AN: Grab your tissues, hankies etc cause shits about to go down with some HuskerDust fluffiness and emotional crying.

The sight of the hotel was a welcome sight to the duo, Husk is still carrying Angel, who was yapping up a storm and being carefree despite what happened a few minutes prior. 

"Aaaaand we're comin' in hot, bitches and assholes!" Angel said loudly with a grin.

"Stop." Husk told him but was ignored which wasn't new.

"Can he stick the landin'? Or will he drop his sexy cargo like a sack'a potatoes when his back gives out~?" Angel joked as Husk rolled his eyes at that as they came close to the ground.

"Maybe you'll finally shut the fuck up if I do." Husk said as Angel shrugged.

"Eh. Can't be worse than the otha' times I've busted my ass." He said which confused Husk as he looked at him as they landed.

"What ass?" He asked in confusion and Angel sent him a teasing grin.

"Ooh ya been lookin'! Good ta know~" Angel said with a sly smile.

"And lookit that! Ten outta' ten landin', Husky~" Angel said with that same sly smile.

"Yeah, yeah." Husk said as he averted his eyes from him.

"Rescue was a bit shaky but hey! Gotta take what I get wit' you noticin' me fer once~" Angel said with a small laugh.

"'s nothing new." Husk mumbled but it was loud enough for Angel to hear as his smile dropped a little and looked at Husk in confusion.

"What...?" He asked as he took notice of Husk's face.

His cheeks have a light blush on it and he was averting his eyes.

Husk needs to get this off his chest and now seems like the perfect opportunity to do it.

"I SAID IT'S-! ...fuck." Husk snapped but stopped himself and sighed. 

"Look... I'm not good at talkin'. About 'feelings' and shit, anyway. But..." Husk started as he tightened his hold on Angel a little as if for support.

"Yer a yappy fucker, so... I'm gonna fuckin' try, okay?" Husk said nervously as his heart was hammering against his chest.

"Cause I, uh... I care about you." Husk admitted and Angel's heart did a 360 at that but the voice of his tormentor was echoing in his mind.

"Oh, Angel Baby~ He's lying~"

"More than I thought I would... I guess." Husk continued as his blush darkened a little.

"He pities you~ NOBODY WANTS YOU." 

The words echoed in his mind and his sight became red while Husk was talking.

"But I'm not expectin' ya to do crap ya don't wanna do! And- shit. Gimmie a sec, goddamnit-" Husk fumbled nervously as he scratched his cheek but was cut off.

"SHUT UP." That made him look at Angel only to be grabbed by the tie as he gave a look of surprise as he was startled by it.

"FUCKIN' SHUT UP... AND STOP LYIN' TO ME, YA ASSHOLE!!! I FUCKIN' KNOW YA ARE..." Angel yelled at him in denial before his voice dropped down slightly as tears welled up in his eyes and started to fall.

"Ya have to be lyin' so... stop it..." Angel begged him as a sob escaped his mouth as Husk stared at him in bewilderment.

One moment he was pouring his heart out and confessing to Angel that he cares about him a lot the next thing he knows, Angel is grabbing him by his tie and yelling at his face and was now downright crying in front of him. The look of denial, hurt, sadness, fear and anger in those eyes that he fell in love with made his heart ache painfully that he had to get Angel to shut up and listen to what he has to say.

"No." Husk said with a stern look as Angel loosened his grip on the tie in confusion.

"Wha-" Angel started in confusion but Husk didn't let him continue. Angel needs to hear this and now.

"NO! I ain't hearin' this crap! So YOU'RE gonna stand here and listen while I tell ya why you're fulla bullshit!" Husk snapped at him angrily. Despite the anger he was feeling towards Valentino and what Angel is saying, he set Angel down on his feet gently.

"I flew your ass outta gettin' shot up with HOLY BULLETS! Got a haircut I DIDN'T fuckin' need! And sat through your  goddamn, noisy-ass YAMMERIN' all the way here! You're a smartass, dolled up a sack of fluff that's flouncin' around in my face every fuckin' day! And the worst fuckin' thing..." Husk said as he held Angel's hand as he got him to let his tie go and held Angel's hands in his as the spider looked at him in shock and silence as tears continue to pour down his face.

"...is that I like it. And I hate what that fuckin' rat bastard does to ya. Shuts you up. Makes you back down like it's nothing. It's fucked up and I hate it." New tears started to fall as Angel tried to stop the small whimper from escaping as he tried to stop his tears. 

Husk rubbed his thumb over Angel's hand to comfort him as he looked down. 

"I just- ... I like you. A lot. I'm not really... ready to say more than that." Husk said before he took a deep breath.

"I just want you to be happ- HRK!!!" Husk was cut off as arms wrapped around him in a tight yet gentle hug as his fur bristled from the sudden contact but he slowly relaxed as he put his arms around Angel lightly and looked at him in confusion and concern.

"Uh... Angel?" Husk called him as he heard a small sniff.

