Here's the next one. In case you didn't read the latest chapter of my main story, Red Dragon Of Golden Light, I have a little announcement. Sh*ts been getting pretty bad in life so a lot things have been taking my time away. So, both of my stories may or may not experience minor hiatuses. But don't worry about abandonment. A couple people were worried about me giving up this story. Don't. I will never give up either of my stories. No matter what happens I WILL come back to these stories. They will be finished. They won't be canceled or ended early. Though I don't know how long this story will be since it's a comedy. Either way, these stories will continue. Also, if you ever need a mental picture on this dumb Ise, I suggest you either relate him to the plain blank Saitama from OPM or the childish naive Gon Freecss from HxH 2011.
-Scene-
"Mmm~….."
SNORE
Within the Hyoudou Household, two young adolescents were both sleeping in one bed, closely snuggled together.
One of them, the beautiful female, was peacefully nuzzled into the chest of another person. The second person, a dopey looking boy, was snoring loudly with all of his limbs sprawled outward on the bed. Every time he took a breath, he snored loudly with a giant comical bubble coming out of his nose, increasing and decreasing in size every time he inhaled or exhaled.
The adolescents were "quietly" sleeping until-
BEEP BEEP BEEP
"Mmmm…."
The girl unpleasantly turned in her sleep, attempting to nuzzle further into the boy in hopes of eliminating the sound.
SNORE
The boy continued to snore.
BEEP BEEP BEEP
"Mmmm!..."
The girl began to toss and turn, struggling to stay fully asleep. Her grip on the boy became tighter and tighter. Soon enough her nails began cutting his skin.
SNORE
He continued to snore. Apparently he was a heavy sleeper. That must be the reason his mother comes to wake him up despite the alarm. The girl started getting very angry.
BEEP BEEP BEEP
SNORE
"Nnnnnn…"
BEEP BEEP BEEP
SNORE
"Nnnnn!..."
BEEP BEEP
SNORE
"NNNNNN!.."
Knock Knock
"Ise, Ray-chan, time to wake up you two~!"
Immediately after the knock was heard, the girl whipped up violently.
"NNNAAAAAH! SHUT UP!"
BBZZT!
And destroyed the alarm clock with her bare hands. She then stood on the bed and transformed into her S&M outfit, and in a bout of rage, spawned a whip that went along with her attire and whipped the boy straight on his face.
"WAKE UP!"
Whip!
"OW!"
"Ise?!"
Dakun!
The door slammed open.
"Ah."
After Issei was whipped by Raynare he immediately woke up and held onto his red cheek. His shriek of pain prompted his mother to check on him which only led everyone to freeze after his mother witnessing a scene of her son being whipped by his S&M girlfriend with scratches on his bare fine chest early in the morning. There was also an ensemble of condoms laying on Issei's desk.
…..
…
…..
"...E…..Excuse me….."
His mother slowly exited the room and shut the door.
Dakun
…
…
…
…
"Ah."
Issei pointed at Raynare.
"I told you Mama doesn't like it when you stand on the bed."
…
|Breakfast|
Clang….Ding….
…
Another quiet breakfast with only the sound of utensils being used. Issei's Mother and girlfriend were eating silently, meanwhile Issei's father was sitting with his hands intertwined and darkness covering his face aside from his glasses which were shining. Issei himself, was stuffing his face casually.
"...Ise…..Honey….You…..you can stay home for today if you'd like…"
"Mmm? Mhy muud i vo vhat (Why would I do that)?"
"...Well….you know…..to spend some time with your gi- with Raynare-chan…"
"Mmm? Gulp!...But I already spent the whole night with her."
Ding!
Issei's mother dropped her utensils and froze. Raynare simply stopped moving altogether.
"Y…...Yes…...I suppose you did…"
Issei continued eating normally. Issei's mother awkwardly followed. Raynare and his father were just sitting still.
…..
"Oh, I gotta get to school."
Rrrr!
