A Devil of a Lover (Lucifer X Reader)

Chapter 3: A lovers' argument

(Y/N's p.o.v.)
It had been a while since Lucifer came to me for the storm. I sang and danced in the kitchen as I cleaned. I was a Michael Jackson fan and I liked quite a bit of his songs, so i was listen to Remember the time. I swept the floor and danced and sway to the song. My foot slipt and I fell back. Instead of falling on the floor, I was caught in someone's arms. I looked up and saw Lucifer. He looked down at me, an eyebrow raised.
" Is falling a partt of your dancing in the human world?"
" Is being rude part of being a king in hell?"
He cracked a smile and stood me up.
" Fair. I came to check in like normal. Where are your parents?"
" Still gone."
" How long do they stay gone.
" Months at a time."
Jessabell batted at his foot. He picks her up and crables her in one arm, petting her head with his free hand.
" I suppose I can stay....for a bit. Hell is quite boring right now that the extermination day is over."
" Extermination day? Whats that?"
" Heaven only lets so many souls in at a time, so hell gets cramped full. So to keep it empty, the warrior angels come to hell and kill the demons to make room for more souls."
I looked at him shocked.
" I...thought-!"
" Heaven was an understanding, kind place? HA! You don't have to believe me if you want, but not everything you hear is true."
I looked down then slowly looked at him.
" You said you were married. Whats your wife's name?"
" Lilith. I have a daughter named Charlotte, but she prefers Charlie."
" Oh yeah? What does she do?"
Lucifer pinches the brigde of his nose.
" She is running a hotel to try and get demons into heaven. A redemption center of sorts. I don't understand her obsession with that place."
" Well.....I think its a good idea, though, I may not be looking at it the same way she is."
He turned to me. " How so?"
" Well, you said there were extermination days, so wouldn't it be helpful to have them redeemed then to have them slaughtered. It take worry off of you and show heaven that anyone can change."
He raises an eyebrow. " Basically making the angels eat their words."
" Pretty much. Well, thats if its possible."
He chuckles. " I never thought of it like that."
We talk for a bit. " So, do you know how to do the waltz?"
" Of course."
" Can you teach me?"
He looked at me. " You know you'd be dancing with the devil."
I shrugged. He wrapped his arm around my waist and he put one of my arms around his neck. He took one of my hands into his.
" Now, the most important thing about the waltz, it to stay relaxed. Just follow my lead and down look at the ground."
I nodded then we started. I tried to not look at the floor, i was worried I'd step on his toes. He smiles as we both quietly swayed.
" Not bad for a beginner."
I smiled then hesitantly laid my head on his shoulder. He tenses slightly but continued to sway. After the dance he pulled away. He cleared his throat and bowed slightly.
" Good job."
" It probably would have been better if we had music."
He smiled and nodded.
" True. It probably would be."
He stays a bit longer then leave. I sigh and Jessabell looks up at me. She snuggles my leg.
" He.....seemed nicer today."
She meows. I smiled down at her, then look back up at the ceiling. He was warm and he smelt like appel pie. I walk around the house and looked at the time. It wasn't too late. I lay on the couch and lay around bored.

(Lucifer's p.o.v.)
I walk around the palace and see the ballroom. I walk in and look around. We barely use it here. I could almost hear the music play and I swayed to the melody. I smiled softly and I could almost see (Y/N) in front of me in a beautiful dress as I spin her around. I blink and shake my head.
" No, you're married." I mumbled.
I go to see charlie and walk to her silly hotel. I knock on the door and wait. She answers and looks at me in shock.
" D-Dad."
" Charlo-!" I clear my throat. " Charlie.... can we talk?"
She nodded and let me in. " Charlie....i said some things that were......hurtful, and I shouldn't have. I'm sorry.....and if you're serious about this hotel thing, I'll support you."
Tears built in her eyes and she hugged me.
" Thank you dad."
I hugged her back and i smiled.
" If you need me, don't hesitate to call."
She nodded and i left, headed home. I walked in, a smile on my face. Lilith saw me and walked over.
" Dear, are you okay?"
" Im great. I went and saw Charlie. We talked things out."
She looked at me, shocked.
" You did? Who convinced you to do that?"
" A.....friend."
She raises an eyebrow. " A friend? Lucifer you don't have friends."
I turn to her. " That was rather hurtful."
" You don't. You have business partners that's it. Is this "friend" in the human world?"
" What are you implying?"
Lilith looks at the ground. " You don't have much to do with me anymore, Lucifer."
" Oh Lilith, come on. Maybe I'm done with my realm looking like a circus act and I wanna fix it! Maybe I wanna fix the broken relationship with my daughter! Its not always about you!"
I froze and look at her. She stood there, silent, a single tear rolling down her cheek as she glared at me.
" I got damned with you, I gave up a paradise for you."
" Dont you think i know that! I gave up my home for you, my family threw me out cause I wanted to be with you! You cant honestly think I forgot that, did you!? So don't you dare hold that over my head!"
Her eyes go black and she snaps.
" Why don't you go back to that "friend" in the human realm then, you useless angel!"
My heart broke. She gasps and covers her mouth.
" L-Lucifer.....i-i didnt-!"
" No. You did mean to say that, and I think i will go see my friend, since I'm clearly not wanted here."
I then leave, heading to the human world. When I was safely in (Y/N's) home, I looked for her.
" (Y/N) are you here?"
I walked into the livingroom and saw her turn to me.
" Lucifer?" She ru s her eyes and looks at the time.
" Its midnight. What are you doing....here."
She got up and walked over me.
" Whats wrong? Why are you crying?"
I slowly brought a hand to my cheek and touched it. I felt my tears and I slowly looked at her.
" M-My wife and I got....into a fight."
She sat me down and sat next to me.
" Tell me what happened."
I did as told, how I talked to Charlie to fix our relationship, and how Lilith and I fought.
" Im so sorry....did....she really call you that?"
I nodded and looked down. " I was called that by the others in heaven..."
" Lucifer, I dont know your wife or how your relationship with her is, but.....that counts as verbally abuse."
I tense then look at her.
" you can't say soemthing that's a trigger, that will hurt someone, and it be okay."
" (Y/N)....can you.....hold me?"
A light blush crossed her cheeks and she hugged me tight. I trembled and clung to her as i tried to calm myself down.
" You can stay here til things cool down between you two."
I thank her and we lay on the couch.
" I thought you said not to get use to this." She smirked.
I chuckled and held her tighter.
" I changed my mind. Goodnight, dear."
" Night."
