It was inspired by the song 'past lives' wherein the lyrics says "Lost love is sweeter when it's finally found"

In a world where the realms of angels and demons converged, two inseparable friends, Geno and Reaper, had their friendship forged under the most unusual circumstances. It was a world of celestial beauty and infernal power, where the forces of good and evil coexisted in an uneasy balance.
Geno, a radiant angelic being with a heart full of compassion, and Reaper, a powerful demon prince with a formidable presence, had met two years ago when they were merely six years old. From the moment they crossed paths, they became each other's closest and dearest friends, their bond transcending the boundaries of their respective worlds.
But fate had a peculiar way of testing their friendship. Reaper received news that he was to move away, leaving Geno behind. Tears welled up in Reaper's eyes as he clung to Geno one last time. In a moment of deep emotion, he handed Geno a golden locket, shaped like a heart, and spoke with sincerity, "Geno, I promise one day I'll find you, and we'll be together again. Let this locket serve as a symbol of our bond, a reminder that we will never forget each other. When we reunite, we'll fulfill our dreams - we'll get married and savor endless ice cream delights!"
Geno, holding back tears, embraced Reaper tightly, cherishing their final moments together. Little did he know that a decade would pass before they would cross paths once more.
Now, at the age of sixteen, Geno's mother informed him that it was his first day at Underverse Academy, a prestigious school where both angels and demons came to study side by side. She encouraged him to make a lasting impression and not be late. Geno sighed, his thoughts drifting back to the events of ten years ago as he held the golden locket in his hands.
Upon arriving at the academy, a chance encounter with an angel named Frisk brightened Geno's day. Apologetic and friendly, she introduced herself and soon discovered that they were assigned to the same class. Frisk, in a generous gesture, offered to be his guide. Geno accepted with gratitude, realizing that he was making his first true friend since Reaper.
Their journey through the school halls led them to their shared class, where a hooded figure approached Geno, sending chills down his spine with his unsettling presence. To Geno's surprise and delight, the mysterious figure was none other than Reaper, who had changed in many ways over the years.
Reaper, now playful and flirtatious, teased Geno relentlessly, causing him to blush with a mixture of embarrassment and something deeper. The once quiet Geno found his voice as he couldn't help but react to Reaper's antics.
After the class, Geno and Reaper were left alone. Geno finally summoned the courage to speak up, "Ugh, stop it!"
Reaper, undeterred by Geno's outburst, continued to flirt and even gave him an endearing nickname, "sweetie." Geno, though flustered, found himself drawn to Reaper's charisma and charm.
Frisk, who had observed their interaction, couldn't resist teasing Geno about his newfound crush. Their playful banter left Geno red-faced, but it also ignited a spark of self-discovery within him.
As the months passed, Geno and Reaper's friendship deepened, and they began to converse more freely, sharing stories and laughter. Geno couldn't deny the growing feelings in his heart, and he found himself looking forward to every moment he spent with Reaper.
One day, during a research class about the ancient war between angels and demons and how it came to an end, Geno and Reaper were paired up for a project. They decided to work on it together at a nearby park, strengthening their connection as they delved into the intricate history of their worlds.
As the day turned to night, it became too late for Reaper to return home, so they decided that he would spend the night at Geno's house. Geno, feeling a mix of excitement and anxiety, went to take a shower, cautioning Reaper not to do anything foolish in his absence.
Reaper, left alone in Geno's room, couldn't resist exploring. He stumbled upon a photograph of Geno with his family, and in the picture, Geno was wearing the same half-heart-shaped locket that Reaper had given him.
Just as Geno emerged from the bathroom, Reaper held up the locket, realization dawning on both of them. "It's you, it's really you," Reaper whispered in awe.
Geno, overwhelmed with emotion, finally recognized his long-lost childhood friend. "Wait, OMG, you're my childhood friend?"
Reaper drew Geno close, their hearts pounding with a mix of joy and nostalgia. "Yes, and I'm here to keep our promise."
Their lips met in a sweet, passionate kiss, sealing their rekindled bond and promising a future filled with love, ice cream, and the fulfillment of a childhood pact. The locket, once separated, was now whole, just like their hearts. And so, their journey together began anew, in a world where angels and demons, friendship and love, could thrive side by side.
