"I won't attack you unless ordered to." Angel promised.
End of Recap~
"We will hold you to that promise." Yukio stated confidently. "Now can we go?" He inquired. "Some of us would like to change our cloths, as it has been 3 days."
"And some of us need a shower." Bon said. "We didn't know if the water in Gehenna was different from the water here so we weren't going to chance it." He replied to Angel's eyebrow raising.
"What do you mean; if it was going to harm you do you really think I wouldn't warn you?" Mephisto said in shock. "I don't leave my students to get hurt."
"It might have slipped your mind." Sheimi answered. "I know some of you don't shower at all." She said thinking about Ibis and shuddered. Angel noticed and looked at her inquisitively. Amaimon stepped over to her and without thinking pulled her into a hug. Angel noticed that Sheimi didn't pull away but leaned into him instead. Mephisto noticed that Angel was watching Amaimon and Sheimi and looked worried.
"Amaimon, shouldn't you be going now?" He said to his younger brother. Amaimon looked at Mephisto and noticing the look of caution in his eyes, nodded.
"I will see you all in class tomorrow." He said to the Cram Students. He then leapt into the air and disappeared from sight. Sheimi looked after him, her eyes detecting her mate's movements and sighed quietly.
"Let's go get cleaned up Nii-chan." She said to her familiar.
"NII" He responded happily. They turned and walked away from the clearing.
"Wait, we will go with you." Bon and the rest of the cram students followed after her as she left. Angel watched her leave and after a few minutes followed her. He quietly caught up with the group and followed silently, listening for their words. After five minutes his patience was rewarded.
"Sheimi, you should be more careful, not everyone is open-minded when it comes to the demon kings." Rin reminded her. "What if that asshole had noticed your cuddle moment with Amaimon?" He demanded as Sheimi shook her head. "You know that no one would let him anywhere near you if they found out about you two." He added to her denial. She stopped and turned around and looked at him in horror. She then noticed Angel and her eyes went wide in shock.
"Rin, shut up." She snapped at her friend. "This is not the time or the place for such a discussion." She said in hopes that Angel hadn't heard or put together the fact that she and Amaimon were mates.
"We are alone in an abandoned forest; I don't think there is a safer place to talk about this." Rin cut in.
"My mother knows and is okay with us so why should anyone else care about us dating?" She asked loudly.
"We all know you aren't just dating, you two are sleeping together and are all lovey-dovey." He snapped at her.
"We slept together once, Rin, ONLY ONCE!" She snarled at her best friend. "Yuki-chan, please help me." She begged. "Stop him, or we will have more problems." She said with a slight nod over Rin's head causing Yukio who was somewhat turned around to look over Rin's shoulder and notice the paladin following and listening to the conversation.
"Rin, we can discuss this elsewhere, or do you want Amaimon to attack you because you're upsetting Sheimi?" Yukio stated calmly. Rin looked at his twin and sighed.
"Alright, we can talk about it later." He said quietly, "Shall we expect you for dinner?" He asked Sheimi who nodded. "We WILL talk about this then."
Angel followed behind them as they reached a door. Yukio stopped and pulled out the key to the Shoppe and Sheimi, Rin, and he all walked through, followed discreetly by Angel, who closed the door behind himself.
"Mother, I'm back." Sheimi called to her mother, who came out to see her. "I would like a chance to change and then I will be going over to their place for dinner." She informed the manager. Her mother nodded and only stopped her to give her a hug as she passed.
"Boys, you can wait for her in the garden." The manager informed Rin and Yukio. "Welcome, how can I help you today sir?" She asked Angel.
"My name is Arthur August Angel. I am the Paladin and I would like to ask you about your daughter's relationship with the Earth King."
"Why do you want to know about that?" The manager asked cautiously. Angel looked at her in amusement.
"Most people who work with exorcists know that human-demon relationships are frowned on." Angel hedged. "So is it any wonder that I would inquire about them?"
"I see, Sheimi is dating Amaimon, if that is all you need to know please leave, you are intimidating my other customers." The manager stated calmly.
"How can you be so calm about this? She is sleeping with him." Angel threw out at the infuriating woman. "Do you not care that your daughter is bedding a demon?" He demanded. "He is not just any demon either; he is one of the 8 princes of hell! How can you not be concerned about that? She will be in contact to one of Satan's sons and you don't seem to care at all."
