Amaimon X OC Kaine
Chapter 2~
"Cake shop! Cake shop!" Behemoth chanted, as Amaimon and his companion walked down the practically deserted midday sidewalks. "Please, just one piece?"
A harsh sigh left the Earth King, as he glanced down at his partner and found the little Hobgoblin looking up at him with hopeful eyes. Ones that Amaimon had never won against, as he held an arm out and the little Hobgoblin jumped onto his shoulder. The little demon easily perching himself on his shoulder, as Behemoth whined to push the issue further and Amaimon gave in as he gently scratched behind the demon's ear.
"Only this once, Behemoth." Amaimon spoke, as the little Hobgoblin let out a distorted cry of happiness. "You want to go to Kamiti's?"
A hyperactive nod was given as an answer, as the Earth King turned the corner and headed toward the little cake shop his partner had become addicted to. The two had found the little cake shop on their first day in town and both had a piece. To say the cake was fantastic was a compliment, but the fact that the owner was a female demon and allowed demons entry was even better. It was the only place Amaimon could take Behemoth to without worrying if another human saw his partner. Having to explain to a human he was hallucinating was one thing, but for the guy to grab Behemoth by the tail and for the little Hobgoblin to bite him was another. You never grabbed a fighting partner by the tail, nonetheless demand what the 'filthy disgusting' creature was. To be fair he had to smash the guy's face in, before he dragged a five hundred pound Behemoth out of the supermarket. To say the least he was banned from entering, but they never said Behemoth couldn't sneak in and torture the same man over and over again.
It was only when the guy had found them later and tried to shot his partner did the Earth King snap his neck and call it over with. To say the least that was his only kill in this pathetic town, and his lowest record yet, but he wasn't here to make a record. He was here to hide and so far he was doing better than he thought.
"Kamiti's!" Behemoth cheered, as he jumped up and down on his shoulder. "Cake!"
"You'll get some, just be patient." Amaimon spoke; as he walked up to the little petite coffee shop designed cake shop and walked inside.
The girl behind the counter perking up the moment the bell rang on the door, as strawberry pink hair and gold eyes turned to look at them. Just before she smiled and walked out from behind the glass counter of cakes and Behemoth jumped into her outstretched arms.
"Well hello, Behemoth." The teenage looking girl spoke, as he pet the small demon and listened to him purr. "You want the usual?"
"A piece please!" Behemoth politely asked, before she gave him a nod and the little Hobgoblin ran off to grab their table by the window.
"You want the same?" The girl asked, as she looked at the Earth King.
"You got anything new?" Amaimon asked; as she nodded and he followed her to the glass counter and pointed to a simple cake with whip cream and cut strawberries.
"One of our newbies made this one." The girl spoke, as she leaned on the counter. "He said it was strawberry cake, but the hell if I know."
"I'll try a piece." Amaimon spoke, as she looked at him in surprise and turned her head to the kitchen bustling behind her.
"Kaine, I need a piece of your strawberry cake and the demonic special!" The girl called, as the Earth King froze.
"I will have them in a moment!" Kaine's voice called back, as the girl looked at the Earth King and smirked.
"I see you two know one another. He came here today spewing that he met a kind demon last night by the name of Ami Kinsley. If I must say, I know you can lie better than that Amaimon." The girl spoke, as her eyes stayed on him and she punched their order into the cash register.
"If I were you I'd best keep your mouth shut about it, Kamiti." Amaimon spoke, as the girl's smirk widened. "For a succubus you're too nosey for your own good. Keep Kaine out of this."
"Do I hear a hint of anger in your voice, my prince?" Kamiti questioned, as Amaimon glared at the teenage disguised woman. "You mustn't let him find out."
"And in turn you keep my location secret from my older brother."
"Mephisto? Now what have you done?"
"Here is the cake you requested." Kaine's voice spoke, as the younger demon appeared behind the succubus and froze when his eyes fell on Amaimon. "Ami, I did not believe I would see you so soon."
"And neither did I." Amaimon spoke, as Kamiti smirked and took the two pieces of cake from the young demon and handed them to the Earth King as he paid for them. "Did your evening get better?"
