Peach and the red haired demon

Complicated feelings

"Sure, go make food and I'm just gonna take a walk. I might be back really late... Don't wait for me." As he said that he left the shine and went for a walk in the world over yander where the demons usually hang.

She walked out of the room and went to the kitchen. She looked into the fridge for some apples.

Akura was walking through a dark forest and thinking to himself about Momo's confession of love to him. -How could that woman say that she loves me? How can that be? I'm a cruel demon king and she is a goddess. She barely knows me. She has no idea what awful things I have done to women and yet she claims she loves me. It's just stupid. But what about me? How do I feel about her?.. Do I like her?.. I don't know... Well, I guess she is interesting and at first I wanted to have some fun with her like with all the other girls, but now I'm not sure anymore... I know that I really want her. I want to make her mine. And not in the usual way I want women. I truly want her to be my woman... But why? Does that actually means I have feeling for her? Can that even be? Me having feelings for a woman?.. No way... Or is it?... No...

After some thinking and walking Akura finally decided to go back to the shrine. He still wasn't sure about his feelings for that woman. He couldn't just accept the fact that he might be in love since it still seemed too ridiculous to him even though it was clear that he cared about her that much of not wanting to loose her or actually let any harm come to her.

Momo had gotten some apples and started to make an apple pie. When Akura got home the apple pie was cooling next to an open window while Momo was choosing some stuff to put on top of it while humming a song.

It was really late already so Akura sneaked into the shrine really quietly not wanting to wake anyone up.

As Akura walked into the shrine he smelled a pie and heard someone humming. -Hm, is that Momo humming?- He thought to himself but didn't bother to go to her. He just walked to his room. -I wonder what my brother is doing. I haven't seen him in a while-

It had been a long time to sense human presence this closely. No matter how reckless Akura-Ou was when it come to these games, most of the time, Tomoe remained content. Unneeded massacres were something the fox did not agree with, but alas, his judgment did not matter. It was none of his concern, afterall. Even so, Tomoe was always flirtatious, resulting him into having lots of female admirers. He was not specifically aware of his good looks, but they did pay off. The male sighed, trying to make any useless thoughts vanish by relaxing on a high tree near the shrine. Humans were weak; they break easily. 

But that only made it more fun.

Momo looked out the window. "Tomoe come back inside I made some pie". She kinda yelled so he could hear her.

Akura layed in his bed while still thinking to himself. -Maybe I should go find Tomoe and see what he has to say about all of this... No, that's a bad idea. I can't possibly say that I'm thinking that I could be in love. Besides, no matter how I look at this it's just stupid for me to fall in love with anyone...-

After waiting a bit and not getting a response from Tomoe Momo thought that he might have went inside to his room without her noticing it. Therefore, she went to check on that, but then she saw the light on in Akura's room so, she decided to knock on the door". Akura? Is that you?" The goddess asked in a soft voice.

-Damn, she is here right now. I'm not in the mood to talk to her, I'll just pretend to be asleep- Akura cursed in his head. The room was quiet, no response come from it.

She didn't say anything else and just went to Tomoe's room, but when she didn't find him there, she just went back to her room.

The fox had remained on the tree, dozing off. He didn't enjoy staying with the goddess any longer then he already had. Most importantly he didn't enjoy seeing that his brother was becoming soft. Tomoe growled slightly at the thought. The male jumped off of the tree, walking back to the shrine.

After tossing in bed for a while, Akura seemed to have had enough of that. -Fine, I'm going outside again. Maybe I can find Tomoe and go do some killing. That would help me get rid of these annoying thoughts- he got out of bed and walked outside. "Brother? Are you here?" The horned yokai shouted.

"You talk too much. It's noisy." Tomoe appeared out of the corner, covering Akura's mouth. He was clearly in a foul mood. "I do not understand your deal with the humans, but I am highly against further connections." Tomoe leaned closer to him, his sharp eyes glowing with suspension. "You surely are aware of how idiotic that idea may sound, correct?"

"Yes, I understand that, brother... That's why I was thinking that maybe we should go back to our place. It is getting quite annoying to be here. But right now I just really feel like going on a killing spree. I had enough of this woman.. I wanted to ruin her, but now I guess I changed my mind. She is not worth my time at all. Will you join me Tomoe?"

Tomoe smirked slightly. "Good. You are back to normal again." The male placed both of his hands within his kimono, crossing them. "However, that does not mean I'll join. I still don't approve of your choice of playing."

"Fine, then I'll go alone, though I was hoping you would join for the good old times sake. You know how much I enjoy going killings together with you. We are a perfect team after all. But if that's what you want then fine..." He turned from Tomoe and started walking away.
