(Lucifers pov)

I sit across from Charlie at the dinner table, Al next to me and vaggie next to her.
"Well?" I say.
"10 more minutes.." Charlie groans.
"Relax I'm sure were the highest bidder." Alastor reassured.
He's confident, its helping my nerves.
I really want this for us..everyones worked so hard.
"What if we don't get it.." She mumbles, staring at her phone.
"Oh please, we will." I say.
"Babe we got this." Vaggie adds.
"5 minutes.."
We sit in silence.
Gosh it's making it worse.
"Hey so uh, me and Al have something to discuss with you aswell.."
Al looks at me, and I can see he's not ready for this conversation. But he and I both know we have to tell them at some point..
"Right..uhm.."
"So, upon constructing and moving into the second location, we have decided.."
"We're going to adopt.." Al finishes.
Vaggies mouth drops open.
Charlie gasps.
"OH MY GOODNESS! REALLY??? AHHHHHH!!"
Al grips my hand, holding it tightly.
"Settle down a bit, char-char..yeah. We plan to adopt, once everything is settled in and running smoothly."
"I'm so happy!! This is amazing!!"
"Wait." Vaggie pauses. "Your relationship is still a secret to hell, only close people know."
"Yeah about that." I start. "Al agreed to ONE photoshoot, to post on my socials, to tell all of hell."
Charlie gasps again.
"CAN I TAKE THE PHOTOS!!"
"We need someone to do it.."
"EEEEE" she squeals,
"Okay okay, the bid.."
She turns on her phone,
"The email came in.."
She presses on the email and starts to read it aloud.
"Dear Charlotte morningstar, It has been seen so that you are the chosen advocates for the next and last step in our journey of selling ___ property. The exchange. We are happy to inform you that we are choosing to go with your bid. Please reach out to me via phone number so we can begin the payment and filing process!"
"We got it!" I mumble,
"Hell yeah!" Vaggie says.
Charlie hugs vaggie, squealing in excitement.
Al smiles lightly, he's not much of an emotional guy but he's definitely happy.
"And so the process begins." He sighs,
I rest my head on his shoulder.
"The beginning of our journey."
