Time is 𝚙𝚛𝚎𝚌𝚒𝚘𝚞𝚜 (An Alastor X Reader)

Tomorrow is another day

"So why are you here my dear~?"
-------------------------------------------------------------
"Why do you want to know hm?" I raise an eyebrow "well. You're a past overlord, I would think you had SOME reason of coming here" he looked at me with a tilted head. I could tell he was genuinely interested "well. After almost dying" I glare at him to which he laughs almost sarcastically "I was recovering for 17 years." He raised his eyebrows "17? Really?" I nod "I was on the verge of death. But. I'm a tough cookie" I wink he chuckled a bit "I woke up and realized that it had been some time since I was active in hell. So I walked around to find a lot of things had changed and I really didn't have anywhere to stay." He nodded "so I saw a flyer on a post for the hotel and figured it would be an interesting place to stay. Not that I'm here for redemption of course, but. It is nice, I must admit, to see these sinners struggle to try and redeem themselves." He nodded understandingly. "Well. I suppose that's a valid reason" "I would sure hope so" I chuckle. I glance to my clock, which was stood next to an hourglass, all the sand on one side. "It sure is getting late hm?" He looked at the time himself "I suppose so... Say. Would you like to join me on the roof top?" I look back at alastor, raising an eyebrow. "What for" "oh you know, to chat, maybe have a few drinks if you so desire. I took a moment to think "well I don't see why not." I stood up and so did he, we walked to the elevator and took it up to the roof, once we got there I snapped my fingers as a pair of chairs appeared "why thank you my dear" I nodded and sat down, he did as well. "You know.... For this being hell, it's actually a sight to see at night." He turned to the city below "Well, I suppose you're right" we sat in silence for a moment, I was focused on looking at the world below not noticing he was staring at me until I turned to him "what? Do I have something on my face?" He shook his head "No. But you do have a look that is quite hypnotic" I raise an eyebrow "Ok Mr. Flirt, whatcha trying to do here hm?" I smirk he just shook his head and laughed "oh nothing my dear, I was just saying." I hm'd in response, I snapped again as a bottle appeared in my hand. "Fancy some Brandy Alastor?" "My, you do have quite the taste" he suddenly had two glasses in his hand which I filled, he handed one to me as I set the bottle on the floor "So tell me (y/n)." "Hm? " he looked me in the eyes "How did you manage to get to hell?" I paused, surprised at the question. "Honestly... I'm not sure" I took a swig from my glass "I don't remember too much from my life before this. I only remember the fact it was miserable." I shrug "How so?" "I don't feel like going into detail" he nodded "understood" I took a few more sips from my drink before looking back at alastor "So, Al." "Yes my dear?" He said after taking a swig from his drink "do you have any demons under a leash~?" His grin widened "why yes I do my dear" I raise an eyebrow "is that so?" He nodded "you know husker right?" "Oh really? You got the cat hmm?" He laughs "indeed I do~" I finished off my drink "well that's very interesting to know~" "It is isn't it?" I nod "well. I have an Outing tomorrow in a meeting with some other overlords, care to join me" "they won't know who I am" "but wouldn't it be nice to not have to hide so much my dear?" I think for a moment "so you want me to just tell them?" He nods. I sigh and think more "I suppose you're right.." He raises an eyebrow "alright, fine. I'll go with you" His smile widens "Wonderful my dear! How truly wonderful!" I take out my pocket watch and check the time "it's getting quite late" He looked over at me "why yes, I suppose it is" He stands up and I follow "Care if I take you to your room my dear?" I smile "why of course" He starts walking and I walk beside him. When we finally arrive at my room he stops at the door "I had a lovely time with you tonight (y/n)" "As did I" "I'll see you tomorrow then hm?" "Indeed" and with that he took a small bow and walked away, I watched him leave before going into my room and changing into clothes to sleep in before finally laying down and falling asleep.
