"Um… " not knowing what to say, clover moved away from the demon eyeing the door in front of him.( if I can run to the door the, then maybe I can get away) before he can think about that idea once more, his train of thought got interrupted.
" not so fast little man, usually I'll be down for a little bit of chasing but I can't risk you calling for help and getting other humans involved, that'll just cause way more trouble for me and the higher up from down below
" with reality settling in, clover broke down, falling down on the couch,
( why is this happening to me all of a sudden) with all the stress from what's been happening on his shoulders, clover started to sob loudly, praying under his breath for help.
Glancing at him acwardly, seeing and hearing this loud display, maverick felt somewhat uncomfortable " um… quit all that crying you're not going to die yet so I don't know why you're sobbing" hearing this clover tried to quiet down his crying believing that if he doesn't he'll be killed.
After a moment of uncomfortable silence, Amelia tries to break the silence. " Mr. Clover it won't be that bad, I'll protect you from papa and his friends if they're ever being mean to you!!"
*under her breath* " considering it's my fault"
Wiping his tears clover looks over to Amelia, (theirs not much I can do about this situation, since anything and everything I do can get me killed. I can't believe that such a evil thing can be a child,…. I can't… I won't believe that)
with a frown, clover sighed, obviously having a tired look on his face. (I don't know what to do. I guess it may be a good thing that the young one likes me) glancing at Amelia, he sees a worried and shamed filled look on her face, (no matter what, a child is a child)feeling bad, he gives her a slight smile for reassurance.
*Signing and then quietly yawning*
Getting up clover walks back to his bedroom with a grim look on his face, turning back he spoke to the demon across the room, avoiding eye contact" I'm to tired to think about the situation right now,"
* under his breath*
"and considering the fact that I wouldn't be able to process the situation if I wasn't"
"…if you're actually staying her tonight… then…can you please lock the door and turn off the lights,…there's also a guest room across the hall that you guys can stay in" closing the door and locking it,clover lays down on the bed, with troubled thoughts he tiredly goes to sleep {with a little to much effort}
~~~~~~~~~~~next morning ~~~~~~~~~~~
"Mr. Clover!!! Wake up!! I'm hungry" tiredly looking up at her, he sits up tiredly trying to get her to calm down. Eyeing the alarm next to him he sees the time
* 11:36 am*
"why…" slowly waking up, he starts to remember everything that happened last night, ( fuuuuck, there's a demon in the next room, how did I forget that!!! How did I forget something this important. )
Trying not to panic and think about his bad luck, he focuses on the demon child that's in front of him. Looking around his room, he questions the little girl " Amelia, where's your father ?" Pouting she answers "when I woke up, I told him that I was hungry, and he kicked me out of the room"
(Demon or not, what type of father kicks their child out, especially when they're asking for food) getting up, clover grabs his cross necklace and slides it over his head, picking up Amelia, he place's her on his hip and walks to the kitchen while cursing the demon in the other room's existence.
{maverick: *sneezes* it's to early for someone to be thinking about me}
Putting Amelia down on the counter he opens the fridge grabbing butter, eggs, and orange juice box, sausages, cheese and apples. He then goes into the cabinet, grabbing potatoes, bread and seasoning from the top cabinet, after getting all his ingredients set up, he Gives Amelia the juice box, telling her to talk to him about where she's from.
( if my life is going to be stuck in the hands of a unpredictable, homeless demon, then I might as well understand more about hell) looking up from the counter, she starts to blabber about everything and anything from back home.
" well, hell is wayyyy different from earth. back at home, it's kind of hot depending on where you're at, I live on the better side of hell since I'm not a sinner and because I'm born from their & my family's really really old. you know, you should really come see it, some of of the trees are red and even purple!, we-"
with Amelia yapping in the background, clover goes into deep thought. ( it seems that this is really reality, it feels so surreal having a demon-born child explaining hell while her father's sleeping in the other room) zoning out while cooking, he didn't hear the demon coming from out of the guest room.
" you know if you wanted to know more about us you could of just asked me" hearing this, clover jumped away, almost burning himself in the process.
Having fear and anxiety building up inside from being near this demon, he unconsciously clutches his cross necklace. Feeling the demons sinful eyes on him, clover hurries to finish cooking while praying and cursing under his breath , trying to ignore the demon that's eyeing him in the kitchen doorway. Looking at Amelia, he asks her to help him set up the plates for breakfast.
While fixing the plates for himself and his ^very unwanted^ guests, clover starts to think about his schedule.
(I need be at work by 3:20, and I also have a lot of stuff to do Today including seeing the children, but I don't want that evil beast being around them. Besides would they even let me out of the house?) sighing,
with a defeated look on his face, clover picks up his plate of food and walks of to his room, closing the door behind him.
Putting on his uniform, clover walks into the kitchen with his plate in hand. Hearing the door open, he turns around to see the unwanted squatter, living in his home.
Feeling anxious and annoyed just by the site of that demon, he hurries to the kitchen knowing he'd have to suck it up since he still had to hurry, not wanting to deal with another demon thats in charge of his paycheck. Scurrying off he almost made it to the sink but he got stopped by a ruff hand gripping his shoulder,
"Hold on short stack, where do you think you're going?"
Hearing the smirk in his voice, clover turned around with a calm look on his face, gripping the dirty plate, seething inside, pissed off just by the sight of such a vile and unholy being. He clenched his hand, almost forgetting that who's in front of him is a demon and not some asshole, mooching off of him. Walking to the sink he sat his dish into the sink, and then turns to face back to his "guest ".
"May I help you?" Clover said, trying to not sound to condensing with his tone.
" I just happen to notice that you only fixed a helping of breakfast to that gremlin and yourself. What about me and my plate huh?" He said With a pissed of tone, getting closer to clover, " dealing with so much bullshit in hell, looking for some disrespectful, heethen of a child and now I have to babysit some baby-faced human?, all this stress , is making me hungry as well." Hearing the annoyance in his tone, a cold sweat starts to overtake him.
( SHIT, SHIT, SHIT, SHIT, SHIT. Why would this stupid man get so mad, just because I didn't serve him breakfast.) trying to calm himself and the "situation" in front of him, he tries to get maverick to back away from him. "Please calm down, I was just getting ready for work, if I don't get dressed then I'll be late. I thought u would be able to fix your own food since I would believe u wouldn't trust some ^human^ with ur food" hearing his explanation, maverick slowly backed away, with a sly smirk on his face.
Exhaling in relief, clover started to move away, eying the time on the oven. *2:40*
(Fuuuck, my boss is gonna kill me if this monster doesn't!, it was hard enough getting this stupid job, I CAN'T get fired!!) " I'm sorry that you felt offended (entitled) by me not serving you, but please understand I need to go to work, I can't be late" hoping that the demon in front of him would understand his pleas and let him go.
