Marked By Alastor

Chapter 3.) New Friends

 Angel scoffs "Your loss." But alastor was still focused on me "Darling, your laugh is simply music." I blushed, good god he was so captivating but I couldn't show that I liked him. "Thank you." He walked over to me "what is your name sweetheart?" he was so close to me and I was freaking out hard core "y/n" he grabbed my hand like before and kissed it "A pleasure to meet you." I'm able to keep it together, he turns his attention back to the hotel "Well, this just won't do!" he takes out his mic staff "I suppose I can cash in a few favors to liven things up." At the snap of his finger, a new fireplace has replaced the hotel's worn down one as he approaches it and picks up covered in soot, which then opens its eye and stares at the group behind him. it poofs off the soot from its body. Alastor grins "This little darling is Niffty!" she was so cute and small. She drops to the floor. "Hi, I'm Niffty! It's nice to meet you! It's been a while since I've made new friends!" she eyes us four "Why're you all women?" angles eyes widen as Niffty lifts Charlie. "Are there any men here?!" She puts Charlie down crossing her hands in front of her "I'm sorry, that's rude." her eye looks around "Oooh man, this place is filthy! It really needs a lady's touch! Which is weird because you're all ladies, no offense." she stares as she takes out a feather duster. "Oh my gosh, this is awful!" she speed cleans throughout the hotel "Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope!" Niffty spots a cockroach and stabs it with a pin "Nope!" she was very energetic. 

a voice unknown coming from nearby, we all look to see who it is. he lays his cards down the table "Hah! Read 'em and weep, boys! Full Ho-" demonic illusions and voices distort the surroundings temporarily "-tel? What the "You!" Alastor just smiles and spreads his arms "Ah, Husker, my good friend! Glad you could make it!" Husker look like he wanted to kill his so called 'friend'. "Don't you "Husker" me, you son of a bitch! I was about to win the whole damn pot!" the jackpot disappears into nothingness. Alastor just smiled "Good to see you too!" he says unfazed.

Husker facepalms angrily "What the hell do you want with me this time...?" Al walks over to husker and puts his arm around him "My friend, I am doing some charity work so I took it upon myself to volunteer your services! I hope that's okay!"  Husker shrugs him off" Are you shittin' me?" Al takes a moment to respond  "Hmm... No, I don't think so." Husker shoves Alastor "You thought it'd be some kind of big fucking riot just to pull me out of nowhere?!" Alastor dusts himself off "You think I'm some kind of fucking clown!" Al grins as if he's about to laugh "Maybe!" Husker turns away from him "I ain't doing no fucking charity job."

Alastor teleports behind him through his shadow "Well, I figured you would be the perfect face to man the front desk of this fine establishment!" He gestures towards the bar he made out of his magic with your charming smile he pulls Husks's lips into a forced smile "and welcoming energy, this job was made for you! Don't worry my friend," he walks over to the bar, revealing the soles of his shoes to have deer prints "I can make this more welcoming! ...If you wish." he makes a bottle of "Cheap Booze" appear out of nowhere. I was utterly awed at his magic.

I thought this would have pissed him off more but he just stares at the booze for a second "What? You think you can buy me with a wink" he winks sarcastically "and some cheap booze?!" he grabs the booze and looks at it "...Well, you can!" downing the booze, he walks behind the bar. "Hey, hey! Hey, hey, hey! No! No bar, no alcohol! This is supposed to be a place that discourages sin! Not some kind of mouth, brothel, man cave~" Angel launches himself at Vaggie from somewhere off screen* SHUT UP! SHUT! UP! We-" He points to the bar with all his fingers "are keeping this!"

In an instant he's flirting with Husker "Hey~" he just takes another sip of  his booze "Go fuck yourself." unfazed he holds Husk's face "Only if you watch me!" good god he could take a rejection. Charlie greeted him"Oh my gosh! Welcome to The Happy Hotel! You are going to love it here!" tries to go for a handshake but he just reaches for his booze "I lost the ability to love years ago." and continues to down his booze, I feel like there was a story behind that, and I really wanted to hear it.  

