Work Text
After spending time with lucifer for so long, we moved in together, and finally found peace in our relationship. Although I was skeptical at first...because why would anyone want to be with an average girl like me??? He proved to me, that he really cared. It was at least 3pm, and I had just returned home from work -As a surgeon at the hospital-
After receiving a very unnerving phone call from Lucifer, he told me he needed to show me something, and that it was extremely important. So I sighed, putting down what I was doing, and clocking out early.I was already really busy, but I didn't really care. I was glad to have an excuse to get away from work early, and cuddle up with my boyfriend; maybe binge watch something on Netflix after he shows me, what he wanted to show me. ~"What is it you wanted to show me?" I ask with a smile. "I called you over, because I wanted to show you something. I've never willingly shown anyone, aside from my family and my therapist- which I broke by the way."
I scoff, "oh luci. You can't drive me away this far into A relationship." I see a glint of guilt in his eyes.
"I know damn well, you're not going to feel the same after I show you..."
I whip my head up, "How could you even say that?" I snapped. "Lucifer..you're all I have."
He purses his lips. "I just want you do know whom you have. The truth, my truth." I shook my head. "You're the devil, even if you have lied to me...
I-I'd still be in love with you lucifer."Suddenly I found my shoes, interesting as he falls into silence.
"aria, this... this is the real me. The ruler of the underworld....my true form." His words slowly pick at my mind.
I couldn't help but feel at least the slightest bit nervous. But then...my hole world changes.~ His face was littered in scars.
It seemed to be marred, clumps of Red surrounding a pair of seemingly demonic eyes.
His eyes were sunk in, dark red around the rims.
His hole face, seemed to be coated in thick blood. His facial skin; completely scortched. I looked directly into his eyes, And smiled. " You're, my Everything." I murmured as I cup my hands around either side of his face.
"Y-You're not.. terrified????" He stammers. I chuckled. "Lucifer...I'm not terrified...in fact
I've never been, so in love with anyone in this world....then I am right now."
My voice cracked, when I spoke. He was so close, I could feel his breath shift. I could feel the warmth of his hands radiating like a furnace.
I could see into his eyes, to thick pools of expected infinite darkness.
But all I see, is Kindness...
"How could you love a monster like me?" He asks, and I noticed tears welling in his eyes. "You're no monster Lucifer.....you're my guardian angel." I murmur before pulling his face closer to mine.
A river of chills Rush down my spine. His lips, slowly but surely pressed against mine. And Our lips Danced, with delignt.
My heart raced; thrumming with anticipation. I never thought I'd be This lucky. To have someone in my life, actually willing to show himself. His true self. At that moment, I pulled him onto the couch, and He shifted back for some odd reason. "I don't care who you are, I don't care what you are. I love you lucifer." I told him, as tears slowly trickled down my cheeks. "So Stop hiding yourself. For me At least."He looked truly confused now, "you actually want to see my true form?" He asks. I shook my head, "why wouldn't i??" He ignored that, continuing on with the questions.
I should be the one bombarding him with questions, yet I'm still as a board. "Because you should be scared of me, aria." His tone losened, but his muscles eased up as soon as I sat down on his lap. "No I'm not." My voice fell monotone. "Then why are you crying?" He asks, in agitation. "Because I'm happy!"
"You're happy to find out that I'm A hideous monster who ruins lives for a living?" I glared into his Eyes.
"I'm happy, because I-I've never felt this way before..." He blushes, and it makes me melt. "Please." I beg. He smiles, and I can tell that he's now crying too. His Distorted figure returns, and He softens at the fact that I didn't flinch. I didn't wince, I didn't Show even the slightest bit of fear. And we kissed. And this time, sparks were ignited around us. I couldn't help the small moans that escaped my lips when he pulled away. "How did I get so lucky, to have someone as truly accepting as you, aria?"
"How did I find myself, a man as amazing as you?" I retort and he chuckled. "I guess we're just one of a kind, huh darling?" He muses.
"Just shut up and kiss me." I snarl, and pull his face back into mine. Colliding our lips. This was the most amazing night of my God given life. And I wouldn't have changed it for the world. -

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
~ Briar"What do you desire the most Briar?" Those words barely sank into my mind, But That's all my Monster needed, to here, those words...they instantly triggered me."Briar, are you still with us?" Chloe snaps her fingers pulling my attention. She then nods to Lucifer as if telling him to do something."Well Briar, what is it you truly desire?"as soon as those words left Lucifer's mouth- something tore at my chest.I was going to answer, until a crippling pain drove my heart rate up a notch. I slammed my right hand against my chest, feeling as if those words literally impaled me."What's the matter love?" His gaze softened as he approached me. Chloe looked at me from across the room, and her eyes held sorrow and guilt as I collapsed to the ground wheezing, "Briar! Are you okay?"Chloe reached her hand down and pulled me up, but a growl ripples from my tonsils.I ripped my hand away, and I felt my monster, envelop me in a fit of rage. "I DESIRE FOR YOU TO LEAVE ME ALONE!!" It was as if the monster just took control of me. I slapped my hand back over my face.'We're stronger than him!! Let me out! I wanna rip his Carcus out!!'It's words were Sending Small vibrations through my chest. I couldn't help the growls, exploding from my throat. "V-Vix! Nng! NOT Now!!" I rushed to my feet, and started ramming my head against the wall.My claws were starting to show, I knew my eye colour had to have changed by now. "Briar? a-are you okay? What's going on?" I could barely make out the voice in front of me."I SAID LEAVE US ALONE!!" I felt my tonsils practically tear themselves open. I shoved passed Lucifer.
