Alastor ran the towel along his ears, stroking them gently as he dries off. His ears were very sensitive, so he preferred just himself touching them. Somehow in some magical fucking way, he remembered the rest of yesterday. When he had.. asked out Angel. (I'm so original)

He had said yes.. did Alastor really feel the way he had stated? Usually when he was drunk he had told the truth, being too childish to lie seeing as it was bad. He liked Angel Dust..

No. More than that. He..

"No no!!" Alasgor shouted, breathing heavily. He ran a comb through his hair, attempting to get it down. His nerves caused it to stand straight up, which was found quite irritating.

Alastor was in love with Angel, that is why he had given things to the spider he'd never to anyone. It was why he spoke so openly with him the previous night, why he asked him out. These thoughts made the deer smile genuinely. He was in love. An emotion he never let himself feel.

It was pleasant, so warm and nice. However, dread replaced it when he realized Angel could have only said yes because Alastor was wasted. Did the spider really like him back? There was only one way to find out!

Alastor would ask him out once again today, not wasted! His sudden confidence made him chuckle, deciding he would look very sharp today!

The red demon scrambled through his closet, looking for something casual yet hot. It was unlike him to want to look.. provocative, however he wanted to be at his best for Angel. He chose a cherry red vest, a black bowtie and and a white dress shirt to go under. Running his fingers through his hair once more, he put on his monocle and smirked in the mirror.

He did a few spins and turns, smirking to himself.

"Dapper as ever," the Radio Demon chuckled. He made his way to the door, only to stop when he heard two demons talking.

"Sheesh why are ya all so obsessed with us being a thing?!"

Alastor stepped out of the room, watching as the spider shouted at Niffty. To whom was he referring to?

Then, Alastor's ears feel back when he said it.

"He means nothing to me! Alastor means nothing to me!!"

He hadn't heard what Niffty said, only stepping back when she pointed to him. Angel's mouth dropped when he saw Alastor.

The deer demon glared sternly, turning immediately and going downstairs.

"Al!!" Angel had called, but Alastor did not reply.

He found himself in the kitchen, gripping the counter harshly with his nails. That was definitely leaving a mark, he'd talk to Charlie later.

The Radio Demon gripped his head, shutting his eyes tight. His head was spinning, his heart was racing.

"I knew it.." he muttered to himself, listening as Niffty and Angel called his name.

How could he have been so blind? Of course that slut didn't love him, if anything he used him. Taken advantage of him, and Alastor had lef him. His heart ached. After excepting love, of course things crashed down. This is why he refused feelings, why he had closed up. Why..he didn't love.

But thay stupid spider had broke the wall Al had built, only to crush its pieces after.

"Look at yourself, Alastor!" The demon shouted. He walked over to the fridge, talking to himself as he made breakfast for the residents.

"You're quite the foolish one for letting yourself feel this way.. forget those feelings! It was just an attraction, nothing more!!" He knew he was lying to himself, but maybe he could convince himself it was true.

He was not going to let anyone see him so vulnerable ever again, ever. Today he woukd act as if nothing happened..nothing.. at all.

Time skip to breakfast, brought to you by: my quarantined ass

When everyone arrived for breakfast, they were incredibly pleased with Alastor's cooking. He had made eggs(in 5 different ways), bacon, hashbrowns and pancakes. Truly he was quite the cook.

Earlier Angel and Niffty had decided to leave Al alone, but when the spider's eyes met the deer's, it was like daggers were stabbing Angel. He could see the pain in the Radio Demon's eyes, to which he hid well with that stupid smile. This was going to get awkward, and quite possibly bad.

Everyone sat in their normal seats, Charlie starting the conversation as usual.

"How did everyone sleep?" She piped, smiling widely.

"Terrible," Alastor smirked, his eyes focused on Angel.

"Huh?" The spider cocked his head.

The deer shrugged. "Some slut would not stop pestering me. I mean, he would not stop!" He laughed, his smirk becoming devious.

Angel was infuriated by this. So the guy spends the night with em, and calls HIM a slut?

"Well- I slept bad too!" He shouted at Alastor, everyone a bit taken back.

"Some pimp wouldn't stop askin' for more, and he was such a fuckin' virgin!"

Alastor growler under his breath, everyone was confused now.

"He couldn't please me!"

"So slow!!"

"Immature!"

"Virgin!!"

"Slut!!!"

They both pushed away from the table, arms crossed and glaring.

"What the hell, you two?!" Vaggie shouted. Charlie bit her lip, and Husk could care less what they were mad about.

The fighting demons stormed out of the room, not even putting their dishes in the sink!

"Charlie, you handle Al. I got Angel," Vaggie stated, cleaning up the plates. The princess nodded and went after the deer, while Vaggie to Angel.

Angel plopped down on the lobby couch, muttering in Italian under his breath. Vaggie was quick to sit beside him, not really wanting to help him. However, for the hotel's sake, and her good heart, she sighed.

"What happened in there?" She asked, a sympathetic look on her face.

Angel looked away, not wanting to answer her. But him wanting to get it all out, he gave in.

"Al and I.. did some stuff.." he answered, lightly blushing. Vaggie roed her eyes. "No shit,"

"He asked me out, and y'know he doesn't lie bout' that shit when he's drunk! But.." the spider looked down. "I said he was nothin' to me.. and I guess he's upset,"

The moth demon tapped her chin. "Do you feel the same?"

Angel bit down on his lip. "I..I think so! I've just neva' been one ta date yknow? What if I break his heart? What if.. it's too late?"

Vaggie made the spider look at her, spear in hand.

"Look, if you care you'll talk to him and go on  a date! Things will work out, I know they will. If he's that upset, theres something there."

Angel smiled at her. "Thanks, toots,"
