TEMPTATION • luficer m.

08 • "NEW ROMANTICS"

"CAUSE, BABY, I COULD BUILD A CASTLE OUT OF ALL THE BRICKS THEY THREW AT ME AND EVERY DAY IS LIKE A BATTLE BUT EVERY NIGHT WITH US IS LIKE A DREAM."

•••

I sat up from the bed, seeing Lucifer still asleep.

A soft smile appeared on my face as I saw that the sun shone on his face, enlightening his features.

I shifted out of the bed, grabbing the first thing I saw on the floor to wear, turns out it's Lucifers designer robe.

I walked to the bathroom to wash my face.

After refreshing my face as much as I could without any of my products, I walked to grab myself a cup of coffee.

"So that's where my robe went." I turn around to see Lucifer naked. Blood rushed to my cheeks.

"You have like a dozen more, why aren't you wearing them?" I said trying to make my blush less noticeable.

"After having sex so many times, you're still flustered?"

"Well it's not like I pay attention to that when we're having sex, I'm more focused on other things.." I mumbled, taking a sip of his coffee, too lazy to make my own.

I look up at him, seeing his eyes gazing at me.

"What are you looking at?" I giggled. A small smirk appeared on his lips.

"Well, you, obviously." I laughed, putting the cup on the table and wrapping my hands around his neck, pulling him down for another kiss.

"Hm.. as much as I would like to bed you once again, I believe you have a performance today."

"Ugh, that has got me so stressed."

"You'll do amazingly, darling."

"I hope so."

"I know so." He coo'ed.

"I like this new Lucifer." I giggle. "One more kiss?"

"Always."

•••

I had just gotten a text from Ella that she brought some guests to the show and they were coming backstage.

I sighed, I fixed the black, long sleeve off-the-shoulder top and pulled up the back camo baggy pants that had slits to show the fishnet like mesh.

I wore black combat boots with everything.

My hair was straightened, and I had a bold red lip with eyeliner. Completing my performance outfit.

"Hello~" I heard throughout the other chattering with the other members of the group and their families.

Ella walked in with flowers, pink roses with those little white flowers.

"El!" I smiled giving her a hug. The door opened more to reveal Lucifer, Chloe, Maze with a little girl and a man.

"Hi." I said, holding my hand out to shake the man's.

"Daniel, just call me Dan."

"Amelia, nice to meet you." I looked down to see a little girl.

I kneeled down and smiled at the little girl.

"And who are you?"

"Beatrice but everyone calls me Trixie."

"Nice to meet you Trixie, I'm Amelia but you can call me Millie."

"You're really pretty." She whispered. I chuckled softly.

"So are you." I stood up again.

"Hi Mazikeen." I said giving her a soft smile, she gave me sarcastic one.

"Anywayyy... these are for you!" Ella said handing me the flowers.

"Thank you." I smiled giving her a hug.

"Oh! Amelia, who are these people?" Haylie said, twirling her blonde locks as she eyed Lucifer up and down.

"Uh.. this is my sister Ella, Dan, Chloe, Trixie, Maze and Lucifer.." I said. Lucifer simply smirked at the girl.

My smile faltered slightly but I just focused on putting the flowers in the vase.

"Why don't we go find our seats? It's probably filling up." Chloe said smiling at me.

"Yeah."

"Good luck baby sister." Ella said hugging me once again.

"Break a leg! But not literally!" Dan said giving me a thumbs up before leaving. Lucifer just left, giving me a glance before he did.

"Please welcome Empire!" The announcer said as we got into our places. I stood in the middle, taking a deep breath before the music came on.

(0:00-1:22)

Our bodies moved to the beat, cheers being heard as we did, the robotic like movements memorizing many of them.

•••

We stood in the middle of the stage, out of two groups. The large shiny trophy right there.

"These two groups tonight have showed great passion for the dances but one stood out , it was unique and felt so engaging.

The man opened the envelope, a smile on his lips.

"Congratulations Empire! The winner of 2016 world dance competition!" We all screamed giving each other a hug.

Clarence walked up to the microphone, shaking a few words as we held the trophy and the cash prize.

"And I just want to give a little shoutout to our seniors dancer, Amelia Lopez. She almost died and still made it to dance, helping us win so, I admire your braveness and commitment."

I gave a soft thank you as we walked off the stage.

•••

I was given hugs when we got backstage, except for Mazikeen and Lucifer of course.

Lucifer went elsewhere, probably flirting with Haylie, she was his type after all.

"You were so cool! Can you teach me to dance like that?!" Trixie said super excitedly.

"Of course, but are you 100% committed?"

"Duh!"

"Okay then!" I smiled at her.

I started packing up my things when I saw Lucifer in the corner with Haylie.

I was mad at him but he wasn't mine. He wasn't my boyfriend, he was just a man I love.

"Ugh well I would love to celebrate but, university wants me to die. So I'll see you guys soon." I smiled before walking out the door.

Silent tears rolled down my face as I drove home.

"Stupid girl, stupid naive girl. Thinking he would love you. Stupid."
