CHAPTER SIX
Saix and I had made it a thing between us to meet up just to see each other every few nights a week and we slept in that barn sharing secrets and memories and I became more and more attracted to him and I believed he was as well. It was even getting hard for me not to kiss him, but I had to hold that back, our scents would be mixed for much longer if I gave in. We continued this through the years, for two years to be exact and now it was a cool July evening as we laid where I had died and we watched as the sunset below the horizon holding hands and I wrapped my wing around the blue haired angel. I mentioned stroking his hair since we had come to terms with our feeling a year and half ago, "I love you."
"I love you," he reiterated and we laid our foreheads on each other's and sighed deeply. I smiled and held back my insanely strong urge to kiss him. I closed my eyes and lightly breathed on him. I then smelled an overwhelming scent of an angel and I noticed Saix freak out and as I opened my eyes, a man in a white rob appeared in front of us. I gulped and scuttled a bit away from Saix. Saix stuttered "H...h...hi God..."
"Greetings, Saix. I do hope you're hanging out with an angel with soot covered wings and not some vermin of a demon," he announced. I looked away with a glare as I remembered how much angels hated my kind. Saix informed sincerely, "No, sir. I was hanging out with a demon... I know I shouldn't be, but I was in love with him when I was living and I found myself still in love with him after my demise..." God looked confused before his eyes widened and asked, "Was that the demon you talked to me about? How you prayed to stop loving for all those years? That demon?" I glanced to my lover and he fell silent, holding his down. God demanded then, "Saix Wiether, answer me?!" Damn... God was more pissy than I thought he would be. I looked to Saix and he was nodding shamefully and he merely whispered out, "Yes... yes he is, sir..." He looked up and then informed making my heart sink, "I know... I've done wrong. I deserve the maximum punishment..." God nodded and informed, "You do deserve to be in the Netherworld, Saix, yes."
"Please, I'll go for him! It was my fault for making him fall in love with me, it was all me. He just got caught in my trap like everyone else," I announced. I didn't want Saix to suffer like that, that would be worse than all my crimes combined if I allowed that for him. I heard God tell me as he looked me in the eyes, "You both deserve the Netherworld, but you are under Lucifer's control, not mine." Speak of the devil, he appeared beside God. The angel explained the situation and now Lucifer was glaring at me. I stood up and questioned, "I'm going to the Netherworld, aren't I?"
"What if I become a demon instead?" Saix spoke up as he stood beside me and I was surprised he even made the offer. Lucy glared at him confusedly before looking to God who had a smirk as he asked, "Lucifer, my once loyal angel, it hasn't been done in centuries, but if Saix has truly fallen in love, he can only go to Hell. I don't want some demon to turn angel."
"And that Axel would not and now he won't have to suffer another round on the rack, correct, Axel?" I rubbed the back of my head before simply nodding. Lucifer walked up to Saix and asked, "What's the most wrong things you've done?" The blue haired man sighed and confessed, "I fell in love with a killer... a demon and in Heaven I ran from castration." God rose his brow to that and glared at him again. Lucifer just smirked and shrugged mentioning, "One of the most innocent demons I'll ever have in Hell, but I don't want that penis of yours suffering." Saix looked confused and I smiled, giggling a little. Lucifer then turned Saix around roughly and touched his fingers to his back where his wings sprouted and a black dust flowed from his hands and then cursed Saix's wings. I was in awe as I watched his pure white wings turn to pitch black... They suited him better. Lucifer then looked to me and stated, "You're in charge of changing him out of that dumb rob. Dress the demon properly." I nodded before offering my hand to my lover and he grabbed it willing. I snapped my fingers and we appeared in my room and before I did anything else, I cupped his cheeks in my hands and pressed my lips to his, pressing his body against the wall in the process. My hands went down his body smoothly and slowly as I felt him up; he felt tense, but he had mentioned how he'd never had sex before.
"Relax yourself. You know you want this," I whispered into his mouth and I pulled away to look into his eyes and stroke his cheek. Saix still looked tense as he mentioned, "I, I do want you, but my feelings for you just shot up like a rocket and now that I finally am able to live a life with you, I don't know how to deal with it." I smiled as I slowly blinked. I pressed my body closer to his, my lust for him was already clear and so was his, but I could see where his fear arose. I insisted, "You will love what I can give you, darling. You just have to relax yourself, alright? Take some deep breathes and don't be afraid to touch me, I'm not going to hurt you, I promise." Saix took a shaky sigh before breathing in and out. He then placed his hands on my hips and I placed my mouth on his lips, closing my eyes and letting our lusts combine. He backed me up onto my bed where we fell, flung our clothes off and pleasured each other. It was the most amazing experience in the world. I even liked it better than what Lucifer could give me. I stroked his back as he laid on me, heavily breathing.
