#20202

Rolling over out of bed, you had started your daily morning ritual. Still slightly trying to get used to having to wake up in the morning with no sunlight from the constant moon hanging in the Devildom skies. The noise of a couple demon brothers was the sound that aroused you from sleep. As usual they were being rowdy, there was never a dull moment in the House of Lamentation. Usually there was a seat open next to Mammon but then you noticed there was an empty seat next to Levi for once. As you walked closer to the table you noticed Levi waving toward you to come over. “You can sit here if you want, although I won’t really care if you do or don’t.” He said while glancing to the side. Deciding to sit next to Levi who looked happy to see that you chose to sit next to him. “Be grateful for this opportunity to sit next to...mwah, I usually don’t let normies sit near me.” He said while smiling slightly. “Oh? And what makes MC any different?” Asked Lucifer teasingly. “Yea If MC iS SuCh A NoRmIe?” Mammon asked mockingly, with a slight crack in his voice. “Shut- Shut up! At least I’m not poor!” Levi replied glaring at him. “There was an empty seat and I thought it’d be a once and a lifetime offer for MC to sit next to the one and only, Leviathan! The greatest gamer on the Interwebs!” Said Levi. “Hmmm….That’s all there is to it?” Questioned Lucifer obviously trying to tease him. “Of course!” He said, not sounding too sure of himself. And in true 'saved by the Bell fashion' everyone's phone either buzzed or dinged, except Satan and Asmodeus'. Looking down at your DDD you saw a text message from the RAD newspaper club.

For one day, and one day only, the human world decides to celebrate their affection towards each other on a holiday called 'Valentines day'! In support of our exchange students from said world, we shall be selling Poisoned dart frogs covered in chocolate, white chocolate covered tarantulas, Weasel snout charms, and moonlight grown Man eating Orchids! Make sure to stop by the main lobby and get your special Incubus or Succubus that delectable treat or tool to sacrifice humans!

A quick update: the man eating Orchids are actually made of plastic, so they will not be useful for human sacrifices!

 Everyone at the table turned their heads toward Asmodeus staring at him. “What? I know I’m beautiful and all but all these gazes are over stimulating~” He said innocently. “Asmodeus…..why do you think we’re staring at you?” Asked Lucifer giving a downcasted gaze. “Isn’t it obvious, because I’m the most beautiful thing you’ve laid your eyes upon~” he replied confidently. Lucifer looked fed up. “What he is trying to say is that you planned this, didn’t you Asmodeus?” Replied Satan. “Maybe~” Said Asmodeus while everyone continued to stare at him. “I thought it would be fun! Think about it, a whole day dedicated to me, Basically~ I am the avatar of lust after all~” Levi face palmed while the rest of the brothers looked unamused. 

Everyone all went back to eating breakfast in moderate silence apart from the occasional comment or two and the clinking of silverware. After that it was off to school. That in itself wasn't anything out of the ordinary. No one seemed all too happy about the Valentine's day "merchandise". You even saw a slouching Asmodeus dragging himself through the halls, probably disappointed over the fact he wasn't getting any food or flowers. You felt kind of bad for him but couldn’t do anything about it anyways. As you walked through the halls on your way to class one of the items in the Valentine’s cart caught your eye. It was the man eating orchid and the chocolate poison dart frogs that was mentioned in the school notification from earlier. You thought back to the kindness Levi showed you this morning and were considering repaying the favor. He was picked on quite often from his brothers after all….maybe this would cheer him up? You decided to purchase the two items and made your way to class. It excited you to think about what reaction he would have towards the gifts. As you entered the classroom you saw Mammon already sitting in his seat behind you. Levi still wasn’t there yet, lucky for you as you wanted it to be a surprise. You took your seat and Mammon began bombarding you with questions. “Who’d ya’ get that for?” He asked. “Lemme guess, you wanna repay the great Mammon for all the kindness I’ve shown you? Well in that case I’ll gladly take it!” He said while smiling. “Um...sorry but it’s for Levi.” You replied trying not to sound rude. His mood immediately dropped and became gloomy. “Oh I see….” He said looking disappointed while looking down. “I’ll make it up to you later and buy you that limited edition keychain you wanted.” You said trying to cheer him up. “If you think that’s gonna work…well ok fine.” He replied while trying to hide his smile. You saw Levi enter the classroom and beamed in excitement. His gaze was cast down and he looked upset as usual. Probably didn’t want to be at school, I don’t blame him. As soon as he took his seat beside MC he looked at the gifts on the desk. “What’s all this for?!” He asked in curiosity. “For you!” You said while handing him both items. “Woooah seriously?! You're the best!!!” He said while smiling at you with a slight blush. His mood immediately improved. “I wanted to return the favor this morning, and cheer you up as well. so…” You replied while smiling at him. “For what? Oh! Letting you sit next to me! That was nothin’! You even got me the man eating orchids, seriously so cool!!! I would share with you but….seeing as the frog is poisonous and all, you’d probably die LoL!” He blabbered on excitedly while his eyes lit up. “What’s going on in here~?” Questioned Asmodeus while entering the classroom. “Oooo Levi has a secret admirer? Who is it, tell me, tell me, tell me!” He said excitedly. “It’s nothin like that.” Replied Levi. “MC just wanted to return the favor from earlier this morning and cheer up Levi.” Said Mammon. “Hmmm, it doesn’t look like that to me~” Replied Asmodeus. “What do you mean?” you had asked. “Oh poor, innocent MC, there’s so much you don’t know. But don’t worry, allow the expert Asmo-chan to help you~” He replied while pulling something from behind his back. Uh oh...not good. The next moment you found yourself handcuffed to Levi. “Hey Asmo, what the hell is this…what do you think you're doing???”  Asked Levi angrily. “I’m just helping~” He replied while smiling innocently. “This is a joke right?”You hollered. The bell rang indicating class had begun. “Oops gotta sit down, have fun~” said Asmodeus waving before sitting in his chair. How would the two of you deal with class handcuffed like this? 

