After Reece and Agatha finished scrubbing the dirt off my body I put on a lime green crop top, and throw a hoodie over it. The temperature here is surprisingly cold. This place is called hell fire but there’s nothing fiery about it. Maybe the heat is reserved for the sinners. I’m on blue skinny jeans and black and white sneakers. Reece and Agatha help comb my long curly black hair and they put it up in a ponytail. Reece and Agatha are both young but Reece is older than Agatha. Reece looks to be in her late twenties meanwhile Agatha looks twenty. Do people age in hell? My guess is no, time stops here. So does that mean I’ll be eighteen forever? While Max is aging I’ll be stuck at being eighteen. Maybe I should stop thinking about Max, I mean he isn’t thinking about me. Literally. But I can’t deny that I miss him so much. I tell Reece and Agatha that I do not like makeup but they insist they put on a little blush and lip gloss, so I agreed, they looked pretty excited to want to touch my face. So I let them. I’ve got to say. I’ve not felt this pampered in forever maybe because my parents wanted to pamper me but I disagreed on multiple occasions. The feeling was good, not gonna lie. It made me forget that I was in hell for a second. “There, you look so beautiful miss,” Agatha says smiling at my reflection. I smile at myself too. I look like a whole new person. Maybe I should accept the fact that this is my new normal. I’m going to be in hell for the rest of my life and I’m going to be Lucifer’s wife and the queen of hell. But seriously of all the sexy potential demons in this world, he couldn’t pick any of them to get married, it’s me he wants to get married to. I wasn’t even born when he made that deal with my parents. What if he sees me and he doesn’t like what he sees? What if he has seen me, he is Lucifer after all he has eyes everywhere. “Okay, I’m ready. Press the button so Ramona will come to escort me to the dining hall.” “Okay, Miss.” Agatha touches the red button and just a few seconds after Ramona takes her hand off of it, Ramona appears. “You rang Miss,” she asks excitedly. “Satan! Ramona calm down for Satan’s sake.” Reece’s bubbly personality disappears when she sees Ramona, and so does Agatha. Geez, what did I miss? Do they not like her? I see Ramona’s face distort into sadness as soon as Reece tells her to calm down. Their smile reappears when they turn to me. “We’re leaving miss, we’ll be around if you need anything.” I nod and they both leave, and they both scowl at Ramona before leaving the room. “Jesus--” Ramona gasps, my eyes widen. “What?” I ask her because she looks like she’s just seen a ghost. “You’re not allowed to say that name here. It’s a sensitive name in this realm.” I scoff. “What? Someone’s emotions are gonna get hurt because I said, Jesus?” “Sssh. Stop it,” she whispers. I raise my eyebrows. “Seriously?” she nods. Wow, I should have known, the devil does have beef with the almighty saviour. It’s their whole thing. I throw my hands in the air and I rise from the chair. “Fine, I won’t say that name again. Shall we?” “Yes, sure.” she walks ahead and when we come out I expect to see the henchmen but they’re nowhere to be found. Oh well, hope they’re gone forever I don’t like people following me. Especially weird-looking men. “So how did you get there so fast?” I ask her. “Oh, through a teleportation closet.” “Teleportation closet.” “Yes, it takes you from one room to the other only when the button’s being pressed. I’m addressed to your room so if you press the button I’m the only one allowed there, no one else.” “What about Reece and Agatha?” “Oh, no they only go to your room to give you a bath and help you with your choice of outfits for the day.” I nod but I still can’t get that look of disapproval out of my head. “Why don’t they like you?” “Huh? Oh, I don’t know.” I look at her with my eyebrows raised. “Are you sure?” “Oh, it’s just demons being demons.” she waves me off. “Ah, that’s the dining hall.” she changes the topic and opens the door to the hall. It’s larger than the dining hall in my house. The table already has lots of food and it’s the pig with the apple in its mouth that catches my attention. Wow, never thought I’d see that in real life. Maids are smiling at me as I make my way for the armchair There’s another armchair and it’s for the almighty dark lord. “Please, miss you can help yourself before he gets here,” Ramona says and I wave her off. I can wait. I don’t care if he’s the devil I’m going to wait for him before I eat. Despite how evil my parents are they raised me with manners. I do look at what’s on the table to see if I’ll enjoy anything. I see mac and cheese, I see some corn, bread, salad, meat, chicken, beef almost everything’s here. My stomach growls, oh God, when did I eat last? I didn’t even eat at my birthday party. I just realized I haven’t eaten all day. I try to distract myself by looking a
