Work Text:
It was a normal day after school at Babyls Demon School. All the students had left and the teacher was cleaning up and getting ready to head back to their homes. You and Balam were cleaning up and packing up for the day in his office. He had a lot of paper he had all over the place from his research. So you were helping him pick it all up and put it away.
You were putting some of his research paper on birds into a file, when Balam turned to you and said, “Thank you (y/n) for your help again, I would usually ask Kalego but he is busy with the principal.”
“It's no problem, Balam, I don’t mind at all,” You say as you pick up another set of paper, “Now where do these papers go?”
Balam let out a hm and walk over to see what paper you were talking about. He leans down and gets closer to you causing you to blush. You do have a crush on Balam. Even though Balam can be intimidating he is truly a kind, and gentleman. But with his profession he is touchy so he does get close so it always makes you nervous and blushes.
“Oh, these go in the imaginary creatures file.” He said looking at the paper.
“Really what imaginary creatures are these?” You asked, looking at the paper.
His eyes light up as he starts telling you all about the imaginary creature. You were not ever hearing what he was saying but you were watching his expression as he was talking. As he was excited and his eyes were sparkling brightly like a star. As well even though you can't see the lower half of his face you know he is smiling underneath the mask.
Without even thinking you say, “You're cute when you talk like that.”
Balam's face went wide, eyes hearing you say and his voice went silent as he just looked at you with what you said. Your face goes into the same look as him but your face is covered in blush.
“What did you say?” Balam asks, walking closer to you.
“Well um.” You say backing stumbling over your words trying to explain and pick them back up from what you say.
As you try to get your words and back away from him as he tries to get closer to you. As you continue to back away from him the paper of his research on the imaginary creatures falls to the ground and in turns causes you to trip and slip from the papers causing you to fall. Balam tries to catch you but ends up falling as well, ending up falling on top of you.
So Balam was on top looking down at you with some of his hair covering his face. He looks at you and then takes off his mask. So you see the lower part of his mouth with the one half of his mouth ripped off showing off his large sharp teeth. He starts to lead down and before you know it he places a kiss down on you. And before you could do anything he pulls away and there is a giant red blush on his face.
You stare at and pull his face down and kiss him. The kiss was awkward maybe because either of you doesn’t know how to kiss or from the scar on his face. The kiss was soft and slow and it felt like time almost stopped for us. Even though it lasted for a few moments it felt like it lasted a lifetime. Balam pulled away first and as he pulled away you saw the pure happiness and love he had on his face. After a few moments of staring at each other Balam seemed to finally remember the position you two were in and immediately got up and then helped you up as well.
Though the blush on his face Balam awkwardly asks you, “So (y/n), would you like to go out after we clean up maybe get some drinks?”
“Yeah, I would love to.” You say.
He had a big smile on his face as he put his mask on and started cleaning up the papers. You two finish cleaning up with both big smiles on your face.
