The night was long but not as long as the morning after. Vaggie woke up half on the bed and half off. She squinted at the bright lights dancing above her eye. Her pupil refusing to focus. Eventually it did and she could make out Angels ceiling.
"Oh good ya are alive" Angels voice spoke out. Vaggie tilted her head to look over at the bathroom door. Angel stood by it, already dressed in his casual sweater that hung off his shoulder and a pair of red cherry shorts. The color so bright it made her close her eye. He chuckled at her pain. Heading back into the bathroom to finish brushing his teeth.
Eventually Vaggie forced herself up. She changed and brushed her teeth, getting rid of the stale alcohol taste in her mouth. As she squinted in the bathroom Angel gave her a pair of Heart shaped sun glasses. The pink item matched his red ones he already wore. "Lights are a bitch but it gets better in a few hours" he reasoned. She didn't believe him. He threw on some tall socks to go over his feet and knees. While she put on her usual outfit in the washroom.
Once dressed Angel took in a deep breath. "Augh the worst part, apologize" he snarled at the idea. He headed out of the room and Vaggie fallowed him. She looked around, barely seeing the dim hall with the sunglasses on. She knew he lied about the lights. Nothing could be brighter then Angels room with his makeup lights.
They came down the stairs to the main floor. Charlie was the first thing they saw. Vaggie Tensed at the sight of her girlfriend situated at the bar, writing out lesson plans. The ex angel moved her hand over the side of the sun glasses and headed for the lobby, narrowly missing the radio demon that appeared suddenly by the door frame. His eyes fallowing her as she headed for the couch and flopped down on it. She waited for him to come bug her but when it took longer then an instant she raised her head up.
Spotting him still at the entrance of the lobby. He head turned away from her. Watching Angel make his way to the bar. His steps a little uneven where his vision was impaired by the sun glasses and hang over. He sat down beside Charlie. Stretching his elbows on the bar. His other hands folding in his lap.
"Hey Charlie" he began. Charlie dropped her pen and looked up at him, her grin beaming brighter then the lights around the hotel. "Damn woman ya got sunshine in yer mouth" Angel looked away, his sights landing on the man watching him. Once the spiders body tensed with recognition, Alastor turned away to bother Vaggie.
"Oh thank you Angel thank you" Charlie spoke almost ear splitting to him. His head pounding with his head ache. "Yeah sure. Uh listen about yesterday. I get I said some shitty thing's and well. I'm sorry" he gritted out. Charlie gasped loudly and he tried not to cringe with his hang over. "Oh angel that's wonderful. Of course I accept. I-I'm sorry I made you feel unsafe here. A-and I want to um ask something" the princess turned in her seat and puffed out her cheeks as she waited.
"Ok" Angel spoke cautiously. "I want you to talk to me. When you have concerns and worries. When you need help. I'm more then just the owner here. I'm your friend and your mine. Whenever you need a friend I will be here for you. And maybe together we can avoid situations like what happened" Charlie reached over to touch Angels bare hand. He moved his hand away from her and slipped out of his seat. Creating distance.
"Ah yeah sure. I'll remember that. Thanks" he moved his bottom hands behind his back. The other set finding his hip and sunglasses to push them up his face. "Ah o-ok. Um... so how's Vaggie. Ah Husk said she's staying with you right now" Charlie asked as she looked anywhere but Angel. The demon smiled at the question. "Why don' ya ask her ya self. Seems someone else needs ta apologize, ta her ex girlfriend anyway" Angel set his hand on his other hip and took a step to walk away. Charlies face paled. Her breathing hitching in her throat as he eyes widened in fear.
