When you got back to the hotel, Alastor practically tossed Husk onto the floor like he was covered in something foul. Alastor's nose was scrunched up and his eyes had returned back to normal.

"Why was there a bar fight?" Alastor spat at Husk.

"This shitface Trevor was hitting on (y/n). I had to beat him up!" Husk stood up and brushed himself off.

"What did he say to her," Alastor grabbed Husk by the fur on his chest on got in his face.

You ran over and stood between the two demons.

"Al, I'm fine! He was just saying I was hot and said he liked that I was feisty. He was just being a dick," You grabbed the lapels of his coat and pushed your back against Husk to separate them.

Alastor let go of the beaten up cat and turned his attention to you.

"He was just protecting you?" Alastor grabbed you shoulders and looked at your body for any signs of damage.

"He was, Al, I'm fine," you assured him. Alastor relaxed and you let go of him. Husk had backed up a few paces and was beginning to turn to walk to the check-in.

You spun around on your heel to face him.

"Thank you, Husk," you walked over to him and gave him a hug.

What you didn't see was Alastor behind you getting uncomfortable. He obviously wasn't a fan of you hugging the cat.

You stepped away and returned to Alastor.

"Thank you, Husk," Alastor said. He put a hand on your back and led you back to the elevator so he could take you to your room.

--------------

You were sitting on your bed with a sketch book Charlie brought to you, doodling on a page.

There was a knock on your door. When you went to open it, Vaggie was there.

"I heard there was a bar fight," she didn't even bother to say hello. You let her in and you sat down next to her on the bed.

"Yeah, there was," you said, rubbing your arm.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm okay. I didn't participate, I just dove behind the counter to hide. Husk is the one you should worry about, he got beaten up by a raptor," you looked at Vaggie. She had worry on her face when you mentioned Husk.

"Did he start it?" She now sounded angry.

"The raptor did, his name was Trevor I think," you mentioned. "He was trying to flirt with me so Husk attacked him. And don't yell at Husk please, he already got dragged home and thrown down by Alastor."

"Alastor was there?" Vaggie asked.

"Just for a second. He kind of made it stop. He was only there to get me out of the situation," you told her.

"He was there for you?"

"He was there to retrieve me," you touched Vaggie's arm.

"I just don't like the idea of him manipulating you into doing stuff for him. He's known for being powerful and evil, he could really hurt you," she sounded genuinely concerned.

"I don't think Alastor wants to do that. I think he actually cares about me and isn't hanging out with me for his personal gain but because he likes my presence. And I like his," you took your hand back and smiled at Vaggie.

Vaggie let out an annoyed sigh. No matter what you told her, she continued to believe Alastor was out to hurt you. You would just have to prove he wasn't.

--------------

The rest of the day went by quite slowly, everything was boring, Alastor was out in the woods doing who knows what. You were presently in the kitchen making something to eat. You found some leftover chicken from somewhere and took that, despite the box saying 'ANGEL DUST.'

It was pretty good and tasted like paprika. Then all of a sudden the tall spider walked into the room.

"Hey, I never got your name- WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!?" he yelled.

You stumbled back a bit, dropping the empty box on the floor and flattening your ears against your head.

"Eating food?" Your tail swished nervously.

"THAT WAS MINE!" he grumbled.

"Sure the box said 'Angel Dust,' but it didn't say 'no one except Angel Dust can eat the contents of this box.' do you want your box back?" You argued.

Angel Dust stuttered angrily for a moment.

"Alright, it's fine. I'm only letting you off the hook because you had a valid argument. But next time, I'm writing that on the box and you can't eat my chicken!" Angel growled.

"I'm (y/n), by the way," you told him. "Can I make you something to eat as a sorry gift?"

"No, I'm just gonna eat Vaggie's food. It's not like she can do anything about it," Angel said. Just then, she walked into the room, opened the fridge, and took her food and left.

"Okay I'm taking your offer," Angel said.

You ended up making him a chicken and cheese sandwich. He ate it without complaining and thanked you for it afterwards.

After Angel left you alone again, you were very bored.

Alastor walked through the lobby, whistling and covered in blood.

"Alastor, what happened to you?" You ran out of the kitchen and went to look at him closer.

"I went hunting," he answered and then walked to the elevator. "And then had to viciously dismember someone before murdering them."

"Who?"

"Let's just say, a certain shitface who messed up big-time," he resumed his whistling and pressed the up button.

It didn't take a genius to figure out that the 'certain shitface' was Trevor.
You rode up to the top floor and waited for the door to open.

You felt kind of happy that Alastor would do that for you. But you also felt kind of scared. What if Husk messed up, or Angel, or Vaggie? Or anyone at the hotel?

"Well, my dear, if you don't mind I should probably go wash up. I'll see you tomorrow!" Alastor stepped off the open elevator.

You went to your room, got into your pajamas, and tucked yourself into bed. You eagerly anticipated waking up tomorrow and spending more time with Alastor.
