Ship - Riccaro x Mikael

++++----+++---++--+-

The sun shone brightly through the leaves. A small Demon kid was skipping through towards the Mess Hall. He hummed a small tune while thinking of what he should do that day. Riccaro's smile faded when he turned a corner. He came to a halt as tears built up in his eyes. Riccaro's hand shot up to his mouth to muffle a sob. Ahead of him was Momiji... But that wasn't the worst part. She was kissing Jyles. The man he had met a few days ago when Momiji asked him to The Aphrodite Ball. Riccaro pulled the letter he had gotten from her with their plans for the ball and crumpled it up. Momiji's ear flicked and he pulled away from Jyles. "What wrong Darling~" Momiji turned her head in Riccaro's direction. She pulled herself away from Jyles' grip. That's when he turned and saw Riccaro. Their eyes widened as they both realized they were caught. "Riccaro I-"

"Save it..." Riccaro's voice turned cold with anger and sadness. He wiped the falling tears, trying to stop them. Riccaro gripped harder on the crumpled paper. He took a shaky breath before tossing the letter at the two. "Have fun at the damn ball." A shocked expression took over both their faces. Not only had Riccaro denied Momiji's request to go to the ball with him... but they had never heard him swear before. "I'm fucking done..." He turned away from them. His tears fell faster. Riccaro ran quickly away from them, forgetting about his hunger. A small storm cloud started forming above him as small bolts of lightning struck around him. Yet, he still ran quicker than ever.

"Mario will you stop with the storms?" Mario turned to Xylo with a confused expression. "That's not me Xylo, nor is it my Dad." It's Xylo's turn to be confused. "What's happening over here?" Mikael spoke up and he walked over. His hand gripped tightly on his staff as he approached them. "We dunno. Xylo thought I was causing the storm that's happening but I'm not." They all stayed quiet for a minute before realization hit Mikael like a ton of bricks. "It could be Riccaro." Xylo nodded in agreement. "He did tell me that his emotions may be linked to his power." Mikael nodded. "Does that mean something bad happened?" Mikael's eyes widened at Mario's words. "We gotta find him then. If that's what happened then the storm could worsen." Quickly they ran off, Mario towards the Egytpian side, Xylo towards the Asian and Mikael stayed to search there.

Mikael watched the sky. He scanned the dark clouds before he noticed something. A patch of darker grey trailing towards the woods. 'Maybe that's where he is...' Mikael followed the dark trail in the sky through the thick woods. He leaped over tree roots and ducked under branches. Dirt covered his legs and clothes. "I gotta find him... H-He could be hurt..." About an hour passed by dodging tree limbs and roots. Mikael stopped for a breather. He scanned the sky and noticed the dark circle ahead of him. 'There....' Mikael pushed a branch from his view and stepped out of the tree line. A large clearing filled with colorful flowers that drifted in the wind was ahead of him. A large cliff was off to his left. A large waterfall fell down gently into a pond with flowered lily pads. A large Japanese Cherry Blossom grew tall in the center of all the beauty. Lanterns dangled from the tree as well as a wooden swing. Mikael walked into the field, mesmerized by the beauty. Mikael started approaching the tree and then noticed a small figure curled up at it's foot. He stepped forwards and saw Riccaro was that figure.

 He stared at the demon in sadness and wonder. 'What in the hell hurt him?' The Pharaoh wiped the dirt from his face and carefully sat next to the Demonic Demigod. He placed a hand on Riccaro's shoulder only for Riccaro to pull away. Mikael shifted 'til he was in front of Riccaro on his knees. "Riccaro... Please look at me..." Riccaro shook his head and buried deeper into his arms. Mikael crawled closer to the upset Demon. "Come 'ere..." Riccaro leaped into Mikael's arms and sobbed into his chest. Mikael adjusted himself so he lay against the Cherry Blossom with Riccaro being cradled into his arms. Riccaro sobbed heavily into Mikael's chest. Mikael ran his fingers through the white hair and whispered calming words. Soon, Riccaro was reduced to sniffles but he refused to let Mikael go. "Are you alright?" Mikael spoke in a soft, gentle voice. Riccaro murmured a quiet no. "Do you wanna talk about it?" Riccaro hesitated a little. Mikael noticed this change and just laid there, holding Riccaro in a comforting manner. Mikael continued to run his fingers through the younger's hair. "You don't have to tell me..." Riccaro shook his head and sat up. Riccaro rubbed his bloodshot and puffy eyes with the palm of hand. Tear streaks stained his face as he sniffled a little. Mikael sat up and placed his hands on the sides of Riccaro's face. He leaned his forehead against Riccaro's. The Demon ghosted a small smile and giggled. "Riccaro... Can you tell me what happened?" Riccaro froze a little and thought of his next words. "W-Why do you c-care?" His voice cracked but still was laced with confusion. Mikael's face flushed as he stuttered. "I-I-I Uh.... Well.... I um... Uh..." Riccaro snickered at him. "You what?" Mikael paused. "Mikael?" Riccaro's voice came out as a hoarse question. "I-I love you Riccaro... and I wanna help you... I know you're nothing like your Dad and I couldn't see that then... But I do now and I'm sorry for all I've said to you..." Riccaro gave him a loving look. "It's alright Mikael...Besides... Momi-- I mean-- She wasn't the only one I had a crush on.." Riccaro smiled at him, sniffling as he took a breath.