"So, whaddaya think?" Alastor ask's "This is amazing!" she rubs her cheeks excitedly Vaggie just  crosses her arms "It's... okay." Al reels the two towards him "Hahaha! This is going to be very entertaining!"

*Alastor break's into song* 

Eventually the hotel calms down, Niffty, Husker were taken my Charlie and vaggie "Y/n, can you show Al to his room?" Charlie called over her shoulder, I looked at Alastor who smiled at me then looked back at Charlie "I don't know abo-" but she was already gone "My pleasure" I mumbled under my breath. Alastor walked over to me grabbed my arm and wrapped it underneath his. "Show me the way dear." I sighed I walked him to the west-wing of the hotel, both angle and I slept there. I showed him his door "well there ya go-" I turned on my heel about to walk away, he grabbed my arm lightly. "Just a minuet, aren't you going to show me my room?" I smiled the best I could "well your a big boy"clearly "I'm sure you'll manage." I took a step back but he held tight "Its very rude to leave in a haste, besides as the staff of the hotel you must show the guest, his or her room, and I happen to be a guest."                   

Good glory I wasn't gonna leave was I?  "as you wish." I sighed. I unlocked the door with his key, I could feel him staring at me, as soon as the lock unlatched I opened the door. "sorry it's super messy in here." he lightly placed his hand on my back and pushed me in, I turned around, he closed the door locking it. "I want to ask you a question dear, How long have you been in hell?" I shrugged "about a few months give or take, it feels like an eternity though, why do you ask?" he walked behind me and grabbed a chair that was on the floor lifting it up he gestured for me to sit, I did and he grabbed another chair and sat himself down. "Well dear, you're still in your demonic from and that can really effect your energy level." he was right I was feeling drained 24/7, it took a lot to do the most simple things. "I'm guessing you are still gaining your memories back as well?" I nodded "yeah, I get bits and pieces here and there." he nodded "mmm.." 

"And what do you have so far?" he crossed his legs placing his elbow on his knee resting his chin on his hand. "Um well, My name is y/n I'm 17, I grew up in new Orleans, and I died by getting hit by a car, which is a pretty lame way to go if you ask me." He smiled "well dear it's not the lamest way to end." I crossed my legs and straightened my spine doing my best to show confidence. "it's not?" he shook his head "no no, I know a man who died falling off a toilet." I laughed "how in the world did he do that?" he shrugged "there's alway one in a million my dear."  I laughed again, he seemed to enjoy making me laugh.

"would you like to hear a joke?" I nodded"yes please." he grinned "why did the bike fall over?" I shrugged " I don't know? why?" he smiled "he was two tired." I laughed and he grinned "why did the golfer bring two pairs of pants?" He waited a minute. "In case he got a hole in one." I laughed again. For a radio demon he didn't seem so bad. "well darling thank you for you company, but I will let yo- oh! I almost for got, you in still in demon form!" I raised an eyebrow "close your eyes love." I hesitated "trust me, you'll feel a lot better after this." I closed my eyes "now, breath in and out, focus on you." I breathed in, then out. "good now, think about absolutely nothing." I tried my best, I felt his hand on my forehead, what was he doing ? "your still thinking." I controlled my thoughts. "good now relax." I felt heat on my forehead, a sudden weight lift off my back and tailbone, my head felt lighter too. "there dear you in normal form." I opened my eyes and looked around the room for a mirror, not finding one Alastor snapped his fingers. My eye's were still blue, my skin still gray and my hair still long and as black as coal, but my wings and horns were gone my tail was nowhere in sight. I smiled in relief 

"you look absolutely stunning." I smiled at him, getting from my seat I ran and hugged him, he tensed slightly but after a minute he hugged me back. "Thank you! thank you! thank youuuu!" he chuckled "for corse darling." I was really starting to like him.