Issei stood up and picked up his food to take with him and eat on the way. His mother finally snapped out of it and spoke out to him.
"Eh? Ise, you still have over an hour, what's the rush? You even had the alarm set earlier."
"Mm Yeah, I have a club that needs to meet with me this morning before school so I have to go now to be early."
Raynare snapped out of her stupor as well. Was it the Devils? She stood up.
"You shouldn't go."
"Mm? Why Not?"
"You know why."
"But it would be rude to not go. What will they think?"
"Even so….At least…..Are you going to tell them about me?"
"Hm? They already know."
Raynare's face held an expression of worry.
"...If….if they get here….I won't be able to do anything...so your family-"
"Ah, they won't do anything like that."
"How do you know?"
"Because I won't let them."
Raynare looked at Issei. He just had his normal blank expression on.
"So then what about me?...They'll have me follow somewhere and-"
"You'll be okay too."
"Eh? How would you know?"
"Because I'll protect you."
"Wha-?!"
Issei's comment took Rayare aback. She whipped her head at Issei and stared him down. She was initially trying to read him, but in the end she ended up being drawn into his gaze. He still retained the boring blank childish expression that looked like he was curious all the time. Though, somehow, the more she looked into his eyes….the more she felt reassured. As if his warm yellow eyes and soft words together were a calming agent. Almost like he was intentionally trying to ease her nerves.
…..
This was the longest they had ever maintained eye contact. Raynare's thoughts had practically grinded to a halt as she simply fell into Issei's gaze…..
…..
'Why would Raynare face me in a staring contest if she keeps blinking?'
Unfortunately, Issei's stupidity knows no bounds.
"...You really should stay Ise."
"Ah! No, sorry Mama. I'm going."
Issei realized and started to walk out of the house with his food.
Dakun!
…
"Sweety he took the plate with hi-"
Rrrr!
Dakun!
Issei's father had already followed suit. Luckily for him since Issei had food he wasn't going to be running anywhere.
"Son."
"Ah, Pops. Is it the plate? I just realized-."
Grip
Issei's father grabbed ahold of his shoulders.
"...My son, will you protect that girl no matter what?"
"Mm? Yeah, I said that already."
"...Do you believe she is the one?"
"The one what?"
"The one and only."
"Well Yeah, there's many Fallen Angels but there's only one Raynare."
"...Do you still have the protection?"
"Yeah I have my armor."
Issei's father nodded at him and turned away.
"Ah, Pops, what about the plate?"
His father merely lifted his hand to stop him and shook his head. Then he turned and walked into the house.
Dakun
"Hm."
Issei shrugged and walked to school while eating his breakfast.
-Kuoh Academy-
Issei arrived outside of the Occult Research Club door and knocked.
Knock knock
After a few seconds of silence.
"Come in."
Rias called him from within and he opened the door. The day before they had arranged to meet up after school, but then Issei received a message from Rias on his phone about having him come before school instead. He doesn't know how she got his number but he shrugged it off because they're Devils. He also said that he doesn't plan on missing any classes so if the bell rings he's leaving. To which she did not respond.
Dakun
He entered the room casually and noticed something.
"Ah."
Literally everybody was here.
"Good morning Ise. You're right on time."
Rias greeted him from her desk. Issei looked around. All the Devils were here. All of them. Rias' people and more. If he remembered correctly, the short black haired girl was from the student council. She was the president for 2 years? He doesn't know but he definitely helped her last year with some Festival events when they were understaffed. So then that means all the other Devils are her team? They all have the student council bands on their sleeves. Soon enough, Issei felt something coming.
Shiin!
A bright magic circle shined red throughout the clubroom. When the light died down, two people emerged. One was a beautiful mature woman with Silver hair and a French Maids uniform on. The other, was a handsome man with Crimson hair just as long and red as Rias. They both were powerful and screamed elegance. The moment they stepped out everyone in the room kneeled.
"Welcome, Onii-sama."
"Good morning Rias, everyone. It's nice to see you."
