Fuck you (not) (an applemedia fanfic)

📻radio-demon📻

Happy halloween you guys! I hope you had a great day!

I sit down beside Charlotte, Lucifer sitting across from us.
She hasn't told anyone yet what she needed, which is worrying.
"So-uh-dad-.."
Vaggie takes a seat on the other side of Charlie,
"She's settled in."
"Thanks. Uhm." Charlie looks back at Lucifer. "So uh. Moms back.."

WHAT.
Shit.
Shit shit shit!
Is she here for him? Or for me??? BOTH OF THOSE ARE BAD!!
No no no no no...

"Thank you for letting me know Charlie. Does she plan on staying here?"
Charlie nods.
"Okay."
He gets up.
So calm..so collected..no. Not him. Not when it comes the her.

I get up and follow him, I don't even care anymore.
"Lucifer!"
He walks into his suite, leaving the door open for me.
"Look at me."
He ignores me, pulling out a pill bottle and popping one in his mouth.
I can see him shaking profusely.
"Honey..look at me.."
"I-I'm fine. I s-swear." He stutters.
As he walks toward his nightstand and grabs his duck, still keeping his back to me.
I can hear how uneven his breathing is.
"Hyperventilating to yourself is not going to help."
"I'm fine!" He squeaks. "I'll just..- go back to my castle! I'm fine! Completely fine!!"
"..honey.. I'm not running from her. So neither are you."
"Why would you have to run? You haven't done anything wrong! Hell she'd probably like you!"
"You're entirely wrong.." I sit down on the bed and pull him down with me. "You'd hate me if you knew why."
"I hated you once. Wasn't worth it."
"Dear, She owns my soul."
...

"She owns your soul..and you didn't tell me?!"
"Hating me sounds pretty good right now doesn't it..?"
He looks at me. "How could you not tell me something like that!"
"Well to be fair there's A LOT that I don't tell ANYONE."
"That's not helping!" He gets up, grabbing a few things.
Just as he does so vox teleports in from his phone.
"Hey-uh whats going on-.."
"Liliths back." I say.
"She owns his soul."
"HUH?!"

God damn it Lucifer..
"It's not a big deal. She just doesn't want me to thrive in hell, you know I was making such a big deal I was almost showing her and Lucifer up. She didn't like that everyone forgot about her reign because of mine. And she got me. Why do you think I'm not out collecting souls. I can't."
Silence.
"How'd she manage to get you to give it up."
I look up at Lucifer.
"She and I were planning to take hell from you together, and she had me sign something that ended up being a bind instead of a partnership agreement. Now I'm supposed to be the face of happiness and...take care of Charlie."
"Take care?"
"I don't think you wanna know how, love. I figured it'd be easy but I got attached..And then I got EVEN MORE attached. And I figured she'd just kill me eventually so I didn't have to."
Vox and Lucifer just stand there in silence.

I'm so fucked up and I know it.
But I don't know how to handle things like this..what the fuck do I do..

"I-..I'm going to my Castle."
