leave it to make a demon to make his cheeks flush with a flattered blush. their fingers upon their skin, caused goosebumps to rise in response. helmin's soft hand that he desperately ached for was suddenly taken away to calm their own internal quarrel.
"don't worry about me right now, okay?" damien requested in a sweet whisper. a soft kiss was placed to their forehead.
"i promise i won't use this against you. you're safe right now. it's just me." he reassured.
unsure of how to comfort an infernal, damien resorted to gently petting the demon's head and keeping quiet as helmin began to speak. letting them adjust in his arms as they saw fit. when their eyes locked, it was that very moment when damien realized how genuine their relationship has been. they have never lied to him and never strung him along the way others do. helmin trusted him the way he trusted her. even in their deeply personal emotional turmoil, damien was certain he wasn't going to be harmed.
"oh man, is it one of those hunter assholes?" he asked with a dramatic eye roll. "i know some of those turds. the worst ones are always the priests. some of them actually do deserve to be eaten."
the musician then paused, eyes now torn away to look at his recording software. he has comforted plenty of crying fans. why was he struggling to find the right solution to this problem?
"let's just kill the guy. i'll come with just in case.then, that loser will leave you alone for good." without another word, he scooped helmin into his arms and carried them through his home. instead of taking them to the front door, he carried them bridal style into his bedroom. gently setting them down upon his soft king sized mattress. "we'll do it first thing in the morning."
the dark sheets were clean. yet, his bed was unkept and the large pillows were on different ends of the bed. warmed up fingers reached for the straps of their heels, taking the blister magnets off for them and setting it aside with care.
"you left your bunny slippers the last time you were here. those shoes can't possibly be comfortable." damien temporarily left their side to go to his large closet to scout for the clean pink slippers. "you may be an a kick ass demon. but, you're not immune to blisters, babe."
with the fluffy slippers hooked between two fingers, the brunette dropped to his knees in front of them. the frontman set the slippers onto the dark hardwood and gazed up towards his situationship. a small smirk crept onto his features.
"kinda funny picturing a priest in a club." damien jested with a soft kiss pressed to helimin's inner knee. "was he a good tipper before he threatened you?"
