"ilL...ilL...ilL... I Love L ..."
It has been another three weeks since the incident with the Angels attacking us happened. We ve long since returned back home and resumed our daily school life.
Of course things have changed a bit. First of all, my house was renovated by Leas` parents - or their servants I should say - as compansation for not being there to defend us. And it s big now. Reeeaaaalyyy big. It basically is a two-level house with 3 balconys and 4 bedrooms in total. But anyways, I also improved quite a bit in using magic. I can now shoot lightning! Isn t that awesome? Of course it is!
When I was walking home - I m walking a different route now because I couldn t bare the memories connected with my usual one - I was accompanied by Lea and Cora. Both of them were really mysterious all day around me. But I didn t ask why. We soon arrived at my house and what I saw in my front yard, made by jaw drop down to the ground instantly. Around ten carton boxes - with some of them written "Attention:
Fragile" on them - were laying in front of my home. "So you re gonna help me move them inside or what?", Lea asked me. "Wait, those are yours`?" "No, not only. Some of it belongs to Cora." "But what does this mean?" "Well, we re moving in with you,
silly!", she replied tauntingly. Move in with me? What? Why? And what are my parents going to say? Why wasn t I asked of my aproval? "Ah, don t worry, Michael.
I ve cleared everything with your parents and they are fine with the two of us moving in". And with that the two girls each got a box and went inside. I was still standing there, unable to move a muscle. Then my body snapped and I got two boxes and went inside aswell. In the hallway my parents were both chatting with the two girls and then they saw me. "Ah, Michael! I m glad you ve got yourself such beautiful and educated ladies to move in with us!", my mother said with a smile from cheeck to cheek. That just caused me to blush instantly. I put down the two boxes I carried and went back outside for more while the four of them continued chatting.
When everything was settled and all the boxes were sorted out, I went into my room and fell into my bed face down. Geez, what a mess. Well, what was I thinking? That being a Devil would be easy peasy lemon squeezy? Just as I finished my thought, the door openend. I straightened up and saw that it was Lea coming in. She sat down beside me. "S-So... uhmm... t-thanks again for... you know... l-letting us live here with you." "No problem but..." I hesitated "What is it, Michael?" "... why didn t you tell me?" "Oh, I just wanted it to be a little surprising, that s all".
Well, she definitely achieved that. "Michael, there something else I want to tell you", Lea then continued with a sad expression. "What is it?" "In the Underworld it is important for High-class-Devils to stay with their own kin. So my parents arranged - because I am the next heiress of our household - a marriage between me and another High-class-Devil." My mind was blown. "S-So you re getting m-married?".
That s all I could bring out. I was really concentrating on not freaking out right now but it was hard. "Yes, I am. But I absolutely don t want to. The thing is,
my families` title always stood before my personal needs. But the right to marry who I want is a dream I would like to keep. At least I thought so". Her expression and her tone got much sadder. "... At least I thought so..." And she left.
I layed in bed this evening, thinking about what Lea told me today. "a dream I would like to keep", she said. Why do her parents take that away from her? Maybe it s just normal to do that in the Devil-Society. But still, that is not right.
Lea deserves to choose her partner on her own, even if it s not a high-class.
And with these thoughts I started to drift away...
click The door opened. Somebody came in and got closer to the bed. The person layed down right beside me and started to hug me. I hugged back. With that, both started to fall asleep. The other person was none other than... Lea
{In a dark room with monitors with Michael on them}
"S-So master. A-Are you r-ready for the m-marriage?" "Of course I am. But don t forget that I only have interest in the boy... he will show up... I just know that"
