Beautiful Night (5)

{Alastor's POV (Still :3)}

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

A couple days had passed since i made that deal with Lucifer, spending time with him was pretty entertaining- I think i really would like to be his friend. What worried me slightly is that i haven't seen him at all today, and i really wanted to bug himm-

I didn't ask any of the hotel residents because i didn't want them to think that i actually cared about him that much, because i don't- I had looked all over the hotel but couldn't find him. But then i heard his violin playing, it sounded like it was by his room outside, but i had already checked his room and balcony.

When i arrived back at his balcony, i heard the angelic tune i had heard last time- better this time though. It sounded real close even though he wasn't seen here. It hit me quickly and i looked up on the roof, seeing him standing there with his Seraph wings on full display. He looked almost ethereal..

"Your violin playing sucks Blondie!" I shouted up at him. He stopped playing and glared at me.

"What do you know about violin, hm? Do you even know how to play?" He snapped back.

'sheesh, personal much?-'

He teleported his bow and violin away, probably in his room- and flew down in front of me.

"Why are you even here? Don't act as if you care.." He said quietly, I watched him walk over to the rails of the balcony and lean against them. I joined him by the rails shortly.

"I didn't see you at all today, just wanted to make sure you didn't die~" I teased, it didn't earn me the reaction I wanted however, it only made a golden tint show up on his cheeks as he looked away from me.

"Ah well, today hasn't been the best.." He admitted as he made a cigarette appear in his hand, lighting it with a small flame he made with his finger.

"I didn't take you as the smoking kind your majesty, any particular reason? I'm all ears, and you wouldn't mind giving me one, hm?"

He sighed, annoyed, before he made another smoke appear in my hand. He held his finger up, the same flame coming from it for me to light the cigarette in my hand. As I stuck the lit smoke in my mouth he put his hand down, the flame disappearing from it.

"I really don't like to do this, I only really smoke when I'm stressed.." He said, small puffs of cigarette smoke exiting his lips.

"Do tell, what's got you so down today? Why were you in your room all day?" I asked. I wanted to get more info from this conversation, not because I cared for his well-being. Just need things to insult him about~

"Well it's a long story really..first I really just didn't want to get out of bed this morning, I just laid there till fucking 2pm-" He started, I listened carefully to his frustrations, burning through the cigarette I had.

"I can't find my fucking pi- something I really need- and I'm experiencing these shitty withdrawal symptoms, I've had a horrible headache all day and felt like absolute shit-"

I didn't know he really needed those pills I took so bad, it's kind of pathetic seeing him so worked up. Those times over the days where he'd ask me to spend time with him all I've seen on his face was smiles, I've mastered smiles and reading them but I hadn't ever seen such misery on his..

"I hate to admit it- especially to you, but I did leave the hotel to go to a club..I thought I could fuck this shit out but that didn't help. Call me a whore or slut all you want- I don't give a crap..I just- I miss having that emotional connection with someone, I miss having someone to care about me."

To be fair I didn't quite catch a lot of that conversation after he had started talking about his sex life- ew- but also..I don't what it was but I felt kind of angry. I got snapped out of thought when he spoke up again.

"Y'know..you may not realize it because of your spite to one-up me but..we have quite a lot in common. Although you're still vastly different from me, there's a grey area with our similarities." He spoke up quietly, looking at me with such a fond smile plastered on his pale face, that golden tint present on his cheeks again. I'm never going to admit it to his face but I noticed a lot of things about him too, the differences and similarities, things that almost pulled me to him.

He was still working on the cigarette in his hand while I already finished mine, I just burned the remaining piece away in my hand. I saw Lucifer hop up on the rail of balcony, balancing on the metal bar.

"Why don't you sit down with me? Tonight the sky doesn't seem too bad..and it would be shame if we wasted this beautiful night." He looked back at me. I hesitated for a moment before carefully climbing up, standing next to him on the rails.

"I promise I'll catch you if you slip, so don't worry your fuzzy head about it Bambi~" I rolled my eyes at him and sat down, he followed suite shortly after. It was just me and him looking out at Pentagram city's skyline, the soothing ambience of chaos and screaming coming from the distance. The stars were faint, but they were quite pretty.

I soon felt Lucifer's hand brush up against mine, I flinched and pulled my hand away, I didn't want him to touch me so suddenly. When I looked at his face I saw him quickly avoid eye contact, he had a slight frown on his face- I'd assume from the denial of him holding my hand. I did want to show him some affection in this moment, but I didn't feel comfortable to.

I sighed and looked away, my hand creeping towards his. My ears laid back as I placed my pinkie on his, I felt him jolt but he didn't move his hand away. I took a quick glance towards him and saw him looking so fondly at our hands together, that gold shade prominent across his nose and cheeks.

I couldn't help but feel my face heat up too..
