Of all the arguments Angel and Alastor had ever had, this had to have been the worst one yet to come. Angel especially knew that. The second he met Alastor's gaze and he told him to go to their room, he knew things were not going to be pretty. Knowing Al, the Radio Demon had quite the temper. Whether it came to brutally murdering anyone who catcalled Angel, or just going off on those who just made Angel frown. This was going to be worse than any argument they had, had before they were ever an item. Worse than Angel going back to smoking. Worse than when Angel said Alastor meant nothing to him. Worse than when Alastor considered abandoning the love of his life. Worse than the argument they had not too long ago. This was going to be worse than any punishment God could give. Now you may be thinking, 'how can a fight be worse than any smite God himself could give'? This wasn't physical pain or punishment. No no, it's deeper.

Angel had broken Alastor's heart. Even if the spider did not mean to, and it wasn't what it seemed, Angel knew he had hurt Alastor worse than he ever had before. His Bambi, his fiancé believwd he had cheated, or tried to at least. And for what? Some money?

This is what hit the feminine man harder than any dick had during a fuck.

He had fucked up. Big time.

For what seemed like hours in the night, Angel sat on the bed and waited for Alastor to come. The pentagram sun was poking over the horizon now, the spider ready to pass out.

Finally, the door swung up to reveal the dark silhouette of the Radio Demon. Angel's head jerked to meet crimson eyes, only to find those red psychotic eyes he loved so much were stained with tears.

Was he crying? Angel asked himself internally, getting up to talk to the red demon.

Alastor put up a hand, motioning the spider to sit back down. Of course, the feminine man followed the unspoken order and took a seat, Al sitting before him. An awkward silence took over, lasting for around 1-3 minutes. Angel was growing anxious, who was going to speak first? What.. would he say? He knew when Alastor was angry, he was.. angry. Now that the sun was rising, he could get a better look at the deer. Alastor was covered in blood, blood of others. His lips were stained with it, the scarlet liquid dried up on his mouth and chin where it would have been dripping.

Finally, someone started. "Al...I..-"

"You what?" There was the snap Angel anticipated.

The spider whimpered a little, looking away for a second. What was he supposed to say? He had to say something!

Alastor wasn't smiling. In fact, he was frowning and glaring hard at the ex-pornstar. Suddenly, Angel glared back. He wasn't going down in this without getting his say. Alastor always won their fights or they had a draw, now it was his turn.

"Alright Radio brat, stop being pissy for two seconds and actually let me get my say! Stop being so damn stubborn!"

The deer hissed, growling at the other.

"Stop?! STOP?! Angel, how in the 9 circles do you expect me to STOP?! You were going to sleep with another man!!"

"No I wasn't Alastor! I-"

"Ohhhh sureee!! Mmhm, you weren't? I SAW YOU SEDUCING HIM!!"

Forget calmly talking this out. Both of them knew it would be a fight, and here it was. The screaming went on for a few minutes, Angel trying to speak but Alastor just debunking him and yelling. As much as Angel tried, he knew getting to reason with a mad Radio Demon was near to impossible.

"For the last time Alastor, I wasn't going to fuck him!!"

"Oh su-"

"SHUT UP!! SHUT UP!" Angel screamed, holding his head.

"I DIDNT cheat!! I was trying to seduce him, and then kill him and take his money! I wasn't going to fuck him, I just wanted to help Al you have to believe me!" The spider had tears streaming down his face now.

Alastor knew he wasn't lying. But he couldn't let this go so easily.

"Angel... listen,"

There was another awkward silence.

"You cannot keep- lying to me.. when we were first together, you lied about how you felt. I am in no clearing there, but then you lied about being fine with our work schedules. Then smoking, now you didn't even tell me your plan? If you had just.. talked to me-"

"Al I-"

"How am I going to be able to trust you in a marriage?"

What was the answer to that? Why couldn't Angel speak? What.. was he supposed to say?

"I.."

"How.. how am I supposed to know you'll tell me the truth? How do I know if..if you really care? That this matters to you? That- that me or any of our potential future children matter to you?!"

The feminine spider's eyes welled with tears once more, biting his lip harshly. He couldn't take this. He couldn't stay here- he couldn't do this.

Angel Dust got up swiftly and grabbed his pink striped blazer, inhaling deeply as he began to look for his keys.

"A-Angel?"

"I'm sorry Alastor- I.. I just-" there was nothing left to say. Nothing but pain. With that, the spider left their cheap motel room, leaving the deer demon alone.

Alastor sat on the bed motionless, staring ahead into the dim light of the pentagram sun that was nearly over the horizon. His dead heart couldn't have felt more broken, maybe he should have gone softer.. was he too harsh? Angel has lied but- weren't couples suppose to work through problems together? Even so.. all he felt was immense pain in the stone cold heart that spider made soft and warm.

He wanted Angel back.. but what was even the situation now?

Angel arrived to a nearby gas station, head hung low as he entered. A few demons from inside looked in his direction as the bell on the door rung, but quickly went back to whatever they were doing. The spider cocked his small hand gun, a much better plan to get money than what he had done with Alastor. He then shot the store clerk and the shoppers.

Stepping over their bodies Angel went into the medical section, searching for the only thing that could make him feel the relief he needed.