The man motioned everyone to rise with a kind smile on his face. A lavish chair was prepared for him to sit on from in front of the desk. Meanwhile another chair was placed across the table from the lavish one. The man sat down in the chair with his hands in his lap and greeted Issei.
"I assume you are Hyoudou Issei correct?"
"Yeah."
"Nice to meet you. I am the Maou Sirzechs Lucifer. One of the Four Satan's. Devil King of the Underworld. And Older Brother of Rias Gremory."
…
The room fell silent. Issei seemed like he was thinking seriously about something…..
"Ah!"
He snapped his fingers. Then he pointed straight at Sirzechs. One of the boys on the Councils side flinched but his President placed a hand on his shoulder to ease him.
…..
"ONI-Sama."
…..
….
…..
Onii = Older Brother
Oni = Demon
They are pronounced exactly the same…..
…
…
…..
"Hahahahahahahahaha! You are correct, Hyoudou Ise-kun."
Sirzechs light heartedly laughed at Issei's joke.
….
...
"JOKE"
…..
"Please, have a seat."
Sirzechs motioned for Issei to sit in the chair across the table. Issei sat down in it and placed his plate in his lap. Sirzechs raised an interested brow.
"May I ask, why do you carry a plate with you?"
"Ah, I ate breakfast on the way here."
"Oh, is that so? Let me apologize for that. I did not know you felt so pressured to rush yourself. If I had known that I would've asked Rias to prepare some food."
"Wait….You mean there's no food here?"
Sirzechs tilted his head to Issei's question.
"No, I do not believe so."
"What?! No way! What kind of interrogation is this?!"
"Interrogation?"
"Yeah! What the hell kinda interrogation doesn't have food?!"
"Oh, All of them?"
"Where the Hell do you live?!"
"The Underworld."
"The Underworld sucks!"
"Hahahahaaha!"
Sirzechs couldn't help but laugh at what was happening. After dealing with so many different types of people he had never dealt with one like this. He's being completely honest. Yet he says such ridiculous things. Is this is the new Sekiryuutei?
"Ahehe- Ahem. Excuse me."
Sirzechs was attempting to recover from his laughing fit while Issei just sat there looking at him like he was the weirdo. Everyone else in the room was dumbstruck or just on edge. Was it an act? Is he just playing the fool? The ORC members were more on guard than anything. He had to be dangerous. The most conflicted of all, was Sona Sitri. She was becoming unbelievably confused and frustrated. She couldn't read him. Not one bit. Not a single thing he said seemed genuine yet it sounded like he meant it. He couldn't have been trying to fool them could he? His blank expression was an absolute poker face. Not to mention, his words were bizzare and seemed illogical. It doesn't make sense…..
Of course, she was just overcalculating things. In the end, Issei was so stupid that whenever he wasn't saying something, his head was completely empty.
"Now, Hyoudou Issei."
"Ise is fine."
"Very well, Ise-kun."
Sirzechs finally put on his serious expression.
"According to my sister…..You are the Sekiryuutei."
Sirzechs stared Issei down with an intimidating gaze. Surely, anyone who wasn't a fool would know just how far above this monster was from others.
"Yeah." Casual response
…..
Issei is a fool.
….
"I see….I have also been informed that you have allied yourself….with the Fallen Angels?"
"Not really."
"Hmm? Was my information incorrect?"
"Yeah it's only one."
"One?"
"Yeah, only Raynare. I don't know any other ones."
"Only one? You mean to tell me you are only allied with one Fallen Angel?"
"Yeah, she's my only Fallen Angel friend. I don't meet any others."
"This is the only Fallen you've encountered before?"
"No, I met one a long time ago, but we weren't friends."
Sirzechs took note of Issei's words.
"You were attacked."
"Yeah I think so."
"Hmm….interesting….how exactly did you ally yourself with only one Fallen? Surely, she must have some other connections. If you want me to be completely honest with you, I believe her motive is to recruit you to their side."
"Doesn't seem like it. She doesn't have any friends."
