"Ayato-kun, Asia-chan, I'll come later." Kurono called with a smile as they both left for school with Rias.
Today was the classroom visit although it was more of an open house display for parents and middle schoolers.
Ayato had his electric guitar slung over his back in its black case, his school bag looking fuller than normal as it held the change of clothes he needed for the talent show which started after lunch.
"… I am not interested." Rias spoke with a sigh, not liking the idea of her father and brother coming to watch her.
Ayato jumped slightly as his phone rang, pulling it from his pocket and quaking an eyebrow in confusion before answering it "Hey Ichika, What's wrong?"
[Well Soryu is coming along…] Ichika replied,
Ayato paused for a second as his eyes hardened slightly as he spoke "Just my luck…"
[Yeah…I know but we'll cope, we've dealt with worse before]
"Yeah…anyway Daisuke showed up for your bus right?"
[Oh yeah, yeah…I went round his folks place and used technique #7 to wake him up] Ichika replied with a chuckle, Ayato following suit as he remembered that particular one involved a bucket of freezing cold water and making the redhead think the house was on fire.
"Alright I'll see you at lunch then" Ayato spoke, noticing the pair of girls' looks at him as Ichika replied [Right, see ya then]
"What was that about?" Rias asked, Ayato slipping his phone back into his pocket as he spoke
"Ichika just telling me that he managed to get Daisuke up…the guy sleeps too much anyway
they'll be here with Agares-san at lunch time…" Rias nodded, reminding herself she had to greet the fellow High Class Devil then with Sona before Ayato added "…and Asuka's coming…"
… The mood in the Occult Research room was sombre, Ayato just finishing explaining what had happened between him and Asuka
"Afterwards I found out from a few others that she'd been playing pranks on others…I figured I should warn you just in case she tries anything else today
"Is she likely to?" Yuuto asked, Ayato shrugging as he answered
"No idea but best to be on guard around her" Yuuto nodded understandingly along with the other members.
…
When lunchtime came around, Ayato and Asia headed outside to buy something to drink, coincidentally finding Rias,Stella and Akeno standing in front of the vending machine
"Hey Buchou, Akeno-san, Stella" Ayato greeted, Asia smiling as she said her hellos as well.
"Ayato, Asia" Rias spoke with a slight sigh.
"Ayato-kun, Asia-chan" Akeno greeted with a smile, Ayato guessing she didn't like her family seeing her in class as he asked
"Ayato, Asia-chan" Stella spoke with a slight sigh
"Buchou, did Sirzechs-sama come?" She sighed as she put her hand on her forehead before replying "Yeah, he came along with my father."
"Ah, Buchou. Moreover, everyone came as well." Yuuto spoke as he appeared.
"Ara, Yuuto. Tea?" Rias asked, Yuuto pointing ahead of the corridor as he answered
"No, for some reason I heard a witch was doing a photography event so I thought to see it a bit." Ayato and Rias looked oddly at him.
Flashes kept going off, the men who were holding cameras were photographing something at a corner of the corridor.
Since there was a crowd present, Ayato couldn't see what they were taking pictures of although according to Yuuto it was a witch.
Managing to catch a glance as he got closer, Yukio realised it was a black haired bishoujo who was wearing a magical girl costume, spinning the stick she held to the excited cameramen. Rias arrived beside him after coming out of the crowd; as soon she looked forward to the Magical Girl and started to panic
"Wh-!"
"Hey! You're doing a photography shoot on a public path!" Saji shouted as he jumped through the crowd along with the girls of the student council following behind him as he continued
"Hey hey, disperse disperse! Today's the day for displaying classes to the public! Don't make a ruckus at this kind of place!"
"Right you heard him, get moving!" Yukio added with a smirk, Saji giving him a nod of thanks as the crowd disappeared quickly thanks to his pushing before he turned to the magical girl as he spoke
"You too, please don't wear that kind of costume. Wait, would you be a parent perhaps? Even if that's the case, you know there's a dress code according to the place. This is troublesome."