A smile spread across Mikael's face and he pressed a soft kiss to Riccaro's forehead and cheeks. Riccaro laughed as Mikael littered him his kisses. Riccaro fell backward and landed on the soft grass. Mikael was over top of him with his hands placed next to his head. Riccaro's face flushed as he stared up at Mikael. The Pharaoh lowered himself so he was laying on Riccaro. Mikael smiled and kissed the Demon. Riccaro froze in surprise but slowly melted into it. Riccaro wrapped his arms around Mikael's next. The two pulled away for the need to breathe. 'Curse the need for oxygen...' Mikael sat up and pulled Riccaro to Mikael's chest. "I have two questions for you Riccaro..." Riccaro nodded and laid comfortably on Mikael. "One... What happened with Momiji?" Riccaro stiffened. "Well... A few days ago Momiji had asked me to Uncle Bryan's Ball." Mikael nodded and ran his hand up and down Riccaro's ball, trying to keep him calm. "I was on my way to the Cafeteria to get some Chicken Nuggets and I turned a corner..." Tears started to well up in Riccaro's eyes. Mikael murmured soothing words and waited for him to calm a bit. Riccaro took a breath and continued, curling himself into Mikael as much as possible. "She was kissing someone named Jyles... and she seemed to like it a lot... She had given me a letter with our plans for the ball so I crumpled it up and threw it after they saw me..." Mikael nodded, watching as the storm above completely dissipated. "So you're not going to the ball?" Riccaro sniffled a little before replying. "I plan on going still but with no one now..."

"Riccaro look at me..." The demon child looked up at the Pharaoh. "Will you be my boyfriend... and go to the ball with me?" Riccaro's eyes shone. A smile spread across his face before he spoke in glee. "Yes! Of course! I'd love to be your boyfriend and go to the Aphrodite Ball with you!" Riccaro placed a soft kiss to Mikael's cheek which caused them both to blush a bright red. The two Egyptians smiled widely and enjoyed each other's presence. "I love you Riccaro..." Mikael spoke softly. Riccaro gave him a toothy grin. "I love you too you stupid Pharaoh." Mikael gasped jokingly. "What's that supposed to mean?!" Riccaro giggled before standing. He reached a hand out to his boyfriend. Mikael took the help and stood up, still grasping his hand. "Let's head back to camp..." Riccaro nodded and started walking. Mikael followed next to him, interlocking their fingers. Riccaro led them down a grass pathway, being careful not to step on sticks. The two went off through the woods, both happy to have one another.

++++----+++Bonus---++--+-

About 20 minutes later, the two lovers arrived at the camp. Riccaro was skipping around pulling Mikael behind him. Riccaro came to a stop and turned to Mikael. "Can we go get some food? I haven't eaten in awhile.." Mikael nodded with a smile at his adorable demon. The two walked over to the Cafeteria while small talking.

Mikael opened the doors to the hall with Riccaro next to him. Mikael held an angry expression as Riccaro clung to Mikael's side in sadness. Ahead of them was Momiji and Jyles getting yelled at by an angry XyDad, Momma Cal, KyMom, and Step-Dad. Bryan stood off to the back with his wings wrapped around a shivering Inpu. Mikael and Riccaro snuck in unnoticed and grabbed food before making their way over to Bryan and Inpu. Mikael  sat down and Riccaro sat next to him. The Demon started to eat his chicken nuggets while Mikael talked with Bryan. "So Inpu went to the Nordic Underworld?" Bryan nodded while Inpu buried himself into him. "Cold... So cold..." Mikael and Riccaro laughed at Inpu. "Riccaro!" The Demon froze and sighed. 'Aw shit...' Riccaro turned to face Momiji, Jyles, and the Parentals. "Uh... Hi?" He waved awkwardly. "I'm so sorry... Will you forgive me and still go to the Ball with me?" Riccaro sighed and reached under the table. Mikael grasped Riccaro's hand and interlocked their fingers. "Well... I can forgive I guess... But as for the Ball.." Riccaro paused and looked over at Mikael with a loving smile. He turned to Momiji with a cold stare. "No... I will not be attending the Ball with you.." Momiji's eyes widened as the others held shocked expressions, except Mikael, who laughed lowly instead. "I already have another date... besides you weren't my only crush Momiji." The group ahead of him looked confused while Bryan snickered, already knowing who. "Um... Who? I bet they're no better than me." Mikael glared at her and stood up. "Excuse you sly bitch... I am better than you!" Riccaro laughed before standing up. He hugged Mikael's side, calming him down. "Wait... You're going to the Ball with him?" Riccaro nodded. "Not only am I going with him... I may be dating him now..." Riccaro and Mikael smiled. Mikael wrapped his arm around Riccaro's shoulders and pressed a kiss to his forehead. "Yep.." Cal stared at Mikael, slowly pulled out his chancla... "We need to have a talk about this Mikael..." Xylo and Kay nodded in agreement. 'Aww Shit.... Here we go again...'