"Are you sure about that?"
"Well, not really. She doesn't ever leave my house."
Sirzechs perked his head up slightly. He came on short notice so he doesn't know of a lot that Rias does.
"Your home?...You are housing her?"
"Yeah. She sleeps with me and everything."
"..If I am correct...You are human, with a human family..."
"Yeah, my parents are at the house with her."
"..."
Sirzechs felt as if he was finally getting an idea of the situation.
'She's selling herself to him. He's most likely to join the side that his friend or more is allied with….since I don't see any signs of manipulation magic…..she's fooling him and earning his trust…...We'll have to do some negotiating.'
:Is what Sirzechs thought to himself.
"I see...Do you trust her?"
"Yeah, why not? She's my friend."
"Is that so? So in that case, does that mean you don't consider yourself in alliance with the Fallen?"
"Yeah, I don't know any of 'em. Except for Raynare."
"Well…..In that case, what exactly is she doing here, that friend of yours?"
"Oh, I don't know. When I first met her she asked me out on a date. But I said no. Then we started hanging out. Then she started staying in my house."
"A strange turn of events."
"Yeah."
Sirzechs sat there trying to read Issei's blank expression. Even with all the people he has worked with, he still can't get a bead on him. He truly is unreadable. Then he had a thought.
"This Fallen-"
"Raynare."
"...Raynare."
Issei interrupted Sirzechs with no regard for the tension.
"This Raynare-. She approached You?"
"Yeah."
"Had you ever seen her before then?"
"Nope."
'I see….So her job was indeed to recruit him..'
"Here is my main question….Do you plan to ally yourself with the Fallen Angels in the coming future?"
"No."
Issei said it quick and clearly. It felt like the tension in the room decreased by an insane amount. Though, Issei never felt any of it.
"I see….that's good to hear-"
"I don't plan on becoming allies with any of you."
[!]
CHILLS
Just like that the tension in the room returned, worse. The weaker Devils felt chills run up and down their backs with Issei's statement. Sirzechs was completely serious now, with an almost dark expression on his face.
"...What is it exactly that you mean by that, Sekiryuutei?…."
Sirzechs lost his casual tone and was speaking firmly with his hands resting on his knees, in front of his face. An attitude that suggested dominance.
"Just what I said. I can't be allies with any of you."
The atmosphere became heavier.
"...And Why exactly is that?..."
…
…
…
"Cuz if I do that everybody else will get mad at me."
….
..
Issei said that with a tone that sounded like a child who was avoiding being reprimanded by his parents….
…
"...Pardon?..."
"Gesundheit."
"What?"
"What?"
…..
..
"No….what I meant was, what do you mean by 'they'll get mad at you'?"
"Well, if I go with the Fallen, you guys will get mad at me. If I go with you, the Angels will get mad at me. If I go with the Angels, the Fallen will get mad at me. Everybody else will be mad. So I can't pick a side."
"...Yes….I suppose that is true...but not choosing a side at this point...something like that is impossible. Every side will either mark you a target or a potential recruit and you will constantly be sought after. Your family won't be safe."
"I can protect them."
"I'm not sure you can."
"Who will they send?"
"Most likely, their best."
"Their leaders?"
"Likely to recruit, but to exterminate you, no. But some of their best fighters."
"Oh then I'll be fine."
"How can you be so sure?"
"I fought a lot of strong guys before. A pretty strong Fallen too, he said he was a leader."
-!-
"A leader?!...Did you happen to get his name?"
"Yeah, Barakiel or Barakyat or something."
-!-
Everyone in the room went stiff. The main one being certain black haired girl who clenched her fists tightly. Sirzechs kept his calm demeanor along with Grayfia, but now he was more alert.
"No wait, that Barakyat dude was the monster with the swords in his arms."
"Hyoudou Issei."
Sirzechs took Issei's attention, who was thinking back, and brought it to him.
"Why was it that you fought this leader?"
Issei shrugged.
"Just because."
"...You happened to encounter him...or did you go looking for him?"
