“So tell me about them.”
“About what?”
Lucifer smirked at me,
“Your accomplishments in life.”
“I doubt you want to hear them. They aren’t big accomplishments.”
“Try me.” He said as I pulled out a wide toothcomb and started combing my hair.
“Well, once in the fifth grade I won an award in my class for reading the most books.”
Lucifer smiled,
“How many did you read?”
“Six in one month.”
He nodded, still with a smile on his face,
“Continue.”
“In seventh grade, I had gotten really into writing and I had written a short story as part of an assignment and my teacher had said it was one of the most interesting stories she ever read.”
His smile grew even wider and so did mine. It felt good to tell someone about them. Someone who did care.
“Oh and in my junior year of high school, I scored over 100% on my English test.”
Lucifer laughed,
“How did you manage that?”
“I answered all the extra credit questions.”
Duh.
We laughed as he got up off the bed and stood behind me, placing his hands on my shoulders.
“Then in my senior year, I won a scholarship for a poem that I had written.”
“I didn’t know you went to college.”
I didn’t.
“I didn’t, my mother had other more important things she wished to pay for instead”
“Like what?”
“A new car for herself.”
His grip on my shoulders tightened,
Before he could say anything I continued,
“But I made the best out of it I ended up finding a job at a bookstore before I graduated and I had the best time, There was plenty of time to read and scribble a few ideas down.” I smiled remembering all the fun I had working at the bookstore. All the fun displays for new releases we did, and all the amazing authors that had stopped in from time to time.
“Graduation day was great, I spent the day getting my hair and makeup done, I spent a good amount of money on a pretty dress to wear, I-I even got a little sash to wear.”
