Charlie watched closely as Azazel drank from the water, feeling quite satisfied with herself. He seemed fine now, which was good; yes, he'd tried to kill her, but to put it in a completely logical sense, having a living demon around would be much easier to handle than a dead one. She almost smiled. But she didn't. Azazel sat up then, and she almost missed the feeling of him lying there in her lap. She wasn't sure what to say to him then. How are you feeling? Are you still going to kill me? Those types of things seemed appropraite .but Charlie could voice neither.

Thankfully, the doorbell rang. "Who is that?" Charlie muttered to herself, standing up. She almost went to straight for the door when she realized her more unusual company. Her eyes widened. "Uh, just a sec!" She called to the door, hurriedly taking Azazel's wrist. "You have to hide!" She hissed at him, draggin him down the hallway. "Just saty in here until they leave!" Charlie opened to the door to the bathroom, which was just off the living room, the first door in the hall. She hurried him inside and, once the door was closed, hurried to her front door.

"Hey, girl!" Charlie's friend, Meg, greeted her at the door with a hug, and quickly filed inside, followed by Amy, and lastly, Conner. Each of them were in one or more of her classes. Meg was shorter, barely five feet, but cute as a button with wavy brown hair and fair skin. Amy had raven locks she'd cut short the begining of the year, with a nice tan coming in from her morning jogs. Her older brother, Conner, had the same hair, but fairer skin. He stood taller than any of them, and quite close to Charlie. Not that she was uncomfortable. He was deinately cute, that was for sure! Charlie had never had much of an interest in him, but Meg had always insisted the feeling wasn't mutual for Conner. "We just wanted to stop by, see if you wanted to grab some food, maybe take in a movie or something?"

Conner bumped her shoulder, giving her a wide grin. "Yeah, come on! Wouldn't be as fun without you there." He looked at her expectantly, leaning into her as he did so. It wasn't quite an uncomfortable feeling, but more of guilty one. She was flattered he wanted her company, she just didn't really care one way or the other for his.

"Well?" Amy egged on.

Eyes darting back toward the bathroom door, Charlie gave a somewhat nervous smile. "Oh, you know I'd love to-"

"Great!" Conner placed a hand on her back and pushed her toward the door. "Let's get going then!"

"but I can't. I've got some stuff I need to work on, you know. Can't fall behind." She pulled away from Conner, heading back for the safety of her living room.

Amy and Meg exchanged looks, and were quite for a moment. Meg was the first to shrug it off. "Alright, suit yourself. Seeya, then." She and Amy smiled and waved as they left. Conner was a tad more reluctant to go, but did, eventually.

Closing the door with a click, Charlie gave a loud sigh of relief. They were finally gone! Turning from the front door, she walked back to the bathroom door. Giving it a light wrap, she called out to her guest. "Azazel?" She said tentatively. "You can come out now, if you like." And then, under her breath and to herself, "if you weren't just a really complex hallucinatioin or dream or something..."

"You're not the only one wishing this was a dream, lady."

Well, wasn't he a bundle of sunshine? Charlie moved to the side as he brushed passed her coldly, following him back to the living room. Hey, she may've locked him in the bathroom for a couple minutes, but that was no reason to be so rude to her! What was she gonna do? Leave in the living room with her friends there and say 'oh yeah, and guys, this is the demon I summoned a couple minutes ago; he's stuck here now'? Uh, no.

Watching him poke around, she picked up the stupid book that got her into this stupid mess. "You know, it wouldn't kill you to be a little nicer." She gave him an annoyed look, setting the tome on the bar countertop. "No need to walk around with a stick up your a**." Crossing her arms over her chest, she watched him cautiously, wondering what he was doing. God, this was such a mess. Why had she done this? She'd gotten along so well, up until now. Her mother's crazy (or not so crazy, given the demon standing in front of her) stories came back to mind. Specifically, about the witch who fell in love with a demon; a cursed romance, one that could never work, especially since the witch was already to be wed. But the demon left her a parting gift, the gift of protection and loyalty from his future generatioins. At the time, when she was eight, Charlie had thought it the most beautiful story of all. But then, as she got older, it was just another of her mother's fairytales. And now, looking over at Azazel, she wasn't sure what to think.

