Unexpected Lovers

Chapter 1

Chapter 1 of 'Unexpected Lovers'!
Enjoy <3

Chloe's POV:

Slowly I walk out of the elevator into Lucifer's penthouse taking in everything around me.
Woah, this place is so big! I've never actually been up here before. I wonder why he lives all alone in such a big space.
"Uh... Hello?", I say. I get no answer. "Uh, Lucifer? Are you here?", I try again. "Be out in a moment. Just getting ready!", I hear him yell from another room. "Okay", I answer while I keep looking around. It must be so nice living up here.
"Did you do what I told you to do and call Carver about the Player's Club?", I yell in the direction of where I think the bathroom is. "Make yourself a drink, detective.", I hear him say, not answering my question, and I sigh. 

This is a mission for work so there's no way I am going to drink right now. "No. No. No more drinks. No more blurred lines. No more breaking into my house or trying to sleep with me.", I try to make clear and I continue: "Look, Lucifer, this is a professional relationship. I'm a police officer, and you...", I say while I turn around and gasp.
He is just standing there casually, NAKED. While being in total shock, I take a look at his body. Damn, he looks amazing... When I finally gather my thoughts again, I quickly turn around while I finish my sentence: "... are naked. Oh..."

Lucifer's POV:
Chloe was completely blown away by me. She even looked at me for a little bit... I was quite surprised at that.
"Speaking of my surprise visit yesterday, I decided turnabout's fair play. You know, tit for tat sort of thing.", I say and chuckle a bit. "This is beyond inappropriate.", Chloe says still facing me with her back. "And brave wouldn't you say?", I tell her trying to make her understand me. "Number three on the C.K.C list: take risks.", I say pointing at myself.

The detective suddenly steps forward to take a towel that was randomly laying down on the couch and slowly turns around. She takes another quick look which makes me smile even more and then closes her eyes while handing me the towel.
"Okay just... Lucifer, put some freaking clothes on.", she tells me and I am very confused. Why would she want me to put on some clothes? Is she blind?
"All right." I answer while putting on the towel. "But seriously, darling, are you well? The berries are ripe and ready to be harvested!", I say jokingly, trying to make the detective laugh, but she doesn't say a thing.

Chloe's POV:
Lucifer is acting his cocky and confident self again.
I can't believe I just saw him naked and that he got me in his grip for a few seconds... I hope he just puts the towel on because if he doesn't, I don't know how I will even be able to contain myself. Okay, no, Decker, focus.
"I mean, look at me!", he says proudly and I slowly turn around taking another look at his beautiful body. Luckily, he put on the towel I gave him. Lucifer turns around slowly like a model, showing off his muscular chest and arms.
But when I completely see his back, I freeze for a second. There are two scars that covered his back from his shoulder blades to near his waist like there was something attached to them before?
How in God's name did they end up there?

"Now, you can't argue with that, can you?", he says cockily and smiles at me when he is fully turned around again. I stare at him with a confusing glare. I start walking up to him and I say:
"What happend to... My god."
"Oh, well, yes, I suppose it is his fault", he says out of the blue  and that confuses me even more. "Whose fault?", I answer. "My father.", he tells me like it's the most normal thing ever. How did his father hurt him like that?
"Your dad did that to you?", escapes my mouth without me even realising and he answers: "No, no, no. That's where I cut my wings off." Okay, this man is officially crazy. Is he on drugs or something? "What?", I answer because that's the only thing I can say as of right now. "Well, I didn't. Maze did. I told her to." "N-no.", I say. I'm very concerned for Lucifer right now.

Those scars looked like he got it from something extremely painful. I carefully put my hand on his shoulder and turn him around.
"Seriously... What is tha-", I say while I slowly try to touch the scars, but when I do, he turns around immediatly and grabs my wrist tightly. I am in shock for a second, even a bit scared.
"Don't, please.", he then says calmy.

Lucifer's POV:
While I look the detective in her eyes, I see that I scared her off. I notice that I grabbed her wrist too tightly and I loosen my grip. Why did I do that? I am so confused.
"Okay...", says the detective softly.
"I should get dressed. Otherwise, we'll miss the party.", I say, not knowing what else to do about this weird situation.
Did the detective and I just share a moment?

"So you did make the call?", she says trying to forget what just happend. "Yes, yes, yes. I got us the invitations.", I say while I put on my shirt.
When I am finally dressed, me and the detective go up to the elevator, I click the button, but the doors won't open. "Uhm, detective, I believe that the elevator is broken...", I say. I wanna burst out of happiness right now because this couldn't have happend at a better time.
"So... We are stuck in here?", she asks me with a shocked undertone. "I think so for now.", I tell her with a grin.
