It has been a few weeks since Belphegor killed you, most of the brothers had gone back to normal.
Most.
Mammon had a hard time sleeping without you. He would have horrible nightmares, they were uncomfortably vivid. He could feel the broken vertebrae in your neck, your blood dripping onto his pants from his hands. The smell of it suffocating him as he sobbed onto your limp shoulder, begging for you to come back.
He would run to your room, shaking you awake before getting into your bed and holding you as close as he could, holding your face and kissing you over and over. Putting his ear to your chest to listen to your heartbeat and feeling the warmth radiating from your body. Your rhythmic breathing lulling him to sleep.
You run your hands through his hair, kissing his forehead and reassuring him that your here with him, telling him how much you love him, how you don't want to leave him like that again.
If you decide to go to breakfast he follows you, his grip on your arm nearly bruising as he holds you as close as you can. When you sit he pulls your chair right against his, he holds your hand under the table, giving gentle squeezes as a small 'I love you'.
Mammon loves you, but seeing the left over injuries from the attack scares him the first few times of seeing it. He avoids all kinds of contact with your neck and he completely refuses to look at it, however if you ask for any kind of comfort he will help you anyway he can.
He's scared to touch you after, you have to initiate any kinds of hugging/cuddling. Once you tell him its ok he loosens up, he still refuses to wrap his arm over your shoulders like he used to, instead he wraps them exclusively around your waist.
He apologizes to you profusely for not being being there to save you, also gives you tons of kisses on your cheeks, hands, forehead, and lips. you're waking up to him kissing you, you're getting ready and he's kissing you, you're walking to school and he's kissing the back of your hand, you're going to bed to him kissing you. You get the idea.
He refuses to leave your side, he's practically glued to you, he's texting you during class more than usual. He might come off as controlling to others but he's just scared to lose you again, he means well.
