“You better. We’re nearly there now, then the seatbelt won’t run anymore,” Alex sighed a little, speeding up slightly.
Zero Gravity ((one-on-one//private))
(Does Alex have wings or horns or anything that show he's a demon?)
"Okay! I'm excited!" Beau smiled again and put his hands on his knees, continuing to watch out the window. In the two additional minutes it took to get to the coffee shop, he had pointed out five squirrels, three birds, a butterfly, and a motorcycle. "There's so many weird things on earth, huh?"
(Uh… he has horns but he can hide them so he looks more human)
Alex hummed his agreement and pulled into a car park, pulling into a free space, “Yes there is.” He unbuckled his seat belt, “Here we are.”
(Aight)
"Yeah! Let's go!" Beau opened his door and first tried to get out of the car with his seat belt still on. Dammit I'm stuck in the car. He tugged on it for a second, seemingly having forgotten how to undo it. "Uh… Alex I think I'm stuck."
(Alex: Do you are have stupid)
Alex looked over and shook his head with a smile. He reached over and undid Beau’s seatbelt, “There you are, now you can get out.”
"What? How'd you do that?" Beau was confused, and he examined the seat belt with a look of distrust. "Weird… um… w-well anyways, coffee!" He got out of the car and took Alex's hand.
Alex laughed, giving Beau’s hand a small squeeze, “You can’t learn how to drive if you don’t know how a seatbelt works, you know.”
"I-I'll figure it out… I'm just not used to this sort of thing." Beau walked into the coffee shop, which was pretty barren, and ordered his coffee. (I gtg shower but I'll try to be back soon)
(Okie dokie)
Alex ordered a tea for himself and payed for both drinks. He couldn’t shake the feeling they were being watched, but he just assumed it was paranoia then anything. His hand tightened a little on Beau’s hand.
(Oof I'm back)
"Hmm?" Beau looked up at Alex when his hand was squeezed, but didn't really say anything. He looked around to see what could be bothering Alex, and he spotted a demon staring him down from across the room. His heart quickened and he tried to get Alex's attention. The demon looked almost as though he wanted to hurt Beau.
“I see him,” Alex muttered, trying to keep a hold of himself and not make a scene, “I won’t let him hurt you, I promise.” He tucked Beau under his arm, for the angels own protection and so Alex knew he could protect him. Sadly he knew the other demon and lets just say they weren’t the best of friends.
Beau nodded and sat close next to Alex at one of the tables, quietly sipping his coffee and stealing nervous glances at the other demon. He never stopped staring at him, and at one point Beau noticed he had a knife and got even more anxious. "A-Alex…" He whispered. "He… h-he's armed.."
Alex nodded a little. His fingers twitched slightly, ready for an attack if one arose, “Bastard. Should have known he’d pull a stunt like this at some point,” He sipped his tea, “He’s not gonna get within ten feet of you and if he does I’ll kill him. Damn the consequences.”
"M-Maybe… maybe we should just go…" Beau's breathing was noticeably quicker by now, and he stayed very close to Alex at all times. Sure, he'd learned how to use a bow years ago, but he pretty much forgot, and he also never carried any weapons if he could help it. The demon pulled out the knife and glared at Beau, which made him flinch and cower even more under Alex's arm.
A low growl was ripped frown Alex, directed towards the other demon. His horns were noticeable now but he didn’t care. He was more focused on protecting Beau and not starting a fight in the shop, “Yeah. Let’s go.” He stood up, making sure Beau was right against him and protected before leading him out the shop.
Beau ran along with Alex, clinging tightly to his arm. They got into the car and Beau never let go of Alex's hand, watching the coffee shop window to see whether the other demon would follow them. He stared at them through the window, but luckily didn't follow them out. "W-Why was he looking at me like that?" Beau asked shakily. "Do you… do you know him?"
“Unfortunately,” Alex replied, glaring daggers at the other demon. He knew he had to calm himself, for Beau’s sake and he took a minute to do so, “His name is Jax. He’s always wanted to one up me, be better then me and always wanted what’s mine. You are the perfect opportunity for him to get back at me for all the shit I did to him.”
"O-Oh… I hope he stays in there…" Beau suddenly started holding his breath as he looked at Jax, and held it for a few seconds before hugging Alex tightly. "T-That was so scary… when I… w-when I saw he had a knife I-I got really scared and I… I thought he was gonna try to h-hurt me… or you…" He seemed to almost be holding back tears at this point, tightening his hold on Alex.
Alex gently pulled Beau into his lap. He shushed him softly, tracing light circles on his back to help clam him down, “I know, I know but he’s not going to hurt you. Not now not ever, I promise you. I don’t care if I get hurt protecting you as that’s my job now… as your boyfriend.”
"Mmm…" Beau hugged Alex's neck, hiding his face in the crook of one elbow. I wish that hadn't shaken me up so much… at least he doesn't seem to think I'm stupid. A lot of demons do kill angels, so I should be scared, right? "I-I like the sound of that… 'b-boyfriend'…"
Alex smiled softly, reacting his circles higher then back down again, “I’m glad you do. I am yours and you are mine, kitten.”
"Mhmm… dunno exactly how demons claim things, b-but I'd say you probably did this morning." Beau smiled a bit, red rising to his cheeks for the umpteenth time. He was glad that his face was hidden for now.
Alex chuckled, kissing the top of Beau’s head, “Oh yeah, I definitely claimed you this morning.” He gave his butt a small squeeze before moving his hand away and onto his back again.
Beau nodded, feeling his face grow even hotter. "As nice as this is, we should probably get back to the house… h-hopefully Jax doesn't know where you live. He looked over his shoulder nervously, but he didn't see Jax. Huh… weird. I don't know if I should be worried or no- "Oh my god! A-Alex!" Beau turned to see that Jax was at the passenger side's window looking pissed.
Alex growled, slipping out the car and placing Beau back on the drivers seat. He slammed the door shut, cursing, “The fuck do you want Jax?” He snarled, prepping for a fight.
"I want to make your life hell like you did mine." Jax grinned sadistically, twirling his knife. "N-No! Don't hurt him! Please!" Beau cried out from inside the car, unable to get out. "Hmph. I thought hurting your little boyfriend a bit might help. Not much of a fighter, is he?" Jax scoffed, baring his sharp teeth at Beau to scare him.
(He succeeded lmao)
“Leave him outta this,” Alex clenched his hands at his sides, “Do whatever you want to me but leave him alone. For the record, you deserved what I did to you. I get we’re demons but there’s no need to kill so many innocent humans for nothing.”
"Oh, alright." Jax sighed in almost a bored way. "I haven't really got much time, so I'll go easy on you this time." He grabbed the collar of Alex's shirt and pulled him close, all the while with Beau's muffled screams to stop from the car, and he slowly cut into Alex's cheek with his knife. After he finished doing this, he let Alex go and held the knife to his throat. "Consider yourself lucky, asshole." He said quietly before just walking away. "Alex! Oh my god! A-Alex!" Beau beat on the car window, shaking and crying by this point.
“Fuck off Jax.” Alex muttered to his retreating figure. He flipped him off too before he winced at the pain in his cheek. He opened the car door Beau was beating at, already moving to hug him and calm the other down, hopefully to stop him crying, too.
Beau sobbed into Alex's shoulder, hugging him as tight as he could. "O-Oh my god… oh my god…" He whispered shakily. "I-I can't believe h-he'd do something like that…" Beau was shaking, and he couldn't bring himself to look up to even check and make sure Jax had left.
