Barbatos: 

41. Kisses shared under an umbrella.

You were lucky that Barbatos had seen you leaving.

You had been in such a massive rush that morning, as you had some duties to perform before school actually started, that you had rushed out without hearing about the weather. Barbatos could see that you were rather disheveled as you went about the rest of your day and that you hadn’t prepared for the rain you were now facing, staring out the front doors as if it was acid coming from the sky and not just water. You looked like you were ready to tempt fate and just deal with getting soaked but Barbatos reached out to place a hand on your shoulder, having previously gotten permission from Diavolo to attend to a ‘personal matter’ for a short while.

“I could walk you home if you’d like.” Barbatos held up his umbrella for you to see though it takes a moment or two for you to process what he’s offering you. Walking home in the rain together? Hadn’t you just seen that in the romance anime Levi had shown you a few days ago? Your heart is beating rapidly in your chest as you try not to think too deeply about it.

“But you’re probably so busy I couldn’t possibly…!” Wasn’t this also a line the main protagonist had uttered to her crush, a demon who she had every much wanted to walk her home? You can feel your face heating up at the concept of a long romantic walk with Barbatos while at the same time knowing nothing would come of it, not when he had far more important things to do with his life.

While you’re thinking of this Barbatos is thinking about you, about how he might be able to help make your life a bit easier or what kind of snack he might send your way tonight to make your day not as terrible. The exhaustion you felt had been rolling off of you in waves that nearly knocked him down as he passed you by and by nature, and due to truly caring about you, he had wanted to do something about it. He didn’t know if he was a problem-solver per se but he liked to do all that he could for you when the opportunity was presented. It was a peculiar feeling but not entirely unpleasant.

He’s pleased when you finally cave and accept his offer.

“I really don’t know how to thank you for this, I just… really appreciate it after today.” The walk had mostly been peaceful and silent but as you finally approached your front door you found the courage to speak. When you turned to face Barbatos, you find he’s far closer than he was when you were walking, so close in fact that you stumble into as you try to move your feet to back away.  

Barbatos is surprised when your lips brushed against his and he was almost positive it was a happy accident, an accident because it was clearly not what you had intended to do but a happy one as you didn’t immediately pull away from him. He savors your touch for a few seconds more before pulling away, serene smile gracing his features as he bid you farewell and watched as you practically kicked the door down in your rush to get inside. On the other side of the door you’re a complete mess, unable to believe what had just transpired between you and Barbatos while he was fondly touching his lips, enjoying the fact that a day that had started off negatively ended with such a big positive.
