(Vaggie's POV)

Y/n seems great! I think we'll get along well! I really hope she doesn't get caught up with alastor. That guy is full of shit. I know it. EVERYTHING about him doesn't sit right. ugh I HATE HIM. That strawberry, backstabbing, son of a bitch.

Oh shit.

He's fucking approaching her. Get away from him, y/n!!!!

(Your POV)

"Speak of the devil!" Charlie exclaimed as alastor, who had just been a shadow, swerved to stand by me with his cheery smile pasted across his face.

"Indeed! What a coincidence, Charlie, I must say! Welcome! You must be y/n, pleasure to be meeting you, darling!" He said while grabbing my hand, twirled me around and suddenly released me from his grasp, which sent me spinning across the room as if we had just ended a jazzy dance routine.

After regaining my balance and my breath, I felt a rush of excitement and joy!

"Why, thank you! Honestly, my good sir, the pleasure is all mine!" I remarked and ran to him with my arm outstretched.

I was actually hoping we would go back into a small dance. Which we did! I love this guy!

"Marvelous dancing, dear! Now you've me wonder, are you just as skilled in singing?"

Oh alastor is extremely charismatic, and just talking to him brings me such joy!

Playfully, I shot back, "Wouldn't you like to find out, strawberry boy!"

He put both hands on his chest like he'd been stabbed.

"Oh, such cruelty! Cute, of course, but oh so very cruel!"

I started blushing furiously and curtsied lightly,
"Why, thank you! You are quite the gentleman yourself!"

Damn my soul! Alastor was the perfect mix of sarcasm, drama, and sheer energy. I don't understand why everyone is so against him working at the hotel! If anything, he's making my experience in hell a shit times better.

We stared at each other for quite some time. I know this is the beginning of something beautiful.

"Ahem. I don't mean to interrupt here, but I think you should take y/n on the tour now. It's almost dark! You guys might want to get back before then if you want to avoid getting mugged." Interrupted Charlie.

"Charlie you are such a comedian! Nother were to happen to dear y/n while I'm there!" Chuckled Alastor.

"If anyone were to hurt her..." He started, as the room dimmed down

"I will dismember them very, very slowly" Alastor finished his sentence.

The room got extremely dark with glowing red symbols floating among the static. Alastors voice got extremely distorted with radio static. It was all kind of dark and demonic.

Kinda hot if you asked me.

Then I remember what Angel said about us possibly having similar powers.

With a little courage, I piped up to him,

"Hey Al?"

"Yes, darling?"

"What happened in your past life for you to end up here?"

Alastor went quiet for a moment. His smile dimmed down slightly too, then the corners of his mouth shot up higher than I've ever seen before.

"What a tale! I'd love to tell you all about myself and hear all about you! From what angel has told me, we seem to be extremely similar!"

Then angel stumbled towards us after 'overhearing' our conversation.

Angel yelled, while fan-girling over alastor, "AWWW! SMILES YOU DID LISTEN TO ME!"

Al made an annoyed expression and rolled his eyes to me. He turned to look at angel and stared into his soul.

"Don't do something you'll regret."

His eyes turned into dials, spinning haphazardly. And two antlers grew large on his head.

With a single shake, his eyes and antlers went back to normal, just in time to face me.

"Now where were we, darling? AH! Yes of course! The city tour!"

Before I could say anything, he grabbed my hand and pulled me out the door

"Oh okay bye gu-"

Alastor shut the door before I could complete my goodbyes.

Before we started walking, he yanked me forwards and I stumbled, which left me leaning on his chest. He wrapped his arms around me and gave me a soft hug

Then he whispered softly, "I want to show you the wonders of hell"

After he let me go, we pulled apart. I was blushing quite fiercely whilst alastors cheeks were a deep shade of red

After a few moments of silent staring, he straightened up and exclaimed happily once again,

"My dear, this is gonna be quite the adventure! Let's move!"

He started taking long strides forward leaving me trailing behind.

"Whatever you say dArLiNg!"

I stuck my tongue out to tease him. He could never say a sentence to me without throwing one pet name in!

He stopped in his tracks and stood there, frozen. I though he was going to kill me for a second!

But then, out of no where, he took my hand, spun me around out and steered me around so that I was now stood directly in front of him.

He grabbed my other hand and laced our fingers together. We were standing together, with our faces only a few inches apart. I felt ourselves edging closer and closer together and...




someone interrupted us.
