Crowley sped down the m25 at a 100 mph as Queen blasted loudly from his car radio. Normally he played one of his best of Queen albums, but today the radio station greeted him with yet more Queen. Crowley groaned in annoyance, and wished for something else, and his wish was granted. The radio began emitting a strange sound as the next song played. "Well this is new" Crowley smirked to himself. Crowley let the lyrics of this new song fill the air. The lyrics were interesting to say the least...

"𝑊𝑒'𝑟𝑒 𝑛𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟 𝑑𝑜𝑛𝑒 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑘𝑖𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒

Crowley let the song end, and then he switched off the radio. He sat in silence for a few minutes, and then switched the radio on once more.

" 𝐻𝑜𝑛𝑒𝑦 𝑦𝑜𝑢'𝑟𝑒 𝑓𝑎𝑚𝑖𝑙𝑖𝑎𝑟 𝑙𝑖𝑘𝑒 𝑚𝑦 𝑚𝑖𝑟𝑟𝑜𝑟 𝑦𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑠 𝑎𝑔𝑜

Crowley switch to another station, why were all these songs so strange?

" Okay!" Crowley threw his hands up in defeat" I get it Bently, you're trying to tell me I'm in love, but with who?" Crowley recalled the lyrics. It had to be someone who was hard to be with, someone who had been in his car, someone he had known for awhile, and finally someone who had watched his car catch on fire. There were three options and each of them felt, unlikely..
Crowley turned to the exit and made his way to Soho, maybe his friend could help him figure it out.

~~~~~~~~~
Crowley threw open the bookshop door which very obviously had its closed sign turned over. The owner who was absorbed in a rather large novel at the front desk, looked up in annoyance. He placed his small round glasses beside him and curtly said "We're clos--" but before he could finish he realized who the "intruder" was. "Crowley!!" he exclaimed and gave the sweetest smile in all of existence.

Crowley always thought that these smiles were too good for an entity such as himself, after all he was a demon. But him and Aziraphale were friends, so he allowed it.

"How are you dear boy!" the angel exclaimed.
"I'm fine, you?" the demon said cooly
"Marvelous" he smiled "Now that you're here."
Crowley nodded and straightened his lips in a half "smile". Aziraphale surely liked to exaggerate things. "Listen" Crowley stated, while leaning on a bookshelf, and pushing his shades further up his nose, "somethings up with my car radio, I think it's trying to tell me something."
He told the angel his theory.

"Three options huh" Aziraphale look at the demon "well let's here them."
'Two options actually" Crowley articulated, and made an elaborate hand gesture.
"Well?" the angel looked expectant.
"It's ethier Hastur, which I very verly unlikely because I despise him very much, or..." Crowley slipped off his shades, and walked to the the counter Aziraphale sat at, stared at him and breathed out softly, one word: "you".

Aziraphale's blue eye widened and stared straight into Crowley's yellow ones.
"Oh?" he said
"I could be wrong though, maybe s'nothing." Crowley said almost sadly.
The demon was turning on his heels and was about to walk out, when Aziraphale said something rather loudly "1941, the church, you saved my books"
"So?" Crowley spat "friends do such things"
"Listen here" the angel said crossly, his face bunching up, "I meant to say that's when it happened, or at least I realized it...."
"Realized what?"
"You very well know what!"
"No I don't" Crowley shouted. Before the demon could utter another word, Aziraphale leaped off the stool he was sitting on, and crossed the room striding. Crowley had never seen him do such a thing.
Crowley was even more astonished when Aziraphale grabbed the lapel of his jacket and slammed him against the wall.
"Don't make me say it" Aziraphale glared.
Crowley was to speechless to say anything, he also thought about the time he had mirrored this action at Tadfield Manor.
The Crowley spoke softly "I won't"
Crowley stared at Az's lips, and then he met his to them.
The angel's eyes went wide, and then he closed them. He reciprocated the action, and gave a small sigh of content. After nearly five minutes of snogging Aziraphale asked, "How long"
To which Crowley responded with ""You had me at" I gave it away.""

"All this time" the angel scowled "we are such idiots"
"Suppose so" Crowley breathed.
Aziraphale then smiled "I guess what Uriel said is true"
Crowley lifted an eyebrow, his eyes narrowing at the mention of a "bad angel"
Aziraphale continued but noticed the apprehension.
"You are my boyfriend in the dark sunglasses" Aziraphale paused the said "Unless you don't want to be."
Crowley rolled his eyes and said "And waste 6000-f-ing years pinning after you, I think not."
Aziraphale frowned "So no?"
"I meant yes, you bloodly idiot."
"Okay!" Aziraphale grinned, and pitched one of Crowley's cheeks. "let's go for a drive, maybe you can find those songs that inspired you."
"I suppose so" Crowley grinned.
He picked up his angel bridle style, and went through the front door.
His sunglasses still lay on the bookshelf, but he didn't care, he didn't have to hide the emotion in his eyes from Aziraphale any longer.
