~How unfortunate~ | Mephisto Pheles x Reader

Fünf. Don't Pry

There was a long awkward silence between us but it didn't seem to bother him, he only tried clearing the tension by whistling as we casually walked to a large mountain of buildings. "Welcome to True Cross Academy!" I couldn't seem to tare my eyes from the many buildings piled upon buildings, too stunned to reply. I failed to notice that we were both now walking side by side and in the open, allowing many people to eye me up and send judging and disapproving glares. Turning to one guy who had been gawking at me for quite a while, anger getting the best of me. "What!? Take a picture, It'll last longer!" He jumped in surprise and turned away, pretending nothing happened. "Yea that's right, look away!" I now turned my full attention to the Demon king in front of me, acknowledging the fact that he was chuckling at my little outburst. "My, you really need to learn how to contain those little outbursts of yours. Little Mrs temper tantrum" He placed a hand over his face and looked at me from the corner of his lush green eyes through the gaps between his fingers, just eagerly waiting for a reaction to the nickname. "What was that, filthy Demon!" He got exactly what he wanted and began laughing loudly, still walking beside me. "Is it your intention to keep referring to me as 'Filthy Demon' I'll have you know, I am very clean thank you. But i could say otherwise about you, tell me, When was the last time you actually had a decent meal, or even sleep and a proper bathe" Was he trying to get on my nerves, because it was working. I really don't understand why this guy gets to me so easily, if it was anyone else it wouldn't have bothered me as much. "That's non of your damn business, and what would you have me call you, Sir?" Just as i finished speaking i was roughly shoved into an alleyway by him and pinned against the wall, his body completely trapping me in with no space to move. His hand remained clamped over my mouth as he leaned his head closer to me trying to also become invisible to anyone who walked past, his other arm leaning against the wall beside my head to keep a steady balance, "Quiet." Slightly turning my head a little causing the side of my face to bury into the crook of his neck, leaning into his chest to look in the direction of where we were once walking, His head resting upon mine as he too, looked at the people running past.

"Yukio, what are we even doing here!?" "Can you please be quiet Rin, We're searching for Mephisto before he does something rash" "God knows what that freaky clown is doing, Probably picking up lost ¥100 bills off the floor as in there 'his thing' Serves him right for being stuck up"

Turning my gaze back onto Mephisto, i could see the deep frown carving itself into his face. Placing my hand onto his cheek to distract him and stop him from killing them. "Who are they?" He looked down at me, an agitated smile replacing his death glare. "Yukio and Rin Okumura, Students of mine" Removing my hand as he pushed against the wall pulling away from me and approaching them, "Is that how you see me Rin, I guess i can always lower your monthly allowance to ¥50" I slowly followed behind him and stopped as he did, Smiling at the fact that he just got mocked and he was threatening them with money. "Mephisto!" The supposedly one called Rin shouted, pointing at him and sweat dropping, smiling nervously. "You heard that!?" The dark blue haired boy put his arms in front of his face as in to protect himself "More importantly, How long have you been there?!" Yukio lost his stern composure for a second causing Mephisto's grin to become even creepier if possible, he soon regained his serenity in a flick of a switch, pushing his glasses into place. His ocean blue eyes scanned over Mephisto and flicked behind him noticing the familiar red cloak that matched the description, immediately becoming aware. "Sir. Pheles! Watch out Behind you!" Pulling out his gun and aiming right for me, his brother readied his sword but contemplated drawing it. A slick gloved hand placed itself upon the gun stopping it from shooting, its tight grip refusing to dismiss it "There will be none of that, she is with me now. So, do not lay a finger on her, understood" Due to me standing behind him i couldn't see his facial expression but from the lowness and commanding tone in his voice i could tell he was being serious, "Sir" he let go of the gun and watched it with narrowed eyes as it went back to its resting place. "Splendid" Clapping his hands together, immediately going back to his usual cheery self. "Wait, She!?" Rin began flipping out, his jaw hanging wide open. "Yes, she is indeed a grown woman. I could tell by the way her body felt against mi-" I interjected by brutally slamming my fist into his back, his eyes widened and his mouth flung open as saliva flew out as he tripped forwards landing flat on his face. "Don't test me perv" An audible gasp came from Yukio as he looked at the body laying on the floor, shock and fear filled him, worried how the demon would react. His brother looked like he was straining, he burst out laughing but stopped and shrieked as soon as Mephisto grabbed his ankle and shot him a death glare. He stood up brushing off any dirt that had gotten onto his white clothing, pretending that he didn't just get bested by a mortal girl. Before i could even comprehend what was happening, my cloaked forearm was grabbed and i was being dragged away by Mephisto as he waved. "We'll be taking our leave now, we will be seeing you in class tomorrow. Take care you two!" They stared at us in utter disbelief, but i was too distracted by the way he pulled my arm roughly so i was walking beside him still under his grip.

