Choices : To Live Or To Love ?

Stalk-her

It had been nine months since she'd ran away from Christophers house. Nine months, and she hadn't forgotten him. Not that she thought about him everyday but it was just hard to date cause everyone seemed either too boring or too nice. She wanted that intense connection she'd felt with Lucifer just one more time.

She had found an apartment, being neighbours with Zeus was kinda fun. They had eventually decided not to share an apartment because Radiant needed to learn how to be independent, responsible and clean. That last one was all Zeus. He had OCD issues and Radiant was just well, too occupied to care about where she put her shoes.

And that she did, she got a job two actually. One at the Local newspaper as a writers assistant and a night shift at the supermarket as overall cashier thank God for her CPAs she was also good with numbers . Her degree and masters in higher literature wasn't doing her much good yet, but she had high hopes. Emma had taught her the importance of believing that things would work out.

Patience patience...
Well it was a like a nice slow song with the same beat throughout the song no hook no chorus just one word. Patience. It was frustrating and endless. She liked adventure things moving at different paces, adrenaline. Well so much for that all she could do was write about it. One of these days someone would come across her work and publish it. She just had to believe.
Her phone rang, it was Emma.

"Hey Rad guess what! " she said excitedly.
" umm you won the lottery and you giving me half the money? "

"no dummy, I met a guy " she giggled.

Radiant rolled her eyes, "again? so what's different about this one. Is he a mutant, cause you've been through everything with balls, "

"Hey, am offended. I didn't sleep with him, yet.. Plus he's really tall and huge you know just my type and his dark probably from Britain too imagine all the glory down there." Emma bubbled.

Radiant laughed then whispered into the phone when her boss the editor looked at her quizzically.

"Okay I'm gonna hang up now, I'm at work love, stories about strangers dicks will have to wait "

" Wait, this sexy stranger was asking around for a red head with green eyes, well it's a small town and I directed him to your apartment. "

" You did what? What if he's a Stalker or worse a serial killer with a thing for red heads, you're going to reduce our already small population! " seriously Emma could be so irrational sometimes.

" What? he was hot , he has a British accent and was in a tailored suit he said his name is Ottis plus he gave me his number just in case. "

" Yeah I'm sure you liked that, I'll forgive you if I don't end up dead, otherwise I will haunt you " with that Radiant hang up shaking her head.

Friends could be your ruin. But she loved Emma either way. Continuing with her work, well she did most of the editing but her boss always took credit. She didn't care as long as she got paid weekly she was fine.

Finally after a long day, she left work at around 3 and headed home to take a nap then eat and change for her night job. She parked her car near the gate just to make it easier to leave for work later. It wasn't a Ferrari, but it was her favourite asset just because it represented love and sacrifice. She bought it from the money that she and Emma saved up together.

Oh well time to sleep, running to her apartment she actually got excited from the thought of her bed, weird sleepgasms. She took out her key only to find the door unlocked. Had she left it open or had she been robbed? She picked up the nearest weapon, a broom.

Someone was in her kitchen. The lovely smell of caffeine filled the house. And the thief was making coffee seriously? Getting too comfortable it seems. She creeped in slowly making sure her sneakers didn't make a sound and hit him hard with the tip of the broom. Taken by surprise he fell and hit his head on the sink with a loud thud.
"Shit, " the thief grimaced.

She looked down at the culprit proud of herself for taking him out. Well all the action movies paid off. Wait,

"Lucifer? "
