"Dad!" 9- years-old Lucy screamed as he saw Mundus trying to kill Leon and Lucy knows clearly why his father is ordering the soldiers to kill his one and only best friend. Leon had kissed him and convinced him to run away from the hell and his father won't allow that. From the very start, Mundus had seen Leon as a threat for him and was waiting for a wrong move Leon would make to punish the kid. Lucy had been wondering why Leon did kiss him. Mundus is holding Lucy's arm tightly. Lucy is crying while watching Leon being tortured.

"Dad! Stop this!" He begged. However, Mundus didn't say a word and acted like he never heard anything. Lucy watched Leon smiling at him while being tortured.

"Lucy… Don't worry about me, 'kay?" He said before getting hit again. Lucy closed his eyes and looked at his dad.

"Dad, let him go, please!" Lucy begged. Mundus turned to him with cold eyes. Mundus kneeled and held his cheeks. Leon's eyes widened.

"No! Don't do to Lucy what you did to my father!" Leon was hit again. Lucy was standing, frozen. He knows what his dad is going to do after what Leon had said.

Two thumbs had squished his eyeballs and it hurt like hell. What hurt him more is that, his dad is doing this to him.

"I'll spare his life… but…you shall never see his face again…"

"Lucy!" He heard Leon yelled his name. Mundus take his thumbs out of his son's eyes with the blood from the eyeballs. Lucy covered his eyes and screamed because of pain. As he removed his hands, he was now blind.

"LUCY!"

OoOoO

Lucy woke up from the bad dream. No, Lucy. It was not a bad dream. It's a bad part of your past. Lucy rubbed his eyes before he stood up from his bed and went downstairs to drink some water before he goes to sleep again. As he's walking down, he saw Dante sleeping on the couch. He shook his head. This guy's too tired and slept on the couch. Again.

He snuck his way to the kitchen trying not to make any sounds that will wake the elder. He took a clean glass and filled it with water. He heard someone yawned and footsteps walking towards the kitchen. Dante yelped as he saw Lucy.

"Damn, Lucy. You scared me!" Dante said. Lucy drank the water while the elder took a glass and started filling it. He took a good look at Lucy.

"Shorts?" Dante couldn't help but to ask.

"It's freaking hot, tonight." Lucy answered. "You're shirtless, though."

"Same reason as you, kid." Dante smirked as he thought of seducing the kid would be a good tease. He walked towards Lucy who had dropped his glass to the kitchen counter and moved back. Dante had his hands at the sides of the kitchen counter to trap the younger one.

"What are you doing, Dante?" Lucy raised his eyebrows for inquiry. Dante made a Cheshire cat grin before he went his face closer to the boy.

"Obviously, I'm trying to get into your pants." Dante answered.

OoOoO

Nero woke up from a nightmare. Well, maybe a dream in his demon side's point of view. He dreamed that he finally found a mate, and for the love of God, it was Dante, the motherfucking top candidate to be a motherfucking mate.

He stood up and walked downstairs to get something to drink. But the kitchen greeted him with Dante leaning down to Lucy. He was thankful that the whole place was dark not to see him. Nero felt like he was being shot by his Blue Rose in the heart.

"Shit…" Nero whispered and decided to get back to the room. Maybe those two were really in a relationship… He thought. He felt so…

Heartbroken?

God, this is so unlike him.

OoOoO

"Are you getting impatient about your sex life? The last time you did is 2 days ago, Dante." Lucy said.

"Hey, that was long, you know." The elder answered. After a couple of seconds, the glasses started rising and the water shook quite violently. Dante backed a little.

"Okay, kid. I'll stop. Just don't use your psycho kinesis to destroy this house." He said. Lucy snickered as everything was going down gently and the water is going back to normal. Dante sighed.

"You're no fun, you know." He said.

"You're the one who started it." Lucy answered as he went upstairs.

"If you're going to sleep on the couch, be aware you're going to have some marks tomorrow." Lucy warned, talking about the couch potatoes problems before he went back to his room. Dante shook his head as he took his red coat and black shirt on the sofa and went to his room.

OoOoO

Lucy had left early in the morning because of a demon dispatch given by Lady. Nero had woken up earlier than Dante and decided to cook something for breakfast as he saw the kitchen table empty when he walked downstairs. However, there is a plastic of potato chips at the kitchen counter. Must be Lucy's breakfast before he left. He thought.

Nero couldn't take off the scene he saw last night. He's still thinking about it. Does that mean Dante is really gay? Is Lucy really is Dante's lover? What about him?

Jealous, aren't we? His demon side teased.

"Shut up and let me cook." He answered back. He couldn't believe at the last question he just asked himself. He opened the cupboards but they're all empty.

"How come they could live by eating only pizza and potato chips?" Nero couldn't help but ask himself. The teen decided to get out and buy something for breakfast. As Nero had left for grocery, Dante woke up. His demon side could feel he's the only one in the house.

"Where the hell are they?!"