"You seem to forget that my daughter is already in contact with 2 other sons of Satan, and has met him herself." She looked at the enraged paladin, "She decided she wants to be with Amaimon, so who am I to demand the opposite, considering if I forbid her seeing him she will do it anyway and won't be as smart about it." She looked at Angel and shook her head. "You think I don't worry about her being with him? I see her every day and hope she doesn't get hurt because she can't control who she loves. Please understand that while I love my daughter, I also know her and how she acts. If I thought that she would obey me I would have told Sheimi not to go anywhere near him, but she will listen to her heart before she listens to me." With those words Sheimi's mother turned away from the paladin and walked away tears silently coursing down her cheeks. Angel watched her walk away in tears and turned quickly when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He found his face getting hit by Sheimi's fist, giving him a black eye.
"You do realize that attacking me is not a good idea." He snarled at the blonde. Her face darkened.
"I don't care, if I ever see you make my mother cry again, I will not stop chasing you until you have paid for hurting her." Sheimi warned with venom in her voice. "Get out of my house." She snapped at him when he just stared at her. "NOW!" She yelled furiously. "Don't make me actually attack you. I won't be so gentle next time I hit you."
"You call that gentle? You gave me a black eye!" Angel snapped at the angry girl. "And what can you do that is worse? Call your boyfriend?" He teased. "Yeah I know about you dating Amaimon. I don't care, I will just kill him." He boasted to Sheimi.
"Do I look like I need Amaimon's help kicking your ass?" Sheimi snarled. "I can hit harder, and in more dangerous places than your eyes. If I punch you hard enough in the nose I could kill you." She informed the indignant paladin. "I can do plenty of damage myself, without calling for Amaimon, Rin or Yukio."
"Do your worst, bitch." Angel challenged. "I can take everything you throw at me and give it back." He snapped.
"I seriously doubt that." She reached out a hand and slapped him so hard his neck nearly snapped. "Leave before I really lose my temper." She ordered him. "I don't like killing anything so please just leave before I lose my temper and kill you." She begged the blonde paladin. "And don't ever let me see you around my mother again." She called to him as he turned and left quickly.
"That was fun to watch." Amaimon stated jumping down from a branch high on a tree nearby. "I would have helped you know." She nodded. "But if you're not careful, you will reveal to everyone that you're a demon now." He warned her cautiously.
"Amaimon," Sheimi started still in a bad mood, causing her mate to back away from her in shock, "kiss me?" She asked in a small voice that made his heart pound. He reached out to her and pulled her to his chest and locked his lips with hers. Sheimi let out a small moan and wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling herself closer to him in an obvious attempt at being pressed against him. He responded by pressing her against his front and opening his mouth to allow her tongue to enter and play with his own. He growled when he felt her nip at his lips, ever so erotically.
"This isn't the place for this kind of thing." Amaimon stated while panting, trying to catch his breath. Sheimi pulled back and grabbed his hand pulling him towards her room out on the other side of the garden. When she passed through the kitchen she noticed the twins were still waiting on her. She silently cursed, having completely forgotten that they were waiting on her so they could finish their 'conversation' from earlier. Sheimi stopped and looked from the twins to Amaimon and back again, trying to decide what she wanted more. Amaimon, I am sorry but I did promise them that we could talk and…I understand, my dear. May I join you?Yes, if they agree. "Do you mind if I join you for dinner?" He asked his younger brothers, who shared a look that Amaimon was unable to understand. They both nodded, Rin more reluctantly than Yukio.
At the twin's dorm café
"Do you two realize that if Angel had seen your display as more than a friendly hug you could have been sentenced to death and Amaimon would be on every exorcist's hit list." Yukio stated to the Earth King and Queen. "You would have put Sheimi in danger and then you would lose your queen." He looked at Amaimon and seeing the horror in his older brother's eyes he softened his tone. "Sheimi, you need to be careful with how much you let people know about your relationship with Amaimon, not because of shame, but because if you tell the wrong person you will end up in the same predicament that Rin and my mother went through." He warned the blonde girl. "You aren't doing anything wrong but they will still want you dead. Just for sleeping with Amaimon, because another powerful demon is not wanted in Assiah."
"I understand that Yuki-chan, but I am kind of new at all this and I have always been a bad liar. I think we should tell the rest of the cram students, so that if I need to I can use my powers to help them." Yukio and Rin thought about it and both nodded. "The teachers as well." She added as an afterthought. They both nodded again as did Amaimon. "We will tell them tomorrow." Sheimi said, wanting to get it done as soon as possible.
"Good plan." Rin said. "Why couldn't we do this instead of trying to hide me?" He asked his little brother. "Oh and a random thought: Are you two going to get married like humans do?" He asked Amaimon. "Just a thought." He said when his older and younger brothers both glared at him. "It would tie you together in human terms and it might make the Church accept it better." He thought about it for a minute then said, "Let's eat." He and Yukio sat down facing each other, while Sheimi and Amaimon sat side by side. They ate in silence and when the meal was done they stood and after thanking Ukobach for the meal Amaimon and Sheimi left together, heading back to Sheimi's house.
