So, updated again...
Chris orbed to a back street beside Milly's café and walked round the corner to get inside.
He saw her the second he entered the room, she was running around, hurrying to get from one table to another, setting tables, cleaning tables, taking orders, but she didn't seem shy at all. She ran around with a big open smile and was as charming as if she had nothing in the world to worry about. Was she just a good actress, or had she lied to him, Chris wondered along wit wondering about, when he got this suspicious. He figured he became this throughout all those years, when demons where around they're house almost every day, when Milly saw him. Her whole attitude fell apart the moment she realized it was him, dropped the tray she carried once again and hurried to clean everything up, obviously embarrassed. She kept her head down and her eyes downcast as Chris walked over to her.
"Hey", he said, kneeling down, "not your day today, or is it?"
"Nah...", Milly took a deep breath and looked into his face looking anything but cool with the situation. Although it wasn't Chris' way, he helped Milly cleaning up her mess and gave her the tray for good, he didn't like it. He thought he seemed too nice, he didn't want her to think he was nice. If she believed him to be, she would be allover him, wanting something and he didn't want that.
"Thank you", taking the tray, she ran over to the counter and said something to the woman behind it, then returned, taking off her working apron.
"Got time now?", Chris asked?"
"Just got myself time...I got an hour", Milly smiled brightly.
"Well, then...", he turned around and left, she followed him into the back street.
"Hey, wait, where are you going?", the girl asked behind him.
He looked at her. Her long brown hair were falling over her left shoulder and she looked as if he was trying to rape her in this alleyway.
"Nowhere to be afraid of", he laughed, "come on, I'm taking you to place where you can tell me everything and noone will listen." -She still didn't look quiet sedated.
"How will you take us anywhere from here?"
"Just trust me", he gave her a charming look and reached out for her.
She hesitated shortly but then took his hand and Chris orbed them.
Chris and Milly arrived on the Golden Gate Bridge short time after. Poor Milly clung to him before she had even seen where he had took her.
"You orbed us?", she supposed, sounding rather uncomfortable.
"Inhale...Exhale, just breath normally and you'll feel better. Everyone feels kinda dizzy after orbing the first time, that's okay."
"Hm", was the only answer he got, he felt her fingers on his back.
"And you can let go of me now."
"Sorry", she removed herself too abruptly to notice where she was, trembled two steps back and then saw San Francisco's Sky line and the bay. Her mouth dropped open.
"Oh my..."
"No one will eavesdrop us here...", Chris said, sitting down.
"This is so amazing!", Milly sat beside him, "D' you come here often?"
"Almost everyday"
"It's beautiful, thank you for sharing this place"
"No big deal", he sounded a bit repellant, which made Milly play with her ring again.
"Er...you know...my problem..."
"Yeah, let's get to the point"
"Right. You know, I'm a witch, I've been to magic school ever since. I can freeze things..."
"Like time?"
"No, literally freeze, like icing?!"
"Oh, okay"
"But that isn't the thing"
"So what is it?"
"My Grandma made this...contract...with a demon clan. That is a long story. She wanted to save my Granddad by it. He had a bad disease and she didn't see another way but to promise all her daughters and their daughters to this clan. My Mom died four years ago. They took her. I found out two months ago when I found Gran's diary. She writes about the contract and the signs she saw, when they came to take my mother. I've seen those signs, Chris. And I have those dreams...they are after me. I'm the last condition of the contract."
Please send comments, is that a good direction?? Thanks.
