I was back in heaven. This was a huge reminder that I don't drink alcohol. It's still a little fuzzy but memories have came back slowly. I realized I've made a huge fool of myself.

Even if I did, I can respect the fact Alastor never once handled me in a way that wasn't polite. He's a nice dude.

I had on a simple f/c dress with the same locket Rosie gave me to add in. I can't explain why but I love that necklace. Maybe my two best friends are in it. In a way, Rosie treats me like a daughter. I wonder if that's just a normal thing for her.

Anyway time for me to head off to the store. I decided to take off for the day because I'm not exactly ready to face Alastor after that night and I just need a break from focusing on nothing.

Plus it's been a while since I've enjoyed a good ole shopping spree. It's been even more time since I've seen my girlfriends.

I made it to the mall then met up with Allison and Luna. Luna has been the only friend since school that I've stayed in contact with.  The rest of them drifted away since getting their jobs so it happens. Luna is an artist. So other than the grueling hours it takes to do the art stuff, she always has time to spend with me.

"Bestieeee" Luna ran up and gave me a big ole hug. This woman is only 4'11 but she has the hug strength of a Greek god.

"Hey hey relax" I smiled, returning the gesture of affection.

"We got about three hours to spend before getting back to work" Allison sounded like my mother.

I rolled my eyes "I know, I only need a few things."

All three of us walked into a little clothing store. It looked like every other store here. White gold, all the pretty nice colors. The only thing about this store,especially one that I liked, is that it has solid black clothes here. It's very rare to ever see any of that in heaven so I was delighted to know it exists. Luna found it for me whenever I had first gotten my job and she told me I needed 'blending in clothes and hide from the public clothes'

I needed new sweats and sweaters. The one that I typically wore to hell, was completely ruined. Demolished. I could fix it butttttttt I wanted to try on more dresses too. Why not, right?

So let me give you a fun little fact. Angels and demons can snap on clothing butttt it's only clothing they've personally had tailored or purchased. It's almost like we gain some sort of closet in our minds. It's fun! The only exception would be demons and Angel who are in the fashion industry and create their own clothing. They can manifest whatever clothing they want. Like a bottomless closet

I do not have a bottomless closet

I grabbed a handful of dresses and like normal, have to have a model montage to find the right one.

Meanwhile...

Slurp. Slurp. Slurp. Alastor and Rosie enjoy their afternoon tea together. They spent every afternoon for all kinds of tea.

"Ugh Alastor I know. I've told her multiple times. Fox is out but she never listens" Rosie grimaced.

"Ah yes. That bitch and her scarf" Alastor sighed, sipping his tea again. Fucking Susan.

"You know, Alastor. Our little friend, y/n." Rosie looked over to him "her birthday is in 4 days"

"Is that so?"

Rosie dropped her smile "you really didn't know?"

Alastor made a little radio screeching sound.

"She told us. Two years ago! You really don't remember"

Alastor tried to think of the day

"We were out eating seafood"

"Oh! I do. However I remember disassociating a bit when you started to talk about bras. As a gentleman, I thought it was rude to listen in so I must've skipped over to her talking about her birthday"

Rosie wanted to slap him but resisted the urge. She was in a public place after all.

"Maybe you should plan something"

"Why would I do that?"

Rosie just looked at him "really"

"What?"

"You're telling me the woman you have a 'thing' for, you don't want to plan something?"

"I don't have a 'thing' for her like you think. She's just a good friend"

"Are you that much of a psychopath that you can't see that you have taken more of a liking to her compared to every other woman in hell you're 'good friends' with"

"That's not true"

"Really? Describe her Alastor"

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

I was able to find the perfect dress. It was black with red lacing. It was definitely a dress made for hell but I thought that maybe I could switch up the sweats that I normally wear

"So y/n, you're birthday is coming up. Do you have any plans" Luna asked me with a big ole smile

"Just working."

"Really!?! But you're going to be turning 24!"

"Yes but I'll be 2400 in a blink of an eye. I should get used to just thinking it's a normal day for me"

"You're ridiculous"

"I am not"

"I agree with Luna" Allison hopped into the conversation.

"Why?" I said, packing up the dress to purchase along with a few other things

"Because, it's still a special day. You were created and you exist! It all matters in my book" Allison smiled.

We all walked to the cashier station and checked out.

"Maybe we can go out for drinks. I only have 476 orders of miniatures to make so it shouldn't take me long"

"How about we plan something for a day after? Truth is, I already have plans on my birthday" I lied. I just didn't want to get into the fact that the only thing I want to do on my birthday is see Alastor. As embarrassing as it is to lie, it's even more embarrassing to admit that my best friend is a demon

"Oh really. You have plans, you just said you have work" Allison glared at me.

"I do. I am going to work as normal but afterwards" I couldn't hide my blush at this point. Thinking of Alastor and I just having our normal day really messes with my emotions. I don't know if it's bad or good really.

We had made it to a delicious Chinese place in the food court and got our meals.

After finding a table to sit at, we continued on with the conversation

"You're blushing" Luna gasped

"I am not!" I tried to argue

"You totally are!!!!" Allison almost shouted "who is he!"

"He?" I stammered on my words "he's just a friend"

"Oooooooouuuuuuuu" they both squealed "you have a crush"

"I do not!" I shouted loud enough that the nearby table to could hear.

Allison noticed how uncomfortable I was getting and decided to end the topic.

"Well whoever he is, I hope that he treats you right. I know some of the men in heaven can be too much" Luna finished off the conversation.

"On a similar topic. I heard that heaven borne tend only fall in love once" Allison looked at the both of us "like birds in a way."

Luna and I thought about it for a moment. Most of heavens creatures do have some bird like tendencies. Guess she's not completely wrong. My parents had been together for over 500 years. Lunas, like 300. It is entirely possible that most heaven borne tend to only love one person and that's pretty much it. I don't why she brought it up but I guess it is a good theory.
