It's All Fun and Games Till You Fall in Love

Chapter 11: A Demon's Nature

Rin rolled over, blinking as he felt alone in the big bed. He sat up and scowled as he looked around the room for any sight of the principal. When there was none, he pouted for a brief second, before standing and walking over to the window. Taped to it was a note, which he took down and raised a brow:

Rin,

I didn't want to wake you. In case you don't get this note there's another one in the bathroom, I wasn't sure which you'd reach first. I'll try to be back sooner, but I was told it'd be a minimum of four days. Just stay out of trouble and stay away from Amaimon. I took away his keys, but he still should be wandering about. I don't thrust him around you, especially after how he acted.

I love you Rin, I'm reluctantly growing impatient over the fact that I want to hear you say it back. Just a month away and you'll be ranked up two ranks, then I can. Which also reminds me, you have some studying to do. I left some books on your bed back in your dorm room. For obvious reasons, I can't just rank you up right away, you need to have some knowledge at least.

But enough about that. Be careful.

Mephisto

The words seemed so foreign to him. He wrote so carefree, less guarded than if he was talking out loud. He took the paper and folded it up, slipping it in his pocket as he headed to the door. He really needed to get his sword from his dorm. He was beginning to miss it, and the feeling of not having it was starting to get to him. On his way out the mansion, he noticed a figure out of the corner of his eye. Dark blue eyes met light blue as Amaimon peered at him from near a tree. Remembering his lover's words, Rin turned his head, ignoring the other as he walked down the street, heading straight for the dorm.

Walking into the room, he blinked not seeing his brother inside. Shrugging it off, he walked over to the bed, and smiled as he saw his sword placed next to a stack of books. Why he was so happy about books was beyond himself as he reached down touching the cover lightly of the top stacked book. He took a hold of his sword, and exited the room, heading to class, figuring that he missed enough class already.

Entering the room, everyone stared at him. Shima stood and ran over to him, hugging him tight as he gasped out: "I'm so glad you're ok!" Rin blanched, forgetting completely that him and Shima were fake going out.

"I need to talk to you," Rin whispered in his ear, hugging the other back, earning a nod of the head as he took his hand leading him to the back of the room, earning a glare from Bon as he passed him. Rin pulled out a piece of paper and a pen from Shima's bag, the monk chuckling as he did so knowing all to well that he never brought his own.

'Mephisto confessed to me.' He wrote, passing it to the other.

'Oh? That he loves you?' Shima wrote back, passing it right back.

'Yes. But there's a problem. I don't want anyone finding out. If they did, he'd be in trouble.'

'Yukio already knows. Shiemi too. He asked me to help break you both up. He doesn't seem to understand.' Rin blanched as he read this, the monk taking the paper back, writing more, 'We could trick them all? Still fake go out. That way, it would put the focus on you and I, not you and him. I sleep in a dorm by myself. We could always cover you sleeping over at his mansion with you sleeping over with me?' he suggested, passing the paper back.

'Renzo, I asked way to much of you already. Doing all this is just to much.'

'Renzo?' he chuckled after he write his own name, 'But any rate, I wasn't kidding. I love you Rin, I want you happy. If you being with the principal makes you happy, then I am happy.'

Rin stared at the paper a moment, before looking up at Shima, who was smiling happily at him. He shook his head and smiled. The monk's smile was contagious. If he hadn't already dedicated his heart to Mephisto he could honestly consider being with him instead of just portraying it.

Shima reached out and took the paper, shoving it in his bag as Yukio walked into the room, eying his older brother as he walked to the front. "You want me to kiss you?" Shima asked at a low whisper. Rin nodded slightly, the monk leaning over planting his lips upon the smaller man's, who kissed him back. The demon smirked into the monk's lips as he noticed his brother's lips thin front the front of the classroom.

Yukio coughed, making Shima pull back, smirking back to Rin, both of them looking to the front of the room. "We will be having a quiz today on all we learned last class. If you did your homework and paid attention you should have no problems," he explained, pulling out a small stack of papers making eye contact with all the students one by one. He walked around, handing everyone their papers, pausing to stare at Rin for a moment before handing him his, walking to the front of the room.

Rin took a pencil that Shima had handed him, and blinked looking at the top of his paper, a note written in Yukio's handwriting: 'I need to talk to you after class.' He looked up at his brother, who almost gave him a pleading look as he sat down in his seat, pulling out a book and beginning to read it.

As the bell rang, the Exwires piled out, Shima smiling at Rin as he stepped out, leaving the two brothers alone. "I saw you... you and Mephisto in bed..." Yukio started as the door shut. "I don't know what's going on, or what you're playing at-"

"Yukio listen to yourself. You're worse than the old man," Rin stated with a chuckle, smirking. "Look, I passed out at Mephisto's mansion, big deal, not like we did anything."

"I saw you were shirtless and he-"

"I was hot, I took my shirt off. So what?"

"You were cuddled up to him in your sleep!" Yukio started to yell, his brows furrowing in annoyance. "You had bruising all over... from sex! Don't tell me you don't!"

"They're from Shima you dumbshit!" Rin yelled back, getting annoyed, "I don't know what you are trying to prove you dumb four-eyed mole face! But seriously! I passed out at his mansion, if I 'cuddled up to him' or whatever it was while I was sleeping, that's it!"

The door opened, Shima walking in taking Rin's hand, keeping his eyes anywhere but the younger brother, "Yukio, don't make your brother mad, it's in bad character," he scolded, earning a bewildered look from the teacher. "Plus, everyone can hear you outside, and since Rin is my boyfriend it's my job to protect him, even if it is his brother and a teacher doing the yelling," he stated, confidently.

