A Timeline Of Hurt And Deceit (Obey me DiaLuci Fanfic)

Be happy that I'm here

Diavolo's pov:

I was in a dark place. Empty , nothing. I can't seem to see anything else. All I can think about was him. I want to be with him. But everytime I remember that he left me because of my mistake... He disappeared. And until now... I'm suffering. I'm not happy.

Everything was in shambles. Luci... For...give me. Forgive me Luci.

"For...give me Luci." I was still in a dream like state.

"I forgive you already. I love you." I felt a warm and wet cloth brush over my skin. That voice... Who could that be? It can't be Lucifer. But that's his voice. He left me years ago. He left me alone. How could that be him?

I love you... That's one thing I wanted to hear from him another is his forgiveness.
I finally calm down.

I was back in that darkness. But it doesn't seem so lonely and empty like it was before. I remember the cloth that was being brushed over my skin. Was I sick again? It's been years since I was last sick.

I sat there in the middle of nowhere. Looking around I saw a little boy maybe 5 years old. I thought I was alone in the middle of nowhere. I was surprised when I saw how much he looked like Lucifer. He was looking downwards but I just knew.

"Kid... Who are you?" I asked. The boy who looked downwards looked up to me. I was right. He is a duplicate of him.
"All I know is I was named Lucas." He responded.

"O...Kay Lucas. What're you doing here?" I asked. His face was kind of chubby. But I didn't mind that.
"I don't know too. All I wanted was to see my other dad and I was led here by my wish." He said cheerfully. As if there's nothing he would worry about.

I just nodded. He continued on to walk.
"What happened to you kid? Where's your parents?" I asked.
"Well... I don't know too. I wanted to be born. But someone didn't want me to be." He sighed and smiled.

"You mean you're dead?" I asked for clarification.
"Yes I am. I was supposed to be born 3 days after I died. That's why my soul is lingering around like this." I suddenly remembered the baby Lucifer and I lost. The baby that was supposed to be our youngest.

"But I don't want to haunt anyone. I just want to see what kind of life I was supposed to live. Maybe that way I'll pass on peacefully. I won't remember any of it anyway." He smiled at me. He doesn't seem like a 5 year old kid.

"You don't seem to be a kid. I remember the kid I was supposed to have. He would've looked a lot like you if he only lived." I kneeled in front of the kid and caressed his cheeks.

"Really? Then I will try to look if I can see him." He said and then waved goodbye to me as he tried to pass on.
"Goodbye Lucas!" I waved goodbye as he was already far away.
"Goodbye dad!" Was the last thing I heard from the kid.

It left my mouth agape. Dad? Why did he call me dad? I just tried to walk again and find some sort of exit. I know I'm dreaming. But I shouldn't be dreaming this long.

I also saw my father.

"Father... What're you doing here in my dream?" I asked him. He laughed heartily and looked at me.
"If that's what you want to call it then it's a dream. Come walk with me."

I followed him and we were walking for a while when he stopped.
"Diavolo... Do you still think that you're dreaming?" He asked me.
"Well... Yes. Father... I really regret letting go of Lucifer. I was a jerk." I told him.

"It's good that you realized that." He told me and patted my shoulder.
"But my mistake caused me to destroy the family I built for years. And I'm regretting it. I lost Lucifer. I lost what I hold dear." I said sitting down.

"Hmh... You're right. You lost someone. You lost someone very dear to you. But you certainly didn't loose everything. Diavolo... You lost only one." He told me in riddles.

"Yes. I lost Lucifer. I lost him and I cannot bring him back." I held my head in frustration.
"Diavolo, don't feel down. I know you are devastated. But there are still people that needs you when you wake up. You have children. You still have what's very dear to you." He made me stand up and hold my hands.

"I don't usually say this but Diavolo... Wake up and pick up where you left off." He smiled as he started to disappear bit by bit.
"What?" I asked and he finally disappeared completely.

It's then that I saw a bright light. I followed it and I opened my eyes. When I did it was blinding and a few figures stood in front of me. When my sight finally became fine I saw Barbatos, Abbadon and the brothers.

"W-What happened? Why're you all here?" I asked which Asmodeus replied.
"You've been asleep for a few weeks and was sick. It's just now that you woke up. That's what Lucifer told us-" I was shocked.

"What? Did I say something shocking?" He asked and I was looking at him as if he grew three heads.
"Where is he?" I asked. I wanted to get up but I didn't get a feel of my legs.

"Don't get up yet. You haven't been walking for weeks. Lucifer is at the nursery room. Taking care Lucas." He said which shocked me more.

"Lucas? Who's Lucas?" I asked more puzzled. 😕
"The baby that you guys have... Wait oh yeah you were in bed for weeks. Not let me explain. Yes... The baby was greatly affected by the blow Lucifer received from you. The kid was also not breathing. But before he was about to be buried he cried. So he's pretty much alive now."

Lucas... Lucas is alive? Lucifer is alive? How come?
"It seems like you had a pretty bad nightmare." Asmo said and Mammon was also laughing.

"I'm fine. Can I see him?" I asked them and they agreed. I ran to the nursery where the kids stayed in the mornings when they were babies. I stopped by the door.
And there he was. He's cradling the child who was already asleep.

"Lucifer..." I whispered and he looked at the door. He smiled and put the baby down.
"Diavolo... You're finally awake." He said and approached me. I was still speechless and motionless as I looked at his pretty face.

"Is something wrong?" He asked. When he was at arm's length I pulled him to me and hugged him tightly. My Lucifer is here. He's alive. He's mine and not mad at me. Our child is also alive and well.

"I thought I lost you. I thought... You left me and I was all alone." I muttered.
"Hey... I was thinking of making you suffer about it but not this much. Calm down and let's talk about it." He said as he sat down with me.

"I... Messed up and tried to kill you in my dream. Lucas died for real and I was so bad to you. I was a monster to you and you left with Caim... Drank the forget me potion and became a human man. You didn't remember me and you thought I was a creep when I went after you. I let you go because you told me you might come back. But... 40 years passed and I haven't heard anything or seen a bit of you. Until Dainara said that I shouldn't anymore and I accepted you won't come back." I narrated.

"Oh Diavolo... It was just a nasty nightmare.  Everything is okay now." He smiled and I embraced him very tightly.
"I won't ever let you go again. I will trust you more from now on." I told him.

"That's what I wanted to hear." He said and smiled.

From the next room there was Barbatos, the previous King and Dainara.
"So this is what happened. That's why you're all talking in riddles. I should've known." The human laughed off.

"Yes. So you shouldn't tell any of this to anyone okay?" Barbatos smiled.
"Why shouldn't I? They know what you're capable of."

"Because... It will change everything if they knew. This is the one reality that everyone will be happy." He said and saw her off.

"I'll visit again. Not now but soon." She waved goodbye to her friends.
