The alarm blared in angles ear and she pulled the pillow over her head for a moment before she sat up and looked down angrily at the little buzzing block with flashing red numbers. "You are evil. And my boss is the devil for goodness sake." She muttered sleepily, throwing het pillow at it to shut it up. She looked around her bed and saw no sign of dice... had she dreamt it? Her quick glance down at her body said otherwise. She was covered from her neck to her hips in little purple splotches from his love bites. How was she supposed to hide those? Nor to mention the marks on her wrists from the belt. She groaned as she slipped from the bed and slipped on the outfit that dice left her, assuming he had taken the one she had been wearing the night before. This outfit was that skimpy little number from the day before but this time it was purple and black. Was dice trying to send a message here?
Hold on...there was something else different about this one too... a collar?! A leather collar?! With a heart tag that said D. & D. On it. Oh there was no way she was wearing that. It was bad enough her whole body was exposed she wasn't walking around wearing something that showed she belong to someone because she sure did NOT!
She pulled on her stockings and went for the door to find it had actually been left open for her. Fine by her. She didn't need an escort. Knowing that dice her show up with a freaking leash!
She made her way down to the main floor and back to the back stage where wheezy and Piroetta waited for her.
Piroetta looked her up and down and bit her lip, "dearie? You ok?"
In all honesty? Was she ok? She was fine physically, a little tired and sore but... was she ok?
She looked up from the floor and looked at Piroetta for a second before falling to her knees and Piroetta and wheezy rushed forward to tend to her. They asked her what had happened but... She didn't want to own up to the fact that... She liked it. She enjoyed what she and dice had done and she enjoyed the kiss with the devil and dancing with him. What she did not enjoy was this feeling of feeling like she was a disappointment. She had always been the level headed one. The logical one. The one who made smart decisions.... And yet here she was. Trapped as a servant in the devils casino for the rest of her life, buying letters with kisses and letting dice play her like a finely tuned fiddle into the small hours of the morning... Elder Kettle would be so ashamed of her and her brothers wouldn't even recognize her and she had been there less than three full days!
Wheezy brought her some water while Piroetta sat her down and tried to sooth her but the thing was there were no tears, there was fear, there was just...an empty look in her eyes as everything hit her at once.
"I miss my home Piroetta..." She eventually said as wheezy came back and handed her the water.
"I know dearie but...I think it was very brave of you to take your brothers places. You're a wonderful sister. Suffering for their sake."
She nodded slowly as she sipped the water. She knew that, but that didn't mean she didn't want to go home.
The second her show was over that night she went to try and escape to her room but the devil and dice were standing in the hall waiting for her with smiles on their faces. "Wonderful show doll."
"Yes darlin you were radiant. Love the costume change too by the by..." dice chimed, referring to the longer dressed version of what she had worn previously.
She took a step back. "Please i... I'm tired..." She said, trying to fight these new urges she felt to spend time with them. What had they done to her?
The devil made a , "come here" gesture in the air with his hand and she felt that tight feeling in her chest again as she was forced to come up to him. "Dice tells me you two had a bit of a time last night? Is that right?"
She blushed and glared at dice out of the corner of her eye. Of course the bastard told the devil everything. "So what if we did?"
"Maybe I'm a little jealous..." the devil said with a shrug.
"Look I don't know what you two think I am but I'm not some toy! I.... I don't wanna be tossed around like a rag doll. That's not what I signed up for." She said pushing herself back away from the devil and glaring at them, leaving them both a bit stunned. "Now if you'll excuse me..." She said as she went to push past them and head to her room and they watched her go in total silence.
She made her way back to her room to find her green dress was trapped over the chair in the corner and she happily changed into it before heading back downstairs to find wheezy and Piroetta for Dinner.
She found them on their break in a booth off in the corner of the casino and she sat down next to them just as one of the tipsy troop brought over what wheezy and Piroetta had ordered. "We order for you since you were taking a while." She explained, scooting a burger in front of Angel.
"Thanks. That's fine. Sorry about that. I got stopped in the hall by brain cells 1 and 2."
The two laughed and shook their heads. "That's a good one. You should call them that to their faces. They'd probably think you're calling them smart." Wheezy said as he sipped his drink.
She chuckled and shook her head as she dug into her food, not having realized just how hungry she was before.
Wheezy suddenly slinked an arm around her shoulders and pulled her close. Gah he smelled like smoke and tar. "Wheezy? What is it?"
She followed his gaze to where the devil and dice were sitting in their own booth, watching, dice leaning back against the devil with his kees crossed and the devil man spreading with his arm around dice. She blushed when she realized their gazes were on her.
"Maybe you should stay with one of us tonight angel baby." Piroetta said protectivly as she reached out to wipe angels face clean of some ketchup at the corner of her mouth.
"No it's ok. They're not gonna hurt me. They're just sore losers is all." She said before she began ignoring the two across the way and eating her food without a worry in the world. She was b egining to understand just how this place worked.
Wheezy and Piroetta exchanged concerned glances but nodded, figuring angel knew what was best for angel.
Wheezy walked angel back to her room to keep dice and devil from following her or any other creep really and he swirled her spoon in her head to do the equivalent of shuffling someone hair. "Night squirt. See you tomorrow. " he said before he turned and walked off and she waved goodbye to him before walking into her room.
