[Angelic Devil] || Johnny

It all started Halloween night. You and your friends were getting ready for the biggest party in town, "Heaven and Hell On Earth." Everyone knew about this party and you would be stupid not to go to this one time event. To get in, you would either dress as an angel or the devil and that would determine what part of the dance floor you'll be in. One half the group dressed as angels and the other half as devils. It was common for you to dress as a devil, so you switched it up to be an angel this year.

The queue to get in was wrapped around the corner but since your group had tickets, you got to skip the line and go in. Once you stepped inside, your friend group split to go to your designated areas. There's an even split down the middle of the large dance floor. Everyone is dancing and mingling in their allotted space, generally having a great time.

As you got deeper into the crowd, you couldn't help but notice a tall figure in the devil section. You were intrigued by his red velvet suit and black dress shirt. He must have felt your eyes on him because he turned his head, instantly making eye contact. He moves through the crowd as well, meeting you halfway. Since you can't cross the line, you talk to each other from your respected areas.

"Hello! I couldn't help but notice your suit. It's really nice."

"Thank you. Your costume is cute."

"Thanks."

You glance at your devil bearing friends only to see them watching you interact with this stranger.

"I'm ___." You extend your hand to him, waiting for him to shake it.

"I'm Lucifier, but you can call me Johnny." He shakes your hand and brings your hand to his lips, leaving a soft kiss.

"Lucifier huh? You're really committing to this devil theme."

"I guess you can say that."

"I've never seen you around before. Did you just move here?"

"No, I'm just...visiting."

The hesitation in his answer made you feel a bit uneasy but you didn't really have time to fully digest it because your friends were tugging you, insisting that they're tired and that they're ready to go home.

"You're ready to go home already?" You asked because it felt like you've been there for only an hour or less.

"Yes, this party took all our energy."

"But-"

"Say goodbye to the pretty stranger and let's go."

"Ugh, fine. Wait for me outside."

You watched your friends leave the dance floor, letting you give a proper goodbye to Johnny, or um, Lucifier.

"I'm sorry this has to be cut short. Hopefully you will visit soon so I can see you again."

"Trust me, you'll see me sooner than you think."

You were about to ask for his number, but of course, your cranky friends cut you short. They didn't actually go outside, but they dragged you away. You quickly waved at Johnny, mouthing "I'm sorry." Johnny smiled and waved back. Once you all made it out, you questioned them, feeling like they're not fully telling you the truth.

"You guys never want to leave a party so early. What's the deal?

"As pretty as that stranger was, he gave us a bad vibe."

"Bad vibe in what way?"

Your friends look amongst themselves, trying to find the words. One of them speaks up, saying, "It was a gut feeling you know."
