Chapter 7: The Taste of a Kiss

It's been three days since Denji jumped down into the Eternity Devil's mouth.

Io is leaning against a wall with his eyes closed. The pained moans of the Eternity Devil ring throughout the hall. Everyone's tired, even Io has dark bags under his eyes, well darker than usual. Power is laying face down on a bed with her face burred in a pillow.

Himeno is at the entry way, watching Denji. When she gets up and looks at Aki, who's laying in bed, recovering. "You still alive, Aki?"

"How long..." Aki weakly asks. "How long has it been?"

"About three days since you got stabbed, I think?" 

"Meowy..." Power moans.

Io's stomach growls and his smile falters a little. "If we don't get out soon, I'm gonna have to eat one of you."

Kobeni panics slightly. 

Himeno lays in bed next to Aki. "Let's all go out for drinks." She hugs Aki. "Since it's over... I'm gonna sleep a bit."

"It's over?" Aki asks.

Down with Denji. The Eternity Devil shows his heart to Denji.

"This is my weakness..." The Devil says. "It's my heart."

"Please kill me." The Devil begs. "I'm sorry. I apologize. It hurts..."

"What, already?!" Denji asks. "I was still having fun! It was like being in a pool!" Denji cuts the heart in half.

A few minutes later.

Io is next to Kobeni and he has his hands behind his head and lets out a yawn as the group walks out of the Hotel.

"We're out." Denji mutters and he holds up a piece of Gun Devil flesh. "Got a piece of the Gun Devil's flesh, the sky is clear... And I'm feeling good, like I just took a huge shit. It's like I'm floating..." He beings to fall backwards, but Himeno catches as he passes out.

"Whoa there." Himeno looks down at Denji. "He's out... Makes sense, he was fighting the devil the whole time without sleeping." She gives Denji a piggy backride and looks to Arai and Kobeni. "We'll get Aki and Denji to a hospital. You two head back to the office and check in."

Io yawns. "Screw you guys, I'm going home. And taking a fucking nap before the party." He walks off and his stomach growls. "Damn it, better hit up a ramen shop."

Later that night.

Division 4 and a few other members of the Public Safety are having a group dinner together. Io's at the head of the table, next to Madoka. Kuroka, with her two tails and ears out, is sitting next to Io and she feeds him some grilled chicken. 

Io then grabs a glass of beer and chugs the whole glass. "Ahhhh~ I really needed this."

Kuroka smiles as she feeds Io some ramen then she looks to the cooks. "Another beer please."

A cook nods. "On it." Kuroka then eats some curry.

Power pushes Arai to the side and covers her plate of food. "Away with you! The sashimi shall be mine!"

"What even is this?" Denji looks down at a plate of food. "Looks tasty!"

Kobeni then comes to the table, she was late. "Sorry... I got a little lost." She takes off her hat.

"Kobe, Kobe!" A female member asks that sits next to Io. "Right over here!" Kobeni walks over to her and sits down.

"Ms. Makima says she'll be late." Himeno states.

Madoka reads his menu. "Three parfaits. And then... Three shiratama dumpling trays."

Kobeni takes a bite of her food and she smiles. "I've never had anything this good before."

"You send most of your pay home, right?" Kobeni's friend asks. "Be sure to eat your fill."

Io slams an empty glass onto the table. "And get what ever you want! Work's paying for it." Kuroka orders another beer for him.

Kobeni nods and suddenly Power steals Io's fried chicken. 

"The fried chicken is all mine!" Power states.

Io's smile turns to an angry one. "Get your stinken paws off my food!"

Power hisses at Io and he hisses back. Kuroka then puts Ramen in front of his face and he focuses back on her.

"You didn't bring your Fiend, Fushi?" Aki asks him.

"They're a little too scary for a place like this." Fushi states. "I envy how reasonable yours is, Hayakawa. Even Io's Fiend is really reasonable."

A male Public Safety member lightly elbow's Denji's arm. "Hey! You're young, so order whatever you want! And eat up!"

"Damn it! i can't read most of these kanji..." Denji states.

Denji and Himeno start to talk about the kiss.

Io grabs his bowl of ramen and starts to drink it. Kuroka calmly sips on some sake. Io slams his empty bowl on the table. "Another!" 

Io grabs his beer and drinks it and sets it back down on the table. A small drunken blush starts to appear on his face as he finishes his fifth beer.

