Not All Girls Cry

Chapter 9

"Are you guys ready?" Ella asked Patty and Rue.

"Got the stuff." Rue said and handed each girl a can of paint and a brush.

They tiptoes down the stairs and dipped their brushes into the cans. Then they took the brushes across the wall. After about an hour or so they tiptoes back up stairs after ditching the pain cans in a back ally.

"Ahhh!" The girls woke up to

"What is it?" Ella asked running downstairs with the girls behind her.

"You did this!" Dante said pointing to each girl.

"Why I am ever so hurt that you would think such a thing-" She said with her hand over her heart, then became laughing when she saw Dante's face.

"Rue that wasn't part of the plan." Ella said. "But it is funny." She finished.

"Thanks. Had to give it my own little touch." Rue replied.

All three of the girls had painted Dante's entire office purple, and Rue had given both the boys marker mustaches."

Someone then knocks at the door and walks in. It was a middle aged woman who looked like the older version of Patty. She looks around and sees Patty.

"There you are!" She gives Patty a hug. "I knew you were here!"

Before Patty could reply, she took her hand leaving through the door. Rue points at the door when they left. "Who was that?"

"Patty's mother." Dante answers and picks up a porn magazine. Ella takes it out of his hands.

"Read something else!"

Dante smirks an leans close to her face. "Maybe I should read you in bed."

"Why not?" Ella says with a shrug of her shoulders and walks up stairs. All three of them gawking at her. "Are you coming or not?" She asks Dante.

He nods his head and follows her upstairs.

"Sit." She says pointing at a chair in the room. She grabs the rope from her bag and ties him up,

Dante gives her a weird look. "Trust me, you will have fun. I know I will." She said with a smirk.

"So you like it that way." He states.

"I sure do." She says and gags Dante. "Have fun now." She says and runs out of the room.

She runs downstairs laughing. "You tied him up, didn't you?" Rue asks.

"You know me to well. Do you know how hard it was to not laugh. I can't believe he actually thought I would." Ella replies wiping away some tears.

Nero cracks up. "That was hilarious! I really want to see his face when you did that!"

Ella smirks as she takes out her phone. "JUST DID!"

Rue looks at it and laughs like crazy. Both her and Nero hold on to each other still laughing. Both trying to make themselves not fall. Ella checks the time. "Hey, it's almost noon."

"ELLA!" Dante yells upstairs.

BANG! The door to Dante's room smashes open and Dante stomps down the stairs with the chair still tied to him. "Damn he got the gag off." Ella pouts and then recovers. "Aren't you half demon?

You could of ripped the ropes to get out." Rue said. "It would be if funny if I wrote "Idiot" on your forehead!" Nero laughed at her would-be-soon prank. Dante glares at her.

"Shouldn't you be on your date with that doll creeper?" He asks making kiddy faces.

"Shit! I need to get there!" Rue says and grabs her black cape and going out in the sun. Dante rips the ropes and rubs the marks of it away.

"Why'd she bring her cape? Is she a vampire or something?"

"No, she just doesn't like the sun." Ella said.

Rue runs down the streets until she reaches the doll store. As she walks in she bumps into a girl in a yellow waitress outfit. Her brown hair braided to the side and her green eyes looked up at Rue in awe. Rue lifts her eyebrow up. "May I help you?"

She looks down at where the name tag is. "Penelope?"

"Oh!" Penelope said and then laughs awkwardly. "It's just you look like my doll I bought. It's called

'Midnight Rue'. See?" she lifts up a doll that exactly like her and wearing the same outfit that she is wearing. "What's your name?" Penelope asks smiling.

"Rue." Rue walks away and reaches the counter. "Lucifer~?" Rue smiles as he walks out holding a tamplet.

"Comming." He says.

Rue nods and looks back at Penenlope."The names Rue"