"Eh, but this is my uniform " The magical girl replied with a cute pose, Saji grinding his teeth before recognising Rias and lowering his head
"Oh, it's Rias-senpai. You came at the right time. I was just guiding Maou-sama and sempai's Otou-san." As Saji turned his head towards the back, under the guidance of Sona, the crimson haired males approached. "What's this? Saji, I always tell you to settle things concisely-." Sona spoke strictly until she saw the magical girl who called happily as she clung onto Sona "Sona-chan! Found you "
"Aah, it's you, Serafall. So you came here as well." Sirzechs called out to the cosplay girl without a care. "It's Leviathan-sama." Rias stated, Ayato looking at her oddly as she explained
"That person is 1 of the current 4 Dai-Maous, Serafall Leviathan-sama and also Sona's onee-sama." Saji looked shocked at the pair as Ayato moved over to him as he whispered "Not what I was expecting…"
"I know…I expected someone like Kaichou to begin with not…" Saji whispered back, signalling with the slight movement of a hand towards the two sisters.
"Serafall-sama, it's been a long time." Rias spoke up, sounding slightly unnerved
"Ara, Rias-chan Stella . Long time~ Have you been doing well?" Serafall asked in a cute tone before Rias answered
"Y-Yes. Thanks to you. Did you come today for Sona's class visit?"
"Yeah Sona-chan is really mean. She didn't tell me about today! Geez! Because of the shock, Onee-chan was going to attack Heaven " Yukio and Saji's eyes widened both in shock at the statement from the Maou before Rias spoke up
"Yukio. Greet her." Yukio nodded before giving her a bow as he spoke "Nice to meet you, I am Hosokawa Yukio. I am Rias Gremory-sama's Pawn & Stella Vermillion Gremory-sama's Queen. I'll be under your care."
"Nice to meet you . I am the Maou Serafall Leviathan. Call me Levi-tan " She responds turning sideways and making the peace sign before turning to call Sirzechs
"Hey, Sirzechs-chan. Is this boy the rumored Dragon-kun?"
"Yes, he's the person in which the Welsh Dragon resides, Kurogane Ayato-kun." Sirzechs answered, not affected by the chan that Serafall was using with his name before Serafall turned to talk to the crimson haired man next to Sirzechs.
"Ara ara, Uncle Gremory."
"Yes, Serafall-dono. This is another novel uniform. I somewhat think as a Maou how it is but…"
"Ara, uncle Don't you know? This is the fashion in this country, you know? "Heh, was that so. It seems this was my ignorance."
"Hahaha, Tou-ue, don't believe it."
"Wow…they're really relaxed given they got important duties" Ayato spoke, his hands slipping into his pockets as Rias spoke "I forgot to say it-No, I didn't want to say it but the current 4 Maou-sama, all of them are like this.
During private times, they are light mooded, to a severe extent." Rias said while letting out a sigh.
Ayato noted how embarrassed Sona was looking by the whole thing, Serafall soon noticing as well as she asked
"Sona-chan, what's wrong? Your face is completely red, you know? Since it's the long awaited reunion with your onee-sama, me, I think it would be better if you were a bit more happy? 'Onee-sama!' 'So-tan!', calling like that and embracing each other in a yuri way, that sort of development is fine with me as well, Onee-chan!" Sona's eyes were twitching as she looked unsatisfied before speaking
"…O-Onee-sama. This is my school and I am entrusted with the job of the student council president here… No matter how close relatives we are, Onee-sama's behaviour is too much… I can't approve of that sort of outfit."
"No way, Sona-chan! If I am told that by Sona-chan, your Onee-chan will be sad! Sona-chan doesn't know that her onee-chan is admired as the Magical girl! Since with the glittering stick, I erase angels and fallen angels ."
"Onee-sama, Please be prudent. If my onee-sama, the Maou glitters, then this small country would be destroyed many times over." Ayato gulped at that before turning to speak to Saji again
"Hey, Gen. When one of the leaders of the fallen angels invaded, Kaichou didn't call her Onee-san…Because she's like this"
"Yeah… Serafall Leviathan-sama dotes on her little sister so much, if she would have been called, it would have become something terrible. It seems if she found out that her little sister was injured by the fallen angel, we didn't know how she would have reacted. It would have probably been instant war. It was the correct decision to not call Serafall-sama, and rather Lucifer-sama. However, I am meeting her for the first time as well, but this is…" Saji replied bewildered before Sona's eyes became wet and she ran away shouting
"Uuh, I can't bear it!" "Wait! Sona-chan! Where are you going leaving your Onee-chan behind!" Serafall ran behind her as Sona called back "Please don't follow me!"
"Noooooo! Don't abandon your Onee-chaaaaaaan! So-taaaaaan!"
"I have asked you so many times not to add 'tan'!" Saji and the other head off after the pair, Ayato reminding the lone boy about getting to the gym to help set up.
