Idk if I have anything to say at the moment so enjoy the story <3 -Rocky

"Can I please have a look at your wings? They really don't look good." You insisted. It's been a day since Adam rested in your quarters, no one has seen him yet which was a good thing.

"Hey! No. They're perfectly fine!" Adam pulled away from you every time you suggested it. He hated the idea of such a low lifer touching his most precious, most manly, most angelic, most holy -you get the just- part of him.

It was clear as day, or as clear as the day got in hell, that his wings were badly damaged too. They had feathers pulled out (Nifty's collection is now complete) and they looked super messy. You always noticed how he winced when he moved position and it was clearly caused by them.

"I know you say they're 'perfectly fine'", you used air quotes, "but no one down here is perfect so I suggest you drop the act of 'I'm perfect' and let me heal ya."

That hit him like a brick. You just called him imperfect. Him? The first man! Imperfect?! Atrocious!! He was made to be perfection, he was the image of God himself, he was the man! But all he was now.. was fallen. "Don't let yourself fall to those thoughts, Adam, you didn't fall. You're just stuck down in hell.. yeah. Stuck..." He tried to reassure himself mentally.

Adam declined, once again, and you gave up for the day. And just try make him feel comfortable until he actually gives in sooner or later.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was a working day in the V Tower.

Vox was just chilling currently, not like he does anything special all day other than rant about Alastor all day long on the news since he went "missing".

Vox was watching the cameras around the tower, spying on Valentino, checking on Velvette and looking at what you were up to these days, since he hasn't seen you in a while. He knew you were healing people since that's what you did after exterminations but he decided to check on your living room anyway.

Vox clicked on a key that selected your living room. He only had one camera on your floor because despite him being a total douche bag, he had common sense and gave you the privacy you needed, as much as a camera in your living would give.

He had to double take what he just saw. A man. Well on a normal occasion that wouldn't mean a damn thing, but he recognised the man. That was the Leader of the Exorcists, obviously you'd know that right? His face was all over the news literally a few days ago!

Vox called in his assistant, (I'm gonna use the name the fanbase gave him) Peppermint, who was holding a little board and a pen in his hands.

"Cancel any appointments I have for today, I need to talk to Y/N" Vox said in his usual monotone and impatient tone as he turned around on his chair and was ready to sit up.

"But sir? Why would you need to cancel all appointments if it's only a talk?" Peppermint asked with an uncertain tone.

"Quiet, it's none of your business, just do as you're told." Vox glared at his assistant and stood up. Peppermint nodded and left the room as soon as he could.

Vox stood up and reached for a camera nearby on the ceiling, touching it he teleported to the entrance doors of your floor and knocked, a fake smile plastered on his face, hands behind his back as he waited for you to open the door.

You opened the door and you were not expecting your flat faced friend at the door at this time. "Vox? What can I do for ya?" You said smiling, leaning on the doorframe.

"Y/N, dear, can I speak to you for a minute." Vox didn't ask, he looked past you to where Adam was resting on your couch and then back at you, "outside?"

Raising an eyebrow, you follow him outside of your floor apartment and talk to Vox just outside the door. He didn't waste any time.

"Y/N, you do fucking realise that that's the Leader of the Exorcists... right?" Vox gestures to the door.

"How would you know? He told me he's just a normal sinner, and he was hurt. Adam didn't get hurt?" You asked confused. The first man has always held a grudge against you for some reason and you and him had rivalries in the past when you were still up in heaven. Never got along, it became a popular entertainment for the other angels.

"He did! It was all over the news like- 2 days ago! I was the one who set the news up for that! Did you not watch the TV?" Vox was close to disbelief.

"Haha.. well no not really, y'know scrambles the brain" you pointed your fingers to your head and spun them a few times to mimic dizziness.

Vox looked unimpressed, "really? Whatever, Y/N, that is Adam. You have to believe me."

"Vox you and I both know you're the biggest manipulator, and liar of all Hell. How would I know this is the truth?"

"I don't lie to my friends!" Vox said incredulously

"You can trust me. And plus, I can protect myself, I'm a fallen angel for God's sake, I'd be more powerful than the 'first man', don't you think?" You tried to reassure him.

"Fine. But I still don't trust him, and I'll keep an eye on him. And then when you find out he is actually Adam as in the first man, I'll rub it in your face.

"We'll see about that" you said crossing your arms.

"Whatever you say, sweetheart, just don't die." Vox said as he turned his back to you, ready to leave.

"Like you'd care." You say a bit more rudely than intended.

Vox was already walking away towards a camera to teleport through as he whispered, "I do" he looked back and glitched through the camera.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By the end of the day the rest of the Vees have given you a private lecture to be careful with your new patient. They all said pretty much the same thing along the lines of "as long as he's in the V tower we have the right to kill him if he hurts you." Or something like that.

It was going to take a lot of time for them to get adjusted to him, you already knew that he was going to stay for a long time. He was severely injured and even if he was your enemy you wouldn't let him go like that through the streets of Hell. Heaven maybe, but hell? No.

Plus you still weren't sure it was your actual enemy and this might as well just be a random sinner that just looks like Adam. And has the same name.. and oddly acts like him. But nevermind that, the world is small, coincidences happen.

Your job was to protect him, what happens in the future, no one will know.

WADDUP BABYY, hope you enjoyed this chapter :3 plz give it a lil vote if you did and stay tuned for more, love ya🤘