He just had to Trigger us!! We were so close
I couldn't help the rage of the monster tearing at my chest. "URGG what part of NOT NOW VIX do you NOT UNDERSTAND?!?!?" I ran out of the precinct and dispersed into a dark alley. I couldn't stop what was about to happen, and it scared me. Actually no scratch that, it terrified me.Finally!! Let's go Take out the devil and his little kitten."Vix. We're not killing anyone. We're going for a run, to maybe hunt a rabbit and that's that"I could feel her disappointment Within my Veins. I rolled my eyes, as I made my way to the darkest end of the alley, unaware of the one whose been following me since I left the building.What makes him think it's okay to Trigger us like that?!"He's the devil, vix. That's what he does." 'I don't care what he is!! He isn't the boss of us!!'"Someone has to hold some sort of authority over us. This isn't a small town this is a big, big city. And we can't just go running off every time someone triggers us."her anger annoyed me. I scoffed."Honestly I think he's a good guy. But I just fucked up. I yelled in his face, when all he did was ask me something personal. We're in the wrong, and after this we're going to go apolagize, do you hear me vix?" As I lectured my inner Wolf, I stripped down. I hated having to leave my clothes in some alley, but I needed to change and get out of here, some how... "
'Whatever. Let's just get this over with.'
"Good" I replied snarky'I'm so excited I can almost taste the Freedom!!!!!'I ignore the excitement, groaning and whimpering as I arched the base, of my spine, curling downwards.I felt my claws extend from their sheeths, as I Gripped the concrete with my palms. "God, why does it have to hurt this M-MUCH!!" I felt my splean Split in half, as my body started morphing.My bones cracked, and I'd onlu yelp, and whimper slightly. I couldn't help the scream that escaped my throat; my vocal cords started mutating and the scream faded, from dainty and high pitched to A low growl, dispersing into a Roar.The agony pierced my veins- when my fur would slowly Form around me. My ears twitched, and my claws scraped the ground. My size grew a little bit. crackles and pops could be heard as my ribcage filled out, and my insides finally Finished regrouping."Finally. Free At last." A demented giggle escaped my muzzle before I chimed in; snapping, "killing one Human, will result in me taking over vix! We've been over this."It was really weird, being a wolf and still talking to myself. But believe it or not their are 2 minds in this brain. And the dominant one- which is me- is the only one that has the power to take over both forms.Therefore I had to remind My monster aka, wolf form- named vixilery. (I just call her vix though.) Anytime a human is put in danger due to our ignorance, I will put my foot...or My paw downI shook my fur, "alright vix, what do you say we go for a perimeter run? I'll take the first half and you take the second. We are still near that crimescene and I don't want Chloe thinking I'm careless, so listen closely if you notice anybody suspicious around here.""Yeah, I'm all Ears Briar." She retorts. "First let's go out for a midnight snack.""Do you see any damn forests? We're in LA! we're not eating any humans, and we are going to behave. So we're going to the nearest park.""not even the devil?! B-But He's fucking evil!!""Stop assuming everyones evil just because of their track record and mangy scent.""Whatever." She snarls, and I roll our eyes.I took over from there, and fell into a light trot; making my way out of the alley. A strange scent stole my attention, making my nose flare.
"There's an intruder nearby, I can smell...metal, cheerios..and is it damp fabric?"
"Yeah i know, but I smell more than one person. the other guy smells strangely like vodka?" I replied to vix alloud. I think it's a guy and a girl, one smells a little like Bullet smoke so i assume one is armed."Oh goody. Tell me why that sounds too familiar vix?" I say; my voice dripping in sarcasm." we're definetely being followed." "No shit sherlock!" I whisper-hiss in response.
~ Lucifer
I couldn't believe my eyes, and ears. I've always Known my father Could make some very strange creatures. I just never would've guessed he'd create a werewolf. or it'd be a girl, that works with me nonetheless.I looked over to Detective. she pulls her gun out of her hollster.She held it out, aiming directly at Briar, trembling at its hold. "Detective! What on earth?! Give me that!" I snatched the gun from her hands, and she Glared back at me."THAT THING COULD KILL COUNTLESS PEOPLE!!""But what is she doing right now?So far all she's done has hurt herself! And sometimes talk to herself!"She looked at me, than down at her shoes. "Listen, I think she's still talking." I told her looking past the wall again.I watched as the wolf, as black as night shook its fur. She then started actually speaking"alright vix, what do you say we go for a perimeter run? I'll take the first half and you take the second. We're still near that crimescene and I don't want Chloe thinking I'm careless, so listen closely for anyone Suspicious." Her words actually sounded, reasonable. Like she knew what she was doing, so I assumed maybe she really could control herself.But then another voice broke from its lips, and I tensed up"I'm all ears, briar."a raspy, but way too different to belong to briar. "So she's not crazy she really is talking to someone did you hear that Detective!"She rolled her eyes and pulled on my suit. "We're following that thing, get in." She motions toward her car. And we sped away in the night, after our 'dearest' wolf friend Briar.I couldn't help but feel guilty at the fact that I triggered her. Who knows what she must be going through already, and I only made things worse for her. Bloody hell.
