Chapter 3

Date to remember

We walked into the diner and looked around. It looked 50's, with rock guitars hanging on the walls; which were tan, a neon clock hanging over a marble bar that had the aroma of hamburgers wafting from the kitchen.

Drew led me over to an empty red booth with a marble tabletop and sat across from me.

"This place has the best burgers in Florida" he said, "in my opinion at least". I smiled

"If you say then its probably true" I said picking up my menu. He grinned and picked his up too.

While he looked at his menu, I actually took the time to look at him. He had light brown hair that was in his emerald green eyes, his full dark pink lips were in a faint smile. He had a kind of child-like face. The type of face that had girls all of Florida swooning.

"what can I getcha?" an elderly woman asked.

"cheeseburger for me May." Drew said handing her his menu.

"same" I said handing her my menu as well.

"Okie Dokie." she said, "2 cheeseburgers comin right up!"

When she was gone I looked at drew and smiled.

"you come here a lot?" I asked.

He smiled sheepishly. "Yea"

"how long? I asked

"since I was a kid. My dad and I would come here when we didn't feel like cooking." he said shrugging.

"and your mom?" I asked cautiously. I didn't want to assume. But I had a good feeling why she wasn't mentioned.

"she died when I was 10." he said his face an emotionless mask.

"I'm sorry! I didn't want to assume.!" I said feeling bad for asking.

That was one of my problems. I hated assuming but I usually apologized because I usually assumed right.

"you didn't know." he said.

"that's pretty!" he said suddenly intrigued by my pendent. "where'd you get it?" he asked.

"I've had it for as long as I can remember." I lied casually.

It was better than saying 'Oh this? Yea it from a talking dog.'. Oh yea! There'd be a second date!

It was while I was thinking this that I realized something bad. Something REALLY bad

The sun was setting.

'Oh Snap!' I thought panicking. 'This is so NOT good!'

I looked out the window beside us and saw something gathering in the shadows.

'Oh Snap! Oh Snap!' I looked from the gathering shadows to Drew and back again so fast my neck ached.

"Are you ok?" Drew asked. SNAP! He noticed! "You look a little….scared?" He started to look out the window but I reached out and took his hand.

"I'm fine!" I said quickly. "I'm just a little scared of the dark, is all!" I plastered a smile on my face.

He gave me an ' are you kidding me?' look. "O..kay? May?" he looked over his shoulder. "Can we have those burgers 2 go?"

I exhaled in slight relief. Wow! I didn't know I was holding my breath! Wonder how long! What was I worrying about? I looked out the window confused. And just about screamed! OKAY! NOT CONFUSED ANYMORE!

A demon was hovering right outside the window!

'Fury!' I thought breathing in through my nose and out through my mouth.

'Yes, princess?' came the always calm, deep, reverberating thought of Fury.

'Help! Our dates not over and the demons are stirring!' I thought still calming down.

'Don't worry about it. Skylar's got it.' Fury thought untroubled, like always.

'Skylar?' I questioned. Why did that name sound familiar?It rang with familiarity.

'Do you remember him?' he thought hearing the familiar ring of the name in my mind.

'No' I thought a little sad. The name still rang. Why was it ringing in the first place? Names never rung like a bell in my mind!

Fury sighed 'Skylar is very important to you.'

That's it? Nice Fury! Get my curiosity why don't ya!

"Thanks May!" Drew said bringing me back to the diner.

"Ready?" he asked looking at me.

"Yeah"

The ride home was long and quiet. And I got the feeling he didn't want a second date.

"I'll call you" he said when he pulled up to my house.

"I bet you will" I said and got out. I walked into the house and up the stairs towards my room. When I got to the top of the stairs I realized f Fury hadn't met me at the door like usual when I would walk through the door!

"FURY!" I said loudly. And sprinted for my bedroom. I through my door open and flicked the light on.

"close the door, princess." Fury said looking at me. I walked in and shut the door. I couldn't stop staring at the sight in front of me.

Fury was sitting on the ground in front of my bed where a man of about 24 was sitting. He was god-like! Perfect angular features, tan skin, muscular build, dirty blonde messy hair, and metallic silver eyes that darted up to my blue ones when I flicked on the light. He stood up and BOY! Was he tall!

Fury's amber eyes were glittering with happiness.

"Who the hell are you?!" I blurted out. O lordy! that's embarrassing!

He smiled. My heart melted.

"I'm Skylar." His voice was deep and smooth. "I've been looking for you for a long time, Your Highness." he said. Than bowed low.

What?
