Chapter 15

Alastor's POV

I've been working in the Happy Hotel for a while and has been staying in for work's sake that I don't have to either walk or take a ride from home to here and vice versa everyday.

I've been away for perhaps a week or so that I have grown worried.

Y/n may be a strong demon and killed all of those demons from I believe yesterday but I can't help but feel bad and worried for leaving for too long without much of a word about where I work and for how long I will stay away!

She must've been lonely with no one to entertain her! Maybe I could ask the princess for a day off? The Hotel isn't as busy anyway and there's already a lot of people working here.

I want to spend some time with my little fawn!

I went over to Husk avoiding the spider to ask for the princess's whereabouts.

"Eh, I don't know. Probably with the moth off to advertize somewhere. Why?" He asked as he took a swig of his drink.

"I see. I simply just wish to ask for a day off to spend time with a friend. I left them not too long ago and I'm a little worried for I've never left the little fawn for too long." I explained.

"Well, if that's the case then go and look for Charlie already. I don't know where she is so maybe ask Ni— well speak of the devil." He said just as I heard Charlie's voice coming in from around the corner as she talk with her moth partner.

"Excuse me dear, but may I have a moment with you?" I asked as I went to lightly tap her on the shoulder.

"Yes? What is it?" She asked curiously with her friend suspiciously glaring down at me which I easily shrugged off as I asked the princess with a smile.

"Would you mind if I ask for a day off of work? I merely wanted to check on somebody."

"And why is that? What are you planning?" Vaggie glared.

"Why I just wanted to spend some time with a friend of mine. I haven't checked on her for a while and I really haven't told her where I work nor did I leave her for too long." I explained calmly.

"Oh? Her?" Charlie smirked playfully making me chuckle.

"Dear don't take it that way. I have no romantic feelings towards my little fawn and she does the same. She's like... Let's see.. A little sister perhaps." I grinned fondly.

"Hmph, I'm surprised you haven't killed her." Vaggie said earning a small scolding from Charlie as she looked at me apologetically.

"Excuse her, but of course! I'll give you a day off. I'd want to meet her someday" she said smiling.

"Oh you two would love each other." I chuckled and thanked her before leaving.

I stopped by in front of a shop as I went in to give her as a present.

I took her (F/s(favorite snack/sweets)) and went to go to another one as I got her some (F/f).

I started walking back to the forest when I saw something quickly flash.

I shrugged it off and continued towards her tree.

As I went to call out to her, something, or rather someone jumped down in front of me.

"HALT YOU LITTLE FUCKER!! NOW WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU AND WHAT ARE YOUR BUSINESS YOU LIL SHIT." She said loudly.

I tilted my head towards her unfazed by her sudden outburst.

"I should be asking you the same dear. Also, you've got quite a mouth for a lady." I chuckled amusedly.

"Ally?" I heard someone call and smelled the oh so familiar scent of flowers and the stream water.

I grinned as she quickly glided down her tree and I went to open my arms for her as she tackled me in a hug.

"Ohmygoshyou'rebackI'vemissedyouandImayormaynothaveeatenallofyourcookiesbythewaybutIstillkeptyourhousecleanandstuff!" She quickly rambled making me laugh as she got off me excitedly looking towards a confused demon as I looked at her with the same confusion.

"Oh! And I met this new demon by the way and made friends with her and she's basically roomies with me! Anywho, Iris, this is Alastor! Ally, this is Iris!" She giggled excitedly introducing me to the armless demon.

"Pleasure meeting you sweetheart!" I said as I went to shake her hand then remembered that she doesn't have arms and went to apologize but she stopped me with her chuckle and a hand shaking mine. What?

"SAME TO YOU DAPPER MAN." She grinned. I looked towards her hand to see where its connected to find it connected to her head. Huh. Very peculiar.

"WELL (Y/N/N(your nickname)), I'LL BE GOING NOW. YOU TOO ALASTOR! SEE YA FUCKERS!" She said before disappearing into the forest towards the city probably.

"Sorry for that. She's quite the spunky character." Y/n said rubbing the back of her head sheepishly.

"I can tell!" I chuckled making her giggle along.

"Latty didn't really like her staying with her so she basically had me take her in and I didn't mind." She grinned.

"I can certainly see why, they're basically the opposite of each other!" I exclaimed.

"Yeeeeaaa, also, what brings you here? I thought you were at your work.." I saw her smile falter a little and remembered the things I brought for her and gave it to the little fawn.

"I wanted to spend time with you is all! Plus, I believe I haven't told you where I work and I want you to be able to visit whenever you wanted. My boss is fine with it and she even wanted to meet you one day!" I told her making her already slightly glowing (E/c) eyes beam with excitement.

"I'd love to! Also thank you for the flower and the (F/s)!" She said.

"Well, do you want to do anything in particular dear?" I asked her.

"A lot of things!" She exclaimed happily.
