chapter 3: look around
Toni smiled at me his lips pointing up as he walked around with me in the halls for a long time, sometimes passing large lights making the clear, bright, lime light shine onto him, his face and fetchers slowly become more visible to my eyes.
His long hair was a new kind of mess all together, it flowed past his shoulders and down to his thin and skinny waist band on his trousers, his eyes were a lovely lilac purple almost the same as a beautiful lavender flower that had just bloomed in the spring, they sparkled slightly from the dim lights above aware heads as thin, black framed glasses sat upon his noes making it look like a fresh glaze had been poured onto his eyes and rubbed clean of any dirt that could get in the way of there beauty.
His eyelashes were slightly longer then other boys and slightly more curved to, he was actually quiet attractive for his shape and size - but i couldn't quite put my finger on why he was so active in the first place, it was like some type of spell had taken me over causing me to fall for him slightly but not fully because I was still broken from chaise.
The cloths Toni was wearing was a louse, long sleaved, ladies, white blouse with a large black cotton cardigan.
On his legs were a pair of skin tight blue jeans going with his black, high healed, zip up boots.
"so your the knew human 'he' was talking about?" Toni purred as he twirled a small peace of his hair around in his soft and pristine hand as his nails looked like they could cut through steel, his other had laid down his side swingging back and forth as we walked together.
I nodded slowly looking at Toni with a slightly confused face.
'Who was this man? How did he know I was knew?' I wondered to myself as I examined his body and posture more looking up and down his body for anything bad or anything out of the normal.
This man was clearly here for a reason, but that was unknown to me at the moment and I figured it would be that way for a while as I was still knew to hell.
He could have been like me and made a deal, he could have been a bad person sent to hell or he could have been a born and breed demon, There could have been many other reasons and probbably was- something told me I was going to find out the hard way just like normal, I would have to find out for myself instead of them telling me like I always hopped they would.
Toni smiled more, his hand grabbing another peace of his long and thin hair, but this time both hands playing with it like a nervious child would do when he was trying to hide something from his parents or when he was lying to somebody.
He must have noticed what he was doing with his hair because soon after he started fiddling with his hair he looked down at me and stopped holding it still before playing with it once again.
"Im not nervious i just like my hair" he smiled happily.
He didn't seem like the other demons, he was confident and kind of sweet around me, he also didn't have a stutter like the other one I had met previously, he was more laid back and free caring then everyone else down here in hell that i had met so far, it was like he had no reason to be scared of anything as long as he was down here he was unstoppable and was as strong as a army made of a hundred men.
"Don't worry I'm not as bad as the others" he commented his attention always staying on me as we walked.
Everything in hell was strange and unexplainable it was almost like wonderland, as soon as you thought you under stud everything there was more to learn about the place you was in and a lot more to discover just around the next corner, not to mention none was what they seemed to be.
"And how can I believe you?" I asked curiously with a slight bit of attitude in my voice as I swallowed a small bit of bile in my throat, pushing it into my mouth before he noticed how uncomfortable i was.
Toni sighed laying his head back with a small smile then lifting it up when he pasted a male demon with a lovey dovey look in his eyes.
The man he was looking at had short and combed back blond hair with small bits of brown poking out here and there, as his eyes were a unnatural grass green.
The look him and Toni gave one another caused me to smirk widely at him, when he turned around and saw the smirk on my small lips he razed a brow at me and smiled a bit more.
"what are you looking at?" Toni asked seriously with a click of his tounge against the bottom of his mouth.
"nothing, its just you seem to have a good eye" i smirked refuring to the boy he was looking at before i had interrupted him from doing so.
We both let out a small chuckle at each other as Toni rolled his eyes at me slightly with a smirk laying on his lips like they belonged there all along and would never move from that spot on his lips.
His long hair started to roll all over his shoulders and around his neck as he played with it a little bit more.
I hadn't realised it before when i first looked at Toni, but his nails were actually rather long and pointed, they was painted with a lovely clear polish with a white tip and a small amount of glitter at the end.
His glasses were slowly sliding down his nose ever so slightly till he pulled them off his eyes squinting so you could only see a small bit of his eye.
"I could say the same about you but you ended up here" he said and smirked darkly at me with a small amount of sass from the shade he had thrown my way.
My eyes dropped down onto the floor beneath me as I let out a large sigh before playing with my sleaves neviously.
The memory of what happened with Cora and Chaise made me feel so discusted and broken, it made my skin feel filthy because i felt like his toy, it all just came flashing back into my head.
The memory was very vivid and hard to forget, they was the only people I ever knew other then my mom.
My dad had walked out on me and my mom when I was younger and no matter what she tried to do from then on she could never find someone she loved that could deal with the both of us for long.
"you know he isn't as bad as you think he is" Toni said as he pored a sympathetic look my way not knowing if it was for me or the devil.
Toni had to be crazy to think that the devil wasn't that bad.
Sure he acted slightly nicer then the men back home, but that was because he made a deal with me he's ment to act that way to me.
