Marylynn's pov:
I rub my right shoulder blade slightly over my uniform. It's a little numb and I hate it...I remember the sight of the tattoo I saw this morning. Quite a shock seeing it at first, but Yukii didn't see it when I showed her.. perhaps is it only visible for me..?
Mammon:Mmm, this is amazing!
I look over at mammon, what is he eating?
Mammon:Aaah....nothin' Beats a fried scorpion sandwich with vinegar and tartar sauce for a late morning snack! In a bento box with all the fixing,of course!
I see Yukii gag in the corner and Aoi rubs her temple.
That sounds disgusting.
Beelzebub on the other hand...is staring at mammon at that sandwich, intensely.wait where did he come from?
Beelzebub:...
mammon: D'AH! Beel! St-stop it! This is MINE! Don't look at my food like that. It's like you're devouring it with your eyes!
Beelzebub shakes his head
Beelzebub: I don't want it.
He as a disgusted look.
Me: uh?!
Mammon: huh? Wait what's that now? Did you just say you don't want it? You're actually tellin' me you don't want this crazy good fried scorpion sandwich with vinegar and tartar sauce?! Are ya outta your mind?! Are you sick to your Stomach?! Is this the day when hell really does freeze over?! Or wait...is this a dream?!
Beel: nope. None of the above.
Mammon: all right, then what's goin' on here?!
Beelzebub starts smilling a little.
Beel: I just don't like your cooking, that's all.
Oh-
Aoi's pov:
A smile grows on Marylynn's face and her familiar laughter erupts in the air.
Mammon: wow, way to say somethin' super rude like it's no big deal, beel. That really hurts ya know! And stop laughing Bl-Mary! Wait, actually Thought, I DIDN'T make this! I got it from a witch who gave it to me as an offering.
Beelzebub: all right then,I'll take it.
Mammon: Uh, what?No you won't. What makes you think you can have this? I don't remember offerin' it to you. Although, if you want It that bad, I guess I could sell it to you as a special favor. If you ain't got cash on you, I'll take precious gems as payment instead. I'll probably settle for sapphires,rubies, Moldavite—
While mammon was busy talking about his payment modes, Beelzebub casually took the sandwich and started munching away on it.
Mammon: HEY....WHOA! I didn't say you could eat that!....D'ah,you wolfed the whole thing down in three seconds flat! I want my morning snack back, beel!...Actually, no...Too late. Give me my money. You owe me now!
Beelzebub: sorry, it's all gone. And I don't have any money, or gemstones.
A laugher bubbles up Marylynn's throat again.
Mammon: GRRRRRRR. Hey! Marylynn don't sit there just laughing!!
She stops her laughing the best she can to speak up small words.
Marylynn: are you a freaking dog? GRRRR pfff-HAHAHA
there she goes again.. she's doubling over in laughing.
Me: I couldn't care less.
Yukii:..you shouldn't have did that beel...
mammon slams his fist on the table.
Mammon: You're damn straight he shouldn't have! Hey, are you listening beel!? Did ya hear that?!
Beelzebub: You know. It really could've used some pickles. The sandwich felt like it was missing something without them.
Mammon: No one asked whether you liked it, you idiot!
A voice comes and break the silence.
Simeon:Hey there, you five.
I've never seen Marylynn straighten up that fast. He lets out a small chuckle and o swear Marylynn could have just started melting on the ground.
Simeon: it's so nice to see how well you all get along.
Mammon: wha? Are ya blind, Simeon?! Can't you see that we're ready to kill each other here?!
Mary: h-hi Simeon..
Simeon: Hi Marylynn. I hope you are doing well.
She smiles and I can see she is trying her hardest not saying something stupid.
Luke: Don't you dare speak to Simeon that way,demon! Show some respect!
Mammon: Eh? Ah, Fido...it's you. Didn't even realize you were there.
Mary: me neither.
