"…The shooter, electrical engineer Joe Fields, is in police custody, while Officer John Decker, father of Hot Tub High School's Chloe Decker, is in critical condition…"
Lucifer and Chloe stared at the TV screen.
"I have to go to him."
The Devil nodded. "He caught the bad guy. My favour is done."
It wasn't surprising. The night had been magical; their dance…their almost kiss…
But the other shoe always dropped eventually. It always happened to him.
Chloe's hand cupped his cheek. "I'll come back and visit. I promise."
Only when Chloe was long gone, did Lucifer allow himself to cry.
