Chapter Four:

Note: Grace and Lucifer have known each other for a few weeks. (I'm very sorry this took so long to post)

Grace did her usual routine of showering, getting dressed, and ready for work. Once she got there all she could think of was her date with Nick. She was so excited she hadn't been on a date since she was dating Derek. Grace's heart kept fluttering at the thought of her date with Nick, she kept looking at the clock, and each time she looked at the clock only a few seconds had passed.

Grace kept thinking a about her date with Nick and wondered where he was taking her. He only said that she should wear something fancy. She finished cleaning off a table and looked back at the clock. She silently counted the seconds 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. As soon as her shift ended she rushed home and got ready for her date. She was almost down applying her make-up when she heard a knock on the door. Grace finished applying her lipstick and went to answer the door, "Nick" she said a smile crossing her lips, she only ever seen Nick wear the same outfit but right now he was wearing a suit. Lucifer smiled as soon as he saw Grace he though she looked beautiful in her dark green dress.

"You look beautiful" Lucifer stated he was nervous he been in hell for many millennium and he hadn't interacted with very many woman with the exception of Lilith but she was more like a fling than anything else. "Let me get my purse" Grace stated she opened the door and Lucifer walked inside. He watched as she walked into her bedroom and pick up a matching green purse.

"Ready to go?" Lucifer questioned Grace smiled "where are we going?" she questioned. Lucifer looked down at Grace and said "that restaurant in town La jolie nuit". "Will that be okay with you?" Lucifer asked. Grace smiled and said "yes" chuckling a bit like he said something foolish, she grabbed his arm, and walked out the door. Lucifer was still nervous he was afraid of making a mistake, Grace was the only one who was in a relationship, and Lucifer only ever slept with Lilith their relationship was nothing more than that.

Grace and Lucifer were now seated at a table and waiting to order their food. Grace was finding the silence uncomfortable "Nick what can you tell me about your siblings?" she asked. Lucifer looked over at her "My older brother Michael and I were close but that was a long time ago" Lucifer stated. Grace noticed he looked upset "what happened?" she asked hoping she wasn't crossing any lines. "We got into a heated argument" Lucifer stated, "about?" Grace asked. Lucifer opened his mouth then closed it what was he going to tell her? The whole truth was out of the question, she either think he was crazy or worse she'd believe him and runaway because of his true identity. Lucifer thought about what he was going to tell Grace.

"My father wanted me to do something… I didn't agree with him" Lucifer began then then suddenly felt guilty he had said the worst and most vile insults about humans when he disagreed with his father and brother. Now here he was on a date and possibly falling in love with a human Lucifer continued "things got so bad that my younger brother Gabriel left home". Grace noticed Nick looked guilty and upset, she immediately felt guilty for bringing up his family. She grabbed his hand and gave it a light squeeze, Lucifer looked down enjoying the tingling feeling that he felt.

He was confused fallen angels weren't able to feel sensation at all in fact even angels couldn't feel certain sensations. The only way they could feel them was if a human's soul was pure and they either had to be kind hearted or a virgin. Lucifer kept staring at his hand his fingers were entangled with Grace's, he knew she was very kind but the warmth and tingling sensation he was feeling from Grace's touch was stronger than he was expecting.

He gripped her hand tighter he wanted the feeling to stay. It took Lucifer a minute to realize why Grace's soul was so pure. She was a virgin. Lucifer wasn't sure why he noticed this before, he had mindlessly assumed like all other humans she slept with her ex-boyfriend. Grace looked at Nick and smiled softly seeing that he was now relaxed. Their waiter came and took down their order then Grace and Lucifer turned their attention back to each other. "I've talked about my siblings. What about yours" Lucifer said. Grace sighed "I was never close with my sisters" she stated.

"Why not?" Lucifer asked "Jane was eleven years older than me, Emily was ten years and Mary was eight years older, so I wasn't able to hang out with them." She finished "when did they die?" Lucifer asked "they died when I was thirteen" she responded. "How old are you now?" he asked he noticed her cheeks reddened "twenty" she stated. "How old are you?" she asked Grace thought Nick looked to be in his thirties. Lucifer was trying to think of how old his vessel was.

He couldn't tell Grace his real age "forty four" Lucifer replied, Grace frowned slightly if her parents were aware of her dating a man twenty four years older than she was. Grace was sure they'd have a heart attack but she didn't care. She really liked Nick and hoped he felt the same way. The food came and Lucifer went back to his uncomfortable manor. Eating wasn't a necessary activity and he's never had to do it before. "Nick?" Grace asked "yes?" he asked he was holding her hand again enjoying the feeling of having her small hand in his.

"I have to use the restroom" she said he looked at her and said "sorry". He watched as she got up and left. After several minutes she returned, Lucifer smiled softly when she sat back down. He grabbed her hand again loving the feeling. He was becoming addicted to this and Lucifer knew it could become a problem but at this moment he didn't care. They continued eating and talking while still holding hands, Grace never knew she could feel so much joy from a simple thing such as hand holding.

Their waiter came back and gave them the check. Lucifer paid and Grace and he left the restaurant then Lucifer walked Grace back home. They were at her door now "I had a really nice time" Grace said Lucifer smiled because she genuinely meant it. "I did too" he stated he wanted to go out with her again, "Can we do this again?" he asked. Grace's face lit up "I would love that" she said Lucifer looked up and down her face and softly kissed her lips.

Grace didn't kiss him back and Lucifer was sure she was going to pull away but she didn't instead she wrapped her arms around his neck. He wrapped his arms around her waist and brought her small body closer to his. After what seemed like hours the pulled away "good night Grace" Lucifer said quietly she kissed his cheek and said "good night Nick". She opened her door and waved goodbye to him. Once again Lucifer had made himself invisible and watched Grace as she walked around her. She was ready for bed with her make-up all washed off. She crawled into bed and placed two fingers to her lips, she smiled softly, and turned to her side she was still thinking about her kiss.

Note: In cannon I don't know what Lilith and Lucifer did with each other but in my story they used to sleep with one another.

Note: In my stories universe there are seven archangels and Metatron and Zachariah are one of them. Michael, Lucifer, Raphael, Gabriel are still archangels. My version of the archangels: Metatron, Michael, Lucifer, Raphael, Gabriel, Zachariah, and Remiel (she will make an appearance later).

Note: On my page you can find what Grace Sisters looks like. I only own Grace and her sisters

Note: The restaurant is French and in English it translates to the pretty or beautiful night (I made the name up {at least I don't think there's a restaurant named that} sorry if it's lame)
