She's Got The Devil's Eyes - Deckerstar (Completed)

Chapter VI

"I missed you so much," Chloe had been the first one to talk as they were coming down from their highs, right after she brought her breathing back to a normal rate. For the first time, she was able to understand the appeal of reunion sex, finding it far more satisfactory now that she had such good and strong emotions going through her body.

Starting from when Chloe attached herself to Lucifer like a koala bear, there had been an unspoken agreement that things had to be that way from then on. From the minute they were reunited to the present time, there had not been a single moment where they weren't physically touching, starting from when Chloe stood on her tiptoes to kiss the devil on the lips.

They had missed each other so much that it was just so hard to stay apart now that they had finally gotten the other back. Be it for two months or eighty years, both of them had been in their own kind of Hell without the other, and without exaggerating, learning to build a life without one of its constants was hard. It would be really unfair to even ask them to separate, and if someone did, they would say no without hesitation. They had missed the warmth of the other, their presence, they had even missed themselves and how they were and acted when the other was around. They were forced to draw to the conclusion that they did not function properly while apart, and whilst they could be alive and could live without each other, they simply didn't want to.

Chloe would never admit it but during their passionate time, she let a tear or two escape the confinement of her blue eyes. She was just so happy, so positively overwhelmed by it all that she managed to forget every single worrying thing. She could no longer think about all the worries and doubts she had about her pregnancy, she could no longer worry about that Ansel guy or what would happen to him, she couldn't even place herself on a specific point of time and space. And blame her, but it felt pretty damn good to be able to zone out, to focus all of her attention and energy on the one thing she had so desperately wanted during those torturous two months: the devil himself.

"I have never, ever in my life, missed someone or something as much as I missed you," they still hadn't gotten the chance to talk about it all, they had just jumped straight into action, straight into love. "And that's saying something, isn't it?"

"It is," Chloe sighed contently, placing her head on top of the devil's chest and letting his heartbeat be her lullaby. "I just can't believe you're back,"

"I know, I can't either," Lucifer placed his arm around Chloe's waist, pulling her closer to his naked body in a useless attempt to feel her close. They were and had already been flesh to flesh, it was difficult to get any closer than that.

"It's just... These two months you've been in Hell have been... well, Hell, to me," Chloe places the palm of her hand right beside her own head, letting her fingertips feel how the devil's heart was hammering against them. For a brief second, the thought that their baby also had a rapid heartbeat went through her mind. "I just... I hated seeing how everyone just moved on and kept going on with their lives and I just couldn't. I didn't want to,"

"I'm glad you didn't want to," Lucifer's train of thought had derailed completely. He had so many things he wanted to say, so many emotions to voice, so many tears to shed. Yet the only thing he could do was answer to his detective's statements.

"I'm glad I didn't, too. And well, it's not like I would have been able to," She says, suddenly and briefly forgetting that Lucifer didn't have a clue about her current state, about the beautiful miracle they had created together. She couldn't see Lucifer's face from her position, but she could sense the look she was a target of.

"What do you mean?" The devil asks, voicing it softly. Chloe releases a loud puff of air, trying to divert the topic of conversation. Right at that moment, she was able to understand that she was in no way ready to tell him about their child.
