Love, Worlds & Demons

I stared into the mirror hung up on the bathroom wall frustrated. What was happening to me. I was feeling weird for the past few days. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. "Who could that be?" I muttered to myself as i picked up the white and blue towel that was hung on the door handle and dried up my hair. "Who is it" i yelled walking to the door now annoyed. Whoever was at the door knocked again. I unlocked the door and placed my hand on the handle reluctantly, deciding whether to open it or not. After a little while i opened it. It was Amy, "Wow, really?, it literally takes you a full day to get your door open" she spoke while folding her arms across her chest. Amy was my best friend since college and i have always had a big crush on her but never had the courage to tell her. I always wondered if she felt the same way. Amy was a very attractive girl, she had blonde hair, she had a slender body and she was huggable. She always came by my apartment to check on me and this time wasn't any different. What she didn't know was i began to feel a few changes happening with my body. I stood at the door examining how pretty she looked that I didn't know that she had been speaking to me. Suddenly i felt a bit of pain on my chest. "Ouch!, that hurt you know" i said rubbing the spot she had hit on my chest. "Uhuhn" she said keeping a straight face, "that's what you get for zoning out and worst of all, for leaving me at the door standing. I paused and kept staring at her. "Well are you gonna come in?" I asked paving the way for her with my hand. "No I'm not, I'm gonna stand here forever cause thats what i came to do" Amy responded in an attempt to be sarcastic. "Suit yourself then", i said walking away from the door leaving it wide open for her to come in when she'd like. I strolled to the couch facing the flatscreen television hung up on the wall and sighed heavily as i sat then laid down. I pulled out my phone from my left pocket of my pants ignoring the fact that i had left Amy standing at the door. "A**hole" i could hear her say under her breath, "can't even tell when I'm being sarcastic she still mumbled to herself. She came in through the door and shut it loudly behind her trying to get my attention. "What happened?, i thought you said you were going to stand there forever", i sId mockingly still staring into my phone. "Haha, you know you're annoying right?" She hit back pulling a strand of my hair as she passed over my head. "Really?" I asked now taking my eyes off the screen of my phone looking right at her. I could see that she had an expression on her face that said she was satisfied and happy with herself. "So i went by the office today and you weren't there, mind telling me why?" She asked me as she sat on my legs stretched out on the couch i was lying on. I didn't give her an answer but just nodded. "Why though?, you do know you can talk to me about all these things right?" She said with a lot of concern on her voice. But i still didn't say a word. After a while, Amy stood up from my legs and went down on her knees coming closer to my face. She placed both hands on my cheek and turned it facing her. Our eyes were locked and it made my heart race so fast. We were hardly ever this close. "I want you to know that I'm here for you no matter what okay" she said with a big smile on her face. "Yes" i answered with my cheeks pushed in. "Good, so what are you gonna eat?, cause you look like you've haven't had anything for days.... wait no.... weeks", she spoke letting go of my face and headed to the kitchen. "I guess pasta won't be b—-" I hadn't finished my sentence when two guys in funny masks brought down the door into the apartment. One of them was holding a gun and the other was holding a knife. Amy was about to scream when the guy with the knife immediately appeared right in front of her. I couldn't understand what was going on. It felt like he just disappeared and appeared right in front of Amy or was he just that fast. The man grabbed Amy by the throat and pushed her back against the wall. "Shut up or I'm the last thing you're gonna see". Amy nodded as her eyes started to get filled with tears. I stood there feeling helpless, there was nothing i could do. "Now calm down", the guy with the gun said while pointing the gun at me obviously to prevent me from making any sudden movements. "You're Don right?" He asked motioning the gun signaling for me to get on my knees. "Yes, i am". I answered. "What?, the kid is really him?", the man who had held Amy by her neck said as if disappointed. "He doesn't look it" he continued. I was confused. I had no idea what they were talking about. "I don't know what you're talking about", i spoke feeling a lot more scared. "Of course you don't know, and you don't need to", the guy pointing the gun at my said smiling as he c****d it. Amy screamed as she struggled trying to protect me but didn't succeed. "If you don't want to end up like you lil boyfriend there you'll remain quiet" the man said this time holding the knife closer to her eye. Amy stood still and turned to look at me and as i lifted my head i could see her face. She had a sad expression which said I'm sorry. Suddenly the sound of a gunshot echoed in the apartment. I had been shot and i was loosing consciousness. But something felt different. I could see a dark figure holding out a long sword covered in black flames. The dark figure walked up to me and placed his hand on my forehead and immediately my eyes opened. I could see Amy crying holding me in her arms and I could've sworn that i heard her say she loves me. I tilted my head a little and saw that the two men who had had us cornered were on the floor dead. "Don!, Don!, stay with me...helps coming" i could hear Amy as my eyes closed.
