Ch. 29: Eric VonBeaten (Your Grandson)

You're at home at the castle. You, the Devil and all of your kids. Victor, Annie, Cynthia and Jackie. Annie has her husband Joey VonBeaten and her son Eric. Eric is the most precious little boy to you. You and the Devil both. Eric actually happens to be the first grandchild to the Devil in over eight hundred years.

The one thing Annie gets from you that you've realized is that her first born is a boy. Just like you with Victor. Her with Eric, but Annie has just one child so far and you and the Devil one grandchild. Yet, Victor himself has no children. Just Annie so far. But Victor has fallen for someone for years. You and the Devil will spoil your grandson a lot. But then again, so will his aunts and uncle.

As you eat, both Victor and little Eric are chowing down like typical guys. You smile and you say, "Typical guy appetite." Then again, you see the Devil and Henchman doing the same. Also, Stickler is there with his daughters Mandy and Amber. Amber's his youngest and she's eleven years old. She like Stickler is blue in complexion. Has the same hair color as Mandy, but doesn't wear glasses. She has her hair in braided pigtails. She has a different mom. 

Mandy and Jackie are sitting close together and gossiping about something. And since they are the two most popular girls in Hellfire High in Inkwell Hell with Jackie as the queen bee. Jackie actually possibly being the most popular girl in all of Hell since she is the Devil's daughter.

Truth is, Mandy's mother was never there for her. Her mom Michelle was a straight up cunt who refused to take part and pitch in as a mother she should be. Stickler had stuck around his daughter and raised her the best way he could. 

Even she herself could tell he was the nerdy type when she got older, but she still loved him. She knew he was always there for her, so she respects him and loves him no matter how nerdy or how boring he is with him being Hell's auditor and her being super popular in school. He is her biological father and he cared for her, her whole life. She has a younger sister, too. Her name's Amber. Amber has a different mom. Both same dad. Stickler is still with Amber's mom, Helena.

Jackie says, "Hey, Mandy. I'm throwing a killer party here at daddy's castle. It's going to be off the hook, girl. I'm inviting every cool student like ourselves." Mandy grins and says, "Nice. I'm down. Booze and all, baby." Jackie says, "Well, guh."

Jackie leans in and whispers, "I'm going to send that false cheating text to Akiko from Frank. They'll be avoiding each other for like, ever. Akiko can be yours." Mandy grins and whispers, "Anything to have Akiko, girl." 

Jackie says, "You'll get her. My bestie doesn't get her... nobody does." Mandy says, "Awe." Jackie says, "If you, my bestie can't have the one you love girl... nobody can." Mandy smiles and says, "You're my best girl." Jackie says, "You're mine, too. You're fucking royalty girl. Not compared to me. I'm the daughter of the Devil... But above everyone else." Mandy smiles.

Amber says, "Hey, Mandy. I heard you want to steal that girl from that Frank guy. Is this true?" Mandy says, "Ugh. Shut up, Amber. Mind your own goddamn business." Stickler says, "Ahem. Mandy... Be nice to your sister." 

Mandy sighs and says, "Fine... Sorry, Amber. Yes... I do want Akiko." Amber grins and says, "Figures. Frank is kind of a douche. Why would Akiko, the daughter of Yuki Onna fall for him?" Mandy says, "Well good. You've learned a few things from me, Amber." 

Helena says, "I'm all about blood, gore, violence, all the souls being tortured down here... but I want you two to get along. Please? Mandy... You're like a daughter to me. I love you. You understand, honey?" 

Mandy sighs and says, "Well, truth be told... I'd rather have YOU as my mom than that fucking Michelle. That fucking cunt." Helena smiles. Stickler says, "I can assure you, Mandy sweetheart that your biological mother will not interfere with our lives. Also according to the Devil himself." 

The Devil says, "I'm making sure every one of my female demons are protected. Even the imps." Victor says, "Dad." The Devil says, "Yes, Victor?" Victor says, "There's something I want to talk to you about after dinner." The Devil says, "Son. You know anything you need to get off your chest, you can tell me my dear boy." Victor smiles.

You say, "Victor." Your son looks at you and says, "Yes, mom?" You say, "Eat up and get plenty of nutrients. Every male demon needs to." He says, "I will. I promise." You smile. He says, "I'm not going to let anyone hurt you." You say, "Awe. Thanks, honey." He says, "I'm at my worst if anyone hurts MY mother." You sigh and you smile, putting your hand up to your heart. 

