Hello, Deckerstars! Are you excited that season 2 is finally upon us? I for one cannot wait to watch it tonight and review the season for TVOvermind! Here's chapter 20 and I'll try to update as soon as I'm able. Remember, reviews are good; flames can rot in Hell!
P.S.
Apologies for the overdue update. I've come down with a cold combined with a headache. I should be okay in a few days. I hope.
Chloe looked at the man standing in front of her with pity in her eyes as she listened to his words. She then took a deep breath and said, "I would've remembered if we worked together. As for the whole we are in love with each other part, I'm not buying it. I've never been on a date with you, so I think falling in love with you is out of the question." For once in his long life, Lucifer Morningstar is speechless. Not only does Chloe Decker not remember him, but she also doesn't remember the love that they shared. "Besides, I'm trying to work things out with my ex-husband, so unless you're here to visit Trixie, I suggest that you leave before he gets here and jumps to conclusions," Chloe said as she walked past Lucifer and opened the door.
Speechless and heartbroken, Lucifer forced himself to walk toward the door. So this is what heartbreak feels like. The King of Hell thought miserably as he trudged toward the door. As soon as he stepped outside, the detective shut the door behind him. Lucifer wiped away a tear that threatened to fall and walked back to his car. He got into the driver's seat and drove slowly back to LUX as dark clouds loomed above the City of Angels.
Lucifer returned to LUX a few hours before sunset. He didn't bother mingling with his patrons as he headed straight for the elevator. The Lord of Hell didn't even spare the Brittanys a second glance as they threw him sultry looks. Lucifer entered the elevator and went up to his penthouse; his entire world has turned upside down as Detective Decker's words echoed in his mind. I can't believe that Chloe doesn't remember me. Lucifer thought sadly as he walked mindlessly toward his bedroom. The Devil sat on the king-sized bed and finally let his guard down. "Why, Father? Why doesn't my Chloe remember me? Is this your way of not meddling because it sure as hell looks like it is!" Lucifer raged at the ceiling. The former Prince of Darkness half-wanted to throw something at the nearest wall or punish someone for their sins to get the detective out of his mind, but he remained still as silent tears rolled down his handsome face.
Mazikeen returned to Earth after a long week of guarding the Gates of Hell. She walked into the penthouse and heard soft crying sounds coming from Lucifer's room. The demoness quietly walked in and saw the Devil himself sobbing quietly. "Lucifer, why are you crying?" Maze asked, placing a comforting hand on her Master's shoulder. The King of Hell looked up with red, puffy eyes and wiped away his tears with the back of his hand. "Maze, you're back," Lucifer said, not believing that his protector is sitting right in front of him. "Yes, Lucifer. I'm back. The Gates of Hell is safe for now, and Amenadiel is helping, but I will have to go back in a few day's time." The demoness explained. "Why were you crying? Didn't you go see your Detective Decker?" Maze asked again.
"I did go see her," Lucifer said in a small voice. "she doesn't remember me." The Lord of Hell finished as fresh tears rolled down his cheeks. "She doesn't remember you? How?" Maze asked, perplexed. "I wish I knew," Lucifer mumbled as he curled into a fetal position on the bed. The demoness then got up from the bed and speed-walked toward the door. "Maze, where are you going?" Lucifer called. "I'm going to give that detective a piece of my mind," Maze said. "No, I don't want you to hurt her," Lucifer said as he sat up, stopping the demoness from going any further.
"Why not? She hurt you by not remembering you!" Maze exclaimed. "Someone must have wiped away her memories of me," Lucifer said. "The question is, who would do such a thing?" Maze looked thoughtful for a moment as she tried to figure out who was responsible. Just then, a bright ball of light appeared, and God materialized in front of Lucifer and Maze. "Father! I don't understand, why are you here?" Lucifer asked, his eyes wide with shock. "I have a confession to make, Lucifer, which is ironic coming from me, I know. Please don't be angry when I tell you," God said. "I promise, Father, what did you want to say to me?" Lucifer asked.
God then took a breath and said, "I'm the one that wiped away Chloe's memories of you." The Lord of Heaven confessed. It took all of Lucifer's willpower not to blow his top when he heard his Father's confession. How dare he do this to me?! To my Chloe?! Lucifer seethed in his mind. "Why?" Was all Lucifer could say to keep his anger in check. His eyes, however, are flickering between red and dark brown. "I had to do something," God said. "I didn't want you to fall in love with a human." The Ruler of Heaven said, bowing his head. "I was doing this to protect you, my Son. You have to believe me." God pleaded.
"You know I was this close to forgiving you after you helped me get back to Earth," Lucifer began. "Though now I'm not so sure you deserve that forgiveness after what you have done to my Chloe." The Lord of Hell finished. "What can I do to fix this?" God asked. "You can give Chloe her memories back, for starters," Lucifer said with a glare. "I wish it were that easy, Lucifer, and I would do it if I could," God said. "but I don't have the ability to restore memories." The Lord of Heaven said. Lucifer was livid. First, his Father wiped away Chloe's memories of him, and now he can't restore them? "I can, however, go into her dreams and make her remember on her own," God said, sensing his Son's anger. "You do that, Dad," Lucifer said after calming down. "If you don't restore her memories, I will never forgive you." The King of Hell promised. God nodded before turning into a ball of light again and disappeared.
"Think he will honor his word?" Maze asked. "He better," Lucifer said. "He bloody well better."
God's going to restore Chloe's memories. Think it will work? Of course, it will! It's my story after all! The next chapter will be the dream and the next chapter will be the big reunion between Chloe and Lucifer. Thanks for reading/favoriting/following!
