Everyone at the table was looking at Charlie. She was saying what everyone should do before they ate. You were sitting in between Alastor and Husk. The cat didn't want to be here and had told you he would rather be out ransacking a run down casino for extra chips and money.
"We are going to go around in a circle and tell eachother what we're thankful for. Vaggie, do you want to go first?" She looked at her girlfriend.
"No, you should go first. You're the one who planned this," she smiled at Charlie. The doll like demon nodded and grinned back at her.
"I'm thankful for everyone's support in my project and their contributions. Whether it be big or small, it's enough," Charlie turned to Vaggie.
Vaggie began to speak.
"I'm thankful everyone in here isn't at each other's throats non-stop," she turned to her right where Nifty was sitting.
"I'm thankful Alastor brought me here so I could meet you guys!" She cheered.
Angel Dust was next.
"I'm thankful for... Free housing?" He joked. Vaggie shot him a glare full of venom. "A-and friends."
Alastor shook his head before speaking.
"I'm thankful for everyone here. You all are quite amusing and have kept me entertained," he said. You couldn't tell if it was as joke or a compliment so you kept your playful scoff to yourself.
You reached under the table and grabbed Alastor's hand. He looked at you for a second and then turned back to look at his plate.
"I'm thankful that everyone here let me stay and hasn't tried to kill me," you glanced at Alastor who let out a silent chuckle.
"Alcohol," Husk said. "And gambling."
Vaggie opened her mouth, ready to retort, but Charlie placed a hand on her shoulder and shook her head.
"Let's eat!" Charlie announced.
--------------
Nifty gathered up everyone's empty dishes and used silverware and scurried to the kitchen. She loved cleaning which was a hobby if hers you'd never understand.
Everyone had gone to the lobby to relax and digest their huge dinners. Husk was the exception and went back to his room to sleep. He was such a lazy kitty.
You were close to falling asleep next to Alastor but you forced yourself to stay awake by listening to whatever it was that Charlie was talking about. With your knees curled up to your chest and your hands on the back of your neck, you opened your eyes the slightest bit.
"...And then I decided to make the hotel! Vaggie was the only one who supported it at the time, but now we have Angel and Alastor and Husk and Nifty. And you, (y/n)," when Charlie said you name your eyes widened.
"Yes ma'am?" You looked at her, attentively and sleepily.
Alastor laughed at the look on your face and the grogginess in your voice. To him, you were just an adorable, precious bean that he would kill anyone for. He cared about you more than anything.
"I was just saying you helped with the hotel," Charlie giggled.
"Oh," you opened your mouth really wide and let out a huge yawn. "I think I'm going to go to bed," you stood up from the couch and stretched before walking over to the elevator.
Alastor watched you leave with a disappointed smile. He wanted so badly to follow you, but he wasn't tired and felt obligated to listen to the misfits stories.
That is, until it was Angel's turn.
"Good night," Alastor stood up and followed you.
You were already in your pajamas by the time Alastor knocked on your door.
"Just a sec," you got out from under your covers and opened the door to find Alastor.
"Hey, what brings you here?" You opened the door wider to let him inside before closing it behind him.
"I was wondering if I could spend some more time with you," Alastor said awkwardly.
"Well of course. I need to sleep right now but maybe in the morning?"
"Can I spend the night?" Alastor blurted out. He quickly realized his 'mistake' but not soon enough.
"Yes. Please do," you got back into your bed and Alastor did the same after slipping off his jacket and setting it on the nightstand. It was kind of awkward but you didn't know exactly why.
"I- um. Sweet dreams?" Alastor said in questioningly.
"Sweet dreams," you confirmed.
--------------
Thesky grew brighter and shone through your window and onto your face. You felt something warm pressing hard against your back and felt arms around your waist.
Your mind helped you remember last night when Alastor asked to sleep with you. The whole ordeal was pretty cute.
You wanted to turn your head to see if he was awake, but also didn't want to wake him up if he wasn't.
"Al?" You whispered so quietly that he probably didn't hear it.
"Mhmm?" He was awake. You wiggled in his arms and turned around to face him.
"Are you ready to be awake?" You played with his tie which he forgot to take off last night.
"No," he hugged you tighter and closed his eyes.
"Don't you have a job?" You teased.
"No," Alastor said. "I'm just here to advertise."
You giggle and sat up, which Alastor didn't like. He grumbled a bit and reached out to pull you back down. He couldn't since you had already gone to the bathroom to get ready.
Alastor reluctantly sat up on the edge of the bed and yawned, arching his back like a cat.
You opened the bathroom door and walked out in just a normal (f/c) T-shirt and a pair of grey leggings.
"What does this make us?" You walked over and sat next to the tired deer.
"What do you want to be?" He looked at you.
"I'm not entirely sure," you leaned against him and let him play with your your hands.
"Wanna wait until we figure it out?" He asked you.
"Yes."
Alastor let go of your hands and pulled you close to him.
