Author's Notes: Okay so today starts the first post of a lot of updates of new and old things, but I stated to start things off with a prompt that I saw earlier. Now this story is pretty short and sweet, and probably not even what the person wanted, but it feels the prompt and helps me with my writer's warmup. So, I hope you like it. The poetry used in this story was written by me almost 13 years ago. This is also a snippet of a larger Lucifer story I am writing. It will be added to a series list once I start posting it in order. Remember comments are love.

Chloe woke up feeling refreshed. She didn't know what had come over her last night, she told her husband that it was the chicken that he had made, but then he went on and on about how he was the best cook in the world. How he wanted her to know that he had learned from the greats, and from of the worst cooks ever so he knew how to keep the balance. She didn't have the heart to tell him that she was feeling well, so she just ate the chicken. She loved seeing him smiling.

"Good morning darling." He greeted her with a kiss.

"Good morning husband." She smiled.

They had only been married about three months, but it was the five years it took for them to get there. Two years of her thinking that he was a little eccentric thinking he was the devil, one year of her coming to the terms of finding out he was devil, and finally two years of him wanting to court her properly, so that she could get use to his world. She was all in now, and so was he. He had given up so much for her but gained a lot more in the process.

"Are you better?" he asked failing at hiding his concern.

"Yes, all better. Told you all I needed was a little sleep."

"Good, the spawn was worried. I'm off to do business, I'll be home a little late tonight. I just need to make a little stop first."

"What is it?"

"It's nothing dangerous if that's what you're thinking. No, I think tonight is going to be special, I'm going to bring home a surprise for my girls."

Chloe smiled at the sound of that. She loved how he called them "his girls", sometimes she didn't know who was more in love with him, she or Trixie.

"I'm late." He told her once more kissing her and getting out of bed.

That's when she noticed for the first time that he wasn't dressed in his usual suit. It was more of a casual ensemble. That meant trouble of another sort, and then he smirked at her, big trouble.

"Alright, I will take you being late, but I want you to tell Maze to keep you safe."

"We're-"
"I don't care what the two of you are up to, I'm not Dan. I don't spaz out over every little thing the two of you are up to, I understand that she was forged in hell. She also needs to realize that she's his wife he has the right to worry." She cut him off.

"I promise, we are up to only the best of things. You be good." Then he exited the room.

She still felt a bit off, but it was time to get up and face the morning. She opened her closet and decided on what to wear. That was one of the many things that had changed since she married The Prince of Darkness, she was now known to wear a dress or two.

She walked in the bathroom and looked at her disheveled appearance and immediately grabbed a brush. Her hair was all over the place. She thought about how Dan would never kiss her until after she grabbed a toothbrush, but Lucifer just goes for it, all in. That was why he was a good man, she smiled putting the toothpaste on her brush.

The feeling hit her like a stab to the gut. The twisting and clenching, she had been told the story a million times by her mother. She knew immediately what was happening.

"Oh no." she steadied herself on the sink.

She felt the trickle down her thigh and she didn't want to look, but she did.

"Trixie!" she shouted.

-H-

Lucifer was supposed to meet Maze to discuss some things, but he had to make this stop first. He had tasted it on her lips that night, but this morning it was heavier than the night before. He was excited, he was going to be a dad.

End Notes: This story is complete, and all will be posted tonight I'm just going to space out the chapters to give folks time to read. It starts off kind of sad but there will be a happy ending. The poetry is in the next chapter.
