Saving Lucifer

He's Not Me

After fighting like hell to get the guys to allow Lucifer at the house, we were all sitting in the living room. He was on the floor playing blocks with both of the kids. Azriel had seemed to take to him quickly, calling him Unc.

"He knows that's not Cas?" Dean asked when he heard Azriel call him Unc.

"You'd be surprised at what these two know. He did conjure up a vial of his grace as a newborn." Gabriel answered.

"I think he knew this was going to happen." I said mainly to myself as I thought back to Azriel saying 'Daddy safe. Unc save.' Did he know Lucifer was going to be the one to save Castiel?

Abigail squealed when Lucifer walked into the house with us. She yelled 'Daddy' and ran to him, jumping in his arms. Even though it was Castiel that I was seeing, I could see just how happy Lucifer was being able to hold his daughter again.

Jody went home to check on Bobby when we arrived, something about him gutting rooms for no reason.

"I'll try to get him over here. I'm sure when he hears you're back safely, he'll want to see you." She said before she hugged me and walked out the front door.

"Ange, could you come here for a moment?" Sam asked as he walked off towards his room.

Rising to my feet, I followed him, waiting to get yelled at. Once we were in his room, he closed the door.

"Really? The only one you're keeping out is Dean. If the other two wanted to hear us, they could."

Ignoring me, he pulled me into his arms and held me tight. We stood like that, quiet, no words were spoken for a few moments. When he pulled away, he quickly wiped his face.

"Sam?"

"I'm sorry about earlier. I'm so happy you're back and I don't want us starting off fighting. It's just... Are you sure about this thing with Lucifer?"

"Sam, listen, I understand that you loathe the man. I used to as well. Believe me, I'm the one who killed the guy. But honestly, I believe he's changed."

He raised an eyebrow, ready to debate.

"Can the devil really change?"

"You have a baby and tell me it won't change your life."

He didn't reply to my comment, only shrugged his shoulders.

"Look, if you're not comfortable with this, we can set up a room in the garage for him."

Laughing, he shook his head and looked at me.

"Do you honestly think Dean would let him near Baby? Besides, I think if he's going to be staying with us, it's best if he's close-by so we can keep an eye on him."

"I don't think that's necessary, but if it makes you feel better, he won't argue."

"You really do trust him, don't you?"

"I do."

After I made Sam and Dean dinner, Dean said he was turning in.

"I trust you will be sleeping alone." he looked at me sternly.

Rolling my eyes in response, I turned back to Azriel and handed him his car back.

"Ange."

"Yes, Dean, I'll be in my room, alone. Besides, Gabe's room is before mine, do you honestly think he's letting anyone by?"

"Nope. And I don't plan on sleeping." Gabriel chimed in.

Shaking my head, I stood and carried Azriel to the nursery.
