Daniel looked over at Syrus to say something but noticed that he was asleep. He stared at the male for a moment because he realized how...well not demonic he looked. Syrus was indeed very good looking, far better looking than anyone he's ever seen, even actors. He was so tempted to reach out and touch his smooth looking skin but that would be invading his personal space and might anger him.
He simply turned the tv off when the movie was over and took a nap as well.

  __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ Syrus woke not long after the television was shut off, his silvery eyes finding the sleeping frame of Daniel...and honestly he couldn't figure out how he could be comfortable in such a position.Moving silently to his feet he wandered over to the boy and gently pushed his blonde locks back off his face. Even by demons standard Daniel was a beauty...he was actually lucky that he hadn't summoned an angel! they were far more unpredictable...but then again he had been lucky he summoned Syrus. He didn't want anything in return...though he was growing a certain fondness for the boy that he himself did not even understand. It was certainly strange, and completely Alien to him.
Carefully he lifted to boy from the chair and moved with ease to the boys room, carefully clearing him a spot on the bed before placing him down amidst all of his stuffed animals. He then pulled a blanket up over him and let out a soft sigh, not really sure why he was going to such length to ensure the boys comfort, but he let that pass him by as he left the room and wandered outside, taking note that most of the party goers were gone so he laid out his tall frame on the front lawn, content to let the cool air hit his skin and bring his unusually warm temperature down a bit.

Daniel woke up a bit confused wondering how he got to his bed but he guessed Syrus brought him here. Stretching he yawned and got out of the bed and went to search for the demon but something told him he was outside. Perhaps it was the bond they had that allowed him to sense Syrus. Walking outside he spotted the male laying on the grass clearly enjoying the cool air. "I guess you like winter?" he asked while walked over to him and sitting down beside him though giving him as much space as possible.
Again he yawned and glanced over to see his neighbors (which were two brothers his age that liked throwing parties or had their friends hanging out, the ones form before) standing by their car trying to fix whatever was wrong with the engine.
When he made eye contact with them he quickly looked away and his shoulders rose slightly as if he were trying to hide his head much like a turtle would do when frightened.

__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ Silvery tendrils of hair brushed against his face as he lifted his head to look over at the blonde, his icy blue eyes inspecting him for a moment, taking in the healthier glow he let off. It was actually quite fascinating to watch him grow stronger without his realizing it. "Yes. The cold is relaxing as my body temperature generally runs higher than a humans, quite a bit higher. I'd feel like I'm constantly having a fever to most" A soft breath, almost like a sigh escaped his lips as his gaze followed Daniels, finding the source of the boys discomfort, a slight furrowing of his brows the only sign that he was discontent. 'They need to be taught a lesson it would seem...' he pondered silently, his eyes narrowing ever so slightly, though the neighbors didn't miss that slight hint of hostility and sent him uneasy glances over their shoulders.
"Daniel, those boys.....do they give you grief often?" He voiced, making it sound like a harmless and innocent question to simply sate curiosity. Honestly, he wasn't sure how he could scare off these pests...but he was positive just his presence was setting off their little danger radars. Most humans would be a bit uneasy in his presence, it made sense since he was a natural predator and humans...no more than prey to most. Stretching out in the grass he let his gaze wander to the sky, before his icy eyes closed as the cool air prickled his overly warm skin.

Daniel looked down at Syrus and tilted his head to the side and was slightly curious to know exactly how Syrus felt. He didn't look like he was hot to the touch fever wise. Nonetheless he still kept the whole personal space in mind so he wouldn't actually reach out and touch him. That'd be pretty...awkward. He hugged his knees and rocked back and forth while thinking of several things that probably had nothing to do with the current situation. When Syrus brought up the guys in front of them he couldn't help but look over but doing so only made his neighbors catch him staring at them and that made him look away slightly afraid since there was a big chance that they would try and beat him up at some point.
"Uh...yeah...but only when they're home and I leave the house which is rare...so not to often." Daniel replied with a shrug as he turned his body slightly so that his back was facing the boys from across the street.

__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ Light eyes closed as the boy spoke, so they had hurt him. It was obvious by the way the boy made light of the situation, he was a victim and he was shutting things away. Of course even Syrus knew this would hurt more than if he spoke of it....but then again speaking of it was painful too. Humans were so fragile.... so easily manipulated, broken, shaken.... They were just so....human. Taking in a deep breath he pushed himself up, icy eyes fluttering open as he sent a glare across the street to the two males, who seemed to actually notice the threat in his gaze and went inside.
'mission accomplished' he mused silently, turning his gaze to the blonde at his side again. He couldn't help but wonder what secrets were hiding in the beautiful males mind, what could trigger him to not fear death, to want to die. He reached out to tilt the boys chin up, apparently not really one for personal space after all. His eyes then proceeded to search the boys face, looking for those hidden emotions, like he were some kind of fascinating treasure. Without a word he dropped his hand and slipped off his coat, all the while getting to his feet. He then dropped it over the boys shoulders, knowing his own heat would instantly warm the boy.
"You may be feeling better, but your still susceptible to the common cold" he stated, a slight tug of his lips showing his mild amusement. He then shoved his hands into his pockets and rolled his shoulders back, working out any tension in his shoulder blades. "Shall we go back inside?" He added, once again holding out a hand to help him up. If he didn't accept it he understood, it was rather hard to trust a demon after all.