"Nah, I just ran into him."
"How did it happen?"
"Well, I thought he was strong so I wanted to spar with him. He thought I was an enemy so it worked out. But I got completely beat up. In the end, I told him I wasn't his enemy and we stopped fighting. Turns out he was really sad at the time cuz he lost his family or something. He was a really sad guy. Felt bad for him."
The black haired girl in the corner visibly flinched and held her head down. Her red headed best friend next to her placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder.
"But y'know he gave me this really nasty gash!"
Issei said that as he lifted his shirt and revealed his perfectly sculpted body. The largest scar that ran up the right side of his chest and touched the bottom of his chin was unbelievably apparent compared to all the other scars on his body. It looked like an old singe or serious burn mark. It was obvious was it was caused by: Holy Light. More than that, a few more calculative people in the room including Sirzechs began contemplating Issei's words a bit further until they stumbled upon something.
"Hold on Ise-kun….You went up against that Fallen Angel leader over 7 years ago?..."
"Yeah, I was like 9 years old at the time."
"!...You fought a Cadre-Class Fallen Angel at the age of 9? With what?"
"With My Balance Breaker."
"You unlocked Balance Breaker at the age of 9?!..."
"Huh? No. I unlocked it when I was 8."
"...So you unlocked the Boosted Gear's Balance Breaker at the age of 8 as a human boy?..."
"Yeah, obviously. I'm human."
"...I find that quite unbelievable to be honest with you."
Issei shrugged.
"I also fought a guy named Susanoo who was way stronger, but that was when I was like 14 or 15. And he kicked my ass."
"!...Susanoo…..You…."
"Hey...wait a minute…"
Issei suddenly became skeptical. He pointed at Sirzechs.
"How did you know how old I was when I fought that Barakiel dude?"
-!-
Sirzechs began thinking worriedly.
'That's right. I said it without thinking. I was too focused on his age rather than why I knew it.'
"Hmm...Oi….does that mean?..."
Issei's finger slowly pointed itself towards Rias general direction, where Akeno Himejima was standing at. The two girls immediately flinched. Sirzechs became suspicious.
'Could it be-?! Did he put all the pieces together? Did Barakiel say it himself? Or was it her aura? Her smell? I don't know the extent of his abilities but could it be?'
…..
…
"You're a stalker."
…..
…
The woman Issei was pointing at, was Koneko.
…..
…
…
"..."
Sirzechs, or more accurately, everyone had no words.
….
After a few more seconds of silence, Sirzechs stood up.
"Ise-kun, I don't suppose we could ask you to join our side then?"
"Nah. I'd rather be friends with everyone. If not, no one. But I'm not gonna hurt anyone who doesn't hurt me. And I'll help people who are in trouble."
"Fufufufu. I see. Very well then."
Sirzechs walked to his sister Rias, in the corner of the room.
"Well that's all I have to say then. I assume you can handle the rest then?"
"Eh? A-Ah, yes?"
Sirzechs began to walk away to another side of the room, his maid followed.
"Well then, Ise-kun, I bid you farewell. Hopefully we can meet under better circumstances next time. Maybe a dinner even. At the least there will be food then."
"Hell yeah!"
"Hahahaha! I'll be looking forward to it then. Goodbye."
Shiin!
Sirzechs magic circle shined and removed them from the room. Leaving only the silent students behind.
-.
Shiin!
"...Sirzechs-sama…..you do not believe that the boy will become a threat to your sister's safety?"
The French Maid known as Grayfia asked Sirzechs once they arrived in a certain room in the underworld.
"Don't worry Grayfia. That boy is surely 'dangerous'. But that type of person...he will never become a [threat]. Not to us, at least."
"...Is...that so?..."
-.
…
It was still silent in the clubroom.
…..
"Well, I'm gonna get going now. School is gonna start in a half hour and I might as well help out the Kendo club with their morning set up or something."
Issei stood from his chair and picked his bag, placed the plate inside, and began to walk towards the door.
