Angel and Alastor woke up and groaned, Ashleigh was crying again, Angel rolled over and looked over Alastor to check the time, 4:27am, 17th of December. He sighed, they were woken up about half an hour ago by her cries,
"I'll go take care o' her..." Angel said sitting up and rubbing his eyes. Alastor put his hand on Angels leg and turned around to face him,
"I'll come with..." He said trying to sit up aswell, Angel pushed him back down,
"Don't ya do anything babe. I can handle it." He said, Alastor sighed and nodded, smiling sleepily at Angel. Angel swung himself around and out of bed, opening and closing the door softly behind him, making a small click.

Ashleigh was now a little over a week old, she was hell to take care of though. She would cry in the night and hadn't had control of her powers causing a bit of destruction in the hotel. Angel opened Ashleigh's door and dodged a tenticale,
"Baby, it's Mama I ain't gonna hurt ya." He said making his way towards the crib, he referred to himself as Mama because he liked that more. Ashleigh calmed down slightly at her Ma's voice. Angel sighed and leaned down to pick up his child. He rocked her in his arms, sitting down on a chair beside the crib, Ashleigh cooed happily. Angel softly sang a lullaby to Ashleigh, it usually worked on her. Suddenly he looked up and saw the door knob move down, the door opened,
"Al I said I could handle her on my own- Oh hey Vag's" Angel smiled at his friend.

Vaggie moved the hair out of her eyes and smiled at Angel, sitting down beside him,
"Jesus that child is loud, ya good?" Vaggie said petting Ashleigh on the head, earning a tiered giggle and yawn. Angel smiled,
"I'm fine! She's just being a little demon, probably gonna take her in bed with me and Al if she don't shut up." Angel said, laughing softly. Vaggie sighed,
"Hon, your not okay, it's almost Christmas and Charlie's forcing us to go full out and you've got an extra demon to take care of while dealing with I can't imagine what else including Val." Just the mention of his name made Angel jump which just proved Vaggies point even more. Angel sighed and looked at her friend,
"Yer right. But what can I do about it? I just gotta deal with it." He said looking down at Ashleigh and sighing in relief seeing that she was finally asleep once more. Vaggie got up and looked Angel dead in the eye,
"You don't have to deal with it on your own! We are here! Tell you what, next time Ashleigh is crying again, don't get up, let me and the others handle it." She said as quietly as possible but still sort of shouting.

Angel knew he couldn't argue with the other demon so he nodded and smiled at his friend,
"What would I do without a friend like ya? Yer the best Vag's, love ya." He got up, hugging Vaggie while still holding Ashleigh in his third set of arms. Vaggie smiled and they left the room silently,
"Night Angel, love ya."
"Night Vag's, love ya too."

(Author's note this is not a ship that would be weird this is just a really close friendship okay?)

Angel opened the door once more, he looked over to see if Alastor was still up, Alastor smiled at him,
"Ah I see it's one of these nights again then?" Alastor said as Angel placed Ashliegh in the bed between the two older demons. Angel nodded and chuckled softly,
"Ya know ya love her anyway, and my god she loves ya." Angel said hopping into bed and wrapping her arms around the little demon. Alastor chuckled and turned to face Angel and Ashleigh, he also wrapped his arms around both Ashleigh and his dear love Angel. Angel smiled and closed his eyes, Alastor watched the two for a moment before trying to sleep himself. One perk of always being woken up is that they fell asleep much faster and slept very well, when they could, it was hard with such a demon in their midst.

"Morning, what's shakin' " Angel said sliding down the stair banister, everyone greeted him cheerfully including Ashliegh who was being fed breakfast by Alastor, he smiled and kissed his boyfriend on the cheek. The room was buzzing with many residents and cheery Christmas songs were playing on the radio, it really didn't seem like hell. Angel sat down next to Charlie and Vaggie, helping them with some paperwork, his phone buzzed a few times but he payed no attention, he didn't care. He was in a good mood this morning which was clearly shown as he was actually helping with paperwork, something he had been doing recently, Charlie was amazed by his improvement,
"Lots of resident's have been doing great, I don't think we will be able to rehabilitate anyone this year..." Charlie said, eyeing Angel and a few other residents,
"I know the extermination is only a few weeks away and ya don't think ya can get anyone, but I'm sure you'll be lucky next year!" Angel said cheerfully, even though he still didn't believe rehabilitation was possible for demons. Charlie smiled at Angel and nodded, smiling bright, Angel laughed with the couple.
