Recap:
Oga noticed this but thought nothing of it and finished the food on his plate. He waited till Hilda finished her plate before he took both their plates to the counter and proceeded to leave the room along with Hilda before they were stopped by his parents.
"Tatsumi, Hilda. We need to talk."
Secrets and Lies
Oga and Hilda were sitting beside each other on the couch in the living room. Oga had just explain to his parents what had happen four days ago and the reason why Beel was missing. Oga parents were standing across from them on the other side of the table. Both of them were sporting disappointed looks on their faces. Misaki was sitting on the couch off to the side, also sporting a disappointed look on her face as well.
"So let me get this straight. Beel was taken by Hilda's father four days ago, and he told her that she was no longer aloud to see him ever again. And now Hilda is depressed and you haven't gone to school since it happened because you have been comforting Hilda." Oga's mother stated calmly while eyeing the couple in question. Oga responded by nodding his head while Hilda just stared at her knees while leaning against Oga's side.
"So its all Tatsumi's fault." Misaki butted in while glaring daggers at her brother. Oga would have retorted back but he felt Hilda flinch slightly.
Hilda felt uneasy with this whole situation. True it was Oga's fault that her Young Master had been taken back by the Demon Lord but she couldn't shake the feeling that this was partially her fault as well. Not to mention that Oga had been the one taking care of her this entire time. She would have long since taken her own life if he hadn't. He had helped pull her from that depression and as thanks she was only causing him more grief. When she heard Misaki declare that it was all his fault she felt herself flinch and a feeling of guilt overcome her. She felt guilty that Oga was always the one that got blame whenever it came to these situations with his family. Before she didn't care but now things have change. After debating things over in her head for sometime she decided it was time she told the truth.
"Most of what you said is true. Beel-sama was taken but the man who took him was his own father." Oga was stunned at what she just said. He looked over to her in astonishment and was met with her own gaze full of a resolve he didn't really understand.
"Are you sure you want to do this." He asked her in a whisper. She looked into his eyes and nodded. "I think its about time they knew the truth." Hilda whispered firmly. Oga just nodded his head.
"What are you talking about Hilda?" Misaki asked.
"What I'm saying is that Beel-sama was taken back to his home by his actual father. Tatsumi was never the biological father nor was I the biological mother either." Hilda continued.
"So your saying it was all a lie?" Oga mother asked.
Hilda nodded her head in response before lowering it to stare at her knees. "The real reason we were here was because Beel-sama was sent here by his father to destroy the human world. Tatsumi was his contractor and was to act as his father in this world."
"Sent here... From where?" Oga's mother asked.
"The Demon world." Hilda stated.
"So that means you're-"
" A demon. Both me and Beel-sama. To be more specific I was his demon maidservant and Beel-sama was the Demon Lords son." Hilda said.
"And you knew all about this Tatsumi?" Oga's mother asked. Oga nodded his head in response. "Yes, we kept it a secret for Beel's safety." Oga stated.
Hilda lowered her head even more waiting for them to get mad at her and shun her for being a demon and lying to them. She expect them to yell at her and tell her to leave but it never happened.
"We're disappointed that you two didn't tell us from the begin, but we can forgive you both because you were just doing what was necessary for Beel's safety. As for you being a demon Hilda, you don't have to worry. We couldn't care less what you are." Oga's mother stated.
Hilda lifted her head in shock and was met with warm smiles from Oga's family. She smiled. This is what she loved the most about this family. That they could be so accepting of her even if she was so odd in this world. With that all over with, both Oga and Hilda got up and started heading to Oga's room until Hilda was stopped by Oga's mother.
"Hilda can we speak with for a minute, alone." Oga's mother asked. Hilda looked over to Tatsumi who nodded his head in support. "Of course." she agreed and follow Misaki and her mother into the kitchen. Once they entered they all sat down at the kitchen table.
"So what do you think of Tatsumi?" Misaki started. Hilda looked bewildered at her question. Seeing her bewilderment Oga's mother clarified. "What she means is do you have feeling for Tatsumi?"
Hilda pondered this question. Do I have feelings for him? When she thought about Tatsumi, a warm, tingly feeling started from her belly and spread out from there all the way to the tips of her fingers and toes. She felt her face heat up as well and her heart rate picked up. "I don't really know but whenever I'm near him I feel safer and at peace. I don't really understand what this means...?"
Both women smiled at her question which only confused Hilda even more before Oga's mother spoke up.
"Of course. That is what you call love."
