was holding his own chest. He was numb to everything around him and he decided that he didn't want to feel anymore. He was tired of emotions and being hurt, feeling guilt and grief is just painful and he doesn't want to feel it anymore. He just stood up and went over to Jorel and pulled him to his feet. He then realized Jorel was still injured and that Danny probably should help the angel.
"Vamos, we need to fix your chest still. And then we should bury Theresa and then you'll need to tell me how to stay alive in this new life" Danny told him before moving Jorel back to the bed. Jorel just stared at him after Danny made him lie back down on the bed, shocked to see how quickly Danny learnt to shut his emotions off, and this sent fear down his spine. "Danny, wait! Don't do that" Jorel told him and Danny froze in his tracks. "Do what? Save your life? I can let you die if you would like, but I just gathered you wanted to live." Danny said calmly, although refused to turn around and face Jorel. "You know that's not what I meant. If you stop yourself from feeling your emotions, it will only hurt you more in the future. It will twist you in something dark and evil." Jorel told him and Danny gasped but still refused to turn to face him, slowly starting to lose his grip on his heart. "Danny, you need to grieve and to recover." He said, quieter this time as his chest began to hurt him even more.
"¿No, por favor? No puedo sentir ese dolor otra vez." Danny whispered and Jorel only just about heard him over his own heart pumping in his ears. "Danny" Jorel whispered before his vision clouded over yet once again and he succumbed to the darkness.
….following Danny's side of the story….
Danny was struggling to hold his emotions back, but he knew that Jorel was right. But he pushed it to the back of his mind as he went to check to make sure that Jorel was still breathing. Once he was certain that Jorel was going to die that second, he went to find some medical supplies, although he was unaware of what he was doing and how to help Jorel. As he headed to the kitchen, he found someone knocking at the front door and went to answer it. "Hello?" Danny asked, unsure if he should speak his native tongue or not. "Salve, I am looking for Jorel Decker?" The woman at the door said and Danny nodded. "This is his home, I'm afraid Jorel cannot come to the door right now. Can I help with anything?" Danny offered, unwilling to give away the real nature of why Jorel couldn't answer the door.
"I am a warlock; my name is Marnie Ventress and I am a close friend of Jorel's. You do not need to hide what has happened from me. Is Jorel injured?" The Warlock asked Danny and Danny let out a sigh of relief before quickly nodding. He has been aware of Warlock's existence since he was a child. "I'm Daniel. Please help him, I do not know what to do" Danny asked her as he quickly led the warlock to where Jorel was lying. "He was in a fight with a demon which led to my death and not death. It's very confusing." Danny threw out as they entered Jorel's room. Danny went to lean against the wall next to the door, suddenly taken by panic and hunger and wanting to drain the warlock. "I don't know what to do, I don't know how I'm even here except apparently I was fed blood by my partner who turned out to be a vampire who has also just died so I am very confused right now" Danny moidered and didn't expect the warlock to hear him but she did. "Here, drink this" The warlock said and then all of a sudden Danny was holding a cup filled with blood. "Why would I drink this?! This is blood!" Danny freaked out but couldn't bring himself to stop smelling the cup and realizing how much he craved the contents. "If you do not drink it, you will die" The warlock said and then focused on Jorel, not caring any further about Danny and his inner battle.
And it was an intense battle because Danny had only just now realized what he had become. He was a monster, a vampire. As bad as the demon who cursed him to this life. All of a sudden, his emotions erupted out of Danny's grip. Tears broke out of his eyes in the fastest it has ever happened in his entire life and the heaviest sobs broke out of his chest as he let loose all the emotions he has trapped since he first woke up to this new life. He threw the blood down his throat in lightning fast speed and found that the cup filled right back up by itself but Danny was past caring about the present. His mind focused on Theresa and it broke him. He missed her so much already and he hated how he was incapable of being there for her when she needed him. She died thinking Danny was dead. She will never be there again, he's completely alone. Jorel is more than likely on his way to joining her and Danny couldn't. Danny is cursed to this life forever, unable to join Theresa. He couldn't control himself, not the sobs ripping out of his heart, not the tears ripping out of his soul, his entire being just collapsed and he felt like it might actually aid him to join his soulmate. And Jorel is going to join her, he's going to leave Danny alone as well. He's lost his brother as well as his soul mate. He couldn't stop himself going over and over how much he's lost in his mind as he continued to drink the blood, completely oblivious to the warlock healing Jorel in front of him. He couldn't see anything past the ocean of tears.
