(M|n) woke up with a start, his hand pressed firmly against his chest. His heart was beating uncomfortably fast and it made him feel sick to his stomach. He sat up, letting out a shaky breath. He gasped when he realised that the mask that was usually sitting on his face had fallen off in his sleep.

Frantically, he searched for the item, fearing that he'd lost it. He sighed in relief once he laid his eye on it. With a trembling hand, he picked the mask up and put it back on the right side of his face.

Once he was reassured that it wasn't going to come off, he pulled his legs into his chest and buried his face into his knees.

The same nightmare had been plaguing him for years. He had tried so many different ways to try and stop them, but alas, they always ended up coming back with a vengeance. He was tempted to stop sleeping altogether because of the numerous times he ended up waking up in this state.

With bleary, unfocused eyes, the human grasped onto his D.D.D. and checked the time. He winced when the bright light of his phone screen penetrated his tired eyes. He was alarmed to find that it was late in the afternoon.

His eyes widened and he scrambled off of the bed. He was surprised that Lucifer hadn't come storming into his room, demanding him to wake up. Maybe because it was a weekend?. . . He hoped so.

He tried to forget about his vivid dream and headed to the bathroom. He stopped once entering, eyeing the mirror that stood before him.

Ever since that day, he hardly ever looked at himself in the mirror anymore, fearing what he would see. It had been so many years yet he still couldn't get over it. He hadn't shown anyone what lay beneath this mask and he never would. He didn't want to because he worried that the moment they saw his true face, they'd turn away from him and leave. . .

(M|n) had tried plenty of times to try and focus on himself in the mirror. Like today, it always ended up with him turning his back on his reflection and hurrying away.

He couldn't face what he looked like. . . In his hurry to get a shower started, he completely forgot to lock his bathroom door.

He squeezed his eyes shut for a moment, a debate beginning to start up in his head. He had just put his mask back on, but would it be wise to wear it during his shower? His previous mask had been ruined because he constantly wore it during his showers. . .

He didn't want this one to get ruined as well. So, reluctantly, he placed the mask on the side of the bath and climbed in. He started his shower, hoping to get it over and done with as quickly as possible. As he worked on lathering his body with soap, he didn't fail to hear the familiar voice calling him from outside the bathroom.

His hands halted on his body as he tried to make out what Mammon was trying to say. "(M|n), are ya in here?! I wanna ask ya something." (M|n) wondered what Mammon could possibly want from him. He was about to reply when he heard the creak of his bathroom door.

"Are ya brushing your teeth. . . In here. . ." (M|n) realised a moment too late that he had forgotten to lock his door. A blush slowly crawled up his cheeks as he let out a loud shriek.
