"Alastor?" My voice was only a whisper. "Yes, my dear?" I gulped and tried to find the right words. "Where were you for so long? I thought you would come back as soon as possible? Do you have any idea how long I've been waiting for you?" He looked at me really confused but before he said anything, Al noticed the different surroundings. "Y/N, my love? Where are we? This doesn't look like your house at all." I laughed sarcastically and sat back on the sofa. "That's because we aren't in my mom's house anymore. I moved into my own apartment." He was shocked and shifted his gaze back to me. Oh boy, he didn't like what he heard. Suddenly he walked up to me, taking my hand in his and brought it up to his face. Alastor inspected my fingers .. especially my ring finger. "A-And .... what is that?" His grip tightened around my hand as if he was trying to hold back from mentally pushing him further away. "Oh.. that's ... uhm .. my engagement ring. Mark and I uhm ... we are getting married, you know." His smile faded a bit but only for a split second. "Oh really!? Well ... m-my dear. Congratulations! I'm v-very h-h-ha-happy for you," he said smiling but one of his eyes was twitching. Yep. He didn't like it at all what I told him. "Look Alastor. I'm sorry that you had to find it out that way. I wanted to contact you but ... yeah you weren't available, obviously." He took a deep breath and placed his hands behind his back. "So, that means I've lost to that useless meat bag you call fiance right?" I sighed and slowly nodded. I better not start a fight about how rude he was when he called Mark a 'useless meat bag'. I wonder, what is he going to do next? "Hmmm....," he put one finger on his chin as if he was thinking  something. "What?" I asked irritated. That is not the reaction I expected. He's way to calm right now and I'd love to look inside his head at this moment. "Alastor? You okay?" He still scrutinized me and moved not even an inch. Okay, now I'm scared. Is he planning something?? "You see  Y/N. I don't quite believe you. I thing you only agreed to this engagement thing to surpress your - ..." I cut him off cause I didn't want to hear another of his his annoying but completely true explanations. "But, didn't you and my mom wanted me to marry him? I only do what you expect me to do. That's what the deal's about. Did you forget it already? Wow! Does the time run differently in hell? Or are these the first symptoms of your high age? Aww, poor old man," I chuckled and crossed my arms over my chest. Alastor gave me a slightly annoyed look. "Watch out, sweetheart. I'm still a demon. Don't underestimate me." I immediately stopped chuckling. Excuse me!? What's that supposed to mean?! "Look Al. I don't know what you're talking about. I love Mark and not you. Face it! You lost this time. Now, if you would go back to where you came fro-..." He shushed me with his hand which was covering my mouth. His grin wide as ever but his gaze was indescribable. "You know. I've never said something about 'love'. I said you have feelings for me. I didn't explicitly say 'you love me'." Oh .... damn it. That was my own stupidity and now he got me. I pushed his hand quickly away to defend myself. "I mean ... I didn't mean it that way. I've never said that either!" Alastor laughed and pulled me close to him. Oh my, I kind of get a déjà vu vibe. I fell silent and looked up at him. "Why are you laugh-..?" Without further ado he pressed his lips on mine.  Doesn't he have something to say, too? Something like 'I love you too'? Guess not. Well maybe someday .... be patient Y/N. I put my arms in his neck and he wrapped his around my waist. At least, I'm happy that everything is clear now but what am I going to say to Mark? 'Sorry, I can't marry you because I love a demon'? Yeah heck no I'm not gonna say that or they'll come and put me in the madhouse. But I can't be both, Mark's fiancée and Alastor's ... whatever I am to him. We need to figure this out or else I'm screwed. After some time passed, we parted and looked at each other, unfortunately, the moment was ruined when I heard the front door being unlocked. "Shit! That's Mark! He must have forget something. Quick, hide ... or leave! He can't see you here!" Alastor raised his eyebrows, putting his hands behind his back again. "My love, you know that you can throw him out now, don't you? You don't need him anymore." "Yeah sure but I can't do that right now! I will but now you have to leave!!" I panicked and pulled nervously at my hair. He sighed and vanished. Finally!! I have no idea, how I would explain that situation to Mark. Speaking of which, he just appeared in the doorway. "I just forgot my car ke- ... hey, are you alright? You look a little bit stressed out." He walked up to me and laid his hand on my cheek. "If something is bothering you, you can tell me. I wanna help." Now, you tell me how on earth could I break up with this sweetie?? It's impossible! I opened my mouth to say something but closed it immediately when nothing came out. No I can't say what Alastor want me to say to him. I need some time for that. "E-Everything's wonderful. Don't worry. I was just ... suprised you came back after only a few minutes." I smiled innocently at him. He snickered and gave me a quick kiss on the lips. "Yeah. I just need my car key. After that you'll be rid of me." I rolled my eyes and shook my head. "Don't say that. I don't want to get rid of you. Why would I?" "I know, I was only joking. Sorry! But now I have to go. I'll see you later♥" As soon as he left the living room, my fake smile faded and in the end I sighed. "You're sure you don't want to do it now? I think he should go forever instantly." Alastor put his finger on his chin. "May I take care of that part, if you don't want to do it? I'm an exper..-" "No!! Don't you dare lay one single finger on him! I'll do it in my way! So be a good boy and listen to what I say or else you'll get to know me from another side! Is.that.clear?" Al was truly surprised on how I talked with him but if I want him to listen, I need to be dead serious. "Yes, my love." Good, at least he plays by the rules. That's gonna be ... interesting. Yaaaay! "Am I allowed to speak?" Alastor asked. "Don't be ridiculous. Of course you are." I went to the kitchen to make something to eat, when I noticed he followed me. "What is it?" I murmured. He remained silent for a few seconds before he spoke. "How much time has passed?" "Why do you ask? Does the time, indeed, run differently in hell? Actually, I was just joking a few minutes ago." I raised my eyebrows. "Hm, well, you could say that. You see, darling, we don't have a specific time down there. Sure, we have morning, noon, afternoon, evening and night but we're stuck there for eternity, which means we don't really need a clock or something like that. We don't have calendars either cause - obviously - we don't need them." I nodded understanding. "Do you want some tea? Or maybe even eat something?" Alastor sat down on a chair at the table. "Tea sounds wonderful, love. I'd really love to eat something but I'm afraid you don't have that type of food at home." I put two cups and the teapot on the table. "Okay? And what food do you mean? I can buy it for next time." I took the chair next to him. "Uhm .... I'll tell you another time, dear. Now is not the right time for that." What the fuck is he talking about? It's just food. His eating habits can't be that bad, can they? And since when do you need a good timing for talking about food?! With raised brows, I poured some tea into the cups. "Anyways, back to your question. Well, it's uhm ... it's complicated. But you missed ... maybe ..... perhaps ... more than a .... uhm year?" I heard him choking on his tea and looked up at him. "Really? A whole year?" I nodded and took a sip of my drink. "What happened in those months?" While I stired my tea quietly, not knowing if I should tell him, Alastor laid one of his hands on my shoulder. "You can tell me. I'm a big boy, you know." I giggled and after another sigh, I told him everything. I told him about my move into my own apartment, about Mark and my two new friends, my new job and I also told him that I'm 21 now, just in case he forgot it. In the end he was shocked. "Well... that's quite a lot...," he whispered.

A/N: The last chapter before the 2K reads special and I hope you liked it. I'm not sure when I'll post the special chapter cause it'll be longer than the normal chapter length just like last time.