OoOoO

"Damn, more demons up here in the basement." Lucy whispered to himself as he shoot the demons using his Sora and Luna, the revolving twin guns. He then, changed it to Silver Slayers, the twin blade swords and started slashing the enemies. Obviously, the demons hadn't recognized him as Mundus' son and trying to kill him. Most demons don't recognize him, though. So he's pretty used about it. Besides, whenever he's killing his own kind, he felt a little joy inside. Lucy always remembers what his dad told him when he's still young. When demons don't know who you are, don't even spare their life. However, he just doesn't know if his dad had considered him a traitor from running away when he's 15. In any way, he's having fun now killing demons.

After he had finished his job without breaking any part of the building, he walked his way towards the house owner and asked for payment.

"Twenty bucks? I thought you said it will be five-hundred bucks." Lucy said. The owner just gave him a stern look.

"I have no time for those things. If you're unsatisfied with it, give it back to me." The man snickered. Lucy gave a bloodshot stare to the man. The whole things inside the house started rising and the bricks started cracking. The house owner looked at Lucy with fear.

"Wh-What's happening?!" The man asked, frightened. However, Lucy didn't say a word. The man hurriedly gave Lucy the amount he's asking. Lucy smiled.

"Thank you." Lucy dropped everything harshly that made the man scurried inside his own house. The teen had rode on his bike and drove his way back to the office.

OoOoO

Nero opened the office door while carrying two big paper bags and found Dante sitting on the office chair as if he's waiting for someone.

"Where have you been, kid?" The elder asked. Nero walked past to him and went to the kitchen.

"Somewhere. You don't have to know." He answered. The white-haired teen started putting the vegetables and spices he bought from the grocery. He placed the meats and fishes he bought to the fridge.

"Where did you have the money to buy those?" Dante asked. Nero was surprised to see that the elder had snuck his way to the kitchen.

"I had a leftover money before I live here. I used them." Nero answered. "Will you get out here, old man? I can't concentrate to cook here."

"Wow, what are you, a housewife?" Dante grinned. Nero blushed lightly and frowned.

"Just get out, old man!" Nero said. Dante waved his hand as he get out of the kitchen. If the white-haired teen is going to cook, there's no need to order pizza. The door opened again and it revealed Lucy.

"Where have you been, kid?" Dante asked again, this time, to Lucy.

"Some house." Lucy answered, feeling lazy to tell the whole story to Dante.

"I'm surprised that you're actually enjoying killing your own kind." Dante grinned. Lucy smirked that matches Dante's.

"They're all dickheads, anyway. My father included." Lucy answered. "Your dad seems to be a good guy, to be honest. Hell, he's really a good guy."

"That's my father." Dante answered. "And I'm thankful he made an awesome son like me."

"Whatever."

Nero tried his best to keep his attention to the kitchen. He almost sliced the slicing board in half because of a heart-wrenching emotion he's feeling right now.

If you're thinking of killing him, obviously, I won't help you doing that.

"I am not."

Oh really? Unaware that you're jealous?

"I am not jealous." Nero said, annoyed, trying to keep his voice low. He's praying that Dante couldn't hear his demon side right now.

As the cooking finished, he prepared the table for them to eat and called the others. They all sat down and started eating the meal Nero prepared for them.

"Nice! I don't know you could cook!" Lucy exclaimed, delighted at how tasty the curry Nero had prepared. That made the white-haired teen smiled from the compliment.

As they're enjoying eating, the phone rang. Dante stood up.

"I'll answer it." Dante said and walked towards the phone. He kept watching the two who seems to be enjoying each other's company. He can feel his demon side getting enraged.

"Devil may cry." He greeted. His eyebrows twitched as he heard a dark, hoarse voice.

"So, this is the last living son of Sparda. I heard you had two teenagers living under your care."

"Okay, who's this?" He asked. The man just chuckled.

"You don't have to know about it." The man over the phone answered. "Just enjoy the moments with them while it lasts. We'll never know what will happen to one of them, son of Sparda."

"What do you mean?"

"Our Lord's coming of earth is near. Just look at them."

Dante did. And the two were now playing with the food like little kids.

"You don't know what are you taking care of, son of Sparda. One of them has to kill you before you know it."

"If you're from the Order, I'm going to take this as a joke."

"Oh, you have guessed right. I am from the Order. But never take this as a joke, because one of them will be the key for Mundus' awakening."

In an instant, Dante had thought of Lucy.

"If you're thinking of Mundus' son, then, you are right." The man chuckled darkly.

"He's not going to do it." Dante's voice was low; trying not to make the others became worried.

"I am giving you a clue, son of Sparda. It depends on you if you don't want to listen to me." The man said. "Well, I'll be off. My time's up."

The phone beeped. Dante putted the phone down and tried not to think about it. Lucy noticed his change.

"What's wrong?" The boy asked.

"Nothing, some phone pranks from the teens with low-lives." He answered.

Secretly, he was hoping it was just a phone prank.

OoOoO

Author's notes: Yay! So, I changed Lucy's friend's name into Leon. I just think it will be much more cooler, though. Oh, and here's the drawing. art/Lucius-Francesceine-Klaine-355935408 Deviantart is starrycity
