Ramshackle's Angel

103

Inside the Scrap house, Lorelai and Stone slept in the same bed. Soon, the clock in the town square rung, waking Lorelai, who was still in her demon form, up. She stretched out before she crawled ontop of her boyfriend.

"Rise and shine, Stone!" She said before she shook a airhorn she had.

She then sounded it off, starting Stone awake as he lays back down. Lorelai giggled as she rolled to her side of the bed.

"Ugh, again with the horn?" He asked, turning onto his side and covering his head with a pillow.

"Don't blame me, blame how fucking fun they are!" She told him before blowing the horn again.

She then hopped out of bed and started reading from a list as Stone got up and drank his first bottle of rum for the day.

"Mmkay, so today as the co-founder of the Scrap house, you have a meeting with the hollow knights about teaching everyone how to fight, then you gotta host the safety meeting because what happened with Skipp with the angelic knife, and you, Lizzy, and Zane have a nooner with....Asmodeus" she told him.

"Seriously? What does he want?" Stone asked her.

"No clue. Oh! You know what I'm craving? Icecream!" Lorelai cheered.

"No! It's too early for icecream, you maniac!"

"Icecream time! Icecream time! Icecream time!!!"

They both laughed as they started getting ready for their day. Stone hummed as he put on his jacket and necklace as Lorelai looked at a newspaper one of the twins left at their door. Soon, she spotted a article that read-

"Aville Stone wins top alcamest award"

She quickly crumbled it up then proceeded to set it on fire. Stone turned to look at her, but the cambion angel only waves, making him smile. He then went to grab a cigarette only to find that they ran out.

"Yeah, I know, I can pick some up while i'm out today" Lorelai told him.

"About that. You're still going down there without anybody else?" He asked.

"Well, you have a packed day today...and I know that you're not big on the whole hell thing, so-"

"It's the greed ring. One of the city's is literally called "Ransom" Stone pointed out.

"Ah, you worry to much. I'm not afraid of a fight. Besides, I'm slippery" she told him, trying to reassure him.

"I mean, only after I-" he started when Lorelai turned to him, holding her outfit for the day.

"What?"

"What?"

After that, a moment or two of pure awkwardness and silence came over them.

"C'mon, Stone. I can be on my own for one day!" Lorelai told him, breaking the silence between them.

"But Xander told me that you haven't been to the greed ring before."

"Yeah, I guess. But it's not like I'm gonna stick around. I just gotta get a few more book for my brother and healing supplies for Skipp's hand."

Stone scratched the back of his neck.

"I can ask Vinnie or Ditch to go with you" he told her.

"Ah! I can handle it! Come on, Stormcloud. Pweeeesee?" Lorelai asked, giving him the cutest puppy eyes ever as her ears folded backwards.

Stone laughed before he leaned down to her.

"Well, you know I can't resist a face that cute" he told her.

"Mhm. That's why I used it" she replied as she booped his nose before her knees start to go weak from Stone playing with her tail.

"Just try to stay out of trouble, My light" he told her.

"Ah, stop it!" She said, pushing him away playfully.

"Noooo~!"

Stone picked Lorelai up in a tight squeeze, both laughing. Suddenly, one of the scrap house's worker's walked in carrying in a stack of boxes.

"Boss, I have the canned goods you asked fo-" she cuts herself off when she saw Stone pinning Lorelai against the wall, both staring at her with wide eyes.

The worker set the boxes down and walked out of the room, staring oddly at the two as she shut the door.

"Whew, that was close, huh?"

Stone sighed as he let her go.

"Just come back once you got everything. And keep your messager crystal on you" he told her.

"Got it right here" she said, showing him her red messager crystal before continuing. "Don't worry, I'll be super lowkey. Nobody will notice me."

She smiled as she went to change as Stone still looked worried.
