(Demon Urata x Human Sakata)

~Mini series~

————————

Sakata stared at the teacher that was standing in front of the class and going over notes, the usual thing. The redhead let out a small sigh as he pressed his cheek against the palm of his hand, quietly tapping his pencil against the desk, just wanting the day to be over.

He glanced to the side to see the red eyed brunette filled with the same amount as energy as him; bored and tired.

He was pretty sure that Amatsuki was on the verge of falling asleep. Well, so was he, as he decided to stay up late, regretting his decision now.

Sakata sighed again, deciding to let his mind wander to whatever it wanted. He had stopped paying attention to the teacher and was now filled with thoughts about the short brunette.

Lately he's been thinking of him much more than before.

Sakata would occasionally drift into his thoughts, which always seemed to find ways to become about the male. Once he would realize he'd then blush in embarrassment.

It had been a few months since he had met the male. He was still trying to help the short brunette accomplish his goal, well help as much as he can.

The more wishes Sakata made, the quicker the old man will probably let Urata go free, in Urata's words at least.

Sakata had spent some days making wishes for the short brunette to fulfill, some were helpful but others were just pointless things. He could tell that the male was somewhat annoyed at those ones.

Sometimes they weren't even wishes and it was just the redhead pleading for the short brunette to do some things for him, things that anyone could do.

Sakata was always surprised whenever the short male seemed to comply, despite saying how stupid some of his wishes were. This made the redhead happy.

"Oi."

The redhead jumped at the sudden voice before realizing it was the short brunette. He still wasn't used to the male's sudden random appearances whenever they happened.

"I'm surprised you're here." Sakata whispered as Urata rolled his eyes.

"I got bored and figured I might as well see what you're up to."

"So you decided to be with me?" Sakata questioned the male, amusement slightly rising in his voice, "Instead of using this time to torment and tease people like you usually do?"

Urata pulled his cheek, "oi, you saying that makes it seem like I enjoy being around you. Maybe I'll just leave."

Sakata just whined as he pried the male's hand off his cheek. The redhead then gave the male a pleading look.

"Please stay~ I'm bored and don't want to be alone."

"You have Amatsuki."

"Do you think he's in the state to talk to me?" Sakata said as he gestured to the red eyed brunette that was now resting his head on his arms.

Urata sighed at the male's action, I'm not surprised.

"Fine then I'll stay, not like I have much of a choice." Urata said as he rested his elbow on the side of the redhead's desk, "but the moment I get either annoyed or bored then I'll leave you alone to suffer."

"How nice..." Sakata muttered as the short brunette rolled his eyes.

The two began their small talk, letting Sakata forget about his boredom. Though he tried his best not to look weird, not wanting others to think he was just talking to himself.

There was the usual teasing from the short brunette, with the redhead trying hard not to make an outburst of embarrassment.

Just as the redhead had found himself thinking more of the male, Urata noticed that he seemed to enjoy looking at the redhead. He'd have to scold himself to make him stop, feeling annoyed at the idea of having some sort of attraction to the male.

He'd always say to himself that it was probably because of his 'connection' to the redhead. It's just cause I'm his familiar, there isn't anything else to it. He's an idiot after all, there's nothing else.

The short brunette glanced at the redhead, only to see that he too was about to fall asleep like the red eyed brunette. He could see the redhead's eyes droop as he tried to stay awake.

Idiot.... Urata didn't realize that a smile had cracked through his nonchalant expression.

"Oi idiot, if you're tired why don't you just sleep?"

"Because Amatsuki then complains when we both don't know what to do because we weren't paying attention." Sakata whined as the male rolled his eyes.

"Then maybe you shouldn't have stayed up late."

"Not you too...I already had niichan scold me~"

"Just sleep now," Urata bluntly said, "I think your fishcake brother would rather you be awake and fine than understanding whatever you're learning."

"I'll get in trouble if I sleep," Sakata muttered, "at least Amatsuki can use his powers to help him but I just have to face the consequences."

Urata sighed before poking the redhead's cheek, a small chill ran through the redhead's spine and soon Sakata found himself resting his head on his desk as he closed his eyes.

Be grateful I'm willing to help you. Urata thought as he looked at the redhead's sleeping face. He could see some small strands of the male's hair fall on his face. The short brunette softly brushed them away, playfully pinching the male's cheek.

His cheeks always seem so soft and pudgy. Urata, again unaware of the way his eyes looked at the male in softness or how he slightly smiled at the redhead. He looks like a puppy like that, it's kinda cute.

"Eh? Urata being nice and sweet to Sakata? How cute~"

The short brunette gave the red eyed brunette, that was now awake, an annoyed glare which just made Amatsuki laugh.

"Oi, aren't you suppose to pay attention?"

"But it's boring~"

"If it's that boring then why are you even going here? You're a demon, remember?"

"I just wanted to experience school life," Amatsuki stated as he smiled, "plus I can hang out with Sakata and Mafu more and it fills the boredom of sitting around as a demon."

"Yet you still complain about the boredom." Urata sighed as the red eyed brunette waved his hand dismissively.

"Anyways, you've been sweeter to Sakata for a while, wonder why~"

"Amatsuki, shut up before they end up having to find another demon to replace you."

