Hazbin and Helluva Shorts II

Andrealphus and Viola

Andrealphus arrived at his sister's home. She was having another party tonight. Her husband welcomed him and let him in. Many other Goetia had already arrived. Sure it was rude to come late, but Andrealphus was always fashionably late without a care in Hell. The temperature dropped once he stepped into the foyer. He grinned and took a glass of fine red wine from one of the Imp butlers passing by. Eventually, one of the ladies caught his cold eyes. He strode up and introduced himself. Her name was Viola. She was a penguin. She was also single. Andrealphus offered to take her to dinner some night. She raised an eyebrow. It wasn't often that men were so forward with her. But she accepted his offer. Viola spent the rest of her evening by his side. It was clear that they were going to become a couple very soon.

Andrealphus and Viola dated for a few months before moving in together. Two years later, they were married. The whole Goetia race had high hopes for them to have a long future together. The couple already had plans from vacations across the rings of Hell to big dinners with his sister's family. Things were tense at times. But they were determined to make it work out. Andrealphus and Viola had known marriage would be a challenge. But nothing could have prepared them for the roller coaster over the next few years. She had been under suspicion after being seen talking to those of the lower classes. Of course, she didn't care. Viola was a businesswoman and had been making an offer in hopes of expanding one of the companies. She rolled her eyes as she repeated. Eventually, she called her associate. Everyone finally shut up.

As tense as the marriage was, Andrealphus and Viola knew it had to work one way or another. There were days they got along and even went out on dates. Then three days full of fighting. It was hard to tell what direction their relationship was headed. But one thing was for certain. Neither Andrealphus nor Viola were looking back.
