Monday rolled around and Dante was standing in front of his apartment building waiting for the IMP van to pick him up. He was not looking forward to work today mainly because he would have to see Loona again. After that drunken night together he's been dreading seeing her again mainly because he couldn't stop thinking about her without her clothes on, he knew that once they got to work things would be awkward between them, and honestly, he wasn't looking forward to it.
The IMP van pulled up, Blitzo lowered the passenger side window, doing so Dante saw Loona sitting in shotgun. They made eye contact for a second before Loona buried her face in her phone trying to hide the fact her face was turning red.
"Come one kid, get in, we got people to kill today!" he said enthusiastically. Dante opened the passenger side door and got in the back with Millie and Moxxie.
The faculty of IMP sat in the conference room as Blitzo was going over the details of the day's assignment, but Dante was not listening as he was trying with all his might not to make eye contact with Loona and it was pretty difficult since he was stuck facing her during the meeting. He was hoping to get a seat at the other end of the table but Millie and Moxxie took those seats, sticking him with the seat across from Loona. Dante looked up from his hands he immediately regretted it as he made eye contact with Loona, they both immediately looked away blushing. While Blitzo was ignorant of the strange behavior between his younger employees, his other employees were not so blind.
Millie and Moxxie watched their two younger coworkers curiously, confused by their strange behavior. Millie suddenly sat up.
"Ohh, shit I lost my phone, hey Moxxie help me find it in the van," she said, grabbing Moxxie by the arm and dragging him out of the office. The rest of the staff just stared at the office door confused.
"Ten bucks says there gonna fuck," Blitzo said with a smirk.
Outside the IMP office Millie and Moxxie stood in the halls talking.
"What the hell do you think is going on with those two?" Millie asked her husband.
"I don't know, before they had no real issues with each other now they can barely stand to be in the same room together, I mean hell they cant even make eye contact without getting uncomfortable," Moxxie said rubbing his chin.
Suddenly Millie's eyes went wide, "you think they're in love," she said with hearts forming in her eyes, Moxxie just laughed.
"Those two seriously, no way, Dante's way out of Loona's league, he would never go out with someone like her," Moxxie said with a laugh, while Millie looked at him with a pouting face.
"Why wouldn't they be together? They'd be so cute together," she cood putting her hands together and leaning her head to the side.
"Oh please, you know I see a lot of myself in that kid, and no way he would go for someone like Loona he'd go after someone, kind, sweet, someone who knows slit a throat, like you Millie," he explained, gesturing to her.
"Aww," Millie said, hugging Moxxie. "Come on let's get back before they get suspicious," Millie said, grabbing Moxxies hand and leading him back into the office.
"Wow that was pretty quick, it must be hard to have both a small dick and short stamina eh Mox," Blitzo said with a cheeky grin, while Moxxie scowled.
Loona opened a portal for the four assassins to go through to reach their target, first to go through was Blitzo, followed by Moxxie, then Millie, Dante was about to go through the portal when suddenly he was stopped by Millie.
"Dante sweetie I think we got this assignment covered, why don't you stay here and relax," she said with a smile.
"What why? I'm a great shot come on," he said, annoyed at basically being benched.
"It's fine you just stay here," she replied, putting her hands on his chest and gently pushing him back, before turning to go through the portal, leaving Dante dumbfounded.
"What the fuck am I supposed to do while you guys are fucking around on earth!" Dante asked, both confused and a little annoyed at being pushed aside.
"You could have a chat with Loona," she said with a smirk giving Dante a wink.
Before he could reply Millie went through the portal and it closed behind her. Dante just stood there staring at the spot where the portal used to be, for a whole minute before turning around his eyes landing on Loona who was sitting at her desk. They both made eye contact and stared at each other uncomfortably, blushing.
Dante sat on the office couch arms crossed while Loona sat at her desk across the room, neither one was willing to make eye contact with the other.
Time dragged on, seconds felt like hours, and minutes felt like days, and hours felt like years, god dammit guys when are you gonna get back! Dante thought to himself, he looked up at the clock and saw it had only been an hour. Dante groaned, Loona's ears perked up, she looked over at Dante and scowled.
"What?" she asked with frustration clear in her voice, things have been tense and it seems it's finally reached a breaking point.
"Nothing," Dante said with frustration in his voice as well.
Normally Loona would have brushed it off and gone back to her phone. She didn't usually care about others but right now she was pissed and she was sick and tired of this whole situation.
"Ohh it's not nothing, and I think I have a pretty good idea what's eating your ass," she said glaring at him. Dante pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Look Loona what happened last Friday was a mistake ok we both agreed to just brush it under the rug, I mean you're the one who wanted to pretend it didn't happen, so can we please do that for Christ's sake?" Dante asked, lighting a cigarette, and taking a drag.
Its true Loona was the one to first suggest pretending that night didn't happen it wasn't because she was embarrassed, or because she was mad at Dante for drunk fucking her, she wanted to pretend it didn't happen because she knew he was embarrassed for sleeping with a hell hound.
