His Listening Ear [A HuskerDust Story]

Comfort

[angels pov]

The turf war had long since ended , myself and cherri winning once again , and had retreated to cherries flat for a well deserved victory shot or two. Whist we fought I went deep into everything concerning husk and what had been happening between us , cherri listening in with interest.

Sitting down on her battered old red sofa , I downed my seventh shot , grinning as she cheered. Placing the cup down I stretched all 4 arms.

"Fuck me . You're the best cherri." My grin only grew as I spoke , flicking my hair back into its natural pointed placement. She just laughed in response, flopping down next to me as she pulled her phone out and started scrolling through it.

A comfortable silence followed for several minutes before she spoke.

"So , what you gonna do with  this husk guy?" Turning to look at me she placed her phone down , her singular eye staring me down.

"What do you mean?" I frowned, confused.

"You can't keep arguing like this if ya want a healthy relationship mate , and from what you're telling me , he's only keeping quiet because he wants to protect you from Val. It's pretty obvious he adores you , Ange , but I think you ain't seeing that."

Placing her hand on my shoulder I felt her squeeze reassuringly, smiling towards me. I sighed heavily and crossed my lower arms.

"I just.. the last time I felt this deeply I sold my soul to them!" I spoke with an exhausted tone in my voice , throwing my hands up helplessly.

"Well.. at least this guy ain't taking ya soul!" She grinned , hoping a joke could cheer me up.

"I messed up , didn't I" biting my lip my head filled with his eyes and the shock and hurt that filled them.

"Oh fuck yeh , bitch. But I have a feeling this dork will forgive you. He might not say it but that dipshit loves ya." She smirked , punching my arm lightly as she teased me.

"Go home and talk to him. Listen to his reasoning , ange. I want this to work for ya"

Smiling at her comforting words I stood up , and stated my goodbyes , promising I'd text her once I got home.

Now I was wondering down the street , husks pained eyes filling my mind once Again. I hurt him bad , yet he still puts up with me.

All he wanted to do today was spend time with me and I had to go and be a brat...
