TEMPTATION • luficer m.

21 • "THIS IS HOME."

"LITTLE HANDS, THAT TOOK FAR TOO LONG TO HOLD. I BRING YOU CLOSE, NEVER WANTING TO LET GO. THE NURSE WRAPPED HER UP, AND SAID, "SHE'LL DO AMAZING THING'S."

•••

I felt my heart drop when I felt contractions.

I knew they weren't fake.

They felt like period cramps but multiplied by a thousand.

I screamed as I felt one that felt like I would collapse.

Lucifer burst in, seeing me on the floor.

"We need to get to the hospital." I said, gripping onto his arm. Still in massive amounts of pain.

He called Maze as he grabbed the hospital bag and carried me to the car.

I sat in the car, counting the time between contractions as Lucifer drove.

"How bad is it?"

"Still 10 minutes apart." I hissed feeling another one.

"Okay, we're almost there. Maze called Ella and Chloe."

"Okay- shit!" I yelled, balling my hands into fists. My nails digging into my palms.

Maze waited outside with the wheelchair, we got in. Ella and Chloe showed us to the room.

"God, how do people do this more than once." I groaned in pain.

"I asked myself the same question when I had Trixie." Chloe said.

"I'm going to be an Aunty soon! I'm going to spoil this little bugger so much."

I was progressing quickly, I don't know if it had something to do with me being an angel or maybe the baby wanted to meet everyone but I was in so much pain already.

"Okay, you're 10 cm dialled. You're going to start pushing soon, alright?" The doctor said, gowning up.

Lucifer looked pale and scared.

He held my hand, looking at me.

"You'll be alright." He mumbled against my forehead.

"Okay, are you ready?"

I nodded.

"1, 2, push-"

•••

My head fell back into the pillow as I heard high pitched cries.

"Congratulations, it's a girl!" I smiled as I saw her being taken away to get cleaned off.

"Go see how she's doing." I whisper to Lucifer, he nods pressing another kiss to my forehead.

I spot Chloe crying at the sight of the baby and Maze with a grin.

"And to the new father." A nurse smiled placing the baby into Lucifers arms, I see him smiling with tears in his eyes.

Chloe looks at the baby, smiling and cooing at her.

Finally, when Lucifer brings her to me , I hold her in my arms.

"Hi." I say, seeing her move around, her little eyes opening. "Im so happy you're here." I smile pressing a kiss onto her forehead.

"Do we have a name?" The doctor smiles.

"Esther Mariana. Mariana was my moms name." I smile, seeing tears spring to ellas eyes.

"Well hello, Esther Mariana Morningstar. Quite a name you got there, haven't you my little girl?" Lucifer cooes, her little hand curling around Lucifers finger.

"Congrats sis, this is so amazing." Ella smiled.

"Thanks el'."

•••

Throughout the day, people came to visit the little girl.

Linda came, holding Esther.

"How did you find the name Esther?"

"I liked its meaning, it means star. The light in dark times." I smiled, still exhausted from childbirth.

"It's beautiful. You did amazingly, Amelia."

"Thanks doc."

The door opened, Chloe walked in with a running Trixie, Dan and Cain.

Lucifer was glaring.

"Millie! Is the baby here?" Trixie smiled.

"Yes, she is." I giggled. "She's with Linda but you gotta be quite because loud noises make babies scared."

"Okay." She whispered. Lucifer took Esther from Linda's arms.

"Are you sure? She's so small." Lucifer looked at me then at Trixie, somewhat hesitant.

"Lucifer, it's fine." I smiled. Chloe sat beside Trixie while Lucifer carefully put the baby in her arms, Chloe helping support her neck.

"Congratulations." Cain said, trying to make Lucifer stop glaring at him.

"Thank you." I smile.

After about an hour if everything, they all decided to leave. It was getting late anyways.

We said our goodbyes and we were left in a dark room, with a little baby.

Lucifer was holding the baby, smiling one of the widest smiles I've ever seen.

"I love her so much and she's only been in the world for a day or so."

"Aw.. is fatherhood making you soft?" I teased.

"Only for her." He smiled kissing her forehead. He walked over to me, kissing me.

I returned the kiss, smiling.

"What was that for?"

"The best present I could ever have." He said.

I kissed him again when Esther started fussing.

I giggled.

"Don't worry, little star. You're getting plenty of kisses." I smiled kissing her cheeks.
