Alastor POV:
Ah, Cannibal Town. My favorite place in all of Hell. I look around for my friend who doesn't seem to be where she usually is.

"Alastor!" a voice says from behind me. I turn around expecting it to be Rosie.

"Ah, hello Mary. Lovely to see you again." I say to the short female. Mary is one of my first friends, I met her through Rosie.

"I'm so sorry I couldn't help out in the battle! Rosie might've mentioned it but I was away on some..important business." she mumbles the last bit.

"I presume this 'important buisness' was your father asking you for something?" Mary didn't have the best home life, but she cares for her family either way and is all too kind to that disgrace of a father of hers.

"Nevertheless, it's quite alright dear. The battle was very dangerous, and as much as you are capable of defending yourself, it's probably best that you didn't join." I put a hand on her shoulder.

"Still..I wish I could have been if more use to you all. By the way, are you here to see Rosie?" she questions. I nod in response.

"Well she's just right behind me, there's some new arrivals that we were showing around." As if on cue, Rosie started walking over to us.

"Alastor! What brings you here? Don't need us to fight in another battle do you?" She jokes.

"Haha! Good to see you again too, my friend. I actually came here to discuss something with you that is quite..personal." I look over at Mary.

"Alright alright, I'll leave you two alone. Tell me everything Rosie!" Rosie chuckles a bit, waving goodbye to her.

"Come now Alastor, lets talk about this over some tea shall we?"

Rosie POV:
"So, what is it you need to talk about?" I ask curiously.

"Well...I understand you are very good when it comes to, emotions. Am I right?" I nod.

"I seem to be experiencing some new ones that I don't quite understand." I chuckle at that.

"So you need me to help you recognize what these feelings are is what I'm hearing?" He looks to the side embarrassed a bit.

"Well, tell me what these new feelings feel like." I assert.

"These feelings..they only happen when I'm around a specific person. I have this strange wanting to always be near them, and for some reason I don't hate it when we touch? I also feel a burning sensation on my face but not a bad one. The last thing is, I get a sort of anxious or excited feeling in my stomach when I see them." He finishes.

"Oh Alastor, those are called butterflies. What your experiencing, is love." I reveal. His eyes widen in response to me remark.

"Listen, I thought you were an ace in the hole, but being ace is a spectrum. So I fully believe that you are in love with whoever this person is." Now he just looks confused.

"Ok seriously, what on earth is 'ace'?" I sigh and explain to him what it means to be ace.

"Oh..and your saying this is a spectrum?" I nod.

"Huh..then I suppose no matter how much I don't want to admit it, I have developed feelings for him.." my ears perk up.

"Him?" I question with a smirk. Alastor's face turns a deep red.

"Mind telling me who 'He' is? Afterall, I helped you figure out you like him." I state. Alastor sighs.

"You have to swear not to tell a single soul." He grunts.

"Of course I swear! Now do tell!" I declare excitedly.

"You won't believe this, but it's the King of Hell himself. Lucifer Morningstar." My jaw drops.

"Wow. When you shoot, you really shoot high don't you Alastor?" I express. He chuckles at that.

"I suppose my standards are quite high..but that's because I'm such a prize myself my dear!" I give him a smile.

"Well, I wish you the best of luck darling. Do tell Mother Rosie what happens when you confess." I wink. His face gets a bit red.

"Oh come on now, you have to confess at some point. Trust me, Rosie knows best!" with that, we say our goodbyes as Alastor leaves Cannibal Town.

"The King of Hell..who would've thought?" Mary remarks.

"Were you eavesdropping? You know that's not very polite." I tell her.

"Sorry..but do you think he will confess? Isn't the King married?" she replies.

"To be fair, the Queen hasn't been seen for a while. And I'm sure Alastor will, eventually. He just needs to get over his stubborn ass."