Daniel couldn't help but feel his cheeks warm up when Syrus rose his head slightly up so that they were looking eye to eye and he couldn't help but wonder what it was Syrus was doing or trying to find since it looked like he was searching for something. When his hand moved away he looked down to try and re-group his thoughts.
Feeling something fall on his shoulders he looked up to see that Syrus had removed his coat to put it over his shoulders. He didn't realize it was cold out. His body had been shivering slightly but he just didn't pay any attention to it.
"Uh....thanks..." Daniel replied as he slowly reached out and grabbed the other males hand. On his feet he dig his toes into the cold soil then headed back inside. Walking into the kitchen he immediately started making some hot coco since he knew it was something Syrus would like since he liked sweet things.

__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ Syrus let out a soft humm of approval when the male took his hand, content to find that there was at least a little bit of trust between the two of them. He watched Daniel go , before turning his gaze back to the house of those boys, catching one of them watching through the window and his eyes narrowed. The man quickly moved away from the window when he knew he had been seen and Syrus shook his head. they were infatuated by what they couldn't have and thus they hurt him instead....typical human activity.
Turning he went back inside, instantly catching a whiff of hot coco which actually brought a content smile to his lips. Apparently Daniel was taking into account that Syrus liked sweet things.He moved to stretch his arms out above his head, bending his back like a cat, before he moved to walk into the kitchen, watching Daniel as he made coco for the two of them. He leaned in the door frame, feeling a strange... amount of...contentment. It was something he was unused to, seeing as he came from a world crawling with nothing but demons. Human life was peaceful and easy, free of the never ending conflict between demons and angels. Here he had no reason to feel threatened...

Once the hot coco was done he poured some in a mug and set it down on the table for Syrus as he poured himself some. Grabbing a plate he put some of the cookies and other pastries he bought earlier. Sitting he grabbed the bag of mini marshmellows and put some in his own cup and even some in Syrus's. "It's uh hot....unless you can drive lava without it bothering you." He chuckled lightly though maybe it wasn't really funny. He had an odd sense of humor after all.
He wasn't a big talker so he wasn't sure what he should talk about. Of course he did remember something. "I uh have to go see my therapist at six today...so i'll be leaving the house around five. I'll be fine on my own, I go alone all the time so you can stay here."

__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ A chuckle rumbled form the males lips when the boy spoke of lava "No, I can't do that. I can still burn myself" He mused, taking a seat at the table with the blonde. He blew on the coco before taking a sip, taking his time enjoying the hot chocolaty beverage. "Though I'm sure it would be a strange sight....someone drinking lava" He added, pursing his lips ever so slightly as he pondered the idea. His gaze darted to the male when he spoke of leaving on his own...was that really a good idea? Well, he couldn't really stop the male. "Alright" he stated with a short nod, putting the cup on the table so he could lean over it a bit , looking the male in the eye.
"If anything happens. Anything that you need help with or if you somehow manage to get lost. Call my name. I'll hear you." He stated, his voice rather firm. "I mean it Daniel. I will hear, despite the fact that you may think it impossible. I can find you anywhere" He added, before he leaned back, picking his coco up as he did so. He then scrunched up his nose as he thought about the therapist "Therapist... must be useless. It's better to simply have someone to talk to, not someone who judges and tells you what to do about things" He muttered, sipping at the coco once more. He took note of the time and looked to the blonde. "You'll have to go soon. Take my coat it'll keep you warm. Looks good on you too" He stated, a content smile placing itself on his lips. The scent on it would also ward away other demons... It was his, if they didn't recognize the scent, they'd recognize the coat itself.

