The next day in the morning as Mammon was waking up in bed and sat up rubbing his eyes.

Barbatos walked in and said setting down his shirt and jacket  On his lap.

Barbatos : this got ruined when you did your little suicide mission. And you started crying about it in your sleep so I spent all night fixing it.

I'm sure a few threads won't effect anything that much"

Mammon : thanks....I doubt I would be able to ever buy this again"

Barbatos : avatar of greed and can't afford to rebuy a jacket? How impressive of you"

Mammon : hey! I can afford it!... just....not right now....or in the next few years....I got a lot of other things to pay off"

Barbatos : guess greed doesn't benefit you"

Mammon : ..... your mean...."

Barbatos : guess this explains why you would steal from me in the future guess you do that a lot?"

Mammon : so what's going on today"

Barbatos : well nothing for you. Can't have you going out and trying to play hero again. "

And nothing for me I usually lay low for a bit after going on a killing spree like that"

Satan : ..... what's your body count?"

Barbatos : .....so far two to
Three hundred. Different reasons most self defense....ish?"

Mammon : ......."

Barbatos : most likely that number went higher for one reason or another "

Mammon : I mean....not that surprised honestly....which Is concerning...."

Barbatos : like I said before I could listen to you talk about how powerful I am all day. But get dress and we can talk about it afterwards "

After this he walked away and Mammon started putting his shirt on and the last thing he heard Barbatos say as he left the room was.

Barbatos : you were watching me sleep for an awkwardly long amount of time. It was actually quite comforting"

Mammon : I wasn't!?"

Later as he walked out of the room he saw Barbatos in the kitchen with food looking like he was going to attempt to cook.

Mammon then walked over and asked seeing Barbatos thinking really hard.

Mammon : what are you doing?"

Barbatos : I figured I might try cooking since you talk about how I'm such an expert at it"

Mammon : do you want help?. I'm pretty sure I remember one of the lessons"

Barbatos : that sounds like fun"

Barbatos smiled at him and again this just scared Mammon for some reason.

Few hours later they spent this time cooking and Mammon was teaching him everything he knew without Barbatos doing the work.

Because whenever Mammon attempted to show him he. Burned everything.

And after awhile Barbatos got the hang of it and actually made something editable

And later as they were eating at the table Mammon started thinking about how Barbatos was acting around him.

Constantly couldn't tell if Barbatos was complimenting him or insulting him.

Barbatos was always trying to get as close as he could and always seem to really love whenever Mammon talked about himself or about him in the future. He seem to just love hearing him talk about anything.

And he always had this certain look on his face and or in his eyes whenever he was around him.

And suddenly Mammon started putting the clues together. And Barbatos knew and started laughing a. Little bit.

Barbatos : so you finally realized it Mammon?"

Mammon : .....y....you like me!?"

Barbatos : well yeah? There's nothing to exactly hate about you?"

Mammon : ......"

Mammon just sat there frozen in shock while on the inside he was freaking out about this.

Past Barbatos liked him which weirded him out and was a big shocker.

And started wondering why and if future Barbatos liked him at all also. and all of this was freaking him out.

Barbatos : you don't get many people saying that to you do you?"

Mammon : no! I get plenty! Everyone wants Mammon!"

Barbatos : I see. So how many actual dates and relationships have you been in?"

Mammon : ..... that's not the point!     "

Barbatos : guess You find it weird for me to like you. Chances are I probably still do in a way. So take my confession in any way you like"

Mammon : ..... how are you so chill about this?"

Barbatos : I've accepted a long time ago tha....I mean I know you weren't going to like me back obviously?. Doesn't mean I still won't tease you to freak you out for my own amusement"

Mammon then put his head down on the table and said.

Mammon : ...... this is going to be awkward now...."

Barbatos : how is this any different from the many people that apparently want some Mammon?"

Mammon : ....I'm not going to be able to face you in the future "

Barbatos : your so dramatic"

Mammon : ....also...you said something about accepting a long time ago that I wouldn't like you. Did you know me lo-

Barbatos : it's not important. Doesn't change anything so why bring it up? Anyway let's not dwell on things that don't matter "

Barbatos then got up and went to start cleaning the kitchen. And Mammon wonder why Barbatos Dodge the question.
