The Shock of ice cold water had Levi scrambling out of the shower and panting he was freezing. He quickly turned the water off and grasped a towel as he did the lights flickered. He would have to replace the bulb. he leaned against the sink wiping the mirror off. His reflection wasn't his and he was startled but after a moment the light flickered and it was normal once more. Had he lost so much blood to be seeing things now? He shoved the thoughts away as he stepped into his room drying his hair and opening the closet. looking in at his attire.
Vesper had since gotten dressed in a light gown and had went to make lunch once it was ready she went to wake Levi but he wasn't on the couch so she began to look for him. when she went upstairs she noticed his door wide open was he alright she thought his door was never open. She stepped into the doorway with the lunch tray and had stopped dead in her tracks she found Levi standing in front of his closet towel around his waist with black and red hair dark marks under his eyes and no injuries he had water dripping from his head ad though he got out of a fresh shower but he looked possessed as the trey fell from her hands and he tilted his head to see her in the doorway and the crashing of the trey she was met with glowing red eyes assessing her. This wasn't Levi This was something else she trembled as it stepped over to her looking down at her she felt her heart throbbing. The Demons gaze softened as it leaned low to her ear and whispered, "Hello there you must be the lady of the house."
Vesper nearly fainted had the demon not grasped her waist.
"I'm not going to hurt you doll. I do however know that your actions may determine the life of your lover."
Vesper knew Levi was possessed but she couldn't help herself when the words fell out.
"He isn't my lover just a friend."
This caught the beast off guard.
"Oh has it been so long that women can now live with any man they choose now and at such a lovely age for such things." It mocked her laughing.
"Well then if your free for the taking I may just snatch you up myself I am quite ravished for a taste of contact."
"Please control yourself in my friends body. " Vesper defended this thing in Levi scared her but it seemed more like a pathetic needy man.
"Very well." he let go of Vesper and snapped his fingers dressed in a black and red suit.
"We will meet again but for now I grow tired I have not gotten my strength back healing this pathetic boy was costly you should do well to thank me girl."
Then the marks faded as did the glow in his eyes as he began to fall forward Vesper caught the heavy man in the nic of time dragging him to his bed. As she got him to lie down he stirred.
"Uhg... Vesper my head hurts so bad. " He absent mindedly leaned against her soft chest.
"My chest and gut feel like there on fire. " he groaned.
"Shh it's okay your just healing. " she tried to reassure him.
"Your in my room..." He groaned trying to sit up.
she pushed him back against the bed now.
"Yes but only because you fell down the stairs." she lied as she made him lay down.
"Rest, Levi it'll be over soon I swear. " She said this not believing it herself not until she had the demon removed from Levi one-Hundred percent.
when he was finally snoring again she went to clean up the mess she made in the hall and go fix a fresh lunch. she made hers and ate at the table after awhile she brought a lunch to Levi leaving it on his table and gently closing the door behind her.
Vesper sat at her desk doing research on people who had been possessed while on a live stream it wasn't uncommon for her to research supernaturally things in her stream so she wasn't really calling out what was going on.
"This might be something." She muttered as she watched a simple demon removal ritual. Flower chimed in over her microphone.
"Your awfully focused on the stream did something happen?" she was always so perceptive.
"Yes but I don't really feel like going over all the details."
"Well it's summer vacation from College classes and you haven't went to see your parents for two years straight take that cute boy and go see them you need a break your freaking out over a little accident."
" Your right." She sighed defeated.
"I'll tell Levi in the morning today's been a very long day. " She stretched and began to yawn ending her stream.
she went and got into her black pajamas feeling as if something was watching her she looked at the shadows on the wall cast by her lamp it was as if they could move on there own.
She shivered at the feeling as she looked at her bed then the door debating what to do. She stepped over to her door and as she opened it Levi was walking past in a long black trench coat walking for the door. she was in short black shorts and a button up sleep shirt as she quietly followed Levi to the door he stepped outside on the porch lighting a cigarette and sitting down in a rocking chair. Vesper gently opened the door but he didn't bother looking up at her.
"I'm sorry for troubling you so much Vesper." His sudden words startling her.
" No it's okay Levi actually I was thinking we could go on a little vacation up to Wyoming If you were open to it. "
The silence following after was eerie as Vesper sat down.
"We will pack up to go tomorrow. " He took a long draw from his cigarette. Watching as Vesper nodded making her way back to bed.
He looked out over the the empty street.
"I feel you there watching me you do scare me but I have my ways of removing you myself." He stated to the empty air as he crushed his cigarette standing up once more as it began to rain he shut the door as thunder struck and he went upstairs.
Levi woke to the noise downstairs pans clanking and dragging sounds this worried him that Vesper might actually be attempting to hide a body. He stood up his travel bags already packed as he kept spares under his bed he had already alerted his supervisor of the sudden vacation due to injury so he wouldn't be penalized for the free time. He carefully removed his suit case and smaller suitcase before walking downstairs to greet the possible body in his home.
