Chapter 10: Sweet Child of Mine

Sam stood with his daughter in his arms, unsure of what to do. He looked at the baby girl, she had some thin blond hair and… she was beautiful. There was no other word to describe her. Not much time later, Dean returned with Castiel. "Sam, are you awake?" Dean called as he got in the motel. "Come on, we've got to go." He found Sam with his back turned on him.

When Sam turned around Dean was surprised to see him with a baby in his arms. "What the hell are you doing with a baby?" Dean approached Sam, followed by Castiel.

Sam didn't know how he was going to explain the whole story so he just limited to answer Dean's question. "Lucifer dropped her here." He merely said.

"Why? Who is she?"

Sam knew his brother was going to ask that and he wouldn't be pleased with the answer, but he wouldn't lie to Dean. "Apparently she's… my daughter."

"Your what?" Dean said surprised and confused. Did Sam had been tricked by some monster to get laid and accidently had knocked her up, like Dean did? "Who's the mother?"

Sam was very uncomfortable with that conversation, but the soon he get it out of his chest, the better. "Lucifer," he said in a lower tone that this regular voice.

For a second Dean was static with the mouth open. "What?" He said when he was able to talk. "You… and Lucifer?"

Sam nodded shyly.

Dean passed a hand trough his hair. "When did that happened?"

"The time I set him free…" Sam said.

"I knew something had happened that night!" He said angrily. "That son of a bitch fucking raped you." Dean was clearly freaking out. Sam wasn't going to explain Lucifer hadn't really raped him. Well, he did at the time but it didn't really bothered Sam anymore. "The next time I see him, I'm gonna kill him." Sam didn't take Dean seriously; he couldn't kill Lucifer, he was just in shock and upset. Then Dean's mind started working again and he noticed it wouldn't have been possible for Lucifer to get pregnant. "How's that even possible?"

"Lucifer was possessing a girl at the time." Sam explained.

"How can you be so calm?" Dean sounded upset for Sam seemed to be okay with it.

"What do you want me to do? What is done is done, Dean." No matter what he did, he couldn't go back. "I'm trying to get used to this situation. Getting pissed won't help!" Sam raised his voice a little and Aurea started moving. She didn't seem pleased so Sam tried to calm her down.

Dean shook his head, he still couldn't believe in what was happening. When Sam turned his attention to his daughter, Dean looked at Castiel who hadn't said a word about the matter. In fact he was suspiciously calm. "Did you know about this?" Dean asked a bit hard.

Castiel took a moment to answer. "Yes," he confirmed. "I was able to see her through Lucifer's true form."

"Well, thanks for your input." Dean said ironically.

"Lucifer made me not to tell you. I had no choice." Castiel tried to excuse himself. But even if he had told them, it wouldn't have changed anything.

Later, they went to buy all the things Sam needed for his daughter. For her safety, they returned to Rufus' cabin and stopped hunting for a while. As the time passed Dean was getting more used to the situation. Even once in a while he helped Sam feeding his niece, and he knew Dean secretly enjoyed it. Sam did all other things, changed her, bathed her, and shushed her when she cried.

Although Aurea wasn't completely human she behaved like one, which meant she was most of time sleeping and only woke up, crying, to eat. They had bought a nursery for her but most of the times she slept in Sam's bed, especially at night. Little Aurea slept close to Sam, right next to his chest and he put his arm around the baby girl, creating a comfy and warm nest. Sam liked to have her close to him, it made him feel safe and… happy.

It had been two weeks since Aurea was born and Dean decided to star hunting again. Just him and Castiel, while Sam stayed with his daughter. For the first job he chose a close one, so they wouldn't be away for a long time.

Dean and Castiel had been gone for one day. Sam was preparing the lunch in the kitchen, while Aurea slept in the nursery in Sam's bedroom. Suddenly he heard his baby cry. Sam went upstairs wondering why she was crying; she had already eaten and Sam had changed her…

"Hey, baby girl." Sam said softly and picked her up and joined her to his chest, it usually calmed her down. But this time it wasn't working, she kept crying. Sam knew all her types of cries and that one was different from all the others he had heard. "What is it, Aurea?" He gave her a tender kiss in her head. "What do you want?" he asked, although he knew he wouldn't get an answer.

At least not from her. "I know what she wants."Lucifer appeared in the bedroom for Sam's surprise. For some reason Aurea's cry became softer. Lucifer approached him asking to hold her. Sam was a bit resilient at first but then he gave him the baby.

"What?"Sam asked curious. He was surprised to see how carefully Lucifer was holding her.

"Me." Lucifer told him. "She missed me," One thing was certain, Aurea stopped crying. "didn't you?" Lucifer asked his daughter who was looking up at him. Then she blinked a few times and soon fell asleep comfortably in Lucifer's arms. Sam saw a little smile in Lucifer's face.

"How did you know?"Sam asked.

"I felt it. During the pregnancy we created a bond. Now I can feel what she feels and I can find her anywhere no matter how distant we are." Lucifer put back his daughter on the nursery.

Lucifer went downstairs and Sam followed him. He could see Lucifer's expression changing. The adoration look he had when he was holding their daughter changed to his usual cold expression. It became even more evident as they stepped away from the bedroom. "You enjoyed it." Sam said with an amused little smile when they got to the living room.

