Forever Unbroken

A Kiss is Just a Kiss?

 For once in his eternally long life, the Lightbringer was kissing someone, and he didn’t care about their carnal desires or his own reputation as an excellent lover. His heart was full and his world was consumed by Daniel and the desire to be close to him.

As for Dan, he felt comforted being close to Lucifer, and was grateful to him for caring for and listening to him. He knew that his feelings for the Fallen Angel had been growing steadily over the last three weeks. If someone had asked him earlier that morning if he wanted to be with the Consultant, he would have said no, but now, well, he felt his answer would be different.

Time seemed to go slowly for them while they kissed, as if everything had frozen and given into their joint will, as they both wished for this moment, full of acceptance, deep affection, and care to last forever. However, it was not meant to be as they heard the elevator ding and footsteps enter the penthouse. Before they got very far apart, they both heard a familiar voice.

“Lucifer!” Mazikeen called. "I've been trying to reach you. Why haven't you answered…your phone…" She trailed off as she saw how closely the two males were sitting. She took in a few facts. They both looked a bit annoyed at her abrupt entrance, they both had a hand on the other's shoulder, and they both seemed slightly ruffled. 

"Oh…now I see why you weren't answering my texts. You were rather busy I see." She smirked at Dan. "You finally got him eh? Good for you Dan. I was sure it would take at least another two weeks before you made a move."

"What do you want Maze? If I wasn't answering you, there was a reason. You don't have to barge in here." Yes, there was a reason; Lucifer had been so wrapped up in Dan that he hadn't noticed the alert on his phone. But he wasn't going to tell her that. 

Mazikeen gave him a knowing look. "And what exactly was this reason? I mean, you’re the Devil, you would have heard it. Do you expect me to believe that your supernatural hearing suddenly didn’t work? Or are you saying that you were just ignoring me? Oh wait, I know what happened. The Devil’s senses were overwhelmed your attraction to this human. Now I’ve seen everything. I’ve got to tell your Mom and Amenadiel.”

Lucifer was losing his patience with the demon. Usually, her taunts meant nothing to him, but for some reason, he just couldn’t tolerate her right now.

“Watch yourself Mazikeen,” his eyes burned as he locked eyes with her. “Again, what do you want?” He growled as he eyed his former right hand.

Maze rolled her eyes and sighed. “Let’s just say that your mutual ex,” she began as she waved a hand at the two partners. “Is not just a pain in your collective ass but she’s becoming one in mine too. In short, get back to work so the rest of us don’t have to put up with Chloe Decker .” 

Dan sighed as while with Lucifer, he was able to forget his ex, if only for a few minutes. It seemed that the realities of life were returning like storm clouds. 

Lucifer seemed equally frustrated. “Since when do you have an issue with Decker, Maze? I thought you two were roommates and that you were putting up with her.” 

Maze looked at him as if he had suddenly sprouted horns and a spiked tail. 

"I'm not even going to dignify that with a response? All I have to say now is this, if Decker gets desperate enough, she just might remember that she knows where you live."