Rin looked from the confused Yukio to the warm, confident Shima, and smirked. This plan was working. "C'mon Shima," Rin said, taking his arm, leading him out of the room, glaring back at his brother for more theatrics.

As the door closed behind them, Shima smiled and laughed lightly, "The look on his face... was a bit promising," he admitted, watching as Rin let his arm go.

"Yeah," Rin laughed, smiling wide, "Thank you for this, I really appreciate it," he stated starting down the hall.

"I only ask for one thing," Shima admitted, making the other blink and turn around, looking to him questioningly, "Call me Renzo? I liked it," he rubbed the back of his head.

"Yeah, of course," Rin nodded, walking to their next class.

Amaimon hopped down from a rafter inside Yukio's classroom, hunched over, eyes wide. His eyes trailed over to Yukio, sticking his thumbnail in his mouth as he chewed, tilting his head to the side. "Do you think it's an act?" Yukio questioned, his brows furrowed.

"Hard to tell. He seems happy with the pink-haired one. But he also seems happy with my brother..." the green-haired demon stated, reflecting on how he acted when he was captured. He clung to him, didn't want him to leave, craved for his touch... "But, demon hormones are wild, especially within the first thirty to a hundred years of life. They lust and crave for sex..." his lips spread out in a wide smile, "We tend to have multiple partners... You're half demon, have you not felt the craving? Possibly for the girl?"

Yukio's eyes narrowed, "Leave me and Shiemi out of this. We are only splitting my brother and yours up," he warned, turning his back to Amaimon, who just snickered walking behind him and wrapping his arms around him.

"The craving is bad isn't it? But she doesn't put out?" Yukio scowled, putting his hand on his gun, pulling it out, and pointing it back at the demon.

"Get your hands off of m-" he was cut off by the older demon groping his front, letting out a gasp as he closed his eyes, the finger on the trigger flinching back as he bit his lip. "Let go of me," he stated, his voice shaking as the demon laughed lightly, doing as he was told.

"You're a demon, Yukio Okumura. Your instincts will take over if you don't do as they ask. You will rape the first person you come in contact with," he whispered, turning his back to him, chuckling as he left the room.

Yukio stayed still, his hand over his mouth as he stared at his desk. Was Amaimon right? Or was he just trying to mess with his mind, something he did oh so well? He heard the door open and looked to it, Shiemi entering, looking to him worried.

"Are you coming for lunch later, Yuki-chan?" she asked, timidly.

"Of course," Yukio smiled, earning a smile in return as she turned rushing out of the room. What was he going to tell Shiemi? He couldn't tell her the truth about it. It'd be too embarrassing for one thing... And how did Rin cope with it? Was Shima really all that willing to oblige to his every sexual craving?

He reached out closing the open book on his desk, letting out a sigh as he shook his head. Being a half demon was so much more work than being an exorcist. He briefly wondered if there was even more to being one than just the feelings of lust and anger. He did admit, there were times where he felt himself a bit overwhelmed by the feelings, and he wondered how long it would be till Amaimon's warning of him raping someone came true. He walked around his desk and sighed, plopping back in his chair, tracing the cover of the book absentmindedly as he thought.

"So, Mephisto is gone now, right after the Earth King kidnapped you? That must bite," Shima mused, standing over Rin who was sitting against a tree eating his lunch.

"I'm more annoyed that I couldn't tell them apart," Rin admitted, shoving a bite of his sandwich in his mouth, grumbling. "I just can't believe I couldn't tell..."

Shima smiled and slid down to sit next to Rin, putting a hand on his shoulder, "Some demons are crafty. Mephisto wasn't mad about it, so it's alright..." he paused and shook his head, "I mean he wasn't mad at you. You didn't do anything wrong."

The half demon nodded, looking up as he peered across the way, "He's watching us," he stated, watching Amaimon smile wide in his direction. "Renzo, can we go somewhere else?" he asked, looking down, uncomfortably. Shima shook his head, reaching around Rin's waist and pulling him into his lap. He held him there, even after the other blushed and struggled, hiding his face in his neck, sighing, making him freeze. "Renzo... don't" he whispered, biting his lip hard, the monk lifting his head and sighing.

"I'm sorry Rin. Even after you tell me about these urges you've been having, I still couldn't resist," he shook his head.

"Maybe we should stop?" Rin suggested, Shima shaking his head in return.

"I promise I'll guard myself more."

Rin didn't say anything. He simply looked back up, glaring at Amaimon, who giggled with delight, standing up and walking down the street, seeming to have a bounce in his step. The half demon didn't like this, he hated sneaking around and he hated the fact that his body was reacting to someone other than Mephisto. He lowered his head slightly, silently praying that the next few days would pass by quickly.

Review Responses:

Satanea Pheles: I apologize theres not a lot of fighting action going on right now, but I will admit I am playing around with some in the next chapter, especially with Yukio and Amaimon. Have I said too much? XD

Hobbles1993: Normally Yukio would never team up with Amaimon, but he simply want's Rin away from Mephisto so he's willing to try anything, even if it's torturing him to do so.

Jet: Haha, we'll see~

yummi-cake: Haha, thank you so much! It really mean's a lot to me x3, and don't worry I'm not all that fond of ShiemixYukio either, it's just part of the plot~

kdandsheela: Well, he "fell" in love later on, but he felt a connection earlier on around the time Rin was born, it wasn't until later on that he really noticed the connection was love x3

Zeitdieb: Yesh, Mephisto is really loyal to Rin, it's a shame that Rin doesn't seem to have the opportunity to be the same! Also, I don't really approve of Shura in general either, but she is great for a random character popping up helping the plot scoot along smoothly x3

ChiTsuki Takai: glad you think so! I always love adding a little sweet fluff where ever I can :D