In hell's hierarchy Hellhounds are the lowest of the low, now while yes technically they were on the same level as imps they were just barely on the same level and a lot of imps liked to treat her kind like pets because of it. She gets it all the time never being referred to by name, always called the Hellhound or Blitzo's Hellhound, or the mutt, it's infuriating. Dante was the only imp who ever really treated her like a person, when he sat down at the bar and referred to her as Blitzo's daughter, instead of his Hellhound she... felt something, something she hadn't felt before. She was certain what she felt is what drove her to sleep with Dante, but when she woke up the next morning and saw how clear the regret was on his face, she knew he was no different than the rest, and honestly that hurt.
"Fine, sure, if sleeping with me is so humiliating for you, then sure we can just act like nothing happened, if it'll save your pride," she said, annoyed. Dante looked at Loona confused, by this sudden outburst.
"Pride, Loona, what the hell are you talking about?" Dante asked, not sure of her reasoning.
"Oh you know exactly what I'm talking about you asshole, look I get it I'm a Hellhound I'm nothing more than a pet, I know your probably embarrassed and you don't want anyone to know you got drunk and fucked one, so yeah let's just pretend it didn't happen," she said anger seeping into her voice, and Dante could have sworn he saw a tear in her eye before she turned around showing him her back.
"Loona what, no I'm not embarrassed that I slept with you, I don't give a fuck if you're a Hellhound," Dante said, the frustration in his voice being replaced with sympathy. Loona just scoffed.
"Yeah, sure you are," she said clearly not believing him, she headed back towards her desk but before she could sit down, she felt Dante grab her arm and spun her around to face him.
"Loona, I mean it I don't give a damn if you're a Hellhound, in fact I don't give a fuck about the hierarchy of Hell in fact I think it's all a bunch of fucking bullshit!" he shouted, waving a hand in the air.
"This hierarchy bullshit was just set up by Lucifer and the other noble demons so they could feel less like losers after getting their asses kicked by god and his angels, in the end it means nothing! Nothing I tell you!" he shouted, taking Loona by both her arms and pulling her close.
"Look Loona I'm sorry if you thought my aversion to our night together was me being ashamed of you, I'm not ashamed, I was just worried that you would be pissed since you were drunk or that if Blitzo found out he would try to castrate me," as Dante explained his reasonings Loona looked into his black and red eyes and didn't see any sign that he was lying or had any ill will towards her.
"So, you're really not bothered by me being a Hellhound?" she asked, wrapping her arms around his neck.
"As long as you're not bothered by me being an Imp," he said with a smile on his face as his hands went down to her lower back.
"Nope no problems here," she said, smiling right back.
"Good so how about I make this whole mess up for you?" he asked coyly as he lowered one of his hands down and grabbed her ass.
She gasped before pulling Dante into a deep kiss. The two fell down behind Loona's desk, their clothes flying through the air.
Suddenly Dante's phone began to ring but as he was too...preoccupied to get it it went to voicemail. The sound of bullets and rifle fire sounded from the phone's speakers, and Moxxies disheveled voice rang out.
"Dammit Dante pick up we need your help the job's been botched Blitzo is unconscious, and we're taking heavy fire," as he was talking Loona's hand fell from behind the desk, she gripped the carpet before she was pulled back behind the desk leaving long claw marks behind.
Loona sat on top of her desk naked, scrolling through her phone catching her breath after the few rounds she and Dante went through. As she was scrolling, it started ringing Moxxie was trying to call her; she ignored it not wanting to deal with that baby-dicked bastard killing her buzz right now.
Dante walked back into the office, wearing nothing but his jacket and pants, he had gone to the vending machine down the hall and got them two beers. Tossing one too Loona they opened them and started drinking, Loona had just finished her first simp when she noticed that Dante was already done with his, he looked disappointed.
"God the beer in that machine sucks," he said, tossing the bottle aside.
"Aww poor thing wants me to cheer you up?" she cooed, spreading her legs inviting Dante.
Dante smiled, rushing over to Loona they began to furiously makeout while Loona wrapped her legs around him, but as they were making out the Ars Goetia book which was placed on the corner of the desk fell off and opened activating and opening a portal. It was at that moment a bruised, burned, and battered Millie and Moxxie carrying an unconscious Blitzo.
"Finally! We've been calling for the past two hours waiting for you guys to open the damn portal…" Moxxie trailed off when he saw Loona and Dante wrapped in each other's arms, naked.
Dropping Blitzo on the floor the two groups just stared at each other awkwardly for a few seconds before millie suddenly shouted,
"I knew it, I knew there was something going on between you two, hah take that Moxxie," she bragged pointing at Moxxie who just rolled his eyes.
Dante and Loona quickly pulled away from each other and got dressed as they did Loona looked at both Millie and Moxxie and said;
"If either of you tell Blitzo about this I swear I will rip your throats out!" she growled glaring daggers at them, Moxxie gulped.
"Don't worry we aint snitches besides I doubt Blitzo would approve of this," Millie said looking down at the unconscious Blitzo.
After getting dressed the staff of IMP were about to leave when suddenly Dante and Loona were dragged into a hug by Millie.
"I'm so happy for you two i always thought there was a spark and how brave you two must be to date despite the odds being against you, ohh i can't wait for the wedding," Millie squealed letting go of the two and walking off with her husband to the car.
Dante looked at Loona who just giggled at Millie's goofy behavior, Dante smiled.