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
~ BriarOur paws pounce against the surface of the earth. my heartbeat echoes; thrumming against my eardrums Meanwhile the scalding heated blood Of Vixilaries pent up rage pulses through my veins."Why are we always so-" my breathes hitch, as i pant. "So angry? I mean we are werewolves..Or well uh. We're a werewolf." She snarls. 'Rage is in our blood! In order to fight the change we must become one with it, or we'll be overwhelmed." I roll my eyes at that, turning out of the alleyway. Suddenly a pair of lights blinded me. Vixilary must have taken over though- I felt my fur gently brush back against my body- my claws Clinked against a small trash can."Vix, I can't see very well- did you take over?" She scoffed. 'Yes. We almost Ran into some sort of vehicle.' I roll my eyes at that. "Its los Angeles Vix, there's alot of those."Once I could see again, I found myself haulted. My eyes shift back and fourth, taking in the scenery. We finally made it to the park, but there was one simple problem. A dog. It was just standing there in front of me- or well us.'What..what is this? Are humans Mocking our species now?' I couldn't help but Giggle. "No vix, that's a dog. I think their ancestors are common grey wolves but uh, scientists can't exactly prove that."I could feel her confusion eIrking at my mind. 'What even is S-Sceen-ence?' I groan. "Its Scie-ence, and Sorry I forgot you were like apparently ancient. Anyways what do we do- i think it wants us to play."'Play, isn't that a threat?' I mentally face palm. 'Don't mock me! Now Let's Eat it.' I give it a small sniff- my nose twitching. He spins in circles before kneeling down, shaking Its tail. "But it's so cute, look at him!"I kneel forward, wagging mine in response, and we immidiately start playing. I was surprised it wasn't afraid, it might've been a stray of some sort. But I couldn't tell.For some odd reason I couldn't help but feel like- 'we're being watched. We shouldn't "play" with our food.' She interjected, as if on cue; Putting extra emphasis on the word 'play' in apparent disgust. I only ignore her, and follow the dog whose now Quietly pacing towards A thick Steam.Soon a draft wind waves the scent of One of the most exquisite Foods in the entire universe. Hot dogs.we move out gaze over to A large hot dog cart- a strange old man Hovering over it. He flashes an adgitated glare, trying to shoe the dog away- to which he's successful. The dog whines pathetically slumping against the tree next to me.We gawk at the hotdogs, being spun around. Drooling over their beauty.They may not be all that amazing to normal humans. But ever since the change, Vixilary and I have obsessed over meat.Bacon, and Sausage laying out in the kitchen back at the precinct didn't stand a chance against us. I somewhat felt bad for my co-workers. I ate almost everything accept the donuts. Donuts are Amazing and all, but that's The sad part. Since they're coated in chocolate I don't think we can eat them. So I avoid things like that at all costs.Being shifted and eating meat was different, if I didn't eat something while being stuck in vixie's stupid wolf Form then our hunt isn't fulfilled and I can't calm us down long enough to shift back. Alot of the time we'd hunt squirrels or rabits, when we could but eating hot dogs should be similar right?'What is that!? Chase it now!' I sigh. "Vix, have you even glanced at any of the Windows we passed on our way here? Look at us! We're A wolf the size of a horse for shitsake, it's a surprise we haven't already been spotted."'You're right..we've got to Use our stealth to An advantage.' I shook our head. "No..I don't think any sneaking will be necessary. We've got backup."We both remain silent, until I disperse into the Shadows behind a tree. Soon understanding seems to have sank into her Brain...Or well our brain. 'No! I am not wasting my skills on some Random street creature.' I think to myself, before scanning the area. I noticed A car driving at the very corner of the street All the way across the park, and It was all to recognizable. Why the hell were Lucifer and Chloe taking this route?I had to convince vix to do this, if we didn't eat we wouldn't fulfil our hunt therefore we couldn't calm down or shift back before they Caught me. Or, uh. I mean us, like this."Vix, just think about it like this. Dogs have descended from wolves- our greatest Ancestors Right? Technically By Associating with this, um. 'Creature' we're associating with your relatives. Besides, if we're caught like this we won't be able to hunt down the bad guy chloe's been Babbling over The past week."Vix hesitates for a moment. Thank God There was a stop light, ahead of them- other wise we'd be Dead right now. I couldn't help but wonder why they Were lagging so far behind It though. They seemed so focused on something.I found my mind being pushed back, and vix's voice Lingered about my mind as she communicates with the dog. Relief sinks through my veins.~ Lucifer's Pov"She Almost crushed our Goddamn car!!" I smirk at The detectives sudden burst in foul language. "My, my detective. No need to get so worked up- and Swearing to my father isn't going to help us solve this problem, trust me I would know."I light the cigarette dangling off my lip, as the detective rolls her eyes at me. "How are you- so Calm About this!!! She Could've Killed us!" I chuckle at that, "that wouldn't be the first time someone almost killed us Detective. Besides, I've had dozens of encounters with the supernatural." I take a drag off My cigarette before cracking the window."Lucifer! This is a REAL situation! FOCUS." I smirk at her anxiousness. I've always found it rather intriguing in all honesty. She can be quite hilarious when nervous."Just cruise, and Let us keep watching. If she manages to commit Murder, you may Shoot her down do as you wish, but first we should put a little trust in Briar. After all she is our Friend.""Friends don't lie about who they Are...and What they are." I scoff at that, a twinge of pain Scorching my heart. I take