"So much for meeting with Agares-san" Yukio spoke with a sigh more to himself as Rias remembered about it before Sirzechs spoke
"Yeah. The Sitri household is peaceful. Don't you think so, Ria-tan."
"Onii-sama, don't add a 'tan' to my pet name and call me please…" Rias spoke embarrassed before Sirzechs teased
"No way…Ria-tan. Even though in the past you followed me everytime while saying 'Onii-sama Onii-sama'… It's the rebellious age, huh…"
"Geez! Onii-sama! Why do you remind me of my childhood-." Rias' father took a picture of her mad as he spoke
"That's a nice face, Rias. It's good, to raise you so splendidly…... I will fill my wife's share of enthusiasm as she couldn't come here today."
"Otou-sama! Geez!"
"Maou-sama and, Maou-sama's family have interesting common features." Akeno said happily with a smile
"Common features?" "Maou-sama and everyone are all just amusing. And also, your Aunt, without exception, is a serious person.
Ufufu, definitely because her free natured brother became the Maou-sama, she couldn't not become serious." Akeno answered, Ayato nodding as he understood what she meant before hearing
"Oh my, Ayato"
"Hey Aunt Kurono," Ayato said with a smile
"Kurogane Ayato-kun, is she your Aunt?" Rias' father asked him, Ayato nodding as he answered "Y-Yes. She's my Aunt"
"I see. Yeah." Rias' father stood before Keiko and put his hand out for a handshake as he spoke "Nice to meet you, I am Rias' father." Keiko accepted it with a smile as she replied "It's nice to meet you too. I've been taking care of Rias-san with Little Nephew's help"
Now it was Ayato's turn to be embarrassed as Rias' father spoke "No, same here. Thanks for taking care of Rias. I thought to come greet you anyhow, anyway, Sirzechs and I were busy with work so weren't easily able to get an opportunity.
It seems this occasion was blessed by good luck. It's an honour to meet you today." Ayato turned to see Rias' face bright red as well at the meeting of her father with Kurono as Rias' father spoke
"Let's talk at a calmer place. This place is a bit conspicuous. Above all, our children are embarrassed, right." Rias' father extends his hand towards Yuuto as he spoke
"Kiba-kun."
"Yes."
"
Sorry but could you lead us to a calmer place?"
"Yes. Then, please follow me." Yuuto bows to Kurono and starts walking in the corridor.
"Well then Rias, Kurogane Ayato-kun. I'll come back after talking a bit. Sirzechs, can I leave the rest to you?"
"Yes, Otou-ue." Sirzechs replied
"Little Nephew, I'll come back after talking a bit."
"Right Aunt Kurono, just don't say anything embarrassing, okay?"
"Leave it to me." Kurono replied, flashing a smile that said that's exactly what she was going to do as the trio left.
"We best head outside to meet Agares-san" Ayato spoke, Rias nodding as they and Sirzechs headed outside to find a coach pulling up outside of the school.
"Ay!" Daisuke shouted as he came off the coach, waving at him as Ichika and a black haired young woman about Rias' age came off the bus dressed in her own school uniform which was a white blouse which had a red bow in the collar and a knee length yellow skirt.
"Nice to meet you, Gremory-san" She greeted with a small smile, Shinji ushering Ayato to help with unloading the drum kit and leaving the two High Class Devils to talk as other students got off, a red haired girl looking over at Ayato.
"Where's Gen?" Ichika asked as they headed over to Daisuke, Ayato explaining what had happened before only to find surprised faces looking back at him.
"Leviathan-sama is like that…?" Shinji asked, Ayato nodding as they started to head back to their fellow Devils, stopping as Sirzechs spoke up "Rias & Stella"
"What is it, Onii-sama?" They asked curiously.
"There's something I wanted to talk about for a bit. Sorry, Ayato-kun. I'll be borrowing my little sister for a bit. Akeno-kun, would you mind coming along with us?" Sirzechs replied.
"Yes." Akeno affirmed "
Y-Yes. It's fine with me…..." Ayato replied, Ichika smirking while Daisuke grinned at his reaction, Sirzechs taking Rias and Stella and Akeno off somewhere leaving Asia and the trio of boys
"I'm returning to our class" Asia spoke, Ayato nodding as he was reminded that they had to get things set up as he spoke
"Alright…oh, can you grab my guitar" Asia nodded as she headed off back to class to grab it for him.
