I rolled over again.

I couldn't fall asleep, and I had rehearsals tomorrow, and I needed rest. I heard some buzzing noises, but I thought nothing of it. I kept flipping over and over until I grew tired of doing it. Sighing, I got up and headed to the kitchen.

I made me a glass of water, which made me use the restroom three minutes after drinking it. When I came out of the restroom. The buzzing noises was louder…stronger. I went into the bedroom. To find bugs swarming all over my bed. Bed Bugs. I screamed.

"Crap!" He screamed. A dark figure came out of the shadows. He was dressed in all black.

"I was so close." He said.

"Who are you?" I asked. "I'm going to call the cops."

"Relax, I don't want to hurt you." He whispered.

I looked at him curiously. "What do you want?" I asked. He smiled. "I want you to help and assist me." He said, with an evil grin. "How?" I asked.

"First, you'll help me find the Winchester boys," the guy said.

"Oh, forgive me, I'm being so rude, aren't I?" He asked. "I'm Lucifer…an old pal of theirs…especially Sam."

We stood there, in silence. "Well, that was nice, let's go!" He said. "Wait, I don't know where they are staying!" I said. He smiled. "That makes you like me, let's go." He pointed to the door. "Can I at least change?" I asked.

"Of course." He whispered.

I changed quickly.

It took us all morning, and nearly all afternoon, but I found Dean, who was sitting outside at a café place. We got out of the taxi, and went to him. "Dean, this man wants to speak with you." I said.

Dean looked up. "Sorry, on vacation, maybe later." He said, he was looking at the newspaper.

"Hello, Dean," Lucifer remarked. Dean put down his newspaper and stared in awe at Lucifer. "What the-?" He began. "Remember me?" He asked.

Dean looked angry. "Can I go now?" I asked. "I'm late for practice."

"You promised!" Lucifer barked at me. "You know how easy it is, for a bunch of bed bugs to attack?"

"That's you?" Dean asked. "Why would you do something so amateurish?"

Lucifer rolled his eyes. "Don't make me do something you might regret." Lucifer said, with clenched teeth.

"Just release the girl," Dean said, standing. "And maybe I'll stop." Lucifer smiled. "Then, maybe I'll let the girl go." He said back. Dean rolled his eyes. My phone rang. I looked at it. Derek. Great, probably calling me to fire me. "I've gotta go." I said to Lucifer. "Fine." He said. "You did lead me to one of the Winchesters, he can take it from here." He said.

I left to rehearsal.

"Where have you been?" Derek barked.

"Sorry, family drama." I whispered.

"Oh, please don't tell me Dev has been around again." .
