Chapter 18 - Blackjack

(Word Count: 1014)

Husk and Valentino agree to a few games of blackjack. If Husk wins he gets Angel's soul but if Valentino wins Husk will have to do some appearances in Valentino's videos/films. Valentino is very confident but Husk on the other hand is very rusty and nervous.

They both start to play with Velvette being in charge of shuffling the cards, and recording the game.... Husk tries to count the cards but fucks up his counting a few times and he loses a few times but also wins. Valentino was really confident and didn't seem to have any doubt but soon they were left with one more game to determine who would win.

Husk excuses himself to the bathroom and looks into the bathroom mirror and begins talking to himself.

Husk: *sighs and looks down* "Husk you have to do this. You can't lose. This is for your boyfriend" *freezes and goes red and looks up and then whispers* "boyfriend? God Husk" *face-palms* "should've asked Angel if we are like officially together or not"

*Husk looks into the mirror and starts to breathe heavily and puts his hands towards his throat to make the green chain and collar to appear. Husk then tugs at the chain in hopes Alastor would come*

Alastor: *appears behind him smiling like always* "oh Husker what made you so desperate to call me here-"

Husk: *sighs* "I need your help. I have one last game winner wins the bet. I need to win."

Alastor: *tilts head* "and why should I help you?"

Husk: "because if I lose I have to be in some porn shit"

Alastor: *chuckles* "is that really all Val wanted from you?"

Husk: *shrugs* "not like I have much to begin to offer nowadays and knowing him he probably just wants to find a way to get me into a contract"

Alastor: *chuckles* "so this effects me how?"

Husk: *rolls his eyes* "do you really want to share me?"

Alastor: *thinks for a few seconds* "fine I'll help but you will owe me more than you already do"

Husk: *nods* "yeye. So we doing what we used to do"

Alastor: *nods* "no point in trying to fix what's not broken"

Husk: *nods* "okay then a garaunteed win is all I need."

Alastor: *tilts head* "you would win Angels soul. yes?"

Husk: *squints eyes* "yes..."

Alastor: *chuckles* "well when you win I'd like to have his soul. I can garauntee I'd be better than Valentino."

Husk: *growls* "no."

Alastor: *shrugs* "so I guess you don't want help?"

Husk: *looks away then sighs and looks back at Alastor* "what if I just agree that no matter what, assuming you don't sell it or some shit, you'd own my soul. Since technically currently you only own me until I pay my debt."

Alastor: *smiles* "I'm okay with that" *puts his hand out for a handshake*

Husk sighs but shakes it. He can feel the collar on his neck tighten and he starts to feel slightly light headed. Alastor then nods before disappearing and Husk walks out the bathroom and goes back to the blackjack game. When the cards are put out Valentino gets a 20 so Husk has to either get 21 to win or 20 to try and tie it. Husk sighs and flips his cards and gets 21. Valentino gets mad and flips the table. Velvette laughs and films everything. Husk smirks.

Husk: *smirking* "now can I please have Angel's soul~"

Valentino: *shouting* "you cheated! Cheated!"

Velvette: *giggles* "a deal is a deal Val. Give Husky that hookers soul"

Husk: *smirks* "yea Val~"

Valentino: *reluctantly gets Angel's contract and gives it to Husk* "fuck you. I will get this back"

Husk: *happily takes it* "no you won't."

Husk leaves but before he does Velvette gives him her updated phone number incase he wanted to catch up. Husk is making is way back to the hotel then Alastor just teleports him to the hotel. Smiling like always but Husk feels tired just by being around him. Alastor laughs before just leaving Husk in the main room of the hotel. Angel then enters the main room and spots Husk and motions for him to go to his room.

Angel goes to Husk's room and Husk follows behind curious what's this about. He steps in and immediately notices how clean everything is and Angel closes and locks the door behind him.

Husk: *looks around* "please tell me you didn't let Niffty in here"

Angel: *chuckles* "no no don't worry. I did it~ you seemed so stressed so I wanted to help clean this place up"

Husk: *smiles* "well I have a surprise" *sits Angel down*

Angel: *smirks* "oooo I like surprises"

Husk: *smiles widely* "well I went to the Vees studio and I was able to get this" *shows Angel the contract where he signed Anthony* "kinda disappointed you never told me your real name~"

Angel: *eyes goes wide and he tears up slightly and immediately hugs and kisses Husk* "oh my God"

Husk: *chuckles. Then he hugs and kisses back* "yea so currently I own your soul. So I guess all I have to do is just make a deal with you and you can have it back~"

Angel: *chuckles* "does that mean you can do the chain thing?"

Husk: *shrugs and puts his hand up and pulls and suddenly a golden chain and collar thing appears and Angel is pulled close to Husk* "oh fuck sorry"

Angel: *chuckles* "dang that's hot~" *winks*

Husk: *goes red and scratch behind his head* "I suppose"

Angel: *puts his forehead against Husk* "well I guess I owe you~ and since you own me~"

Husk: *chuckles nervously* "I just want to give it back"

Angel: *fake pouts* "fine..... i have a deal for you~ I will pleasure you all night~ and you will give me my soul~"

Husk: *goes extremely red* "uh.... You don't have to do that"

Angel: *kisses Husk* "I want to~"

Husk chuckles and nods they shake hands. Angel leads Husk to his bed and tells Husk to lay.
