For Just One Night (AngelDust X Husk)

Only Chance

Angel POV:

I knew that I annoyed him. His rejection of my advances made him that much more enticing. All the simple grunts and eye rolls, the insults and flustered looks, that's something I dont get from the people who pay me to get laid. Insults are one thing, outbursts are another. There Husk was, breathing heavily and giving me a threatening face, after effectively shutting down every move I've ever made. I could just stand there, and consider his words. I know that Alastor has a distaste for sex, but I never considered that Husk had one as well. Of course he stays away from me, but I like them hard to get. His last words made me think the most.

"Husk, I'm sorry for makin ya' uncomfortable, but ya' gotta throw me a bone here, babe".

"...And why the FUCK should I do that?".

"'Cause I'm willin to try".

I slipped him my room key, and got close to his ear.

"I promise babe, I'll take things slow. Consida' this a date".

He froze in place and didnt speak a word. I took that as my cue to walk upstairs, and leave him to his own thoughts.

I always had feelings for Husk. There hasn't been a time where I looked at him and didn't want to have a connection with him. Sex is my thing, romance isn't. If that's what he wanted from me, I wasnt sure I could give it to him. I wasnt sure he wanted any part of me. The room key was an invitation, not a guarantee that he would come knocking. I took off my clothes, and proceeded to put on an oversized, fluffy pink sweatshirt and pink striped knee-high socks.

There were footsteps outside my door. I sat on my bed and started combing through my hair with my fingers from anticipation. There was a knock.

"The door is open~".

The doorknob turned and opened up, revealing husk, looking down at the carpet and refusing to speak.

"Hey suga', come sit".

I patted the spot next to me with one of my lower arms, and leaned on my others for support. The door closed, and he walked towards me, holding his arm, avoiding eye contact as much as possible. His tail trailing on the ground behind him and his wings tucked in close, he sat down a bit further from me than I had suggested.

"What brings ya' here, hon?"

He sighed and spoke quietly.

"I'm taking you up on your fucking offer. I'm throwing you a bone. This is it. This is your chance".

I remembered what he said. He wanted to take it slow. I leaned closer to him and spoke quietly to match his tone.

"If I wasn't in the business that I'm in, would you have let me tell you how handsome you are?"

He looked up, and for just a second, our eyes met. I wasnt sure he'd ever heard such a question before. I dont think that I had ever asked such a question before.

"..no, I never believe that shit. No matter who it's coming from. It just so happens that you want to fuck anything that breathes, so forgive me if I think that your compliments are empty".

"They're not. I've seen plenty a' man in my life, and most of them pay me to whisper them sweet nothins'. You ain't payin me. Ya don't need to".

I leaned in closer to his face, and breathed on his neck. He kept looking down to his hands, and I let my instinct take over. I left a soft ghost of a kiss on his neck, feeling the warm fur brush my face. Again and again I left wetter, more intense kisses on the nape of his neck, letting a hot feeling boil from my face down to my crotch. He leaned into it and I could feel his heartbeat. My hand reached for and landed on his thigh, when he started pulling away.

His paw landed on my face and pushed me away, and he shuffled to the farther end of the bed to escape my touch.

"I FUCKING NEW YOU WOULD DO THIS".

"What?! Babe I was just-"

"YOU ACTED ALL FUCKING NICE, ACTUALLY MAKING ME THINK YOU CARED. YOU THINK YOURE SO FUCKING SLICK, GETTING IN MY PANTS AS SOON AS I LET MY GUARD DOWN, HUH?"

His face was red with anger and embarrassment, and his claws were digging into my blanket. He got up, and stomped towards the door.

"Fucking serves me right for trusting you".

The door slammed, and I was left alone, upset and disappointed in myself for fucking up my only chance.
