last chapter of this angsty, feely mess lol
"What?"
Husk had thought about this a million times since the first time it happened. He wished just a tiny little bit Charlie would come find him, tell him she was a little embarrassed and wanted to be with him instead. That it was a mistake of what she had said. Maybe she would've said it when he was in Angel's room. He should've opened the door then.
All the pain he had felt after the whole incident was a lot in itself and he had placed more hurt on Charlie whenever she tried to apologize.
But now, he wasn't sure he was hearing her right. That somehow this whole thing wasn't happening and he was just daydreaming.
"Can you show me how much I mean to you? I wanna experience it again….. Only if you want to, though."
His heart nearly leapt out of his chest. He certainly didn't smell alcohol on her this time. He wasn't sure he was ready for this at all.
"I want you to be mine," Charlie said quietly, waiting for an answer.
It felt like a ton of bricks was dropped on him. Hadn't he waited for her to say that?
"You don't mean that-
"I do. I do love kissing you by the way."
Charlie looked away, her cheeks turning a brighter shade of pink. It was hard being honest with herself. Maybe she hadn't intended for anything to happen with the cat demon, ever but now…. She was sure he was someone she wanted to be with.
When she made that list, she realized how easy it was. All those things she liked about him…. Her favorite was his blunt honesty.
But…..
The silence now was killing her.
It was silence but it sounded like rejection. She had prepared herself for this. She didn't think he would ever forgive her so quickly after a few cheap gestures. She knew she was being selfish because she wanted to know what it was like without some outside influence affecting her.
"Can I at least hug you before you go?"
He nodded stiffly. Charlie ran her fingers over his fur and pulled him against her. Then it happened just like that.
Charlie looked up at him with her big red and yellow eyes and he was lost in them just like when she came to his room. She smiled up at him with her wild bed head and in the most unflattering bed clothes but she couldn't have been more beautiful.
His resolve broke just like that.
"Shit-
"Hmm-
He dipped down, kissing Charlie firmly and she moaned against his lips. Charlie started walking backwards towards her bed and he followed right with her without breaking from her dark lips. They fell onto the bed together becoming a tangled mess of limbs. Charlie's bottoms with her underwear were thrown to the carpet then her shirt was next, hanging off a bed post.
He could smell how turned on she was and it was a lot stronger than when she was drunk.
Husk couldn't believe it was happening again. He wanted her so badly. He had been punishing himself for not accepting her apology because she wasn't a mean person. Mistakes happen and hell, it had to be the best one he ever had.
Carefully, he slid two of his claws inside of Charlie and she cried out loudly, almost squeezing down in response to the sudden intrusion.
Fuck she's already ready. Had she been hoping for this to happen?
He removed them from her quickly before licking them clean, making Charlie blush.
"You ready for me?"
"Always."
Husk pushed his throbbing dick inside of her in one quick snap of his hips and the princess shuddered beneath him.
"So…. so big," she choked out, clinging to him.
The cat demon smirked, "How do you want it, doll?"
"Like the first time," she answered breathlessly.
"Then I'll make sure you don't forget this time."
He took her hands in his paws, began kissing her and moved slowly like the last time. Charlie's cries, moans and whimpers filled the room with his growls and groans of pleasure.
"Fuck you feel divine-
Charlie nipped at his bottom lip in response.
"Gonna cum," she whispered.
"Then let me hear it baby."
She seized up under him, back arching with her legs tightening around his waist.
"H-Husk!"
She had to applaud him for stamina because he had a lot of it. It was like he already knew where to hit all the spots that made her squirm but she was rather transparent with how things felt for her. He listened to her, watched her face and the way she reacted to everything.
He never tried hard for anything in his damn life but he would with her. Husk snapped his hips forward, a little rougher than he would have but the yelp and the grip she had on his paws made him grin. He did a few more times and her legs squeezed around his hips. She shook a little bit, breathing heavy.
"O-oh my god! I can't-
"You can," he whispered, nipping her lips, "I'm not done with you yet."
"F-fuck-
Once the third one passed, Charlie had soaked the bed under them and his fur. She panted, stammered with pleas that she couldn't take another one.
"One more for me," Husk whispered as he brushed the hair from her hot face, "One more and I'll finish with ya. Can you do that for me princess?"
She nodded quickly and her legs fell to the sides, letting him in deeper. She was coming undone fast and he could feel it.
"Goddamn you feel so good, it's unbelievable."
Charlie tried squeezing her thighs together but he wouldn't let her.
"Oh my god…. Husk I-
"Hang in there doll, I'm right there with you."
He quickened his pace to keep up with her when she tensed up, cried out so loudly her sounds echoed off the walls and he spilled everything he had into her with one last quick movement. Her eyes were watering, she was shaking and soaked.
He touched her face carefully. She certainly looked dazed but she was smiling.
"Are you alive?"
"Maybe, I'm not sure," she joked tiredly.
He snorted before carefully removing himself from her.
