Tonight the sky's alive

The bare soles of Gabe's feet hit the top of the roof with a soft thud. He hadn't quite mastered the art of landing gracefully yet, but he'd gotten a lot better at it since the first day he had gone flying. That had ended up pretty disastrously when he hadn't been able to slow himself down; he'd ended up crashing through Bill's window - creating a nasty mess and nearly giving the poor boy a heart attack.

The atmosphere of tonight reminded him a little of that one, the air was nice and balmy, and there wasn't much wind. He'd been enjoying flying, and he was only beginning to come down from the high it gave off. He'd been too absorbed in what he'd been doing to pay attention to anything around him.

However now Gabe noticed that something was a bit off. He could hear footsteps, he was pretty sure there was someone coming up behind him. Racking his brains, he tried to think who it could be. Who else would have reason to be up on the roofs this late at night? Someone else who'd gone flying maybe? He hadn't seen anybody, but then again he had been observing the stretches of land and miniature-looking buildings below.

Gabe tensed, hunching his shoulders a little. He shifted his weight and slowly turned around to see who it was.

<div align=center>Levi practically hissed at the sight of a pair of white feathery wings, the hair on the back of his neck stood up, and his tail flicked like an angry cat. It was late, Levi perhaps should have been in bed, but it was a nice evening, besides, he'd already bothered Tyberius enough and the man was at the end of his tether with him. He was counting down the days until Ty really did hurl him out the window. He liked his room mate nonetheless, he wasn't really sure why, but there was something about that boy that made him keep going back for more. All Levi really got out of him was abuse, however. Not that he minded, he could give as good as he got.

But an angel. Those disgusting, dirty, sacred beings. Those vile little halos that glowed above their heads and those awful feathery wings that looked like they should be filling pillows. Just the thought of them makes me feel sick, makes my skin crawl. If there was something that a demon should steer clear of, it was angels. The demon wasn't all that sure what the creature could do to him, c'mon, they can't be that bad. What does his holiness above have that Beelzebub doesn't?

"Nice wings, asshole." Levi sneered, tail curling up behind him, "you steal 'em off a swan?" He'd had enough of feathered creatures recently, though, was it really a good idea to pick a fight? The size difference between the two was almost hilarious.</div>

The guy that stood before him was so tiny , that Gabe almost laughed at the fact that he was trying to pick a fight with him. He had to keep in mind that short didn't necessarily mean weak , and that he didn't know what kind of power this guy possessed. He could sense something dark.

" Thanks, dickhead. It's a shame I don't have horns coming out of my head like you, " Gabe laughed softly, without humour. The other man had wings too, all be it they weren't nearly half as large as Gabriel's and were rather dark in colour. Gabe looked at him a little more, trying to work out, where the suspicious feelings that were building up inside him, were coming from. Well it's not his from his hair. Though the horns that were sticking out of it...did raise some questions.

Then something clicked, and Gabe realised that this boy was a demon of some sort. Which one exactly he wasn't sure. He narrowed his eyes, "what do you want, anyway?" He had no idea what a demon would want with him, surely he'd be trying to steer clear of angels if anything?

<div align=center>"At least my horns are sexy," Levi answered, a ghost of a scowl crossing his features. Wings that large just seemed like an inconvenience, didn't they get in the way? Levi imagined so. At least wings as little as his could fit underneath shirts, or at least he could get them through holes made in shirts. They were pretty, plus. He never knew why they were different colours, Levi never remembered his mother, perhaps her wings had been white. His father however, had boasted a pair of huge purple wings that as a child, Levi had been immensely in awe of. His father wasn't a man he wanted to be in awe of anymore, though.

"Rude. You don't own the place, y'know." He hissed, this boy was self righteous as they come, and Levi picked up an instant dislike for him. Angels are all the same. He glanced idly at his nails, before yawning and stretching his arms above his head. "Bit late for you, isn't it? Who are you anyway?" He asked, this boy wasn't merely winged, Levi could feel it. The presence of something holy was lingering about him, it was making the incubus feel just a little nauseous.</div>

'At least my horns are sexy'. Gabe snorted at that but didn't say anything more on the topic of horns. He supposed in some ways he was jealous of how small the other boy's wings were, they'd be far more practical and he couldn't imagine they'd cause as much difficulty for the demon as his own did for him. He wouldn't trade his own wings for the world though, he'd grown to like them a lot even if they were a bit frustrating at times.

"I'm aware, " Gabe answered back, his tone had become a small bit colder. He narrowed his eyes as he watched Levi. The guy seemed so full of himself it was frustrating. Gabe didn't even realise that he came across the same way. "However you did just insult me out of nowhere, so I feel that I've a right to ask you what the hell you're doing.

"Nah. I don't really need that much sleep. " Gabriel glanced down at the shorter guy. He didn't need half as much sleep now that he'd become an angel, for whatever reason. When he slept a full night it was more from habit and laziness than an absolute need to sleep that long.

