Ineffable Husbands Oneshots

A Child!?

Crowley was sitting at his desk, bullshitting through some paperwork. He honestly wasn't paying much attention to anything. He jumped slightly hearing a knock at the door. Wondering who in the world was bothering him, he yanked open the door.

A small child giggled and ran into the room. She had fiery red hair and a familiar sword strapped on her back. She couldn't be more than 5.

Still in shock, Crowley stared at the child. "Uh. Hello young miss. Where did you come from?"

Before either of them said anything a familiar angel ran into the room. "Oh! Thank heaven!" Aziraphale grabbed the child and held her close. He finally noticed Crowley who was quite baffled. "Oh, hello Crowley."

"Uh, hi." Crowley awkwardly waved.

"I'm very sorry about her. She's just so full of energy and mischief." Azi apologized. "Sometimes she slips away."

"Who is she? Why are you watching her?" Crowley raised an eyebrow.

"Oh! This is my daughter, War." Azi stated.

"Um, excuse me?! What?" Crowley's jaw dropped.

"She's not biologically mine. She was created by my sword or something like that. It's all very confusing." Azi started mumbling explanations.

"What does upstairs have to say about this?" Crowley would be surprised if they were anything but angry.

"Nothing. They don't know." Azi muttered the last part.

"Hold up. You're telling me that your sword that was given away by you, disappeared for a few millennia, has now resurfaced and created war and not a single soul up there knows?" Crowley couldn't seem to wrap his head around it.

"Yeah. I actually have a meeting and I need someone to watch her." Azi gave Crowley puppy eyes as he said this.

"Well I guess I could watch her." Crowley had a bad feeling about this.

"Thank you so much. I'll be back by dinner. War, behave." and just like that he was gone, leaving War to run around the demon.

"I guess it's just you and me." He closed the door and turned toward the spot where the child had just been. She was gone. "Oh shit."