"More than I should." Lucifer confirmed not pleased.

Sam stared at him seriously. "What do you mean?" He still asked, although the most likely was for Lucifer not to answer.

"She makes me weaker."

"I thought that was the idea." Sam said confused.

"I'm not talking about my powers, I mean psychologically weak. This entire situation brought me feelings that I hadn't felt in a really long time; it affects me. She… you… You've became my weakness." Lucifer confessed, looking at Sam.

Sam was surprised; it had been the most, perhaps the only time Lucifer was slightly emotional. He didn't say anything, he wasn't sure of what to say. But Lucifer had let his guard down and Sam knew he was going to leave again. Leave them… for God knows how long. "Can I ask one thing?" Sam said before Lucifer started saying goodbye. Lucifer nodded. "Why- how was I able to see you at her birth?"

"It had nothing to do with your psychic powers." That was usually the nature of his visions.

"I know. That's why I'm asking." His vision had had a different nature and Sam wanted to know what it was.

Lucifer got closer to him with his usual flirt look, which Sam tried to ignore. "You saw it because of the bond you have. Through it you can see and feel what's happening in certain occasions. And I guess that was an important occasion."

"You made me see it." Sam said like he had figured it out.

"No. Aurea made you see it." Lucifer corrected him.

"But how? She didn't even know me."

"Of course she did." Sam looked confused. Lucifer put a hand on Sam's shoulder and made him sit on the couch. Sam found it odd and before he could say something, Lucifer sat comfortably on his lap. "I introduced you to her." Lucifer kept explaining. Sam somehow didn't bother with the devil's action. "Remember the time we were like this?"

Sam remembered; it had happened about two months ago. "Yes." It had been the time his feelings for Lucifer had changed.

"During that time she created a bond with you. I believe she wanted you to be present at her birth…"

Sam was surprised, but it made sense; Aurea was much calmer when he was around, she usually cried when Dean was holding her but never when he was holding her, not until that day. So that had been the reason why Lucifer had been with him that day… to make Aurea get to know him, as her father.

"Why me? Of all humans… why did you choose me?" Sam wanted to know why Lucifer had decided to have a child with him.

"Who else would be? One of those ordinary, filthy, broken humans?" Lucifer let out his hate for the human race. Sam thought he was included in that group, maybe except the 'ordinary', the last thing he was, was normal. "There's also some similarity between us, in our lives…" Lucifer had told him about it once, during the apocalypse. Sam didn't agree much, though. "And after being alone for so many years, you were the only human I spent more time with. The one I knew better."

Sam was looking at Lucifer's ice blue eyes and they didn't seem so cold as before. Some time ago Sam had started to enjoy Lucifer's presence… and he missed him when he wasn't around, even though he didn't admit that. Sam wondered if he also had a bond with Lucifer.

Sam felt a warmth rising in his body, there was also the heat coming from Lucifer's body, and the constant feeling, as if he… wanted Lucifer. As if he was reading his mind, Lucifer kissed him passionately. He brought a hand to Sam's face, deepening the kiss. Their tongues touched several times and the fire inside Sam lighted, he grabbed Lucifer by the hips and pulled him closer; with the pressure of Lucifer's body, Sam's breathing became faster. Sometime later when Sam's desire was partially satisfied, Lucifer pulled away. While Sam normalized his breath, Lucifer told him, in a whisper, close to his face "Yes, we have a little bond."

Sam opened his eyes and Lucifer noticed his pupils were dilated. Lucifer gave him a little kiss that Sam recognized as his goodbye kiss, which meant he was about to leave. "Wait." Sam said in the exact moment Lucifer disappeared. But then Sam saw him standing close to the table. "Stay." Sam said half asking, half demanding, which surprised Lucifer. Sam stood up from the couch. "Dean and Cas are on a hunt. They won't be back in a couple of days…"

"I shouldn't stay." The longer he stayed with Sam, their bond became stronger just like his feelings for the human. And those feelings were changing him, making him vulnerable and he couldn't let that happen.

Usually Lucifer was very clear in his words, but this time Sam felt a bit of doubt in his sentence. "Does that mean you want to?"

If he told the truth, he would say yes, but he didn't want to admit that, not so literally. He wasn't going to lie to Sam either, so he sent him a smirk. "You wouldn't be too bad making deals…"

Sam smiled, he knew that was a yes.

And so Lucifer stayed. He made Sam company as he ate lunch and also made some comments and complains about his food. The exchange of opinions about Sam's salad made them laugh. An hour later it was time for Aurea to eat and Lucifer held her as she drank the milk. They played a bit with her before she fall asleep and she looked like she was smiling at them. Sam remembered his dream was once to build a family, this wasn't what he had thought about, but it wasn't very different.

At night, when Sam went to sleep, he took Aurea with him to his bed, as usual. What was unusual was that Lucifer joined them; he laid on the bed and their daughter stayed between them. Sam fell asleep with a little smile on his lips and Lucifer just watched them sleep peacefully.

I hope you enjoyed it. I would like to know if you'd like me to write another chapter like this, before I return to action? And would you like more destiel?
