Chapter 4 - Nightmares

*Lucifer's P.O.V.*

The nightmares.

Every night I had those nightmares.

No, not nightmares, memories, actually. Horrible ones.

They were of when I fell, and time I spent in the cage alone.

It was torture.

I awoke, my forehead beaded in sweat. I looked up at Y/N, she lay there peacefully sleeping. In the mornings she would ask what the dreams were about, but I changed the subject every time. It had been a few weeks since she had agreed to "babysit" me.

I didn't understand, from day one, I liked her. I never tried to be mean to her or torture her like I did the Winchesters and their pet angel Castiel. She never looked at me like a monster. Most people, they would either look at me with fear or hate, but she was different. She treated me as if I were her... friend. Or maybe even something more?

No.

I couldn't.

Fall for a human?

I hated humans, I hated them with every fiber of my being, they stole me away from Father. They were the cause of everything that had happened to me.

But Y/N, I couldn't hate, no matter how hard I tried.

I shook my head, I was going to go back to sleep... but I couldn't. Every night, I had those nightmares, even when I woke up and went back to sleep. They just happened over and over, it was like they were taunting me.

If I had something against me, like a pillow, or if I had my blankets curled up in a ball and I hugged them, it helped a little, but...

I looked at Y/N again... maybe...

*Your P.O.V.*

You woke up. You figured it was around 9:30 in the morning since you felt like you got good rest. Usually, Lucifer would grow impatient and wake you up at 6:30 A.M.

You noticed something different. 

An arm was wrapped around you waist and a body pressed against your back, with legs entangled with yours. The other hand was gently playing with you hair. 

You turned your head and your face met with Lucifer's.

"Lucifer what ar-"

He put his finger to you lips, shushing you.

Then, he wrapped his free arm on the other side of you and buried his face gently into your neck.

Lucifer stated, "You wanted to know what the dreams were Y/N, they aren't dreams, they're memories. Memories of when God cast me down into the pit... memories of how... alone I was. You remember when we first started hanging out together? When I told you nothing was wrong and pushed you away?"

He paused. for a minute.

"I was afraid, Y/N. I was afraid to get close to anyone because I though they would get ripped away. I couldn't risk being attached to a human, the creature that had ripped me away from my brothers and sisters, even Father," his voice was starting to break up.

You had never seen this side of Lucifer before.

You didn't know what to do. You knew it was hard for him to tell you all these things, you actually felt a little honored that he would tell you, and not somebody else. You kind of just sat there for a minute when you decided to hug him.

Lucifer was caught a little off guard, he really didn't expect for you to have sympathy.

Lucifer hugged back.

Half an hour later you were putting bacon in the microwave for you and Lucifer.

Lucifer came up to you as you pressed the start button.

"Beep beep beep beep," he started teasing,

"Luci!" you complained as you playfully punched him in the arm, "I swear to God if you don't stop-"

"Please don't get Father involved in this, he'll just make things worse," he told you with a disgusted look on his face.

BEEP BEEP BEEP

You flinched, just a little bit. That still caused Lucifer to go on a laughing spree.

You sighed and got the bacon out of the microwave.

You took his piece of bacon and threw it at him.

He miraculously caught it and smirked as he yelled, "FOOD FIGHT!"

You started to protest when you got hit in the face with a piece of bacon.

"Hey!" you yelled.

You started chasing him.

You ran through the halls, going around tables, going through rooms.

"What the hell is going on!" Dean complained as I accidentally plowed Dean over.

Lucifer stopped to look back, Dean was sprawled out on the floor and I was laying right on top of Dean.

I rolled off of him and started chasing after Lucifer again.

Dean shook his head as Sam started laughing, Castiel looked up from his book with a confused look on his face.

You both finally sprinted into your room, thinking Lucifer was there. You didn't see him.

You turned around and Lucifer grabbed you and pinned you on your bed.

"I feel like we've done this already."

Lucifer smirked, "I win!"

"Yeah, yeah."

You started staring at each other.

Damn it not again.

But then, something different happened.

Lucifer leaned down and kissed you.

You were stunned, to say the least.

Then, you got over your shock, and the kiss deepened.

Lucifer let go of your hands and sat you up on the bed.

Your hands started running through his hair.

Finally, you both needed some air and broke off the kiss.

"L-lucifer w-wow um..." you stuttered.

Your face was a dark shade of red.

"S-so uh... what does this mean?" you asked.

"What do you mean?"

"L-like are we going to be in a relationship? Was that kiss real? oHmYgOsH."

You were really flustered.

"I'd love to be in a relationship with you, Y/N. Your the only human I would do it with. Heck, your the only human I even remotely like."

"I feel honored."

You both smiled and went in for another kiss.

"Oh wait!" you suddenly said, "What about the bacon? It's probably cold now and I'm starving."

"Yeah, me too."

"All I have to do is heat it up in the microwave-"

"Beep beep beep"

"You're never going to let me live this down, are you?" you asked.

"Nope."