The Devil grins and says, "He sure does care about his mother no matter what. I appreciate that. Every demon has one weakness. Victor's is his mother." Victor says, "I'll do anything to protect the ones I care about, father." The Devil says, "And I appreciate you doing that, son." Victor smiles.

Annie says, "I need to take Eric here to get his shots, tomorrow." You all look at her. You say, "You do, huh?" Your grandson Eric is only two years old and he's sitting in his highchair next to Annie and Joey.

Eric looks at you and smiles saying, "Gamma!" That's his way of saying 'grandma' to you since he's two and still learning to speak. You smile and you say, "Hi, baby.~" He giggles. You say, "Awe. Gamma loves you, handsome.~" He giggles and says, "Love you, gamma." 

Devil grins and says, "Awe. He sure is great, isn't he, honey?" You smile and you say, "Excellent... Ol' Scratch." He says, "Ah, I remember the first day I met you back in 1992. You've been referring to me as Ol' Scratch since. Our thirty-one years of being together since you were twenty." You look at him and you smile.

Cynthia grabs another crescent roll and Jackie says, "Jeez, Cynth. Why not just like, take all the rolls?" Cynthia says, "I'm the fat ass of the siblings. I can't help it." Jackie sighs and says, "Whatever. You're lucky I still love you." Victor says, "Don't call yourself fat, Cynthia." Devil says, "Thank you, Victor." Victor nods and eats his food.

Cynthia says, "Hey, mom." You look at her and you say, "Yes, sweetie?" She holds her phone up and she plays a song. It's Even Flow by Pearl Jam. She says, "You liked this song, right?" You smile and you say, "Still my favorite song." 

Cynthia turns it up and you move your head to it. You hum to it and you sing to the part where Eddie sings, "Even flow. Thoughts arrive like butterflies. Oh, he don't know, so he chases them away..." 

You see Eric dancing a little bit in his highchair and he giggles. You see this and you smile and say, "Awe. You want to dance, honey?~" He giggles and says, "Gamma." You look at Annie and you say, "Annie. Joey. Do you need me to come with you?" Joey says, "That would be great, (Y/N)." 

Devil says, "Don't worry, Annie. Your mother and I will be there for you, no matter what. We'll join you for Eric's shots." Annie smiles and says, "Thanks so much guys. This is Eric's third shot he's gotten since we had him and I am a little scared. I hate hearing him screaming and crying." 

Devil says, "We'll be there, honey. No worries. You know your mother and I will support you and your siblings no matter what." Annie says, "Thanks, dad." Henchman says, "I do hate hearing him cry so loudly. It's... a weakness." 

You say, "No worries, Henchman. We'll be there." Henchman smiles. Stickler says, "Yes. I've been informed that little Eric is due for his shots by Thursday evening. It is precisely Monday today. He'll need this shot by then or else he won't be so immune to the surface aka Inkwell Isle." Devil says, "Yes. Thank you, Stickler." 

Jackie gets a text and she looks at her phone. She gasps and says, "George just messaged me." Devil sighs and looks at her. Jackie says, "He's got my corsage for the upcoming prom." She grins with excitement and says, "He's such a gentleman." Devil says, "I'll make sure that boy doesn't stand you up at prom. He will regret it." 

Jackie says, "Ugh. Come on, daddy. He's not gonna do that to the queen bee of Hellfire High. Let along YOUR daughter. Besides, he's my soul mate." Devil says, "You're damn right he won't stand up MY daughter. He's toast if he does. By that, I mean that I'll blast the boy into smithereens if he stands up or ditches my little girl. He'll literally be a soul mate then." He has that evil look.

You put your hand on Devil's shoulder and you say, "No worries, Devil darling. You hold the power of all beings in the underworld. You're in control no matter what." Devil sighs and smiles saying, "Where would I be without you?" You smile. 

You look at Annie and you say, "Annie, honey. Your dad and I will come with you guys when Eric gets his shots. I understand you're still new at parenting. I have four of my own including you. I have experience. I'll teach you more of what you need to know, honey." 

Annie smiles and says, "Thanks so much guys. That means so much." Devil says, "Oh, and Victor." Victor says, "Yeah, dad?" Devil says, "We'll have that talk... about what you wanted to talk about. You know I'm here for you no matter what, son." Victor smiles. You all continue eating dinner.