His heart was physically hurting and numbing the rest of the body. He couldn't feel anything past the pain and there was a lot. He started thinking about how he let the demon control him in such a manner; How he let himself get seriously ill and pained; How he resorted to drinking and on the verge of suicide for months. He suddenly remembered how calm he was at the top of the roof, and how no one else was there and he was all alone because nobody cared enough for him. He was aware of how it really was now and yet he still couldn't shake that feeling and now he is truly all alone.
"Daniel!" The warlock shouted, snapping Danny back to reality to an extent. "Daniel, listen to me, Jorel has been healed!" The warlock informed him, holding hers hands tightly on Danny's shoulder. She was completely aware of how Danny has prevented himself from feeling any emotion since he woke up to being a vampire and that he has switched his humanity back on. Danny still was unable to control his sobbing and tears and the warlock quickly moved out of the way for the only one who might have a chance of getting through to him.
"Danny? Listen to my voice. It's me, Jay" Jorel said quietly as he pulled the sobbing man into his arms the way he did when Jorel first found Danny when he was struggling as a human. Danny's sobbing slowed down a little bit in disbelief. "Jay?" Danny whispered and Jorel let out a sigh of relief. "It's me, Danny. I'm here" Jorel responded and Danny hugged him tight enough that Jorel almost instantly begged for Danny to let go but he managed to hold back as he knew just how much Danny needed him right now. "It's just Theresa and you and the devil is real and and…" Danny started rambling but Jorel quietly stopped him in his tracks. "I know Danny, I know." He muttered as he tightened his own hold on the vampire as sobs continued to rack out of Danny's chest.
Jorel then remembered about the warlock watching this scene unfold and looked up at her. "Thank you, Marnie. I truly appreciate your help." Jorel told her and the warlock shook her head. "No need to thank me, I'm just glad I got here in the nick of time. I'll be in the kitchen when you are both ready" Marnie told him and Jorel nodded and smiled in gratification as the woman walked out of the room.
"Fun fact; most vampires take years, not mere hours, to be able to switch back on their humanity." Jorel said and Danny let out a small laugh as he slowly began to regain control over himself. His sobbing was slowly dying down although the tears weren't going to let up anytime soon on their own accords. "It hurts Jay, I don't want it to hurt anymore." Danny whispered and Jorel nodded. "I know it does, but don't worry. Will recover, it may take time but one day, it won't hurt anymore. I promise" Jorel promised him and Danny let his hold on Jorel loosen slightly. "Sorry, I think I might have been suffocating you by accident," Danny said as he began to pull away from Jorel. "You do not have to worry about that, I was completely fine." Jorel assured him and Danny gave him a small smile as he worked to control his tears. "I'm proud of you Danny, I really am. You're one of the strongest vampire's I have ever met, and I have met hundreds in my lifetime." Jorel told him and Danny laughed at him. Jorel then climbed to his feet before helping Danny to his.
"You are completely healed; Marnie did a really good job" Danny muttered as he worked to wipe away the last of his tears and Jorel laughed. "Don't say that around her, you will insult her ego" Jorel said and Danny laughed as they left the room to meet up with Marnie.
…..Back to reality….
"Holy shit dude!" Dylan threw out as he took it all in. Danny sighed from where he had stood when he entered the room to tell his part of the story at the end. Matt, all of a sudden, jumped up from where he had sat down and gave Danny a strong hug. "Um, what's going on?" Danny asked and Jorel let out a chuckle as he wiped away the tears that had escaped during the story. "Dude, how are you always so cheery these days? After everything you went through?" Matt asked him and Danny realized what was going and rolled his eyes. "How did they get you talking?" He asked Jorel. Danny has always been aware of how much Jorel needed to just air the past because holding himself back all these years was taking a toll on the angel. "They wouldn't leave me alone unless I gave them what they wanted." Jorel informed Danny and they just laughed as Dylan rolled his eyes.
"Jay, I'm so sorry that happened to you two. I do not know this demon but I assure you he's still a long time from returning to this place. If I knew it was because of that, I wouldn't have retaliated so much" Jordan admitted as he showed that he had been listening in on them this whole time and Jorel sighed, "I didn't mean to be an absolute twat to you, I just couldn't see past the demon factor." Jorel muttered and felt evil, and Jordan sighed sadly as he saw Jorel pull a disgusted face at himself. "Jay, don't do that to yourself. It's perfectly normal to hold on to grudges like this, I'm just happy you were finally able to talk about it and get it off your chest." Jordan told him as he moved to be in front of the angel. "And I can point out right now, one obvious difference between the two demons. One actually gives a shit about his friends and family." Danny said and Jorel let out a sad chuckle.
