"So, what do you want to do today?"

"I don't know, what do you wanna do today?"

"I asked you first."

"But don't you have like Hell duties to tend to?"

"But that's for the demons to do. I'm the king; I do what I want, when I want."

"Wow, okay."

"Do you think differently of me?" He asked.

"What? No. I just thought that you torture souls on a daily basis."

"Nah, I only do that when the soul has done something really bad."

"Like what?"

"Like rape someone." He casually replied. "And they're the worst. Saying that the other party wanted it, like please, I know you're lying." He sighed. "And it makes me sick because sometimes, I look at the person that they raped, and I think of you. And I get even more mad because what if that happens to you? There literally is a special place in Hell just for them."

"But that's not gonna happen. I barely leave my house and I doubt anyone would think I'm worth the struggle."

"Humans nowadays don't look at face value. It's all about how much of an easy target you are. But you don't have to worry anymore, princess. No one's going to hurt you as long as I live."

"That's like forever."

"Then so be it." He smiled.

"You know, you're not so bad at all."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I mean I thought I was going to find a way out of here within like a few hours but honestly, being with you is kinda nice."

"Do you mean that, huh, princess?" He kissed her hand.

"Yeah."

He smiled like really big, so big you can see his heart swelling with love. But of course, that's not true because one, his heart doesn't even move, and two, he doesn't have blood. "I thought you would never like me."

"Who wouldn't like you? All these years in school they taught us how much of a bad person you are, but really, you're not bad at all and you're really sweet." She replied. But I can't be falling for the devil, she thought.

"Like I said, I'm only evil to those who deserve it."

"So can we visit Hell?"

"Absolutely not, princess!"

"But why not?!?! I wanna see all the souls getting tortured!"

"As far as I remember, all your past self weren't masochists. And besides, the sight of it alone would burn your eyes."

"I'll wear sunglasses."

"Princess! No. And that's final!"

"Why?? I see nothing wrong with it! And I wanna see all your little minions."

"Minions? You mean those little yellow beans? Yeah, they're never going to Hell."

"Why not?" She giggled.

"So annoying!"

"What? Then what does your minions look like?"

"You know those monsters that you think that hide under your bed or your inside your closet? You know scaly skin, dragon wings, sharp teeth, and all that?"

"Yeah? Are they like those?"

"Sort of, but just a little bit mutilated."

"That's disgusting."

"Exactly! Which is why you're never going down there."

"Okay, fine." She huffed.

"Princess, sweetie," He cooed. "It's for your own good. I don't want you to get hurt."

"So you're telling me, while I'm with you, you're never going down there?"

"Of course I'm going down there. Just not when you're awake. Like you said, I have Hell duties to tend to."

"Is Hell a busy place?"

"Yes. New souls come in every day."

"Like how many?"

"By the thousands. But not all of them stay. Some leave after purgatory, but some don't."

"Then who decides who stays in Hell and who ascends into Heaven?"

"God."

"And you don't have a say in it?"

"I have more important things to do than to judge on who stays and who don't."

"Seems like you're a busy man."

"I am." He proudly says. "But for you, I would drop anything."
