I don't own Lucifer, wish I did though. My first attempt on multi chaptered story, be nice hope you enjoy.
How could this of happened, he never had accidents she had seeing him drive many times before.
She wanted to trust him again, wanted to be friends again. So, she had asked him a very serious favor, she needed him to watch Trixie for the day. Both her and Dan were going to be busy all day, and no one could watch Trixie. They hadn't spoken in so long, hadn't seeing each other in so long she didn't know wat he would say. His response shocked her, that had been on of the hardest conversations she ever had with anybody.
He had answered after the first ring.
"Detective"
"Lucifer, I need to talk to you." Came Chloe's reply.
"Now you need to talk to me. How long has it been, you ready talk how instead of talking to me, you listened to a man you had never met. How you listened to someone tell you I'm evil that I need to be killed, and you readily listened to him and never talked to me never gave me the benefit of the doubt. I thought we were friends I thought we were more." Was Lucifer's angry response.
"Fine I was a bitch I should have talked to you; we had been working together for more than three years you did deserve the benefit of the doubt you are right. I promise I will come to the penthouse in the next few days and we will sit down and talk, I will not leave until we either have resolved all of our problems or you decide you can no longer trust me is that ok? But I really need to talk to you right now?" Was Chloe's long breathed reply.
"Are you sure its wise to make a deal with the devil Detective? Because it sounds like you are offering to sit down and talk to me in exchange for a yet unnamed favor, is that right?" Came Lucifer's intrigued reply.
"No, I'm not making a deal with the Devil I am making a deal with my friend Lucifer. At least I hope he still considers himself my friend." Was Chloe's hopeful reply.
"Alright Detective what is it you desire from me? Please tell me at least you are going to be having some fun out of this favor?" questioned Lucifer
"No, Lucifer it's not fun its work, I'm needed in court all day tomorrow. So, I'm hoping you can watch Trixie all day tomorrow, I would pick her up around 8. Can you do this for me please?" Came Chloe's very unexpected reply
"No, I can't watch the child, I'm sorry." Was Lucifer's curt reply.
"What? Why not? Please I really need this." Replied a shocked Chloe.
"One, you are afraid of me. Two, you obviously don't trust me. So, how is it you would ask me to watch the most important person in your life when you can't even be in the same room with me. I will not risk something happening to her and you hating me even more." Lucifer's reply shocked her more than anything. He was afraid of her hating him even more if something were to happen to Trixie. He still cared; she was the bitch that hurt more than any physical punch ever could.
"Lucifer, if you can't do this for me do this for Trixie. She misses you so much, she keeps asking why we haven't seeing you anymore. She wants to know when you are coming over again, so please At least give her a good bye, if we can't recover from this than say good bye to a little girl who didn't do anything to you. All she ever did to you was love you, please Lucifer." Chloe was begging at the end.
"I will do it for her, but Detective If by the end of the week you have not come to LUX, I will come to you. Whether I find you at the precinct or at your apartment I will not care. Are we agreed?" Came Lucifer's subtly threatening reply.
That's how we got to me hurrying to the hospital to meet Dan where we were told Trixie and Lucifer were. I'm scared to think something happened to my daughter, but more scared to what actually happened Lucifer would never let anything happened to anyone he cared about.
She didn't want to doubt him but she was scared for her little girl, she didn't want to react wrong and loose her friend forever.
As soon as she got to the hospital, she saw Dan standing outside waiting for her.
"What do you know?" asked Dan
"Only that they were in a bad accident, that's all they told me. Besides what hospital they were taken to." Replied Chloe.
"Dan Espinoza and Chloe Decker here for Lucifer Morningstar and Beatrice Espinoza." Dan asked a nurse.
"Room 2215" quickly replied the nurse.
When we got to the room, we saw something we definitely didn't expect. A healthy Trixie, minus a bump on her head, and an unconscious Lucifer.
"Trixie baby, are you ok?" Chloe asked quietly.
"He protected me mommy, Lucifer protected me." Replied a quietly sobbing Trixie.
"Have you been by his side he whole time monkey?" asked a shocked Dan.
Their fears had been nonfunded as Lucifer made sure Trixie was relatively uninjured. He had kept his word, again, that Trixie would be safe. Apparently at great personal cost, besides been unconscious he had an apparently broken arm.
"Yes Daddy, I haven't let go of his hand either. I want him to feel safe, just like he, made sure I was safe. Is Lucifer going to be ok, mom dad?" replied a worried sobbing Trixie.
