After eating, Al goes with Charlie and Vaggie to discuss a new project of Charlie's, while I stay at Husk's bar with Angel.

"Do you spend all day here drinking?"

An: "What else should we do?"

"I don't know? A walk? A trip downtown? When was the last time you went out?"

An: "Months ago?"

"That's so sad! Why don't you call Cherry and go out?"

An: "Good idea! Let's go Husky!"
He says, pulling him by the arm.

H: "And what the hell do I have to do with it?!"

An: "You have to be wherever I go!"
He says, closing the door.
I hear footsteps behind me, so I turn in that direction but see no one.
It can't be them... I hope.
Then from behind, I hear a "boo!"

"Ahhhh! NIFTY!"

N: "Hahahahhah! You fell for it!"

C: "What's going on?!"

"Nifty scared the crap out of me!"

A: "Nifty, you know that's not how you behave.."

N: "Sorry, Al! I won't do it again, promise!"
She says, returning to cleaning.

"Can I come see the project with you guys?"

C: "Sure!"
She says, taking my hand and dragging me to Al's office.
The afternoon practically passes in Al's office working on this project which, in my opinion, is amazing.
We wanted to finish it as soon as possible, which is why we didn't stop working on it all evening.
When we realized we were exhausted enough, we decided to go eat, at the break of 11:10 PM.
After dinner, we went to our rooms, Charlie was sleeping standing up.
I lie down on the bed on my stomach to read when I hear a knock.

"Who is it?"

A: "Someone"

"I don't know anyone named 'Someone'!"
I say sarcastically.
Then I go to open the door.
I lean against the doorframe.

"Want to read?"
He nods in response.

"Come on.."
I say, letting him in and then closing the door.
We lie down on the bed in the same position as before.
We continue for hours, until I get tired and hand him the book.

"Here you go"
I say, handing it to him.

A: "Why?"

"I'm sleepy"
I say, burying my face in the pillow.

Alastor POV

I continue to read alone, but strangely it's not as interesting as before, maybe I'm getting sleepy too.
I look at her for a moment and fix a stray hair, she's sleeping soundly.
I close the book and lie down next to her, trying to fall asleep.

?? POV

1p: "In the meantime, we need more people, so let's split up and find someone more competent than these sluts."

2p: "We'll meet back here."
He says before leaving.
Alright, now.
Where do I find competent people in hell?
I have some goons I could pay.
But then I have another problem.

The girl, she shoots fire.
We'll need at least an angelic rope.
Just need to figure out where to find it.
(They're not sinners, they're succubi, just to clarify)

I'll ask around on other days if there aren't any here in Pride.

T/n POV

I wake up, I don't know what time it is, but it seems like it's night, I tap the phone to turn it on and indeed it's 4:00 AM.
I have a strange feeling, like something is about to happen.
I won't ignore this feeling, but for now, it's better to sleep.