"Can I have another kiss?" she asked softly.
He hummed and leaned in towards her face.
Fuck she's beautiful.
Charlie managed to regain feeling in her legs, she changed her bed sheets and asked Husk to shower with her. Honestly, he almost said no but he was glad to get in there with her. She washed him off, using her fingernails. It felt so good he almost felt like he was putty in her hands.
She was outrageously considerate. Her shower head detached and she helped him with his feathers on his wings and was careful about his ears.
She replaced the shower head and didn't ask for his help with her hair or anything. It had to be the claws but watching her wash herself off wasn't not helping matters any. He had reduced her to a whimpering puddle and that was the whole reason for the shower.
Besides…
Physical strength like holding someone up in the shower wasn't his thing and he didn't want to accidentally slice up her ass cheeks or thighs.
Husk helped her out of the shower. She wrapped up her hair then her body before helping him dry off. She even pulled out the blow dryer and helped him out with drying off faster. She was careful with how she did everything, even his tail.
"I'm sorry."
Charlie looked at him in the mirror before turning away from it to look at him. Her brush was embedded in her hair and she looked frazzled with her hair a wild mess.
"Why? I don't mind the bedsheets being messy."
He snorted.
"I was a fucking jackass. I just acted like a bitch the whole time-
The princess placed her hand on his arm.
"You weren't the one acting like a bitch, I was. You had every right to be upset and I should've listened to you. It's ok. Your feelings were valid and I understand why you felt it. No more apologizing though. I think we've done enough of that."
He fell silent.
"So…."
She finished off her hair finally and returned her attention to him.
"You want to spend the night with me?"
"I wouldn't want to be anywhere else right now."
He gave her a small smile and she led him to her bed. She curled up against him and he threw the sheet over both of them. And just like the first time, he started purring, making her smile and held him close.

Oddly enough, Charlie didn't give him any extra attention but he wasn't complaining. He was more than happy that things were ok now. He would have to thank Angel Dust at some point. He could see the smug ass look on that bastard's face now.
During lunch, Charlie did seek him out and bring him lunch since he never liked sitting with anyone usually. The only one who seemed to notice this slight change was Alastor. Once Charlie bounced away to do whatever she usually did, he made his way to the bar.
Husk was a little terrified- he was man enough to admit that to himself. He figured he would be dead today anyways so why not. It was worth it after all.
"I see."
The cat demon arched an eyebrow. Playing stupid wasn't his strong suit but he wasn't sure if he wanted to answer.
"She picked you after all and you didn't turn her down."
"No, I didn't turn her down."
The Radio Demon hummed for a moment.
"Hm."
"If you're gonna fuckin' murder me just do it already."
Alastor smirked before cackling.
"No, no dear Husker! I'm sure Charlie will come to her senses soon enough and more entertainment will be on my way watching you try to drink yourself to death. I can't wait."
The cat demon sighed. He wasn't surprised. The deck was stacked against him though. He almost felt like it was too easy….
"Thanks I guess?"
Alastor turned on his heel and left the lobby.
Dinner time rolled around when Angel Dust finally sought out Husk. At least he had the decency to wait until the end of the day to pester him.
"Hey Husky! How's a nice night of romping doing for yer grouchy attitude?"
"Fuck off."
"Oh kinky! I guess it didn't help much."
Jesus christ
"Well whatever. Thanks and all that shit."
The porn star's smile fell and he blinked.
"You're welcome."
Husk slid over a drink to him.
"You didn't have to help my sorry ass out but you did anyway. Thanks."
"It's good ta see someone fall in love once in a while."
"Who the fuck said anything about love-
"You love her. She finally told me and I have ta say I'm fucking impressed. I'm actually jealous of Charlie. So when did ya find out that ya wanted ta stuff her pink taco?"
"Fuckin' christ man!"
Angel drummed his fingers against the bar.
"Well?"
"I don't fuckin' know. It's…. It's been a few months."
"Then when ya got yer chance, you made love to her like you were going ta war ta die."
"What the fuck ever-
"She has one more surprise for ya."
"What? She doesn't have to make shit up to me anymore."
"She knows but she practiced hard for what she's about to do. She had me help her pick out her clothes and everything. She didn't expect ya to pop up at her room but she was happy about it."
"She's doing a love song isn't she?" Husk asked.
"It wouldn't be Charlie if she didn't sing to ya at least once, right?"
The cat demon sighed but it was true. Charlie loved singing and she was damn good at it too. She would've been one of those women singing on stage in a sparkling dress with all those drunken assholes whistling at her.
"Yea, you're right."
"What's wrong?"
"I feel like I was a jackass. I should've accepted her apology so I wouldn't have to hear all about your idea of gang banging her so Alastor wouldn't touch her. That got fuckin' stupid real fast."
The porn star snickered, "Ya see…. I would've just said I did. I wouldn't have touched ya girl. If I was gonna fuck anyone, it would be Vaggie."
Husk gaped at him.
