Continuation of the Alastor radio station backstory ???? A witchy themed love story, with each chapter symbolizing a Tarot card from the major arcana.?
The story's first p...
Alastor bends down so his face is directly in front of yours. "You'll be sleeping in my bed tonight, darling." You make a face and turn around "I think I rather just go home actually-"
Not letting you get away so easily he teleports right in front of you with a huge grin "I meant, that it will be I who is sleeping on the couch. No need to be so dramatic, sweetheart; cut me some slack, will you?"
Still putting up a bit of a fight to sleep on the couch, you eventually give up and get comfy in his bed. He intentionally did not change the bed covers, so you will be surrounded by his scent. He had to play it smart since you were so damn stubborn, not letting him have some fun.
Wishing you a good night, he closes the bedroom door silently - you were so tired you practically fell asleep right away.
Just to be safe Alastor waited a couple more minutes before he melted back into his bedroom as a shadow, looking over your sleeping form.
Adults usually lack the innocence and cuteness while asleep, not the way children become a thousand times more bearable. But you were alright, even with your lips slightly parted, you looked very peaceful and angelic. Alastor usually didn't like corny things like this, watching the woman he fancies sleep, but he had nothing better to do. And you do look just a little adorable, like a kitten.
Standing above you for a little while with a small smile. Eventually, he got a bit tired himself and changed into his flannel pants and shirt combo he preferred to rest in and silently climbed into the bed next to you. His eyes fixed on you, listening to your soft breaths and the occasional small sound you make in your sleep. He's acutely aware of how vulnerable you are, how human you still are in this place filled with sinners and demons.
Not really in the mood to sleep he just lay against the headboard reading in the dark. One of the perks of being a demon, he could see in the dark like it was daylight with no problem.
You stir a little when it's almost dawn, and he watches you smiling, making the book disappear. "Are you awake darlin'?"
Opening your eyes wide you just stare into each other's eyes for a few moments, none of you moving.
"ALASTOR! WHY ARE YOU IN HERE?!"

Angrily you throw your pillow at him, which he dodges with ease, smiling at you widely. "I simply needed some company dearest, don't be mad now." He lays down on the bed with his stomach down, kicking his legs "So what were you dreamin' about?"
You groan angrily pulling the blanket on your face "See, this is EXACTLY why I didn't want to stay over. You always pull some unholy crap like this..."
Alastor chuckles, leaning right above your face, which you are still hiding under the sheets.
"Oh it is a surprise to me even, you make me want to do things I never thought I would be craving down here." He says in a sweet tone, moving closer to you as you peak out from below the sheet.