another sore hit of my cigarette, gazing out at the supposed beast whose managed to weave past large buildings- and into what seemed to be the public park.I'd say it wasn't exactly the smartest place to hide, but it didn't look like She was thinking. She looked More enraged rather that rational.Soon a blob Of darkness which appears to be some stray dog wonders in front of her. We'd managed to loiter about the Corner of the street, in order to take a good gander. If briar were truly the beast the detective claimed she was- than she would tear the poor Mutt open With an iron claw. But she seemed to be.."Is she...." The detective Quietly Trails off. "Playing. With a dog. I believe so Detective." I chuckle at the sight. A large Black Hound, twirling about like a giant Puppy. I knew she wasn't evil. After all I may be A beast, but I'm not Evil. Or at least I'm not what my father makes me out to be.I glance over to the detective who seems to be pondering her accusations- narrowing her eyes in sheer curiosity. "Now do you believe me?"She ignores my statement. I turn to face Briar, to find her leaning down- as if she were actually talking to the dog. I wondered what she could be saying why She'd be Talking to it, of all things. Of all living beings in her life why a dog?Briar, was Surely one strange being.~ Briar's PovMere seconds after me and vixilary's little discussion, the dog immidiately rushed the man. It grabs a sausage before bolting off down the street- distracting the greedy old man- who immidiately Starts chasing the dog down the street.I leap out of the darkness and grab the entire cart- clutching it In my jaws. I could hear the pattering of the dogs paws, as it follows close behind. I was relieved.I could here the man Roaring in anger as we fled the scene. The dog runs close beside me- as a car rushes towards us. More specifically chloe's Dumb old cruiser. I growl, throwing the Hot dog cart over my shoulder like a back pack- suprisingly haulting the food from slipping free.I clutch the scruff of the dogs neck- hopefully without drawing blood, and we leap in the air, over the car, just like the last one. The leap was to similar though, I couldn't help but feel like they had been following me.I continue carrying the dog, as we retreat into the nearest alleyway. I shake the cart off my neck- revealing dozens of Scars. The cart somewhat pierced into my Spine.The dog had no scratches what so ever though, and that really suprised me considering How sharp my teeth are.'Now can we eat it?' I sigh. "No, we can eat Our findings though." With that i dump out the cart- dozens of hot dogs including other pieces of meat flowing out into a pile. We both dig in.I was so relieved to finally get food into my system. We really deserved this. Despite our thieving, this dog may not have eaten for a long time. It's ribs were showing.Once we finished our meal. I nodded the dog towards the original alleyway I'd shifted in. Of course the dog probably wouldn't have understood if I tried explaining to him, dogs speak A really odd language, but it's similar to the language vix speaks so, that's the only way we could actually communicate.I loiter over to the pile of clothes sitting lifeless on the ground. "Goodnight vix." I mutter to the beast which lives behind the boarder of my mind. 'Night briar. Hope you catch the bad guy.' With that, the bones in my body start to crackle, once again like popcorn. The whines were hard to stifle, and the dog was surprisingly loyal- staying by our..Or Now my side. But he also seemed concerned.I flash a quiet smile before alowing the change to consume my body once again. Each groan, and Crackled roar fading out into a soft light squeak.I'd finally shifted back. Staring over at the bewildered dog next to me. I throw my shirt on, my skinny jeans slipped on, but not as easily. I had to squat a little bit to give myself some bootie room.I kneel down before me and vixie's strange hero. "sup dawg." I chuckle at my strangely accurate greeting/joke. the dog kind of whines, in response covering its face with its pause. I guessed it was a little cringed out. Stupid joke. "You wanna come home with me? I get payed tomorrow so I won't be able to get any dog food, but I make great sandwiches." It leaps in response wagging its tail. I ruffle its fur, before we walk back home to my appartment.I was kind of dreading work tomorrow. If Lucifer and Chloe were watching me...shits probably gonna get real.But I had vix. And my little hero. I couldn't help but chuckle at that nickname. "You turned out to be a real hero tonight." Maybe being a theif isn't exactly the best way to be considered a hero. But if that dog hadnt shown up- vix might've taken it too far, and forced me to seriously harm him.He'd probably be in serious dept after that little incident we pulled."You really are a hero huh. You know what? That's what I'm gonna name you. Hero." The dog nuzzles my hand as we loiter about the streets of Los Angeles.I hoped Chloe and Lucifer hadnt seen me, though.We'd be in for a hell of a ride.
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
My name is Kristen PurifoyI was Trapped in this mirror as a child, more specifically at the age of 4. I've never had to eat nor even sleep. I've always stared back at people, in horror and in pain...but no one notices me. Sometimes they'll speak to me, like there's someone actually in this place of solitude. This usually Irks me into that hopeful, walleyed state. I can't believe that sometimes I actually believe they'd be talking to me. So the only few things I could ever say were the words reflecting back onto me. The thing is when I speak there's no sound.Today though, I must have been especially lucky. Because today was the day My mirror was moved. Into some sort of museum I guess. Red paint splattered against the wall next to my corner, large linings of art. Murals Trailing alongside the Halls. I could see it all, but never really comment. There was a girl, wearing a thick black coat, and a tall Sexy man. He was slender, and held a defining Caramel eyed gaze.
