Whoo~sry 4 waiting...i'm busying with my exams lately... 15 isn't a good life! 0.0

It was not long then Nero was return to Dante's room. Dante looks very pale and frightened. He curled up into a ball shape beside Trish; Lady's pulling the blanket close to him.

"How...is Dante?"

Lady looked at Dante then back to Nero, she shook her head. "His mind's fragile and weak; he can't... be the normal-self for... I can't guess..."

It's hard for Dante to be himself again, with all this memories torturing his mind, he's all break down.

"Where's... him?" Lady asked, Nero dumbstruck a little, him? Then, he gets it...

"He told me that it's not time to meet Dante, he left..."

"That jackass..."

Lady scolded, Trish sighed and looked at Dante, who was now mumbling something weird again. Trish pets his head, Dante shivered a little but then clamed down, he leaned himself closer to Trish.

"Poor thing, how long he's going to suffer?" Trish asked, left the other two sighed, and then was left alone in their thoughts.

It wasn't long for them to stay with Dante; they eventually take turns to look after Dante. It was already three weeks after the mysterious girl attacked them; Dante shows no recover even after so many days of resting. He sometimes will shout at night because of having nightmares, Lady, Trish and Nero was always trying to comfort him but his state was getting worsen than ever.

"Aaahh!"

"Shush Dante, it's alright... It's alright..." Trish hugged Dante, she let Dante buried his head into her chest, and Dante's body was shivering like it was winter now. Lady sighed, she wanted to walk near Dante, feed him the medicine he was holding. But Dante shrieked and smacked Lady far from him; he didn't want to get hurt...

Lady gets up, the phone rang and Lady picked up, just then Nero was just finish having his bath. Kyrie's in the kitchen cooking lunch for them.

"Devil May Cry... Yes... We'll be there in five minutes..."

Lady hangs the phone, she carries Kalina Anne, Trish slowly let Dante lie at the couch, and get her own twin guns with her. If there's any job, Lady and Trish will handle it, they wanted Nero to take care of Dante. Since he's more capable and Dante relied on him much more then them.

"We'll be back soon then!"

Lady and Trish waved to Nero and walked out the shop. Kyrie's still busying in the kitchen, Nero seated himself near Dante. Dante moved a little, and then slowly crawl towards Nero lap; he sets his head on Nero's leg and fall asleep.

The door suddenly opened, but in a very soft sound. Nero gets ready with his Blue Rose, hoping it was just another customer. The blue coat shines under the sun, his silver hair spikes up and has the same blue eyes as Dante.

"V-Vergil?"

Vergil look at Nero, then Dante on his lap, sleeping. He walked near towards Nero; he bent down and caressed Dante's soft silver hair. Dante moan a bit then turn his body around, his face is now facing Vergil, but he didn't know.

Vergil looked at Dante's face carefully, then stood out and walked away. Nero looked at him, confused. "Why aren't you staying, Vergil?"

"I can't."

"You can."

"He's weak, kid. He cannot be frighten, am I right?"

Nero shrugged a little. Dante in his lap, turn around again, murmuring weird stuffs again. "I know that, but..."

Vergil walked away, before he fully takes his leave. He turned to Nero. "Hey kid, he's going to wake up, so prepare something sweet, like strawberry sundae maybe. I remember him like that kind of food..."

"W-why?" When Nero was going to asked why, Vergil's gone. Nero sat there puzzled, and then Dante suddenly shot up and cried. Nero was shocked by that and rushing to calm him. 'Damn! Why I have to do the babysitting!'

'Hey kid, he's going to wake up, so prepare something sweet, like strawberry sundae maybe. I remember him like that kind of food...'

Nero stared at the floor for a moment; he gently lay Dante down and rushes into the kitchen. Kyrie was boiling a pot of soup, and it smells real good. Kyrie notices Nero was searching something in the refrigerator.

"Nero, did you need anything?"

"Do we have any strawberry sundae?"

Kyrie thought for a moment then opened the freezer. She took out a cup of strawberry sundae. "This?"

Nero's eyes brighten up when he sees it; he took it and leaves a peck on Kyrie's forehead. "Thanks Kyrie!" And rushes out the kitchen again.

"Hey, Dante..." Dante stopped crying and look at Nero, his eyes then locked on the pink, cold, strawberry sundae!

"Strawberry sundae..." This was what it came out from Dante's mouth, he come up with that oh-so-pathetic smile to Nero. Smile? Wait, wait up! Dante's smiling!

Not noticing Dante's weak hands is trying to reach out the strawberry sundae Nero was holding, he was shocked and confused. Vergil do knows everything about Dante, and he knows lots!

'Why my hands feel so empty? I thought I am holding the strawberry...' Nero looked down and saw Dante happily scooping the strawberries into his mouth. Nero looked at him for a while... He then realizes something.

"DANTE! NO FOOD ON THE COUCH!"
