Sparda
~ Devil May Cry
Who’s gonna fight
For what’s right
Who’s gonna help
Us survive
His lips formed into a small smile as he moved to kiss her forehead. “Yes…together.” The demon emphasized the word slightly. Not just for her, but for himself as well. For he did not know how he died, and the thought still unnerved him greatly. But, he was alive currently, and his wife was beside him. Thus, Sparda knew there had to be a way to keep himself from dying or dying again as Eva would likely think it. But for now, the demon forced himself to not think about that as he mentioned the “elephant in the room”. Well, so much for not thinking on the subject of his hopefully not inevitable death. However, with him seeing Eva tensing up as if she was hurt, that easily brought his mind to focus completely on his wife and not possible future circumstances.
The demon stopped himself from growling loudly at the answer. He could hear the inner demon in him yelling to be released. Though, like always, Sparda repressed the urge. But if he ever saw those demons for himself, Sparda would gladly give in and tear them apart. “Alright….but, if you need to take it easy, just let me know.” While Sparda knew Eva wouldn’t want to worry him, he trusted her to be honest about her injuries. Even if he still heard growling deep inside of him at her being injured at all. The growling lessened slightly at the smile Eva gave him. A smile appeared on his face to mirror the look. A part of him still found Eva’s smiles to be so powerful. For no other human could simply smile at him and cause his inner demon to start to calm down.
Then again, such small reminders allowed him to remember just why he loved her. Well, more specifically, he felt reminded of one of the many reasons why he cared so much for Eva. He could go all day, and possibly even longer, about all reasons he loved Eva. Thus, while he would love to do so, he was sure no one would want to hear that, including Eva. But, that only proved more that no other person, other than maybe his sons, would ever have such power over him, and he was completely fine with that. His mind went away from those pleasant thoughts when he felt a hand on the back of his neck. His turquoise hues met those beautiful green hues once more as he felt himself being pulled towards her. His hands moved to place themselves on Eva’s cheeks the moment their lips met.
As he closed his eyes, his hands move to rest at her sides. His hands clenched the fabric of her outfit the deeper the kiss became. His lips moved in response to match the longing Eva expressed to him. His arms moved to wrap around her waist as he felt her arms wrap around his neck. His hands once more gripped the fabric as he pressed his lips more against Eva’s. However, before his tongue could flick out of his mouth, the demon felt the softness of Eva’s lips. He suppressed the urge to frown while his wife caught her breath. Soon though, Sparda found himself with his turquoise hues becoming warmer and his smile expressing that same warmth. “I missed you too, Eva.” Even if Sparda knew the time apart for him was lesser than the time apart for Eva, he still didn’t like to be apart from her.
He just wished that the time apart between them was the same. For he had no clue what it would be like to be permanently separated from her. Sparda could only guess that he would feel empty on the inside without Eva. That he would simply not be himself anymore. Though, like Eva, Sparda supposed that if he still had their sons, he would find some way to make it through. But, how would he have been able to do it without her? Just the fact she was able to do it on her own proved she was just as strong, if not stronger than himself. At least, in some ways. However, Sparda quickly got off that train of thought when he noticed Eva pulling out a necklace with a familiar ring on it. He would know that ring from anywhere. The sight of it caused him to almost grin.
Though, Sparda felt his chest warm up at the words his wife spoke so sincerely. If he was a more emotionally expressive man, he might have even found his cheeks heating up at those words. However, Sparda could rarely recall flushing. It seemed not even now his cheeks would gain any pinkish hue. Even if his lips did turn faintly upward into a sheepish little smile. “Is that so?” The sheepish smile quickly went away though as Eva asked an important question. He smirked faintly as he moved to take the necklace from her. “Let me answer that through action.” The demon took the ring off the necklace and moved to grip Eva’s hand. Then, gently, Sparda put the ring back on the proper finger. “Does that answer your question?” After that, Eva mentioned needing a tissue, causing Sparda to nod and just sit on the bed.
The, he heard Eva call for him, causing him to go towards the bathroom. When he looked inside, he blinked at the sight of the room being nothing but light. While the light wasn’t insanely bright, Sparda found his eyes closing just slightly. For his heightened vision could tell the strange light contained many moving colors. The movement reminded him of the many portals he had seen in his lifetime. To test the theory, he tried to stick his head through it. But, the moment he got closer, Sparda felt like he was being pulled inside. Thus, the demon stepped away from it. “It appears to possibly be some portal, my Lady.” Unfortunately, before Sparda could advise leaving the portal alone, he thought the light was beginning to spread. As if giving them no choice but to go inside the likely portal. “And a forceful one at that.”
Quickly, Sparda gripped his wife’s hand and looked at her. “I wish that was not the case. But, as long as you hold on, I promise we won’t get separated.” He looked towards the light and started to take a step forward. “So, we might as well just comply for now and hope it will lead us to our sons.” He tried to keep positive about the odd situation. Even if he knew most portals were never a good sign. However, with his wife upset, Sparda threw realism aside for a moment. After all, maybe they would be able to return home and everything would be fine? Though, before Sparda could think on the possibilities some more, he closed his eyes tightly to shut out the light. He made sure that he still felt the soft warmth of his wife’s hand before allowing his eyes to open.
He observed that they were now on a street in a city he had never been before. The faint scent of sea salt that went across his nose made him believe they were near an ocean. Luckily, due to him being naturally of a fire element, the heat of the place didn’t bother him. Though, the fact they were near a coast made him wonder if they should get some lighter clothing. However, with their previous discussion still lingering in his mind, Sparda realized that would likely not be the best thing to bring up. “It seems we have been brought somewhere else…But, hopefully this means we are one step closer to finding them…” Sparda smiled faintly at his wife. “Or just finding some answers in general.” He would prefer the former of course, even if the latter would be nice as well.
“Though, since you are possibly still in a…upset mindset, do you wish to find yet another hotel room until you are able to collect yourself?” He did not want to force his wife to cry in public. For that would be just cruel and unnecessary. “But, if you wish to move on with our search instead, just let me know.” While Sparda knew his wife well and loved her dearly, the demon never wanted to force a decision on her. After all, that would be controlling her, and Sparda found himself frowning just at the thought of controlling his lovely wife. Thus, the demon would wait for her decision, no matter how long it took.
