Your Afterlife (Alastor x reader) Hazbin Hotel

Chapter 8: aftermath

Timeskip 3 hours:

For a moment, I didn't remember what happened or what was going on. But then I noticed the still existant pain in my abdomen.
I weakly grunted: "F-...fffuck!"
At least it was over now and Vox and Val had left.

I opened my eyes to see that Alastor isn't laying in his puddle of blood anymore. He had walked up to me. And he was now uncomfortably sitting in front of me, looking at me as if I had lost my mind.

My mouth dropped wide open when I realised that in the first time ever since I've met him, he failed to keep up his permanent grinning.

He shouted: "Why in the name of anything that's reasonable would you do something as stupid and disgusting like this?"

In shame, I broke eye contact, whispering: "I couldn't bear the thought of losing you."
He shrieked: "MADAM WE HAVE MET LIKE 5 DAYS AGO!"

I shouted back: "HAVE YOU PUT ME ON SOME SPELL WHEN I ACCEPTED YOUR JOB OFFER SO I WOULD BE SUBCONCIOUSLY WILLING TO DO THE MOST INSANE SHIT IN ORDER TO SAVE YOUR LIFE IF NECESSARY?"

He shouted back: "NO! BUT YOU ARE TOTALLY MENTALLY DERANGED! THAT'S THE ONLY REASON SOMEONE WOULD DO SOMETHING AS STUPID AND SELFLESS LIKE THIS."
I started crying again: "I'm sorry."

He whispered while blushing: "Could you get dressed, doll?"
I put on a new bra and I put on a nice black dress I bought recently when shopping with Angel. I was still cramping in pain.

Then, I sat next to him again.
To my surprise, he pulled me in for a loose hug. I couldn't help myself but to continue crying on the suit he was wearing.

Alastor whispered: "Whatever dumb feelings you're holding towards me, don't get yourself in trouble and unwanted sex just for me. Promise it to me, my dear. I wouldn't very much like if anything were to happen to you either. As of now... I can't protect you. As long as I'm as useless as this, you don't have to be my spy anymore. I release you off your job as of now. And don't protest. It's just for your best. You've gotten yourself in so much avoidable trouble considering how little time has passed ever since your arrival."

I stopped crying: "I promise it to you, Alastor."
He hummed: "Good girl."
He then shortly kissed me on my cheek.
I blushed heavily.
He then afterwards instantly shook his head as if he himself was wondering what the fuck he just did. And then he put on his normal forced grin again.

I shyly asked: "When it happened... did you... see everything of it?"
He replied in a disgusted tone: "Unfortunately yes! I'll never be able to get those disgusting pictures out of my head. I wish to bleach my eyes."

My heart dropped: "I'm sorry, Al."
He shruged: "You've done this for me. I'm grateful for what you've done. Even though it utterly disgusts me."

I felt very sad: "Could you stop talking all the time about how repulsive you found my naked body to look at? It's making me feel... very ashamed."

He blushed heavily: "I didn't entirely mean it like that, dear. Your body is... alright to look at I suppose. But it was disgusting to see what Vox and Val have done to you. Especially Vox. First thing I intend to do once I regain my powers is to hunt down Vox and to tear his disgustingly lewd soul apart!!"

I hugged Alastor loosely: "Thank you, Al."
Then we both fell asleep while hugging each other.

"WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED?", I heard a voice say. It was Vaggie who opened the door and entered the room. And... Charlie was standing next to her looking absolutely horrified.

Vaggie yielded her spear in my direction: "WHY IS MOST OF THE WALL OF THE WINDOW SIDE DEMOLISHED? WHY IS ALASTOR SOAKING IN BLOOD? WAS IT ALASTOR WHO WAS MOANING LAST NIGHT? You better explain it now immediately!"
Alastor, still weakened, finally jolted awake by the yelling.

I looked at Vaggie and Charlie again and I tried explaining without telling the full truth: "So uhm the Vees attacked Alastor last night because without this staff, he's weakened. So the Vees deemed it the perfect opportunity to kill off Alastor. The explosion happened cuz that was their way of making an entrance to our room. Secondly, he's soaking in blood cuz the fight of 3 Vees against 1 Alastor wasn't fair by any means so Alastor got away just barely surviving. And it was Vox who was moaning. Because he got... a hard-on by seeing his arch-nemisis being covered in blood and being so close to death like this. Any more questions?"

Vaggie and Charlie just stood there, completely shocked, their mouths wide open.

Angel ended up entering the room too:
"I heard some yelling. Is everything alrig- HOLY FUCKING SHIT?! WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED?!"
I looked away in shame: "The Vees happened."

Angel ran towards me and gave me a hug: "What exactly happened?"
I sighed: "I already just told Vaggie and Charlie. A lot... has happened last night. I don't wanna repeat it all again. But I'll give you a little summary. Vees showed up cuz Al is vulnerable without his staff. They attacked him badly. He barely just survived."

I looked at Charlie: "Charlie, Alastor is doing really bad. He's very close to dying. Can you heal him? Or do you know anything or anyone who possesses that ability?"
Charlie, still being in utter shock, replies: "I do! A bit. I can... try."

She hesitantly walks up to Alastor, she knees down and a red light emerges out of Charlie's hands and the red light whirls up all around Alastor's body.
I felt how I was scared for Alastor's life but I also had hope that Charlie would be able to help him.
