The devil [1] (Lumity/the owl house Fanfiction)

Amity's POV;

We stood by a river.

It was beautiful.

Especially over the night sky.

"It's beautiful..." I pondered before my eyes were taken off of the skies when she placed a hand on my chin and turned my gaze over to her.

How can she still keep up with that charming smirk even until now..?

"You're beautiful." She said.

I flushed and began stammering when I fumbled my hands around.

I don't know why but all I could do was panic at that moment.

We were minors that were outside in the open forest.

She chuckled which caught me off guard.

It's so cute...

"Miss. Blight." She began.

I smiled and placed a hand on her mouth, catching her in surprise.

"Please... Amity is fine." I said.

She stared at me in calm silence before smirking toothily at me and giving my knuckles a quick peck.

I gulped, keeping myself from panicking too much than last time.

"Amity." She said.

I hummed.

"Would you... Become my fiancée?"

"Eh?"

I was... A little caught off guard by the question.

"W... What?" I muttered.

She hummed before saying, "I can take no as an answer if that's your answer."

I jumped.

"No, no, no!! I just..!"

She stood in wait for my answer.

"You just caught me a little off guard that's all! I... I didn't expect you to ask that too... Early... Or uhm, quickly and all!" I stammered out.

She hummed again before saying, "I'll give you time to spare, but for now, would you care for one last dance in this fine evening?"

I blushed a bit when she offered a hand towards me.

I smiled before taking it.

We just dance slowly by the river, taking in the soothing noise of running water as we let the moonlight cast over us for lighting.

It was nice.

It was calm.

And it was lovely.

After a while, we sat down by a log, I didn't care if my dress gets a tad dirty while we sit and talk.

Well, it was mostly me doing the talks with her listening intently at me.

"So that's what I said... If I can't beat them, you join them." I finished.

"That's intriguing." She said.

I chuckled before saying, "not as intriguing as you."

Wait! Did I just say that!?

"I... I mean! I..! I uhh..." I began stammering, flushed red.

She chuckled before hushing me with a finger on the lips.

"It's alright... Amity." She said.

I meekly laughed as I nodded.

"So... Uhm... What do you do for fun?" I asked after a quick while of silence.

She hummed, finally turning her gaze over to the river, she stared at it before staring up at the dark sky.

I blinked for a moment before she smiled, she smiled this time and didn't do a smirk.

"I..." She began before we both heard a shout to turn around.

There was light coming from a lantern.

Someone was coming closer.

"Farewell, Amity."

I perked up when she said that.

She was leaving when I saw that her back was turned.

"Wait!! I! My answer is a yes!!" I said.

I made her pause in her steps as we both heard a yell from one of the guards with running coming at us.

She turned once more around towards me and smiled warmly.

"From this night on forwarding, I will meet you day to day and night to night." She said before turning back around and running away.
