Dice wakes up with a yawn and a stretch, smiling as he sees the Devil next to him, "So it wasn't a dream."

"No sugar cube, it wasn't." The devil says, still half asleep.

Dice laughs breathlessly and gets up, "I gotta sneak back to my room now, I'll see you at work?"

"Mhm." The Devil says sleepily.

Dice manages to get back to his room without being seen, even though he knew the other casino workers would eventually figure it out. He wanted the devil to decide when or if they went public. After all, the devil had more on the line than he did. Sure Dice had a reputation to keep. But he would give up everything he had worked so hard to gain just to be with the devil. But the Devil was the king of hell, his reputation could be destroyed if the other demon princes found out that he was dating a mortal of all things. He sighs as he finishes putting on his make up.

Eventually he makes his way down to the Casino floor. And he's met by all the workers staring at him.

"What?" He asks.

The workers look at each other, nervously, before Mr.Wheezy is pushed forward.

"Well come on. We don't have all day." He says impatiently.

"Well um... Ya see...."

"Out with it Wheezy." He snaps.

"We got a message." Wheezy says, rubbing the back of his neck.

Dice raises an eyebrow, "And that's gotten you all so worked up, why?"

"It's a message from," he swallows nervously, "Upstairs." He says, pointing skywards.

"What?!"
