It was a seemingly peaceful day within the Hazbin Hotel 2nd. Alastor was humming a tune as he stood upon the top of a ladder, decorating the walls of the main lobby with red and white, heart shaped streamers. And he wasn't the only one.

He, Elijah, Angel, and a few shadow demons were all helping in decorating the hotel in shapes of white, red, and pink. Whether it was balloons, heart decals, streamers, or tables cloths, they were all being set up in preparation for Valentines Day.

As Elijah was in the dinning room area, Angel came walking into the lobby with a box of Valentines decorations for Alastor and his shadow demons to use.

"So, tell me, why are you having us do this?" Angel asked Alastor as he set the box down at the check-in countertop. "Aren't you afraid a' sex, or just... lovin' in general?"

"Valentines Day doesn't have to be about physical intimacy, Angel." Alastor said as he finished up with the streamers he currently had.

"Oh, yeah? Why don't you tell that to the special movies we gotta make down at the porn studio every year? Hahahaha!" Angel gave his rebuttal with a laugh.

Alastor's eye twitched at this before he started to climb down the ladder. "That is your definition. Valentines Day is about true passion and emotion individuals feel for one another."

"Oh, believe me. It gets real passionate and emotional every year at the studio." Angel said with a chuckle as Alastor had gotten back to the floor.

The Radio Demon gave an irritated him before walking over to the box that Angel had brought with him. "Besides that, it was Villetta's idea for the decorations, and Elijah went along with it. Usually on Valentines Day I would simply have dinner with Rosie. Though instead of sharing candy hearts, we share actual hearts."

"Woah, wait a minute. You got a girlfriend?" Angel asked with a surprised look.

"No! We're acquaintances. Friends! Our relationship is only that of close friendship built upon similar likes." Alastor corrected Angel.

"Ya sure about that?" Angel asked with a teasing smirk. "You got pretty defensive there, Al. You ain't trying ta hide anything are you?"

"Oh hoho! Are you just the character, Angel." Alastor said to the spider demon with annoyed smile as he started to open the box.

From out of the box, Alastor pulled out a large, folded, Valentine's Day banner.

"Now, just to get this set up and the lobby will be finished." Alastor said as used his powers to levitate the ladder over to him.

The Radio Demon proceeded to climb the ladder once more with one end of the banner in hand. Once he got to the top, Alastor started to hook his end of the banner upon the ceiling. Then then snapped his fingers, summoning another ladder.

"Would you be a good fellow, Angel, and help me hook up this banner?" Alastor asked the gay pornstar.

Angel shrugged in compliance as Alastor used his powers to levitate the other end of the banner to Angel. As the spider demon took hold of it, he started to climb all the way to the top of the ladder, and proceeded to hook of the other end.

Once they were done, Alastor and Angel climbed down from their respect ladders and looked at their completed work.

"And, voila!" Alastor shouted with open arms, in regards to their work.

Just then, Elijah came walking out from the dinning room, wiping a bit of sweat from his head as his mother tailed behind him.

"Oh, good, you guys are done." Elijah said with a sigh a relief.

"You see? I told you all this place would look good with Valentines decorations." Villetta said with a sweet smile.

"Meh. Pink isn't really my color." Alastor said with a shrug.

"Oh, by the way, you three need to get going to Gosha Academy. Shiranui called me and said her daughter and a few other students are working on a Valentines Day party, and that they need some help." Villetta said to Elijah, Alastor, and Angel. "So, naturally, I said you three would be more than happy to help."

Elijah couldn't help but sigh at his mother's decision while Angel just groaned.

"Great! More work." Angel said with an eye roll.

"Calm down, Angel. It's not like we won't be doing anything that we haven't already been doing today." Elijah said to the pornstar.

"Hey, I don't set up the scene. I just read the script, and go down." Angel said with crossed arms.

Elijah gave an awkward, cringed look to what Angel said as Alastor sighed.

"Well, if you boys don't mind, I'll be doing some inventory in the kitchen." Villetta said as she walked back towards the direction of the dinning room.

"Well, it would seem we have more work ahead of us, for the day." Alastor said with a smile before turning his head towards the spider demon. "Angel, you have your human disguise?"

Angel, with a slightly bored look, snapped his fingers as he spoke. "Ya know, I knew I was forgettin' something back in Hell."

"Of course." Alastor said with a sigh. "Very well. It looks like we're going to need a van."

Much latter, Elijah was driving a red and black van, Angel sitting in the back as Alastor took comfort in Elijah's head, humming a tune as the three made their way to Gosha Academy.

"You just had to pick this type of van, didn't you?" Elijah asked Alastor with a sigh.

Alastor stopped his humming as he rose his brow at Elijah. Alastor then projected himself in shadow form as he spoke to Elijah.

"What are you complaining about? It's not even shade of white, let alone having anything to do with said color."

"It's the type of van is far more common than the color!" Elijah shouted back at Alastor.

"He's got a point, ya know." Angel said from the back, the wall separating the drivers seat and the back muffling his voice.