"Y-yes, I returned home early thanks to your help." Kaine replied, as he gave him a small bow of the head and kept his gaze on the floor. "If I may be excused, I have a job to return to."
"Go ahead."
With another small bow the small demon walked back into the kitchen and Kamiti's smirked got wider. Something that the Earth King feared for, as she turned and called after the demon.
"Kaine, go ahead and take your break. You must want to talk to your colleague." Kamiti spoke, as the little demon stopped and looked back at her. "Go ahead and catch up, I won't dock you any time."
"I must thank you." Kaine spoke politely, before he walked off to take off his baking jacket and grab his lunch.
The Earth King sending the succubus a glare, before he walked over to his table and to a happily jumping Behemoth. The little Hobgoblin digging into his cake without a care in the world, as Amaimon roughly shoved his fork into the surprisingly soft textured cake and took a bite. The taste instantly sparking against the demon's tongue, as he stared down at the cake in surprise and didn't hear the smaller demon sit down.
"You look as if it is your first time eating cake." Kaine spoke, as the Earth King's head snapped up and met the smaller demon's gaze.
"This cake is new to me. The taste surprised me. It's fairly sweet." Amaimon replied, as the smaller demon's face flushed slightly and he opened his paper bag lunch.
"Are you a sweets person?" Kaine asked, as he pulled out half a sandwich and took a bite of it as the Earth King nodded. "So am I. I did not think anyone would like the recipe."
"Where did you get it?"
"A human gave me a copy of the recipe." Kaine spoke, as he looked over at the Earth King's partner and smiled before he gently pet the little Hobgoblin. "She was surprisingly kind and she died young. She gave her house to me on her deathbed. I am grateful for her generosity to a complete stranger like me."
With a start, the Earth King stared at the younger demon in slight shock and noticed the weak look in his eyes. The mint green orbs weighted down with exhaustion and abuse that Amaimon could only believe happened in the home that was graciously given to him. That monster of a demon that was cause of the smaller's suffering and pain, as the young demon lightly laughed at Behemoth's icing covered face and politely wiped his face with a napkin. The little Hobgoblin giving off a distorted purr, as Kaine spoke something in the Gehenna language and gave off a small laugh. His partner surprisingly jumping into the small demon's lap, as Amaimon lightly cursed and snapped back to reality.
"I apologize. He's never this friendly." Amaimon attempted to start his apology, before a smile appeared on the younger demon's face and Kaine gently scratched behind the Hobgoblin's ear.
"Your partner is fine. He is uncharacteristically friendly, but I find it sweet." Kaine spoke, as he returned to him lunch and continued to eat his small lunch with one hand. "Most Hobgoblins are dangerous, but yours is very rare."
"Cake good!" Behemoth purred, as Kaine chuckled and finished off his sandwich.
"I must head back." The young demon spoke, as he gently folded the worn paper bag up and gently pet the Hobgoblin in his lap. "I should not keep them waiting much longer."
For any human, they would've asked if the demon wanted more to eat. Offered to order him food or offer them some of theirs, but even Amaimon knew better. He was the complete stranger that had come across the younger in a cruel and forced passion situation and he had no role in meddling. For him to make an offer now would be an insult to both Kaine and that monster of a demon Kiru. The Earth King had no part in their arrangements and even if the teen had obvious signs of abuse littering his arms and small frame, he had no role in interfering.
To insult the demon now would kill all further contact between the two of them and ruin the future companionship that could happen in the future. Kaine may look fragile and small in his eyes, or in another's, but he couldn't stain the demon's pride. Behemoth may be the one who had the soft side for the abused and neglected, having been one of them in the past, but he couldn't take action. This demon was too precious and pure to be stained any further.
"May you have good day." Amaimon finally spoke, as Kaine looked at him and smiled.
"Thank you, and may you have one just as well." The small demon spoke, before he gave him a small bow and returned back to the kitchen when Behemoth jumped back onto the table.
His combat partner following the smaller demon with his eyes, before he was out of their sight and looked at the Earth king with saddened eyes. Ones that Amaimon avoided by going back to the strawberry cake he had bought, as the little Hobgoblin slumped on the table and his tail thumped against the table.
