Unusual Ties(Huskerdust)

•~Chapter 13~•

"You're not the same man I once loved," a silhouette of a slim woman was outlined by light,"I can't keep doing this...I'm sorry."

As she walked out with a suitcase in hand, a man in his years stood there. His heart breaking every step his now ex wife made away from him.

"HUSK!," an annoying voice startled him awake, he looked up to see Niffty. He groaned and pulled at his ears, thanks to the stupid one eyed female, there was now a ringing in them,"What the fuck do ya want?"

"I want to know what you think would be good for dinner tonight," she smiled. "Are shittin me?! Ya woke me up for that?! Anything is fine dammit...," he growled, his head already hurting him. Not just from the liquor but from the dream as well. He hated that dream, it was one of the few god awful things he remembered from when he was alive. He grabbed his head, groaning a little in the process. "Well you're no help....," the hyper active cyclops whined,"I'll go ask Alastor then!"

Before Husk could open his mouth, Niffty ran upstairs. He groaned again and slammed his head to the counter,"Dammit...."

"So anywhere you'd like to go?," Cherri asked Angel. He thought for a moment,"How about some lunch. I didn't eat breakfast before coming out."

"Sure! That sounds great actually-"

She was cut off by a sudden voice,"Oh Angel Cakes~"

The spider's blood ran cold, he didn't want to even dare look. "Trying to ignore me now?," the periwinkle skinned demon asked, his words laced with annoyance. The limo stopped and Valentino got out. Angel grabbed Cherri's arm and quickened his pace. He did not want to face Val. As he walked his other arms were grabbed, and he was yanked back. Causing him to let go of both his bags and Cherri. "Let go," Angel tried to pull away from the other demon. "You didn't show up to work yesterday Angie, do you know how much money I'm losing?," the periwinkle male growled, narrowing his red eyes,"I don't pay you to be a lazy sack of shit. I pay you to get fucked over and over again no matter how fucking tired you are."

Cherri picked up a glass bottle and threw it at Val's head,"Let him go jackass!"

Angel and Valentino quickly looked at her. The white spider's face now filled with horror. "I don't think you know who you're messing with," Val growled out, "let me give you something you can remember me by."

"Cherri....run...," the demon spider spoke just Val pulled out a spear like weapon. Her eye widened,"Oh shit....that's an angel's spear."

Just before the periwinkle colored demon could throw it at her, Angel's third pair of arms came out to grab his arm,"Cherri please run!"

The cyclops wasn't one to abandon her friend, so she quickly knocked Valentino into the limo, and grabbed Angel's hand,"Now we can run!"

The two demons quickly picked up their bags and started running. "Where should we go?!," Cherri was gasping out as she ran. "To the hotel!," Angel responded, just to yelp out in pain like an injured puppy. "Angie?!," Cherri turned to see the angelic spear had been thrown and hit the spider on his back. "D-don't worry, l-lets go!," the spider whined out, this one would scar, but he kept running.

Upon arriving to the hotel they both settled down next to the door. "Holy hell Angie your back!," the cyclops looked at the spear that was still lodged deep into his lower back. It was bleeding like crazy too. "It's okay.....I can get it out.," he responded and with one hard yank and a yelp, he managed pull the angelic spear out. Blood poured out of the wound like a river, causing his friend to freak a bit,"Angie it looks bad, we need to get that patched up quickly..!"

She got up before helping him to his feet. Angel let out a pained grunt as he stood. The two went inside, fortunately everyone was gone from the lobby, even Husk. "You know where a first aid kit is or something?," the x eyed cyclops asked. The spider nodded,"Ones behind the bar there."

When she got the kit she settled down on the couch with Angel,"I'm no doctor but I'll patch you up the best I can."

The spider winced as she was dabbing the wound,"Damn....this hurts more than the day Val used a knife on my back." She sighed,"Well this is from an angelic weapon. This one is bound to scar. Be glad it didn't pierce completely through you. If you're lucky though, ya fur will grow back over it."

The two fell silent as the cyclops tended to his wound. He'd wince quietly every now and again, but other than that he was handling it well.

Husk came out of the bathroom, he just threw up his guts. His body wasn't taking too kindly to all that liquor. Not to mention his head was throbbing. He grumbled to himself as he was walking back to the bar, but a sudden whimper grabbed his attention. There was Angel and Cherri sitting on the couch as she tended to an injury the spider somehow managed to get. "What the fuck happened?," the cat asked as he walked over to the two. Cherri responded for the other,"Angie's boss found us and used an angel's spear on him." He looked at the wound,"I can finish it up. You should go home." The female cyclops looked at Angel then to Husk before giving a soft smile,"Sure. You seem like you can fix him up nicely." She said goodbye to the spider, told him to text her later before she got her bags and left.

The demon cat settle down and started fixing up the wound better than Cherri was doing. He nor Angel said a word to each other. At least not until Husk was close to finishing up.

"Husky....did I make ya mad at me?," the white spider asked, turning a little to look at him. "Huh no, why do ya ask...?," Husk responded and put a bandaged on the other's injury. Angel fixed up his clothes as he answers back,"Well ya did lash out at me....called me a whore too...."

"Yeah.....about that, I'm sorry," the cat apologized,"Just had something on my mind...."

Angel went to rub Husk's cheek as he spoke, but the cat quickly pulled away,"Don't touch me okay?"

"Oh...okay....," the spider felt defeated. Husk had to be lying to him. He definitely blew his chance with the guy,"I'm gonna go to my room...thanks again Husky."

As Husk watched Angel leave, there was a ping of guilt. He knew why he felt that guilt, but didn't like it.

I can't do this anymore.

He grasped at his head,"LEAVE DAMMIT! JUST FUCKIN' LEAVE!"

The cat felt his heart racing, he couldn't handle the dreadful memories that clouded his mind. It only worsened the fear of falling in love with Angel.
