RULES
---------------------------------
Upon the hellish light falling upon the hotel, there was a fellow guest in the hotel who was always up and running around the hotel during the early hours in the morning, you were scrambling around the lobby gently pacing back and forth as you looked forward to your schedule for today's events.
9:23am- Errands
The timetable read in front of you as you made your way to the hotel's doors, gently opening the doors just to hear a sudden meow below you. You looked down to the welcome mat to see a crimson red and dark grey cat, both eyes were big as it shifted its gaze towards you in particular. A red molecule sitting on the cat's left eye cheek as two cute little antlers sat atop of his head, between his two very fluffy ears.
The cat's tail was wagging as it meowed again, the cat yearned for your attention just like your significant other, Alastor. Speaking of Alastor, the cat looked oddly identical to him.
“Awe hello kitty!”
You kneeled down as the cat curled around the lower part of your leg, attempting to rub its scent on you as you placed your hand in between the cat’s fluffy ears. Your thumb gently caresses the cat's antlers as a subtle growl erupted from the cat.
You watched as the cat walked into the hotel, welcoming itself with a meow. Following the cat as it made its way to the couch where keekee took over as her nap spot, a hiss fell from both furry creatures as you stood behind the red covered cat that welcomed itself in.
“Er.. what the tha’ fuck is THAT?”
Angel questioned with confusion as keekee tensed up around the other feline right in front of her, a growl fell from the bar as Husk stared at the red creature.
“He's just a lil baby! Isn't he so cute?”
You gently held the cat up in the air, his tail wagging as you scratched behind his ears.
“Toots, that thing looks like it wants ta’ eat Charlie's cat.”
Angel spoke as he stood up from his spot, his long legs stood straight as he crossed his arms.
“Not ta’ mention that thing looks like smiles.”
A pout fell from your lips as you tilted your head up to look at Angel, his tall figure overpowering yours. The cat in your arms was violently shaking as it reached out to Angel, attempting to hurt the poor star.
A hum fell from the shadows as the room filled with a staticy aura, Alastor emerged from the shadows. The radio demon's gaze shifted to his feline copy directly below him, a sudden loud static filled the air as the feline hissed at alastor.
“Salutations my dear! May you please enlighten me on this mysterious creature you have in your arms?”
Alastor's cheery mood was deteriorating by the second, another wave of static filled the room as Alastor glared at the Feline in your arms. The goosebumps appeared on your arms as you felt the powerful tension in the room, the other cat's in the room glared at the strange creature on the floor.
“I don't know what that is but husky and keekee don't seem pleased with it around here.”
Angel-dust worded quietly as he sat at one of the bars stools, an unamused expression on his face as Alastor and the feline had a territorial glare towards each other.
“You're not planning on keeping it, right cher?”
Alastor spoke out, watching as your face shifted into a small pout. Your eyes sparkled as the tension in the room slowly died down.
“Please Alastor! Just let me keep him!”
Alastor's eye twitched as he let out a static like sigh, he knew you could rely on yourself but your decisions and choices leave him a little timid. His shadow transferred from surface to surface as attempted to view the ruckus caused in the room, a transparent smile formed on its face as it landed right next to you.
A subtle meow fell upon your ears, a purr caught your attention as the feline nuzzled itself against your ankle. The shadow beside you turned sour as a raspy growl fell from the faint figure, it's frowning, something you've never seen your partner do before, you noted. Faint footsteps stepped down the staircase, your close friend, Lucifer made himself known as he announced his arrival.
“What is that?”
Lucifer's announcement was quickly cut short as he stared at the poor cat, a whine falling from your lips as the cat vibrated at the sight of Lucifer.
“Aww! He's just like Alastor!”
“Do not compare me to that hideous, disgusting, filthy rat.”
As the skies of hell shifted darker until it was a very dark red, sinners and demons alike began to fall into slumber. You were lying down on bed, a book in hand as you read through the lines and paragraphs of words, the words slowly mixing in together as you felt your eyelids drooping. The quiet purring caught your attention as the cat nuzzled deeper into your chest, a quiet song playing on the radio on your nightstand.
The pyjamas felt comforting and soft against your skin, lying down and relaxing as the cat on top of you let out a quiet meow. You knew Alastor was a busy man, always staying up late to accommodate himself with duties yet to be done, very unorganised for the big bad radio demon, you thought as a soft and delicate yawn fell from you.
Reaching out to the nightstand, you grabbed your bookmark and slid it between the crevice of the book.
Chapter 26
‘A delicate rose in a thorny bush’
You closed your book and gently placed it beside you, on the cold and empty space beside you. While the adorable cat was loafing on top of you, quietly purring as you were deep in thought. At least I'm not alone tonight. A frown creased its way to your face.
“Now, what's the pout for, Cher?”
A hushed voice spoke as your partner emerged from the shadows, Alastor wore his dark red robe that stopped at his ankles, his crimson red hair was tied back as his features glistened in the light that the lamp provided.
“Alastor! You usually don't join me.”
A surprised tone erupted from you as a smile crept up on your face, your hair was slightly messy due to all the events today while your partner's hair was tied back and neat, he was always a tidy man.
Alastor's gaze shifted to the cat on your chest, purring and nuzzling itself against your chest, his expression turned sour and sighed as he shook his head.
“That cat will sleep on the floor.”
Alastor's shadow picked the cat up and placed it on the floor, causing thoe cat to let out a loud, static hiss as it jumped on the bed and made itself comfortable next to you.
“Rat.”
Alastor growled as he made his way right next to him, the once cold space now warm as you made yourself comfortable. You knew your lover wasn't the biggest fan of touches unless he initiates it, so you made your space with your back facing Alastor and closed your eyes.
