You smiled warmly at him as he joyfully danced around.
*gasp! " ___ look!"
Your eyes widened with amazement.
You let out a shaky breath of awe.
" I'm just like you now!"
You laughed and embraced him.
" Yeah.."

You sat quietly beside Vaggie, silently looking as Vaggie raged to the radio overlord about the crappy commercial that he made. You patted her shoulder as a reassurance as Charlie tried to calm her down.
Your phone rang as Angel dust rambled about how he was made to be exploited, or rather his body. You politely excused yourself, glancing at the number on the phone and then at Alastor as he stared back at you.
It was a brief eye contact, something that can be mistaken as just a coincident. But Husk caught up to it and felt somewhat uneasy in his gut.
Just as you left to answer the call, you also heard Charlie's ringtone. You caught the name of the caller. Dad. You almost let out a smile.
Lucifer huh? It's been quite a long while...
Your lord doesn't let you see him as much. And who are you to deny him?
You went back to your phone, answering it.
" Hello, baby cakes~"
" Lord Valentino, I hope you are doing well. Is there something you need?"
" Straight to the point, that's what I like about you~"
" I am glad that you are pleased with me. It's an honor to br accepted by the loyal partner of lord Vox. "
Behind the phone screen your smile turned coldly sarcastic, contrasting to your gently and genuine voice.
" Hmm~ that's what I like to hear. So about what I called you for, I need---"
You listened to his requests or rather orders whilst mindlessly twirling the burning pink mist on your fingers. They tangled in your fingers, swaying with every command of the motions.
It was obedient, compliant and mindless. Trapped. Just like how this stupid overlord will be. Not yet, but soon. You'll just haved to train him more.
Even little insects can be beneficial once your lord gets to sit on the throne.
You ended the call and went back to the main lobby where Charlie was singing and dancing. You blinked, watching her skip her way down the sinful streets of hell.
" What happened when I was gone?" you asked with a lost and confused tone.
" Oh don't worry about it babe. Just princess there getting called about meeting angels or sum shit." Angel replied to you with a shrug and then he went on to proceed his flirting with the angry cat demon.
" Angels?" you were ecstatic. Yet you voiced your tone as a confused one.
" Yeah.. Her dad told her that there was gonna be a meeting with the angels and she was allowed to be part of it in stead for him."Β Vaggie replied this time.
" Ah... I see." you said as you concealed a cold smile.
The only angels who would be willing to be on a meeting with a demon... are the once who new about the extermination.
And they wouldn't just send some lowly exterminator angel.
You covered half of your face to hide your grin. Oh.. Everything is going according to plan~
" M/n?" Vaggie's voice called out to you in concern.
You blinked, snapping out of your malicious thoughts.
" Hmm?"
" You alright?"
" Yes, of course. I just remembered something I should be doing. It's pretty important, you see. Would it be alright if I go out for a moment?"Β you said with your usual gentle and polite smile.
" Yeah, sure. You've done a lot more that anyone else anyways. " She said as she pointed a glare at the rest of the staff and the only patron.
Alastor just sent her a grin, Nifty a maniacal cackle, Husk a middle finger and Angel raised a brow in amusement.
You let out a breathly laugh and pat her in the back.
" Don't be too hard on them, I'm sure that they're doing the best they can." you smiled.
Vaggie just sighed and nodded her head.
" Well, I'm off!" you waved them goodbye as you ran out of the door.
Alastor's grin came out sharper and menacing for a moment.

" ARGH!! FUCK!! " Charlie yelled as she slammed the door of the meeting room with her fists. This was a failure. This man was not the angel she had expected to meet. She tought....
" Charlie?"
She gasped and turned around to see you standing just a few distance behind her. You had your usual gentle gaze that was currently filled with concern. Your warm smile subtly crooked from worry.
" M/n! What...what are you... doing here?" her voice cracked and she almost couldn't get out a full sentence. Hopelessness and defeat creeping up to her.
" I went on an errand and just happen to pass by after... I thought that I'd wait for you out here so we could walk home together. " you said with much warmth that she had expected from a mother. Not noticing that you emphasized the word home.
" I.." before Charlie could get out another word, though honestly she didn't feel like she could without breaking into tears.
You gave her another warm smile and reached out to her.
" Let's go home, Char."
Charlie looked up at your hand... And took it.
This was the first time in her whole life that someone reached out for her.
She was always the one who lent her hand to everyone she meets for their comfort, to help.
She was always the one to try to reach out for others. She reached out to Vaggie when they first met to help her. She reached out to Angel dust when he was full of sorrow. She had reached out to Husk, who she new was carrying heavy pain.
She had reached out for her father when he locked himself in that dark room..... She had reached our for her mother, as her back faced her, before she left.
No one has ever lend our their hand for her to take. Not her father, not Vaggie, not her mother... You.
Ever since you came... You were the main source of help and comfort she had other than her girlfriend.
You had volunteered to help the hotel to what it is now. You had comforted her just after Alastor came in, giving her your genuine support.
Some hidden times when she cried for her mother... You came to wipe her tears and give her warm hugs.
And the times when she wished that she could go back to when she was just a child, dreaming about demon's redemption with her mother and father right beside her happily laughing... You indulged with her fantasy and shared your own.
She wondered if it would be selfish.. To always go to you and ask for your comfort everytime she feels even a little bit down.
Charlie's eyes were clouded with her thoughts as you quietly guided her towards the hotel. You held her hand and shoulder as she leaned on you and let you guide her.
You had dragged away every demon's shadow if they get even 5 feet close.
Out of sight.....
Soft glow of golden flecks swirled between the fingers that held her hand.

" One day, I'm gonna build a wold just for us!"Β he exclaimed with joy.
" Hmm.. Really?"
" Yeah! A world where there's only happiness and freedom! Just for the two of us!"
" That sounds... amazing. I can't wait to live in that world. Though, right now, I think I'm already living in that world. " you said smiling.
" Well, we'll make this even better! "
You laughed at his enthusiasm. But really... nothing could be more better than this.