"Sex is amazing..." he insisted and I giggled and corrected "My sex is amazing and so is yours... I've missed having it like that..." Saix glanced up to me with a raised brow and smirked as he commented "You narcissist." I laughed and simply nodded before my lover relaxed again. I told him just so knew, "We're hooked. We belong to each other and no one else." He answered slightly mumbled by his position, "I don't want anyone else so you have nothing to worry about, Axel." That was exactly what I wanted to hear from him. I then glanced to the rob on the floor and burnt it with a smile and Saix gazed confusedly at me.
"Come, let's find you some decent clothes" I proposed patting his side to try and urge him. He groaned, but slid off me. I got up and dressed myself before tossing an outfit to him and mentioning "Welcome to Hell." Saix smiled and then got himself dressed in my clothes and damn, did he looked sexy as fuck in the suit. I helped him straighten his shirt as I posed, "Do you want to see your reflection? Because damn you are hot..."
"Am I?" Saix asked and I nodded. I pulled him to my vanity and my lover looked as impressed as I did about how he looked. He then traced his own scar remarking, "Damn... that's a really big scar..." I mentioned resting my arm on his shoulder, "It still doesn't take away from your attractiveness, at least I don't think so. It makes you look pretty bad-ass if you ask me." Saix smiled to me and kissed my lips to that. As he pulled away though, he glanced back to the mirror, touching himself in it. He mentioned, "I haven't actually seen myself since my last day of life…"
"It's been that long, Saix?" I posed being most surprised. I needed a mirror to do my hair up the way I had it so I was always looking at myself. I watched my lover shake his head before he replied, "No… I never even glanced into waters. I mean, you can't get a decent reflection anyways, but it would be something." He sighed before telling me, "I always wondered why some people seemed scared of me when I appeared." I frowned a bit as he stated that.
"People were reallyfearful of you? And you think it's the scar and not the fact that someone dead is appearing in front of them?" I laughed a bit, but he glared at me, insisting, "I'm not that scary of a person, am I?" Being a bit flirty, I told him, caressing his shoulders, "Not to this demon. Unless you mean scarily sexy."
"I'm being serious," he insisted and I sighed. I had to ask then, "Do you want my honest opinion then?" Saix nodded, adding, "Yeah. I really do."
"I think it's your tone and the way you come off. You're very…"
"Impatient with stupid fucks?" Saix suggested and I smirked, saying, "I'd be lying if I said that wasn't it." He sighed, but I kissed his cheek and informed, "But now that's what makes pick-ups fun. Scaring the shit out of them? Watching them trying to escape even though they can't?" I noticed the ex-angel smirk as I said that. He stated, leaning his head on my shoulder, "I don't think you've changed much, especially when you say things like that, Axel." I raised my brow and hadto ask, "Why do you say that?" He laughed a bit before leaning to kiss my lips, then explaining "You still enjoy seeing pain and suffering in peoples' eyes, but now they're not living, but actually… That still makes them on the same status as yourself, just as when you were alive." I hadn't thought about it that way, but I couldn't say that he wasn't right.
"Perhaps I am more like how I use to be thanI really thought" I noted with a smirk. Saixhuffed out a laugh before informing, "Doesn't matter me in the slightest. I fell in love with a serial killer already so I have no doubts I love the demon he became." I took a loving sigh before telling him in a whisper to his ear, "Good… because you're not allowed to leave." I slid my hand up his neck and he begged, "Axel… Give me the heaven you gave your victims before you gave them Hell." I smirked, promising "Believe me, I plan to for the rest of eternity."
"I'll always get a piece of Heaven with you then?" Saix questioned and I laughed seductively and nodded. I kissed his neck before prompting, "Come on, I'll give you the grand tour." He whined as he slouched on me "Really, Axel? When I'm turned on?"
"Told you, it's the most normal thing down here. Except, uh, now I'm gonna be a greedy fucker if anyone tries anything on you cause you're mine," I insisted and I was serious. I wasn't going to allow anyone else to even touch him. Saix waited for centuries to bewiththe man he fell in love with and now that I was dead and demonic? I wanted to finally give him that wish. Not only that, but I wanted to enjoy this feeling of being truly in love for the first time.
