You woke up in your room, you still felt a bit drowsy. you turned your head, and to your surprise you saw Alastor sitting on chair next to you, his head cupped in his hands. "Al...?" his head shot up as soon as he heard your voice. "(y/n) darling! your awake!" He smiles with relief and puts his hand on your forehead. "Al, what happened...?" his eyes got sad " we were wondering the same thing dear, Charlotte and Vaggie found you collapsed in front of the hotel door around 2 a.m., you were in awful condition..."

You sat up as flashbacks of what had happened came in to your mind, and it brought you to tears. the more you thought about it the more unclean you felt. you huddled yourself into a ball and started sobbing. Alastor panicked and wrapped himself around you and rocked you back and forth. "shh, it's okay dear, you're alright, just calm down" his voice soothed you and you eventually calmed down enough to start thinking straight again. "I want to take a shower"

He let go of you and led you to the bathroom, and turned on the shower. "here you go darling, I'll be waiting in your room" You nodded letting him know that you understood. you stepped into the shower after removing your clothes. For a minute you just stood there, letting the warm water hit your back. after washing your body until you felt satisfied, you ran your hands through your (hair texture) hair. once you reached the back of your head, you felt a sharp pain, and a small bump. "this is most likely where the bat hit me" you thought to yourself. You stepped out of the shower and wrapped your body with in towel. you stepped back into your room where Alastor was sitting in the same chair reading a newspaper.

"I-I'm done" he looked back up at you, "I put an outfit on your bed, would you like me to leave while you get dressed?" you shook your head. "no, you can stay" He nodded and looked back down at the newspaper. After you finished changing, you put your hair in a bun. Alastor noticed that you were finished changing and stood up. "well dear, since you're finished, we should go see everyone downstairs, they're all very worried about you" you shyly grab Alastors hand which causes him to stop. "yes dear?" you look into Alastors eyes "I love you Al" He bends down so that his face is somewhat close to yours, grabs your chin and whispers "I love you too darling" and kisses you deeply. You release each other, both of you slightly blushing.

He grabs your hand and leads you downstairs where your friends were waiting for you. you get to the main room of the hotel where your immediately greeted buy angel and Charlie with a big hug." Are you alright (y/n)?" said Charlie with a worried face. "yea, I just have a bit of a headache," out of nowhere Alastor wraps his arm around your shoulder and pulls you too his side. "can you tell us what happened dear?" that's why he did it, he knew that you were going to be emotional. You and Alastor sat on the sofa, while everyone sat around you on the ground. You told them every detail that you could remember. horror and shock filled Charlies eyes, but Alastor just seemed to get angrier with every word that came out of your mouth, but he held you tight for comfort, no matter how mad he was.
