The story line is that Chloe's mom gets sick, Chloe gets upset receiving the information from the hospital, she remains highly upset and her mind fills with worry, she drinks, gets drunk to forget her problems a lot more than usual.

~•~•~•~

Chloe was home taking care of Trixie and helping her with her current homework. It has been days since a case requiring Chloe had been coming up. No case meant not seeing Lucifer as often since he'd mostly be managing Lux. That was until a phone call interrupted Chloe's thoughts. Chloe quickly got up from her chair in the dinner room and picked the phone up. She was ready to answer with her usual "Detective Decker" until she heard it wasn't a call for help in the precinct. It was actually the hospital calling to find a "Chloe Decker".

"Yeah, you're talking to her" she answered, a bit worried of why the hospital had called her specifically. Just as the nurse started planning out the news, Chloe felt her heart sink. She couldn't believe what was coming out of the nurses mouth. She hurriedly let the nurse know she'd be there as soon as possible and as she hang up, another call came in. She called Dan quickly. Letting him know she was gonna drop Trixie off to go to the hospital, as she did, she told Trixie everything was alright.

Minutes passed and Chloe was already at the hospital, identifying herself and the one and only Chloe Decker to be able to pass to the emergency room. When she got there, what she saw before her was probably someone she had disliked her whole life, but at this very moment she couldn't help but let a few tears out. It was her mother. Apparently Miss Decker had been suffering a disease and now had the effects start coming up. The nurses assured both women that everything would be alright but Chloe knew it wasn't. The type of illness Mama Decker had was most likely terminal. And, in worst cases it was too late to deal with it.

Putting their problems in the past aside, Chloe and her mother spent time together before the doctors hurried in and told Chloe to leave so they could work. Though Chloe already knew what the outcome was.

Being upset, she decided to go home and take some alone time. Trixie being away meant she could have all the time and privacy in the world to let her grieve out. Chloe thought that maybe one drink would be relieving. But that one drink turned into twenty, and by the time she realized she had gotten drunk. And drunk Chloe is one heck of a mess. To her surprise, someone very dead decided to call, wanting to know why the detective hadn't been around the precinct today and yesterday. When she heard his british accented voice, a crazy but not first time idea came to mind. Before Lucifer could ask anything else, Chloe had already gotten into her car, hung up and drove.

Luckily, she arrived to his penthouse without a scratch, perhaps her guardian angel made sure she got there safe. Without any warning, she walked right into his apartment, giving the tall devil a dejavú.

"Detective? I was just on the phone with you, how did you get here so fast?" He spoke up, getting the drunk girl's attention.

"Oh you know, a cop has privileges" Chloe answered, bringing up her fist and doing soft "woo-woo"'s imitating the police car's lights.

Lucifer half laughed and hurried to her "Drunk again, are we? Whats the occasion?" He asked, taking her hand but Chloe snatched it back quickly, a low growl coming from the drunk girl "Who cares, ok? I can do whatever I want" she said, a bit sassy as she walked passed him.

"Oh I can assure you that you can do anything you want but, why today? Was it because of the lack of crime? Got bored, perhaps?" He suggested, wanting so badly to know why his detective was so upset yet closed about it.

"Im just sad, ok? And I drink when Im sad! Yeah thats it" Chloe mumbled, a bit hard to understand but still audible. She plopped  down on Lucifer's sofa and let out a big sigh. Lucifer was going to ask something else until the blond spoke up "I mean... I dont even know why Im sad. As harsh as it sounds, I always thought this day would be relieving. But instead Im sad she's sick" she spoke, making Lucifer worried.

"Who's sick, darling? Trixie?" He asked, softly siting down next to her.

"No, my mom" Chloe corrected. When she said that, tears started forming in her eyes "I mean, after all she did to me, Im sad? It doesn't make sense" she said, whining and throwing her head back a bit.

Lucifer sighed and tried somewhat cuddle her to make her feel better "Listen dear, maybe she did you wrong but deep inside, you love her! She's your mum anyways" he spoke, taking a deep breath "And, humans grieve all the time. For anything really. So I assure you, Detective, there is nothing wrong with you being upset" he said, finishing and rubbing her arm. Chloe couldnt help but look up at Lucifer and staring at him for a bit. Before he could say anything about her staring, probably a sarcastic remark, she was already making head way for a kiss.

Lucifer then felt it again, a dejavú. He leaned back as she leaned in and he stopped it from happening, again. Which Chloe, again, looked confused and whined "Why are you leaning away?" She asked, puppy eyeing Lucifer. "I— Detective you know this is wrong. Firstly you're drunk and second you're grieving. Its not particularly ok to take advantage of you" he explained, but Chloe frowned and leaned back a bit "So you're just gonna not kiss me?" She asked, looking a bit mad. Which was new to Lucifer. He tried to chuckle his way out but Chloe went in again and Lucifer put his finger up, preventing her lips from reaching his "Darling, Im afraid I declined" he said, a bit more certain now. She then leaned away and groaned "Im doing it again. Unbelievable. I'm, once again, drunk throwing myself at you, because of my mom, being rejected. This is sooo stupid" she said, covering her face with her small hands.
