Demon Got My Tongue (blue exorcist X reader)

•Chapter 5•

"Okay a shadow demon?" Yukio asks as he peers at your arms and legs. "Well you don't have any kind of blight. Rin did a good job protecting you."

"Awe thanks Yukio!" Rin cheers as Izumo looks over from her corner.

"Well, she wouldn't have been in that situation if Rin didn't get her in trouble." She states and Yukio nods as he looks over at Rin and sighs. "I'll deal with that later." He mutters and you jump off the counter and sigh.

"I don't understand." You mutter and look at yourself. "Give what back?"

"I don't know what he could want." Konekomaru mutters as he looks to Ryuji who looks over to you. "Did you take something from a tomb or is their something in your house that may have been from one?"

"My family isn't into old things." You state and Shiemi peers at a book. "Could it be a curse?" She asks and you tilt your head shrugging. "Whatever it is, it must be very important to him..."

"Well he is trying to kill her." Ryuji states and Yukio shakes his head. "I'm only being honest."

"I understand that." Yukio mutters and sighs as he steps out into the hallway and you all heads towards the classroom. "What would he want from Y/N though?"

They all turn to you and you look down at your feet as your heart does a leap. You feel a sick feeling stirring in your stomach. In the back of your head you hear a soft taunting voice and the burn on your hand begins to burn intensely. Dead, dead, dead, dead.

"Y/N?" You look up to see Renzo peering at you with worried eyes. You nod softly as you clench your hand tightly and smile.

"I'm fine." You state and he nods as the lesson begins. Everyone believed that you were okay, all except one that is.

That night, you sit outside quietly in the garden, after having to sneak out of your room. The night wind blows and you stare down at your hand. The scar from being burned from an oven still etched into your skin. You pull you look up at the sky and let out a gentle sigh.

"Oh yes, you get attacked and then you go off on your own." You turn to see Ryuji walking towards you. "That's smart."

"I just needed to be alone." You mutter and he rolls his eyes as he leans against a tree. "Why'd you come out here?"

"Because I need to get away from Shima." He grumbles and looks at you. "He won't shut up about a certain someone."

"Not my fault." You grumble and he snorts as you lean back and look up at the sky. "It's a nice night though. Just look at the stars."

"I don't look at stars." He states and folds his arms over his chest. "I only do it if I need to navigate."

"Mhm." You hum and look up as you tilt your head. "What do you think it is? I mean about the Stars that make them so pretty."

"They are literally just balls of gas." He stares and you puff up your cheeks. "Seriously, why don't you go inside, a girl like you shouldn't just sit around outside."

"Whatever." You mutter and breath in the fresh air. "I don't feel safe inside that school."

"Well hell, you have seven body guards." He grumbles and you look over at him. "You should feel plenty safe."

"Okay." You mutter and stand up quietly. You hear a click and turn around, Ryuji is already in front of you. His eyes gaze steadily at a bush and you look around him. "What is it?"

"How in the hell am I supposed to know?" He asks and you pout as a small cat jumps out and meows. "KITTY!" You shout and shove him away kneeling down. "Hello little guy."

"That could be the devil in disguise, or a demon cat!" He shouts and you shrug as you let under its chin and it purrs happily.

"His fur is so odd, under the sunlight it looks blue!" You cheer ignoring Ryuji. "I will name you Stitch. You are now my best friend."

"What is wrong with you?" He hisses and you pick up the kitten and wave it's paws around.

"Oh, nothin really, I just have to be protected by a bunch of exorcists because Satan himself is after me for unknown reason. I'm completely normal." You say and the kitten meows as Ryuji stares at you with dull eyes.

"Uh huh, what are you going to do with that?" He asks and pokes its stomach and it meows happily pawing at his hand.

"I'm going to care for him in secrecy." You say and hug Stitch to your chest. "I like him."

"Well you did name it in less that 30 seconds."

"Well excuse me." You mumble and begin walking towards the dorm as he follows behind you. "Ryuji, I think you have a sever case of grumpy man syndrome."

"That isn't real."

"You make it real."

"You are a sarcastic little witch aren't you?"

"I've always been that way." You say and look up. "Why do people always say that to me?"

"You just draw us to ask. That's how horrible you are."

"You're no Prince Charming either Ryuji." You grumble and he holds the door open. "However, you do have manners."

"You're a pain in my ass." He grumbles shutting the door and he looks over at you as you tickle the kitten. "You always have been."

"We were kids jackass." You day and look over at him. "You've changed a lot."

"You haven't changed at all." He states and pats your head. "Still short as ever."

"Not my fault your a giant..."

"What was that Y/N?" He pushes down and you let out a shout as you pat away at him. "I actually don't think you've grown."

"I've grown three inches since I last saw you!" You bark and he shakes his head as you look at him. "I honestly didn't think you would remember me..."

"How in the world could I forget you?" He asks as he walks away as you stand at your door. "You owe me money after all."

"Asshole...." You hiss as you watch him walk away and Stitch paws at your nose. "He's awful huh Stitch?" You mumble and walk into your room.
