Barbatos x G/N Reader

Genre: Fluff, demons, help with any work (that's all I've got)

A/N: Does anybody else need some sort of noise in the room in order to work, but if it's too much noise, you get distracted? No... Just me? Okay.

When you first entered the Devildom, you were extremely overwhelmed with the change of environment. Before you were randomly transported to what you would consider Hell, you were finally able to actually sit down and attempt to complete your school work. Well, you attempted to, but then you were transported to this place, and immediately met with a bunch of men staring you down.

When you asked where you were and how you were going to get back home, the man in front of you spoke.

"Why, you're in the Devildom as an exchange student! You'll be here for a year, according to our exchange program rules." He said enthusiastically as if your whole world wasn't just thrown off balance. You looked around and almost screamed at how big and intimidating these men were. They were so... Tall.

How were you supposed to survive this? You didn't even have time to get your things. You didn't even want to be here! You wouldn't be able to even get through the night without your favorite pillow. What were you supposed to do-

You felt a tap on your shoulder, causing you to turn around with your fists in front of you. The man behind you only gave you a small smile and nodded to the luggage in his hands, nudging them in your direction. You took the suitcases and blinked in confusion. You tried to speak, but he beat you to it.

"I'm sorry for the delay. I've gathered all of the things I believe you need. If there is anything more that you need, you can contact me and I will get it for you." His teal hair didn't move even a bit when he gave a deep head bow. Everything about him was in place, no imperfections.

After that, you began to stick to the only demon you weren't afraid or annoyed to talk to.

"Barbatos, could you help me with this work?" The butler immediately came to your rescue as you struggled to comprehend what was considered an easy math problem. He stood to your side and glanced at your work before he let out a small laugh. You frowned and looked up to see his usual ghost of a smile on his face.

"I do not want to insult your intelligence, but is this really a problem you need guidance on?" Your frown deepened as you scanned the math problem once more. Nothing came to your head as you stared at it more, so you looked back up at Barbatos, only to see him in a seat beside you. He slid the paper in front of him and began to explain how to solve it.

He was always like this. Most of the time, he would help you even without your insistence, or he'd wait for you to ask him for his help. He would swoop in and save the day, and he'd never bat an eye. He was always so calm and patient when it came to working with you, and you started to think that he had a soft spot for you.

Even when the brothers at the House of Lamentation helped you with whatever you needed, you often reached out to Barbatos for assistance. And he gladly helped you out. He'd even come to your classes and give you things that you had only mentioned in passing. For example...

"I'm sorry to interrupt, but I need to give MC this lunch I've prepared for them."

"MC, you will most definitely need these paintbrushes for your art class."

"You left your wallet at the castle." You almost choke on your food as he gently places down your item on the lunch table. "I apologize for the scare. I did not intend to show up without warning."

The butler did these things without skipping a beat. He was always on schedule, even when he decided to visit you. If you didn't know any better, you'd think that Barbatos was randomly visiting you when he had time off.

Unfortunately, everything he did was planned out.

But that was okay. As long as he made an effort to bond with you, you didn't mind his uptight schedule.

A/N: Sorry for how short this is... I've had this in my drafts for a week or two, and I'm only releasing it now because I didn't know how to finish it. Hope you enjoyed it either way!