Standing up quickly to tonie i look at him and frown.
"Toni shut up your just a stupid demon from hell what do you know?" I hissed out in annoyance at him as I tried to held my small temper back from hitting him around the face.
I was sensitive yes but when I got to annoyed my temper would come out in the worst ways.
Toni stopped looking at me with a smile.
We was in a garden.
It was beautiful and full of colourful flowers but we was still surrounded by walls all around us, it felt like I was in a coral, like some kind of animal, but it was amazing. some vines crawled up the wall as thorns gripped onto the tough bits of the wall were the thorns could slip in and hold on tight.
The sky was a sunset red all the time like it was frozen in place as only a few clouds were hovering in the sky slowly fading away.
"go look in his room then if you don't believe me.....lucifer "
Toni pored my name out of his mouth like a waterfall coming to its end and hitting the ground with a loud and enormous gush deathening people around it with the echo of the world around it.
I was surprised by how he knew my name without me having to tell him what it even was.
My heart pounded slightly against my chest with a small bit of terror and adrenalin through me.
"If he knows this about me who else does?" I wondered to myself.
I was scared that people were going to know everything about me and that everything would be this way forever now.
"He really isn't though lucy. He helps many families here and he has a good side" he pointed out as he fiddled with his hair more tickling his own face with it then bringging his face close to mine.
He looked into my eyes and smiled sweetly at me.
He was now being nice - or acting nice to me like what he said didn't happen just a few seconds ago.
"He told me the people down here were worce then him. Why would that make him help any of you?" She asked back with a small smile trying to be smug and smart but clearly Toni had a answer for her to say back.
"Because there people small one. were not people" he said wickedly and moved back to were he stud tall, standing up with a smile as he serched over me again, his lips went together on the one side as he examined me but he smiled in satisfaction after a while.
"But i guess you just need to know us more" he hummed shrugging his sholdures off at her.
My patients of being with him had grown thinner, but i really had no idea were I was or were I could go, but i also couldn't just stand there and see him hovering over me so much.
I slowly moved and started walking away from Toni as i herd small mumbles come from under his breath.
These people were all diffrent, none was the same, i couldn't even find any twins down here yet.
Looking out a window in the hall i could see happy children running around parks, adults were nattering to one and another about there children and teenagers were makeing out under some plants that looked like a type of tree, it came back to always looking normal but when you talked to them face to face...
They wasn't.
Shakeing my head i look away from the window and walk around more. What was so special about this place that made them happy, were they good people who just came here on accident?
Once again i shook my head and looked around as I walked trying to find my way back. At some point I reached the old door that had showed up before but this time.
It wasnt so far away.
Walking closer to it i wanted to grab the nobe of the door but something or rather someone made me stop from opening the door that had lured me into this trap.
The feeling of a hand firmly grasped and placed on my sholdure with such strictness,
there was only one man i knew like that down here, that wouldn't want me going in this room.
The devil.
Turning my head slowly i look at him.
He was already giveing me a death glare as if sending a curse to my bones and makeing them stiffen like a metal pole in the rain.
Nothing was more scarey then haveing the devils hand on you as you waited for him to remove it.
But at the samw time nothing was more natural to you now but to see him show up when he was unwanted.
"What are you doing!?" He hissed looking at me with a razed brow and a frown upon his lips as they curl up into a scowl.
He wasn't happy that was clear as the top of his head wrinkled ever so slightly like the skin on a old man.
I could almost feel him looking into the deapths of my sole, unlocking the seals that kept it safe from his eyes.
The feeling of my arm braking would get stronger the longer he held onto my soldered with his powerful and super strength as he squeezed my peach skin with all his might driving the circulation of blood to build up in the one spot.
He waited for my answer but I couldn't find the words to say way I was so drawn to the room it was like I was being pulled towards it with a powerful and strong might. 'Why did he have to stop me this close though?' I wondered to myself at the pondering thought.
Ash, the devil sighed moving his hand gently down to my wrist and pulling me long like I was his dog on a leash. The way back still a lot faster then earlier on and so many of the doors had now gone missing; replaced with solid walls with no cracks and no fresh pain, it was like they was never there and my head had imagined it all up out of nowhere.
"What did I tell you?" He asked infuriated as I imagined smoke coming out of his ears like a ready built kettle about to pop and spit the water out at any time.
rolling my eyes I averted his gaze looking back at the direction we was walking away from, what did he expect me to do all day, be board and stay in my room.
what kind of prisoner does he think I am?
"to Stay in my room, and don't go anywhere" she sighed as she was finally thrown into her room.
The devil sighed pushing a hand through his hair and looked at the door, he was clearly deeply thinking about something.
Sighing I looked away from him and over to the borders of the wall wondering what was outside of the walls of the devils home and if there really was anything good that she could find in this hell.
"dinner is in a hour or two, Varsity will get you" he said walking out as he turned his back away quickly as his hand held onto his back neck sighing.
