You And I: A Helluva Boss Fanfiction

Chapter 3: Kill Bill

2019

Max and Loona were quiet while walking home from the park.

Loona was just trying to process all the new information she had learned about her friend.

They had been friends for a year... and he never showed any sign of suffering. She didn't know that he was hurting so much.

Loona's thoughts were interrupted by Max speaking. "Can you please not tell anyone about this?"

Loona looked at her friend, confused. "Why?"

Max stopped walking for a moment. "Well... I never wanted any of you to learn about this... about... what happened to me... I didn't want anyone to worry about me... especially you, Loona."

Loona blushed at that last part and let him continue.

"I still don't want anyone to know or worry, but it's fine if you know... just... Please don't tell the others..." Max pleaded.

They had continued walking, and were now in front of the apartment building where Loona and Blitzo lived.

Loona sighed, unable to say no to him. "Alright. I'll keep your secret."

Max smiled and hugged Loona. "Thank you, Loona. You're a good friend."

Loona's blush deepened, and she hugged Max back.

———

It was an hour later, and Loona lay in bed, thinking.

When she had came in, she had checked on Blitzo and saw his sleeping while hugging a horse plushie.

Loona was thinking about what Max had said earlier.

"I'm going to fucking kill Lucy."

An idea occurred to Loona, and she picked up her phone to text Max.

———

Max was also laying in bed, thinking.

He was trying to keep his mind from going back to thinking about Lucy, but that was nearly impossible.

Trying as hard as he could, Max forced his mind to focus on something else. Someone else.

Loona.

Max found himself blushing a bit when he thought about the hellhound girl.

Loona continued to be on Max's mind.

He began to think about how pretty she was... how he pretended not to notice when she would blush and her tail would wag when they were interacting but he always noticed.

Did she... like him?

Max quickly dismissed the idea, of course she didn't.

He was just some guy she'd known for a year and happened to befriend, there was no way she felt anything else for him.

But he certainly felt something else for Loona. She was always so kinda and caring and helpful to him, and she was trying to comfort him...

It didn't take long for Max's thoughts of Loona to become a little less innocent.

He began to imagine how her lips would feel on his own... her arms wrapped around his neck in a loving embrace, deepening their kiss... her soft moans in between their kisses... her-

Max sat up, blushing madly. Am I seriously fantasizing about making out with Loona? God, Max! You idiot! Dumbass! Stupid! Brainless!

Max was interrupted by his cell phone chiming. He had gotten a text message.

It was from Loona. Remember when you said you wanted revenge on Lucy? The text message read.

Of course, why? Max replied, suddenly excited.

I might be able to help with that. Loona texted.

Max's heartbeat quickened. But before he could reply, Loona sent another text.

Tomorrow's Saturday, so we have the day off from work, and Blitzo leaves the Grimoire in his office. Meet me at work at 10 in the morning, and we can take a little trip to the human world. 

Max began to grin. Loona was amazing as always.

———

The next day.

10:04 AM.

Max entered the IMP office to see Loona waiting for him.

He smiled and tried not to think about how he fantasized about kissing her last night.

Loona smiled back and held up the Grimoire. The magical book that let the IMP crew travel to the human world to kill their targets.

"Are you sure you want to do this, Loona? We could get in trouble with Blitzo." Max asked.

Loona nodded. "I'm sure. It's worth it if I can help you get your revenge on her. She deserves it."

Max grinned. "Yes, she does."

——-

Loona used the book to open a portal, and the two of them stepped through it, but not before changing into their human disguises.

The two of them stepped in front of a giant mansion, where Max told Loona to direct them.

The mansion was old-looking, and built with red brick. It sat at the top of a hill.

"This," Max said, "Is the house that Lucy and I were going to move into after our honeymoon. I guess she just took everything for herself after I died."

Loona was about to ask about how he died, but thought better of it.

Instead, she asked about something else. "So you were rich when you were alive?"

Max nodded. "Very. I was born into a super wealthy family. I got everything I ever needed and wanted. I guess Lucy wanted the money and knew I'd be easy to manipulate."

Loona grabbed his hand, causing them both to blush. "Let's look around."

The two of them walked around the exterior of the house, taking everything in.

There were butlers all over the house, which Max knew would be a problem for him. He didn't want to kill any innocent people but if they stood in the way of his vengeance, he wouldn't hesitate.

Max and Loona climbed the trellis on the side of the house to look into the second floor, and Max looked into a window to find that it was Lucy's bedroom.

She was sitting atop the bed, calmly brushing her hair while humming to herself.

Seeing Lucy, Max suddenly felt fear clench his body.

And he felt even more fear as Loona's phone rang, surprising them both and causing them to fall down the trellis and onto the ground.

"Shit!" Loona yelled. "It's Blitzo! He's calling me!"

Max was trembling. "Someone must have heard that... let's get the fuck out of here!"

Loona obliged, opening the portal, and the two demons fled back to Hell.

———

Back in the IMP office, both Max and Loona were trying to catch their breath.

"Are you okay?" Loona asked Max.

It was a moment before Max responded. "Y-Yeah, I'm fine... just... it's hard seeing her again."

Loona felt sad at seeing Max's pain.

Max continued. "But... now I know where to go and what will be in the way... and next time, I'll be ready to kill her."

Hello to anyone reading! I hope you're enjoying the story so far. I know a whole lot doesn't happen in this chapter but I really meant it to be more of a transition chapter for what's to come. I'll try to get chapter 4 out as soon as I can!