His voice
There was something about his voice that willed me to follow. I felt my hands press gently onto the glass of my mirror as I lent forward. All the people have left the room. And it's just me Him and that girl. The girl seemed to be occupied with a clipboard in her hands. Her eyes scan over the solid surface, as the man stares into what feels like my waking soul.His voice was..somewhat muffled. I couldn't tell if it was my brain playing tricks on me, but I could swear his voice was Muffled. "I want to hear you." I mouthed, soon pathetically pressing my forehead against the glass.Suddenly his face melts, into that of a red marred alien like creature. I gasped- my breathes hitching. I went stiff, however my body told me otherwise. I didn't care about anything at this point. I didn't care about the voices in my head; protesting for me to stay.I didn't care about the fear in which rose beneath the surface of my skin when the skin on his face dispersed so quickly. I didn't even care, about the small box I was forced to live out my eternity in. I just wanted to touch him.To touch someone. To be able to feel as my hands press against something aside from glass.And just like magic, I felt my body seep through the surface. It felt like a pool of ice being thrown onto me. The sound reverberated through my skull. Along with pure audible sounds of screening slithering into earshot. "W-What in Dads name!" The tall man's red face suddenly vanishes.I look up in a daze. "Lucifer what's-" the girl finally takes notice of me after she moves over to the source of the sudden Loudness echoing through the Museum. "She's not supposed to be in here." She protests. I rush to my feet, trying to at least completely stand. But my ankles wobbled as I kept slipping on the white tiles. Soon the tall man I'm now referring to as 'the red man' clutches onto my forearm with a slightly concerned gaze.I opened my mouth to try and speak but was interrupted. "Ma'am no one's supposed to be in here, this Entire area is under investigation." She explains. I tilt my head, "investigation?" I tried to say, but the words could only fall from my Mouth- I just wouldn't exactly say them. I tried to speak again, but my voice...there was nothing. I grabbed my neck. I then turned around, "darling what are you staring at?" He questions, and my eyebrows twitch slightly. I point my hand over to the mirror- my Old home- which seems to have shattered on the floor. I run over to it and pick a piece of glass up. I take the piece of glass, and drag it across my arm. "Love! Are you trying to kill yourself I don't-" I interjected holding up my wrist
R M
E A
D N
I carved the words deep into my arm; bright vibrant lines painted. Then once they got the message the girl quickly yanks away the piece of glass, "so you're mute or?" "-you're refusing to speak?" The red man finished the girl's sentence. They exchange looks, and then the girl sighs. "Here. Use this to help communicate what you're trying to say." She says.I nod, trying to possibly understand what she's saying.
Home
I pointed over toward the broken mirror.
Red man
I then pointed at the tall man."Uh darling it's Lucifer. Oh yeah and this is detective decker"He corrects me, and I just nod along.
Can't speak
I sigh, and nod up and down profusely;Smiling. "Okay enough of this." He hisses, slowly approaching me.I stand stiff, and start up at him in a small daze."What is it you really wanted? Why are you really here hmm? What is your greatest desire?" He presses, i tilt my head in confusion, before losing my focus. I smiled and played with the long piece of fabric extending from his chest. I then took the weird pointy thing with the button at the end and started mashing the button over and over again. The girl looks at me puzzled. "Did you hear me? I said what is it you desire!" He growls, suddenly growing agitated. I tilted my head once more in confusion. I was going to say something when I soon felt weak in the knees.I found the floor to be growing larger and larger by the second, until my body finally collapsed. Bits of darkness slithered into my vision filling me with agitation.When My eyes fluttered open, I could only imagine, I had slipped into the embodiment of a cold nightmare. Or at least I thought.I rushed forward, hearing strange ringing noises; they hummed rhythmically; In sync with my heart beat. At this point I must have been mentally unstable considering the racing blood pulsing behind my ears.My breathes were hitched as I rose from the deathly scented bed."h-Home!!" the words must have slipped from my mouth, because I Heard an oddly familiar and slightly tone British voice chime in. " well I thought you said you couldn't speak."I turned my gaze over to the source of the voice, and face none other than Lucifer morningstar. Or as I- aside from the lingering voices in my head- the Red man."R-red man." i murmur in shock. "Come on, you can't play stupid with me!" He snarls. He approaches me cautiously. I flinch back at his sudden approach, which somehow places a long deviant smirk upon his face. "You can't play coy for long Darling. It's only a matter of time before I expose you for who you truly are." He spat through clenched teeth. His eyes held a tint of red. I cocked my head in response- out of sheer curiosity, I wound up poking myself in the eyes."Trying to scoop out our eyes now are we?" He retorts, recoiling back in seemingly honest yet stoic shock. "S-scoop." I say, mainly just because it is indeed a very funny word.Although I knew all of these...long, intelligent words; it felt like my mind was forbeying I say them. I could barely work out the words home or red man. "I am sorry." I say, finally. Wonderous of how I was able to say such things. "I am sorry darling." I try once more. I smile sheepishly.He sighs, looking to the ground in disappointment. "Now you're trying to steal My T-Thing!" he roars, then clutches his hands on my shirt.He pressed my back against the wall, which makes me surprised, but...not scared. I only looked confused, and somewhat dazed. "You! Tell me what you are!! I can sense something in you! Are you some sort of Celestial ghost?.Or an Angel sent by my father to kill me!" his face was mere inches away from mine. I reach my hand out, and caress his jawline. "No." I sigh.I then point to my reflection in some thick piece of glass that seemed to have grown into the wall. "Home." I exhale once more. He drops me- his Expression into a soft curious glimmer. I ran over the glass, which revealed my home. "H-home!!" I leap Into the glass, and feel my body collide with a cold bone cracking surface. He looks at me like I've completely lost it. "It didn't work." I hiss in pain, and complain allowed. "I've clearly, made a small mistake." he scoffed, and laces his fingers in his thick black hair."Do you think you can explain to me why you keep running into the glass darling?" I shook my head. "That is my home." I respond. "The glass is your home?" he trails off, brows knitted together in confusion. I only nod. "My words. Are they making of sense to you human?" I question the man. He tilts his head at that. "Well your "English" is a tad bit off, but I can understand you just fine.""Uh-um the okay." I look to the ground. "I'll try again." I turned and bolted towards the glass but was halted midair by a pear of arms locking around my elbows. "Okay, let's not keep Running into your reflection, darling it's obviously bad for your health."
