If anyone asks Brett, "How has your under-the-same-roof life with a devil been?", he is not gonna lie, it does go well, strangely. When Eddy is still injured, the angel will take on responsibilities such as cooking and taking care of him. Later, right after the devil recovered, he determined to do little things like housework, making coffee, sometimes just running around cluelessly like an idiot, or simply staring at Brett while he cooked.

The angel wasn't quite comfortable with Eddy's gaze at first; it made him feel as if the devil could see the deepest parts of his soul, and the gaze itself somehow came with... desire? He knows that's not the right way to describe it, but he couldn't find another word. Nevertheless, as the days goes by, he began to accept the devil's presence.

Eventually, Brett's loneliness becomes something of a distant memory with Eddy by his side. To avoid either Heaven or Hell know about this swapping situation, which will cause a big mess, they have decided to pretend nothing happened and continue sending responses to each side as usual, hoping to buy some time until the swap is reversed. It's a risky gamble, but the pair decide it's the best way forward in light of their limited options.

One of the things surprises the angel most when he learned about the other is that Eddy can play violin, pretty well, Brett has to admit. At the first time he heard the devil's play, he thought it was because of some "leftover soul" in his body that helped Eddy, which caused the devil burst out laughing.

"Violin has been a part of me for a long time, love." - Eddy, in Brett's body, says while wiping the tears in his eyes came from laughing.

"That was unexpected. I thought in Hell you only liked hearing people scream or cry, not music."

"There's a lot you need to know about me, my dear angel. But now I think I should take a bath because I don't want to get smell and make you hate me. It would break my heart."

"Alright, just do the same as usual, I'll be right there after I finish this soup."

"Roger."

To be honest, the only thing that still troubles the angel is that he doesn't want Eddy to see his body. Inside every devil's brain, he was taught, there are nothing but murdering for joy and lust. Although Brett has a sense Eddy is not like others, he is still a devil, and the angel must use caution.

Talking about their first time "doing it", it was such a mess.

"I really don't know what you have to worry about, I can't do anything to you right now anyway." - Eddy sat in a bathub with his eyes covered by a black cloth and hands raised to allow Brett to scrub his body.

"I was taught not to believe in devils." - The angel struggling. He was obviously not used to assisting someone else in taking a bath, so even though he tried to be extremely careful, his entire body was sill covered in water from head to toe.

"Wow that hurts so bad, even though I'm willing to give you my life? Furthermore, I believe you should consider that if I wanted to do anything to you, it would be worse when you continue to touch me like that, dear angel. I'm already getting butterflies in my stomach and I truly think that I can't take it any longer. Look, I can even feel your warm ha-."

"I'll give you this soap for dinner if you keep saying things like that. Don't think I'm afraid to try."

"Come on, honey, this is your body. You should love it like the way I d-"

Brett doesn't wait for Eddy to finish his sentence before stopping the inappropriate speech with a light splash that covers the other's face with water and soap bubbles. Eddy stops talking immediately, feeling the surprise of the cold water.

"Alright alright, I will stop, gosh you are such an edgy black cat, but I love it anyway."

"Yeah, you don't want to be scratched by this edgy black cat."

Even though Brett despises admitting it, living with Eddy brings him so much joy, despite the fact that the devil can be extremely annoying at times and the angel nearly goes insane as a result of his filthy behavior. Nonetheless, the angel gradually adjusts to this strange situation, and he occasionally considers how, after swapping back, he and the devil will return to opposing sides, fight against each other, and, worse, in the final war, they may have to kill the other. This thought weighs heavily on the angel's heart, as he begins to feel a deep connection, or he will call it "friendship", with the devil.

They have been opponents since their origin but now the angel starts to understand that they have so much more in common than he had ever imagined.

Brett awakens from his nightmare as his heart nearly falls out of his chest. He had a dream, his hands were full of Eddy's blood, and that even as the devil's breath faded, he still looked at Brett with those sparkling eyes and told him jokes as if they were still living together under one roof. A wave of unknown sadness washes over him.

He knows that day will come. The thoughts inside Brett continue to fight each other; one side tells him he shouldn't be too close to Eddy, while the other brings him some strange bond with the devil. He wishes to learn more about Eddy and there is something about the other that draws him in, despite being warned to stay away.

"Perhaps I can change him?"

That idea suddenly enters the angel's mind, and he can't stop himself from fantasizing about the day when they will be able to fight along with each other on one side.

"You are out of your mind, Brett, don't forget about your mission. You were born to lead Heaven's defense against bad things. That devil just wants to play around." – He mumbles.

The angel stares at the door in front of him, wondering how the one lying on the sofa outside has been, has he fallen asleep? Though his purpose for staying here is to take care of Eddy, ever since the devil has healed, he insisted on leaving the room for Brett and sleeping on the sofa.

"Eddy can be a good friend."

The angel slowly falls asleep.
