Chapter 11: What "Poison"?

The next day, Y/N was wondering about what she would need for the night out with Angel, so she decided to go ask him. She got off the couch in the lobby before turning to Alastor.

"Alastor, have you seen Angel?" she asked.

"If I had to guess, he would be in his room. Why do you ask?" Alastor wondered, the smile evident he was such a snoop.

"No reason. Just need to ask him something," Y/N answered politely then quickly left before he could continue.

She made it to Angel's room, but just before she could knock on his door, she heard him singing.

[ANGEL:]
"I'm not above love to cash in
Another lover underneath those flashin' lights
Another one of those ruthless nights
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I shoulda guessed that this would happen
I shoulda known it when I looked in your red-hot eyes
Spewin' all your red-hot lies
Yeah, yeah, yeah

What's the worst part of this hell?
I can only blame myself

'Cause I know you're poison, you're feedin' me poison
Addicted to this feelin', I can't help but swallow up your poison
I made my choice, and every night, I'm livin' like there's no tomorrow

Oh-oh, oh-oh
Any way you want me, baby, that's the way you got me
I'll be yours
My story's gonna end with me dead from your poison

I got so good at bein' untrue
I got so good at tellin' you what you wanna hear
I disassociate, disappear
Yeah, yeah, yeah

So far beyond difficult to resist another gulp

Yeah, I know it's poison, you're feedin' me poison
I'm chokin' from the taste and I can't help but swallow up your poison
I made my choice, and every night, I'm wasted like there's no tomorrow

Oh-oh, oh-oh
Any way you want me, baby, that's the way you got me
I'll be yours
My story's gonna end with me dead from your poison

Poison, I'm drownin' in poison
I'm fillin' up my glass, but it's always hollow
Full of poison, I'm sick of the poison
Wish I had somethin' to live for tomorrow"

During the last part, she could hear his voice almost tremble before he started crying. She figured everything he sang about had to be about work, making her want to help him. She knocked on the door, hearing shuffling before Angel eventually opened the door with a smile she knew wasn't real after what she heard.

"Hey, Gorgeous. What's up?" he asked.

She could tell he was hiding something, but she didn't want him to know that.

"I just had a thought about tonight. Since you said you don't really know a spot to take me, I might know one," she told him.

"Really. I can't wait to see what you have in mind," he smirked.

Then Fat Nuggets ran to her, making her giggle and pick him up.

"Hey, Nuggy. You being good for Daddy Angel?" she asked then added, "I know you are."

Angel chuckled at that before she gave Fat Nuggets to him.

"So I'll meet you in the lobby tonight?" he asked.

"Sounds good," Y/N nodded.

And with that, they went their separate ways. She hoped that what she had in mind would have Angel forget the poison he mentioned.

A/N I absolutely love that song, but I hate the situation. I hate that for Angel.
