On a road trip, in a nearly full car. What a nightmare. Lucifer is at the front, driving the car because he said he’d be most responsible even though he can barely reach the pedals. Charlie is in the front seat with him, chatting excitedly about the road trip. Angeldust is in the car too, beside you and Alastor, husk only came along because he didn’t want to be left alone with Nifty back at the hotel. You were squeezed up against Alastor due to the tight fit, but neither of you seemed to mind the close proximity.

The radio played softly in the background, but no one paid attention to the music or the broadcaster. Angeldust chatted with Husk while scrolling on his phone, both engrossed in their own conversation. Charlie and Lucifer were preoccupied with their own activities while you and Alastor engaged in your own conversation.

As night fell and everyone drifted off to sleep under their blankets, you and Alastor remained awake. Just barely.

You were seated in Alastor’s lap, nestled between his legs as your eyes began to close, the blanket draped over you both snugly. However, Alastor wasn’t feeling sleepy, nor was he one to easily drift off. His hand slipped under the blanket, gently brushing over your pelvis and drawing circles on your lower abdomen, while you felt something pressing against your back.

“..I think.. we should take a break outside, darling,”

he whispered in a husky tone, careful not to wake anyone else with his voice.