"W-Wait!"
Rias called out to him. He stopped.
"What?"
"...Would you consider joining the Occult Research Club?.."
"For What?"
"It's a meeting place we use to discuss Devil activities...at the very least if you're not an ally of the Devils, then can we consider you an ally of this territory?"
"Yeah, sure."
"Then it would be best for you to join this club."
This time it was the black haired girl, Sona Sitri who spoke. However, Issei scratched the back of his neck.
"Mmm….I don't know about that. I help clubs out every now and then. So there are times before and After School when I'm busy."
Issei said that unsure to himself but Rias responded positively.
"Well...that's alright. I'm sure you're not busy everyday, so you can just come in then. Plus, you can use it as an excuse to skip classes."
Issei turned to her fully and had a stern look on his face.
"Skipping class is bad."
He looked like a child saying no-no.
"Ah, that's alright. You don't have to skip class. I was just saying. So what do you think? Will you join? It'll give you something to do when you're bored. Weekdays and weekends."
"Do you have games?"
"Hmm….Well we do have a couple. If we don't we can certainly get some."
"What about food?"
"Yes."
"Alright then."
"Great! In that case, come whenever you aren't busy. And message me when you want to come off school days."
"Okay."
Issei turned back and walked to the door.
"Oh and one more thing."
He turned back with the door open.
"Bring that Fallen Angel here when you can….I would like to simply speak with her."
He nodded and exited the room.
Dakun
….
"Akeno, remind me to get a fridge and an extra pantry for the commodities room next door….and a TV for this room if need be."
"Yes, Buchou…..What shall we do about that Fallen?"
"For now? Nothing. We'll let Ise bring her to us and evaluate her. If her presence here is of no consequence then we leave her be with him. If not….we'll see….for now I will trust Onii-sa-...Sirzechs-sama's judgement…."
"Ara, Ufufufu….why not call him ONI-Sama, Buchou?"
"..."
-DxD-
(9 hours later - Hyoudou Household)
Issei was back in his house from doing some club activities after school. Issei just finished dinner and was washing dishes next to Raynare while his parents rested on the couch. Raynare suggested that her and Issei would wash them as thanks. Though, she had an ulterior motive. She began to speak quietly to Issei.
"What did the Devils say?"
"Hmm? Oh, they just gave me a dumb "interrogation". Why kind of interrogation doesn't have food?!"
"Who cares about that? Didn't they ask you everything last time? What did they ask you this time?"
"Well, he asked me less. A lot about you though. And whether I'll join them or not."
"[He]?"
"Yeah, he was Rias-senpai's older brother. The Maou or something."
PKKK!
"Wha-?! What's wrong?! Raynare-chan, Ise?!"
"N-Nothing Okaa-sama(Mother)! We're fine! I just broke a plate! I'm sorry!"
"Ah, no it's okay! As long as you're alright!"
Raynare and Issei's mother communicated to each other from their respective positions loudly. Though, the kitchen is in view of the living room, the sink where they were washing dishes was a bit too much to the left of the stove to see. Raynare took a breath. But it was obvious that she was unbelievably nervous.
"...Issei….you mean to tell me that you met the Maou?…...Rias...as in Rias Gremory….High-Class Devil….younger sibling of the Maou Lucifer?…"
"Yeah, his name was Sirzechs."
"..."
Raynare felt too weak to stand. She fell to her knees, breathing heavily.
"...I'm…..going to die….I...am such a fool..."
She spoke in true fear and despair. Her body was shaking.
Soon enough-
Drip….drip…
Tears began to slowly fall down her face. She felt truly afraid. Truly alone.
"I…...don't want to die….."
Grip
She felt Issei's hands on her shoulders. Then-
Pomf
He embraced her.
"...Please don't cry…"
"...Eh?..."
"You aren't going to die….so please don't cry…"
"..W-What?...B-But...I…"
"I will protect you. I will always protect you. So please don't be scared. Please don't cry."
