Why Did You Have To Choose Me Again? (HuskerDust)

chapter 11: keeping my mouth shut

Angel Dust's pov:

As my eyes decided to open, letting me see only a slight piece of light coming from the window, I felt something hard around my waist and on my chest.

I could barely see something. I'm so tired from yesterday that I can sleep for 2 more days. Unfortunately, I can't. Because now I have to work for Valentino about 3 three times a week, and I can't allow what happened yesterday morning to happen again. So I need to wake up just in case that Moth shitass thing decides to call me.

Once I could see everything and not feel like I was blind I noticed a hand around my waist ? AND HUSK'S HEAD ON MY CHEST? there's just no way -

Someone kill me, I beg you.

Why, out of all times, he decides to be clingy and shit when I'm at risk of dying if I dare to say one word to him?

Ok... let's think this through. Again. How can I get up without waking him up?

I can't.

But I need to get up. I can't believe this shit is happening to me. I took a deep breath, then prayed he won't speak to me if I woke him. After that I got up from the bed watching his head fall from my chest and bouncing on the mattress shocking him and making his eyes open.

"Oh my - you scared me!" He said while looking at me with his small sad eyes. I don't know what to say. And even I knew I couldn't speak, so I decided to brush it off and pretend he wasn't there. I went to the bathroom door, and just when I tried to open it, he spoke again.

"Hello? Can't you hear me ?" Kill me. Unfortunately, I can. I feel so bad... I opened the door and got in the bathroom while giving him a quick look just to see he made an annoyed gesture.

What am I gonna do? I can't ignore him for the rest of my life! God, I hate my damn life so much.

After I finished my job in the bathroom, I took a quick look at myself in the mirror. The huge scar on my face evolved even worse. I should at least clean it or something. I tried to put some wadding with some antiseptic liquid. I thought about putting some band-aids, but the cut was too big for them, so I'll have to leave it open. I tried to clean my fur from the dried blood when I heard knocking on the door.

"Angel, you good in there?" I heard Husk say on a panicked tone. He must've seen the scar on my face and the bruises on my body. Otherwise, I don't see a reason to ask if I'm ok.

"Look, I don't know what you doin' in there so much, but your phone was ringing like wild for the past 5 minutes." He said. Shit. My phone.

"Angel?? Come on, man, why are you ignoring me ? I saw how you looked at me when you entered the bathroom!" Please stop. I'm begging. How am I gonna get out if he's at the door?

"Fine! Don't talk to me! If that's what you want!" He said while pretending to sound mad. I'm sorry, but that line was as fake as my acting skills around Valentino. At least I heard him leave. Once I finished cleaning my fur and hid some of my bruises, I left the bathroom rushing for my phone.

Oh dear God... I might end up dead, and I didn't even talk to Husk yet..

109 missed calls from Valentino. How in the actual hell did he manage to call me 109 times in 10 minutes? I don't know. I grabbed my phone from the nightstand and called him back as fast as possible. He answered in 2.3 seconds, I swear.

"Finally!? I genuinely thought you were dead, darlin' "

"No.. I- I was at the bathroom.."

"Hm. Quite a long time spent in the bathroom, don't you think?" Yeah, I wonder why