"Well she's nice....besides for majority of my life she's all I had to talk to so I like her," Daniel said as he stood up and walked over to grab enough money for the bus fare. "I'll be home around eight, and I promise to call you if anything happens." Although he said it in away that sounded like 'oh nothing bad will happen you worrywart'. Waving he left the house and made his way to the bus stop which he made it just in time. Getting on he sat and headed off toward the city and to the office of where his therapist worked. From his house to her office it was only ten minutes by bus. By car it was at least seven and walking was thirty minutes or forty depending on the person.
Daniel spent an hour and a half as he told her about how he brought a demon to his life. She simply took it as some form of metaphor he was talking about because it was so absurd for it to be real and so Daniel knew it would be okay to tell the woman the truth since she wouldn't actually believe it.
As he headed for the bus stop he put on his head phone and began listening to music. He stood by the post waiting however he noticed a couple of his neighbors friends. They never liked Daniel (or so he took it as some form of hate and dislike) and so he frowned and turned to try and walk home instead of having them spot him and harass him. Plus he assumed they didn't see him.
Quickly turning he started walking down the sidewalk heading home. He had thought he was home free but a block later he looked back out of paranoia and noticed they the four of them were following him after all. In a panic he tended to do stupid things and he didn't think straight. He had zero survival skills.
Turning into an alley he started to job, taking the short cut to get home faster but looking back he saw they were in a full sprint so by the time he started running faster they already caught up to him and stopped him.
"Hey Dandelion where you off to in such a hurry?" They began to tease him and it was as if they were a pack of wolves surrounding him, a poor deer caught in head light.
Now perhaps they would have left him alone if it wasn't for the following events. One of them came in way too close and had invaded far too much of his personal space to where he panicked and did the only thing he thought he could do to show that he was heavily uncomfortable. Daniel had shut his eyes but felt his own hand make contact with the males face. Opening them he only saw the sudden rage that slap (pretty weak slap) had brought out of him. The next thing he knew was that he was on the floor with a bloody nose and a busted lip. He didn't even realize his delicate face was just punched.
The others then proceeded to deliver their own punches and kicks as if he were some sort of punching bag. He did the only thing he could, which was curl up in a ball. He whimpered and pleaded for them to stop. When he tried calling out for Syrus he was either kicked on the stomach or slapped around more. He only hoped that screaming Syrus's name out within his own mind would be enough.

__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ Syrus laid on the couch once more, stretched out in a lazy manner, simply lounging at the moment. His mind remained on the blonde human however, he seemed to be the epitome of unlucky. But at the same time there was a certain strength that Syrus admired in the boys spirit. He couldn't help but muse about the fact that the male had likely told the therapist about him, and now she would think he was either crazy or just making up a metaphor for his life. A soft smile pulled at his lips, but it abruptly curled into a frown, his brows furrowing as a plea filled his mind. He was on his feat and moving in an instant, far too fast for the human eye to even catch. Soft blue eyes turned to liquid silver, the whites of his eyes pitch black. Fangs elongated where normal canines once were, and his nails turned sharp and clawed like an animals. His skin seemed almost white, and the killing intent around him was thick.
He came to a halt half way through the alleyway, his eyes narrowing dangerously at the sight before him. Before anyone had taken notice to him he was behind one of the males and flung him out of the way like he weighed nothing. "Is this, your definition of fun?" He growled, his voice sounding hollow, nothing like the warmth that he had been using towards Daniel. No, he sounded and looked feral, inhuman.... dangerous. "Is it?!" He growled, grabbing another as they tried to run. He pulled them to him with ease, meeting the girls eyes before he squeezed her arm so hard and a sickening snapping noise filled the air as the bone shattered under the pressure. She let out a shriek of pain as he tossed her into the wall like he had the other, not as hard as the male however. She sobbed and clutched her arm, staring at the male with horror while he moved on to the next. This one wound up with a deep gash in his right leg, which seemed to burn where the males clawed hands met the flesh, sealing the wound so it would not bleed out, but it would still hurt...and scar.
He turned to the last who was having a bit of a panic attack, and had also been the one Daniel had slapped. A feral growl rose from his throat, something nothing human could ever make. Before the boy could turn to move, Syrus had him in his grasp, holding him by the throat. "You're filth. Defiling someone so beautiful...delicate. What has he done to you hmm?" He hissed as he pushed the male into the wall. He dragged his nails from the males wrist and up, making a burning line all the way up his arm, neck, and up to his temple. It was something that would stay on him for life. The man screamed, whimpering and begging to be let go. "Speak of this, and you will not live in our next encounter." He growled in a low rumble, before he tossed this one to the side as well. His eyes flickered to the beaten bundle on the ground and his eyes seemed to soften ever so slightly.
He forced himself to become calm, willing his body to look human again as he stepped forwards to carefully pick Daniel up, cradling the boy in his arms. "You'll be alright Daniel" He crooned softly, moving the boy back to his home where he proceeded to clean the boy up, gently. He willed his own energies to heal the boy, take the pain away and knew it would...but not instantly. After cleaning up the boy, using a damp warm towel to wipe the blood away, he placed Daniel down on his bed of stuffed animals. A gentle hand smoothed the blondes hair as he inspected the blonde beauty, a flame of anger still dwelling in his mind. He knew he could not go and kill those humans, but oh how he wanted too.
All of them would have permanent injury...their ring leader having the worst. The scars would heal twisted and gnarled... they would always drag him down and that was exactly what he had wanted.he'd thrown the first one...and he would likely have brain damage from the force... the girls bone wouldn't heal properly either. It was shattered. And he had burned the bone as well in the other male, which would cripple him in a way. He was at least satisfied to know that now they themselves, would be rejects while Daniel grew stronger at his side. "It will all be alright now" He purred gently, sitting at the edge of the bed for a while longer before he stood. "I promise" He crooned, turning to leave the room.

