“Closed?” Kevin arched his brow. “I’m thinking maybe you tried to go to the Pizza Hut again. You don’t work for Pizza Hut, okay? You work for me.”
“Groovy. The guys at Pizza Hut were assholes. You’re cool.”
“Thanks.” Kevin chuckled. “You know, some pizza sounds great. Why don’t you head out and me and Percy will be right there.”
“Are you sure we don’t work at Pizza Hut?”
“Nope, we sure don’t.”
“Okay. Yeah, cool, man.” Steve nodded. “And oh yeah! I hear white vinegar will get blood stains out of wood.” He waved as he headed outside. “Bye, cool doggy!”
Cher barked in reply.
“Fuck, I really love that guy.” Kevin laughed softly. “He’s a trip.”
“I suppose he’s entertaining at times,” Percy griped. “Still a tiny bit concerned that he’s a potential witness to your second murder of the day and how he can see our demonic pooch.”
“Must be the weed.”
“I shudder to think about what kind of marijuana he’s smoking that lets him see demon dogs.”
“Look, if it becomes a problem, you can just magical woo woo his brain, right?”
Percy scoffed. “I don’t think there’s much left to work with, but yes.”
“It’s gonna be fine. Steve is a good guy.” Kevin tried not to look at Joe’s body. He cleared his throat. “So, who’s gonna clean all this up?”
“Pffft. As if your boyfriend isn’t a very powerful demon.” Percy wiggled his nose.
Instantly, the blood, wards, and Joe’s body vanished. The ax was gone, though the sword remained, freshly cleaned and polished.
“There!” Percy waved around them. “See?”
“Holy shit.” Kevin stared at the pristine bar in shock. “Wow, I’m never cleaning again. That’s a cool trick!”
“Let’s get over to my place and I promise I’ll show you an even better one.” Percy wrapped his arms around Kevin, leaning up for a kiss.
“I can’t wait.” Kevin hugged him close and bumped their noses together. “Come on, princess. Your chariot awaits.” He led Percy toward the door, pausing to grab the sword. He opened the door with a bow, gesturing for Percy to go ahead of him.
“About that. Quick question.” Percy raised his brow. “Why didn’t you just fly here?”
“Uh.” Kevin hesitated. “Oh, well, uh… because… I forgot I could do that.”
“I love you, peaches. I really do.”
“I love you too.”
CHAPTERNINETEEN
Guess I’ll be going back to driving anyway, huh?” Kevin took Percy’s arm as they headed outside. “Since flying requires wings and all.”
“That is one downside of being a demon,” Percy lamented. “No fancy fluffy wings.”
Kevin opened up the passenger-side door of the truck for Percy. “Lame.”
“With some time, you can learn to woo woo yourself around though,” Percy said as he hopped up into the seat.
“I do like the magical woo woo.” Kevin grinned, waiting until Percy slid over and Cher jumped up to join him. He set the sword back in the floorboard and then closed the door. He headed over to Steve’s car, cringing at the plume of smoke that billowed out as Steve rolled down his window. “Hey, buddy. Glad you stopped by.”
