Chapter 9: Meeting Cherri

A couple more months went by and Y/N was loving every minute in the hotel. After getting to know all of them, she felt they were another family to her. Even Alastor, as long as she didn't make a deal with him that involved her soul.

She and Angel even got closer, especially after him trusting her with watching Fat Nuggets. They exchanged numbers after that as well.

One day, they were in the lobby, Angel and Y/N texting each other. Angel started with a funny text.

"How much you wanna bet Smiles is a strawberry pimp? 😏"

Y/N snickered before looking at Angel who was smirking. She quickly responded back.

"😂 It wouldn't surprise me tbh."

Angel shook his head with a smile and was about to respond when an explosion went off, making Y/N accidentally jump in Angel's lap.

"What up, bitches?!" a voice sounded.

"Hey, Cherri!" Angel greeted happily.

Then he and Y/N noticed their position, making them blush. Y/N got off his lap, moving some hair behind her ear.

"What are you doing here?" he asked.

"I was in the neighborhood and I thought we could tear shit up like old times," Cherri answered.

"Oh I'm in!" Angel cheered, looked at Y/N, then introduced, "Oh! This is Y/N; she actually saw our performances at Club 666 a few months ago."

"No shit!" Cherri exclaimed then told her, "So, you're the girl Angie won't shut up about. Cool to meet ya."

"Same with you," Y/N smiled.

Even though she meant it, Y/N felt a bit jealous when she saw Cherri, besides the club. She felt Cherri matched Angel's personality a lot better than hers.

"So, you ready to go?" Cherri asked him.

"You know it!" Angel said then wondered, "You wanna come, Y/N?"

"Thanks, but I'm not feeling the best right now. But hey, let me know how it goes," Y/N told him with a sad smile.

Angel could tell she was hiding something, but he didn't pry into it.

"Okay. See ya later," Angel told her.

They then left and Y/N frowned as she headed up the stairs to her room. As she did, she remembered some moments with her and Angel, but tried to not get her hopes up.

[Y/N:]
"Hands touch, eyes meet
Sudden silence, sudden heat
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl

Don't dream too far
Don't lose sight of who you are
Don't remember that rush of joy
He could be that boy
I'm not that girl

Every so often we long to steal
To the land of what-might-have-been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in

Blithe smile, lithe limb
She who's winsome, she wins him
Gives him such a whirl
That's the girl he chose
And Heaven knows
I'm not that girl"

By then, she got to her room, closed the door, and laid on the bed.

"Don't wish, don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart
I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl
There's a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl"

She sighed as she laid in bed while hearing the chaos that Angel and Cherri were causing.

A/N Well, that was depressing. Thanks me! (Note the sarcasm.)
