(Tw:/// Suicide attempt mention)

Emo looked down in shock noticing her second kid running into the room in a panic. It made her curious as usually he never did that unless he was worried about something. But she could tell he didn’t feel that way as the young demon was blushing intensely. With a concerned look on her face, she walked up to him as he tried to sneak past her,”Are you ok-” she asked before he covered his mouth with his hands,


“Yeah-perfectly ok mum!” he replied in a hesitant voice. But Emo could tell something was up. She grabbed him by the back of his coat,


“Cassius” she replied tilting her head slightly. In concern. He tried to grip himself away before she lifted her hand feeling her powers admit into his head as she closed her eyes, allowing herself to see where he was before hand.

“So it shoulllddd be around here somewhere!” a purple themed vampire shouted through his armor helmet as him and Cassius walked through the Ice Kingdoms forest, “My dad said before the earth got reset, accent humans used to drive theses things called cars!” Cassius couldn’t help but to let out a slight giggle. He had came friends with this vampire a few weeks back after he had gone to the lake for a second time, to once again attempt a second suicide attempt. Before he even made it down there Ike had caught him and got curious why he was he was going down there in such cold weather. And well after some talking to, Ike invited him over to his dad’s castle and they ended up becoming close friends. Now the vampire was bringing him over places in the Ice Kingdom.


He only nodded his head as Ike made his way out of the scrubs, “I think I’ve heard of cars to. There’s not really used anymore due to us being able to use our wings” Cassius popped his own wings up a bit excitedly. Him and his brother Chip, always liked learning history of old humans.


Ike adjusted his helmet slightly as he finally noticed what appeared to be a broken down pick up truck infront of them. The camper shell fully open and completely empty and free to sit in, “HA! I knew I would find it! I like going here to relax sometimes” he yawned as he ran towards it. Cassius flapped his wings off the ground flying over to the spot Ike seemed quite excited to go to. The young demon couldn’t help but to smile as the two of them jumped up onto the trucks back. Ike putting his left arm back slightly as he layed down inside the back of the trucks trunk, enjoying the view of the sudden snow fall,”See what I mean Cassius?” he asked curious, hinting at him to look at the snow.


He could definitely agree with the kid that it looked quite appealing. Especially considering he didn’t get to see rain or snow much where he lived. As he sat inside the trunk he couldn’t help but to look over at Ike’s helmet as he kept adjusting it up and down slightly. The only thing Cassius had seen was his face once-when he was arguing with his mom and he had to open the mouth guard in order to fully talk to her. His vampire fangs were noticeable when he did it. But now that he was alone with him and he was struggling…”Hey Issac, you could probably see it better if you took off that heavy helmet of yours” he said putting his hands onto his side.


Ike looked up at Cassius with a concerned look on his face unsure if he wanted to go that route with someone he had met a few weeks prior, “Hmm. I mean yeah that would be effective-but uh” he stopped his wording getting up from the trunk floor and looking up at Cassius with his mouth still covered,”Do you really wanna see my face? I mean-I’m pretty fine with watching the snow with my helmet on I swear-” he was interupted by Cassius grabbed his shoulder armor.

“Now why are you so worried about your face? You got anything insercure?” Cassius asked curious. Ike pulled himself up slightly. Even though he was wearing a helmet he could tell the young vampire was blushing.


He slid himself down on the edge slightly, “It’s the teeth mainly… my dad tells me us vampires need show our fangs with pride but-angels and demons don’t have fangs and we’re kind of the only vampires here so it just makes me so insecure about myself” he breathed. Cassius only nodded his head…. Goodness he knew how that felt to be different like that.


He put his hands off Ike’s armor and let out a slight giggle,”eh it could be worse. I mean look at me I’m a half-demon half angel and I have Heterochromia, you don’t see a demon like myself walking around everyday with one blue eye and one green eye do yah?” he asked curious, “it makes me feel just as out of place as anyone else. But I still show both my eyes anyways” he laughed Ike cocked his head slightly as he looked up at the demons eyes, they glittered in the snow as Cassius continued staring at that helmet of his.


Ike suddenly shook his head,”you gotta a point there… but I don’t know-” Cassius interupted him again grabbing his mouth piece,”HEY-” Ike yelled. He couldn’t help himself he just had to know what he looked like. He already felt butterflies in his stomach the more the young vampires personality came out infront of him. He was so sweet like his mother and extroverted like his dad, there was no reason for him to be hiding his face like this whatsoever.


Cassius smiled as he managed to pull out the neck piece from his helmet, slowly slipping it off his head in a quick motion. This made it possible to finally see more than just his purple eyes and tips of his grey-black hair, “Put it back-” he yelled as Cassius ignored him putting his helmet over on the side of trunk. He couldn’t help but to blush, noticing how perfectly well he looked like his dad. Mainly with the very hair and the vampire fangs that went down his mouth,


“Woah” Cassius whispered as he suddenly started coming excited, “You look cute without it on!” he smiled happily. Ike now fully exposed, could be seen his face fully turning red as Cassius grabbed his chin,”dude-you should really invest in wearing in less” he could feel his own face turning red, the kid was definitely fascinating. At least to him anyways- Ike stood up his blush becoming more obvious,


“Oh no-I couldn’t considering I basically protect my dad’s castle because I have nonthing else to do- anyways” he put his hands down on his knees. Cassius just giggled knowing Ike was coming hestaint. Cassius grabbed his shoulder once again,


“Well at least take it off when you’re with me” he suggested, “I really like you, you know, and your face definitely makes me like you even more-” he stopped himself turning his body around away from him and feeling his wings jump up in embarrassment. This only made Ike cock his head again as Cassius’s own blush was intensing up,”Uh-forget I said that” he blushed knowing full well he was developing feelings for this vampire, which was bad- in his eyes because of his own powers and his inability to control how he felt others feelings around him.


Luckily Ike seemed obvious to what he was talking about he grabbed a hold of his hand and let out a giggle, “well I’ll try to work on it. Thanks for at the very least coming out with me here, you seem very kind” he smiled now giving the demon a hug which only caused him to spread out his wings with a giant blush.
