Kirishima paced around the apartment, fiddling with the tiny velvet box. He opened it, looking at the ring inside. He took a deep breath and closed it, waiting for Bakugou to come out of the bathroom.

He heard the door opening, and hid the box behind his back.

"Hey, babe, we gotta talk." Kirishima said, making Bakugou walk over to him.

"Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Can I go first?" Bakugou asked, rubbing the back of his neck and looking at the floor.

"Yeah of course!" Kirishima smiled at his boyfriend, not knowing what to expect.

"I have to leave for a bit. I need to go back to hell..." Bakugou said, not making eye contact. "I don't know when I'll get back and I don't know if phones work down there. What were you gonna say?" Bakugou finally looked at his boyfriend.

Kirishima stood in front of Bakugou, tears in his eyes.

"Are you breaking up with me?" Kirishima asked, his voice cracking.

"No! I mean yes? I don't know, okay? I don't want to but you can't go with me and I don't know when I'll be back and I don't want you sitting around waiting for me and being miserable!" Bakugou waited for Kirishima's response.

"Hold on your hand and close your eyes." Kirishima said, and Bakugou complied. When Bakugou felt something in his hand, he opened his eyes. It was a box, a velvet box.

"Don't open it until you get to hell, and you'll have my answer." Kirishima said, and Bakugou nodded, walking out of the apartment.

Kirishima sat on the bed, more tears spilling from his eyes.

Bakugou walked into the apartment next door, making all of the demons stand.

"We gotta go, now. I don't wanna be there for long." Bakugou snapped, making all of them nod. "Jirou, open the portal." Jirou hummed and did what Bakugou had told her to. He gestured for all of them to go, then hopped in last, it closing behind him.

Bakugou and the demons walked together, all knowing what they needed to do. Bakugou, however, had much more weight on his shoulders than the others did.

They ran to where they needed to be, a small room not far away from the throne. A familiar purple headed boy and black headed girl were in there.

"What took you so long, Devil?" The purple headed boy, Shinso, asked.

"Nothin'." Bakugou said, taking his seat.

"I didn't expect you to be late to our meeting. It seems like you haven't been down here lately. Care to explain why?" Shinso asked yet another question.

"Don't pretend like you don't know." Bakugou growled, making Shinso laugh.

"Well, yes. I was there too for a little. But you've spent almost a month there." Shinso added.

"That was the deal I was workin' on." Bakugou lied.

"C'mon, we know you found your little soulmate, why not drag him back to hell with you?" One of the angels said, getting a mean glare from Shinso and Bakugou.

"He doesn't wanna. Not like you have one anyways." Bakugou retorted.

"Go easy on him. He's a newbie." Shinso chuckled, leaning forward. "So, you better get your stuff together and come back down. Soon. More and more people are acting out down here and nobody is here to stop them. Not you, and not your little demons." Shinso gestured to the four behind him.

"Give me a little time." Bakugou growled, earning a nod from Shinso. All of the angels were filing out when Shinso stopped and winked at Kaminari and Sero, and then taking his leave.

Bakugou sighed, and slouched in his chair.

"You okay, boss?" Sero asked, sitting in the chair next to him.

"Does it look like I'm okay? We haven't been here in what feels like forever, so I have to sort everything out down here before I can go back up!" Bakugou said, punching the table that separated him and Shinso earlier.

"We can go back and check up on him if you want!" Mina said excitedly.

"I need you, Jirou, and Kaminari to stay down here. I don't think there's gonna be dead bodies in hell though, so Sero is the only one who can go back. I don't think he'll want to separate from Kaminari though." Bakugou said, glaring at the two, making Sero give him a nervous smile.

"Why me? You should know by now how to control yourself." Mina pouted, getting an evil glare from Bakugou.

"I just don't wanna mess this up. If I mess up, I wont be able to see him for longer." Bakugou explained, getting a nod from Mina.

Just like that, they all went to work. Except Sero. He just flirted with Kaminari while he tortured people.

Kirishima sat on the edge of his bed, scrolling through pictures on his phone.

"I wonder if he's opened the box by now..." Kirishima thought out loud. "Ah he probably forgot about it. And me. He was probably lying about the soulmate thing... and about loving me. He probably just said that to escape me. I mean, it is the end of June now..." Kirishima ranted to himself. He sighed and shut off his phone, laying down on the bed.

"I'm so stupid. He's the devil. It would never work out." Kirishima said, and then thought for a moment.

"Wait! I'm a demon now! Shouldn't I be down there too, damnit?! How do I get down there?!" Kirishima sat up quickly.

"Well, my only thoughts are Jirou, but she went back with them too!" Kirishima huffed and laid down again.

"I really miss him..." Kirishima rolled on his side, tears spilling out of his eyes. He quickly took off his clothes, being left in his boxers, and closed his eyes.

"I guess I'll go to sleep, and see what happens tomorrow." Kirishima said, then drifted off to sleep.
