Deckerstar Oneshots: Book Two

Sorry To Bother You

Lux was always packed. This was nothing new. Chloe had found some sort of comfort from being in the club. Maybe it was the loud music, or the smell of alcohol mixed with sweat, but some part of it reminded her of Lucifer. So whenever he got busy with the books, or helping bar tend because they were short staffed, or even wanting to play piano for the clubs pleasure, she found herself in the club watching him work.

He always knew she was there, she told him so, but it never caused him to have to forfeit his duties. That was the great thing about Chloe, she not only accepted his job, but embraced and encouraged it. Tonight was no different. At least once a month he would go down just to talk to guests and make them feel welcomed. Chloe was there, but she had brought Ella because as Ella said 'You're boyfriend owns a club, I need to party, you're taking me.' The music blasted and the girls were sitting at a table talking.

"Why'd you force me to drag you out of the house?" Chloe asked.
"I dont know, I needed a distraction I guess."
Chloe nodded, "I get that."

A redhead walked up to their table with her friends and tapped on Chloe's shoulder.

"Excuse me?" The redhead asked.

Chloe turned to look at her before responding.

"Yeah?"
"Hi, sorry to bother you, we were just wondering if you knew where Lucifer is?"
Chloe cocked her head, "Uh, why?"
"Oh, well a few years back I had a one night stand with him, it was a lot of fun, and I was hoping to show my friends that same good time."
"Yeah, I hate to break it to you, but Lucifer won't be sleeping with any of you."
"Oh, hun falling for him and trying to scare us away is just sad. Now, where is he?"

Chloe's jaw dropped and she let out a half assed chuckle.

"Okay, no. He won't sleep with you because he's in a relationship. I would know, I'm his girlfriend."
The redhead paused for a second, "You're the girlfriend?" She crinkled her nose, "Really?"

The redheads friends laughed.

"Yes really."
"Yeah, no offense, but if you're the person Lucifer decided to settle down with, then I'm the queen of England."

Chloe's faced dropped to an unimpressed stare.

"You have got thirty seconds to leave before I call security."
"Like security would listen to you."

Her friends chuckled again. Chloe turned to the bar and made eye contact with one of the mixologists. She snapped her fingers and gestured to the girl and her friends. The mixer nodded and radioed someone to grab them, and a minute later the group of girls were thrown out to the side walk. Ella laughed once they had left.

"I didn't know you had so much power here."
"I didn't either, I just took an educated guess."
"Why don't you talk to Lucifer about them. I'm sure they aren't the only ones who bother you about it."
"He's busy enough, I don't wanna worry him."

Ella shook her head.

"You wouldn't worry him, he probably wants to know." Chloe was still unconvinced. Ella sighed. "Okay Decker, I'm gonna head home. Thanks for this. We should do it again soon."
"Yeah, bye!"

Once Ella left, Chloe headed upstairs to the penthouse. Lucifer watched her leave, and soon followed. The calm of the apartment felt good to Chloe. She loved the breeze that blew in the ocean sent, and the cool feeling of the wind in her hair. She was staring over the city when Lucifer approached behind her.

"Hey," he started, "you feeling okay?"
"Yeah, it's just... I don't want to sound like a bitch, or like a jealous, territorial girlfriend, but your past flings keep coming up to me and it's starting to piss me off."
"What do they say?"
"Things like 'you're too ugly to be his girlfriend' or 'really? he chose you?' or the occasional 'lying looks ugly on everyone sweetheart.'"

The disdain in that last word really shined through her voice. Lucifer moved closer and pulled her into a hug.

"If it bothers you so much, why didn't you tell me in the first place?"
"Because I should be able to handle it on my own. They aren't harmful, it just pisses me off that I feel like I'm back in high school constantly."

Lucifer nodded, before letting go of Chloe and walking towards the elevator.

"Lucifer, where are you going?"
"My girlfriends upset, I'm gonna fix it."
"No, babe-"

The elevator closed. L.A. was busy at night. The girls who had been kicked out were predictable, they spent forever trying to get back in. Lucifer made his way to the front where he found them trying to argue their case to a bouncer. When the redhead saw him she smiled and dragged her friends over to him.

"Oh thank god you're here. You remember me right?"
"Yes, Dana."
"Fantastic, tell this guard that I shouldn't have been thrown out. I don't even know how that blonde bitch managed to do it, I mean honestly to lie about dating you and then-" Lucifer cut her off.
"You're going to leave her alone."
"What?"
"The blonde one? My girlfriend. You're going to leave her alone, and if you catch anyone else I've slept with bad mouthing her, you're going to tell them to shut up, or I will ban them from Lux and have Maze hunt them down."
"I-"
"This isn't a negotiation."

The redhead went quiet before continuing.

"Right. I didn't realize-"
"That I'd fallen in love? Most people who don't know me haven't."
"Sorry. We'll be headed home now."
"Yes, you will."

Dana and her friends nodded before turning to leave. Lucifer sighed before reentering the club and going back up to the apartment. Chloe was staring at him when he walked in.

"You didn't have to tell them off like that."
"How'd you-"
"The balcony over looks the entrance."
"Right. But you couldn't hear me."
"I just assumed."
Lucifer smiled. "No one should bother you anymore. If they do send them to me, or Maze. We'll take care of it."
"I don't want you to feel like you have to though."
"You shouldn't have to deal with it in the first place. It's my fault you do, so I will fix it."

Chloe smiled before hugging Lucifer tightly. She looked up at him and kissed him. He smelled of Lux, and she felt at home.

"I love you so much." She said after she'd pulled away.
"I love you too."
"Can we go to bed?"
"Anything you want my love."
