How Rapture by Lauren Kate should have really ended.
This is right after "God" tells Daniel, and Lucinda that they will lose their wings, and be cast down to Earth.
"But, you just got your wings" Daniel says to me, "I know" I reply, "that's why I won't miss them, you've had them for a while" I will always chose love, always.
"I really don't think, becoming human would solve any of our problems, we might not even meet, Luce" he replies. I'm starting to doubt his love for me. "Yes, but if our love is strong enough, we'll always be together" I try to convince him.
"Luce" he begins but is cut off my God's booming voice, "Well? Have you made up your mind yet?" he asks, why so nosy huh?
"Tick, tock, tick, tock" Lucifer chimes in, I turn and glare at him, he smirks. "Luce, I just don't think" Daniel starts, "No Daniel, our love is eternal, I thought you knew that" I continue, "You waited billions of years for me, why can't you wait one more life time? If you love me, you would love that" I'm seriously angry right now, doesn't he believe in our love like I do? "Have you chosen?" God asks again irritated. I didn't know God could sound irritated. Before, I can say anything, Daniel speaks up. "I've made my choice Lord" he says, I feel relieved, all the stress flowing out of me, "I chose love the first time my lord, and now I've realized my mistake" there's an audible gasp around the room, and I suck in a breath. What?!
"For hundreds of years I waited for Lucinda, your creations and now I have come back to you if you will have me" even though he could stop he continues, "Love, I find is hard; it's full of non-stop work, and effort and even the tiniest of mistakes could set it off. Love is not consistent; it is not immortal unlike adoration". I've stopped breathing, I've stopped feeling, my heart has completely stopped beating. God beams, and welcomes Daniel in with open arms, heaven erupts in applause and for a while I'm not the center of attention. I look around to find that the faces of my friends are all astonished, except for Cam who looks rather pleased, and is looking right at me. His smile widens, he mouths "good luck" before turning away. Soon, the crowd quiets and all eyes are on me again. "Now, my dear Lucinda" he says, "what is your choice" Daniel looks at with hope, his eyes gleaming, he thinks I'm going to pick Heaven. My sorrow and despair is replaced with anger, and hatred. Do now, regret later I keep repeating to myself, "I chose Lucifer" I say, my voice more confident then I'd thought, I turn and smile at Lucifer who looks stunned, and unbelievably happy. I look back at Daniel and give him one of my widest grins; he looks astonished, and rather depressed which only makes me smile wider. The Hell side of Heaven erupts in cheers, and applause, and Lucifer beckons me to come closer, I walk up to him.
"Welcome to the dark side, my love" he tells me, I can't help but smile. My life's been a wild ride, I fell in love at least four times, I've made enough mistakes, broken enough hearts. I realized what love really means, and what it is to love; how much work, and trouble it is. And no matter how much you love somebody, you can't really love unless you're loved in return. So, I've decided to come back to the one person who always loved me, and changed the course of humankind for me, even though some part of my heart will always belong with Daniel, and now that I'll be closer to Cam than ever I think I can make it. I've gone on a long journey, and now I'm back to where I'd begun but this time I'm planning on staying for a while.