Sighing, she looked at th clock; it was almost time for supper. The clouds outside were starting it get darker, too. It looked like rain. "Look," she said, letting her hair down and running a hand through it, "it's almost time to eat. I'm going to make myself some supper. If you want anything, let me know. We can start figuring out how to get you back to wherever you came from one I'm no longer running on empty."

[[OOC: [/huggles] No worries, deary~ You take however long you need. ^_^ Reku will be here! ]]

"Do as you wish." Azazel replied, sticking his now back in that cursed book. Charlie stuck her tongue out at him in a most immature manner. Fine! She would! Starting with food. As he read, she rummaged around her kitchen, searching for something suitable to eat that day. It was raining now, so something warm and cozy would be best. She opened cubboards and dug through the fridge, but unfortunately, it seemed her selection was sparse. She had a couple apples, a head of lettuce, maybe a glass of milk left in the carton. There was some bread and peanut butter in the in the cabinets, along with some lemonade, hot chocolate, and tea packets-

Jackpot!

Giving herself a small congradulatory grin, she pulled out the package of chicken flavored ramen noodles from the corner of her cabinet shelves. When all else failed, ramen noodles were always there. She was glad Azazel hadn't wanted anything now; not only did she barely have anything to offer, but now she didn't have to share the deliciousness. Grabbing a pot, she began to boil the water, her eyes beginning to wander. "This is ridiculous." Snapping her attention back to the demon, she watched him curiously as he stalked off to the window. No luck, she assumed.

Becoming uninterested at the moment, her eyes began to wander again. But, giving their current location, they happened to wander over him. He really didn't look like a demon. Well, appart from the horns and the flames and the tail- woah! Where had that come from!? Her shock wore off quickly, though, since, well, once you invite a demon to stay for supper, nothing much really gets to you anymore. But still, that hadn't been there when she'd pushed him into the bathroom. It was... kind cute. He looked like a cat, with it swishing around. Well, maybe a cat-goat-bonfire cross. But still. She smiled a bit, thinking about it, and even giggled a little. She hadn't meant to, though! It just sort of... bubbled out. A bit embarrassed, she turned around quickly, hoping Azazel hadn't noticed, and focused once again on her food.

Finishing up the noodles, she poured them into a bowl and, like every proper college student, began to eat them with chopsticks. Charlie generally at in the living room, so absentmindedly, that's where she wandered, sitting down near where Azazel was. "So I'm guessing you didn't find anything." She stated flatly, taking a bite of the noodly goodness. "Not that I'm saying this because I like you or anything, but you should probably eat something. Or do demons not eat?" Hey, he may've been a bit of an a**, but Charlie couldn't just let him starve. It wasn't like her. Besides, if they were going to battle each other all the time, it wouldn't be fair if he didn't keep his strength up.

[[OOC: So Reku was thinking....
Since it's raining now, Reku thought we could have a blackout; power, water, heat- all gone! But that's for tomorrow! We can play out the rest of the day, up until sleeping arrangements come up, then time skip to the next day. It'll still be raining, but storming a lot more! The power goes out and Char-char goes out to buy supplies, but is followed home! Someone tries to break in, but Azy comes to the rescue!!!
...
Or, yeah, something like that. >.< What does Hunter-chi think? ]]

"I'm not hungry. I just ate."

