Warning, this story is going to be very agnsty

Lucifer, the avatar of pride, was visiting the human realm. His brothers were giving him some alone time with the person he had once loved. He was just sitting there, not caring how much time has passed since he arrived. He couldn't count the number of times he read the name off of the cold stone. It had been 5 years since she died, yet she was on his mind everyday

There was a hole in his chest that felt like it could never be filled. The same chest she once put their head on, the same chest she put a hand in when she wanted to feel his heartbeat. It feels like her hand is still there, but it isn’t, and that’s why he feels so empty. His chest feels heavy and his knees feel weak, he had never felt this way about anyone else before, and this was why he distanced himself from everyone, so he wouldn’t get hurt anymore. She always said that life was all about who we were with, not what you do. Now, nothing felt worth doing, because she wasn’t beside him. Her perfection was now just a memory.

He felt the raindrops begin to hit his face and hair. His pride was keeping him from crying. He felt so selfish, he stole her human life away, she could've had a long life, safe, healthy, and away from him. All of these thoughts were running through his head and it was driving him insane. He placed his head in his hands and whispered “Are you still here…? Are you happy? You said I could always talk to you...Can you still hear me?” He felt his hands begin to tremble and his voice began to break.

“...Why didn't you tell me…?” He wiped his tears as they began to stream down his face. “You should’ve told me how you were feeling…” It was beginning to pour, he was soaked, but he didn’t notice and didn't care. “If you told me… We could have come here, your life would’ve been so much better, longer… our daughter...Dead” His voice trailed off.

Suddenly, Lucifer felt a gentle hand being placed on his shoulder, “Lucifer... You need to go home.. It’s been three days..” He heard Simeon’s gentle voice whisper. “She is my home..” He croaked, his voice low and sore from crying. “I know Lucifer… We all miss her, but you need to come home” Simeon whispered, trying to comfort him. He finally agreed to leave, and when he stood up, he pulled Simeon into a tight hug. “I’m sorry, Simeon. I’m so sorry..” Simeon hugged him back, confused, and somber, “Sorry for what?” “Everything...For being so selfish I was cast out... If I hadn’t been cast out she wouldn’t have died...I killed her.I killed my Child…”He whimpered. “You were going to have a kid?”Simeon asked softly. Lucifer nodded. “I killed one person who ever loved me, even with all of my flaws and everything I’ve done… I killed my family...” His voice wavered as he trembled. Simeon smiled sadly. He rubbed small circles on Lucifer’s back, trying to soothe him. “I’m sorry” Lucifer whispered.

Later that day, Simeon escorted Lucifer home to Devildom. “Do you want me to stay?” He asked softly. Lucifer shook his head, “No, I’m sorry for bothering you, Simeon” He stated, his voice still hoarse. Simeon nodded, “I’ll go see everyone before I leave then” Simeon stated before soon walking away.

Lucifer made his way back to his room. He felt angry with himself. With the world. How could the world orld her her from him? How could the world be so cruel? The second he got there he couldn’t help himself, sounds of crashing and shattering rang throughout the hall. He was destroying everything his room held. The only things that remained was a picture of her, and his bed but it was on its side. In the end, he ended up sitting down, crying with one of her sweaters in his hands, holding it close. He kept his emotions bottled up for so long to the point that it was crashing down on him.

His brothers busted into his room, Beel, Satan, Asmo, and Mammon came running in. The brothers were shocked at his state and what he had done, they’ve never seen Lucifer like that. Beel and Mammon were silent as they understood what was going on. The 2 went to go help clean up the room. Satan and Asmo walked over and sat down next to Lucifer. Satan glanced over at Asmo as if saying “Let me talk to him”. Asmo quickly understood and got up to go help Mammon and Beel clean up. Lucifer didn’t seem to notice any of them, he was in a trance. He jumped when he felt Satan place his hand on his shoulder.

“Get out” He mumbled. He didn’t want them to see him like this, his pride was definitely shattered. Tears continued to stream down his face. His arms began to shake as he transformed into his demon form. “Leave me alone. Get.Out.” He hissed.

“Lucifer, It’s going to be okay” Satan then transformed. “We’re your brothers, You don’t need to worry, we’re not going to tell everyone,” Satan stated. He placed his arm over his shoulder. “You can trust us, you should be telling us these things, it’ll all be okay,” he said.