"So I'm In love with Oga..." As she said this she felt her face heat up again and the warm feeling return. She never thought she would have ever said that. She remembered back to when they first met and how she thought of him as nothing better than the dirt under her feet. But now that all has changed. She remembered all the times Oga had been there for her. She remembered how agitated he was when she got stabbed by Hecadoth. And how happy she was when he came to rescue her from Jabberwock. After pondering over this in her head she came to the embarrassing realization that she liked it when Tatsumi was worried about her. With that she excused herself from the table and made her way up the stairs to Oga's room.
"Ahhh. The joys of young love." Oga's mom sighed. Misaki was sporting a huge grin on her face as she watched Hilda leave the room.
Oga was heading to his room after taking a shower and spotted Hilda coming up the stairs. He was about to ask her what his mom wanted to talk to her about when Hilda came up to him and hugged him tightly, snuggling her face into his chest.
"Thank you. For always being there for me." Hilda mumbled into his chest. Oga was shocked by what she said, but the shock wore off quickly and he wrapping his arms around her tightly and rested his head on top hers. "Don't mention it. We are family after all." Oga said before kissing the top of her head. Hilda felt the all familiar warm feeling course though her body, as well as her heart beat pick up speed so much she felt it might explode out of her chest. They stayed like that for many minutes before heading to Oga's room to get ready for the day.
It been three days since Hilda had revealed the secret to Oga's family. Things started looking brighter for the couple. Oga's family never changed how they treated Hilda, even after finding out she was a demon. Misaki even asked if she had any special abilities. All in all things were looking much better for Hilda.
Oga was on his way to his room from the bathroom after getting ready for bed. He was about to open his door when a hand caught his shoulder. He was seconds away from turning around to punch the person stupid enough to interrupt when he was on his way to bed, when said hand spun him around. He was shocked to see Yolda standing there with a finger to her lips shushing him.
"What the hell are you doing here." Oga whispered harshly.
"I heard what happened to my sister and came to see what kind of pitiful state she's in." Yolda stated simply in a whisper with a smirk on her face.
"If your only here to make fun of her then you better leave right now." He whispered theateningly.
"Why do you care. This has nothing to do with you anyway."
Oga's blood started to boil with rage as he heard the words spoken by the blond in front of him. He didn't know why but just hearing her bad mouthing Hilda enraged him. He roughly put his hands on her shoulders. "I don't care if your here to see her but I'm not just going to let you make fun of her." he whispered harshly.
Yolda's eyes widened as she saw the anger that was in his eyes. She wondered why he was so angry before she quickly put two and two together. "Wait you actually care about her?"
"What kind of stupid question is that. Of course I care about her. Ya baby Beel's not here but that doesn't change anything. Why do you think she's still here."
Yolda looked at him in surprise before smirking. "Hmpf. Well that's not the only reason I'm here. Rumor has been spreading around the Demon world about how your no longer the contractor to the young Demon Lord and the other royal families are plotting to make a move to get you as their contractor, so watch your back."
"He won't have to worry about watching his back because I'm here." a voice came from behind Oga. He turned around to see Hilda standing behind him with her hands on her hip and her visible eye narrowed at her sister. She walked up to Oga's side. "Now I think it's about time you left, Yolda" Hilda stated with an icy tone.
Yolda narrowed her eyes at Hilda before she smirked. She turned around and walk down the hall before vanishing, leaving the couple alone in the hallway. They both turned and walked back into Oga's room. Hilda got into the bed first, scooting over so Oga could get on. Oga lay down on his back as Hilda got comfortable on his side, resting her head on his shoulder.
"Did you mean what you said to my sister?" Hilda spoke softly, breaking the silence.
"So you heard that."
"Yeah..."
Oga was silent for a few moments before turning his head towards hers. She was looking at him. Her vibrant green eyes pierced his. After a while he spoke. "Yeah, I did mean it. Every word of it." Her eyes widened a bit after he said it. He looked into her eyes. "Even though Baby Beel isn't here, does't change the fact that I care about you." As he finished saying that he could see the tears in the corners of her eyes. But what shocked him was she was smiling a genuinely happy smile. He used his thumb and brushed the tears away.
Hilda had felt the ever familiar warm feeling that started from her belly and moved outward. Before she knew it she had repositioned herself on top of him, leaning her face forward until her lips were inches from his. She stared into his eyes, his eyes pleading for permission to which she nodded and he moved forward to capture her lips with his. She wrapped her hands around his neck as he wrapped his around her waist. They both nibbled at each other lips, teasing each other before they pulled apart, panting trying to catch their breaths. Hilda buried her face in the crook of his neck. Oga pulled the blanket over them both and wrapped his arms around her waist just a bit tighter than before.
They got comfortable in each others arms and for the first time in a while they both had a smile on their face as they fell asleep.
And done.
Hope you like it. Read and review please.
Till next time.
