Author's note: Back with the second chapter … sorry if it took too long to update but I had no idea how to continue this. In this chapter I played a bit more with the characters, but I don't think I changed their personalities (no way!), just showed a bit more of their funny side.

Disclaimer: I own nothing … cry … except this fic 

-On the road-

When we last saw our two exorcists they have been suspended for one month due to another mass-destruction case courtesy of none other that Sister Rosette Christopher.

The main thing on their mind was to find a place to stay. Needless to say they were almost out of money, since the little that they usually earned was spent on damage payment. 'There's just gotta have to be some cheap place we could rent … even for a few days' thought Rosette, her partner on the other hand wasn't so optimistic 'We won't find a thing … I just know it' .As they were driving through the suburbs Rosette spotted a motel up in front.

'There! See that wasn't so hard' she said cheerfully

'Are there any rooms vacant at least?'

'…'

'Will you go ask then?'

'Why me?' he raised an eyebrow at that

'I'm going … be right back' she groaned a bit. 'Please have free rooms … please have free rooms'. She prayed. 'what am I thinking … of course they will … I … hope'. Opening the door the young nun spotted the receptionist and went up to the desk.

'Excuse me, but do you have any free rooms left?'

'Well, yes … wait a minute, aren't you that nun who keeps destroying stuff?'

'Ummm … I … you see …' she tried to explain but failed. It seemed that the papers were full with reports of the destroyed property.

'I'm sorry, but we've run out of spare rooms'

'But …'

'Have a nice day!'

At the next motel:

'Oh … well … sorry … no rooms'

And the next:

'Nope …'

After a couple of hours of such rejections Rosette was fuming. Apparently nobody was wiling to take the risk of allowing her to stay in the building. No matter how hard she tried to explain …

'Rosette, let's just spend this night in the car and we'll search again tomorrow' the devil offered

'Sure … hope they let me park somewhere' she replied sarcastically

Five minutes later …

'Chrno, move over …' she groaned

'But you're already half way on my seat'

'And your problem is?' in a warning tone

'Nothing … you can have as much space as you like' he stated not wanting to anger her more, if that was even possible. During the night both were starting to freeze. So they got closer … and closer … and … closer, until they were practically in each other's laps. And that's how the morning sun found them. Chrno was the first to wake up, when he noticed his seat was suddenly more comfortable and warm 'what the …' he thought taking a look around. Suddenly he turned a dark shade of crimson; his contractor's face was less than an inch from his.

'Rosette, wake up … please … aw come on' she wasn't even budging. 'Come on … what do you think I am, a pillow?' she nodded though still asleep. 'Hmm … she asked for it!' he thought. There was one thing his contractor couldn't take … tickling … She started to giggle slightly as his hands moved rapidly onto her sides.

'Chrno stop … I'm awake' she wasn't '… come on …' still asleep. After 10 more minutes of intense tickle war they were both awake and laughing madly. 'finally a morning when I didn't get pounded or screamed at' he thought … and was probably right.

After a quick breakfast they were back on the road searching for a place to stay. The only problem was that they managed to somehow get lost and ended up on a deserted country road … not a car or carriage in sight.

Two hours later …

'Where … the … hell … are … we?' Rosette yelled angrily.

'I have no idea, but we'd better find something soon before we both go crazy …'

'Riiiiight'

'…'

'…'

'Rosette, pull over!' he suddenly yelled

'What, did I hit something … someone?' she was alarmed. But Chrno didn't hear her, he was already out of the car and running towards what seemed like an abandoned house.

'Rosette, come over here!' as she was getting closer 'look, it's definitely abandoned and probably has been for a couple of years … why don't we use this place?'

'This?' a doubtful expression on her face '… but it's … it's …'

'No offence but, you got a better idea?'

'Umm … ok, we'll use this … AFTER … we clean up a bit'

Three hours later

'I'm beat …' said Chrno

'Me too … I'm starting to miss the Order already … I wonder if Azmaria found out about this stupid suspension'

'You know Az … she probably got so worried she went to Sister Kate the minute she didn't find you' he chuckled, the little apostle always worried when she couldn't find Rosette or him.

'Yeah … ummm … what time is it?' Chrno just stared at her 'No clue' … 'Ummm … '

'Never mind, let's go scout this area a bit, maybe we can find something to eat too, or if we're lucky we'll find the main road and get an idea on where exactly we are' he nodded.

Their little cottage was settled near the forest, which looked like something out of a horror novel, still they had no option, but to go and explore. Something was weird about this place, Chrno could feel it, but for Rosette's sake he kept quiet. The last thing he wanted was her to start worrying, after all if something did happen he was here, ready to take on anything. After a few hours they decided to turn back before it turns dark. Rosette wasn't quite fond of dark spooky forests, not that she was scared, she'd probably beat the crap out of anything if needed. She just felt weird, even with Chrno there to help her.

Nightfall …

They were back at the cottage, having a light dinner (some biscuits and fruit they found). Exhausted after a whole day of work and search, they decided to hit the sack and get a good night's rest.

Morning …

Chrno woke up early to start on breakfast, they had an old stove they could cook on so he decided to try and make something for when Rosette wakes up. He slowly got up when he heard some loud knocks on the door. He was stunned.

'Anybody there?' a muffled voice asked 'how can this be, we're in the middle of nowhere … there isn't a house anywhere for miles … impossible' this was too weird even for a demon …

'Hello!' said the voice louder
