Chapter 4:
Warnings and Unsure Feelings
Mao slept most of the day. He sat up with a headache from all the crying he did the night before. Sighing he rubbed his head which throbbed so badly. "Ouch … damn… this is all his fault…" He said as he looked towards Almaz's door. It was odd that he fake hero was being so silent. Usually he'd be scratching and begging to be let out through the door. Walking over, he slowly unlocked the door and walked in to see the blue hared male sleeping on the floor next to the door. His eyes had bags under them. What is this idiot doing? Sleeping like that… He won't have the energy to serve me if you sleep on the cold hard ground like that! Then he paused and thought about the night before. He didn't…. Was he listening to me doing that shameful act list night? The thought of himself crying like he did sent sickening shivers down his back as he looked down at the sleeping servant. He bend down and picked him up with ease. Then carefully he placed the sleeping male upon the bed and looked down at him again. He seemed so guilt ridden… Slowly Mao reached his hand out and pushed some of the blue hair away from Almaz's face. Catching his act, he quickly pulled his and away and gripped his wrist with his other free hand. W-what he hell was I just doing? This is utterly insane! The demon quickly looked away furiously. Getting up, he quickly walked out of the room and closed the door, locking it again. It's that damn manga's fault! I never acting this way before I read that stupid thing! He growled as he looked at the piles of books. When I get back I'll completely destroy all of those damned things! For now, I got bigger fish to fry! With this said, the young demon prince walked quickly out of his room to look for the Demonic delinquent.
The hallway was crowded like always by students skipping their classes. This meant only one thing. Raspberyl would be at school. Her classroom. Pushing though the crowd like an angry bull, he made his way to her classroom. He could hear her talking with her two friends. Just chatting away. Seeing them so happy made him so pissed off. This terrible excuse of a demon stolen the heart of his lowly servant. Kicking the door practically down he stopped in and walked over to Beryl's desk, flipping it across the room. "HOW DARE YOU SUDUCE MY SERVANT! YOU BETTER STAY AWAY FROM HIM BEFORE I RIP OUT YOUR GUTS AND DEVOUR THAT EMPTY THING CALLED YOUR HEART GOT IT?" The young demon girl just looked at him confused before breaking out into an uncontrollable laughter. "What are you talking about Mao? We hung out yesterday and he had to stay in my room because you had him locked out." "HE STAIED IN YOUR ROOM? WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO TO HIM YOU HEARTLESS BITCH?" He screamed getting close to her face growling hatefully. She just smiled. "Do you really want to know?" She asked softly. "We studied….. Then he slept on a bed on my floor. There… Happy?" She said teasingly. Then she quickly pecked his lips and laughed. Mao quickly pulled away rubbing his lips with his sleeves and spitting. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING NOW?" "It's it simple? Sure Almaz is sweet…. But he's not my type…." She smiled. He looked in shock at her blushing. "W-WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TRYING TO PULL-" "Sh… don't get too loud…. Isn't obvious that I like you? Why else would I think so highly of you?" She said trying not to laugh. Seeing him all pissed off because he was embarrassed was really cute. "Then again…. I'm not the one who you hold in your heart am I?" She snickered. His face got redder as he growled. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? I DON'T HOLD ANYONE IN MY HEART!" "Oh? Then tell me, why did you come all this way by yourself to tell me to stay away from Almaz? Can you answer me that?" The white haired demon paused. The more he thought, the more it seemed his reason was just jealousy. Simple, wild, untamed jealousy. His small body began to quiver as he glared at her darkly. He wanted to say something, but the words wouldn't come out. Beryl's grin widened at his silence.
"Well, I have to hurry to lunch now. We're having an awesome meal. Steamed vegetables, beef, and dragon eggs." Then she gently pushed passed him as her two friends followed. The boy stood in the empty room, looking at the ground in shock. Her question ringing in his head like a bell. He tightened his hands into tight fists and he suddenly punched one of the desks, breaking it into tiny pieces. "Damn it all…" He growled. Is she mocking me? That stupid insignificant piece of shit! I'll get her! I'll get her! I'LL GET HER!
