Save Me

T W E N T Y F I V E - E P I L O U G E

She didn't talk for the entirety of the journey home. She was obviously pissed even if I wasn't entirely sure why. We pulled up in front of the apartment and she jumped out of the car and stormed into the apartment.

I climbed out behind her warily and looked over at Crow. He looked just as confused as before. "I think she's mad" he said.

"No shit, Sherlock" I snapped. I rolled my eyes and followed her in. The door was ajar and I could hear shouts inside. "You go first" I gestured for Crow to pass me and he shook his head.

"No. You can deal with the devil and his daughter. I'll wait out here" he smirked and I fought the urge to punch his smug face.

When I walked into the kitchen, the first thing I saw was that Lauren had shifted again. Lucifer looked calm as he played with a large knife similar to the one I had been stabbed with.

"Are you still mad?" Lucifer asked.

"Do I look mad?" She hissed. "Where the fuck is Henry?"

So she wasn't mad at us. She spotted me and then I was hit in the face by something hard. I yelped as I fell back and hit the wall. Blood ran into my mouth from my nose and I watched as a green apple rolled away. So she was still mad at me. "He's probably at football practice!" I shouted.

She shifted back and smiled at me "Fuck I missed you" and then she hugged me. I stared down at her as she wrapped her arms around me and squeezed "Hug me back fucker"

I laughed "Ok Trouble"

****

I drove her to the school and she jumped out the car before we had even stopped. This wasn't a good idea as her legs went out from under her and she fell. I burst out laughing and she glared at me as if she was going to try ripping my throat out again.

We ran around the side of the school to the pitches where the football team were practicing. The coach spotted me and started walking towards me "Jacobs! I warned you! You're off the team! You've missed a week of training sessions!" He shouted.

I shrugged. Football hadn't really been a priority lately and I doubted I would have time to play now that Lauren was back. Looking down, I realised I should have probably changed out of the torn, bloodied shirt I wore.

Lauren didn't look great either. "Coach! I need to speak with Henry" she shouted as she ran over. I walked up behind her "He's my uncle and I need to talk about my Grandfather. It's important"

Coach sighed before turning around "Henry! Your niece is here!"

Henry turned and looked at Lauren. He nodded and ran over. His blonde hair was a mess and he laughed as he stopped infront of her and Coach walked away "Lily. What can I do for you?"

"Lily's dead. You can take a demon out a girl but you can't take a girl out a demon" she grinned. "You changed me. You found Rebecca didn't you? You knew what would happen if we talked. You planned the entire thing"

He gulped "I just wanted what's best for you"

She laughed. It was a manic laugh "Well. You've really fucked up now haven't you. Lily's gone. I've lost the part of me that has the chance to be good. There's no changing me now"

Henry stepped back and I grabbed his arm, stopping him from moving. "I won't kill you. Just warn you. If I ever see you, ever again. You'll have a fate worse than death. Got it?" She was still grinning and it was terrifying.

"Fine. I'll stay out your way" Henry snapped and walked back onto the pitch.

"What now?" I asked her.

She smirked "I'm immortal now. Becoming an angel made me unable to grow old. So now... we have some fun"

I grinned "We can go anywhere, do anything. Do something good, do something bad. Do something that's a bit of both. Become rich, become famous... kill someone rich or famous..." she looked up into my eyes "Fall in love all over again. Make Crow third-wheel the entire time" she giggled "Have some fun"

I smiled "Sounds like a plan" and I kissed her.

So we left. Three immortal souls, let loose to wreak havoc on the world.

Forever.

THE END