Charlie shrugged. Fine then. He could refuse her food. She just hoped he didn't expect her to be sympathetic, or come running to make him a sandwhich later when he suddenly decided that he was hungry. Because he would. She was sure! Every man did. "It said I'm not allowed to use my magic anymore." He told her suddenly. Charlie looked up from her ramen, taking aback. He couldn't use his magic? God, just what had she done to him? "Not unlless you give me permission to. Don't ask me how that works. Even I've never seen something this complicated before." He needed her permission? Well wasn't that interesting... More and more flashes of that stupid story of her mother's came back to her."And you.... You aren't a full witch... you're descended from one aren't you?"

Charlie's eyes narrowed at that. "How do you know that?" She demanded, setting her ramen down on the table. This was starting to get weird... Well, weirder. "I'm 1/16, on my mother's side. According to my mother, my great-great-grandmother was a full-blooded witch." Charlie sighed, rubbing the temple of her forehead. This was becoming much more complicated that she thought it'd be. "I didn't even believe her about all this magic stuff until today. Damn..."

Groaning, she leaned back into her sofa, sinking into the soft apolstery. This was just too much. Too much! She wished she'd never picked up that stupid book. Stupid book. Stupid magic. Stupid demon. Well, maybe not stupid demon. Mean, cynical 'I'm gonna kill you because I have a stick up my a**' demon. It was all exhausting. And confusing. It wasn't like she could just Google 'what to do when you suddenly find the demon you summoned can't leave'. Of course, she could do that....

No. No no no no no. Charlie was not about to call her mother of all people. She'd never hear the end of it! It wasn't even that her mother would be mad, it was just that after years of rejecting her magical stories, having her daughter call her up to say that she'd summoned a demon and now he was stuck, would probably send her into a tizzy. She'd be 'so proud' and rush right over. She'd never get rid of that woman.

"I'm not cut out for this." She muttered to herself, trying to get a grip on the situation at hand. "Sit down, would you?" She asked, not knowing that her words carried any sort of bond with them. "You're making me nervous, standing like that."

"My family had a story. My great-grandfather fell in love with a witch. Didn't work out, though; romantic drama bull and all that. He decided to leave her with some sort of promise or something. You wouldn't happen to know about anything like that now would you?"

Charlie felt her blood run cold. Her mother's story came rushing back to her in straggering detail. She didn't even hear Azazel complain about her ordering him around as he sat down. She'd completely forgotten about her stomach, carefully setting her food aside. "My mother used to tell me a story when I was little." She said, her voice a tad shaky. "About my great-great-grandmother, summoning a demon. She fell in love with him, but I think she had someone else already or somethng like that... Maybe it was just some taboo... I forget," Charlie said, shaking her head. "But apparently, he left my grandmother with a gift; the loyalty and protection of his descendents for the rest of time." She looked over at Azazel, her bright blue eyes wide and shocked. He was the descendent of that demon. It made complete sense. It explained why he could kill her, why he did what she said.

Then came the amusement. He had to do whatever she said. He didn't have a choice. He was magically compelled to obey her commands; oh the fun she could have with that. Hell, if she told him to dance around like an idiot, he'd have to give her a show! At least, she thought he did. A little less shocked and tired, Charlie might've looked further into it; it was the Genie Complex. Even when someone wished for something from a powerful genie, they always had a way of twisting their words. It was very likely Azazel was privy to such loopholes, too. Still, Charlie wasn't all that concerned with that now. Currently, she just wanted to see if her new found power actually worked.

"So if you're suppose to obey my commands...." Charlie said, letting the sentence hang in the air ominiously for a moment to let it sink in for Azazel what she was getting at, "if I were to tell you to do something, you'd have to do it, no?" Charlie smirked like a cat having cornered it's mouse. Before she could be stopped, her first command was out of her mouth. "Pat your head and rub your stomach!" It was stupid and immature, but Charlie just had to see if it would work. "And stay seat until I tell you otherwise!" Just for safety percautions; he may not be able to harm her outright, but Charlie wasn't going to any chances.

Still, she laughed out loud as the magic worked it's, well, magic. Perhaps their situation wasn't so horrible after all.