He spoke in a voice similar to a child. Like if he was a young boy trying to comfort his saddened mother.
"I…...I am a Fallen Angel….I am your enemy….I deceived you…...I tried to kill you….."
"But you didn't."
"But I planned it…..and…...I went against my orders….to kill you…..I am…"
"It's okay. I'm okay right now so it doesn't matter. I trust Raynare. Mama and Pops trust Raynare. Raynare is my family. So I will protect you always."
"..."
Raynare could only lay still in Issei's embrace as tears streamed down her face. She felt so calm. So secure. She felt…..wanted….
"I…..Sniff…."
Grip
She lifted her arms and embraced Issei wholeheartedly. When she did, she felt a filling in her chest. She felt whole.
…
They sat there in silence, embracing each other. She could smell his scent on his neck. His body was large and strong and eased her nerves. She could feel his calm heartbeat against her chest(breasts). She could hear his slow breathing on the back of her neck…..silence…..
…..
Until-
Tka!
The sound of a camera shutter. And whispering.
"You idiot I told you to record!"
"Ah, I didn't know which setting it was on!"
…..
Raynare slowly turned her head and saw Issei's parents peering from the corner with a camera. His mother with a deep blush and stars in her eyes. His father struggling with the camera in his hands.
….
Issei let go of Raynare and turned to see his parents.
"Ah, Pops. That's the wrong camera. That one only takes pictures. It doesn't record."
"Ah, damn! Is that so!"
Issei's father smacked the top of his forehead in frustration. Raynare could only sit there dumbfounded.
…..
…
Until it finally set in.
"Y-!...W-W-W-W-W-!"
She began stuttering violently with a fuming red face as she turned her head towards Issei.
"Hm?"
He only tilted his head innocently.
"...Aaaaahh…."
"Aaahh?"
"-WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"
Raynare immediately stood and ran past Issei's parents, up the stairs, and to Issei's room. Shutting and locking the door behind her.
Pom! Pom! Pom!
"You see?! Idiot, you made her run!"
Slap!
"Ow! It isn't my fault. You bought this camera!"
Dakun!
"Yes, but you could've at least turned off the flash!"
Tik!
"Yes, well, it was your idea! Next time you use the camera why don't ya?"
Issei's parents began to argue childishly while the sounds of Raynare running and locking herself in the room were in the background.
...
(40 minutes later)
Knock Knock
"Raynare. Can you let me in? I want to sleep too you know?"
Issei knocked on his door waiting for a response. He did not receive one.
"Sigh"
He gave up and sat down next to the door with his usual blank expression. Then the sound of the door.
Tik
Creak
The door unlocked and was left slightly ajar. Issei peered in before entering. He saw Raynare covering herself in the blanket. He closed the door behind him and approached the bed.
"Are you asleep?"
A stupid question to ask. But she nodded nonetheless.
"Okay."
Rather than laying in bed, Issei sat on the floor against the bed. He sat there in silence.
Tug
He felt a tugging at his shirt. He looked to his left shoulder and saw Raynare's hand reaching from under the covers pulling at his shirt.
"Ah."
He got up and slid into the covers on the bed, pulling them up to his neck.
…..
Rustle
The bulge in the covers slowly grew near him, until he could Raynare from under, laying on his chest.
"Night."
"...Mm…."
And with that, they fell asleep.
End
That's all for this one folks. Got a little serious for a couple seconds there, but as I said, this is a comedy. So most, if not all the serious moments, will end up just being funny. Hope you like it. Also some development between Issei and Raynare. Everyone kept telling me they loved the interrogation with Rias. REALLY? I honestly was NOT expecting that tbh. I wrote it without much thought. That's why I said this story is much easier to write. These moments just come to me so easily. I've always been more attached to comedy. Aside, did any of you catch that MK reference? ;P
P.S. concerning the Hiatus thing, in all honesty, don't expect hiatuses to be more than a few months long. IF they do happen. Just saying.
Read, Rate, Review, go crazy.
Stay frosty.