"Ayato…" A familiar voice called from behind, Daisuke and ichika turning to look at her before Ayato spoke up "Come on then let's get moving" With that Ayato led Daisuke and Ichika inside to get ready.
… The school hall was packed with students, Rias and her fellow Devils stood near the back and had a good view of the stage.
Sirzechs smiled as he leant towards Kurono who had her camcorder pointed towards the stage. "Can I have a copy of the performance afterwards?" Kurono's smile grew as she nodded.
Rias turns to see the two older siblings look innocently back at her before turning to see Sona and Serafall standing nearby.
[And now it's onto our final act…] The announcer spoke through the microphone, signalling on for the quartet of Devils to step out into view of the crowd.
Ayato was now wearing a black short sleeved shirt and slacks, a comfortable pair of trainers on his feet and a red tie loosely tied to cover up the open top button.
Behind him on the strap that hung over his left shoulder was his electric guitar.
Saji had also changed into a blue shirt which had the top button undone and black slacks and shoes, his bass guitar hung around his front.
Shinji was dressed like Saji but had a white shirt on and a black waistcoat and Daisuke was wearing just a black tank top and jeans with fingerless gloves on his hands.
Ayato looked back to see Daisuke nod before glancing at Ichika and Saji to check they were ready before he called out "1, 2…a ."
{Guess who just got back today?
Them wild-eyed boys that'd been away
Haven't changed, had much to say
But man, I still think them cats are crazy
They were asking' if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
Told 'em you were livin' downtown
Drivin' all the old men crazy
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
I said the boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
You know that chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor, shakin' what she's got
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean, she was steaming
And that time over at Johnny's place
Well, this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
Man, we just fell about the place
If that chick don't wanna know, forget her
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
I said, the boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
Spread the word around
Guess who's back in town
Just spread the word around
Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's Bar and Grill
The drink will flow and blood will spill
And if the boys wanna fight, you better let 'em
That jukebox in the corner blastin' out my favorite song
The nights are getting longer, it won't be long
Won't be long 'til summer comes
Now that the boys are here again
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
(Spread the word around)
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
(The boys are back, the boys are back)
The boys are back in town again
Been hangin' down at Dino's
The boys are back in town again
Ayato couldn't help smiling as they finished their first song, his nerves over playing in front of a crowd had disappeared the moment he'd noticed the crowd was enjoying themselves.
Glancing over to Saji, the silver haired teen could tell he was slightly nervous over what would be happening next as he moved to take behind the mic stand in the middle, Ayato moving to where Saji had been standing on the left as Ichika spoke up through the mics [And you were worried you'd make a mistake]
[Hey…It's been a while since we've played, Ok ] Ayato replied, Saji chuckling as Ayato added [Anyway time for Gen to enjoy the spotlight…Ready?] Saji shook his head before sighing and nodding as they started to play the second song.
As you walk my way
Do you see my face
Sad behind a smile
Fake it for awhile
Tell me what should I do?
Can I get closer to you
Tell me the truth
Can I get an answer from you
Show me a sign
Here I stand with my heart in my hands
And all I do
To get closer to you
As I stand alone
Sinking like a stone
You can save me now
I can't live without
Tell me what should I do?
Can I get closer to you
Tell me the truth
Can I get an answer from you
Show me a sign
Here I stand with my heart in my hands
And all I do
To get closer to you
If you walked my way
Would you see my face?
Can I get closer to you
Tell me the truth
Can I get an answer from you
Show me a sign
Here I stand with my heart in my hands
And all I do
To get closer to you
To get closer to you
And all I do
To get closer to you
And all I do
To get closer to you
And all I do
Saji sighed in relief as he stepped back from the mic stand, Ayato patting him on the shoulder as the crowd's applaud died down, taking the mic [Now you all should feel special…He's fairly new at leading the vocals, right Ichi]
[Yeah, you're the showoff of the group] Ichika replied with a smirk, Ayato scratching the back of his head embarrassed slightly.
[I second that] Saji spoke from another mic before glancing back at Daisuke as he added
[Dai agrees as well…]
[Just cause I can multitask?] Ayato asked with a sarcastic look.
[Anyway haven't you got a special song to sing now, Ay?] Shinji asked with a smirk, Ayato rolling his eyes as he looked through the crowds before spotting Rias & Nene & Stella as he took a deep breathe to steady himself before giving a nod to the others to start
In the biblical sense and sensibility
Let me know you
I'll kiss that smile off your face just say when
Just say when.
