I grumble slightly and nuzzle my head further into Vox's chest as his phone begins to ring. He lets out a soft groan as he's woken up by his phone ringing, his free arm going to grab the device from the bedside table.
He lets it ring for another few seconds before finally answering it, his voice still gruff from sleep. "This better be important." I try to nuzzle into Vox more to block out the noise but I can hear Velvette through his phone even without the call being on speaker.
"I need you up here now." She snarls out. "Your little boy toy is wrecking my department while I'm trying to pull together a show and-" I roll my eyes as I hear Valentino start to yell, cutting off Velvette.
"Just get your ass here now." She barks out before yelling at Valentino and hanging up. Vox sighs, dragging a hand over his face as I sit up, a scowl already on my face. Vox looks over, sighing at my expression.
He's always known I don't like Valentino, even though he doesn't know the reason behind it. Most of the time Vox is the one breaking up fights between us while Velvette records everything.
"Come on, let's go deal with him." I say, annoyance laced in my tone. We share a look before I stand up from the bed, grabbing an outfit from one of the designated drawers he gave me in his room, changing quickly as he does the same.

As we walk into Velvette's studio our eyes look around to see her staff cleaning up a huge mess as she's eyeing different dresses trying to decide on which one to pick.
"Ugh. No. Unacceptable. You're fired." She glares at the designer holding out the dresses. "What is this? Wrist ruffles?! Is this 1750?! Burn it like the witches who wore it." She barks as the designer bows her head and immediately runs off.
Vox snakes his arm around my back as we walk up to the fuming overlord. "Velvette! I can see that you're busy so tell me, where'd our hot headed friend go?" Velvette turns around, her snarl lessening slightly as he looks at us.
"Up in his tower finally. Once I told him you were coming to calm him down he obliged with my demand to leave my goddamn studio." She huffed out, crossing her arms over her chest.
I growl lowly at the thought of going to Valentino's part of the tower. I think I'd rather die for a second time than go over there. "And what's got him so out of sorts?"
She shrugs as she calls Melissa over to get her dressed into an outfit. Most of Hell only sees her as one of Velvette's top models but the Vee's know they're dating. They're actually quite cute together, she somehow helps to mellow out Velvette. "Just go take care of that pissy moth."
The two of us say bye to both of them before starting to make our way over to Val's section. "You know you don't have to come with me to see him if you don't want to." His features soften slightly as he checks in with me.
A small smile forms on my lips from his concern. "I know. But I also want to know why he's in such a bratty mood. I need to see his little tantrum first-hand so I can use it against him in the future." I grin maliciously.
Vox shakes his head, but doesn't say anything as he pulls me closer into his side. "You're a menace doll. It makes the tower much livelier though so I can't complain too much." He chuckles.
─── ☾ ⋆*･ﾟ:⋆*･ﾟ ───
Once we enter Valentino's room I scowl at the amount of fog and red smoke inside as I try to swat some of it away from me. Val immediately sits up once his eyes focus on Vox's figure.
"Fucking finally." He says as he throws an empty cocktail glass at one of his workers. "Kitty, another drink." He barks out making my eyes immediately narrow, my scowl deepening.
