Danse Macabre
Chapter 6
Jeff
"Wow!" I say as we walk back to Slender's house. "Coming back to life makes you feel really refreshed."
"Yeah…" I hear Azrael mumble behind me. I turn around to see that she's really pale.
"Hey, you okay?" I ask as she stumbles towards me.
"Yeah...I'm fine, okay? Don't worry about me." Azrael speaks between gasps of breaths.
"Uh...alright."
"Ahh!" Azrael gasps and grabs my arm.
"WHOA!" I yell. "You are totally not okay! Here let me help you." I reach for her arms to help her get up and she smacks my hands away.
"No!" She whispers harshly leaving me in shock. "I said I'm fine…"
"Well, you don't look fine. You look like you're going to keel over, and technically, you just did." I say.
"I'm just…tired. Very tired." Azrael tries to get up but trips and falls to her knees.
"Rae!" She glares at me when I call her that. "Let me help you."
"Let a mere human help me?!" Azrael shouts, "No! I'm the Archdemon Azrael Michaelis! I….I…"
I stare at her as she begins to choke back tears.
"I have developed feelings for a human. I can't do this anymore. I want to be mortal."
"Wait what?" I ask. "You like me!?"
Azrael quickly turns her head towards me, blushing bright red like a tomato.
"What!? I didn't say that! I-" Azrael shrieks.
I smirk and raise an eyebrow at her.
"I didn't-"
"Does someone need a hug from Jeffy?" I ask playfully.
Tears well up in her eyes. "WAHHHHH!" She cries as I hold her close.
"I'm sorry. I probably look really weak right now. I can't believe it. I'm a demon. Oh, I bet I look terrible." Azrael mutters into my shoulder.
"No," I say to Azrael. "You look human."
