Helluva Boss: ''Helluva Human Kid''

Ch.21 - Vortex, a Gentle Giant

THE NEXT MORNING...

As the pentagram sun rose in the sky, Loona and Balin were still asleep together in his spare bedroom, newly refurbished after yesterday's adventures to his home in the living world.

Balin then woke up as the light, looking up at the stars on his ceiling before looking to the sun shining through the window. He then looked to see it was shining down on Loona, who snoozed right next to him with a smile and her tail & arms wrapped around him.

Whenever Loona didn't have any slobber coming out of her mouth, she was actually a cute sleeper.

Smiling at her in gratitude for all the fun and love he had yesterday, Balin decided to get out of bed and start this one. But secretly, being the kind of person who wants to sleep in, Loona was a little awake herself and didn't want him leaving her embrace.

So when the boy tried to lift her tail off of him, she'd teasingly growl to make him freeze. Seeing the opportunity to have some fun, Balin kept lifting the tail up and down with every playful growl she'd give him, until he finally managed to break free from her grasp.

After all that, Loona although giggly was still tired, so Balin walked out of his new room to let her sleep in peace some more.

The boy then walked out to the living room to see the couch had turned into a sofa bed with little hooves sticking out from the end. He then tiptoed around to see the three imps sleeping together after their pizza party.

Blitzø snuggled a beer bottle in his arms and Millie had her tail coiled around Moxxie's waist, while the TV was still on, but it was buffering since Hell's broadcast day had ended.

Giggling at how cute they were in their sleep, Balin soon decided to rock them awake back and forth, starting with Millie.

"Aunty Millie? Millie?" he whispered to his favourite step-aunt with a nudge.

The tomboy imp soon woke up to see it was Balin waking her up. "Aww, good morning, chickpea." she gently caressed his cheek with her fingers. "So nice of you to visit me and Moxxie." she then yawned and bleeped her forked tongue out like a snake.

"Uhm, Aunty Millie?"

"Yeah?"

"You're in Loona's apartment."

Millie then widened her eyes awake and looked around the room now in fear, then saw Blitzø sleeping beside Moxxie.

"Blitzø! Hun! Wake up!" she shook them ecstatically with both hands.

Before long, the two woke up also shocked to see they still were in Loona's apartment after last night.

"Goddamn it, Moxxie!" yelled Blitzø quietly. "Didn't I tell you to wake me up after that Paw Patrol movie?!"

"I would have! If it wasn't garbage for me too!" his employee snapped back in a defensive whisper.

"Never you mind, let's go before she meats nice meat of us!" Millie lifted the two in her arms with her brute strength, before leaning down to Balin. "See ya at work, honey." she gently kissed his forehead before running out of the apartment with Blitzø and Moxxie.

Five minutes later...

Loona woke up on Balin's bed yawning in a downward dog pose and bearing her dagger-like fangs, when her ears perked up hearing high and low pitched giggles from the living room.

She came out in her usual clothing to see Balin playing with his teddy and the chicken plushy Via gave him.

"Oh Teddy, I'm so in love with you. I don't know how I can live without you."
