Chapitre 75: The Discovery Of Pizza

After finding a good pizza joint that was still open, we walk in and grab a booth. After ordering a large pizza and two soda's, I finally look over to Kian to see him watching the others. "Humans," I say with a smirk while taking a sip of my soda.

He looks back at me with a frown before saying "Humans... do they have any magic at all?" I shake my head and say "Normally, no. Some may have some fae blood but it's usually a little too watered down to really make a difference."

He nods his head but quickly asks "What are they always looking at?" I turn to see what's he's talking about and see that it's cell phones. I feel myself smiling as I reach into my back pocket and pull out my phone.

I flip it around so that it's facing him and smile when it lights up. His dark eyebrow arches up as he reaches out and takes it. "What is it?" He asks looking it over. I take another sip of my soda as I say "It's a cell phone. You can make calls to anyone, anywhere. You also have access to an unlimited amount of information. You can search why your pet dog scoots his butt on the carpet or what a black hole in outer space is. You can also use it for entertainment purposes like playing games, reading, or watching videos. "

He's quiet for a while before saying "Interesting..." I reach out and grab the phone while saying "It can also do this." I snap a picture of him and flip it around with a smirk. This time both of his eyebrows shoot up as he looks at the picture.

I tuck my phone away and ask "Do you have a place to stay while here?" He looks down at the soda in the cup with a frown as he says "I will work out a few things and get a place. What is this?" When he looks back up to me, he has a look of confusion and disgust.

I chuckle a little as I open a straw and place it in the cup saying "It's soda. It's a drink and it tastes really good." He looks at me in suspicion before moving the straw to the side and taking a sip. I frown at him as he pulls back with a look of confusion.

"Why is it... bubbling?" He asks touching his lips with a deep frown. I chuckle again as I reach over and push the straw back to him saying "It's supposed to. You're also supposed to suck it through this straw."

I see the "Oh" moment as he clears his throat and tries again. This time he sips on the straw and when I see that exact moment the soda hits his mouth, I can't help but laugh out loud. He tries to cover it up but when he sees how hard I'm laughing, he can't help but chuckle with me.

After a few moments, I wipe my tears and ask "So? Do you like it?" He snorts at me and says "Hell no! It's horrible." I start laughing again as they bring over our pizza. I order him a water and start making our plates as I ask "Did you mean what you said? About helping me find the ones responsible for my mother's... death."

His eyes lock onto mine as he says "Every word of it. Wherever you want to go, I'll follow." I hand him a plate with a piece of pizza on it as I ask "But... don't you have something you'd rather be doing with your time? This is your first time back... there's a lot of new things to discover."

He takes the plate but never takes his eyes off me as he says "When I came through the summons I had no idea who had called or where I would go. I just know it was my way out so I took it. When I came through, I was planning on finding you but to my surprise... you were there."

"Once I get a place set up, I need to look for a few demons here on earth and try to get a few names. Maybe I can find out who's behind hiring the demons and maybe even find out how many are already here looking for you. I've only been here for a single day but I can feel the demonic presence in this area growing and I don't like it."

I look at him in surprise and ask "Growing? Like... there are more showing up or are they becoming stronger?" He gives me a grave look as he says "Both" Shit... I look down at my pizza and decide to just eat. I missed junk food while I was away and currently in desperate need of a fix.

I take a bit of the cheesy goodness and watch as Kian struggles to do the same. He looks at it like it'll jump at him and bite him... Once he does take a bite, his eyes light up and the rest becomes history. He never once went back for the soda but he nearly ate the entire pizza!

Once we're back to my house, I walk up to the front door and smile when I hear the house unlock it. I turn to Kian and say "You can always stay here if you need to." He gives me a smirk before saying "I need to do a few things so I can't stay but if you ever need me..."

He lifts his hand and points to the mark on his palm. I reach out and punch his hand as I say "No more tricks." He grabs my fist and says "You didn't know me and I didn't want to lose you all over again. It may have been just a night for you but for me... it was like an eternity I couldn't stop. It took everything in me to hold back and I still am."

I look up into his eyes and see that they're filled with that same pain and haunted look again. I can't even imagine the things he went through down there... He quickly hides the look and says "I'll be back." When he releases my hand, he instantly disappears.

I look back down at my hand before reaching for the door. When I walk into the house, I see Binx sitting on the couch, watching Sabrina, the teenage witch. I look back at him in question but he just replies with "Don't judge me"

I smirk and head for the shower but as I strip down, something in the mirror catches my eye. When I turn around and look at my shoulder, the same one that started with the demon mark, a solid black crescent moon was there.

The hell? I reach back and touch it, watching in wonder when my touch makes it start glowing a white color! My eyes nearly pop out when I see that it looks like a real mini-moon!! "That's new..." I murmur under my breath as the crescent moon slowly fades back to black.
