I come out of the ether into our bedroom. I am panting, my uniform soiled with dirt, sweat and blood. My chest exposed and a cut from the demons nails bleeds matting my chest hair. Smiling, my eyes wide with excitement I lick my lips.
Devon turns around and his eyes go wide, the blood I imagine. I look around and do not see Strider. The clock reads 11pm, he must be asleep - damn good thing! I storm over to Dev and place my hand on his lower back and take a handful of his hair and pull him to me and kiss him with all the love, passion and energy I've ever, ever felt!
The training turned into a real battle and I was ready! I knew the moves, I knew the demons by sight, I knew what potions and weapons to combine! I took a gash to the chest and possibly a few others, but we kicked ass - I kicked ass!We protected the amulet and killed off the few demons who had made it too close! My parents and the others praised me, but all I could think of was getting home to Devon! I feel on fire and he can put it out!
I pull back and look into his eyes, my breathing even faster now, "Fuck I love you babe!"
