A/N: Hi! My MC's birthday occurred this past week. So, as a result, I decided to write a short one-shot to celebrate that AND the fact that I hit 200 followers on Wattpad! I hope you enjoy meeting MC Kat and getting briefly introduced to her relationship with Beel and Diavolo and learning a tidbit about her backstory. I plan on writing a whole book about Kat, but that will be coming later on. Also, the pic above is my MC Kat, drawn by my friend @ clockworkjoker (Clocku/Kurroku) on Twitter. Thanks again Clocku!!!
"Happy Birthday??"
Beel X MC Kat X Diavolo
Kat woke up on a hot summer morning, the dark Devildom sky presenting a peaceful calm start to the day. However, this was no ordinary morning; it was a morning full of painful and unwanted reminders. As she got up and got ready, she noticed it was rather quiet.
'Please, don't let them be up to something.' Kat hoped, shuddering as she exited her room.
Turning the corner, Kat was immediately overwhelmed by all of her close friends and partners joyously celebrating.
"Happy Birthday, Kat!" they all cheered brightly and enthusiastically.
Kat froze. She didn't know how to respond. Almost as if acting on instinct, her body began to move backward.
"Kat? Baby?" Beel asked, his bright smile fading.
"Love?" Diavolo asked, echoing Beel's concern.
The rest of the gathering mirrored looks of confusion and concern as they all watched Kat's vacant expression travel farther back from them. Within an instant, Kat was sprinting out the front of the House of Lamentation. She ran around to the back of the home finding solace in the small flower garden. Quickly, she made her way to the tall shadow oak tree and began to climb, desperate to hide.
Once she made her way to a stable set of branches, she sat and remained still. Almost immediately, her body began to shake as muffled sobs escaped her lips. As a last means of protection, she curled into herself, careful to remain safely on her spot.
For what seemed like hours, Kat sat on the tree branch and sobbed into herself. Within her mind, flashes of her past played quickly through her mind. Kat began to fall away from herself. In an instant, she was young, vulnerable to the cruelty of those she should have been able to trust. Kat cried harder, softly whispering apologies and the word 'No' over and over. Her hands made their way towards her head, randomly hitting, desperate to make the painful memories leave her mind.
"Babycakes?" a soft yet strong voice gently whispered.
Kat stiffened; her fists clenched tightly into her hair, threatening the roots.
"My precious jewel, please let go of yourself," another voice spoke mildly.
Kat could not move. Her sobbing only continued, much to the worry of her two loves. Beel and Diavolo perched themselves near Kat, anxiously looking at one another.
"Kat, let's go inside. Can I hold you sweetheart?" she heard Beel ask.
Kat, still frozen in her thoughts, barely shook her head yes. Very carefully, Beel maneuvered himself to grab a hold of his love. He held Kat close to himself as he and Diavolo escorted her back to her bedroom. Lightly, he placed her on her bed as he and Diavolo sat on either side of her. Kat continued to cry, tears flowing freely as Diavolo gently stroked her hair and Beel caressed her back.
"Love, what's wrong? Can you please tell us?" Diavolo pleaded.
Kat took a deep, shaky breath before raspily speaking. "I hate my birthday. It just... brings up a lot. I try to avoid the day by acting as normal as possible."
"Kat, we had no idea. We're sorry," Beel spoke.
Kat just shook her head. "No one knew. It's not your fault."
"Can we ask what makes your birthday in particular so painful? It's okay if you don't want to tell us," Diavolo murmured.
Kat trembled in place. "I didn't have the best self-esteem growing up. I was always getting picked on, and... and it led me to be really hard on myself. If I ever messed up on something, I was always being reminded, by myself or by others, how useless and stupid I was. It's one of the reasons I get onto you and your brothers for calling Mammon an idiot," Kat said, weakly smiling at Beel. "My own parents ignored the pain I went through, sometimes they even added to it. As I got older, I became more depressed. It was hard to form good connections with others because it always felt like I was going to get hurt. So, I was alone, and I suffered by myself. Eventually, I began hurting myself in response. I started small, but it steadily got worse and worse. It took a long time for me to recover from all the past hurt. I don't really think I really have. More like I've just gotten better at ignoring it the majority of the time."
Diavolo and Beel listened intently to Kat as she recalled painful memories of being bullied, ignored, and told she wasn't good enough, or never would be. They were shocked at her past. How could someone so sweet as her, endure so much?
"Kat we are so sorry. We had no idea that you've been through this." Diavolo said.
Kat wiped her eyes, "It's okay. It was in my past. My birthday was a day I began to avoid because no one ever acknowledged it. I guess seeing you all being so cheerful, made me wonder what I did wrong growing up to not be worthy."
Beel and Diavolo pulled her into a tight embrace, each holding her hoping to communicate just how loved she is.
"Babycakes, we love you so much," Beel cooed.
"We'll always be here for you," Diavolo added.
Kat smiled. "Thank you both. I'm so lucky that you two are a part of my life. I love you both!"
The three remained there for a few more moments, embracing the love. That is, until Beel's stomach loudly roared.
Breaking from the hug, Kat laughed loudly. "I don't suppose there's any food left in the dining room?" she joked.
Her two loves laughed along with her as they all made their way back towards the dining room.