"Nobody asked you." Alastor said to Angel with an eye roll.

Soon enough, The three arrived at Gosha Academy. Elijah and Alastor did their best to make sure that Angel wasn't seen by any human outside of the Academy on their way in before they started to wander the halls of the Taimanin school.

Eventually the demonic trio had ran into Asagi and Shiranui.

"Oh, good." Shiranui said to Elijah, Alastor, and Angel. "You're here."

"Of course. We're always willing to help." Elijah said to Shiranui with a smile. "Even if it's my mother makes the decision for us."

Shiranui and Asagi chuckled a bit at Elijah's words before Asagi spoke.

"Well, we're setting things up in the gym." Asagi said. "If you'll follow us, we can finish things up."

The two senior Taimanin let the three towards the gymnasium, and upon entry it was already covered in Valentines Day decor of pink, white, and red. They even spotted Murasaki finishing up with some streamers while Yukikaze, Rinko, and Sakura were working on tables.

Angel looked around the gym with a raised brow before he spoke. "Ya know, when you needed help, I was under the assumption that there was still stuff to do."

"Yeah, I'm with Angel on this. I kind of thought you needed help decorating." Elijah said.

"Well, believe it or not, there's still more decorating to do, but there's also another issue we have." Asagi said. "We still need to figure out what music we're going to play at the party, and we thought that you three would be the best choices to help us out."

"Well then, you came to the right men." Alastor said with a smile as Murasaki, Sakura, Yukikaze, and Rinko walked up to them, Rinko holding a boombox.

Rinko placed the boombox down, next to her, as Yukikaze started to explain. "While we do need a few more songs to fill up the party's time slot, the four of us have already thought of a few songs, and we'd like to hear your thoughts on them."

"I wanna go first!" Sakura said excitedly as she went over to the boombox. "Here's one me and Murasaki came up with."

Sakura then pressed the button that began to play a song all too familiar with Angel.

"🎶Pack your bags
Sun's out
Take a Vacay babe
Take it straight to Bonetown🎶"

"Verosika Mayday?" Angel asked with a raised brow.

"The pop star?" Elijah asked.

"The singing quiff?" Alastor asked, his eyes slightly furrowed in annoyance at the song Sakura and Murasaki chose.

"What's a quiff?" Sakura asked.

"Don't ask." Elijah said to her.

"Wait, you tellin' me that you and Murasaki thought that you could use this song for you shindig?" Angel asked.

Sakura merely nodded her head with a smile as Murasaki glanced off to the side, a small blush of embarrassment starting to grow.

"You and Murasaki? Hell, let me regrade that. Murasaki, one of the least perverted people here, though you could use this song?" Angel asked as a small smirk grew on his face.

"I don't see what's the issue. Me and Murasaki always listen to Verosika Mayday when we study together." Sakura said.

"Sakura, please, shut up." Murasaki said as her embarrassment grew.

"Ohoho, the shame. Hehehehe." Angel said with a small chuckle.

"If you're gonna use a song like that, you should probably make sure no one spikes any drinks." Elijah suggested. "And make sure no one tries to do anything too risqué."

"I completely agree. Play that song at your own risk. Mark my words, if things are not kept in check, people are going to wake up in the morning with certain diseases." Alastor said.

"Can you blame them though? The song does bring out a certain mood." Shiranui said as she slowly walked behind Elijah before she wrapper her arms around him, pressing her large breasts on his back and causing him to turn as red as Alastor's suit. "I wouldn't mind listening to it while having a little "fun."

"Mom!" Yukikaze shouted at her mother in embarrassment.

"I am slowly not liking where this is going." Alastor said with a shake of his head.

It was then that Rinko cleared her throat, getting everyone's attention as she played a different song on the boombox. "Well, this is what Yukikaze and I think we should use."

"🎶 Can you feel the love tonight
The peace the evening brings
The world for once in perfect harmony
With all its living things🎶"

"I feel like that's a little too predictable." Alastor shook his head with a small chuckle.

"What? Are you saying you can do better?" Yukikaze asked Alastor while putting a hand on her hip.

"Ha! Do you even have to ask?" Alastor rhetorically asked with a sly grin before using his powers to change the song on the boombox.

"Now, the song I have in mind is a little after my time, but I find it to be quite the calming melody." Alastor said as the song played.

"🎶 I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
When it's cold outside
I've got the month of May
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way🎶"

"🎶My girl, my girl, my girl
Talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl🎶"

"You think that's better than the songs we chose?" Sakura asked Alastor with a raised brow while pointing her thumb at herself and her friends.

"When pitted against the std spreader and the Lion King? I think I have you all beat." Alastor said.

"As if!" Yukikaze shouted back.

"Okay, okay. Before we get into an argument about who's song is better, why don't we agree to just use the songs for the party?" Elijah suggested.

"You can't seriously suggest that we allow them to use those songs for a party." Alastor said to Elijah.

