Conversations In Hell

Chapter 3

          A bang is heard as the front door is whooshed open by Marie Laveau with Fiona following not too far behind.

"And we are back", Fiona shouted walking straight to the kitchen and grabbing a bottle of bourbon on the shelf.

"Legba and his half baked cracked up ass is getting on my last nerves." Marie Laveau grunted falling limply on the sofa and sprawling her legs.

"I don't just deal with Legba, I have to deal with that lovesick axe fool", Fiona sighed walking straight to the bedroom with her drink in hand.

"I appreciate your sudden display affection", Niklaus voiced while smirking at Marie's annoyed groan he knew was for him.

"The only display youh will be seeing is a nelson hold. I might noht have magic, white devil, but I do know a thing or two", Marie Laveau responded with a snort and no intention of removing her legs from his lap.

"Ah, Marie, look at you. Skipping straight to sex. I'm impressed. You don't look like you'd be a fan of the nelson position", Niklaus grinned containing his laughter.

"I know what youh are doing pale demon. I wasn't born yesterday. I'm not gonna entertain you", Marie Laveau huffed, removing herself from sofa and standing up; slightly embarrassed considering she did happen to like the nelson position and not in wrestling. She made her way to the kitchen and decided she'd indulge in a few drinks herself, grabbing a bottle of bourbon from the shelf.

"Now, now, Marie. Relax. We're just bantering is all", Niklaus responded and watched her hips sway, chuckling a bit. Does she realize how provocative that is?

Marie Laveau made her way back to the sofa with two drinks in hand, passing one to Niklaus. "This isn't no peace offering. Just so you know", Marie Laveau mumbled.

"Regardless, I accept it either way. It's not as if you can poison me anymore", Niklaus grinned and took the glass of bourbon.

"That is where youh are wrong. I have my ways", Marie Laveau smirked and took a sip of the glass. Quit it. Get a grip, girl. This can turn wild real soon if this continues.

"Ah, pray to tell how those ways are effective here?" Niklaus glanced at Marie Laveau, intent on her response.

Noticing his change in mood from playful to being focused on her, Marie Laveau slightly shifted. The average person wouldn't notice her subtle move, but Niklaus sure did and he was determined to nudge her. After all, he always did like tampering with others.

I can tell. He wants to get a rouse out of me. Well too damn bad. He's not gonna get one out of me. I'm not letting him. Marie Laveau thought as she mentally scoffed, preparing her thoughts. "Ways that will sure to leave youh bewitched", she responed and glanced back at him for a long second. After a short pause, she stood up taking his empty glass and hers, walking over to the kitchen.

No doubt. Niklaus thought with a grin responding, "Hm. I'll be the judge of that, love."

Setting the glass cups in the sink and without thinking, Marie Laveau retorted, "As if I'd allow a pale demon to defile me."

Grinning from ear to ear, Niklaus countered, "Oh, I'm glad we're taking about the same thing here, love. I figured your "bewitching ways" was for the bedroom."

Fell right into the white devil's den. Shouda known. Scoffing, Marie laveau replied, "Hah, I'll have youh kn-"

"Good god! Is that what you two call bantering?" Fiona yawned loudly, stretching, and making her way to the bathroom. "If I didn't know any better, I would have thought you two were preparing to roll in the hay."

"Saved by the bell or in this case, a vile harpy", Niklaus smirked.

"Did I ruin something here? I'm sorry, I'm either confused or really bored", Fiona snorted and shrugged, walking back to the bedroom.

"No. But clearly, I am in need of some sleep", Marie Laveau laughed walking back to the living-room, so she can take the room on the right.

"Is that all you really need?" Niklaus smirked reaching the door before she did, with his vamp speed, and leaning against it.

"I'm not entertaining you", Marie Laveau scoffed, checking him out unconsciously, as she entered her room. "You may leave now white devil, good night."

"Indeed, good night. Don't dream too much about me", Niklaus responded, walking back to the living-room to watch TV.

With that out of the way, she closed the door, and prepared to sleep.
