Summary
Husk was about ready to start ripping out his fur in worry when he had to dive across the bar to answer the call. He spared Angel’s name the barest glance before he cradled the phone to his ear.
“Angel?”
There was silence for a few seconds, then some quiet shuffling. Husk wondered briefly if he’d accidentally dialled out on his way back or something. But then he heard a barely audible whimper and felt his heart fall into his stomach. It sounded pained. Scared. Clearly Angel, but not a sound that he’d ever heard him make before no matter how beaten up he was.
He waited a few more beats, heard another shuddering breath, and tightened his grip on the phone so much he heard it creak.
“Angel, baby. I’m gonna need you to say something.”
For another terrible second there was still no response, though he heard what sounded like a body hitting the ground. He wasn’t sure whether the broken laugh that came down the phone next was reassuring or sickening.
“Sorry, Whiskers. I’ve just…” Angel cut himself off with a spatter of painful sounding coughs, “I’ve uh…had a bad night.”

Or, Husk gets a call for help from Angel and drops everything to help him (Because they’re in love, Your honor!)