"This is a welcoming party for the rookies, so stand up and introduce yourselves!" The male member says to Denji. "Your name, age, and the devil you're contracted with!"

"Don't reveal your evil contract in public." Aki says to Denji. "You shouldn't share that with anyone you don't trust."

"Man, you never loosen up, do you?"

Himeno then grabs Denji and hugs him. "Aw, it's fine! It's probably fine."

"I wanna know hobbies, too." Kobeni's friend says.

"I'm Denji. I'm 16, if I remember right." Denji introduces himself and everyone is surprised how young he is. "My hobbies are eating and sleeping!"

"Yikes, that is young."

Himeno turns Denji so he's facing her. "You didn't drink, did you?!"

Denji holds up his glass. "Just tea."

Arai stands up all tense and sweaty. "I'm Hirokazu Arai! I'm 22 years old! I've got a contract with the Fox Devil! My hobby is writing haiku!" He yells his entire introduction. 

"That's the same devil as Hayakaptain." Denji says.

"The Fox Devil is friendly toward humans." Aki claims. "She's got contracts with a lot of hunters."

"But she only lets hot ones call on her head!" Himeno states. "As devils go, she's down bad."

Kobeni stands up. "I'm Kobeni Higashiyama. I'm 20... I've got a devil contract... but it's a secret. My hobby is eating tasty things."

Kobeni's friend looks at Madoka. "Isn't her outfit cute?"

"Yeah." Madoka agrees.

"My pet looks nice!" Io laughs and he holds up a glass of beer as he leans against Kuroka.

Kobeni blushes. "It's a hand-me-down from my sister."

"Kobeni has eight sisters." Kobeni's friend says. "Isn't that crazy?"

"I killed one of my brothers." Io says and he gulps down his beer. "Bastard deserved it!"

"You have brothers Io?" Madoka asks.

Io nods. "I have two brothers, well technically one now, and a sister. I'm the second oldest!" Io eats some curry and he points to Kuroka. "She has like a half-sister."

Kuroka's ears twitch as she looks up from her food, a little bit of rice is stuck on the corner of her mouth.

"Hey, where's your rookie, Fushi?" Himeno asks him.

"I'm sad to report that they were killed yesterday." Fushi reports. 

The table goes quiet. 

"Rest in peace!" Himeno shouts. "They will be... mist... pissed... missed?"

"Already wasted, huh?" Aki asks.

Io laughs and points at Himeno. Kuroka just calmly keeps eating her food.

"I've never seen Io drunk before." Fushi says to Aki.

"From what I know, he's a big drinker, but usually only drinks at his home."

"Do people really die that often?" Arai asks Fushi.

"Public Safety handles the devils too tough for the private sector."  The male member asks. 

"Yeah, we're always dropping like flies." Kobeni's friend says. "No one who joined up at the same time as me is still alive."

"Denji's not gonna die, cuz he wants a smooch!" Himeno hugs Denji then she lets go of him and picks up her beer and drinks it.

"Himeno gets really friendly when she's drunk." The male member states. "I'm pretty sure she's kissed everyone here, apart from Io and the rookies. There's no escaping her."

"Today's the day... of my first kiss." Denji says.

Makima suddenly appears beside him. "What kiss?" Denji slightly freaks out.

"Ms. Makima!" Himeno cheers.

"Look who finally joined us." Io says and he burps. "Sorry."

Makima takes her jacket off and looks at the cooks. "Excuse me, I'd like a draft beer."

Aki stands up and sets up a seat at the head of the table for Makima. "Have a seat, Ms. Makima."

"I've never seen her in person before." Kobeni's friend says.

Makima stands behind her seat with her coat folded on her arm. "So, are you kissing someone, Denji?"

Denji shakes his head. "No ma'am."

"Aw, are we not gonna kiss, Denji?" Himeno whines.

"We are!"

A little later.

Io sets down his tenth beer and his blush grows bigger. "Another!" He hiccups and grabs a bowl of curry and quickly eats it.

Kuroka  eats some roasted fish with a smile on her face.

"So what about kisses?" Makima asks Denji.

"No smooches?" Himeno asks Denji.

Kuroka leans her head onto Io's shoulder, but he seems to not care as he keeps eating some ramen. 

"His stomach is bottomless." Arai mutters as he looks to the many empty bowls and beer glasses in front of Io.

"Ms. Makima!" Denji calls out. "Y'know, I got one of them Gun Devil thingies!"

Makima nods. "Yes, I heard. That's very impressive, Denji."

