(Cuphead) (Devil x Reader/OC x King Dice) Sweet As Honey

New Friends In Low Places

That night was honestly one of the hardest nights angel had ever had. She could hardly sleep even after a long hot bath in the huge black stone bathtub in her bathroom with the lavender tea soap she found and after having some noodles she found in the kitchen to fill the pit in her stomach and she even found a night gown that fit her perfectly. No doubt it was the devil magical doings that all the things she needed or wanted were in the exact places she looked for them.
But as she laid in that bed and tossed and turned to what she could only assume was the sound of thunder outside she missed her home, her own bed, her brothers and elder kettle. She missed how on nights where she couldn't sleep she could slip out into the dark of the night to see Cagney Carnation and his little flower pack for comfort. They were always so nice to her and hoenstly...She had a bit of a crush on Cags. He was beautiful and so strong and he always defended her when cups and mugs were being jerks. She missed it all.
She must have fallen asleep at some point though because she woke up to a small alarm clock going off at 7. She had 30 minutes to be ready before dice came for her.
She looked around for her dress but... Couldn't find it. All she could find was a short black pencil skirt, a white button up blouse with a black vest that had a heart stitched onto the front with an ornate A in its center. There was also a pair of tall black heals and fish net stockings. Was she supposed to be a singer or a stripper?! And where was her dress?! She didn't like that someone had been in her room with her while she had been asleep...or worse...while she had been in the bath. The thought sent shivers down her spine but she quickly dressed away since that was all she had to wear now. She just finished putting on the stockings when dice knocked and opened the door, smiling at her, "good morning darling. Well! Look at you! Without that Amish dress on you look sexy!"
A deep blush covered her porciline face and she looked away. "Was this your doing or the devil?"
"I must admit it was a bit of us both."
"Well then you'll both be disappointed when I tell you I can't walk in heals..."She said sourly.
"Of course you can!" Dice said as he came over to her and knelt in front of her, lifting her leg and her eyes widened as he was able to see right up her skirt with her he had her now while he put on her shoe. "I-I can put them on!" She protested
Dice shook his head and looked up at her, "nonsense! Allow me darlin!" He said with a smirk as his eyes began to wander down her body and she quickly closed her legs and...acidentlly kicked dice in the head.
"Oh my gosh I'm so sorry I... wait... no! I'm not sorry you were looking up my skirt!" She said as she wiggled free.
Dice chuckled and rubbed his jaw, "guilty. My apologies. It won't happen again... at least without permission." He assured as he more gently took her other foot and placed the shoe on it.
She eyed him up and down. He...He wasn't mad. He didn't seem like he had much of a temper on him like the devil did... in fact dice seemed like a rather chill person so far. She did not mind his company.
He helped her to her feet and she stumbled a bit but with his help she was quickly able to make her way downstairs with dice to meet the rest of the crew.
The first to meet was a very excitable floating 8 ball who rushed up to them the second they stepped off the elevator and smiled a wide smiled, shaking her hand, "nice to meet you! I'm mangosteen!" He said in a fairly wacky voice that made angel actually smile a bit which took dice off guard. Even such a small smile was beautiful on her face.
Mangosteen began chattering on about how angel and him were gonna be best friends cause he saw it in a vision and bla bla bla. Eventually dice had to shoo him away because he could tell angle was getting a bit lost with the hyperactive 8 balls constant onslaught of visionary promises.
He then lead her over to the bar where she met the tipsy troop who were all happy to meet her but then quickly asked who she was again after a moment since they were clearly drunk.
Dice just shook his head and prayed they weren't drinking the bar supplies again. Last time they did that boss nearly shattered them. "If you ever want a nice cocktail get ms. Martini to mix it" he told her as he slipped an arm around her to lead her away.
"Oh I don't drink. I'm not old enough."
Dice looked down at her and raised an eyebrow, "how old are you?"
"20 as of last week. The boys and I are the same age."
Dice nodded slowly. "I don't remember seeing you before... when the boys were here I mean."
"I didn't come." She said with a shrug. "I learned a long time ago not to follow my brothers antics... you can see the kind of things that happen when I do." She said gesturing to herself and the casino.
Dice chuckled. "They do seem to have a knack for causing trouble don't they?"
"You don't know the half of it." She said with a chuckle.
He beamed, he loved that sound. Her laugh wad so pure. Maybe she was an angel after all...
He lead her back stage and there was Piroetta and Mr. Wheezy. "And these two will be helping you rehearse while I get to work. You two be nice to her and look after her." Dice said before taking her hand and kissing the top of it before leaving.
She blushed and watched him go as Mr wheezy, a huge cigar man came over and put his arm around her shoulder. "Got yer eyes on dice dick huh kid?" He said
"Wh-what?! No he's just....just nice to me that's all!" She defended as she looked up at the man.
Piroetta chuckled as she dug through a box of dresses, "sure sure sweetie. Just nice to ya."
"But he is!" She defended.
"Well me thinks he's gonna nice his way right into your bed if you're not careful kid." Wheezy said as he brought her over to a chair and opened up a professional box of make up.
"No way! I'm not that kind of girl!"
"Don't worry kid. Mr. Wheezy and Piroetta are here now. We w ont let the big mean dice or devil touch ya. Ok?" He said in his thick accent as he put a hand on her shoulder.
She smiled shyly and nodded. "Thank you."
They nodded and got to work, making her into a quoting what the devil demanded of them, a little doll.
It was about an hour and a half before she was done and she stepped up to the mirror. She had never looked so...so sexy and delicate before. She didn't feel like herself. All this lace and silk and skin showing. She felt so wrapped up... like twine around cookie dough. "This is really what the devil wants me to wear?" She asked nervously.
"Yep. Said with a voice like a doll you needed to look the part. Now let's work on the music." Piroetta said as she took her shoulders and guided her to a practicing area back stage where the three picked out songs, and rehearsed all afternoon until dice came knocking. "Time for the show d-d...." his jaw dropped when he saw angel in her lacy outfit and his eyes turned bright green. He quickly fixed his face, "t-time for the show darlin." He managed to get out with a smile. "You look beautiful."
She blushed. "Thanks..."
Mr. Wheezy folded his arms as he stood behind her and glared at dice. He knew that look on dices face and he wasn't about to let dice near angel.
Dice cleared his throat, "well... break a leg out there cutie." He said before he made his way out to the floor to tame his place next to the devil.
Wheezy went out on stage and cleared his throat as Piroetta massaged angels shoulders to calm her.
"And now, introducing our newest performer, our little doll, Angel!"
Angel stepped out and was blinded by the lights that shown down on her but she could feel the eyes of some of the drunks out on the floor turn to her as she made her way to wheezy to take the microphone.
She swallowed nervously as wheezy exited the stage and music began to play and she began to sing.
Before long every eye in the place was on her as she belted her little heart out on that stage hitting every high and low note in every song though her show. And after a bit she even forgot about the people watching her and just enjoyed herself. It was actually fun!
When the show ended the stage went dark and she rushed back to wheezy and Piroetta who hugged her and kissed her head. "You did amazing doll! Absouloutly beautiful!" Piroetta praised.
"Indeed she did..." the devil said as dice took to the stage and thanked everyone for enjoying the show and bla bla bla.
She turned to see the devil standing there and blushed at the way he looked her up and down.
Wheezy placed protective hands on her shoulders but the devil wasn't afraid of wheezy...
