It was the weekend and Aria was excited to go to Mepphy Land with Rin. She had gone to the amusement park a few weeks ago but with the whole gang. Today it would be just be Rin and her. She preferred it this way. The less people the better. This means her anxiety and nervousness would be low to none.
Early Saturday morning, she showered and fixed her hair. She wore very casual attire that consisted of black shorts, a dark green t-shirt and plain black sneakers. Aria had left a fresh supply of candy on her desk for Amaimon, just in case he showed up today.
They had been spending quite a bit of time together, Amaimon and her. It seemed the greedy prince of Gehenna had taking quite a liking to the girl. He would visit her every other day. He said Mephisto wanted to make sure she was happy here. Every time she saw him, she greeted him with a warm smile and new candy. She never turned him away. A few times, he had startled her because he would leap into her room through the window and catch her off guard. Aria had become accustomed to his way of entering and it didn't surprise her anymore. Or rather, she didn't freak out.
Unknown to her, Mephisto had asked Amaimon to keep a very close eye on Aria. He wanted to see if anything strange happened around her, or if she attracted any demons. While she lived in the American orphanage, before Mephisto adopted her, Aria would cry to the nuns that she heard strange voices as a child. She would see strange figures and shapes lurking in shadows, and felt as though something was always watching her. As she grew older, Aria was able to see the actual demons that tried haunting her, instead of just their shadows and voices. She was able to ignore them now or respond back to them. The demons were always just small little things. Usually the familiars of other, more powerful demons.
One of Mephisto's familiars had informed him he found a rather strange girl at an american orphanage. He had sensed a powerful being residing in her, and that he was sure the girl was unaware of. That is how Mephisto first heard of Aria. The shy, quiet, mostly timid girl, who didn't know was part angel. When Mephisto confirmed his suspicions, he knew he needed her. If he could mold her and manipulate her, she would be one of his greatest assets.
Mephisto wanted to use Amaimon to draw out her powers. He needed to being to shape her into what he wanted. She was at the prime age and state of mind for training however, her angelic being seemed to be locked away. He needed to bring it out somehow.
Mephisto had cautioned his brother against the girl. To keep an ever watchful eye and maintain his guard up at all times. Who knows when her angel powers might show themselves and harm Amaimon or worse. The greedy demon had mentioned to his brother that she was weak. She was a pushover. Aria let everyone walk all over her. How could someone like that hurt him in anyway? Regardless though, he promised his Anuie he'd be careful.
Aria was actually very happy to have Amaimon around. In fact, one could say she would become giddy at the thought of him visiting. As she placed an Orchid flower in her hair, she thought of him. Of how he would sometimes sneak into her bedroom when she was asleep and eat her candy. Of how he recently started to sneak into her bed and sleep next to her. Aria started to blush furiously at that thought. Amaimon had taken it upon himself to sleep in her bed with her. He would usually be shirtless, only wearing his pants and socks as he snuggled her. Eventually though, he would turn over, lollipop falling out of his mouth and drifting off to sleep. She was unsure of how many hours he actually slept because when she woke up, he'd be gone. Usually Behemoth would stay and keep her company until Amaimon's return.
Brushing off the thought, she looked herself over once more in the mirror. She wore no make-up. She felt it more of a hindrance than anything else. However, she would dabble with it every now and then. Gently stroking Behemoth's head, Aria gave him a quick peck on his forehead then headed out. "Please behave yourself Behemoth! I'll be back later tonight!"