"That little stunt you pulled back there cannot go unpunished" "Oh, Kinky~ Depends what kind of punishment it is" I began laughing at him seeing his face drop and eyes widen as he choked on a cough, his head shot towards me "I'm joking, calm yourself. I wouldn't do anything like that with you, i ain't getting corrupted just yet" He stopped and cleared his throat, "Now that that's over" He grabbed my waist pulling me close to him, i was obviously trying to fight against it but soon gave up knowing full well he was stronger. He clicked his fingers and we were surrounded by pink smoke. Opening my eyes i came to a realization that he had let me go and we were now standing in the middle of a very large and fancy office, he walked over to the desk and sat at the chair behind it, motioning for me to sit in the chair on the other side which i complied after being nosy. Taking off his hat and placing on desk "Lets get to business, I'll have to go over some files on you with your approval of course" He said while crossing his right leg over the other, clicking his fingers once again as a bunch of paperwork appeared in his hand. I nodded my head allowing him to take some information, but i wasn't going to let him dig too deep into my past just yet. "How foolish of me to forget, may i ask for your name" I hesitated at first but he waited patiently "(Y/n)" He began writing it down but looked up after a few seconds, his green eyes burning into my scalp waiting for me to continue. He raised an eyebrow and spoke up "What, no last name?" "I don't have one" The clown let out a deep sign and face palmed, knowing that it was going to be hard to find anything about me without having a full name to go by. "bizarre" We sat in silence for a few moments as he smiled at the papers in his hand, engrossed within the white sheets "My My~" I was cut out of my thoughts by his amused tone of voice, he dropped the papers onto the desk and stood up. "Just who are you?" He slowly walked around it until he approached me "According to this" He stopped in front of me and leaned down, placing his hands on the arms of the chair either side of me, trapping me in. Inching dangerously close to my face as i could feel his warm breath on me every time he exhaled, he peeked under my hood and stared deep down into my (E/c) eyes. "You do not exist" I swallowed the large lump that built within my throat, his smirk ridiculing me. "It seems that you do not know just who you are either, I think i'll keep a special eye on you. For now, we will have to fill out your forms" Pulling back from the chair and standing to his full height, towering over me in the process. He retreated back to his chair, picking up the pen and holding it between gloved fingers. "Now dear, Mind telling me your age" "17" He hummed in response and it continued on like that for quite a while.

Tiny Timeskip

"Okay, last question. Why do you insist on hiding, why not show me what you look like beneath that cloak?" He got no response, his patience was becoming thin as he tapped his fingers on the wooden desk. "Is there something you're trying to hide from, or maybe, someone?" His thin eyebrows furrowed as i slammed my fist onto his table, anger consuming me "Enough! Don't go trying to pry into a past that has nothing to do with you, i will keep hidden what is better off not knowing. So butt out!" Silence followed, until he cleared his throat "I see, my apologies" I felt like such an idiot "I'm sorry, i shouldn't have lost it like that. I just prefer to not talk about it" "Oh darling, you don't need to apologize at all. If it was anyone's fault, its was mine for trying to pry in business that wasn't mine" Why did it always go back to awkward silences after? I tried distracting myself and noticed something green sprinting across the room. Staring at it with confusion and curiosity, one eyebrow furrowed while the other raised. Quickly shooting up and reaching for my back, pulling out an arrow and throwing it at the green thing as hard as i could, It hit the wall beside it, stopping it in its tracks. It let out a high pitched squeak and fell onto its back, legs kicking the air in a struggled attempt to roll over. "Ah Amaimon!" I turned to Mephisto hearing him squeal as he took in the sight of the green hamster in fear. "Amaimon? You mean the Demon king of Earth, What, that green thing? Pathetic" I couldn't help but laugh, that was his brother. In a puff of pink smoke, I felt my face drop as the smoke cleared. Seeing him in his human form, as he sat on the windowsill staring me down.