"Just... Just gimmie a minute." Angel shakily told him and Husk looked at him as his eyes softened.

"Okay." He simply said as he knows that Angel needs this more than ever.

"The fuck's that supposed to mean anyways? 'Not ready', my ass. Fuck you. I ain't fuckin' stupid, ya old bastard." Angel said as he tried to process what Husk just said. 

Does he really mean it? Does he like-like him? Is he fucking serious? If so, when did he start liking him?

"Yeah. I know. You're pretty fuckin' smart, Legs." Husk gently told him as he patted his head and it made Angel cry softly onto his shoulder.

"It's funny. This close to a guy..." Angel started as he sniffed a little as Husk returned his hug.

"Hmm?" Husk hummed lightly.

"I-I'm usually gettin' some action. Never used 'em as a snot rag before." Angel suddenly said and that seriously ruined the moment and Husk's fur bristled in disgust and revolt and he pulled Angel away from him a bit.

"Okay, that's enough. Get off." Husk told him and the look on his face made Angel laugh, a genuine laugh. 

"Pfft- HAHAHA!!! I-I was just messin', Husky!" Angel giggled.

"MY ASS, YOU WERE!!! If I gotta take a fuckin' bath after this, I swear to-!" Husk said but Angel stopped him by putting his hand on his cheek gently as Husk looked at his hand.

"HUSK." Angel called him as Husk stopped.

"You're good. I'm good... Capiche?" Angel said as Husk fought the urge to roll his eyes and looked at him with a deadpan look.

"Yeah, well... ya better be after I spilled my gu- !?" Husk said but stopped as his eyes widened by what he was seeing.

"What's up? Cat got ya tongue? Heheh~" Angel asked with a small giggle but Husk was still speechless.

What the fuck is he seeing?! Instead of a white and pink spider, in front of him stood a young, innocent looking human male that looked exactly like Angel Dust and the sight of those soft brown almost red colored eyes on those human eyes as a small blush accompanied by small freckles dusted his cheeks with a almost white hair sitting on his head and he was smiling, the most beautiful smile he has ever seen and it was directed to him.

"Wha- Angel, you..." Husk struggled to find the words as Angel looked at him in confusion. Is he okay?

"Uh... What's wrong? Did Val fuck up my face that bad?" Angel asked him in concern and confusion.

"Ah-!" That snapped him out of it as he blinked his eyes and the human who's captivated him returned back to the spider he knew and he rubbed his eyes quickly. What the fuck was that?!

"N-Nothin'! I'm gettin' too sober, is what's wrong!" Husk said as he stopped a blush from forming. He couldn't forget the way that innocent face looked at him with that smile.

'Fuckin' hell, I must be seein' shit.' He thought before walking towards the hotel's door.

"C'mon, Legs.  We both need a drink." Husk said but Angel didn't answer as he was looking at him curiously.

A blush started to form his cheeks as he tilted his head at what he was seeing. Instead of Husk heading to the door, it was a man, a little older from the looks of it and he has Husk's wings too.

"I'll make ya one'a those fruity-ass martinis you love so goddamn much. Dunno why. Gimmie a shot of straight whiskey anyday." Husk said as he stopped by the door and turned to him slightly and his heart did another 360 by the sight of such a handsome complexion that was adorned by the same grouch look Husk has and those golden orbs that stared into his eyes.

"You comin' or what? Well?" Husk asked as Angel blinked and Husk in his normal form was there and he couldn't stop the small smile.

"Heh~ Hold up, Husky. Ya forgot somethin'." Angel said as he walked up towards him as he looked confused and turned to him.

"Huh? What're ya-?" Husk started to ask but was cut off when a pair of lips met his and stopped him mid sentence. 

His eyes widened in surprised as his wings flared up a little while his fur bristled from it. A blush started to form on his cheeks as Angel gave him a gentle and genuine kiss while holding his cheek. 

Before Husk could respond to it, Angel pulled away and walked to the door as Husk was still frozen from the kiss.

"There! Yer reward fer rescuin' the damsel in distress~" Angel said as he opened the door.

"Also... I gotta say, Husky..." Angel said as he turned to Husk who was still frozen.

"Ya were lookin' even hotta' than usual just now~" He said slyly and that was able to snap Husk out of his frozen state and gave him a rather flustered look.

"WHU-?! OH, FUCK OFF! JUST TELL ME WHAT YA WANT, ALREADY!!!" Husk snapped with a still flustered look.

"I'll take 'sex on the beach'. Any good beaches 'round here~?" Angel slyly teased as Husk walked up to him with an annoyed and fond glare.

"YOU KNOW I MEANT YER DRINK, SMARTASS!!!" Husk told him and Angel couldn't help but giggle.

"Hehe~ Sorry, Husky. Couldn't resist that one~" Angel giggled as they both went inside the hotel to the bar section.

"Ugh. You'd drive me to drink if it wasn't my fuckin' hobby, Legs." Husk told him with a fond look as they both entered and closed the door behind them.