Gabe was usually quite quick to supply people with his name. However he didn't trust this guy, not one bit. He wasn't sure how much information to give out. "Why do you wanna know? He asked, before hesitantly giving out his name, after all it couldn't do that much harm could it? " I'm Gabriel. Who are you? "

<div align=center>"God damn you're rude. Not even Ty's as bad as you." An eyebrow flickered up, this guy sure could give it, but when he got it back he flinched. Levi thought it was funny, at least his estranged room mate could take it. "Bet you don't have many friends, gee. So pretentious." At least Ty was fun. "My name is Levi." The demon answered, he had half a mind to shove the other boy off the roof, but seemingly that wouldn't effect him one bit, said the gargantuan wings sprouting from his back. Angel Gabriel. Lame. Levi slept far more than your average human did, but that was probably because he was lazy.

"Gee, you're snappy, aren't you?" The boy pouted just a little, "guess I caught you at your time of the month, sorry, snookums." He cupped his face in his hands and tilted his head, giggling softly and hovering up next to the angel. He was attractive, however, and Levi liked attractive. He didn't even reach Gabe's shoulder, it made him feel very short all of a sudden, though he was able to gain height with a few flaps of his wings. At least hanging around in the air like this didn't make him feel inferior.</div>

Gabe had no idea who Ty was, so he wasn't quite sure how to take that piece of information. "I'm not rude, he denied, with a hint of a frown. Gabe wasn't quite as good at taking it as he was at dishing it out, unfortunately for him. It made him look a little immature at times. In fairness though, he could be a lot lot worse.

"Pretentious, really? " Gabe raised an eyebrow, genuinely thrown off by the comment. He'd never considered himself to be pretentious. He couldn't really see it, though perhaps that was one of his problems, it took a lot for him to see his own flaws. Unless they were major ones. "Speak for yourself, I've plenty of friends. " Gabe snapped.

Levi...hmm I think I've heard of that guy. Gabe couldn't remember why the name rang a bell, but perhaps it was from some kind of rumour going around. He wasn't sure. "Sorry I don't take kindly to random insults. " Gabe laughed, and raised an eyebrow at the man. He was kind of enjoying this, he'd never admit it out loud. "Maybe you should take a lesson or two in how to not piss people off. "

<div align=center>This was funny. This kid was getting more and more riled up and Levi didn't even feel a trace of anger. He's getting upset. Levi instantly decided this man was irritating as hell. Perhaps he would have been less so if he wasn't behaving like a kid. "Plenty of friends? Really? Like who?" Levi asked lazily, he was having fun. The more riled up Gabriel got, the funnier Levi thought it was. He was really offering himself on a silver platter to the incubus, Levi knew what he didn't like now. So he completely used that to his advantage. "Aw, poor baby doesn't like me teasing him."

He ran a hand through his hair, dark eyes flickering over the angel. "You're trying to be funny and witty," the boy yawned, "you just kinda sound like an idiot." Levi more or less knew exactly who Gabriel was. Of course people were freaking out about him, he'd died and magically arisen from the dead. Yawn. "Damn. You're super disappointing." Gabriel was more like a child in real life, he's whiney and annoying. At least he's got a pretty face. The incubus yawned again, fangs sparkling against the moonlight.

"Aren't you going to entertain me, then?" He asked, letting a streak of charm slip into his voice, "I'm sure you're just having a bad day. C'mon, you can't be this lame all the time, right?"</div>

The fact that Levi was amused by the whole situation only served to further irritate Gabriel. However he realised that getting pissed off was exactly what Levi wanted him to do, compose yourself Gabriel. He didn't want the incubus to get his way, so he'd have to become calm.

"You probably wouldn't know them anyway. " Gabe answered, skipping around the question. He could have named his boyfriend, and then William's roommate but apart from that did he really have any close friends? He had plenty of acquaintances but he not really any one he'd feel comfortable enough naming for Levi.

"Don't really give that much of a shit, to be honest." Gabe denied. He was feeling a little ashamed that he'd let the man find out that he was pissed off. He usually was able to mask his emotions a lot better, he preferred it that way. This guy was good at reading people though, he found their weaknesses and latched onto them.

Gabe pretty much ignored the comment about him trying to be witty. He hadn't exactly been trying to do that, but he felt like arguing his case would be giving Levi something to feed off. "Disappointing?" Gabe echoed, raising his eyebrow. "What were you expecting?" He didn't even think the boy would have known who he was, or that he'd had expectations for him.

'Aren't you going to entertain me, then? ' Gabe wasn't quite sure what Levi was talking about, though he did notice his change in tone. A wave of suspicion washed over him, "what do you count as entertainment?"

<div align=center>"I know a lot of people. More than you." The boy answered, "probably slept with most of them actually." He added in an undertone, tail flicking lazily back and forth as he spoke. The worst part of that sentence was that it was probably completely true, when Levi got bored he tended to cause trouble, and the only way he could cure his boredom was the only way he knew how - doing what an incubus did best. At least now he had a fun room mate to play with, and by fun that meant the most terrifying person Levi had ever met. Lots of fun to irritate, though.

"People talk about you. You died and came back or something." Though he could see that, the wings gave off enough, and that sickeningly holy aura hanging around him that could have made Levi gag. "Someone cool as hell y'know? I'm disappointed. You're not cool at all." He wondered if you could die and become an incubus, he didn't think so. You were either born one or nothing. Levi shrugged, what did he could as entertainment? Annoying this guy was fun enough. He could probably have named something ten times as fun, though. Might as well take advantage of a pretty face. "You're kinda cute though." It was easy to register the boy's change of tone, if he couldn't spend all evening pissing him off then he'd sure as hell seduce him.</div>
