After hearing his alarm go off, Adam slowly sat up in his bed and glanced over at his phone before shutting off the bird chirping sound. It was about 5 pm, and you might wonder...why his alarm was set for 5 in the evening? The answer to your question would be this : He's a demon ( well, half demon ) and he's a bartender whose shift starts at 7pm and ends at 1am. 

Getting up out of his bed slowly, he stretches his arms above his head and brings them down slowly before scratching at his neck. Running a hand through his already messy hair that was sticking out in several places, he went into his bathroom where he showered and washed up before brushing his teeth and rinsing with mouthwash. Lifting his head up slowly and looking at his reflection in the mirror, his normally honey colored eyes turned dark blue for a few seconds and his black wings stretched out behind him. 

Being in a city that was mostly filled with humans meant that he didn't get a chance to ' be himself ' as much as he wanted. He had thought about moving to a different city several times but he's always found reasons to stay.

" Another day, another dollar right? " 

He looked down to see the fuzzy gray ball of fur known as Delia staring up at him and she meowed before pawing at his leg. 

" Yeah, I'm hungry too. Let's go see what we can find in the fridge. " 

Putting on a clean pair of boxers and the black pants that were part of his uniform, he walked through his apartment to the kitchen where he looked through the fridge and decided on a roast beef sandwich with fries ( which he had to pop into the oven ). While he waited for the fries he opened a can of tuna and gave Delia about a third of it before putting the rest into the fridge. She was content with her meal and Adam focused on eating his sandwich while he waited for his fries. He was about halfway done with his sandwich when his phone rang from the bedroom and he wandered in there to answer it. 

" Hello? "

" [i]Hey Adam it's Dan.[/i] "

Dan was Adam's boss. 

" Hey Dan, you sound a little annoyed about something. Everything okay? " 

" [i]One of the new girls just told me she can't work tomorrow because ' something came up at the last minute ' and it's something that she absolutely can't miss. [/i] " 

Adam could just hear the air quotes.

" It's not Emily is it? " 

" [i]How'd you guess?[/i] " 

" Guessing games are something that I'm good at. Did you call to ask if I could take her shift? " 

" [i]Well I can't deny that you're rarely wrong when it comes to guessing things.[/i] " 

Adam waited for what he KNEW was coming. 

" [i]Would you mind terribly...taking her shift? I know you have tomorrow off and everything but I'd rather not be short staffed. We also seem to get more business when you're here.[/i] " 

" Is this your way of trying to butter me up Dan? " 

" [i]Is it working?[/i] " 

Adam laughed and scratched Delia's chin when she hopped onto the bed.

" Yeah, it's working. What time should I be there? " 

" [i]You're a saint Adam, you know that? Can you be here by 4?[/i] " 

" I can do that. " 

" [i]Great! I would tell you to enjoy the rest of your day, but you're going to be here in about an hour so the point is probably moot.[/i] " 

" I wouldn't necessarily call it moot. But anyway, I'll see you in about an hour. " 

" [i]Thanks again Adam![/i] " 

" You're welcome. Bye Dan. " 

" [i]Bye.[/i] " 

He pushed the ' End Call ' button and put his phone in his pocket before he headed back to the kitchen, where he took the fries out of the oven and turned it off. Salting the fries a little bit, he consumed them and the rest of his sandwich while Delia watched him from the bedroom doorway. 

" I'll be home around the usual time sweetie, be a good girl while I'm gone okay? " 

He got a meow in response followed by a purr when he bent down and petted her. After he finished getting dressed he put his wallet in his pants and grabbed his keys before getting into his car and heading off to work.