"We've never seen devils appearing with Gun Devil flesh this frequently before." Aki states. "Given how the most recent one was targeting Denji, something must be going on. Do you know what Denji's deal is, ma'am?"

Makima doesn't answer at first as she takes a sip of her beer. "I'll tell you if you can outdrink me."

"Two more beers, please." Aki orders.

Himeno laughs and raises her hand. "I want in on that! Make it three!"

Io swipes all the empty glasses of the table. "Make it four! I want in on the action!"

Power slams her hands on the table. "Horse sashimi! Fried chicken! And more horse sashimi!"

Kuroka raises her hand. "More roasted fish please."

Denji raises his hand "Fried chicken!"

Many drinks later.

Io's head is resting on top of the table as he has his hand on an empty glass. With fifteen other empty glasses in front of him. A large blush is visible on his face and he groans. 

Kuroka pours a little sake into her cup and drinks it. She hasn't even finished her fist bottle.

There are many empty glasses in front of Himeno, Aki and Makima. Aki lost the drinking contest and Makima isn't even phased by how much she drank.

Aki and Himeno are resting their heads on the table.

"Another beer, if you would." Makima asks the cooks.

Io raises his empty glass and groans.

"You're pretty impressive, Power." Kobeni's friend compliments her. "There's aren't a lot of Fiends who can control their urge to kill."

"A feat of my advanced IQ!" Power exclaims.

"Is IQ part of it? How high is yours, then?"

"Um... 100."

"Is that high? I think my score was around 100, too."

"Then it was 120."

"If I remember right, Fushi's is high."

"Specifically, 134." Fushi states.

"Wow, must be proud enough to actually remember it." Kobeni's friend says sarcastically. 

"Io's is 142." Kuroka states and Io nods with his face still on the table.

"Then mines 150!" Power yells. "Actually, if I recall right, mine was 500? Perhaps a 1000."

A beer is set in front of Io and he sits up as a little drool falls from the corner of his mouth. Io picks up his glass and slowly sips it.

Himeno sits up and proceeds to kiss Denji with tongue. Then after a few seconds Himeno pukes in Denji's mouth.

Everyone voices their disgust. Kobeni's friend laughs. Kuroka covers her eyes. Kobeni almsot pukes.

"Ehh, I've seen worse." Io causally drinks his beer.

"Well, that's traumatic." The male member states.

"Uh-oh..." Makima says and she looks to the cooks. "Excuse me, can we get something to wipe this up?"

Power hits the table as she laughs. "Oh, this isn't good! Not good at all! Denji will swallow anything remotely nutritious!" 

Denji swallows the puke in his mouth.

"I'm gonna puke!" Kuroka covers her mouth.

Denji runs off to the bathroom and Arai gets up and follows him. Himeno falls backwards and passes out.

Io sets down his empty glass and picks up a plate of roasted chicken and eats it. 

.

.

. 

An hour later.

Everyone's outside. Power is holding carrying a drunk Aki.

Io is leaning against Kuroka with a drunk smile on his face.

"I'll see Hayakawa and his household home." Makima says then she looks to Arai. "Arai, look after Himeno."

"I haven't been this drunk in sooooooo long!" Io leans back and almost falls over, but Kuroka holds him up.

"Ms. Makima paid the tab tonight, everyone, so show your gratitude." Fushi tells everyone.

"Nothing tastes better than drinks someone else paid for." Kobeni tells her friend.

"Thank you, Ms. Makima~ Hehehe~" Io says.

Kuroka does a little bow. "Thank you, Miss Makima."

Makima looks around. "Huh? Where's Denji?"

"I saw Himeno pick him up and walk off somewhere." Fushi states.

"Well, Io, we better head home." Kuroka says.

"Yeaaaaaaaaah~" Io cheers and he laughs.

Kuroka then walks off with a drunk Io over her shoulder.

Io's POV.

I slowly wake up to a feeling of something grinding against my crotch. Nooooo~ Drunk dreams are weird... wait a minute.

I open my eyes to see Kuroka, in nothing but underwear, sitting on my crotch as I lay on our bed.

"Io, let's have some fun~" Kuroka says in a sultry and alluring voice.

I also notice that my hands are on her hips. Her skin is very soft and warm. I give her hips a little squeeze and she smiles and reaches her hand behind her back and unclips her bra and it falls down. Giving me a view of her perky and pink nipples. 

What do I do in this situation?