"Now come on, we need to focus on our record, otherwise it will never be released" Jordan told everyone as he headed towards the studio room and everyone was quick to follow him and Jorel found himself staring at Jordan as he walked out of the room. Danny was the only one to notice Jorel acting this way and held back behind everyone to talk with Jorel.
"Jay, it was almost two hundred years ago, I think you should try to move past this with your heart wide open." Danny said with a grin and Jorel laughed as he understood what the vampire was hinting at. "It's why I got so nervous and doubtful about Jordan to begin with, I was instantly attracted to him. God must really dislike me at this point if my taste is just in male demons." Jorel said with a quiet chuckle and Danny rolled his eyes. "Jay, you have been left here on earth, surrounded by beings with a free will. I'd take this as a sign. God doesn't mind who people fall in love with." Danny pointed out and Jorel had to admit to himself that Danny had a point but he still couldn't shake the feeling that he was well and truly forgotten by God. "Danny, I think he has truly just forgotten about me" Jorel admitted with a tear welling up in his eye. "So what if he has, I mean look at us, three of us are vampires; one is a warlock with demon blood in his veins and another is a demon. What I'm trying to say is, welcome to the club" Danny told him and Jorel just sighed as he realized that Danny was right, they were just a group of godly rejects.
"How did we become so lucky, Danny? Despite everything that has happened" Jorel stated and Danny nodded and then they both quickly headed after the rest of the group. Jorel promised to himself that he will try his hardest to move on from the past the way that Danny managed too.
…... 2 months later
"I am so happy you decided to give me a chance Jorel. I am so sorry about what happened between you, Danny and Theresa because of that bastard all those years ago," Jordon says, as he and Jorel sit on the Hollywood sign late in the afternoon. The sun hadn't quite yet set, but it was an idea that Danny had given them. The vampire had tried his best to give the angel tips on how to overcome all the guilt he had lived with for so long. He had used the idea that as the sun sets at the night you leave all of that guilt behind as you know soon enough there will be a new day and a chance for new memories with all of the people they had met and bonded with. New and better memories with Jordon who had gone above and beyond what was needed to prove to the angel that there were more good demons than bad ones out in the world.
"Thank you for proving that there are still good demons out there. That was the worst time of my life but I am grateful that Theresa had made the choice to begin turning Danny otherwise I don't think I would have coped. I think I am ready to leave that all behind me now," Jorel replies. He had been holding the demon's hand for a little while and for once the usually edgy angel felt comfortable. it was also unusual for the omega who had spent his lifetime making up his own rules and in his own words "being the black bird on the white album." Jordon however suited the Alpha role extremely well; he was a natural born leader so much so that the band often joked that he was the dad of the band despite the fact that most of them were older.
It made sense why despite all Jorel's fears the omega still didn't fully trust Jordon. He knew what it meant in terms of his own status and he would have to be seen as following the leader when he had been the leader for so long. "Who would have thought that the great omega Jorel Decker would finally be won over by my charms," Jordon says, there was a bit of cheekiness in his tone but it didn't stop the angel from almost pushing the cocky alpha male off the sign. "Yeah right, what charms do you have?" the angel replies, to which the demon responds by smashing his lips onto the omega's. They both nearly went crashing down the Hollywood sign if it were not for Jordon's quick thinking to get them secured. It took a minute but Jorel did eventually kiss back.
"That among a few other things," Jordon replies, as they look to the city of Los Angeles going on oblivious to the alpha and omega and their somewhat of a first date. The sun had finally started setting making the city that never sleeps look amazing. Jorel cursed under his breath that the vampire he had saved was once again right. Everything was right and he was finally able to leave the past behind him just as his friend had done. The idea of being with an alpha demon like Jordon suddenly didn't seem so bad after all. "I guess you have won then," Jorel says. In one last act of omega strength for a while Jorel showed off his wings and carried Jordon safely to the ground. They didn't need any verbal confirmation of the new found relationship. Their instincts told them everything.
And that is the end of another one shot. Apologies to FiggyPlum if this is not everything you thought it would be.