"We are not sure monkey, but we will ask the doctor soon ok babe." Replied a concerned Chloe.
In all of the time she had known Lucifer, she had never seen him this quiet or still. She would have preferred to be fending off inappropriate sex innuendos or lewd comments. She wanted her friend to tell her how he kept his word, how he could be trusted or how she didn't have to be afraid. But, no he was in a hospital bed unconscious and non-responsive.
Which raised more questions then it answered, he was supposed to be the Devil. How was it that he was unconscious, she had only seen him bleed two times let alone get knocked out. Did this mean there was another angel in LA looking for Lucifer, were they in any danger. Unfortunately, all of her fears or questions couldn't be answered until the pain in her ass club owning handsome as could be Devil woke up. Which according to the doctors they weren't sure when that would be.
"Trixie, monkey, your dad and I are going to be right outside talking will be right back. Please don't let go of Lucifer's hand ok baby." Chloe quietly stated.
"Ok mommy I won't, I promise." Replied an obedient Trixie.
As she escorted her to the outside of the room, she heard her daughter promise Lucifer that she was right there, she wasn't going anywhere.
"What is it Chloe?" asked Dan quietly as soon as they were outside the room.
"Dan, I need you to stay here with Lucifer. I will take Trixie home tonight, to let her rest and recover and will bring her back tomorrow." Stated a very serious Chloe.
"What? Why me? Shouldn't you be staying; you and Lucifer are friends or used to be before this falling out. Shouldn't you be here so when he wakes up, he knows you still care and are here for him." Asked a curious Dan.
"Look Dan I really want to make things better with Lucifer, especially after today. But Trixie should be our priority and I really don't think Lucifer will wake up today. Look I will take Trixie home tonight, get her cleaned up feed her, and make sure she is ok and tomorrow you take her and spend some time with her." Replied a very serious Chloe.
"Ok I will stay with him tonight, and I will call should anything change. But Chloe if he wakes up, you really should fix things with him. I have seen you this last few weeks, and you are not yourself, everyone can tell you hate not having Lucifer around. I might not like him, but even I can tell there is something going on between you two. I hate to admit it, but you and I never had as strong as a connection as you and Lucifer have, even Trixie adores him. Even if he denies it, and acts all awkward around her, I can tell he cares for our daughter. So, I will stay tonight only and only if, you talk to Lucifer. I want my friend back, and you haven't been the same since Lucifer and you had that massive falling out." Came Dans long winded reply.
"I'm sorry Dan I didn't know it was affecting me this much, yes I promise I will talk to him as soon as his back home and recovered. I'm actually scared Dan, that I might have pushed Lucifer too far, I worry he won't be able to forgive me. I hurt him and he takes care of my daughter and protects her. What kind of a friend am I, I feel so ashamed of myself for doing this to him." Replied Chloe as she quietly walked back into the hospital room.
"Trixie babe, come with me lets go home." Chloe said quietly while looking at the eerily prone Lucifer.
"NO, I'm not leaving him" was Trixie's firm reply.
"Monkey, I will stay with him. You go with mommy, get some rest eat some food, tomorrow you will be with me. If there any changes we promise you your mom will call us and we will come back ok. He won't be alone, one of us will always be with him. Baby you need to rest please go with mommy." Pleaded Dan. He couldn't believe he was negotiating with his 9-year-old daughter.
"Really, is that why he hasn't been to the house lately. No more game nights, no more dinner and movies. I haven't seeing him in weeks, mom hasn't smiled at al in those two weeks. You have been happier dad. Are you happy he is no longer coming over? Today when we were in the car, I could tell he was doing everything I asked, he is saying goodbye isn't he? You guys don't want him in our lives anymore right, he let me hug him and he never likes my hugs. He didn't say it out loud but he is leaving and I don't mean LA, we will never see Lucifer again. Its all your fault, I hate you both." and with the end of her rant Trixie turned and ran with tears streaming down her face.
"I will catch up with her, and take her home. Stay with Lucifer, I will keep you updated on my conversation with Trixie. Maybe she is right maybe we have been unfair to Lucifer especially me, but I'm done, when he wakes up, I will fix my problems with Lucifer come hell or high water. For Trixie's sake you probably should too. Good night Dan." Having said my peace, I turned and chased after Trixie.
One way or another I was going to get both Trixie's and Lucifer's trust back.