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
(Your pov)You were just barely waking up. Rain had been pooring down against the roof, a sudden thump downstairs had jolted you awake. You had no clue whether or not day had broken through, after glancing through the window You noticed the streets were grey, and the clouds blocking the Rays of the sun made it nearly impossible to understand time.You took deep breathes, not exactly thinking about who it could be rather than what. You grabbed the first thing beside you, your coffee cup. "The devils nectur." Engraved on the side. You scramble down the stairs, a creek sounding near the kitchen. The sound of blood pulsing behind your ears, as well as the overwhelming thoughts sent you into slight panic. You hunch down behind the wall just a few steps away from the staircase, preparing yourself for the worst.You waited for the exact moment, you heard a magnetic clink, before slamming the cup into the wall and bolting over the corner. It was then you faced the devil himself. Almost literally...in your eyes at least. "LUCIFER!! I told you to stop COMING INTO MY HOUSE LIKE THAT." Lucifer only chuckles embracing you. At first you melted into his touch, but then you remembered you looked and felt like complete shit.You'd only been wearing a metallica T-short And light pink boy-shorts. You couldn't help but blush. "Lucifer! I'm not even ready-" his gaze softens to that of a smirk, "well don't I feel welcome." He scans your outfit drawing back, as well as the shattered coffee cup in your hand. "First you push me away and then you shatter the rather lovely gift I bought you. You're quite the little minx aren't you?" He teases you before pealing the piece of glass from your nervously sweaty palms, observing the cup closer. "Oh, Lucifer I-I'm so sorry, it's just- you scared me. I'm alone. In an apartment. This is basically the kill-zone for young defenseless girls.""(Y/N) I'm sorry to have spooked you, and i wouldnt call you entirely defenseless. After all you're dating the devil." He teases you, corresing your hand. He plants a soft yet compassionate kiss on your hand, his Thick pools of black Gazing at you with love as well as concern. You blush and turn away, smiling softly."you haven't come into work in at least two days, and if I know you. That's practically an eternity." He quirks an eyebrow gesturing for you to explain. You rolled your eyes, meandering toward the fridge. You place the broken glass in the waste paper basket oblivious to the access glass. Grabbing a bottle of tequila, and a couple shot glasses from the cabinet you turn to face him with a fake smile, "life's just been crazy for me. Wanna drink on it?" He smiles at that. On your way through the door you suddenly felt an overwhelming pain pierce the tips of your left foot. Hissing you cursed allowed, "S-Son of a-""(Y/N!) Your a bloody clutz, let me help you with that."He rushes to the cabinet. You found yourself quite amazed that he'd actually listened to you about where the first aid kit was. Despite the hole "I'm immortal I can't die," bit; it actually seemed like throughout the past 6 years of "being" him he'd started valuing his life alot more. You had so many questions, lingering about your mind about this strange relationship. You had no clue what the two of you really were. 'Together? Friends with benifits? A couple without a lable? Would any one consider us A couple at all? We couldn't really be friends...friends don't have sex.' You thought to yourself in sorrow. You had no clue why this was affecting you now. Of all times .In fact for some reason all of this hadnt decided to pick away at your thoughts until a few weeks ago, but for some reason that's all you could stress about for the past few months. You felt like....like maybe he'd been using you? You found it odd that you were suddenly thrown into some sort of rutt. That's never been like you. But you tried not to question it. You didn't know what else to do. And you had no clue why someone like him would dare giving you the time of day. "Are you sure you're alright love? You haven't been talking very much." You glance down at him then to the bandage he'd long finished wraping around the arc of you foot, noticing you've been spaced out for a minute too long- meanwhile he's going all the work- gathering the shards of glass in hand, with a slightly dumbfounded expression. "Uh, W-Wha? Oh Sorry!" You immidiately rush to collect the broom and dust pan from the closet in the kitchen.After cleaning up the mess lucifer Turns to face you. "why dont we go out for a drink? I know a place with one of the most beautiful view known In los Angeles." You smile then run to grab your purse, "oh please (y/n) don't worry about your wallet." He scoffs taking your hand. "Oh lucifer you don't have to do all that." He shushed you soothing. "I know I don't have to, I want to. In fact I insist. Besides it's about time you've gotten out of this wretched cramped place. It's a miracle you've managed to survive in something so small and depressing-" as he continues rambling on- following closely behind you. The old wooden floorboards creak against each step the both of you took. The two of you eventually end up in your room. He's the only one you're used to being around so of course you're even used to changing in front of him. You grab the first think you see in your dressor, which just happens to be a small dark Midrif tank top, along with a pair of midnight black leggings. (Pic all the way above)You slip off your Comfy clothes, oblivious to lucifer admiring your mesmerizing beauty. You throw on Some Casual clothes, in hopes of disguising this sickening empty feeling inside.
