I stared at Louis, his story made no sense at all, but then again, neither did the one I told about the fireflies. I nodded slowly and then turned on the washing machine. I decided that the thing behind his back was something he placed on his back himself to make the story better, like a costume. It was a large black feather wing that looked amazing and went with his story, I laughed at myself for thinking it was real. He slipped behind me while my back was to him and pressed himself against me so that I couldn't move. His voice softly hissed and whispered into my ear and made me shudder.
"Its a real story, thats why we are all here." His arms trembled and I thought he was going to kill me because I didn't beleive him. "I'm not like the other Lucifers before me, I'm not all that kind as you can tell by my interfering with so many things."
I looked at the wall in front of me and froze. Did he just say he was Lucifer, like, the new one? I didn't know what to say or do because I was afraid of him now.
"The reason the two girls and two wings instead of just one is because the seed of the father was already planted, all that they needed was the power to live." He breathed on my neck and I felt my knees weaken, I was stronger than this dammit! He pushed himself away from me, thank the gummy bears, and walked away. I looked back to see that his wing went into the wall, and when I say that, I mean it was like a freakin` ghost wing or something! He turned and looked at my face that was in a weird gaping fish fashion and smirk.
When the laundry was done and I went to my room Rachelle was smiling and wanted to tell me all about her day. But I was just too tired from hearing that story and having to deal with Louis. I was also afraid of him now. I decided I would ask Mark some questions while we worked in the library, but for now I needed some sleep.
The mind boggles at these, our fears and hopes. Our dreams and nightmares. Facing us so we must face them. The mind truly boggles at this.
