~How unfortunate~ | Mephisto Pheles x Reader

Zwölf. Confessions?

Recap
"(Y/n), look at me. Do you trust me, i need you to say it" For the first time ever he looked scared, his eyes holding every negative emotion such as worry, pain, fear and doubt.

"I-i trust you!"

"Good, Let go"

------------------------

"You know if i survive this, we should have a movie night. Just the two of us, i mean unless you want to invite Amaimon, its fine either way" "(y/n)" He warned with a dangerous tone "Yea i know" I did as was told and closed my eyes, the last thing i saw before my eyes fluttered shut was his hand reaching out for mine, determination and desperation strongly evident on his face. The wind around me slamming against my skin and tearing apart my ear drums while i fell with my back facing the ground, "Its going to be okay" I whispered over and over again to reassure myself. "I survived this far, i refuse to go out that easily" My life flashed before my eyes, deja vu? My subconscious kept convincing me that i was going to die but the sentence i wished to hear repeated in my head 'i will protect you even if it costs me my life. So stay forever by my side' I didn't even get to tell him, tell him how i truly felt. Where is this coming from, I have only known him for a few days, i couldn't possibly fall for someone like him, or anyone at all. All i did was treat him coldly and shut him out, what difference would it have made letting him in? A demon and human relationship is just not compatible, its destined to end in disaster. An outcasted orphan like me has no right to feel pointless emotions like love, or be loved in return. "SHUT UP!" My hands shot for my eyes trying to hide from the world, the tears slipping past the cracks of my fingers. I could feel my body's weight lightning exceedingly as warm arms pulled me into them and wrapped me up tightly.

His heavy heartbeat pounding against my chest and short breaths blowing warmth onto my ear "You can open your eyes you know" "Refused" "Right, guess i have no other choice but to do this" Something warm unexpectedly smashed against my lips, the softness and gentleness of the object was comforting and slightly damp. Whatever it was tasted sweet and moved against my lips, in perfect sync with mine. A warm heat escaping the object and grazing against my lips as it pulled away, finally allowing my eyes to open and staring in disbelief seeing that the object was Mephisto. His plush lips capturing mine once again, his fingers finding their way into my hair pushing me more against his lips. Slightly pulling away enough to mumble against him "I must be dead" Deciding to enjoy the dream while it lasted and kissing back, i locked my arms around his neck feeling him smirk into the passionate gesture. Time seemed like it stopped allowing us all the time in the world to enjoy each others presence, sadly the need for oxygen grew too much but this gave him the perfect opportunity to speak "I can ensure you darling, this is very real" There was a long pause of silence as i tried getting my head around what he said, my hands slamming against his chest pushing him backwards. We had landed safely without me realizing so luckily i didn't fall to my death after pushing him away. "Why did you do that!?" Roughly rubbing my lips with the sleeve of the Yukata to rid myself of any germs he had smeared onto me, "I told you, you left me with no choice." He looked hurt "No one must know of this, it was a one time thing. Consider it your thank you for saving my life" "I-im surprised, i really don't know what to say" For the first time he stuttered, confusion and pain laced within his tone. "Can we just go. Please" "Of course, but first" He placed the hat on my head that i failed to notice went missing. I felt a coldness on my legs as he helped me sit down on the bench behind me, clicking his fingers and passing me the little cup of ice cream that rested on the palm of his hand. "My apology" Gratefully taking the cardboard cup in my hands and immediately digging in, his eyes watching my every move "Such mixed signals" "Hmm?" "I said i have no phone signal, I was going to check up on Amaimon. See if he caused any trouble again, he has a tendency to do that" My (E/c) eyes scanned his face watching as he typed on his phone, the other hand balled into a fist supporting his face, his pale cheek resting on it. The thought of near certain death dwelled on my mind, a violent shiver running down my spine.