"Amaimon, he's-"
"I know, Behemoth, but this doesn't concern us." The Earth King spoke, as the little Hobgoblin's ears dropped and he let out a small-distorted whine. "Kaine can take care of himself. We have no right to interfere in his life."
"He's hurt really bad." Behemoth spoke, as he jumped into the Earth King's lap and rubbed his head against the male's stomach. "I can see it in his eyes, Amaimon. He has no one to turn to and he's afraid."
"Nonetheless, we have no right to interfere." Amaimon repeated, as he finished off his cake and looked down at his partner. The demon fairly aware of Kamiti's gaze drilling into the back of his head. "It is not in our place to disturb his life, Behemoth."
"Amai-"
"We should head back, Behemoth." The Earth King spoke, as he picked up his partner and set him on the tiled floor. A huff coming from the small demon, as the Earth King took their plastic plates and threw them out with the plastic silverware. The male giving the owner a small bow, despite the smirk on her face, and headed for the door. "Thank you for the cake, Kamiti."
"Sure thing." She called out, as the Earth King walked out of the shop with Behemoth on his heels. "Do come back!"
In response Amaimon didn't give a reply and headed down the sidewalk toward the rundown hotel. Behemoth hopping onto his shoulder and perching himself there to save him the walk home, as he looked at the demon and let out a whine. Sure enough Amaimon knew exactly what his partner was thinking, but to do so was beyond the male's standards. Going back to the cake shop would only shove him and Kaine closer and at the moment that wasn't needed. Kaine had to solve his problems on his own and Amaimon couldn't interfere. What happened in a demon's home was something another demon couldn't bother. It was custom, it was polite, and to do otherwise wounded not only the pride of the demon who owned the home; but also the ones closest to him. Who of course would be Kiru, the only demon that seemed to be in Kaine's life at the moment and the most dominate. If Amaimon interfered even in the slightest, Kaine was sure to be punished by the huge demon and the small demon had been through enough.
All the while they sat there, during the small lunch break Kaine was given, the Earth King could see the fresh burses littering the small demon's skin. At the time they were a light brown color, which only meant he had received them before he went to work. The coloration and the multitude of them had surprised the demon slightly, but in the end he hadn't said a word and kept his mouth shut. Kaine's injuries were something he couldn't involve himself in because of Kiru's obvious possessiveness over the small demon. The male didn't like other men touching Kaine, and if one did it was Kaine that was punished instead of the one responsible. So if the Earth King did try and help, not to say he would, Kaine would get hurt as a result. It was results like this that made the situation hopeless and non-approachable. There was no way to approach the young demon, and even if he did it wasn't wise. If his older brother ever found him, then Kaine would be dragged into it and it wasn't worth it. The young demon was better left alone, even if Behemoth insisted they help. The Earth King would never put an angel like that through further harm.
Scarlett: *waves happily* Hey, my cute little fans! I hope you're enjoying this fic. I finally got the time to post this chapter, so yeay!
Kaine: *raises hand* Can i just kill myself? Kiru is a bastard.
Scarlett: *frowns and bops him in the head* no, you can't. If you die then the story is over!
Kaine: *muttering* It'd save me the pain and humiliation
Scarlett: *wacks him with a book* Anyhow, thank you to the cute little fans who reviewed. I was only given one title idea, so for the mean time this fic will be left Untitled till i get a few more to choose from. So get those little brains working, and put in your title ideas!
Kaine: *holding head* Please, save me
blackirishawk: *smiles* yes, hun. This is the sequel to Sick at Heart and Amaimon and Kaine's story. And yes, Amaimon is somewhat tamed. You do have to remember though he's currently hiding from Mephisto, so he doesn't get dragged back to Ghenna. So there is a reason that he's tame. We can't have him getting into trouble, now can we?
Shadethedemon: I'm glad you're enjoying the fic already. And nice idea, but my brain is fried and I can't think of titles. So you go ahead and give me a few. Make them random for all i care. That's how I usually make them.
Terra SyNdrome: Glad you're loving it. Heres a new chapter for yah. Enjoy!
glittergirl73: I have to say that I love the title idea! It totally fits the fic and everything, but I'm going to see if anyone comes up with anymore ideas before I pick a winner. I hope you're loving the fic though. Enjoy this chapter!
