Against all odds - Minsung [✔]

It was now their second week of living together. Minho refused to refer to Jisung as his roommate. Every night, he curses himself for not letting the puny human fall to his death on the staircase.

It was weird because no matter how hard he tried to frighten or shock Jisung, he would never give up trying to befriend him. He always seemed to be able to find him no matter where he hid.

Jisung would talk and talk to him until he could feel his ears burning—not because he was feeling flustered, but because of pent-up rage. And he hated to admit it but, Jisung was actually a fairly decent cook. But he'd never, ever tell him that, of course.

He would leave a plate for him at the table every night, and once Minho was sure that Jisung was asleep, he'd devour the whole meal.

Demons didn't need food to survive since they were already dead. But Minho is a gluttonous person—and that was the first reason why he didn't make it to heaven. The second reason was...

He was slightly murderous.

But he never killed random innocent people though. He only killed those who were annoying.

Two nights later, he drifted into Jisung's room while he was sound asleep. This was it. This was his chance to finally get rid of this strangely beautiful pest that followed him around like a shadow.

He hovered over Jisung, an evil smile forming across his lips. He wrapped his hands carefully around the human's neck, which to his surprise—was so soft and warm.

He grinned. He wanted to watch as Jisung took his last breath and fall into a deep sleep that he'd never wake up from—so he began to squeeze his neck tightly.

Jisung's eyes opened wide, but he didn't look frightened. He looked... very excited for some reason. Minho was taken aback by his weird reaction and loosened his grip.

Jisung smiled timidly. "Well, if you wanted to kiss me, all you had to do was ask. Consent first dude."

Minho glared at him and let out an annoyed sigh. "Go back to sleep, Jisung." He groaned and flew into another room. Damn it. Better luck tomorrow.
