I spent the rest of the day lounging around on the couch and surfing through channels on the TV. Dice left a bit after our conversation saying he had some work to do.
I give up on finding anything on the TV and roll off the couch. I walk over to one of the big windows lining the walls of the living room and look out. The sun has almost set completely.
"I wonder where Dice is." I think "I'm getting kind of hungry."
"Hello, how was your day Y/n?" Dice yells
I jump and whip around. I lose my balance and end up on my butt on the floor.
I hear Dice laughing, I scowl at him.
"I didn't hear you come in." I say
"Sorry Y/n" He says smiling "I didn't mean to startle you."
Dice walks over to me and reaches out his hand. I grab it and stand up.
"Busy day?" I ask
"It's always busy, you'll understand when you start working." He replies
"Wait... start working?" I ask
"Well did you expect to just lounge around my apartment forever?" Dice laughs
"No? What? How am I...?" I try to make sense of this and my brain just kind-of turns off
"Okay, I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that extreme stuttering was just a side-effect of what you have gone through the last few days. The Devil is going to come over soon and tell you his decision for where in the casino your new job will be." Dice replies
My brain is already seemingly at max capacity for craziness so I decide to just accept this and not think about it too much.
"Dice I'm coming in so you better be decent" Someone calls
"Ahh, speak of the Devil" Dice chuckles
"Haha, very funny Dice, remind me again why I didn't make you a comedian?" The Devil says sarcastically slamming the door open
"I think that was because of my excellent singing voice and outstanding managerial talents" Dice replied
The Devil rolls his eyes and redirects his attention to me.
"Y/n, you have become very interesting over the last few days so I have decided you need an equally interesting position" The Devil says and his face shifts into a smirk
"What are you thinking?" Dice asks
"Ohh, curious are we? Why are you so interested Dice?" The Devil asks
"I'm not" Dice spits
I shift uncomfortably causing the Devil to smirk at me.
"Since Y/n has seemingly gotten so... comfortable around you Dice I have decided to make her your.. assistant of sorts" The Devil says
Dice looks dumbfounded.
"I don't need an assistant. I get my work done perfectly fine" Dice protests
"You could have fooled me with all your complaining" The Devil replies
Dice puts his face in his hands and groans then looks over at me.
I don't even know what Dice does. I barely know him. He is literally some stranger who carried me back to his apartment, gave me breakfast and made me pass out twice. I have no idea what to do in a situation like this.
Dice notices my completely bewildered expression and sighs again.
"Y/n I need to talk to the Devil alone" He says
"Okay" I reply
Dice starts to walk over to me.
"What are you doing?" I ask
He doesn't reply.
He stops behind me and lifts up his hand.
I realize what he is doing.
"Oh for fuck's sake" I yell...
And I blackout.