When did the pain stop? At one point did the beating come to a halt? Daniel was far too dazed and lost in the physical pain that he was unable to tell. He doubt that if Daniel saw he probably would have been frightened by Syrus. Not that he would be scared of him on purpose. He had a habit of being very didn't notice Syrus appear and pull them away from him and there was no fearful of people...or demon in this case that could cause harm to others without any shred of remorse. He grew up to be a very cowardly young man and it was one reason why he refused to leave the comfort of his home because people seemed to enjoy watching him be tormented and causing him pain. The world was....is cruel after all.
He was ready to do the usual. Sleep so that he couldn't feel the pain but as he started to drift off into sleep, he could feel his body tense and every nerve around the bruises begin to fire up and he could only respond by cringing and whimpering. He was like an injured puppy, lost...afraid, already lost hope in humanity.
He opened his eyes slowly to see a hazy image of Syrus then allowed himself to sleep for now. Now on his bed he wasn't aware that most of the pain was gone as well as the bruises. However it only harmed his psyche more. Whenever he was jumped he would keep himself in his room for a week straight and not even his grandparents could coax him out.
He slept all night and around nine in the morning he finally began to stir. Rolling out of bed he groggily made his way into the bathroom to shower. He still had some bruises here and there, two dark spots on his right side and a fairly big one on his left inner thigh.

__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ The silvery haired demon had allowed Daniel to simply sleep after he brought him home, and from there he returned to hell to find that he still didn't have a clue as to how to break the binding. After a thorough period of relaxation on his part he returned to the human world to find that Daniel had awoken, which was obvious thanks to the sound of the water running. Sy flicked a tongue over his bottom lip in thought, clutching a small metal object that looked kind of like a lip chap container, but inside was a salve that would help with Daniels wounds.
After a moment of simply...standing, he moved into the kitchen to boil some water and make Daniel a nice cup of peppermint tea with a drizzle of honey, but not too much because he sweet things, wouldn't really be good for his recovery. He simply wandered to Daniels room and placed the tea on the ed side table, knowing the aroma would fill the room and Daniel would notice it. He then returned to the kitchen to make something to eat for the both of them. Before coming back he had gone to the grocery store, which had been quite the sight due to the people ogling the man who probably looked like some super model and most would think someone else would do his shopping for him.
He stuck to something simple, a homemade soup that would have a good amount of nutrients, taste good, and it would be Daniel safe. Leaving the pot to simmer, he wandered out to the couch and sat down, unable to really hide his restlessness. He could have crushed those humans...he wished he had, but he knew that Daniel..... Daniel would have been absolutely terrified of him if he learned that he killed those kids. So they were alive...probably in horrible pain and being kept in the hospital, but they still breathed the same air that Daniel did and it made him sick.
It was almost amusing to think that Daniel was human... He was more angelic, well, the type of angels that humans thought of. Not those vicious killers that littered heaven and served under their 'god'. No, he didn't deserve the harsh treatment that he received from others....it wasn't everyone, just those who feared the boy because they couldn't hide their want for him.

By the time Daniel was finished with his shower the smell of peppermint reached the bathroom. He began to wonder where the source was and so he walked out after he was fully dressed in some grey sweat pants and a black large sweat shirt. He only made himself look frail and tiny wearing such big and loose clothing. When he got to his room he spotted the cup by the table side and grabbed it. His grandmother always made peppermint tea and she always offered him some but he would always decline. Perhaps now was a good time to give it a try. Sitting in his pile of stuffed animals he took a sip and was surprised to see that it tasted pretty good. He finished the cup in no time despite burning his tongue a couple times.
Setting the cup down he laid down and yawned not knowing what to do since he didn't want to leave his room. Finally after a while he sat up and grabbed a tin box and opened it.Inside was a lot of sorted jewelry along with small trinkets of sorts that usually went on bracelets, necklaces, earrings etc. He grabbed the roll of stretchy string and began to construct a bracelet consisting of reds and blacks.