I'm not afraid to say "I love you"
Any more than I used to be babe I am scared to death
To fall in love (with you)
All these pick-up lines from hell
Icebreakers infernal
From a heart so black and blue
Only for you
Just say when again.
I'm not afraid to say, "I love you."
Any more than I used to be, babe.
I am scared to death.
I am scared to death to fall in love with you.
With you.
I'm not afraid to say, "I love you."
Anymore than I used to be, babe.
I am scared to death.
I am scared to death to fall in love.
I'm not afraid to admit I adore you
Any more than I was before babe I am scared to death
To fall in love with you
With you.
With you.
I'm scared to death.
I'm scared to death.
I'm scared to death.
And you're sweet like poison.
He sighed in relief, noticing Rias Stella & Nene' cheeks were bright red and Their eyes were wide. Serafall seemed to be staring at him with red cheeks along with most of the girls in the hall and Kurono was smiling at the tease material she'd just got.
Ayato ran a hand through his hair before noticing the knowing looks from Shinji and Saji as he coughed into his hand before speaking
[Well…Now let's get to what we normally play, guys]
[Yeah, yeah just cause you get embarrassed by singing slow songs] Ichika spoke up, Ayato's cheeks darkening as he shook his head [
You guys will enjoy our last one.] Saji spoke with a chuckle, plucking at his bass strings as he waited for the other three to jump in.
{Can't you feel it rising' through you
So alive now closing' in
I'm your deviant I'm your hero
From this dog's life can't seem to win
But I want it all
I got my eyes on your salvation
And I want it all
Comin' alive with a new revelation
That I want it all
Long time gone now since you've been able
To find your way home through the dark
Underrated super-jaded
Can't decide now whose side you're on
I want it all
I wanna know
If you got your mind on a revolution of the soul
'cause I got my eyes on your salvation
And I want it all
Comin' alive with a new revelation
That I want it all}
Everyone was cheering as the last notes rang out, Ichika and Saji still bouncing slightly on their feet as Ayato relaxed and the announcer shouted into the mic [You think these guys should win?]
"Encore!" The roar of the crowd seemed to provide an instant reply as Daisuke chuckled as he sat back into the stool behind the drum kit.
"Looks like they're not letting us off easy"
"So what is it going to be lads?" Saji asked, looking between them
"Reminded?" Shinji asked
"That's a great idea" Yukio replied before heading back to the mic stand as he called out [Alright…One last song]
Whoops and catcalls came from the crowd, the quartet of boys chuckling as they started to play again.
{Down too long like I was before
And I've never thought I'd see the day
Can't be wrong 'cause I know the score
And I guess there is no other way
Reminded of you, reminded of you
Reminded of you, reminded of you
Reminded
There it is all in black and white
And it looks like that's the way it goes
Doesn't matter whether it's wrong or right
Because now I'm sure that I know
Reminded of you, reminded of you
Reminded of you, reminded of you
Reminded
Never felt so undecided, undecided
Everything I've ever had has been taken away
Little boy so scared and frightened, scared and frightened
All of the things that have happened I'm surely to blame, blame
Accept your fate then you'll be well
But the truth is that it never ends
You can say that you've been through hell
But you'll always lose another friend
Reminded of you, reminded of you
Reminded of you, reminded of you
Reminded
Never felt so unimportant, unimportant
Everything I've ever said has been taken in vain
Little girl so scared and frightened, scared and frightened
All of the things that I do are still subject to change
Reminded of you, reminded of you
Reminded of you, reminded of you
Reminded of you, reminded of you
Reminded of you, reminded of you
Reminded}
…
"Ayato…I'm sorry" Asuka spoke to him as did other students
"Sorry for what? Sorry you did it or are you sorry that you actually got caught before you had a chance to do it." Ayato asked, the edge to his voice making her cringe as he added
"If you were actually sorry why didn't you ever call me or even send me a letter or a text message saying you were sorry." Asuka looked down ashamed at what he'd said to her taking a few moments of quiet before speaking up
"I wish I could've but I was too stubborn to do it before"
"Apology accepted as long as you never prank anyone again" Ayato spoke as Asuka nodded with a small smile before heading back to her friends.
"That was amazing Ay-tan" Serafall called as she rushed over, Ayato looking confused at the Maou who suddenly glomped onto him, Ichika Daisuke and Saji all laughing as Rias and Sona approached embarrassed as the silver haired teen spoke embarrassed "Thank you Leviathan-sama"
"Serafall-sama can you get off our Ayato" Rias spoke, Serafall tightening her hold on him as she replied
"Rias-tan Stella-tan, you know I love musicians…" Ayato blushed as he looked between the Maou sitting on his lap and his masters who were looking annoyed at them.
