The first rays of sunlight peeked through the curtains, casting a warm glow across the hotel room. Lucifer stirred awake, the gentle warmth of Alastor beside him making him smile. He turned to see Alastor still sleeping, his face peaceful and content.

With a soft kiss on Alastor's forehead, Lucifer whispered, "Hey, sleepyhead, wake up. We've got one last thing to do."

Alastor blinked awake, a sleepy smile spreading across his face. "What time is it?" he mumbled, rubbing his eyes.

"Early enough for one final romantic bath," Lucifer replied, sliding out of bed and heading toward the bathroom.

Alastor's eyes lit up at the suggestion. "I'm in!" He jumped up and followed Lucifer, his enthusiasm waking him up fully.

They filled the bathtub with warm water and bubbles, the fragrant scent of lavender filling the air. As they slipped into the tub, the warmth enveloped them, and they both sighed in contentment. Alastor leaned back against the tub's edge, pulling Lucifer close, their bodies entwined as they soaked in the last moments of their honeymoon.

"This has been amazing," Alastor said, looking up at the ceiling with a dreamy expression. "Every moment, every laugh... I'll treasure it forever."

Lucifer smiled, his heart swelling at Alastor's words. "Me too. It feels like we've created a lifetime of memories in just a few days."

They spent the morning in their bubble of tranquility, sharing gentle kisses and laughter as they reminisced about their adventures. Alastor splashed some water playfully at Lucifer, who retaliated with a feigned gasp of shock.

"Hey! No splashing in the romantic bath!" Lucifer exclaimed, laughing as he ducked away.

"Too late for that!" Alastor replied, their laughter echoing in the bathroom.

Eventually, they dried off and dressed, the atmosphere a blend of sweetness and a tinge of bittersweet as they prepared to leave. They began packing their bags, carefully folding their new duck-themed items and souvenirs from their trip.

As they zipped up their luggage, Alastor glanced at Lucifer, his expression a mixture of love and melancholy. "Are you ready to go home?"

"Yeah, but I'm going to miss this place," Lucifer admitted, his gaze drifting to the window, where the view of the hotel's beautiful grounds lay just outside.

"Me too, but think of all the fun we'll have back home. We can share our stories with Ava and Rosie," Alastor said, nudging him playfully.

"Right! Plus, we've got a lifetime of adventures ahead of us," Lucifer replied, a smile spreading across his face.

With their bags packed, they took one last look around their hotel room, soaking in the memories of their honeymoon. They walked hand in hand to the lobby, ready to check out and head to the airport.

As they exited the hotel, Lucifer leaned in and whispered, "I think this was just the beginning of many more adventures together."

"Absolutely," Alastor agreed, squeezing his hand tighter. "And I can't wait to see what's next."

Together, they stepped out into the world, their hearts full of love and excitement for the journey ahead.

After a smooth check-out and a ride to the airport, Lucifer and Alastor finally settled into their first-class seats. The plush leather and spacious layout felt luxurious, especially after their whirlwind honeymoon adventure. They both sighed contentedly as the flight attendants handed them menus and drinks, but as the plane prepared for takeoff, a wave of exhaustion washed over Lucifer.