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
( Your Pov)Despite the feelings you held for lucifer, as well as the generosity he's bestowed greatly upon you-You found yourself lost in thought, processing the events Of this week.You sat at the bar, as Lucifer continues rambling on, about something. Until of course you wandered off into space- before latching On to a sudden realisation.You don't think you've ever really acted like this before...You've never exactly been the kind of person to Shy away from everyone; shutting people out for long periods of time. You've just felt sick to your stomach...and emotional.You couldn't drink- at this rate you knew you'd be Throwing up in no time.You knew it wasn't because the lack of intimacy between you and Lucifer; I mean it's not like you two are actually together..right? So why would it bother you so much?You couldn't help but wonder...when was the last time you two had sex, or in His case- "did the nasty."?Your thoughts gently graze the topic of pregnancy. Most people in your family Couldn't have children- meaning the vast majority of you aside from your mom Weren't fertal in anyway..so why would you?Though it's said that having a child, can actually bring two people together- howeverIn some other scenario that's not the case. Arguing as a Couple In hopes of communicating with one another- in front of a child.Our child.What kind of mother would you be if you allowed something so vague to Exist in such a terrible life."(Y/n)?? Is something the matter, love? you've been sitting in silence the entire time.." lucifer Flashes a slightly concerned expression.You shook yourself from The sea of thoughts Consuming your mind, "w-What? Oh um. Sorry I guess I've been sort of in my own world." You smile sheepishly, before Mentally glancing back at the overwhelming pile of Stress Clogging your mind.You decided you'd Pick up a pregnancy test on the way home. You were worried about lucifer Getting involved so, you didn't say anything about it- throwing yourself back into the conversation."So um. How was work without me?..Probably a mess considering the major Lack of organization at the Precinct." He smiles at that, Taking a sip. "You know it. Ella's been tormenting herself trying to track down lead after lead- running herself ragged while chloe's run off dad knows where." He exhales "usually you're there to guide her."Your gaze falls to the Floor. guilt washing over you- a small twinge of pain surging through your body.Small movement Streams around your stomach, starting to grow light headed and queasy. "-uh lucifer. I-I've had a nice time with you but I really need to go." With that- like a deer being chased down By a Rabid swamp tigerTrying in all your power to ignore his Call to stay, or wait You bolt down the staircase throwing your hands over your mouth- everything You've eaten In the past day Practically tore through you. Rushing past mazikeen- you fled through the door, finding strange relief in the trash can I'm the street.After hunching over and throwing up for What felt like 15 bloody minutes. You, felt gross and decided to disperse past the sea of Disgusted shocked, and worried civilians.It was shocking the way you'd left lucifer like that- almost adgitating. Though lucifer knows How you get sometimes; you almost Never want to be alone, which worried him.He was going to chace after you, but Was distracted by mazikeen'sSudden death threats. After Nudging past her- So many people had been pooring into the lux that after he'd finally Made it Down the staircase You Were completely out of sight.Lucifer soon sighs In defeat, and meanders back into the lux to down a few more drinks and fiddle with the piano a little bit before hustling to sleep.On your way home You felt gross; despite that you forced yourself into the nearest dollar store. On your way inside luck suddenly Nipped you in the back- literally feeling a light tap on your spine- you turn to face a shocked ella."(Y/N)? Girl, you Should've been at work today!! I almost DIED without you!!!-" you roll your eyes at that, but Soon movement Rushes through your stomach.She scans you up and down. "Oh my God, girl are you okay??" You Move your hands away from your mouth; in hopes of fitting a word in edgewise. "I-I'm fine, I just..." You were going to tell her the truth but...then you thought about how horrible she was at keeping secrets...You then immidiately take in your surroundings, trying to find the simplest excuse you could find thankfully coming across the Posters around the pharmacy. "Well??" She presses further cupping her Hands on your Shoulders, Trying to grab your attention."I'm...SICK yes I'm Really really-" you trail off growing a tad bit light headed. You lean on the nearest Object for support. "-Sick. And I'm...picking up..medicine??" You trail off.She quirks an eyebrow, "well there's no reason I can't help you find what you're Looking for." You narrow your eyes in suprise, "Oh you don't have to do that-""Uhh, yeah I do. I'm your best friend- don't you fucking forget that." I sigh in defeat.You guys Loiter around the Pharmacy, until you finally come across The area, where the pregnancy tests as well as other awkward Feminin products are located. You think of a great excuse, and just go for it, "hey Ella, would you go ask the pharmacist where the- uh... Advil Is? I can't seem to remember." She smiles "hell yeah I did say I'd stay and help." With that ella rushes over to the counter, and As soon as you catch notice of That face she usually makes when she's trying to flirt- you grab the Cheapest one you could find.When she Rushes back over You only smile and nudge it behind your back hoping she won't see anything.Luckily you were able to keep it hidden until you two went over to the self check out.It was immediate as well as surprising for you. You were already feeling Sick, so eventually you began spacing out. As you placed the only Two products you were planning on purchasing on the table in oblivion you hear Ella gasp."O-Oh My s-SHIT you think you're-" "S-SSHHH THIS IS-" you soon realised your voice had been raised higher than hers. But then fatigue had managed to Yank your body Down a notch, causing you to sink against the counter. "Its not...it's not what it looks like. I-I just." You only pay the machine with a hardened and sorrowful expression.Ella exchanges that With a look of pity and remorse. You narrow your eyes."Look. I don't need your pity. Okay? I love the shit out of you- you're a great friend. I just can't deal with this right now." You were going to Rush out of the store until she placed her hand on your shoulder."(Y/n) no one should have to go through something like this alone." She Embraces you, which makes you feel slightly relieved- however slightly uncomfortable.Then again that's just Ella for you.
