Currently Y/n had slept in as Sukuna did his rounds, checking up on the souls.

But what the two didn't expect was for there to be a knock on their door.

Since Sukuna was gone and Y/n got tired of the repeated knocking, she had finally woken up, making her way to the front door as she wrapped the silk robe around herself.

"Yes?" Y/n asked, seeing that it was Mercury who currently held a gift basket.

"Hey I brought this for you and Sukuna, but I guess he's not here"

"yeah he's taking care of some stuff, but what's the basket for?" Y/n asked.

"well I wanted to apologize for the party, I don't know if you know my mother but she's very nosey and wanted me to talk to you back at the party, you don't need to forgive me though" Mercury said, a nervous smile on his face as Y/n just stared him down, still trying to wake up from her nap.

"*sigh* it's fine, but I'm going to be honest, if this is some plan from your sister then you can go" Y/n said "oh no definitely not, I love annoying my sister but I'd never let her drag me into one of her schemes"

"Well then thank you, was this all you needed?" Y/n asked, not realizing Mercury was secretly looking over her frame.

"No that was it, tell Sukuna I said hey" Mercury said with a smile before walking away as Y/n closed the door.

"Who was that?" Sukuna asked, practically making me jump out of my skin.

"Oh it was Mercury, he dropped this basket off as an apology for the party" I said, looking through the basket to see an assortment of baked goods.

"Hm, that was it?" "Yeah, he said hey by the way" I said, already eating one of the chocolate croissants.

"Oh okay" Sukuna said, reaching into the basket to grab a croissant, the biggest one that I wanted to be specific.

"I wanted that one" "should of ate it then" Sukuna said, obviously having a grand time trying to annoy me.

After a bit I had decided to get on my phone again as me and Sukuna were sitting on his couch.

"Damn, I really did start some dismay" I said, seeing that a lot of news sites like "the godly hour" and others were currently talking about how I was, in their own words "a charity case" cause if the whole James thing.

Other sites were talking about me apparently being a "gold digger" and others just talked about how I was apparently a fashion icon cause of the few times I actually decided to leave the house.

"I hate the media, do you want me to say something?" Sukuna asked and I knew that would of been a bad idea.

"No it's fine, plus humans gossip like this all the time in the paper, it's nothing new" I said, not really minding all of this attention, but at the same time, I didn't know how deep that "attention" went.

"Mercury you know you're my second born, correct?" Zira, the moon goddess asked, a glass of red wine in her hand.

"Yes mother" Mercury answered, his long white hair tied up in a bun, a few loose strands framing his face.

"And you know both you and your sister are my prized possessions?" "Yes.."

"Well since you know that, can you explain why your older sister Esmeray caught you leaving Sukuna's home? Specifically after giving his bride a gift basket?" Zira asked, Esmeray giving her brother a devilish look, knowing he was in deep trouble.

"Mother I told you I will not be apart of these weird schemes you and Esmerat have, and Y/n's actually kind" "she's kind?" Esmeray asked in an exaggerated tone.

"Well if she's so kind how about you marry her instead and embarrass this family, you're the messenger god for heavens sake, you're the most influential god around and you wanna waste your time on some human sacrifice?"

Zira's words had hurt Esmeray, she knew deep down she was a lesser goddess then her mother, and the love she showed her younger brother just proved it even more.

"I'm tired of this, I'm not some child who you can use as a pawn" Mercury said as he walked out, not wanting to be involved of the hurt his mother and sister wanted to cause against his new found friend.
