Of Love, Daemons and a Frenchman
The words daemon and
demon are used interchangeably in the fic. This is done
on purpose. The word daemon is the Latin word for demon. Latin was a very
widely used language back in the Dark and Middle Ages and the Belford, the
demon in this story is from that time, so he would use that word instead of
demon.

Mia walked along the upstairs hall of her grandfather's mansion. She just came
from the study room pulling another all-nighter on the computer. Deep dark
circles inked their way under her eyelids and her hair looked as though she
housed a nest of birds.
Walking away from the office she started to chew on a crispy red apple which
was left by the computer for a mid-night snack. (But it's more like a
mid-morning snack now) While she was nibbling on the apple contently she caught
sight of a certain blond man carrying a dozen of assorted red roses.
She became instantly wide-awake as her heavy lashes that shadowed her cheeks
flew up, stopping her dead in her tracks. That's
right, it's almost March 14! White Day is the day when men give chocolates and
flowers to women for St. Valentines. I completely forgot it was girl's day to
give chocolates last February Mia took another bog bite of her apple Mia, you're an idiot… I didn't even get
anything for anyone… damn! I even forgot to give some to my boss. She
mentally smacked her forehead, Great and I bet every
young girl at the University gave that dip-head a box of chocolates.
A hint of jealousy broke threw her veins as she remembered what Sage was
carrying in his hands. Flowers… Her
jealousy faded away and was replaced by a knife that dug itself in her heart.
Sage bought those roses for someone else and she dreaded the fact they were for
someone special. Why can't I know someone
like that…is it too hard!? Mia ached
for someone special, someone who would deliver her chocolates and beautiful
flowers. So I could pig out on the
chocolates and be lured into depression. The flowers will die and wilt away
within weeks. Knowing the way I care for plants it'll be lucky if it could
survive a day…yeah, Mia, you're a real optimist girl…
Sage even managed to gather all the right roses that represented all emotions
of love and friendship. Gah, there is no way that guy is normal!! Men aren't supposed to know anything romantic;
they're supposed to be colorblind!! She let go of a restless breath, Well, at least he didn't buy any chocolates or
rice cakes, he obviously doesn't lov- She stopped
her thoughts as she saw Rowen running up the stairs towards Sage room.
"SAGE! You forgot the chocolates, bud. Ya` left them downstairs on the kitchen counter. If I
didn't see them Kento would have." He rushed
into the bedroom Sage was occupying.
Mia's heart hit the floor. Damnit Rowen, couldn't
you have eaten them?!?! Mai squared
off her shoulders and stormed towards her room, gobbling the apple down to its
core.
As she passed the room where Sage occupied she couldn't help an evil thought
from invading her head. She looked down at her apple with amused interest, I'll just do what Kento
does with his food when he's done and there's no trash can nearby. Mia
threw the core of the apple behind her, landing right in of the entrance of the
bedroom. Hope you hit the floor… hard!!
Mia's whish came true. Sage never noticed the 'eaten apple'
when he came rushing out. He stumbled and lost his balance, landing face first
into the carpet and legs spread eagle in the air.
Sage staggered up and managed to control his composure before anyone noticed he
fell under a spell of klutz syndrome. He looked around to see what he tripped
over and saw the object in question. It was an apple, not just any red apple, oh-no, it was an apple which had been
eaten and thrown onto the floor carelessly. Only one person could do that: KENTO!! You overgrown ape-man-overeater-barbarian!
You left your damn food on the ground again! Sage glared at the apple as
though it was the plague, Has this man
ever heard of a trashcan! Sage wanted nothing more then to tell Kento about his problems with his disorderliness in person.
But acting upon his anger would make Sage loose his composure and he cherished his
restraints above anything else. Therefore, he would keep his trap shut. Noticing
the winkles in his pants Sage began to dust them out, mumbling to the Gods why
they ever created Kento.
Mia saw the whole scene and bristled while she entered her bedroom, only to
slam the door shut. That wasn't a fall!!
His face barley faltered!!! Her mind screamed angrily.
The load sound of a door slamming caught Sage's attention. Why is Mia slamming doors now?
He set his mouth in annoyance. Women…
too damn emotional when it's that time of month…
"Damn!" A load curse echoed flowed by a heavy body hitting
to the ground. "CraaaaP!!!!"
Sage looked behind him with a dry smile on his face. Rowen
had found the half eaten core of an apple as well and to Sage's amusement, Rowen's
fall was worse then his.
"KENTO! I'M GOANNA KILL YOU!!!" Rowen staggered
up to his feet and made a mad dash to the stairs. That dim-scull!! I'LL SHOW NO
MERCY! Rowen clenched his jaw as he entered the kitchen to find an
unexpected Kento. You're
getting it man!! Big time!
If only they knew who really left the apple behind.
