Deal with the Devil

Everything is awkward...!

It'd been three weeks since me and Lucifer had officially settled things. It was awkward...All-The-Time...! I couldn't eat right nor think straight, gosh I probably failed that exam last Friday because of how flustered I was. Chey would take a breath and eyed out her bedroom window, watching the rain fall. 'At least it's raining and not sunny so I have an excuse to bail on a date...' She'd walk to her kitchen and stretched before getting a text from Lucifer. She'd feel a bit embarrassed at his contact name she'd given, even if she was the only one who saw it.

Luciloo: hey, you free this afternoon?
Chey: er, dunno, it's raining and all hehe..
Luciloo: gah, stupid rain. You want me to come over?

And that's when it hit me, I had planned a day to settle my thoughts when he could easily just stop by, the dorm buildings were connected..just my luck..

Chey: I uh..I guess..
Luciloo: you don't seem too thrilled..?
Chey: it's not that I promise, I just can't wrap my mind around having another boyfriend..
Luciloo: ah, you not ready?
Chey: I guess not...I just...I don't want to breakup but..
Luciloo: yeah I get it. A bit sudden and all. Er..I can still come over right?
Chey: uhm sure. I'll get snacks ready.
Luciloo: sounds good, see ya.

I'd catch my breath and then eyed up at my cieling as I fell back on the couch. "Oh dear..I didn't break up with him..did I?"

-●-

Lucifer would eye the wall blankly in his own dorm. "Maybe she's allergic to the flowers I sent?"

-●-

Chey would sit up from the couch. "He's a nice guy, I want to try but am I ready..?"

-●-

Lucifer eyed the price tag of the flowers, he'd cut it off before sending so she wouldn't see the price. "I don't remember her saying she was allergic to orchids.."

-●-

Chey would call him. Lucifer picked up. Chey took a breath. "Hey we need to-" "Yo you allergic to orchids?" Chey raised a brow. "No I love the flowers you sent me-" "Good I got worried." Chey would internally chuckled. 'I'm here wondering what to do with him and he still worries if I'm alright or happy..awww-' she was pulled out of her thoughts by his voice. "Earth to blondie.." Chey cleared her throat. "Sorry, just thinking." Lucifer nodded and then eyed the time. "Okay it's almost lunch, I'll be there soon." Chey nodded. "Okay see-" "Love you." Chey tensed up then smiled a bit. She'd hang up and put the phone to her cheek flushing. Lucifer chuckled at his phone. "Yeah, we're fine.."

- Chey's Dorm Room -

Chey would be sitting on the couch, however she'd have scooted away from Lucifer in embarrassment. She'd eye the t.v. and took a slice of pizza, Lucifer having ordered it before arriving. She'd take a bite and then eyed over, Lucifer was watching the t.v. She'd take a breath of relief. 'I don't know what I'd do if he was watching..' Lucifer would sigh. "Are you going to talk or are we just sitting here in silence between each other?" Chey would eye over and then glanced away. "Er, I dunno, I don't know what to talk about..it's just awkward.." 'Might as well tell him..' Lucifer furrowed his brow. "Awkward?" Chey nodded. "Mhm, just 3 weeks of a bundle of tension between us.." Lucifer furrowed his brow more so. "Tension? I'm not angry though.." Chey shook her head. "Not that kind of tension, tension as in I feel weird being alone right now, here I mean, not alone, well yes alone, but alone and with you here.." Lucifer would turn the t.v. off. "Have I done something?" Chey nodded. "You're being a perfect guy and I can't handle it!" Lucifer laughed a bit. "Oh?" He'd put his arm that was close to her on the back of the couch. "You should just treat me like you always have and I'll do the same. Except I'll now pull moves on you to keep you interested, whereas when we weren't a thing, all I had to do was stand there." Chey puffed up her cheeks and slid over into the her sized nook his side created so she could lean on him as she'd turn the t.v. back on. "Shut up.." Lucifer would chuckle and eyed the t.v. "Only if you promise to not dodge a date offer this coming week?" Chey gave a small nod. "Fine. This week I plan to be free. Happy?" Lucifer would shrug and tilted his cheek closer. "Eh...." Chey puffed up her cheeks. "You're a try hard." He'd scoff playfully. "Oh am I?" He'd laugh and tackled her on the couch. Chey laughed. "Luci!"
