A few hours had passed, but it was time for me to get up and head to the bar. I started getting ready trying not to wake Angel.

"Where are you going?"- he asked me in a sleepy voice

"It's 8 in the morning, I have to go and start the bar" - I replied, fixing my bow tie and hat and walking towards the door

"At least you can say a proper good morning to me" – he grumbled

I walked back to the bed and bent down to give him a kiss on the forehead, I was about to leave, but he grabbed me by the straps and pulled me towards him, kissing me on the lips, I kissed him back

"Can't you really stay with me a little longer?"- he asked sadly

"No Angel, I'm sorry, I really have to go now" - I said in a sweet voice, leaving the room without anyone noticing me

I went down to the ground floor and started setting up the bar, so that it would be ready and running when the others woke up. At least a couple of hours passed before the room started to fill:

"Good morning Husk!"- Charlie greeted me with more enthusiasm than usual

"Good morning" – said Vaggie – "I need a drink"

"What's the problem, beauties?"- I asked curiously, seeing them look strange

Vaggie sighed, trying to answer me, but was interrupted by the princess -"WE GOT ANOTHER TALK WITH HEAVEN!"

"What? Why?"- I asked her -"Wasn't what we just went through enough for you? Why turning the knife in the wound?"

"Thanks Husk, that's exactly my point..Charlie you should cancel" – Vaggie felt comforted

"What? Come on guys... it's not over. We have rebuilt the hotel, we cannot abandon the project" - Charlie tried to defend her idea

"We're not saying that..."- the fallen angel tried to console her

"No, that's exactly what I'm saying."- I interrupted her, taking a sip of liquor

"Shut up" - he glared at me - "What I mean Charlie is that heaven is not willing to help us, we can't rely on them"

"But Emily was so kind...she wants to help us!"- the princess was shocked by our firmness

"Even if she had been before, now that we've killed the first fucking man, she won't be anymore" - I tried to reason with her in a tone that was perhaps a little too arrogant.

"You guys don't understand, there is still hope, please believe in me!" - Charlie told us in a firm tone

"What are you discussing about?"- it was Angel

"Charlie wants us to be attack again" – Nifty replied, coming out from behind the sofa

"What the fuck... how long have you been listening to us?" - Vaggie asked annoyed

"What do you mean 'she wants us to be attack again'?"- he asked confused

"She wants to have another conversation with heaven" – I explained to him

Charlie interrupted me turning to Angel: "I have to convince them to let you go to heaven...we can't give up, you're with me Angel right?"- she looked at him with her two big sad eyes

"It's bullshit" - he said sitting down - "There's no hope for someone like me, accept it Charlie and in any case angels are dickheads... no offense Vagina"

Vagatha looked at him with folded arms, nervous: "Fuck you"

"I don't care what you say, soon the portal to heaven will open and MY GIRLFRIEND AND I will go talk to the seraphim about the situation" - Charlie cut off the conversation a few seconds before the portal appeared in the middle of the room.

The princess jumped in without thinking twice, taking Vaggie with her, without giving her a choice.

"What the fuck" – Angel commented in the silence
