Bound (Hazbin Hotel x Male Reader)

Chapter 10

In the upper floors of the Hazbin Hotel is a room filled to the brim with books and random papers scattered all over the place, a few messy book shelves, a big closed window on the opposite side of the door with a desk infront of it and two chairs, one of which Charlie can be seen sitting on. 

"Aannd... Done!" Charlie's voice rang excitedly around the room as she raised from her office chair and brought her hands up holding a piece of paper. "Your officially a part of the hotel! Oh! You should probably have a room! Give me a minute." She went on to say, a big smile prominent on her face as she looks at (Y/N) and zooms around the office looking for a key. 

All the while, (Y/N) was just standing in front of the door next to Vaggie as both of them watched her go. Papers are flying around everywhere as she erratically went from one place to another, mumbling to herself every now and again about which room would be perfect.

Seeing her like this, (Y/N) couldn't help but smile. He never thought to find someone like this in hell of all places, much less the princess herself. Her positive way of looking at things was quite out of place in the dreary atmosphere of the underworld. Although at the same time, it made sense given her parents.

But also, he couldn't help but remember someone while looking at her. She was just so similar in how she goes about things that he couldn't stop the flood of memories from drowning out his surroundings. A feeling of yearning washing over him as his gaze follows Charlie.

Feeling a hand on his shoulders, (Y/N) was brought out of his thoughts as he looked to the source and found Vaggie looking at him worriedly. "You okay?" She asked, having seen him zone out. 

"Oh? Heh yeah sorry, im just... Remembering something." (Y/N) replied giving her a reassuring smile. "And also, i just haven't seen someone so filled with positivity here in hell before." He added, his gaze going back to Charlie.

Hearing this Vaggie could only chuckle slightly and give a small nod as she watches her girlfriend zoom around the room excitedly. "Honestly when i first found out i couldn't leave this place, i thought i was ganna suffer eternal damnation. But looking back, i was lucky, should i not have found either of you that day, perhaps things could've ended differently" Vaggie explained smiling as she looks to the sides slightly before gaining a curious expression.

"Actually im curious to ask how you got to hell in the first place? Are you a hellborn aswell?" Vaggie followed up, her gaze going towards (Y/N) and seeing his expression turn to slight sorrow before looking at her and giving a small smile.

"Well... Id rather not talk about it at the moment, honestly. But no, im not a hellborn, it's... Abit complicated." (Y/N) simply replied as he meets Vaggie's eyes, prompting her to nod quietly in understanding.

"That reminds me, may i ask you the same question?" (Y/N) followed breaking eye contact and looking forward.

This seemingly making Vaggie quickly tense up, her face slowly loosing color as she worriedly looked at (Y/N). Looking for any negative reactions, she felt confused seeing his calm demeanor, the small smile never leaving his face. 'perhaps it's not-' Vaggie thought but stopped when she heard him speak.

"I would imagine it isn't another apple incident, is it?" (Y/N) asked again, a chuckle escaping his lips as he casually spoke.

Vaggie's eyes immediately widen at this, unsure of what to do or say. But also, she was confused at how he's taking it all in. No anger or anything was present as if this was just a normal conversation.

"H-how did you figure it out?" Vaggie could only stutter not knowing at all what to do in her current situation. Her eyes darting towards Charlie, making sure that she's still busy going through keys to hear their conversation.
