I opened the shutter on the opposite side of the other one and it was a big forest. I closed my eyes and ran into it. My hands were shaking. I was sweating and I was scared.

I could instantly hear the running footsteps behind me. I ran even faster and soobin ran more faster than me. I looked back and he wasn't giving up. My mistake i looked back...my hit a long wood lying on the ground and I fell over.

I yelled and cried out softly. But I did not had time, i couldn't run anymore. I coughed and coughed. I looked at soobin and crawled back on the ground with wet leafs.

Soobin chuckled "already tired my love?"
"W..what do you want huh?"

"You..."

I frozed. "M..me?"

"Look yeonjun, I had only ONE wish before I die...to meet my soulmate. The one I was supposed to love and cherish for the rest of my love...you. but seems like God was waiting for the right time and I was waiting for the right time to die..."

"So my last chance was to call upon the devil. My favourite part. I first did at the school, some students saw me but that was wayy before graduation. And that wasn't even the same wish. But that did not worked but that felt good."

I gulped and continued to Crawl back.

"Now lately i called him again, and this time it worked. I told him everything. He agreed with one condition. That he will have to drawn my energy to him and make him extra powerful to rule his world. And i said yes. That's the ritual my love, you saw there"

"But that doesn't mean I am dead. I am still alive, full healthy and good looking"

My back hit a big tree. Fuck it. I sobbed and gulped in fear as he crouched down infront of me and gently brushed away some hair that were sticking to my face from the sweat.

"And you my love, have two choices. One, Come with me to wherever it is, probably hell. Two, agree to obey me and live a beautiful human life together."

"O...obey you?"

"See baby, when he drawn my energy I was a spirit, more like a living spirit. I came to you, he lead me to you. I obeyed and give in to his commands. And to live a human life, you would have to do the same. Obey and give in..."

Soobin leaned closer to my face, his one hand above my head leaning in completely and whispered in a huskier tone-

"Just like I did..."

He gently kissed my nose and leaned back. His eyes were so pretty yet dangerous lingered in it.
"Which one would you choose baby?"

I gulped. I had no words. I wanted to run away from the situation. I stayed silent and tried to breath normally.

"Cat got your tongue? Speak, now." He ordered. His eyes now a bit more darker. His voice held more authority.

"I...s..soobin...i..i just wanna go bac-"
"Choose."

He ordered once again making me almost shit my pants.

"I...o.. obeying you doesn't...d.. doesn't break my f...freedom right?"

...

Soobin laughed out almost maniacly and gently caressed my cheeks. I, with full fear started sobbing.

"Sweetheart, you will have your freedom, just don't ever defiant me, or disobey me. That's it"

"...y...you will be a human again?"
"Yes...with your one decision, my whole family will be happy again...think baby boy"

I gulped once again if I had any more saliva in my mouth. My throat was dry as fuck. I nodded as a agreement.

"F...fine...i ...I will obey you and you better be a human again"

Just as I said that something went in my eyes and i rubbed it. When i opened those eyes soobin was gone...like LONG gone. I get up and started walking towards the shutter.

"S...soobin?" I called out softly.
"SOOBIN!!" I called out loudly.

I walked and walked and felt tired. I felt dizzy. I sat down on the ground once again against a tree. I closed my eyes feeling extremely sick. I don't know if i lost my consciousness or fell asleep...i no longer was on reality.

Yeonjun woke up feeling light headed. His body was stiff but aching. He sat up on his own bed. He realised he is at home. He was hella confused. His eyes were blurry slightly.

"Slept well, baby?" A soft voice echoed the room. Yeonjun flinch and looked at the direction of the voice's owner.

Soobin was standing at the doorway leaning against the door frame.

"Y...yess....how did i get here, soobin?"
"I took you here. And I have to admit this house does not look beautiful anymore since i am not haunting it"

He stated and sat down beside yeonjun. He gently patted his head.

"My poor boy must be tired."
"...why did you do all of this....for me?"

Yeonjun asked expecting him to say 'mind your own business'.

"Look yeonjun, my love...if there is anything stronger than God and devil in this world ...it's love. It's one of the most powerful element amoung the universe. And to get and give this...it's a challenge. And since I was someone who never received it...i wanted to express it to someone who will ACTUALLY give it to me"

"And you..." Soobin gently removed the hair falling to his eyes "you my love... deserves more than anything in this world. And I am here to give you that."

"I'll make sure to spoil you, love you..I was drawn to you everytime I felt unloved. You are the source of my love, you are the reason I am alive, you are the purpose of my life...and all because Our eyes met"

Yeonjun tilted his head amd pout in awe. Even though soobin called the demon to do this work, he was succeed. Yeonjun gently scooted closer to soobin knowing in his entire life anyone hurts him soobin never will.

Soobin held yeonjun close to his chest and gently kissed the top of his head.

"And my baby, there is no one, nothing in this world that will apart us or bother us...if they did...I know who to call"

Yeonjun looked up at him. "No.! Don't. You can't just deal with devil always."

"...yeonjun" soobin called out in almost a low tone sending shivers down his spine.
"No.Defiance, No! Disobedience. I thought I made that clear.."

Yeonjun gulped and nodded.

"And...when 'You are the devil what's the problem dealing with yourself?' "

"Huh?" Yeonjun asked, confused.
"Nothing sweetheart... Coffee? Americano?"
"Oh my god! Yes!"

Yeonjun said, excited. Soobin laughed at how adorable he was...

Knowing he will never know, he chose to be the devil, not to be With the devil.
