Alastor looked up from his pillow which he had just been staring at for about an hour, he looked over to his clock,8:32. He slowly got out of his bed, walking into the bathroom and taking a good look at himself in the mirror, he was a mess. His hair was messy and ruffled up, his bowtie was crooked and his signature smile which he usually wore so well was now nothing more than a frown. He brushed his hair and took a deep breath, putting on his biggest smile. He summoned his staff and marched out of the room, he spun his staff and teleported into the lobby.
Everyone looked up in surprise at his sudden arrival,
"Hello darlings! Mind if I ask if any of you have seen Angel? I've got... A bet! A bet we need to settle!" Alastor said walking up to the worried staff. The all looked at him confused,
"Well someone's brightened up..." Husk said suspiciously, staring him up and down, booze in hand. Vaggie sighed,
"Uhh, yeah... He's up in his room, no one can get him out though, he had a huge outburst when he came home beat up as fuck." Vaggie said, pointing to the stairs. Alastor eyes shot open and went wide, the noise must have been Angel, how could he have been so stupid!
"Thank you darling, I do not care if he isn't letting anyone in this is an important matter! Thank you for your help!" He said exctaticly, spinning round and tapping his staff on the ground, teleporting away. The staff looked at eachother confused and worried, how was this going to play out...Angel remained in his bathroom, he had been there for a little while now, contemplating whether he should take the pills he was holding. He knew they were the strongest in hell, Valentino had given them to him, because no matter how many drugs Valentino gave him to ease the pain he was still just weak... Angel looked up, the mirror reflected him on the floor. He had his back against the wall and still wore the same bloody outfit as before, he had bags under his eyes and a large bruise on his face. He scoffed at his ugly reflection, why did he have to be so weak?! But before his thoughts could get the better of him there was a knock on the bathroom door.
Alastor teleported inside of Angels room and found no one, a pink light shine from the crack of Angels bathroom door, bingo. He walked over to the door, almost tripping over fat nuggets who oinked and tried to bite Alastor, he pushed the pig aside, knocking gently on the door. Shuffling could be heard from the other side. Angel stood up and walked over to the door, he pressed himself against it and took a deep shaky breath,
"Angel... It's me?" Alastor said hesitantly, jiggling the door knob. He heard Angel sigh and gulp,
"What do ya want... Here ta tell me how embarrassing I am..?" He replied. Alastor sighed and put a hand to his face,
"Angel please... Listen to me! I want to apologize."Angel stopped, he thought for a moment, he looked over at the bottle of pills that lay on the floor. He slowly opened the door and stared at Alastor, scared of what he was going to do next. Alastor smiled and hugged Angel, not letting go. Angel stood there frozen for a moment, before slowly hugging Alastor back, shutting his eyes tight. Alastor pulled away from Angel and looked him in the eye, he led him to the bed,
"Smile dear, your smile is so pretty..." He said, wiping a tear from Angels eye. Angel looked up at Alastor and laughed slightly,
"Why do ya always say that?" Angel asked, smiling awkwardly.
"Because it is true! Don't tell me it isn't because I completely disagree, you are the most beautiful being in hell, but when you smile... You become the most beautiful thing in all of heaven, hell and beyond." Alastor didn't even hesitate saying, holding Angels cheek.Angels eyes widened at the response, did Alastor really think that much of him? He smiled at Alastor, laughing at his cheesy response. Angel stopped when Alastor moved closer to him, holding both of hands.
"Angel... I am so sorry for what I said. I didn't mean it... You are the best thing that's ever happened to me. I don't want this to end, not ever. It's fine if you want to tell the others." He said, making unbreaking eye contact with Angel. Angel smiled and thought for a moment, he nodded as if he had come to a decision,
"I don't even need ta think, of course I forgive ya after that cheesy speech!" Angel said hugging his boyfriend, chuckling. Alastor blushed and hugged his boyfriend back.
"And I did accuse you a bit so the whole argument isn't fully on you... And about the others, it's fine, I want ya to be ready so maybe we can tell them later." Angel said, giving Alastor a small peck on the cheek, turning him red.Alastor nodded and stood up, Angel looked at him confused but realised what he was doing when he stood Angel up and stared him up and down,
"Don't ya do the whole check up on me thing, it's fine." Angel tried to stop Alastor but he was having none of it. He took of Angels shirt and Angel tried to get his persona back, he grinned at Alastor who was placing his hands on Angels chest, giving of a soft red glow,
"Oohh, the radio demon wanna try something out with me..." Angel tried to undo Alastor's bowtie, Alastor slapped his hand away. He layed Angel down,
"Please Angel, don't be difficult. I just want to help." He said, Angel felt a warm tingling sensation all over his body as he began glowing too, he scoffed,
"Fineeeeee." He said in defeat, there was no changing the man's mind anyway.Angel felt much better and less tired, he thanked Alastor and kissed him as a thank you. Alastor blushed,
"W-well... We better go downstairs! The others are worried sick about you!" Alastor said, trying his best not to seem flustered. Angel groaned and rolled his eyes, opening the door. Alastor smiled and left the room, kissing Angels hand like a gentlemen and making him laugh.Angel was laughing when he came down the stairs, Alastor by his side. They all looked over in shock, how did he do it? Charlie ran up to Angel and hugged him,
"Angel! You're alright! I was so worried! Are you okay?" Charlie said, not letting go. Angel awkwardly patted Charlie's back and then pushed her off gently,
"Uhh- yeah. I'm good, fucking great, deer daddy helped me~" Angel laughed looking over to Alastor, trying to get back into character. Alastor blushed slightly but scoffed at Angel, an awkward smile on his face. Charlie chuckled at the fact that he was back to normal, yet she was still not completely sure. Angel walked over to Vaggie and annoyed her, getting a grunt from Vaggie who had now seen normal Angel back and didn't care anymore.Angel and Alastor sat down on the couch and turned on a film, which everyone just decided to watch together, Vaggie and Charlie cuddled up next to eachother. Nifty jumped onto Husks lap making him blush a little, and while Angel and Alastor seemed to be doing there own things they were secretly holding hands. Only Husk saw this though and gave Angel a grin making Angel blush in embarrassment, he giggled softly and Husk chuckled, going back to the movie.
By the end of the movie Charlie was crying about how cute the couple on TV was and Vaggie was comforting her. Nifty was begging for another movie and Husk held her energetic body cautiously, hoping she wouldn't explode. Angel and Alastor remained on the couch watching this, still holding hands. Angel suddenly grinned mischievously and leaned in to Alastor's ear. Alastor looked at him wondering what the hell he was doing, Angel then whispered into his ear,
"Hey baby~ I dont know bout choo but that movie got me a little... In the mood~" Angel said suductively to Alastor. Despite living this demon Alastor sometimes hated the spider for his... Sexual... Tendancies. He blushed slightly and pushed Angel away,
"Totally inappropriate Angel!" He said in a dramatic manner, Angel laughed and the other staff laughed silently at the spiders confidence and slight stupidity. They were surprised though as Alastor hadn't ripped him up yet.The two bickered for a while and Angel continued to tease with Alastor which he was having none of. Alastor stood up and dusted him self off, he bid goodbye to his friends, well... All but Angel which he gave an annoyed look. Everyone said goodbye and laughed a little bit at Angels attempts before going back to their conversations. Angel looked over at the doorway Alastor was thought to have exited. Alastor was just about to leave the room and turned around slowly, sensing eyes on him. He saw Angel and grinned, blowing him a kiss before leaving the room. Angel blushed heavily and smiled, that little bastard! He lived that little bastard but still!
