Stereo heart - A radiodust fan-horror

High enough

 Alastor had himself distracted from his own confusing thoughts by preparing something special, after all, the feeling of seeing Angel fainted and bleeding in his arms was something he absolutely did not want to feel again, ever. So he was preparing a very special, choker style collar with an even more special pendant attached to it, Alastor ran the tip of his fingers lightly over the delicate black silk that formed the collar and the beautiful golden guard that surrounded a blood red diamond shaped as a rose wich he infused with some of his power, leaving clear instructions engraved in the the stone's core, that'd be enough... He checked the delicate golden snap lock as the very last step, that wouldn't fit anyone but Angel Dust... Now all he needed was a pretty box, lace and a good excuse to give him that, after all, the last thing he'd wish was getting the wrong idea across to his brand new friend and scare him away, he just wanted to protect the spider boy, right?... It was just that... Right?...

Before Alastor could go down that rabbit hole he himself brought his thoughts back to placing the delicate piece of jewelry into the beautiful little black box, wrapping it in a light pink ribbon and tying it into a pretty bow and using a bit more of his magic to seal the box, just for safety, it was hard to craft that little accessory after all, he didn't want to risk losing it. And for the radio demon's surprise, it didn't take long for him to have a chance as Angel knocked lightly on his door, he hid the little box away and went to open the door, sharp grin getting bigger as he saw it really was Angel there, holding a demon piglet in a light blue leash, he gestured for the other demon to come inside, having cleaned both himself and the room as soon as Angel left so he and the surrounding room were presentable. He watched closely as Angel followed his instructions and sat on his bed, showing a more welcoming smile as he did.

- How may i help, my effeminate fella?

- Uhm, Al? I gotta solve some shit in the city, take nuggies out on a walk and all.. I, uhm... Can ya come with us?... Ya know...

- Of course, i did imply i'd keep an eye on you, Angel dear, in fact... I have a gift for you - Alastor states, getting a nervous smile as he conjured the black box under Angel's confused look - I'm not sure if it makes your style, mon cher, but it will keep you safe when i'm not able to protect you.

- O-Oh, Al... Ya really didn't have to... - Angel gladly takes the box, a light pink tint spreading across his cheeks as he undid the bow carefully and opened the box, revealing the choker what , in turn, made Angel's eyes go wide - ... Holy shit... Smiles, did ya just fucking... Wadda hell?... That looks more expensive than what i'd earn in... Ever!...

- It wasn't that much, please do not worry - He chimed in a amused tone, seeing angel's eyes as shiny as they were looking at the gift he had made him made his chest feel rather fuzzy again - And besides, it won't fit anyone else, it was made just for you, if you ever feel in danger, call my name and this will bring you to me.

- Who knew smiles, ya're real boyfriend material huh?... Thank yu

Angel joked, being playful and giggling lightly as he picked up the pretty choker, hell, that piece of jewelry would fit any of his outfits with no problems, even the more slutty ones, it could pass for a leather leash, hot... He put the choker on with what he was wearing and placed the box safely on his sweater's pocket, smiling even more when he realised the fit really was perfect, a comfortable choker who no one else would be able to wear and with a very fancy diamond stuck to it, just how much money did the radio demon throw at him in the form of an inconspicuous little gift?... He loved it! Gosh, if that was being friends with an overlord, he wanted to fucking marry one! Well, not any overlord, sure, after all, Val was an overlord and he was an absolute ass, marrying someone like that would be a nightmare... No, he wanted someone like Al, someone really sweet like that and that somehow still had a hint of unimaginable horror behind those perfectly gorgeous eyes... Wait, what?! What was he thinking about this absolute bore of a man?! Angel blushed like a tomato, jumping up from the bed and showing a nervous smile, no way, no fucking way he'd fall for Alastor of all people.

The radio demon watched this with an amused grin, standing up as well and offering Angel his arm like a perfect gentleman, chuckling lightly when the spider boy placed his lower right arm on his like a lady and guiding him out, that was lovely, playing bodyguard and that light warmth under his skin where Angel had his hand resting, it was sweet enough to make him pretend nothing was happening and he wasn't absolutely puzzled, to hell with that, he could figure it out later when he was alone. They were chatting about anything they could think of as they walked through the streets, the familiar feeling to that scene flooding both demons senses even tho that was the absolutely first time they ever did this, that was strange, but none of them thought about saying it out loud for fear of breaking whatever was that spell of déjà vu they were experiencing, after all, the feeling wasn't half bad...

- Hoo, holy shit! - A voice snapped in between their conversation, making both demons stare at the poor soul speaking - If it isn't the drag show--

- I'd advise you to keep your thoughts to yourself, my good fella - Alastor chimed in, keeping a smile even tho the look he had was sharp enough to cut through a wall - If you'd like to keep your tongue, that is.

- Woah, woah - Angel chimes in, placing a hand gently on Alastor's chest just in case since that smile of him looked an awful lot like a threat - Chill, smiles, it's not like it's somethin' new, i couldn't give less of a fuck about these little shits.

- Well, i'm here as your bodyguard, Angel dear... But if you don't mind it, i think i might allow this to slip...

- Oh, aren't ya a sweetheart Al? C'mon, let's get goin' before you actually kill a motherfucka'

Angel comments, dragging the radio demon along before he could actually "put on a show" and maim the idiot right there and then, not that Angel was against it, but that was too out of character for him to just let that go on, did that really happen?? Alastor, THE radio demon, got all pissy over someone cussing at him?? It wasn't even something that bad, too, was that some kind of "only i am allowed" thing? Because all the guy did was call him a drag show and Alastor kept calling him effeminate too, it was a little funny... They kept walking, went into some nice stores and eventually took Nuggets back to the hotel so the little demon piglet could rest while they went out to party and talk some more, it turns out Al could be really fun, who would've guessed it?

By the end of the day they were both laughing and having a awesome time together in a vinyl store of all places, listening to different old songs and picking up a few, there was no alcohol, no drugs, but Angel felt high as every fuck as he stood there with Alastor, heart racing, smiling and giggling like a little silly school girl every time he made one of those stupid dad jokes of his or did something charming like singing along to a song or dragging him into a little dance number for some old Louisiana jazz song, they weren't even drunk, that was... Embarrassing... But it wasn't half bad, god, Angel really had it bad... Was he even really falling in love? It felt funnily familiar, after all, he was a teen in the 30's, that was very much his buzz back then. It was somewhere past midnight when they arrived at the hotel, still having a nice chat and making little jokes to each other and being met by Charlie's worried look.

- Oh, Charlie dear! - Alastor started, keeping that big, happy smile he had on - What a delightful evening~ I bet you'd enjoy some sleep, mon cher, good night!

- ... Oh... - Charlie started, watching Alastor rush upstairs for his room and giggling a bit - You two had fun out today? He seems happier than usual...

- Yea... - Angel let out a light sight, god, it actually felt like he was high off his shoes, damn it - ... It was fun, i guess, night sugar, i'mma pass out.

- Oh, night Angel - Charlie giggled while Angel went upstairs, that was... Kind of sweet, seeing those two go so well together - Sweet dreams, tell Al i said good night!

- Oh Satan... I'm better not be fallin' for that strawberry pimp.
