Diavolo and his father don't converse with one another, Diavolo is known as none other than the future prince of Devildom, and nothing else. No one saw him as his own self, as a being. Just the simple title that hung over his head, nearly suffocating him, crushing him, by the heavy weight. It was too much to bare, he sat at a bench at a certain park, for once not accompanied by his usual butler. He sat staring straight ahead, at the city lights of Devildom, and their you were, you sat beside him.
Staring ahead at the city.
Diavolo questioned whether or not he should leave since especially since he couldn't recognize who you were, and you probably might soon recognize him. Yet even if you did, you didn't seem to have any reaction, so he simply sat their in silence. "What brought you here?" You questioned, still staring ahead. Diavolo questioned whether or not he should answer, worried you'd be able to recognize him, had he spoke, yet wasn't able to stop himself. "To be alone", he stated, his eyes widened at the fact, he had just said that aloud, you recognized his voice yet couldn't quite place your figure on it, you dismissed the thought thinking it was your mind being confused.
"What about you?" He questioned, the wind blew rather harshly at that moment blowing through his maroon locks, you ran your hands over your arms feeling slightly cold, by the sudden gust of wind. "The same" you stated, he nodded his head understanding, yet slightly curious to why you wanted to be alone. The two of you soon had to part ways yet it wouldn't be the last.
The next week he had gone at the same time, the same day, towards the bench, you were already their, staring ahead at the city, he sat down at the other side of the bench. This time deciding to ask you the very same question as before.
You let out a heavy sigh "to think", he nodded his head understanding the feeling and why. Up here on this bench it was so tranquil, so peaceful, so very calm, where you could actually hear your own thoughts, the most quiet place in all of Devildom. "You?" You questioned, the two of you found it odd, I mean neither of you knew who the other was, and yet you seemed to have met twice, although you weren't spilling each others deepest darkest secret or anything of such. It still was odd, to each other you were random strangers.
"To get away"
You glanced over at the Prince confused to what exactly he meant by that phrase. "How so?" You questioned quite curiously, eyes focused on his silhouette, he stifled taking a moment to think, in the right way to explain it, without giving away who he was. "To get away from my life in a way, maybe even just pause it really", he stated not really understanding himself what he meant by that either. Yet you nodded your head, as you said that you understood that feeling. "To be someone else right?" You questioned, Diavolo's eyes widened. You had just done what no one else seemed to understand, you explained his thoughts his feelings all into one sentence.
"Try making your life something you want to live everyday."
You stated trying to give him some advice, Diavolo smiled to himself, that wouldn't necessarily be possible in his case. Yet he understood what you meant, your words ran through his mind 'try making your life something you want to live everyday'. "Sorry I shouldn't have said that, it isn't really any of my business" you stated, feeling slightly embarrassed from what you said. He shook his head "it's quite alright, thank you actually" he said a smile adjourning his face. As he stared ahead. The next day he sat in a chair, during a meeting with the other student council members his thoughts began to wander 'try making your life something you want to live everyday'. He thought to himself, what did he want to do with his life, what was the life he wanted to live everyday? He himself didn't know the answer to such.
He racked his head, what did he envision for himself? He had never thought of his future specifically, but the future of Devildom. Currently all he could see for himself, is that he would one day be no longer the prince for Devildom, but the very king. Yet his thoughts began to wander to you, the mysterious being. He hadn't had a clue who you were, you sounded familiar though, so perhaps he had met you before, yet he wasn't quite sure who exactly it was. Yet their you were, you stumbled into the meeting. You quietly took your seat, as Lucifer questioned why you were late, you gave a nervous smile.
"Sorry Lucifer it won't happen again"
You stated, Lucifer shook his head, as he decided to let you off this time. Diavolo's light golden eyes widened, it was you, he knew, you're voice. You noticed Diavolo's reaction, you worried that he was irked by your late appearance, yet you decided to hope for the best. Throughout the meeting all Diavolo could do was stare at you. He wasn't displeased by this newly found information, yet they way he thought of you had drastically changed, by the words you had said to him, and he to you.
That week the same time the same place, each time, you slowly began to open up more to one another, yet you still had no idea, it was Diavolo himself, you spoke to. Until one day, it was different what Diavolo spoke of, he brought up the thing you said before. As well as adding a little more, "I'm not sure what I want to live" he stated, being quite genuine in his response. "What do you prioritize in life?" You questioned him, he took a moment to think about it, he cared about Devildom, more specifically the people. "The beings around me" he stated, you nodded your head being able to understand yet not in the way of Diavolo. "You say the beings around you, but don't you want someone to be by your side?", you questioned, Diavolo's eyes widened, he snapped his eyes towards your silhouette.
You were right, he never envisioned himself, with someone beside him staring over Devildom. He always thought he would be alone, he cared of the beings in Devildom, yet that didn't mean he had to do it alone. That night your words kept him up, 'you say the beings around you, but don't you want someone to be by your side'. As soon as he closed his eyes he saw you beside him. No one else, he and you.
That very day, he vowed you would stand beside him, no matter the cost. His little crush slowly grew into obsession. Dark, bitter, obsession, or well in his eyes.
Love