"You'd really hurt your friend?" Amatsuki said in a fake shocked voice as the short brunette rolled his eyes.

"But you really haven't noticed that you're being nicer to him?" Amatsuki asked the male, "Are you actually denser than Sakata or is it just you trying to protect your pride."

"Amatsuki."

The red eyed brunette could sense the threat coming from the male's voice and small smile on his face.

"Fine I'll stop teasing you," Amatsuki playfully laughed before giving the male a curious look, "though I've been wondering."

"What?"

"Sakata's trying to help you break free from your role as a familiar, basically your freedom to do whatever you want, even though he doesn't need to do it and can just let you stay as a familiar–"

"Oi."

"–but you haven't done anything to show your gratitude." Amatsuki said as the short brunette rose his eyebrow.

"What do you mean? I'm being nicer to him as you said."

"Sure you being nice to someone is an achievement anyone should be happy with," Amatsuki muttered, pretending not to notice the male's glare, "but I'm thinking you should do something for him~"

The red eyed brunette then just sheepishly rubbed his neck as he saw short brunette's blank unamused gaze. An idea then popped in his head.

"Hey I have an idea!"

"I'm already worried..." Urata stated as the red eyed brunette gave him a reassuring smile.

"Don't worry, it doesn't involve harming anyone."

"Cause that's totally reassuring to hear."

"How about you invite him to an amusement park?"

Urata gave him an unamused expression again, not really admiring the idea.

"There's no need for me to do that," the short brunette rested his cheek against his hand, "I don't need to do something pointless like that."

"Yet you still grant his pointless wishes and stuff like that," Amatsuki retorted as he gave the male an unamused look, "if you're worried about him thinking it's a date then I'll third wheel for you guys–"

"Oi! When did I ever say it was a date?" Urata exclaimed as the red eyed brunette rolled his eyes.

"You probably thought it~"

"Ama–"

"I can also invite Soraru and Mafu to ease your concerns." Amatsuki nonchalantly said, ignoring the male, "so you two don't have to be alone."

"We both know you'd just find an excuse to not go and drag the other two away with you."

"I hoped that you wouldn't figure it out."

Urata sighed as he crossed his arms, he glanced back at the sleeping redhead then at the red eyed brunette. He quietly groaned, knowing he's going to regret his response immediately, and shifted his eyes to the side in embarrassment.

"Fine, I'll listen to you, only because I know you'd find a way to make it happen even if I said no."

Amatsuki cheered in his mind as he smiled at the short brunette.

"Okay now you have a date!"

"Oi! Shut up!"

Amatsuki laughed, not caring about some of the strange looks he was receiving from his classmates. Maybe the both of them will realize something during their time together~

The red eyed brunette grinned proudly at his achievement in getting Urata to give in. And Mafu said that I'd be a terrible matchmaker, now he can let me help him with Soraru.

"Just know I'm going to punch you the moment I can." Urata bitterly said as the male stuck his tongue out childishly.

"You can do it now, but you still wouldn't do it~" Amatsuki said in a taunting tone, immediately regretting it as he saw that the short brunette seemed to be considering the idea, "w-wait! I-I'm joking!"

Urata chuckled, his teasing smirk made the red eyed brunette pout.

"How mean~ you wouldn't do that to Sakata though."

Amatsuki yelped as he felt a small smack on his head, sulking while Urata glared at him.

"But you'll thank me later~"

"I'll thank you once you're dead."

"Such kind words."

The red eyed brunette and short brunette continued their banter, playful on Amatsuki's side but threatening on Urata's.

Sakata finally woke up from his short nap, rubbing his eyes in confusion as to why he suddenly fell asleep before looking at the short brunette. Oh right, he told me to sleep. I guess he did something to make me.

The redhead could feel his heart flutter at the thought of the short brunette worrying about his health. He turned his head to hide the blush that covered his cheeks. Why am I thinking that?!?

"Sakata~ you woke up~"

The redhead looked back at the smiling red eyed brunette, noticing the short brunette seemed to be sulking.

"Yep," the redhead tilted his head, "can I ask why you look like you won some big prize while Urata looks like he's ready to kill you?"

"It's a secret~ and I think you'll like it," Amatsuki teasingly said, receiving another smack from the short brunette.

"Eh?"

"Okay I'll tell you–" the bell cut off the male, Amatsuki paused before grinning as he got up, "actually, it's better for Urata to tell you~ bye guys."

The red eyed brunette then left the classroom, leaving a confused redhead and very annoyed short brunette who continued to glare at the male as he left.

Sakata shifted his gaze to the short brunette, his confused expression still there as he awaited a response, to which Urata just sighed as he pulled the male's cheek.

"You better not be busy tomorrow and be thankful for this." Urata muttered, using his free hand to cover his slightly red cheek.

Sakata rubbed his cheek once he was free, pouting a bit before giving the short brunette another confused look.

"What do you mean?"

"Just know that this was Amatsuki's idea," was all Urata said before he disappeared to somewhere else.

Eh? Sakata just stared at where the male was, still confused at what he meant. What did I miss while I was asleep?

He decided to text the red eyed brunette, hoping he'd know and tell him what this was all about. Sakata immediately blushed as he read the male's reply. E-Eh?!?

Amachan!!!
