"Isn't red such a beautiful color?"
You giggled spinning around in your newly bought dress.
"Yes it is . It suits you"
Your childhood friend , Ivan, smiled as you two walked down the crowded streets. It was rather late but it was so lively.

"But really i could walk home by myself!" You looked at the stores .
"Last time i let that happen you got kidnapped , shot the kidnapper , ran away , stopped to play with a cat and got hit by a car and stayed in the hospital for two weeks so im not taking any chances" he pat your head as you let out a soft giggle .

"Well thank you for walking me home" you hopped up the stairs so you could kiss his cheek . He was way taller than you .
"You're welcome . Take care ok?" He waved and walked away.

Sighing you walked into your house and a shiver ran down your spine . There it was , staring at you with big red eyes . Turning the light on with shaking hands you heard it hiss and hide in the shadows. This creature had been haunting you for a while now and it was causing you insomnia and paranoia. You couldn't sleep much and you were very uncomfortable.

'Face your fears'
You thought and decided to talk to it .
"S-so mr. Poltergeist-"
It growled and its eyes glew brighter.
"No poltergeist? Okey then. Demon?"
It was silent this time .
'Fuck a demon is haunting my ass'
You mentally cried and started to sort out the things you bought .

"So , Mr. Demon , how was your day? Mine was good . I had breakfast and lunch with my friend and we shopped . Groceries and clothes and other things...."
You kept talking to it as you changed to your pajamas and cooked some dinner . It was quiet , never replying to anything but it was listening and following you around and staring at you . Though it always stayed in the shadows . All you could see was a figure and red glowing eyes .

"Have i ever told you my favorite color is red? Your eyes , well i guess they're your eyes , they're red . Its such a lovely yet dangerous color . Goodnight mr. Demon." You smiled and rolled to sleep .

Days passed and you had gotten used to it . You would talk to it and tell it about what happened and asked him some questions . Tho he never replied , you never gave up .

"So you know I'm trying to become a writer right? So for now I work as a journalist and write short stories . My boss just gave me like six new projects out of the nowhere he's such an ass!" You huffed as you made yourself pancakes so you could eat before you went to work.

"By the way do you eat? Can you eat human food?"
You looked at the dark corner it was standing in curiously as you munched on your pancakes . It didn't reply . You began to wonder if it even could talk or understand what you say .
"I'll leave you some pancakes . If theyre still here when I'm back i assume you either can't eat them or don't understand me" you left him two pancakes , grabbed your things and left for work .

"Bye mr. Demon"
