You wake up, at first a little dazed and confused, but your mind quickly reminds you all that has happened. You died, your in hell now, you have been employed, and your boss is letting you crash here for a while. You get up quietly, and fold your blanket into a near square, then set it back down on the couch, under your pillow. You look over at the TV, to see what time it is.

7:28 am

"Huh, guess I may have woken up a little early." You think to yourself as you begin to stretch. You walk into the bathroom and splash a little water on your face to wake you up a bit faster. You then go grab your towel and take a quick shower. You then dry off and put the same clothes back on. When you get your first check, you know your getting a few more sets of clothes, and some basic necessities. The bathroom was simple, but attiquate. The clean white tile looks nice, in a way. Who knew that hell could actually be clean?

You swish a little water in your mouth, and make a mental note to get a toothbrush asap. Your stomach rumbles slightly, but you dont want to mooch off blitzø much. Afterall, its rude, and he is your boss. You step out of the bathroom feeling decent, and you reach into your pocket to grab your phone.

Only one issue.

It didnt come to hell with you.

"Damn." You mutter to yourself.

You hear a door open besides you, as Loona steps out. She looks both exhausted, and slightly aggravated.

"Mornin, your names Loona right?" You ask, just to make sure. After all, names were always a bit of a challenge for you.

"Yeah, mornin to you too." She responds, giving you a quick nod.

Having nothing better to do, you decide to sit back down on the couch, and chill out for a while. Afterall, you have some time to kill. A quick glance at the clock tells you its 7:48. You look over at the bookshelf, and decide what looks good enough to read. You see a few books that look like fiction, what looks like a book on firearms. A few books on knifes and hand to hand combat, and a single unopened book on first aid. The books on firearms and knives seem to be well used. Ypu take the book on first aid, and take off the plastic wrapping, so you can open it. Inside, you find some good information to know. Like how to slow bleeding effectively, what to do if someone was stabbed, shot with an arrow, best ways to cleanse a wound, etc. You feel an odd feeling that your being watched. Somthing in the back of your head is telling you to turn around, or be careful, so you look up at the turned off TV, and look in your reflection, to look behind you without it being obvious. You see Blitzø trying to sneak up on you from behind. No weapon in hands, but looks like hes trying to startle you, or catch you off guard.

"Morning Blitzø." You say kindly without turning to look at him.

"Aww, come on! What gave it away?" He asks, almost impressed you noticed.

"I tend to get Loonie with that all the time, how did you know?" He asks again, honestly intrested.

"Well, I thought I may have heard somthing, and looked at the TV to see you in the reflection." You explain nonchalantly.

You hear the shower door open, as Loona walks out of the shower. You glance at the clock again, to find it's been a few minutes. It's now 8:02

"Good morning Loonie!!" Blitzø says happily, going up to hug her.

"Hi." She responds, mostly uninterested. She looks kinda pathetic all wet. Ypu silently chuckle to yourself, she almost looks silly.

"What are you laughing about?" Loona snaps

"Nothing, just thought of somthing." You respond kindly. No need to annoy someone this early anyway.

Blitzø then walks into the shower, as Loona goes back into her room for a while. You just go back to silently reading. But after a minute or so, you hear what almost sounds like an attempt of singing. You look over and realize it's coming from the shower. The idea of a demon singing in the shower seems stupid, but kinda nice and funny at the same time. After a few more minutes of listening to Blitzøs singing and reading pass, loona opens her door and walks over to you.
