《Helluva Boss: Hellish Love (Loona X Original Character)》Chapter 49: Fame
Advertisement
A few hours had gone by and John and I sang a few more songs. We played 'I Am The Walrus', 'All You Need Is Love' and finally our last one 'With A Little Help From My Friends' which I got to sing. All were recorded and put online. Within a few minutes after the first song we uploaded it was already trending in already three of the circles of hell and so were the others. Loona and I were just watching the feed on John's PC. John had made tea for the two of us and a coffee for Loona, she was wide eyed just flicking through the feed and she said to me whilst still looking at the screen "Holy shit Carter you're trending in at least three of the rings of Hell!" John nearly spat out his tea and coughed before saying "Fucking three of them?!" I looked around worriedly and said "How bad is that?" Loona turned to me and held my face in her paws and said "The three that you're currently trending in are Pride, Wrath and Greed, so that means that we're trending in so far everyplace that we've ever been!" I was still confused and I said "So that means that I'm popular right? So what's the problem?"
John took off his two pairs of glasses and place them down on the coffee table and Loona sighed before saying "Carter I need you to listen, whilst yes you may think it's a good thing but it's also a bad thing at the same time. Celebrities down here are always in danger from thugs who want to either kill you, kidnap you, basically anything bad that you can think that someone might want to do to you they will try" John sighed and said "She's right mate, in the forty years that I've been down here I haven't been doing music and trying to get in the lime light for that exact reason. I'm not known in Hell for being a musician, I'm known for being a vigilante of sorts. I don't know why I thought this would've been a good idea. Basically what I'm trying to tell you is if I continued my music career down here then I most likely would already have been dead twice and out of existence forever" I went blank, all I could no longer hear what anyone was saying as it was replaced by ringing in my ears. I could only think back to killing my dad and how he was reduced to literal dust. John and Loona was saying that this might happen to me now, I have never felt this scared. All I thought to myself was "Oh fuck".

I noticed that Carter wasn't saying or doing anything, he was just blank faced, it was if there was no one home, it made me worry and I lightly tapped his face and said to him "Carter? Carter? Are you with me babe? Carter?!" I shook his shoulders. John noticed what was happening also and crouched by his side and said "Oh no I've seen this before" I had tears in my eyes and I shouted "What the fuck is wrong with him?!" John said "Has he had some kind of trauma recently? Something in which could trigger a response from him?" I thought and then it clicked, fucking hell here we are talking about him being in danger from this and he could die and only a few days ago did he kill his dad and watched him disintegrate to ash. I looked at John and said "Back at our place of work Carter's dad, John, came here to pay us to assasisnate his mother. Carter fought his dad and murdered him and he watched what happens to sinners who die in Hell, he watched him reduce to ash" John pinched the bridge of his nose and said "Oh fuck me. Alright listen here, Carter is lost in hi thoughts and he might be for a while. We can however snap him out of it quicker by doing something to him that will counter his thoughts such as something he likes or for instance loves like food, music basically anything". I thought and then I just went for It. I place my paws to his face and I pressed my lips to his and kissed him, As I did so I felt more tears steam down my face causing my mascara to smudge. I hear him sigh and I open my eyes and he's staring into mine. We depart and Carter smiles and says "Thanks I needed that" chuckling afterwards. John Lennon placed his two pairs of glasses back on and said jokingly "Ah tis like a fairy tail where true loves first kiss breaks the spell".

I smiled and shook my head trying not to laugh but then I composed myself and said "So what do we do from here?" John said "Well the only thing to do now is to try and get you back to your place without being seen or followed, we might have to do a car switch because there is definitely a probability that some people might already be waiting outside the hotel" Loona walked towards the window and looked down and placed her paws against the window and began hyperventilating and I ran over and I hugged Loona and said "Loona what's wrong?" Loona grabbed my head and slammed it into the window and screamed "Fucking look down!" I looked down and I went into a cold sweat. Below was a wave of people covering the street and you couldn't see the roads, I turn around and I said to John Lennon "I don't think we'll be able to leave at all" John said "I've dealt with a crowd outside my place many a time before surely it can't be that bad already?" John walked to the window and stood next to me and looked down. his mouth dropped and with shaking hands took of his pairs of glasses and gulped and said "Well this uh quite the number of people, uh so whilst we're stuck up here at least we have time to come up with a new plan".
