Angel and Husk sat together on the large couch, not talking and dousing themselves in the uncomfortable silence.  The air seemed thick and awkward and not a world was spoken. It was truly painful.

"Sooo...What now?" Angel asked, turning his head to the extremely flushed Husk.

"I don't know...I've never confessed to a boy before...Or anyone." Husk awkwardly stated, burring his face in his hands in embarrassment.

"What! Really?" Angel replied, giving him a confused stare.

"Yeah..." Husker replied, taking his head out his hands and looking at him. "Relationships never really appealed to me. Yeh, I slept around a lot. Girls and boys.  But I had an image to show for, ya know? You don't see yourself in relationships when you're meant to be mean and tough."  Husker confessed.

"Really Husk? That's real pathetic." Angel snickered, covering his mouth with his hand a little.

"What!? You should be happy you're my first relationship, right? Some sort of an achievement, I guess?" Argued Husk. Dramatically shrugging his shoulders and gesturing his hands.

"Well...I suppose it's sorta nice." Angel confessed. He pointed his head down to look at his knees and then he gave a side glance and soft smile to his brand new lover.

"Yes. Thank you. Geez." Husk grumped, crossing his arms.

"Oh shush ya grumpy fur ball." Angel laughed. "But seriously...What now?" he asked again.

"Maybe, we could tell everyone in some sort of meeting, but later. The Hotel bar is opening in like half an hour and I have about hundred plus dirty dishes." Husk confessed, rubbing the back of his neck.

"Seriously. Why were ya just sittin around then?" Angel face palmed.

"I dunno, too lazy. Why don't you help then?!" Husk testified, pointing at Angel.

"I don't do dishes." Angel smirked. "I'd do you though."

"So...I'm gonna go do the dishes now." Husker stiffly walked away, his face more red then a perfect tomato.

"Pfft, what a goof." Angel snickered watching his embarrassed boyfriend walk away. "I guess he's my goof though...The fuck, no that's cringey as hell."

sigh.

The work day was almost over. The clock had almost struck 8pm and that was the time the bar would be closed. Husker was just getting the bill off the last few demons and taking their dishes. It was almost time. Almost time to tell everyone about his and Angels relationship. Was he nervous, yes. Embarrassed, no, he was going to show off Angel like a new car.

He swiftly collected the tip off the table as the demons left for their rooms and waved goodbye. The lobby would be closing and be open for the staff, like it used to be. The old times felt so long ago but he was happy the Charlie x Vaggie drama was over and he was finally left alone to drink or whatever, how he liked it. But now it will go back to the old times. It was his responsibility it felt like to get everyone talking again instead of being locked away busy.

Husk shut the shutters of the bar and sighed. Wandering away from the small area he worked at, he traveled upstairs as he assumed Angel Dust would be in his assigned room.

"There are too many stairs in this god forsaken hotel." Husk grumped to himself, loosing his breath. Too many for an old fur bag like him.

Finally getting to Angel's floor he walked down the hall and knocked on his door. It opened hastily and standing there was his tall boyfriend giving him his famous, mischievous smirk.

"Took ya long enough." Angel commented, looking down at the out of breath cat.

"This hotel has a lot of fucking stairs." Husk complained, catching his breath.

"And this hotel has an elevator. Also, not to mention, you literally have wings, ya dumbass." Angel snickered. He liked winding Husk up, always have.

"Listen here. I've had a long fucking day and-."  Husk started to complain but was immediately quieted when pulled in by Angel and given a soft, gentle kiss on the lips.

"Shut up." Angel giggled after releasing the embrace.

"Sure...Whatever...I was gonna anyways." Husk blushed, slightly hiding it with his hand.

They started walking together downstairs to Charlie's office, they felt that was the best person to go to first. Then, they could tell her to call Nifty and Alastor to save them going to get them themselves.

Walking down the stairs again, which was easier then going up so Husk didn't complain, they reached the bottom floor and walked towards Charlie's office. Reaching it, they gave her door some sturdy knocks and waited for her to answer.

They heard faint rustling from inside and a second later the door swung open. Standing there was a very tired Charlie. She was smiling, but had big bags under her eyes and clearly had been working very hard. She must of been proud of it. For both of them, it was very satisfying to see her again. It felt, right. Although, Husk felt a bit guilty, he quickly pushed the thought out his head though; he knew Angel loved him anyway.

"Hi guys! Long time no see. Sorry I haven't made much an effort to see you two, i've been beyond busy. It's funny to see you both together actually. What's the occasion?" Charlie beamed, happy to see her fellow Hazbin employees again.

"Actually toots, about that. Could you call Nifty and Alastor over?" Angel asked Charlie awkwardly but buzzing.

Charlie's little heart had for some reason, dropped, at the name Alastor. It had been so long she'd seen him properly and the last time she saw him was when she stayed the night in his room. Slightly blushing, she nodded and pressed the button on her office table that sent a small alarm in the office rooms of Alastor and Nifty.

They came within 5 minuets, Alastor came straight away.

"Ahh Charlie dear!" Alastor practically sang. "So happy to see you again! What's the occasion?"

"That's it, I don't know yet. Husk and Angel are yet to tell us." Charlie explained, slightly confused.

"Ooo interesting, is it a secret?" Nifty asked jumping on the spot.

"If it was silly, they wouldn't be telling us." Charlie giggled, looking at the crazy, small 22 year old.

"Well, what is it then, my fellows." Alastor asked becoming agitated.

"Well...To put it bluntly I suppose...Urm...Me and Angel are...Yanno...Together." Husk revealed going very red.

"Well...I expected something, but not that." Alastor admitted. "I'm shocked actually, that's a change."

"I saw it coming. You two were bound to falling in love. Opposite attracts, you know." Charlie said, smiling up at Alastor.

"Oh my, what she does to me, she will never know."

"I suppose so, darling." Alastor agreed, blushing a little.

"That's super cool guys! Also, why do we never speak anymore. Like, i'm always so bored. I don't think we've eaten dinner together for agessss." Nifty pointed out, smiling up at everyone.

"Ay, I was thinking that. We should be together again. Like one big happy family, right Husk." Angel smiled down at Husk.

"Right Angel."
