Stuck in The Past A Huskerdust story

Chapter 8: A MONTH!!!??

Angels POV

Me and Husk head back into the room and I smirk softly at him grumbling at Mari poking fun at us hugging. When we go back in our attention is drawn to an envelope on the table labeled 'To: Angel and Husk From: Charlie :)' We look at the letter curiously and I open it up and I read it. It says "Dear Angel and Husk, So! I have...news! Take it as you will, good or bad, you're staying for the next month! Yay! Okay love you bye! -Your Favorite Princess, Charlie <3" Husk snatches the paper from me and he squints aggressively to try and read it...reminds me of Val, in a funny way. He suddenly gets mad and he rips it up. "A MONTH?! A FUCKING MONTH WITH THAT?!" Husk yells and points to the Hot Husk.

"Oh c'mon Husky, it's not a big deal, I mean, at least we're not in the middle of nowhere and we have a free place to stay." I say and put a hand on his shoulder to cheer him up. Husk groans and runs a hand over his face.

"That little shit is gonna pull something..." He says and glares at Mari who has a mischievous look on her face.

"Whaaaat? Nuh-uh." She says and sassily puts her hands on her hips.

"THE FUCK YOU MEAN NUH-UH-" Husk shouts and I just laugh along with the Overlord.

"Okay, let me just take you two to a room." Hot Husk offers and gets up.

"Two separate rooms." Husk adds and glares.

"Let me take Angel to a room, I need to find him some clothes anyways that he can wear." Mari says and gestures to me to follow her. I look at Husk, he just sighs and nods for me to follow her and I smile at him and follow her. She takes me down a hall and to a door that has a sign that says 'Mari's Room Fuck Off' and he opens it. I hesitate to follow, then she speaks up. "I have some thrifted clothes that are too big on me, I can also ask Husky for some cash to take you shopping next week. You should be okay. She says and goes to a closet and brings out a box. I go in and I sit next to her on the floor as she opens the box and brings out some clothes and we go through the clothes and make some small talk.

Turns out Mari was found by Husk on the streets because she was an orphan, she tried to pickpocket him though, but the entire thing is still sweet. Although I feel a bit bad for her because it seems rough on the streets when she was homeless. She also apparently bleached her hair because she was bored one day with Husk and it just stuck.

After a while we finally finish sorting through the clothes and I start to pile them and start getting ready for her to take me to a room. She goes over to her bathroom and brings out a bottle of what looks to be perfume.

It looks hella suspicious because it has the tag ripped off and it's just a plain dark green glass bottle with one of those fancy pump things you see in movies and shows.

"I wanna give this perfume to ya, I didn't really like it, but you might. And Husk likes it, and might charm him." I blush a bit when she says that.

"W-Why would I want to charm Husk?" I ask, sounding more flustered than intended. She just gives me a look and smirks.

"C'mon, the room is this way." She says and grabs some clothes and walks out. I followed soon after her. She brings me to a room and opens the door.

It's decently sized with a big window and some curtains that has a beautiful view of Hell. I stare at it for a second and wonder how Hell can look so pretty. We go and start to put the clothes away in a dresser and she speaks up.

"So...you like Husk, don't you." She states, not even asking, which, rude. She can't read me like an open book and doesn't even bother to look unfazed.

"Pfft- What? No! Sir Grumpy, Meow Meow??" I say, trying to avoid the question.

"Don't even try hiding it from me, you look at him and a lovesick kid waiting a porno."

I burst out laughing at her comparison and I run a hand through my hair.

"Damn, I'm that obvious?"

"Yep." She says unapologetically. "But, just wear that perfume around him and he'll fall for any of your charms. Just, put it on away from me and my room."

"Why?" I ask with a raised eyebrow.

"Because I said I don't like it, dumbass. You ask too many questions."

"Fair." I say with a smile and we continue to put away my clothes in the dresser.

After a while we finish, she goes out to grab the Husks and I grab the perfume that she left on top of the dresser and I spray it on. I smell the air but don't smell anything. I shrug and walk back out and start looking around for the Husks.
