Ch. 7
"Maybe instead of constantly running we should settle down?"I think this over."What about hunting Nat?" We've been hunting for a month since we met. We've almost been killed by at least three archangels.
"Aurora, I'm worried you'll get hurt!" I push the gauze over my cut a little harder.
"What would our cover story be?" I turn away.
"Star crossed couple looking for their first house in hopes of being a future Mr. and Mrs. Belle." I frown.
"Money?" He raises an eyebrow. Right, the same we've always been doing.
And that's what we do. We buy a small town house in the outskirts of Bel Air, Maryland. The house is three stories. The first is an open layout, dark hardwood throughout the kitchen, living room and half bathroom. The kitchen is huge, with black cabinets, white granite counter tops and stainless silver appliances. Silver back splash and white walls. The living room also has white walls, and a white mantle to the fire place. The couch, love seat and recliner is a light shade of grey, with a white fur rug under the oak side tables and coffee table. There is a small breakfast nook with a black round table as well. The hardwood floors run up to the stairs, but the upstairs is carpet. There is a huge master bathroom with black cabinets, a twin sink that is divided by a vanity with built in stool. The sinks are white granite, with white marble floors. There is a huge, two person jacuzzi and a huge glass shower. The bedroom has light blue walls and black wooden furniture. The walk in closet has two sides, one for Nat's clothes, and one with every piece of clothing I could ever want. In the middle of the closet is a large plush stool. If you move that there is a handle. If you pull it up it goes up to a small gap in the ceiling. A library. If you push the shelf by the desk it goes into a circular room, lined with iron, coated with salt. There is a devil's trap on the floor and basically every protective symbol known to man and super natural. In the closet is every weapon Nat and I own. It has three combination locks, seven letters each, completely random.
We carry a knife with us full time, and a hand gun in the night stand in out bedroom. Every room has a bag of salt in it as well. Under the fur carpet in the family room is a devil's trap. We had it burnt into the wood, extra insurance. Just because we quit hunting doesn't mean we aren't cautious.
The front door opens. I turn to see Nat walking in wearing his dashing suit, his brown hair slicked back. He smiles. He puts his brief case down and opens his arms. I rush forward and wrap my arms around him. We embrace for a moment before pulling away.
"So there is a new movie in, want to go see it?" I laugh and nod. We link hands and run up the stairs. He jumps in the shower while I pick clothes. I work the night shift on Tuesdays and Fridays. It's Wednesday so I'm off. Nat is an extremely successful lawyer, so we are pretty rich. And engaged.
I was upset two months ago about loosing a boy in the hospital, and while watching cartoons, he just fell off the couch and... asked. About three days ago we had... the first time. It was amazing. Have it with angels, they turn into GODS.
I go into the closet as Nat goes into the bathroom. I scan through my clothes and decide to wear a pink tank top over a white one with skinny blue jeans and black ankle shoes with thick soles. He walks in, completely naked. I roll my eyes. He pulls on a black tee shirt, blue jeans and a green button up. He spikes his hair up in the mirror to look tousled as usual. We kiss once more before he hurries down the stairs. I begin applying make up. I drop my eyeliner. With a groan I pick it up from the floor. Behind me is a man. And then, everything goes black.
