United Since The Fall

Chapter 2 The date

Alex looks at himself in the mirror as he brushes some hair back, a bit nervous about this whole thing since, as much as it seems he meant it, he isn't sure if Lucifer actually meant for it to be a date. He takes a breath, speaking softly to himself, "It's okay, Alexander, it's okay...it's just you guys simply hanging out..that's all.." he says, looking into his own eyes and smiling a bit. Doing one more look over of his outfit, he was wearing a black T-shirt with a red flannel jacket, his sleeves were rolled up to his elbows with black fingerless gloves on. On his lower half, he has dark grey jeans with black boots on. He gave himself a nod before speaking softly again. "I got this." He says before heading out the door, feeling at least semi confidant in himself.

"What am I gonna do?!" Lucifer shouts, realizing if he doesn't get ready soon, he'll be late for this date. Karma, a good friend of Lucifer, lays on the devil's bed, her head upside down as it hangs off the edge as she lays on her back. "Well first," she starts, "Calm down a bit." She says, watching as the devil takes a breath before looking at her for the second part of her thought process.  "Good, and second, tell him you might be a bit late and then get ready instead of freaking out. You guys are friends, I'm sure he just wants to have a good time with his friend." She says, her words giving Lucifer some peace of mind as he takes out his phone and texting Alex, telling him he might be a bit late, and then put his phone on a nearby dresser. He then starts looking for something to wear. Eventually settling on a dark grey button-up with the top few buttons undone and black ripped jeans with fishnets underneath and red converse. He puts on a bit of eyeliner before he looks to Karma, "How do I look?" He asks, still a bit worried. "You look great." She says, giving him a thumbs up. He nods before turning to leave, not wanting to make Alex wait any longer.

(Okay now it's time for the real date)
Alex sat at the bench in the park, his leg tapping on the ground as he feels tempted to have a cigarette but doesn't, not wanting to stink of smoke when Lucifer gets there. He looks around, glad the two decided to meet in the overworld instead of somewhere in Hell since, well, you know, it's Hell. Not the best place for a...well...is it a date? He wasn't sure but Alex snapped out of his thoughts as he noticed a figure in the distance, his eyes lighting up as he realized who it was. He stood up from the bench as Lucifer drew closer, a smile on the fallen angel's face. Once he was within earshot, Alex spoke. "Hey, Luci, how are you?" He asks. "I'm doing well, you?" Lucifer answers. "I'm okay." The taller responded. "That's good, so what would you like to do?" The devil questioned, cocking his head to the side slightly. "Uh..maybe we could go see a movie?" He asks, unable to think of anything else. "Hm...sure, it sounds fun. What kind of movie?" The devil smiled as he asked that question, not having seen a movie In a long time. Alex thinks for a moment, trying to guess what kind of movie the devil himself would be into. "Maybe a...horror movie?" He asks, knowing he, himself, doesn't do well with them but wanting Lucifer to have fun. "Sure, sounds wonderful." Lucifer agrees, smiling softly. "Let's get going, shall we?" The devil says. Alex nods, following Lucifer as he starts to walk to the theater.
