Crowley/Lucifer FanFiction

Discharged

**************Grace's POV*********

The next day, Sam and Dean visited me in hospital. They both looked a little battered and bruised.

"Hey, are you guys OK?" I asked concerned

"We're holding up." Dean attempted to joke, "Cas healed us as best he could without running out of juice."

"Thank you for risking your lives to save her." I thanked them,

"Just another day in the life of the Winchesters," Sam joked, only it was true.

"Listen, we don't want to beat around the bush," Dean started. "we came here because we need you to know what happened."

"I'm just happy Lily is safe," I told them. "The How's and why's can wait until everyone is fit."

"Grace, I'm not sure this can wait," Sam sighed, my body tingled with anxiety at his words.

"Ok...." I replied."What happened?"

Sam proceeded to tell me how Lily had gone missing and the way Lucifer reacted at the fairground.

"He killed innocent people?" I asked, devastated that he wasn't the man I thought he was. I was disgusted that I could love someone capable of that. Terrified that he was currently looking after my child.

"So many innocent people, Grace," Sam sighed. "It was a massacre."

"He was a mess," Dean added. "He was sobbing on the ground with the bodies lying around him. He claimed he couldn't even remember doing it."

"He was worried about how you would react," Sam continued, "kept saying you would never forgive him."

"I don't know what to say, what to think, how to feel," I stuttered. "This is a lot to process."

"What is there to process Grace?" Dean exclaimed. "He's proving he's still the same monster. He's still capable of devilish things."

"Did he show remorse?" I asked, clinging on to any hope of this being a tragic accident, a mistake

"Only that you would find out," Sam sighed.

As the devastating news sank in, my heart plummeted, and a mix of shock, anger, and sadness washed over me. I struggled to find the right words, my voice trembling as I finally spoke,

"I... I don't know what to say. This changes everything. How could I have been so blind?"

"It's OK, Grace," Sam replied. "He had us all fooled,"

"Not me," Dean disagreed. "I knew he couldn't just stop being the devil,"

"Dean!" Sam scolded."Maybe now isn't the time for I told you so's"

"Right," Dean blushed "sorry Grace"

"Where is he right now?" I asked, panic setting in as I anticipated their answer.

"At the bunker with Lily," Sam told me.

My heart skipped a beat at the realisation that Lucifer was alone with Lily. That Id trusted him to raise her, trusted him to mould her into a good person. How could I have been so naive.

Panic flooded my veins, and a surge of protectiveness consumed me. I needed to confront him. But most importantly, I needed to protect my daughter from him.

Without thinking, I began pulling the canula's from my body and climbed out of bed.

"Grace, what are you doing!" Dean exclaimed.

"I can't stay here whilst he's responsible for my daughter," I told them,

"Grace, you're in no fit state to leave the hospital," Sam scolded. "Me and Dean can handle Lucifer."

"No," I snapped. "I will not ask you to do that," I told them. "I will not risk anyone else's safety because of my poor judgement."

"Grace, please, let's think about this," Dean pleaded

"I've thought about it," I snapped. "I'm going to self discharge and get home to my daughter."

"You're not well enough," Sam tried to reason with me. "You still have healing to do,"

"I can heal later," I hissed. "Right now, we need to confront the devil and protect my daughter."

The drive to the bunker was too long. I was desperate to see Lily and protect her from Lucifer's true colours.

"Gracie!" Lucifer smiled as we let ourselves in and approached him in the library.

"Where's Lily?" I asked, ignoring the arms he held open for me.

"She's still asleep," he told me, his face that of confusion. "Is everything ok?"

"No, Lucifer, everything is not OK!" I hissed."You need to leave, "

"Gracie, what are you talking about?" He asked, confused

"She knows Lucifer," Sam told him

"You can cut the act," Dean scoffed

Lucifers eyes widened, and he looked terrified.

"Grace, let me explain," he pleaded

"There's nothing to explain, Lucifer." I cut him off. "I know the facts."

"It's not what you think," he stuttered. "I didn't mean to."

"Lucifer, I trusted you. I naively believed that you had changed, that you had the ability to be good. But I was wrong, you're not the man I thought you were, you're not the man I was falling for, that man was not capable of massacring an entire fairground. I won't let you hurt anyone else. Especially not my daughter. "

"Grace, please," he begged. "I would never hurt Lily, or you! I lost control, I'd lost Lily, and I couldn't control my emotions. That's not me anymore. That's not who I am. Not who I want to be. " I shook my head, so he continued to plead his case."I know I've made mistakes, Grace. But I swear, I'll do whatever it takes to earn back your trust and protect Lily. Please, give me a chance to show you that I have changed."

"I've heard it all before Lucifer," I snapped. "I can't risk you breaking another promise now that there's another person to consider. You're the devil. It's time I accepted that"

My words hit him like a slap in the face. Part of me regretted every one of them. But it was a small part. The same small part that believed everything he said and wanted to hold him, tell him everything was OK, that we'd get through this. But that part of me wasn't a mom.

"You can't keep her from me" was the only thing he said before evaporating.

Hey guys!

So Grace knows the truth! What do you think about the way she reacted?

I know a lot of you ship Grace and Lucifer. So don't worry, there will be an opportunity for them to choose a path back to one another in the future....she just might stop off somewhere else along the way 😜.

Lots of love xxxxxxxx
