The Devil's Significant Other (Completed)

9.17th Birthday

Stacey POV 

Days and months went by.Life went perfect.I was with Alan and he was with me.Even though he wouldn’t talk to me that much but maybe his actions are the on doing the talking.He was a very good man,a gentleman.

It was almost 12 am.I decided to stay up late because tomorrow was weekend.I was brushing my hair while reading a book named “Ugly Love” by Collen Hoover,it was a romantic novel and sad.I was startled by the sound of a knock.

“Come on in” I said smilingly

“Stacey...” Alan said in the lowest and deepest tone possible.I loved the way he recited my name.

“Hi” I said,as usual

“You aren’t asleep yet? It’s late”

“I am sorry,it’s just that this book is so good,you should read it.” I said as I lifted the book towards him.

He gave me a tired and pissed off look upon seeing the name of the book.He didn’t take it but he said.

“Come downstairs” 

I followed him and it was all dark downstairs.All the lights were off and the place was ice cold.I was a bit frightened.

“Come...” He said and his voice faded away in the dark.What is happening?

I stood still and all of a sudden Alan grabbed me,he covered my eyes with his hand.I was so frightened.He was so strong,it was impossible to escape from his embrace,so I didn’t even try to escape.He was hugging me from the back.

Suddenly,I heard the sounds of being the lights switched on.Slowly slowly he removed his hand from my eyes.

“Happy Birthday Stacey” He said lowly,hugging me from the back.His breathe ran through my neck and I was still.My heart was beating so fast.

I saw all the lights turn on.The whole place was decorated with white and yellow flowers.There was a table and a huge white cake was kept on the table.The white cake was decorated with blue and yellow flowers.There was a crown beside the cake.Everything was so beautiful.

“I—I —“ I couldn’t speak.Tears ran across my cheek.I was crying,I have never had this kind of experience in my life.No body has ever made me feel so special.

“Thank you” That’s the only thing I could say.

Alan came and hugged me.He wiped the tears from my face.

“Don’t cry” He said as he smiled at me.Him smiling was not a very usual thing.Maybe the most rare thing in the universe.

He held me and we walked towards the table.In the cake,it was written “ Happy 17th Birthday Stacey”.

A maid ran in front of us with a camera.Alan,who was wearing a white shirt whose first two buttons were undone.We looked at the camera and it was the most beautiful picture.He held my hand and we cut the cake.He took a piece to feed me.

All those moments were kept in that camera.

I don’t know what I feel towards this man but I know that I will put my life in the line for him.I will do anything to be with him.He was the most precious thing I’ve had.He did so much for me.

“You are a good man” I said to him as I put my forehead  on his.

“Not everybody thinks so” He answered casually 

“You don’t need to care about others’ opinion as long as you know what you are”

“Don’t ever leave me Stacey” He said and my heart skipped a beat.I was thinking the same.

“I won’t” I hugged him
