Well here's chapter 2. Out of the three chapters for the pairings it'll be the shortest.

Chapter 1: B26

Fran sat down his mission report and spread out on his bed. His frog hat was for once not on his head. Instead it was on the other side of his bedroom having been thrown there when he entered.

The teal haired assassin shut his eyes and thought about the day's events. Most who knew him would think that nothing particularly interesting happened, and he would have agreed. If not for the meaning behind the question he had asked his senpai on their way back after their mission.

Flashback

"Hey. Bel-senpai?" Fran asked as he drove to the Varia headquarters. Belphegor, his partner, was seated next to him in the passenger's seat.

Bel did that odd laugh of his "Ushishishi. What Froggy?"

"Um…" Fran paused not sure on how to word his question.

"Spit it out Froggy!" Bel said as he pulled out one of his oddly shaped knives.

"What do you think of me?"

Bel seemed shocked at the question, but he easily answered and his answer made Fran's heart wrench.

"Ushi~ Froggy is Froggy. A toy to be played with and a target to practice on."

End

Fran mentally scowled. What the hell kind of answer is that! As the sentence ran through his head his emotions began to grow so as a precaution he took off his hell ring before curling up into a ball and muttering "Damn it senpai…"

He was about to create an illusion on the room so he could leave the mansion without actually leaving it, when someone burst in. Fran looked up and gave the person a bored stare.

"What, senpai?" he asked the blond, who had the oddest expression on his face.

"The Prince has something to tell you fro-"he paused and glanced at the discarded frog hat. His mouth gave a slight twitch before he quickly changed what he was going to say "Fran."

Said assassin felt his face heat up. Damn I'm glad I don't blush. He thought as he kept his expression neutral. Turning so he could sit cross legged he asked, "What is it?"

Bel sat on Fran's bed. What the blond prince said next thoroughly shocked the teal haired male. So much so that a bit of the emotion crossed his face.

"The pr- I'm sorry about my answer to your question earlier." He muttered as a faint blush crept its way onto the prince's cheeks. Fran hadn't a clue on what to say to that, but luckily for him he didn't have to, because Bel began talking again "Fran you're not a toy you're-I…" Bel trailed off making Fran wonder if he was flustered.

"Spit it out, senpai."

Bel paused before demanding "Put on the hat"

"wh-" Fran was cut off.

"Put on the hat!"

With a sigh he cast an illusion of the frog hat on his head. "Why must I wear this?"

"Because Froggy is Fran without his hat and the prince doesn't want to directly tell Fran that the prince loves him."

Fran felt his face heat up. "w-what?" he asked, the stutter showing emotion that his monotonous voice couldn't.

"The Prince loves his Fran and Froggy." Bel muttered.

Fran couldn't help the slight smile that crossed his face. Even if he was confused as to why Bel referred to "Froggy" and himself as separate entities, he had to admit, an embarrassed Belphegor is quite adorable. Deciding to play along with the princes "separate entity" way of thinking, he said "Fran loves you too, Bel-senpai."

-Present-

Ten year old Fran awoke with a start "hum. So those things are memories." Fran gave a monotonous chuckle "I can't believe my older self decided to start a love life in the midst of a world ending crisis."

"Oh, so you remember now Fran?"

Fran turned to the speaker, who he recognized as Reborn. He gave the hitman a blank look. "That might just make things a little more interesting. Anyway, I have a task for you." Reborn said as Fran stood up. The ex-Arcobaleno had grown taller and now reached to Fran's thigh.

Fran tilted his head questioningly "what task?"

Reborn smirked, "I want you to help with the love life of my student and his loyal puppy."