"What did you think, Kaichou?" Saji asked Sona who took a moment to think before replying
"You all did great…" Saji's smile grew as he helped Ichika and Daisuke pack things up, Ayato helping out once Serafall had let him go.
…
They'd happily give their goodbyes to Agares, Ichika and Daisuke who left on the bus with the rest of their fellow schoolmates.
Serafall had headed back to the underworld after causing Rias to fume by kissing Ayato on the cheek.
"Ara, Asia-chan, you're looking good in the video!" Kurono gushed as she looked at the video on the TV.
"Hahahaha! Paying attention to a daughter's blossoming is a parent's duty, after all!" While drinking sake, Rias' father heartily laughed.
After dinner at the Dorm Room,the admiration meeting for today's classroom visit had begun.
The participants were Kurono, Rias' father and Sirzechs who each were drinking sake as they compared videos.
Asia, Yukio and Rias & Stella were at the end of the living room with red faces while praying that it would be over soon. Ayato wasn't sure what Kurono and Rias' father had talked about in school but they had seemed to hit it off well
"This is… A hell, the likes of which hasn't been seen before...…" Rias spoke as her whole body shook, Ayato nodding
"Please look! Our Ria-tan is raising her hand and answering Sensei's question!" Sirzechs spoke, Rias covering her face with her hands before shouting "I can't bear it! Onii-sama, you idiot!" Then she ran off, not able to bear it anymore, Sirzechs soon hit on the head by Grayfia's paper fan
"Rias-sama!" Ayato called as he chased after her, finding her sitting before his room, puffing out her cheeks in displeasure as Ayato spoke
"Would you like to enter my room?" Rias nodded before Ayato opened the door, his master jumping onto Ayato's bed before quietly lying upside down while Ayato sat on the floor
"Looks like Aunt Kurono and your family sure got along well." Ayato spoke, sweat dripping at the lack of reply he was getting from Rias before he continued
"This meeting is…I feel it is good. Kurono also seems to be enjoying it. Your father and the others as well…...there's also the point that they were too upbeat but…"
"…...I know. I am happy too that my father and Kurono-san were talking happily."
"Hey, Ayato"
"Yes."
"Are you happy to have met me?" Rias asked, surprising Ayato as she continued before he could reply "I am happy to have met Yukio. A life without you is impossible. Think of it as an honour. You hold a lot of space in my heart, you know?"
"It's an honour! I am also happy to have met you, Rias-sama…my Okaa-san Otou-san and Onee-san would've loved to meet you as well" Rias smiled as she raised her head in surprise at Ayato barely mentioning his parents & older sister before as he stood up and continued
"I mean…, Otou-san would've joked about when the grandkids were coming ever since you moved in and would've pushed me to be my best for you & Okaa-san and Onee-san wants to see you when they wakes up from their coma``
''I would've loved to meet them…" Rias spoke softly, moving to stand before him as Ayato rubbed his eyes from unshed tears before being surprised at Rias' arms around his neck before her lips covered his as she kissed him.
A few moments passed before he felt Rias' tongue tasting his lips before entering his mouth and entwining with his own.
Ayato was soon pulled back by his neck, and the kiss that he felt would go deeper had ended, a thread of saliva between his and Rias' mouth, a look of regret on her face
"…Uh'' Asia grumbled teary eyed, having been the one to end the kiss prematurely.
"Hey Asia. Don't interrupt me when I am being affectionate with Yukio. Even though he seemed to be enjoying his long awaited deep kiss that he was desiring… It's quite difficult to create opportunities, you know?" Rias spoke annoyed, Yukio blushing embarrassed as Asia replied
"…Just... Buchou-san is unfair." "The early bird gets the worm. I learned it in my battle against Akeno." Rias retorted before Grayfia intervened "
You two, fighting isn't good. I think especially in front of Ayato-sama, it's unwise." She separates the Rias and Asia, who are glaring at each other, Grayfia then calming them down.
"That's true, fighting isn't good." Sirzechs spoke as he entered Ayato's room, Ayato wondering if the meeting downstairs had finished as Sirzechs continued
"I slipped out a bit. There's something that I need to talk about again. Rias, it's the continuation of the talk from daytime. Let's talk about the other Bishop." …