I kick her leg and she moans out a profanity under her breath.
Like: wh...don't call me Fido! My NAME is Luke. Can't you get that through your head?! Or are you as stupid as you are rude?!
Mammon:mhmm, do you ever stop yippin' and yappin'?
He puts his elbow on his head.
Luke: hey, quit it! Don't rest your elbow on my head!
I pull mammon's arm off and glare at him.
Luke:Now you listen to me.... I may not look important to you, but I'll have you know that I report directly to Michael—
Mammon: riiiight, it's always "Michael this, Michael that" with you.
Luke: listen to me when I'm talking to you, demon!
Simeon: Mammon, I know how cute Luke is when he's frustrated, but I think you've harassed him enough. I'd appreciate it if you'd stop.
Mary: how mean of you mammon~
Mammon: shut up. But Heh, it's so hard not to thought. He's just so funny...isn't that right beel?
Beelzebub: I bet he tastes good.
Luke: I am NOT funny! And I don't taste good, either!
Mammon: so, what is it you angels want? I know you must want somethin'. Otherwise you wouldn't walk up and strike up a conversation with us outta nowhere.
Simeon: ah yes right, I almost forgot. We're actually planning to go on a camping trip soon, you see. We thought it would be a good way to have fun and get to know each other better. And that's why I am here to invite you. We'd love it if you'd all join us.
Marylynn was gonna speak up but mammon goes over her.
Mammon: wha? Ugh, so it's another one of your lame ideas.you always do this...Listen, for starters, camping is a total drag. Isn't that right beel?
Beel: Hmm,camping...that would mean cooking out...Oooh, and roasting marshmallows....
beel: I'm in
Mary: m-me too!
Mammon: shut up Mary no one asked you. And Beel, ya see that's the problem. Ya gotta stop lettin' ya stomach make decisions for ya. So, what do you think about that camping thing Aoi? And Yukii..
Yukii shakes her head slightly, making her answer unclear.
Me: I guess I'll go if The girls go.
Mammon: should you have your own answer?
Simeon: well, just keep in mind we are going camping and you're invited.
A Phone starts ringing and it seems to come from Simeon.
Simeon: uh-oh, I have a phone call. If you'll excuse me, I should really take this. You give take care. Also, Marylynn, I heard about the pact with Leviathan. Good job.
He leaves slightly and Marylynn's head almost knocks on the table in shock. A nervous laugh escapes her lips.
Mary: w-well yeah easy peasy!
Yukii's POV:
Luke stares at me in silence..
it's like that time..
~flashback~
Luke: never trust a demon.
~end~
Then maybe, the boy from the attic..
Mammon: hey, Fido.shouldn't you be head in' off with your friend there?
Luke:...Hey. Don't tell me what to do. As it happens, I AM leaving yes, but not because you told me to. Also, MY NAME'S NOT FIDO, OKAY?!
Me: I'm sorry about that Luke..
Luke: bye Yukii.
He walks away, frustrated.
~time skip~
I'm sitting on my bed, changed after school...
~flashback~
???: let's see, you should probably start with...Beelzebub. Yes, he's the best choice. You need to get close to him. I have faith in you Yukii, I know you'll get me out of here.
~end~
I can't stop thinking about that boy....
...
I'm going to go see Marylynn. She's probably gonna find something to joke around of to change my mind.
Aoi's pov:
My phone ring and I look at the sender of the text messages.
Mammon: I'm feeling a little hungry.
Mammon:come meet me in the kitchen now.
Mammon:just to be clear, it's not like I'm afraid lucifer might catch me if I go alone. That's not what this is about.
Me: you are such a scaredy cat, mammon!
Mammon: Seriously, that's not what this is about!! For real!! It isn't!! Now hurry!
Me: Fine you annoying demon.
I close my phone and get out of my room. Heading for the kitchen.
to protect the demon.
Supposed to Protect.
Me....
What did I do to deserve this?
