A Way to Belong (An Obey Me! Fanfic)

Another Condition

What was it about Cassie's voice that cause Levi so much stress? Having run away from her, he stood in an empty corridor hoping no one would come looking for him. Now alone, he was able to calm down and think for a second.

Ever since he first met her he thought Cassie was strange, but having spent nearly a month around that strangeness turned into something else. Especially when she showed any amount of concern over him.

As he thought that, he recalled her face and every time she asked him if he was okay. He found himself blushing at just the thought. Levi groaned, holding his head low and muttering things to himself.

Whatever this was... Levi needed to do something about it.

While he left back for the house, Cassie returned to the council room. She was informed that everyone had already picked their jobs and picked who they would work with for both weeks. Cassie was the last person to need someone else to join her.

"I'll do it," Satan said, "if you're going to take the library, I'm better off joining you."

His response was to the point, something the girls were happy about. So, with everyone assigned the arrangements were as so—for the first week, Cassie and Levi would have their fill of Hocus Pocus; Quana and Asmo would be living it up at The Fall; Keris knowing her way around the kitchen and Beel's hunger would cook up Hell's Kitchen; and Jessica and Lucifer are wining and dining their guests at Ristorante Six.

The second week was finalized, but in case something came up, they held off on scheduling until the first week was over. So, after everything was set up, they could finally go home.

The girls were walking with the boys, but when Quana spotted Simeon she took this chance to talk with him, ushering the other girls to join her.

"Simeon, do you mind going with us somewhere?"

"Of course, where?"

Quana glanced back, being sure none of the brothers were close enough to hear her. "Honestly just anywhere private."

Looking behind the group and seeing the brothers, Simeon smiled at them and started to walk off. "Sure thing, I think I know somewhere good."

Quana let out a sigh of relief and urged everyone to keep up as they followed Simeon.

It wasn't a very long walk until they got to the main street where Simeon pointed just ahead of them to a store decorated with antiques none of them recognized.

"This is an Ancient Artifacts store, no one's sure to come in here and it's pretty small so we'll see if anyone does."

"That's more than perfect, thanks."

"Why'd you wanna be alone, Quana?" Keris asked.

She scoffed. "Why else?"

As they entered the store, they were met with an empty counter, but none of them paid much mind to that and gathered inside to talk.

"I wanted to ask you guys how we're gonna handle this."

"At this point, I've kind of given up on trying to reason with things. Besides, Beel and Belphie were cool with me at least." Keris explained.

"That's what I'm talking about, Mammon was acting really weird when he asked me to pick him."

"Weird how?"

"I don't know, like he was planning something. I'm just worried because I know I'm a huge target for something bad."

Jessica and Cassie nearly laughed.
