A Deal Worth A Lifetime [ Alastor x Reader ]

Chapter 12: For You, The World

Fluffy white flakes fell from grey skies. Smiling at the bustling streets below, memories of yesterday's events still vibrant in your mind. If you could, you would relive yesterday forever. In a few days, you'd be heading to St. Lucia for your honeymoon. Hearing a yawn you turned to see Alastor finally waking up.

"To think, I thought you hugged a lot before." Brushing unruly brown locks away from his face, reaching for his glasses on the nightstand.

"I can't help it, you're just so warm," giving you an estranged look before getting out of the bed, "I also wanna go for a walk." Playing with the rings on your finger, and giving him a sheepish smile. His reaction after getting off of the train last week made you remember he wasn't as ready for the northern weather as you had expected. It's not like you had gone to Canada, he was fine.

"It's freezing out there and you want to go for a walk?"

"It's 20 degrees, it's perfect for a walk," getting no response you stood taking your jacket from the chair, "I'll go by myself since you're so bitter about it." Slipping your jacket on and heading for the door, only to be picked up and spun around getting set down between Alastor and your current exit.

"You drive a hard bargain you know that," sitting on the mattress you watched as he entered the bathroom, "I'll be two seconds."

"If you say so." Playing with the buttons on your coat, awaiting his return. Slipping your gloves on and smiling as you stood, it had certainly taken him more than two seconds. Fixing his bowtie as soon as he came out, grabbing his coat from the closet and shoving it in his arms.

"You really want to go for this walk, don't you?" Shrugging the coat over his shoulders as you were pulling on his arm to guide him to the door.

"Yes, I haven't seen the snow since I arrived in Louisianna last year, we are going." He simply hummed, following you through the halls.

"Of course my darling wife." Placing a kiss on your gloved hand you couldn't help but feel your face flush. Not saying anything after and just walking in silence. It's not that you wanted to say nothing, you just couldn't think of something.

Stepping into the elevator and waiting for the doors to close, motioning for him to come closer. He bent slightly at the waist giving you enough to work with. Your lips found his just as quickly as they left. The elevator coming to a stop just as he was about to pull you in for another.

It had opened to reveal your brother accompanied by Mimzy. Your brother didn't have a room on this floor so why was he here? The two stopped whatever conversation they were having as soon as they spotted you, joining you two in the elevator.

"Mim bridesmaids have rooms on this floor, but correct me if I'm wrong but groomsmen were on a different floor." The silence had been broken, the shock on both of their faces priceless. You had your suspicions and it seemed like you were right. Mimzy glanced between you and Alastor, a smile appearing on her face.

"Y'know Y/n, correct me if I'm wrong but why Al is wearing lipstick," it was your turn to freeze, "kissing in an elevator, pretty scandalous if ya ask me." The elevator opened and Mimzy pulled you out faster than you could comprehend.
