I Scored Myself A Mate

"Mark, please. it's obvious that every time you go into the bath you're crying." Asmodeus said as he watched his red haired boyfriend step out the bath. He had his lower part wrapped with along white towel while he dried his hair. Small droplets of water landed everywhere, one of them getting right into Asmodeus' yellow eye. The demons hissed and wiped his face, blinking a few times. "Wet dog." he whispered. 

"I heard you" Mark said between gritted teeth. 

"Oh, so you heard that while I was whispering but my obvious statement about you crying in secret simply passed by you." The demon said, crossing his legs while he sat on the soft bed. They had changed rooms. Mark had decided it was about time he lived together with Asmodeus and he was given a much bigger room now. The bed in particular was huge. He could lay like a starfish on it and still there would be much space for the demon to lay down comfortably next to him. It was also surrounded by dark red silk curtains which Mark loved because they gave off a very mystical magical vibe. The bathroom was also enormous with a bath covered in gold and lion legs like the ones he used to see in movies. So what if he cried in the bathtub? In a bathroom like that the mood was just right for him to vent. His best friend was missing after all, the only thing that was missing was a glass of wine and the mood would be perfect. 

"I choose to vent in my own way." Mark commented as he dropped his towel to the ground and headed towards the closet. He opened it wide, and searched through his clothes while Asmodeus was scanning his naked body with hungry eyes. 

"Can I vent my own way too?" He whispered to Mark as he approached him and hugged him from the back. 

"No." the redhead said strictly and and removed himself from his lewd grip. "We won't be doing anything until Allias is found." he announced as he grabbed a shirt. It was colored light mint, with wide sleeves and golden strings on the front, helping to adjust how open the shirt would be. He wore a pair of brown pants after his underwear in a hurry, deciding it would be best for him not to tempt his demon any longer. 

"That is quite torturous." Asmodeus commented and Mark gifted him a cheeky smile as he waltzed towards his nightstand. He opened the first drawer and grabbed a piece of paper and a pen from inside of it. He still had this pen with him, from that hotel they had stayed in a while back. It was a deep purple color while the name of the hotel was carved with golden letters on the side. He had kind of snooped it from the reception while they were there. Now he uses it to write his monthly letters to his family. Yes, that was right, he still contacted his family,once every month. 

"Scoop over a bit." Mark said and the demon moved to the side, leaving the space that was close to the nightstand empty for him to sit. The red haired man started writing, and after a while he was done with a proud smile as he folded the piece of paper and dropped it on an envelope. 

"Do your parents still think you're volunteering in Africa?" Asmodeus asked and the young man nodded. 

"I don't really know what else to tell them. I disappeared without a clue, they were worried sick and of course here there is no electricity for me to contact them."

"Have you ever thought of telling them the truth?" Asmodeus asked and his lover started laughing. 

"Yeah, hello mum and dad. Guess what, I am the last exorcist on this earth. Also guess what I am living in a fairy kingdom with my demon boyfriend. Oh, I am also gay now, even though that would be the last of their worries."

"It's an elf kingdom."

"They don't know the difference."

"That's racist." The demon said and bit his bottom lip hard as he tried not to laugh with the way Mark rolled his eyes at him. 

"You are ridiculous." The red haired said, smiling a bit.

"But you love it."

"Maybe I do. Do you think we will find Allias?" Mark asked, immediately his expression turning serious. "You might not know but he...he is very important to me. He is my best friend and he has saved me a lot of times. He is the reason I got to find you again. I don't think I could stand it if he dies, Asmodeus." the man said. 

"We will find him. I promise." The demon told him, giving him a comforting hug. He ruffled his wet hair, making him smile before he gently kissed his forehead. "I will do everything in my power to make you happy. If you being happy means finding Allias I will do it." 

"Do you even care about other people?" Mark asked, his words coming out muffled since he was buried in Asmodeus' chest, enjoying the warmth of his body. 

"No, not really."

"Oh.Do you have any friends?"

"I have my legion back home. I wanted to visit them actually but well…"

"Shit happened."

"Exactly." 

"Asmodeus?"

"Hmm"

"Please help me find Allias."

"I would even if you didn't ask me to." 

Asmodeus could be the most horrible person on earth, he could start famines and lead wars. He was the one that didn't really care about earth, its people or what happened to it. All that until he met Mark. Suddenly he realised he had to protect it, keep everything in order because the man he loved was a part of it. No matter what mark asked, he would do it. Just so he will be able to see that smile in his face.. He didn't want to hear him cry in the bath any longer, he only wanted to hear his laughter.
