"Lucifer! What is your problem? You don't wake up a new mother after she bears her husband's children for 9 months straight only to be torn apart in two like this! Unless the hospital was on fire and our twins are endangered." Chloe grumbled with such irritability and out of grogginess of being woken up. What was he doing back here didn't he say when she would wake up?

"Sorry, love, I didn't mean to wake you up. I didn't realise you were still sleeping. I've just come back to give the nurses the twins for a bath." Lucifer said apologetically, his British accent filled through the room

"Oh. Okay. Can I go back to sleep then?" She asked her eyes dropping heavily once more.

"Of course you can."

"Ah, ah, ah!" Chloe catches Lucifer's hand before the new father of two twins went over and looks at her with those soulful dark brown eyes of his, that reminds her very often of creamy chocolate; the type that just melts in the hot sun, both filled with sweetness and desirability.

"What?" He questioned unsure what she wanted from him. His wife gestured to her cheek waiting for him to kiss it.

"Kiss please." Her beloved husband leans over and kisses her cheek, she knew something was off with him, but she immediately put it to exhaustion, his hand goes down past her waist... down her legs and... "Babe!" She exclaimed at the unwanted attention to her pelvic floor area and smacks his hand.

"What? Not in the mood?"

"I just had the twins. You know I can't have sex for six weeks. Lucifer.... it doesn't matter how much I want you, because I really do, but my body needs time to heal after something so traumatic."

"Fine. Your loss." Lucifer withdrew his hand away from her. "I'm going to take the twins one at a time.

"Okay." Chloe turned on her side facing away from him. Why was he was acting so weird?

"Hey, you okay?" He asked her.

"Mm."

"Come on. Talk to me."

"Lay off! I'm tired." Lucifer scoffed and took one twin, but the moment he did, Leo started crying and he makes his way out when she called him. "Lucifer... wait... I'm sorry... I didn't mean to snap at you like that." Chloe apologised immediately feeling bad about her reaction.

"It's okay. Like you said you're tired and I did come into your space, waking you up, and I'm so sorry for that." The detective frowned and couldn't help but think to herself since when Lucifer was so... goody-goody? Hm... sus

"Are you sucking up to me just because I'm in a bad mood?"

"Okay, yeah, I am, a little bit." Chloe sighs relieved thinking her sweetheart had changed for a moment. "I'm sorry. I wouldn't want to do anything to make you irritable. I love you... you know that right?"

"Of course I do. I love you too."

"I'll let you rest now."

"Thanks... hey? When you come back can you tuck me under your strong arms?"

"Sure, love." Chloe drowsily watches Lucifer walk through the door and if she had been awake enough she would've seen the slightest hunch to one side as if injured from a wound that had never quite healed. What seemed like a long while she heard him come back again.
