I woke up in my bed. Or, what I thought was my bed. My room… It looked different. Something was off. “Hello?” I called out, sitting up. I screamed at the top of my lungs at what I saw.
Lucifer’s body was mutilated on the ground, inky blood spattered everywhere. “OH MY GOD!” I screamed, before truly waking up, panicked.
“Leuc?” I asked quickly, wondering what the dream meant, and If he was in my room. I relaxed a little when I saw him next to me, sleeping soundly. He’s safe… I pulled him into an embrace, and let his scent calm me down the rest of the way.
We lay there for a much longer time than I’d intended, but I didn’t mind. My to-do list included: buy a new cell phone, Convince Greg that I'm not dying, Avoid puking up more blood.
Oh boy…
I felt Luci stirring in my arms, and unconsciously I squeezed tighter. He let out a soft groan. “Sam…” I realised, and let go. “S-sorry, Leuc…” He grinned. “It’s okay…” I blushed. “I have an agenda today…” I told him.
“Lay it on me.” I nodded, telling him my to-do list. “What’s wrong with your old phone?” was the first thing he asked. “Screen’s smashed…” I muttered. He then proceeded to summon a brand new phone, the exact one I've been wanting. “Wait, what?” He chuckled, as I grabbed the phone box out of his hand.
“I’m the devil, did you forget?” he grinned wickedly, resulting in me blushing. “N-no… I didn’t, just…” I muttered something under my breath. “Pardon?” he asked. “I didn’t think you would do that for me… what do I owe you?”
He smiled, softer, nicer. “Nothing, nothing at all…” I smiled, though I was still doubting. “Sure…” He put his hand to his chest in faux offence. “Really?!” He scoffed, but I could see the grin on his face.
“Okay, dipshit, c'mere!” I tackled him onto the bed, pulling him into a hug. “Hey, no fair!~” he giggled. I smiled when he hugged back. We lie there for a small while, before I sat up, Leuc whimpering at the loss of contact.
Chuckling, I let him cuddle me more, turned around so that I could set up the new phone. A Galaxy Z Flip 5 sat in my hands as I opened the screen for the first time. Luckily, It was charged. I had the SD card from my old phone inserted, and let the Samsung smart switch work its magic.
Once the phone was set up, I transferred the SIM card, and Closed the phone, before It rang. “Hello?” I answered. “SAM!” It was Greg, he sounded angry. “WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED, I’VE BEEN CALLING YOU!” I tried to defuse the situation. “C-calm down, my phone broke, I just got a new one… I’m fine, perfectly healthy, too…” I said as calmly as I could. Greg never swears, nor yells… I thought.
“Oh, thank god…” He muttered over the phone. “But you were puking blood! Are you sure?” Leuc intervenes at this point, holding me tightly. “He’s great, It was just a cut… He may bleed a small bit still, but he’s healthy, more than healthy… He’s great!”
“Thank god…” he muttered, again. “Well, take it easy, and let your boyfriend take care of you, okay?” I blushed at him calling Luci my boyfriend, but he squeezed me tighter, possessively. “K-kay, Greg… talklaterbye!” I hung up, blushing furiously.
“...boyfriend…?” Leuc asked, sounding hurt. “I think he was referring to you…” I muttered, blushing. He squeezed tighter. “Good…” I caught him muttering under his breath. I turned over in his grasp, facing him.
His face was beet-red, and I'm sure I was too. “So…” I started. “So…” He responded. I took a deep breath. “Sodoyouwanttobemyboyfriend?youdonthavetoactuallyforgetIasked…” He chuckled. “Slow down, for one… I barely understood you…” Barely. “Secondly… Yes.” He smiled, and I did too. I nuzzled into his neck, grinning.
“Okay, boyfriend…” He emphasised the word. “What do you wanna do?~” He looked happier than he had this past week, probably stressed about me. “...cuddle?” I pinched myself quickly to make sure I wasn’t dreaming.
“Sure~” he muttered, and we did just that, laying in bed the whole day, embracing each other.