"Well… fine then. As long as you're the only one allowed to help me," he proposed and I insisted, "Oh, believe me, my demon, if anyone so touches you, I'm setting them ablaze." Saix glanced at me curiously, then posed, "You can do that?" I smirked and pulled my hand away before igniting it on fire and Saix's eyes widened. I blew the flame into embers just as I yanked him by the hand to start the tour of Hell. He seemed impressed or at least interested which I was grateful to know. As we walked on, I was also happy when weran into Xion. I greeted with a smirk "Yo! Remember when I was talking about falling in love with that angel?" It was Saix to speak up first, "You talked about me?"
"Rather often he talked about an angel that does describe you," Xion insisted with a small laugh in her voice and questioned "So? Lucy let you keep him? An innocent soul? But made him a demon?" I nodded before telling her, "It was either he earned black wings or to have him be sent to the Netherworld and I couldn't have that happen." Saix smiled, pulling hair behind his ear as he glanced down.
"Which I don't know how to thank you enough for, Axel," he insisted and Xion remarked, "This demon can do remarkable things." I grew confused to what Xion meant. I had to pose, "What do you mean by that?" She shrugged, though her smug smirk showed that she had many ideas floating in her mind. I sighed, smiling. I ruffled her hair a bit, replying "Fine, keep your thoughts a secret. I'll figure them out eventually."
"I'll tell you one day, Axel. Just know that I do look up to you. You were a bad human, but as a demon, you're pretty awesome," she told me and I couldn't help but to smile. I watched as she flew up a bit and remarked, "I'll let you two enjoy yourselves. Off to see Kairi!" She snooped above, causingSaix and I to have to bend down to avoid being hit before vanishing.
"That's one of the newest demons I trained. She's certainly learned a lot and she reminds me of me in a way," I commented.
"Nah. There's no one else like you" Saix remarked and I joked, "Thank God." We glanced at each other and laughedwitheach before I kissed his hand. I insisted, "Come on, sexy. Let's continue our tour." He nodded and followed me obediently.
As we walked, I began thinking about how well Saix would adjust to this life here in Hell and to my utmost surprise, by two and a half weeks it was like he was a true demon. He even learned his power which was strength and that didn't surprise me at all. Though, I was teaching him to wield fire just a bit too. We were sitting inside my room even now and I was having him concentrate on igniting a flame of his own.
"You can do it, I believe in you, Saix," I informed. My lover sighed, but closed his eyes with his palms out and I watched as he focused and soon, his hands were twitching a bit before he gasped and as did I. A small blue flame sparked from his palm. He opened his eyes and a wide smile was on his face. I remarked, "Great! Now make it bigger!" He nodded and he did just that, he had the flame soar above our heads. He seemed scared that it got that big, but I laughed and capped his flame with my palm, forcing it down. I told him, "Now that you wield flames, they can't hurt you just so you know."
"Really?" he posed and I nodded. I lit my own flame and pet his hair with my fire and nothing happened to him. He was surprised, but smiled brightly before he lunged at me in a hug. I laughed as I fell back a little, hugging him back. Though, it was then for the first time that my skin touched his wing since he had been changed and I was so surprised.
"Saix? Wow… you're wings…" I stuttered out. He glanced back and asked sounding almost worried "What? Are they okay? They feel fine." I shook my head and answered "No, I mean, there's nothing wrong with them. It's just…"
"Spit it out!"
"They're still as amazingly soft and silky as they were when they were white," I insisted and he glanced to me with wide eyes, clearly surprised as well.
"I didn't expect that. I expected them to feel like yours," Saix mentioned and I nodded. I took my hand and stroked his wings as I took a deep sigh. I insisted as I did, "I'm always going to be touching your wings now, just so you know. I love the way they feel, can't get enough of their softness." Saix laughed a bit, but nodded. I had been infatuated with his wings since the first time I had the chance to touch them. They were like no other fabric ever created and no matter which way they were touched, their softness was always there. As I was touching them though, I jaw opened just a bit in surprised and Saix was quick to ask, "What now?"
"I found a white feather…" I informed before telling him "Get up, I wanna show you!" I felt really excited and Saix just seemed confused, but once he was facing the mirror, he lifted his wing and after moving a few, I revealed the lone pure white feather that he still had in tact.
"Wow… It looks so white against the black…" Saix mentioned and I nodded, informing "Doesn't it?" Makes you even more beautiful, Saix." We smiled before I wrapped my arms behind his neck and kissed him deeply. My demon was still very much angel, but I loved him so much that it didn't even matter.