         Throughout the entire class lesson it was getting increasingly difficult to write and concentrate. It made it even harder for you since Asmodeus had handcuffed your dominant hand. Turns out Levi was ambidextrous. Probably due to all the games he played, or something. Thankfully the teacher eventually noticed, and after embarrassing the two of you in front of everyone in class, had asked Asmodeus to unlock the cuffs…

“Uh…”

That statement in itself made it obvious that the two of you were gonna be stuck together until he found a key to unlock the handcuffs...

The rest of the school day passed fairly quickly with no other encounters from Asmodeus luckily… Thankfully. Although Levi looked quite embarrassed after what happened, blushing the whole time which you thought was cute. After finding the right rhythm to swing your connected (and now sweaty) hands too whilst walking, you managed to make it back to the House of Lamentation. From there on everyone went in their rooms, or in Beelzebub case, to the fridge. You and Levi hunted down Asmo demanding him to free the both of you. Eventually he had pulled out a spare set of cuffs, and thankfully all the keys where the same, and you two were set free. On your way upstairs to your room, you stopped when you heard Levi call out for you. “Hey um….MC can you meet me at the observatory later? You better be there ok?! I mean it...it’s not like I’m asking to spend time with you or anything. Whatever, just be there ok!” He said looking flustered. He walked away while blushing, shutting his door quickly behind him. So you passed time in your room doing your homework like the good student you were, didn’t want to disappoint ‘LoRd DiAvOlO’ now did we? Time passed and it soon became night time. A little bit later on, You got up to head to the observatory like Levi asked wondering why he asked to meet there. You made your way into the observatory seeing Levi already there looking like he was waiting for you. “You came! Ahem….I mean it’s not like I was waiting for you or anything.” He said while looking away from you. “So...why did you wanna meet up here?” You asked out of curiosity, walking over to where he was. “Listen, I don’t tell normies this so you better appreciate it! Thanks for the gifts earlier, it was nice of you….” He mumbled the last part covering his face to try and hide his blush. “Also…..I think you're pretty cool…..so...so...will you be my Valentine?” He asked hesitantly while handing you an orange rose. “Wow, how’d you get this, I thought they didn’t grow here!” You asked in amazement. “You like it?! Well you better be grateful because I looked everywhere for one of these.” He said. “Thank you, it’s beautiful.” You said, expressing your gratitude. “And of course I will!” you replied while smiling at Levi engulfing him in a hug. “Hey what do you think you’re- fine only this once is ok, I guess.” He said while hugging you back. “I also have one more gift for you MC.” Levi said while looking at you. “Hm what is it?” MC asked. Giving MC a peck on the cheek Levi quickly turned away in embarrassment. “There….it’s not like I like you or anything! I just think you are better than normies and slightly better than Ruri-chan.” Levi said while his face went red. “But- But Levi.” You stated flirtatiously “-Tsunderes are out of style” You winked at him and walked away, hearing him call after you.
