As Above So Below

A Break For A Date

The first thing he felt around him was cold smooth wood. Where was he? He could hear muffled voices. Not loud enough to decipher the words, but he could tell they were there. Though one sentence made it through. 

"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!" Augustine had little time to react before light approached him. A harsh slash to his neck as he dropped onto the floor over a silk white dress. In moments there was loud screaming from a woman as his eyes looked up to see a woman with black hair dressed in wedding attire. 

When he blinked he was in a void. Augustine was able to move his body again. Though this time he was in his true form. He continued to look around. His heart was pounding as he continued to move around in circles. Goosebumps trailed up his arms, and the only sound outside of his heart was his footsteps. That's when someone spoke. 

"Watch out." A male whispered echoing off of the wall. Yet before he could do anything a large gray hand came for him. Augustine let out a loud gasp as he shot up. He brought a hand over to his heart. Feeling it over his hand and his neck. He huffed his breaths out before eventually calming down. He let out one final breath before flopping back down into the sweat filled mattress. 

He was hoping for no weird dreams. Though that was more of a nightmare. And a weirder one at that. Who the heck was that woman? And who was speaking? It was too old to be Winnie. So who was it? Augustine did not have time to focus on it. It didn't matter. He turned over and looked at his alarm clock. It was far too early. Especially for him. He knew he and Winnie agreed to not see each other until later. Though he had some nerves about what they were doing. Though he was confident they could pull it off. Maybe. 

He spent most of the day looking through his closet. Sure it wasn't going to be anything fancy, or anything crazy, but still he wanted to look nice. Though most of his clothes were plain colored t shirts, and jeans. Though there was that one outfit Amiel made him. It felt a bit too fancy, but maybe he could work something out with it. At least the slacks. They were made from a nice smooth black fabric. Cool to the touch yet still rather warm. 

Next up was a shirt. He decided to stick with a light blue polo. Though he was obviously not going anywhere without his orange windbreaker. Lastly he decided to settle for a pair of black converse. Of course he also had created a full explosion in his room. 

Clothes strewn everywhere from him trying to pair out different outfits. Augustine let out a loud groan knowing this would take him about an hour to put it all away. He looked back and sure enough it was around time to start getting ready. Though before he could even start getting changed. 

"Hey Augustine we're home!" Rody shouted as he opened the door. 

"Oh hey Rody." Rody looked at the clothes on his bed then at Augustine then back at the clothes. Augustine felt a slight flush cover his face. Rody looked confused for a few more seconds before realization struck him. A knowing look crossed his face. 

"Don't spend the night." Rody said as he slowly inched away before appearing again. 

"And don't go to Lust." This time he was more serious than last time. Before slowly moving back and shutting the door. Augustine stood there for a few seconds. Processing what the heck happened, but that was the least of his worries. 

For now he went to the bathroom and changed into his nicer clothes. He took a deep breath in. He feared he would've had to sneak out. Though considering Rody already knew it made sense just to walk out the front door. Though as soon as he did he was meant with knowing stares from Vincent and Rody. 

"So who's the lucky person?" Rody asked with a teasing tone. Vincent flicked his shoulder playfully. Causing a chuckle from him. 

"Are you going to need any money?" Vincent asked. Augustine shook his head. Especially since it wasn't for Hell money. "
