Chapter 4 - Understanding

 Meet me at the club tonight.Another message,this time Tonya knew it was from Philip and she was going.She wanted him to explain what happened the other day,she wanted to hear all about his world,about vampires,demons and other creatures.She wasn't afraid anymore,not when he was next to her.
 At 8 p.m, Tonya put on a pink top and a skirt that looked to small for her and left the house.Half hour later she arrived at the club.It was crowded,as always.But she didn't notice it,she was only worried about finding Philip.She found him sitting next to an old man and sat next to him.
"Hey..."-she said.Philip turned to her and smiled.
"Hi.This is Charles.-Philip pointed to the old man-"he is my tutor,he trains me."
"So...You're not born magic?"
"I'm not magic Tonya..."-he said, holding her gaze for a while and then looking down-"My swords kill the creatures,not me."
"Then explain me everything,Philip!I want to know!I want to know who you are,what you are,how many creatures exist,...I want to know everything!"-Tonya demanded.
 He looked at her as if he didn't understand why would someone want to know so much about him and his world.
"There isn't much to know...I'm Philip Honory, I'm half human,half angel and I fight bloodsuckers and demons.Oh,and werewolves too.We're called Monster Slayers."
"So,it's not just you?"
"Of course not!"
"You're half angel?"-Tonya asked, a look of disbelief in her eyes.
"Well,usually Monster Slayers are the offspring of angels and demons,but my mom is human,wich makes me half angel,half human.But I'm as good as any other of my kind."
"Or better!"-said Charles,that had been surprisingly quiet until then.-"He has killed more monsters than any other Monster Slayer his age!"
 Philip smiled,it's always good to hear that from your tutor.
"Philip..."-Tonya said,she looked serious,maybe even sad,and Philip noticed it.
"What?"
"About yesterday...Are you...Are you really engaged?"
"So you've met Jessica...Yeah,I am."
"Do you love her?"-Tonya asked,staring at him.
"Why do you care anyway?"-he said,his happy face was now angry.
"She's...so old.."-Tonya looked sad and fragile.
"Look"-he said,standing up and walking towards her."I don't love her and I never will!My parents chose her for me!That's how it works in my world."
 Tonya regreted bringing up the subject.
"It's my favourite music,let's dance!"-she said.
"I'm not in the mood."
 She ignored what he said and took his hand,pulling him to the dance track.He put his arms around her,pulling her towards him.She put her arms around his neck and rested her head on his chest.
"I think I don't want you to get married"-she said,her voice barely audible.
"I don't know wether I sould be sad or happy about what you just said."
 She didn't awnser,in fact, they danced all night,without saying a word,his bodies next to each other.