"Hate fucking is fun but I doubt ya gonna be doin' that any time soon."
"You're a real piece of work, ya know that?" Husk sneered.
"Thanks! Glad ya think so!"
Angel finished off his drink and slid the glass back to Husk.
"Why didn't ya ask her out sooner if ya liked her?"
"Why do you thing I fuckin' wouldn't?"
The spider demon sighed, "That's why I'm asking. I'm not here ta make fun of ya. I wanna know because the guy Charlie described is exactly the kind of person she needs in her life. We all do."
"Never got the girl or guy I wanted when I was alive so why would any of it matter now huh?"
"I think maybe you were lustin' first then when she popped up at ya doorstep drunk as fuck, you caught feelings. Sometimes it's the grumpy guys who can say everything they want with actions instead of words. You thought in her right mind she would never want ya but ya could keep the fantasy for one night if ya showed her how much ya wanted her."
"Are you a fuckin' therapist now or some shit?!" he snapped.
Angel snorted.
"Actually wanted ta help Charlie out and be one. I'm very good at it."
"Whatever."
"Ya got yer fantasy to come true. Maybe you can help me find my true love."
"Yea, I'll work on that. Why don't you hit up Alastor."
Angel Dust smirked and shook his head.
"Naw, I don't want someone who don't wanna kiss me. Sex can be fuckin' terrible but if they kiss ya just right, it don't matter."
He stood up and slapped the bar.
"Oh yea! Kudos on that nice cucumber by the way. Charlie got a little braggy."
Angel winked at him and walked away. Husk smacked his forehead against the bar top.

"What the fuck is going on out here?"
Husk looked around the lobby seeing chairs set up.
Angel looked up from his phone from the couch.
"Yer right on time! Ya get the chair of honor!"
"What the fuck-
Angel got up and started shoving him towards the front where one chair stood several feet from the others.
"Stay right here. Ya want a beer?"
"Yea but why-
"You'll see!"
Jesus Christ.
It didn't take more than ten minutes for everyone to filter in. Almost all Charlie's sinners showed up (he forgot there were so many) then Niffty came bouncing in with a grin and she waved at him. Alastor walked in, giving him a weird look but he took a seat by Niffty. Vaggie walked by him with a smirk. He had to thank her too.
Angel came walking in again.
"Are ya ready?!" he yelled.
They cheered.
"The Princess of Hell has decided she's picked her one and only! She wants ta show him the only way she knows how!"
"One and only?" Husk sputtered out.
Angel smirked at him and waved his two hands around.
"Here is yer sexy hostess!"
Charlie came walking out in a black flowy dress that had a slit all the way to the thigh with red tulle peeking out from underneath. She wore bright red heels and used red lipstick on her upper lip. Her hair was curled into loose waves. Her shoulders were milky white and bare for everyone to see with the dress pushing up her breasts in a provocative way.
The sinners started whistling at her and she waved but her eyes stayed locked on his.
"Ready babe?!" Angel asked loudly and she nodded.
Music to a song he had never heard filtered out and he held his breath.
"Time is the reason why we fight to stay alive
Until the morning comes
It's a strife,
But the shimmer in your eyes just makes me know
That you and I belong-
And you can light the dark all by your own
So, let us show the world our love is strong-"
Charlie stepped towards him a little more, lips moving magically as more words left her mouth. It was obvious she had practiced a good bit.
"Like a sign, like a dream, you're my amaranthine
You are all I needed, believe me
Like we drift in a stream, your beauty serene
There's nothing else in life I ever need
My dream, amaranthine
Time goes by as a day and nights are turning into years
But I'm lying in your arms
It's the place
Where I know that I am closest to your heart
Where the dark is torn apart-
She twirled around, the skirt of her dress spinning with her, clinging to her pale legs.
"I know you feel the same as I inside
It feels like a dream where we can fly!
Like a sign, like a dream, you're my amaranthine
You are all I needed, believe me
Like we drift in a stream, your beauty serene
There's nothing else in life I ever need
My dream, amaranthine
It's a strife
But the shimmer in your eyes just makes me know
You're my amaranthine
Like a sign, like a dream, you're my amaranthine
You are all I needed, believe me-
Charlie walked over to him, arms length away, touching his face with a soft smile on her lips.
"Like a sign, like a dream, you're my amaranthine
You are all I needed, believe me
Like we drift in a stream, your beauty serene
There's nothing else in life I ever need
My dream, amaranthine
The song was over and everyone started clapping- even Alastor.
Maybe it had been messy.
Maybe he overreacted and Charlie had been a little bit of a bitch.
It had been a big misunderstanding but….
She was his now.
Husk grabbed her by the hips and pulled her into his lap.
"You wanna be my girl?" he asked.
"Yes I do."
Then Charlie proceeded to cover his lips in red lipstick.
Maybe he did already love her after all.
The song is Amaranthine by Amaranthe. I love the song very much and I felt it was rather fitting.
