Bittersweet | Amaimon x Reader

1. Friends?

It was a cold winter day when they first met, feeling drawn to the little village hidden deep within the snowy forest. Aimlessly roaming around and finding his way through the trees, dropping to the ground once he was bored of jumping, his unusual shoes leaving large footprints in the snow behind him as he followed the much smaller trail. Hands stuffed in his pockets, back hunched over slightly, the nonchalant expression spread across his flawless face while scanning his surroundings. His entrancing teal eyes landed upon three children approaching and happily sprinting past, the little boy bumped into the mans leg causing him to stop in his tracks. Frightened blue eyes taking in the appearance of the tall figure before him, his strange clothing, pointy ears, deadpan face, and teal eyes glaring down at him with aggravation. Annoyed that the brat had touched him and was backing away in fear, running as fast as his little legs could take him hoping to escape the demon. A heavy sigh passed his lips continuing on until drawing nearer to the houses in the distance, his curiosity spiking seeing how abandoned the place looked. Windows bordered, complete vacancy. Dragging the long ripped coat behind as he reached what he could make out to be a park, a little body emerging as he drew closer to the swing. Stopping once undetected looming over her form from behind, noticing her shivering pale body. Her skin almost the color of the snow below his feet, long (H/c) hair falling from her fragile shoulders as she wiped the tears from her face. "Why are you crying?" He couldn't help but question, his stubby green eyebrow raising and placing himself on the swing beside her. (E/c) hues looking at him and then back at the ground, hiccuping from the endless crying. 

"I-I want t-to play but i have n-no friends" Stuttering out past sobs and quivering lips, biting down to the point a thin stream of blood trickled down her chin. His eyes taking in the sight of her quivering body and the scent of her blood, adverting his gaze to her bleeding lip. "Mr, will you be my friend?" Hopeful eyes staring up at him, smiling in glee upon seeing him nod and reach a hand out to her face. Her hues enlarging taking heed of the pointed black claws inching closer to her face, his thumb wiping the blood away and retracting his arm bringing it up to his lips, tongue licking the blood from his hand. "You're weird Mr. What's your name?" Chuckling at his bizarre actions pulling herself from the swing she was on and standing in front of him, placing herself in his lap. "Amaimon" His smooth voice warming her neck, snuggling deeper into his body warmth, her back pressed to his chest. "Maymon! That's a cool name, I'm (Y/N)" Huffing in irritation at her stupidity and over energetic attitude, beginning to swing back and forth gaining height with every push. Her cute giggles warming his heart, "How old are you?" The demon was the one to question this time, noticing that she was incredibly young to be left out unsupervised. "6, how old are you Maymon" "Too old" Shuffling around tilting her head back to look at his face, gripping tighter on the chains as they swung higher. "You're funny looking, i like it" Teal eyes barely widening at her remark, he felt somewhat satisfied knowing that she did not run away in fear, scared of his appearance and bluntness. Stuffing his hand into the coat pocket pulling out two lollipops, he never shared or offered to anyone else and here he was holding it to her mouth. The wrapper already peeled off as she leaned forward opening her mouth and taking the sweet from in between his sharp nails, throwing one into his own and swirling it around enjoying the taste. "Hey Maymon, lets play it!" Nodding in agreement, jumping from the high swing with her small body securely in his arms, skillfully landing and gently dropping her into the snow. Slapping her small hand on his leg and running away laughing, his gaze following after her and soon leaving ground, jumping from tree to tree to match her pace. Lunging himself forward landing and catching her off guard, staring up at the green haired male in awe. "Can you teach me to do that?!" "No" Pouting at his answer while huffing from loss of air, reaching up to grab his much larger hand with her small one. "I have to go now" She began sulking, tightening her grip on his hand not wanting the fun to end. "We can play again tomorrow, so do not cry" Ripping his fingers from hers, turning his back to her and walking away with boredom, looking for something to keep him occupied. Sprinting towards the run down looking house across the street with tears in her eyes, the demon glancing back in the direction of her house and walking the opposite direction.

Timeskip to morning

The sun had began to rise, its warm rays blocked out by the many thick trees. Deep snow littering the ground, any trace of footprints from the previous day erased. The small (H/c) haired girl ran out gleefully searching the surroundings for the familiar man to find nothing, a sense of abandonment filling her failing to find him. Hope sparked in the (E/c) orbs that were her eyes upon seeing a figure approach from the distance, her legs carrying her towards the man with closed eyes and throwing herself around his leg. Withdrawing when realizing that this was indeed not the man she met yesterday, stepping back a few steps and staring up at him. His green eyes returning the gesture and staring back, a large grin spreading across his face underneath the pink and white polka dotted scarf wrapped around his neck. The white formal suit he wore emitting a light of its own blending in with the snow, his pointy ears sticking out past his strangely purple hair. "Hello there!" Leaning down and reaching a gloved hand out to shake hers in return, "I am Johann Faust! What might your name be little one?" Backing away in fear seeing his scary grin and narrowing eyes, the shy voice slipping past her lips in a scream. "Pedo!" Immediately pulling back standing to his full demonic height, hands held up beside him in surrender and eyes wide in shock. "Oh my, i am no such thing. How do you even know what that is!?" "Big brother, what are you doing here" The man she was looking for stepping out from the shadows behind the (H/c) and standing before her protectively, casually starting a conversation with the purple haired man. There words were inaudible to the little girl hiding behind the demon, sneaking out from behind him and pulling on the strange mans trouser leg. Bending down to her height and lifting her up in his arms, sitting her small body on his hip. "You've taken quite a liking to the young one Amaimon, be careful not to raise suspicion. Wouldn't want people getting the wrong idea now, would we!" Smiling widely at his brother while bouncing the girl on his hip, her voice coming out weird from the movement. "Hey Mr pedo man, are you Maymon's big brother?" "I am not Mr pedo man thank you very much, you may call me Mephisto. And yes, he is my dear little broth-" Cut short of his sentence letting out a yelp of pain when he felt her pulling at his horn, yanking on the unique curl atop his head. "This is funny, Mammon you've got one too!" Reaching out to touch his but arms too small to extend any further from the mans grasp on her, "She's quite the lively one, and adorable at that" his green eyes staring into hers flashing a gentle smile, the girl scrunching up her face.

"It seems your name is constantly changing Amaimon, Maymon, Mammon! Cannot wait for the next name to slip her lips!" "Mephsto, you're my friend too!" Wiggling out of his grip and climbing up Amaimon's leg, his eyes blankly staring down at her struggling figure. Sighing and picking her up, setting her the same way his brother did, on his hip. The girl smiling in victory, snuggling into the warmth of his shirt and drifting to sleep listening to the soft beats of his heart and smooth voice. "We better get her home before her parents begin to worry somewhat" Her vulnerable body being passed back over the Mephisto and carried to her house, following Amaimon to the run down shack shrouded by snow.
