~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"You're actually Dice's new plaything then," Pirouletta spat out in an attempt to mock you, "Couped up in his room for the last few days, it should have occurred to me sooner." Her smile was smug. You had been doing fine with playful banter till this point. That comment just seemed to trigger you. To call you a plaything not only once but twice. The nerve of her.

"I'm nobody's plaything," You hissed, venom in your voice. Your calm demeanour sunk away in a split second, your head tilting, fists curling into balls. They felt unusually warm... almost scolding hot. Your eyes shot daggers at Pirouletta. It wasn't like you were against people thinking you and Dice might be an item, but you despised the idea of being an object. Pirouletta seemed to understand that she had crossed some boundary, taking a cautionary step back.

"Take it easy Hun," Wheezy coaxed, making effort to not patronise you.

"Certainly not, Pirouletta," Dice chuckled in a good-natured way, trying to ease the tension in the room. "I wouldn't disrespect dear (Y/N) in that way." You took a deep breathe, making an attempt to calm yourself down. Your hands seemed to cool down as well which confused you slightly. There were better ways to spite her than to let your anger loose... you smiled sweetly.

"Sorry to disappoint, but I'm not that type of girl," You smirked to her as she scoffed adverting her gaze. With both Wheezy and Dice on your side, you felt that you had won your little exchange.

Didn't mean you weren't going to rub salt in the wound though.

"So, what's the plan for today, Sir?" You questioned, turning your attention to Dice, setting your coffee down on the table.

"You'll just have to wait and see darlin'," He teased, offering you his arm with a coy smile tugging at his lips. You liked to think that he definitely understood what you were trying to do. "Shall we be off?" You nodded taking his offer, gripping to him.

"Alright, I'll talk to you later, Wheezy!" you gave him a wave as Dice lead you out, only giving Pirouletta a slight nod to acknowledge her presence.

The moment you were out of the breakroom, you started to speak, "Apologies for that, I didn't mean to start a scene."

Dice raised his eyebrows at you, amusement filling his eyes. "You? Darlin', as far as I can see in was Pirouletta who started it. I'd be the last person to blame ya for defending yourself." He chuckled, as he lead you out the back door of the Casino, out to the forests that surrounding the Casino.

"You could at least tell me where exactly were going," You prodded, slinking your hand down his arm to instead hold his hand. It was considerably nicer feeling walking with Dice hand in hand through a forest, than it was being lead by hand through hell. This felt sweeter. More romantic. But if you were with the Devil in this exact situation- in the forest instead of hell- perhaps it would be just as romantic. You quickly pushed thoughts of the boss aside.

"Nowhere special darlin, I thought it would be nice to get you all to myself, enjoy your company... the forest seemed like a good place," He told you, squeezing your hand gently. You liked that. Just spending some time alone with Dice sounded wonderful.

"Sounds perfect," You beamed, and in no time you found yourself seated on some rocks by a lake. Myrrha and Cinnamomum trees surrounded the clearing you, and Dice ran his fingers through your hair, your legs pressed together. It was nice. It was quiet and peaceful.
