Summary
“Crowley.”
Crowley’s name was spoken heavily. The sound hung in the air between the two of them, like a thick cloud of smoke, waiting to be evaporated before one could assess the situation.
Crowley’s knuckles tighten around the leather wheel. Aziraphale has been doing this a lot lately: speaking the demon’s name, each vowel carefully rolling off his tongue, like he was audibly savoring the dark undertones of the taste, letting a silence heavy in the air right after.
It made Crowley’s neck prickle, the tiny hairs standing with attention. The way they did when danger was in sight, or consequences he’d ignored the moment he indulged, following his gut while his intellect rolled out the regret he’d later face.
But no consequences came when the angel evoked this feeling in him, confusing and gradually building up expectations in Crowley’s mind.
Yet every time Aziraphale spoke his name like that again, Crowley’s insides jumped and lined up for defense, keeping him in a heady state. Every time Crowley thought he could relax, the angel did it again.Frankly, it was driving him insane.
