He hadn't known where the little devil had come from. Arthur had been sitting in time out, after getting...well, quite drunk and ending up doing some...compromising things that his boss had frowned upon. So he'd been shunned to the corner of the sky, the darkest corner where only a few stars shined, and that's where he'd been perched when that thing, that unquestionably ignorant thing came up.

Alfred.

He had simply floated up in front of Arthur, a smirk gracing his features, dark bat-like wings stretched out lazily behind him. Arthur stared back coolly, ignoring the spark of unease in the pit of his stomach.

"What'd you do this time, old man? Did you sodomize again? I don't see how your boss can always forgive you so easily. Wouldn't you fit in better with my crowd?" The younger devil grinned and stuck out his tongue, bright blue eyes flaring.

Arthur's wings fluttered behind him, the glittering halo above his head tilted as he looked up.

"You're truly an idiot If you think that will convince me of anything, fat ass." He smirked and gave an eyebrow quirk, fluttering up to the nearest star above them. Alfred frowned and pouted, puffing up his cheeks as he rose with one large flap of his own.

"...with that mouth o' yours, I think you'd really get along better with my boss." He stuck out his tongue and made faces, flipping upside down and letting his spades-like tail slap Arthur in the butt. "Seriously though dude, what'd you do? This is the longest I've seen you pouting up here for."

Arthur yelped and covered his butt, glaring down daggers at the devil antagonizing him. He landed daintily onto the star, sighing.

"I...may have gotten drunk and perhaps, ruffled a few feathers, so to speak..." he had the meager humility to flush in shame and frown. "But why am I even telling you? You're a nuisance. You're mere presence gives everyone a bad impression of me! Now shoo, fly, don't bother me now." He grumbled, crossing his arms over his chest.

Alfred would have none of it and merely crossed his legs in mid-air, floating at the same level as Arthur. "...Naahhh, how about we talk about all the little reasons why you'd be better on MY side?" He lifted one finger. 'You sodomize. Like, a lot. I don't see how you're still allowed up there," With that he gestured towards the long stretch of beautifully crested, golden clouds held aloft in the highest edges of space.

"...but, whatever." He raised another finger, "You talk and shout like a sailor, no other angel seems to have that certain grace with words like you do." He grinned and lunged forward, wrapping one arm around his counterpart's waist, leaning forward so that their cheeks were mushed together.

"And...no other angel has ever been able to ignore my seduction as well as you seem to be able to. And that just makes me wanna try harder, y'know? Like the Apple in the garden, or whatever."

Arthur rolled his eyes, pushing away and straightening his feathery wings. "Yes well, that's all nice and good but, I don't see anything charming at all about you. Really." He huffed a bit and looked the demon up and down, shrugging. "Nothing at all. Perhaps you should get a full conceptualization of what I mean."

Alfred grunted and frowned, hands on his hips. "There you go again! Man, what is it about you. I've been able to tempt all the others I felt like, but not you! That is so absolutely and totally not cool and so unfair!" he floated up carelessly, swirling around on his back, kicking his legs. Arthur sat calmly, shaking his head.

"You're an absolute idiot! I have a whole century left to wait, and I'd rather it be without YOU. If I'm going to be stuck here, then it might as well be in PEACE."

Alfred stopped, upside down in front of the angel. His hair hung down floppily, yet his one cowlick managed to stand up, or down, perfectly. "...Why not just ditch?" He looked at him curiously, slowly swinging around so that he was supporting his head with his hands, lying out flat in thin air with his legs kicking. It took all of Arthur's willpower to not call him out for looking like a delicate preteen girl talking about her feelings.

"... Ditching? You realize this isn't just some day job, don't you? Not to mention, that's just morally wrong!" He mumbled the last part out in a hurry, almost forgetting to mention it. He really had no idea why he hung out with Alfred. He was often alone, no other angel wanted to be around him-and admittedly, he was a rather...vulgar talker, sometimes, but he was still a good angel! He tried, and the Boss knew it. Didn't he?

"You're lonely! Just come out with me for a bit, you know it's better than just sitting here for a whole 'nother century." Alfred grinned, raising his eyebrows in a rapid movement that could only be described as ridiculously laughable and not at all charming. He grabbed Arthur's hand before he could protest and pulled, tugging him down off the star.

"Wait..!" Arthur hesitated, glaring down at the devil holding his hand. "...if...if we get caught, it's your entire fault. I will blame you, and say you dragged me down against my will." He frowned, wings fluttering slowly.

Alfred blinked up at him and grinned deviously, "That's fine by me. So that's a yes? You'll come down with me?"

Arthur frowned, ripping his hand away. Alfred sighed at that, assuming he'd lost yet another battle.

He smirked wide and fist pumped as he saw a near blindingly white form rush past him, down towards the earth.

"Only if you can be entertaining and keep up!"

Pleassse R&R! ^^; It brightens my day, even if its critique, to get a message about my stories. So please do!

I'm not very good at switching from one personality to another :T I hope I can get better at it as I continue. I'll try to update as much as I can!

Thanks for reading, even if you just pointed and laughed the whole time. I know I'm no magician with words, but if you could even make fun of it and have fun, then I at least made you laugh! And that's all I want. :)
