It has been a quiet 2 days since the run in at the park and Maou won't give in until Emi changes her rules. He is going to do what he wants in this world and the Hero isn't going to stop him. He wants to do the right thing by raising this kid with her but is certaintly not going to break Chiho's heart just to play family day with the Hero.
The day had been going fine, Suzuno stopped by and talked to Lucifer, Ashiya is in the process of making 'Cats doon', and Maou got a new issue of a book he wanted to read. Eveything was perfect until;
"Have you made a decision yet?" Maou looks up and sees the fiery haired girl hovering over him. He flips over the page he's reading and says, "Not answering you until you change your guidelines. Isn't that right Ashiya?" They both look over and sees Ashiya cornered by Alas. "Ashiya." Maou says annoyed. "Really Ashiya? You were a demon general and Satan's right hand man for hundreds of years, and you're scared of a two year old?!" Emi yells. "It's evil! Who knows what the Hero has trained it to do!" Ashiya replies.
"Totally Ashiya. It's the face of pure evil. Wait! Don't stare into her eyes, she'll steal your soul." Lucifer says sarcastically, while crawling out of his box that he was hiding in. "Oh hey, I forgot you were still alive." Emi says looking in his direction. "Hey! What's that supposed to mean?!" Lucifer shouts. "I haven't seen you in so long I forgot you were still here. I thought demon stupid and king idiot over here killed you because you're annoying." Hey don't call us stupid!" Ashiya stepped in a little closer but shreiked when the toddler got closer to him. " I rest my case." Emi said.
"Uh huh. Now when you're finished insulting my roommates you can go. I'm not going to ditch Chiho just so I can be a father with you. So either knock off your crap or leave us alone and go terrorize someone else." Maou said. "No way! I want my daughter to grow up right instead of to a broken family with people who hate each other!" Emi says. "Emi, her dad is King Satan and her mom is a Hero. She's not going to grow up right I can tell you that already." Emi glared at him and grabbed his hand and dragged him outside. "Wait! Hey! Emi!" Maou yelled in protests. She gets him outside and slams the door. "Emi what's the meaning of-" Emi pins him up against the wall and puts her lips up against Maou's. At that instant, all of his protests fades away and realization kicks in.
Emi slowly pulled back slowly and braced herself mentally for whatever Maou will throw at her. "You like me? I had no idea. I thought you hated me because of what happened in Ente Isla." Maou says softly. "You've changed and so have I." Emi replies with sad eyes, she sighs, "It's fine if you want to continue dating Chiho and be a dad to Alas. It was pretty selfish of me to do that." Emi goes back inside and Maou follows quickly. "Emi-" Maou tried to says something, anything but nothing came to mind. He was disorinented and everything was happening faster than he could process what was happening. Emi scooped up Alas and turned around.
"I'll drop her off with you later. We'll share her okay? I'll make a schedual later." Emi said. She hastily walked past him. "Emi! Wait!" But she closed the door. Not thinking of going after her he sighed in defeat. "Dammit." He whispered. "Woah. What just happened? You just managed Emi leave that quickly without here kicking and screaming. Whatcha do to piss her off without getting yourself killed?" Lucifer was grinning until he got a glance of his face and instantly regreted it. His expression of his face looked hurt. "Hey, what happened?" Lucifer said getting up and walking twords him with general concern. Maou rubbed his eyes. "Ugh, it's... it's." He ran his hands through his hair, still trying to figure out what happened himself before trying to answer any questions. But he just can't say nothings wrong and shrug it off because something definently happened.
"I don't think you'd guys would understand, I barely understand it myself and I feel like I'm gonna throw up. I feel horrible." Maou kneeled down onto the ground. He curled up with his knees touching his chest and rested his face in his lap. "Do you need to go to the hospital?" Lucifer asked. "NO! That's way too expensive! He'll be fine he just needs some medicine right sire?" They both look at him and see that his eyes are covered. He just shook his head. "No... I'm fine i just need to..." Maou trailed off. "Please tell us what's troubling you, sire." Ashiya said while giving him a reassuring pat on the back. "Yeah, come on sire." Lucifer says, mocking Ashiya. Maou gave a shakey sigh and said, "You guys won't make fun of me right?" Maou says concerned, but still not looking up. "Of course not, well at least I won't. And if the brat does we'll just break his laptop. Nah, we'll sell it and break him into pieces." Ashiya said looking at the violet haired boy. "Hey! I'm not that mean! And besidees the only reason why I'd make fun of you is cause you made fun of me when I was like this." Lucifer said, gestering to Maou.
"So will you tell us what happened?" Ashiya asked again. "When Emi dragged me outsided she kissed me and told me she liked me. I don't know what to do." Maou says. Both of them stared in awe as to think the hero, the one who terrorized them for the past year, liked him. "Do you like her?" Lucifer asked. Maou looked at him and slumped over "I don't know~" Maou whined. "Well you're going to have that figure that-"
*Knock knock knock*
"Please tell me you ordered pizza." Ashiya said to Lucifer. "It's not supposed to be here for another 15 minutes." Lucifer grinned and Ashiya punched him in the arm. "Oww~" Lucifer moaned while rubbing the place where Ashiya hit him. "Somebody answer it." Maou groaned, dreading it might be Emi again. " 'Kay." Lucifer said, getting up and answering the door. He swung it open and saw Suzuno. "Oh it's just you." Lucifer said opening the door wider for the girl to enter the small apartment. She qucikly shuffled in. "I know I said I would come back tomorrow but-" Suzuno said before glancing over at the situation. "May I ask what is going on? Are you okay?" She asked Maou, who was still laying on the kitchen floor. "Long story, don't want to go into details but my life is over. Suzuno please take care of Lucifer while I go into the afterlife." Maou says dramatically. "You're not gonna die! If you do die who's gonna pay the bills?! Ashiya?!" Lucifer argues. "We know it wouldn't be you that's for sure. Maybe we'd sell all of your stuff just to hold us by until I can get a more stable job." Ashiya says smug. Lucifer then got really defensive. "You know what!? Shut the hell up-!"
"Okay that's enough from all of you! Nobody's gonna die or have their stuff get sold so just calm down!" Suzuno shouts over the two of them. They both look at her with shock but then overlooked it. "Whatever." Lucifer shrugged. "Tehehehe!" Everyone looked over to see what was that giggle. Ashiya shrieked and jumped up. "Ahhh! It's back!" He pointed at the infant. "Infant Ashiya. It's an infant." Emi said. Suzuno looked over and saw that it was open. "You guys have a habit of leaving your door open huh?" Suzuno said. She got up and slammed it shut. Maou looked up and saw the fiery haired girl looking down on him. He then looked at the floor, "Hey." He said, not even thinking about looking at her. "I went to Mg Ronalds and got your schedual of when you work and I fit it so you can have time with her on your days off and I can have her when your working. She'll live with me but she can spend the night with you guys if you want." Emi says with a straight face. "...T-thats fine. I mean but um..." Maou was one again stumped of what to say. He was drawing a blank of what to say. "Emi, about what happened before..." She smiled, "Don't worry about it. It's nothing. Besides, you have Chiho-"
"I don't want Chiho anymore."
