A few months went by. Anthony and Husk were in the casino together with Fat Nuggets. It was a slow day so Husk and Anthony were playing a friendly game of poker since the cat demon finished his work and any work he was supposed to do later, early. Fat Nuggets was sleeping in his office on the couch.
Anthony phone ran as he discarded another card. He pressed a button and put it to his ear.
"Cha-ly?" He asked. Husk raised an eyebrow as he picked up his next card and put down a set of kings before he discarded.
Anthony picked up his card as Charlie spoke.
"Mhm, she is?! Thats great! Thanks for letting me know!" He cheered. "Yeah! Of course! I'll ask Husky if he wants to. Yeah?! Okay, bye!" Anthony hung up and put the phone in his pocket.
Anthony put a set of aces down and discarded. Husk spoke breaking the silence.
"What was that about?" He asked as he lifted another card from the deck.
"Oh, Molly is back in Heaven, a little bummed I didn't get the chance to ask her about Cherri and how she died. The hotel is throwing a party for her. Charlie was wondering if we wanted to come."
Husk nodded. "That's your sister of course we're going." He stated. He put down a run from queen to 8 in the same suit. "When?"
"Later tonight." Anthony answered.
After Husk's shift ended Anthony and Husk wandered into his office. Husk double check that he did indeed do everything he needed to. Anthony gently woke up Fat Nuggets and lifted him into his shoulder where he fell back to sleep in his father's arms.
The walked up the flight of stairs outside and into Husk's apartment. Anthony sat Fat Nuggets on the ground and he went right to his food bowl.
The spider and the winged Cat demon walked into their room and started to get dressed. Charlie said not to wear black since they knew she was just in heaven. She said Emily came down and took her back so she didn't even die again.
Anthony wore a long almost gold dress with sparkles. He did very subtle makeup, Husk wore a suit and looked for a tie or a bowtie that matched his boyfriend's dress. It took him awhile but, he did find one. Anthony put on his boots and the two of them wandered out of the bedroom once they are dressed. Anthoy grabbed Fat Nuggets leash and lifted the pig again who already finished eating. The trio left the apartment and got into Husk's car.
Anthony didn't clip the leash to his pets collar until they got to the hotel. He took it off when they got inside.
Charlie immediately greeted them with a tight hug. It's been a while, Anthony did keep his promises about Friday's up until he murdered his father. He didn't want to say something, and make Charlie look at him like his mother would have.
"Hey princess." Husk greeted.
Leith was tending the bar now apparently. Probably better at it than Vaggie, who was back to visiting on and off but, she was here for the party. Anthony shoved her and she shoved him back harder so, he pushed her over but was careful not to actually hurt her.
"It's good to see ya Vagina."
She rolled her eyes. "You know, you were growing on me til, you said that." She stated.
He chuckled. "Yeah? Just cause I'm an asshole, don't me I don't miss ya." Anthony admitted.
Husk wandered over to the bar. Anthony followed him.
"Hey! It's my favorite bartender, and his boyfriend!" Leith was desperately trying to get out of this. He didn't know why he volunteered to be the bartender and least Vaggie's drinks were drinkable.
Husk and Anthony shared a look. The cat demon looked back at Leith and motioned for him to leave. "Alright, asshole."
Leith wandered out from behind the bar and Husk wandered behind it.
"Whatcha want?" He asked.
As if on cue the entirety of the hotel lined up at the bar. Anthony giggled.
"Looks like dey missed you lots, bay-bee." Anthony stated.
Husk whipped up something special for him. Strawberry and cream liquor, chocolate Vodka and a splash of rumchata. (All you people asking for Angel's Lust better be happy now)
Leith just asked for a Jack Daniel's, Charlie wanted her usual cocktail that apparently nobody else made correctly even though it was the easiest thing ever. Vaggie asked for a shot of tequila. The other sinners at the hotel finished off the bottle of Jack that he poured Leith's drink from.
"So how have you guys been?" Charlie asked.
Husk looked at Anthony with an all knowing look. The spider sighed as his boyfriend chuckled.
Anthony sipped his drink and turned the barstool to face her.
"Well I killed my dad a month ago, Valentino's not been a problem though we did see him a couple times." Everyone gasped at the second part.
Leith downed his drink before he spoke.
"HOW THE FUCK IS THAT PRICK ALIVE?!" He exclaimed.
"I guess the Angelic bat wasn't enough." Husk said laughing at the memory from that night.
Leith nodded. "Well, Charlie's not let me eat someone since Alastor, so if he does bother you. Hit a brother up! I'm begging you!"
Charlie slapped his shoulder. "EATING PEOPLE DOESN'T SOLVE THE WORLD'S PROBLEMS!"
"No, but it solved hell's problems, didn't it? What do you think I did on extermination day?! I fuckin ate those Exorcists! Just like I ate Sir Smiles a Lot."
Husk chuckled and shook his head. He poured himself a glass of whiskey. Charlie face palmed. She started wondering if Leith could even be redeemed at this point.
"I'll let ya know." Anthony assured. He had Leith on speed dial anyway. He had Charlie on speed dial too.
Charlie wandered off into the kitchen to take the cake out of the fridge. Everyone piled around her. It was a vanilla cake with chocolate frosting and blue borders and writing that said: 'Congradulations Molly!'
She cut the cake and made sure everyone got a piece before getting a slice for herself.
Anthony held his plate of cake in one hand and wrapped another around Charlie's shoulders.
"Thanks, for uh.... Gettin' her back there." He said.
She smiled and Carefully hugged him without dropping her cake or his.
