His lovely demon belle

CHAPTER 21: Dinner fit for demons

Hello! Author here, I do apologize for the odd numbering on my chapters, I'm unsure why it's done this, but it won't let me change them :(.  so I'm very sorry if it's confusing.

You and Alastor head to a nearby restaurant that seemed very nice. It was called "Le Bernardin". "What an odd name.." you thought to yourself as you walked into a small line. Everyone in the restaurant was dressed very nicely, so you and Alastor fit in very well. After a few minutes you were at the front of the line, yet there was still a very long line behind you.

 Alastor nudges your arm, and you instantly turn to him in confusion. "What?" you say a bit annoyed. He nods his head in the direction of the lady in front of you. You look to her in confusion, The lady says "Good evening, I'm Jennifer, I'll be waiting on you tonight, would you like me to take your scarf?" 

Your eyes widen, and an awkward smile appears on your face out of embarrassment, "O-Oh, no thank you, I'm ok-"  Jennifer turns to Alastor and reaches her arms out towards him. Alastor nods and hands her his coat. "I will get this back, Correct?" says Alastor jokingly. "Of course sir, right this way" she says while chuckling. She leads you to a table near a big open window, it only had two seats, and was lit with a single candle. Alastor pulls out a chair and motions you to sit, once your in the seat, he scoots you in, and sits in the chair on the opposite of you. 

You grabbed the menu that was laid in front of you, and scan through the listed items. You didn't know what any of them were, they had weird confusing names. Although you could at least tell that it mainly consisted of seafood and wine. Alastor notices your confused look, and lowers the menu from your face. "Do you like Alfreado?' he asks calmly. You nod your head in response. "Alright, then I'll order you the Shrimp Alfreado pasta" You smile and giggle softly. He sticks his tounge out at you and chuckles in response. 

"So, what are you getting?" you ask after taking a sip of the champagne you ordered. "Hm, I think I'll go for the Salmon Linguine, looks good" Says Alastor while looking deeply into the menu. "Sounds good" you say admiring Alastors sharp features. He really was a handsome man, even in his demon form. Since you were already on the subject, you start to thing about your demon form, or why you didn't have one. You wonder if there was a reason to you not having one, the only demon in history to not have a demon form. You felt as though you had been cheated, sure, you are a demon in hell, but it's not like your the worst one down there, by far to say the least. 

You finally snap back into reality due to the waitress asking for your order. Like the gentlemen he is, Alastor kindly tells the waitress your order, along with his. "Is that all for tonight?" Says the waitress with a big fake smile. Alastor nods softly, and the waitress walks off, her shoes squeaking quietly the whole way. 

                                                                  20 minutes later

After a bit of small talk, the waitress finally comes back with yours and Alastors food. As she sat the plates, you could smell the food. It looked and smelled amazing. You don't hesitate, and take a bite. you look up to see Alastor staring at you. Embarrassed you look away and say "Don't you know it's rude to stare at a lady so intently while she's eating?". He laughs, ignoring your comment, "Sorry, I was just admiring how beautiful you look tonight, is that a crime?" he says smirking. You flush a bright red, not expecting that reply from him. You just continue to eat instead of replying. He laughs out loud, "Hah! You look so red!" You tell him to hush. "Aw, don't worry, as you know, red is my favorite color darling, and it suits you very well.." you start choking. "If says anything else I swear I'm going to explode.." you think to yourself. You must look like a glowing red Christmas light, since you were blushing so hard.  After about 30 minutes, you and Alastor finish up your food, and he gets ready to pay after finishing his red wine. You get up and leave, leftovers in hand, they were shaped into a tinfoil swan by the waitress.