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
(Your pov)Going into work today was something You never thought You'd be able to accomplish. Especially Considering The outcome of Your throwdown with Ella the previous night.Ella has always been the type of person to be nosy. Sometimes- she's even a bit over baring.But You think it's safe to say that she felt Grateful to to Her for being so sympathetic in your hour of need.And you left it at that.AcceptYou kind of didn't.You thought about the conversation you two had last night.In fact- you'd dwell on that So Much- you grew overwhelmingly nauseous.You thought about the Positive pregnancy test Still lying In the Ziploc bag in your Dresser at home.(Flashback)You and Ella Were in the floor of your bedroom. You- being torn in half mentally- at the thought of Pregnancy; your head lies against Ella's shoulder as she Holds you tight."Whose the lucky father?" Ella coax's your answer out- straightening you back up. "I think..." your thoughts wonder. You shuffle through your past Boyfriends- as well as The random one-night stans you've commit to. But it doesn't take long for you to remind yourself You've been with lucifer for such a long time.You decided You'd answer her question with another question. Sure Ella may practically gun down this "response question"- with suspicion. But this Was something you really needed advice on. It wasn't The wrong question, but wasn't necessarily the right question either."Do you think Lucifer...would want kids?" Crap, way to throw a subtle question you thought to yourself. She blinks, flashing a slightly bewildered expression. "honestly...his intake on children scares me."My heart sinks, and she Recollects What she'd just said, guilt washing over her face. "B-But I'm Sure he would be thrilled..to have A chance at becoming a dad...he obviously has a Huge soft spot for you. I-I mean he never stops talking about you. And More than just your sex life. "Your cheeks Burn Vibrantly; a defeaning hue of crimson red.She placed her right hand on your shoulder. "Look...I don't know very much about this type of thing. But no matter the choice you make; I'm going to support you.""Are you going to tell him?" She asks. Just then you felt A twinge of pain in your chest(Flashback end)You found yourself shaking your mind of the sea of thoughts drowning you.You thought about the Look of sympathy Ella gave you. And the tears you Wept; amongst Ella's shoulder.You'd dwell on the previous night so long that you didn't notice The sudden tap on your shoulder As you Entered the precinct; in sheer oblivion of your surroundings."Woah, (Y/N) Sorry about that I wasn't Paying attention." You stopped; faintly acknowledging the pressence of A flustered detective dan Standing in front of you. Realising he Had accidentally Rammed himself into you- you Heave a Dry sigh; trying to swollow back the morning nausea beckoning for yet another embarrassing release.You gaze back up At Dan, "Uhh, is lucifer in yet? I wanted to maybe talk to him about something." Anxiety swells up in your heart. You anxiously play with the rim of your coat- the darkened green one you threw over the pair of jeans and white t-shirt after Throwing up all over your other work outfits for this morning."I dont know. He might be." With that he shoves past you- a worrisome crease Appearing across his forehead.You only continue your path to your office- stuck in a daze. Should I tell him? Should I even make the effort??? I can't just assume he'd be the dad can i?Your thoughts wonder, as you Go into your office- the one you share with your most trusted bff ella. Files were strown all over the place. organization Had clearly Been torn into shambles as soon as you decided to Take an early work vacation.It felt like lucifer had only been over exaggerating when he told you about Ella losing her mind Over lost files. You only half believed that. But somewhere deep within your mind you knew- Ella really needed you.You let out a sigh; drenching Your thoughts in Guilt. You wander around your office Organizing bits and pieces of The office. After Scanning every stray Photo you placed each of them in the correct folders- placing them In the filing cabinet.You chuckled Finding a picture of Ella and her brother in some old junkyard filled with cards. Despite Ella's drab nature; you knew she Had morals, and this Photo was definetely one of them.Of course not the photo itself- but There most certainly had to have been a moral behind the story of this photo. So you cleaned it off, and found a picture frame. You placed it on the counter.You cleaned up all the forensics tools. Placing every item in its home- in Alphabetical order. Just for fun You Did the same with all the files, placing each folder on its home-in the filing cabinet- as well.You Gaze around the area, in awe at your work. You didnt like admitting it much, but you loved Cleaning. The thought of taking something And making it look beautiful again made you happy. Secretly; you were Excited for Ella to get here. And were slightly hopeful that she'd acknowledge your work.You eventually sigh, proud of yourself. Despite such a prideful warmth filling your stomach- you were still pregnant. And it didn't really take much for your hitched yet patterned breathes to form into gags.You Run over to the waste paper basket In the corner of the room; clenching both sides- and hurl into it.After what felt like a small eternity, you stagger over to the tissues before Wiping your mouth. You grab another to wipe the sweat off your forehead.You exhale hoping lucifer Came in at some point. Of course he doesn't exactly get paid to do what he does, but that's not the point. At least not in his perspective. Lucifer has always believed that punishing people for committing evil crimes- is his own way of doing his part in the world.Despite his hole, "I'm the Devil" schtick; lucifer has always been a Good man. 5/10 his heart's in the right place when he's making a decision about something...but you had no clue how he'd make a decision on Having a child.Would he even want to stay with you; and see how his child Turns out to be when he grows up?Ella eventually waltzes into the room; another body is brought in- littered in stab wounds. It was almost enough to Make you hurl once again for what felt like the millionth time in a row for one day."Hey girl hey, another body just dropped, literally." Soon she takes a good look at the room in slight awe, before Sprinting over to embrace you. "Oh god I missed you." You chuckle- swallowing back the nauseous lump in your throat."How you holdin up?" You throw her An annoyed yet slightly relieved gaze. Your mind held a suprisingly Still silence. Usually at this point you can stir up a few Stressful thought clouds; although with Ella's presence- today they were Evedently silent."Well Aside from the morning sickness my life's been just dandy." You bitterly respond slightly gritting your teeth. Her gaze falls onto your hands digging into your sides. Almost clawing them."Oh my God, are you okay?" She runs over to the cabinets to pluck free some forensics equipment to patch you up. You stare at the blood Harmonizing Against your Bland skin tone. You could only hope lucifer was having A better time than you were at this point. (Time skip)After work, you couldn't help but stress yourself ragged over Lucifer. You knew he'd came into work today. Hell, you even heard his voice Just outside the office As you and Ella Went over the file of The victim, but you never once tried to acknowledge it.You had been dealing with far too much lately.Despite that, you realised, maybe you should at least give him the benefit of the doubt and at least try to tell him.You didn't know how he was going to react, but you've been dwelling on that ever since you've figured out you were pregnant-You figured you were never going to be able to get rid of this Weight on your shoulders, unless you made some effort to relieve it right?You bitterly push yourself into the lux. You ignore the ear splitting Beat of the music- along with the scent of liquor toying withyour nausea.For some reason though, you footsteps would echo back. Within your Mind- held a hymn of repetitive Knocks against a hardwood floor.By the time you made it to his room, you heard his voice. And the words his voice would form..made your heart sink.