"Hey, if we don't use our songs, we don't use yours." Rinko said with crossed arms.

Alastor merely rolled her eyes at her.

"We are using everyone's songs." Elijah made clear. "Now, does anyone else have any ideas?"

"I have one, actually." Asagi said as she walked over to the boombox and pressed the button. "I've only heard this song a few times, but I think it's perfect for Valentines Day."

"🎶 I love you, baby
And if it's quite alright
I need you, baby
To warm the lonely night
I love you, baby
Trust in me when I say🎶"

"Ah, Frankie Valli. Classic. Good choice." Elijah smiled at Asagi with a nod.

"Thanks." Asagi said to him with a small tinge of pink in her cheeks.

"I guess I should go next." Shiranui said as she walked over to the boombox, pressing the button and allowing a new song to be played.

"🎶 This time before you run to her
Leaving me alone and hurt🎶"

"🎶Think it over
Haven't I been good to you
Think it over
Haven't I been sweet to you🎶"

"🎶Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart🎶"

"See? Shiranui here understands real music." Alastor said while patting Yukikaze's mother on the shoulder.

"Whatever." Murasaki said with an eye roll.

"We still need one more song." Rinko said.

"I've got an idea." Angel said with an even look.

"Oh, I'm sure you do Angel, but I don't believe the students attending this party need to hear anything foul and perverted." Alastor waved off the pornstar.

"Hey, I'm being serious!" Angel shouted back at the Radio Demon.

"Well, if he's really being serious, then maybe we should hear what he wants to suggest." Elijah said.

Alastor looked at Elijah for a moment, and after blinking his eyes, he started to laugh uncontrollably. "Oh! Ohohohohohoho! And here I thought I was the only two of us with actual comedic talent. Hahahaha!"

"The only comedic talent you have is being a hack." Angel muttered with narrowed eyes.

"Well, Alastor, you're probably going to laugh even harder when I say that I'm just as serious as Angel." Elijah said with crossed arms.

Alastor paused in his laughter as he looked at Elijah once more. "...You're right! HAHAHAHA!! HAHAHAHA!"

Elijah just rolled his eyes at Alastor. "Just let him play his damn song."

"Oh, fine." Alastor drawled out as his laughter started to subside.

"Well, since you're done laughin' your ass off, ya think you hit the lights? I don't want to go about this all tacky." Angel asked of the Radio Demon.

With a small eye roll, Alastor snapped his fingers, causing the gym lights to go out.

"Oh, not again." Murasaki groaned in remembrance of when Alastor sang to herself, Asagi, and Sakura.

Just then, a spotlight came on, moving towards the direction of Angel, who was now sitting on one of the tables, a mic in one hand and an accordion in two of his others as he was leant back a bit. With a confident yet calm smirk on his face, Angel then started to sing.

"🎶 Oh this is the night
Its a beautiful night
And we call it Belle Notte🎶"

"🎶Look at the skies
They have stars in their eyes
On this lovely Belle Notte🎶"

"🎶Side by side
With your loved one
You'll find enchantment here🎶"

"🎶The night will weave its magic spell
When the one you love is near🎶"

"🎶Oh, this is the night
And the heavens are right
On this lovely Belle Notte🎶"

As Angel finished with his song, the lights came on as he looked to his audience with a smirk on his face.

Alastor was blinking rapidly in surprise while Elijah had wide eyes, slowly clapping as he did so. Murasaki had an agape jaw in shock as Shiranui had a smile on her face, everyone else sniffling a bit with a few tears running from their eyes.

"That... that was beautiful." Sakura sniffled as she wiped away a tear.

"Thanks." Angel said as he stood up from the table, walking back to the group as he tossed the mic and accordion in a random direction. "Ya know, working in the porn industry helps you to find out you can stretch your vocals in ways you didn't think were possible."

"And the moments ruined." Elijah deadpanned as Angel merely shrugged.

"Well if that's all, what say we get back to the hotel, eh? I've got a date with the spa." Angel asked as he inspected the back of his hand. "It takes a lot of effort to keep up these good looks."

Asagi had just finished wiping away the last of her tears as she answered Angel. "Actual, there's still some more decorating to do."

"How much/How much?" Elijah and Alastor asked at the same time.

"Oh, you know, just the rest of Gosha Academy." Murasaki said to them with a small smirk.

The demonic trio each widened their eyes, blinking a it before Angel expressed his feelings on the mattered.

"FuUuck!" Angel yelled.

Elijah just sighed as he went to pick up a box of decorations. "Come on. If we work together, we can get it done faster."

Alastor used his powers to levitate a few box's over to him and Angel as the two demons and Elijah walked off to others areas of the school.

"Ugh! This is worse than when Charlie wants us to decorate." Angel complained.

"If decorating makes you this cross, than I'm more than happy to do more. Hahahaha!" Alastor laughed as they continued to walk off.

"Oh, go fuck yourself." Angel flipped Alastor off.

Elijah just shook his head with a sigh. "So this is what it's like to be around an old married couple."
