The officer decided not to answer the obvious question. He snuggled closer into the jacket with a faint sigh, looking down at the lake. I've been so stupid…

;o;

He makes it so hard not to steal him away again… the demon thought, staring at the sky. It was an inky indigo that was nearly a dark onyx color. He wished the stars were more visible, though it was hard with the light pollution.

The officer took a second glance at the demon with a faint sigh.
"What is your name? I don't want to go around calling you 'demon'."

(you might recognise the name eheeee)
Snapping out of his thoughts, the demon turned his head to look up at the officer. Man, was he out of it tonight…
Letting a small smirk play at his lips, the man finally introduced himself. "Axtin."

(Eheheheheheheheeheheeee)

"Axtin," The human repeated. The name sounded unfamiliar but nice on his tongue. "It's… er… nice to meet you."

(ITS THE ONLY DEMON BOI I HAVE BUT CANON VERSION IS KIND OF A MESS LMAO)
The comment was well appreciated, the taller of the two enjoying the way his name rolled off of the other's tongue.
"And what about you, 'Officer P?'" the demon asked, violet eyes shimmering with curiosity.

(Euguhtjddjdhsjssjsmmfjd)

The officer sniffled softly, rubbing at his nose with a sleeve on his own shirt.
"M'names Allen. Allen Pousher." Allen glanced at Axtin with a small grin.

Axtin hummed happily hearing the name. It suited the officer. Seeing Allen's tiny smile was quite rewarding as well. "Allen. Allllllennnnn," he repeated, having fun with the way the l's rolled off his tongue.

Allen chuckled softly and looked down at the lake. "Yeah. That's my name." He smiled a bit more, looking back up.
"I like your name, too."

"Ah, thank you," the demon replied softly. Needing something to do with his hands, he cracked his knuckles lightly before resting them against his chest again. "You know, you should smile more. It looks good on you," he added with a sincere grin.

Allen's gein faded slightly. "I wish I could smile more. But my life is all stressful ight now."

Taking the opportunity, the demon took Allen by the chin to make sure the officer looked him in the eyes. Those beautiful violet orbs…
"We'll have to see about changing that now, won't we?" he asked rhetorically, raising a brow

Allen's eyes widened a little and he shifted his hips under them. "I… how do you suggest we change it, Axtin?"

"For one, I did offer you space in my home if needed," the man started, referring to the fact that the officer's current home was not one of peace most of the time. "Two, I'm thinking a lot of the added stress comes from Ti, or am I wrong?" Axtin added, daring Allen to deny it.

Allen nodded a little, listening intently. "I-I don't know if I want to. But… I guess it'd be nice to have a friend. And… yeah, yeah you're right, unfortunately…"

Axtin chuckled lightly. "Don't worry, I'm not going to repeat my mistake again and take you by force," he reassured the officer. In his mind though, he started wondering how to help Allen out in his situation. He deserved to be happy.

Allen fiddled with his fingers, then nodded a little. "Okay. Well… I guess I can go back with you. But I have a job…" Which I barely like anymore.

The demon hadn't meant to push the officer into coming along as quick as he did. Axtin quickly added that Allen had the option to make his own choice, that the offer wasn't a false one. He had a choice.
"As for your job… If you want to go back, I could always take you?" the man offered. He decided not to add the fact that he was practically rich.

Allen didn't really like his job, though. It was dull work, and it was never the job he imagined it to be.
"I don't think I want to come back. I want to go anywhere but here."

"Anywhere?" Axtin asked. His question was serious though his expression said otherwise. One brow raised with a suggestive smirk painted on his lips. It was almost comedic how the demon switched from flirtatious to sensitive to absolutely enraged.

Allen glanced at the demon with slight concern. "Er… yeah, I said that, didn't I?" He said with a slight edge to his voice, sitting up a little to squint at the Demon better.

Axtin rolled his eyes lightly at himself, a tad upset that Allen didn't catch his meaning. He brushed it off though, looking kindly into the officer's eyes yet again. Damn, he wanted to stare at them forever. It wasn't a rarity to have blue eyes for humans, but they certainly were dazzling to him.

Allen gazed back, feeling somewhat confused by the violet he found in the demon'ss eyes.
"So, um… what now?" He asked, tilting his head a little.

"You tell me, the demon replied simply. He was feeling quite patient in waiting for whatever that was to happen.
