That has been a Birthday Gift which I have written for an awesome friend of mine.

And this is also the last story which I will upload on here, because I will be leaving now.
I told ya: When I have finished "The fall of Lucifer" I will be leaving and this story is now officially finished.

And I don't know if I will ever return to this website.

A lot of things have to change here before I come back, especially the people on here have to change.

Bye, Bye guys...


Aren't you too old for that?

"Aren't you a bit too old for that already Gabriel?" was the first thing that left his mouth, the moment his not so little brother had entered his room and had thrown himself onto his bed and thus onto his back.

A big grin and two arms that got wrapped around his neck had been the only response his little brother Gabriel had given him and Lucifer could only roll his eyes at that, before he had returned his attention back to the piece of paper that was lying there on his mattress and on which he was working on since the early morning.

Now it was late afternoon and yes, Lucifer could feel how his eyes got tired.

He put the feather down, which he had used to write words onto the piece of paper and he ran his hands through his face and at the same time he stretched his body. That, of course, earned him a happy sounding giggling from his baby brother, who still clung to his back like a freaking burdock.

Lucifer grinned at that thought and he tried to look over his shoulder and to look at Gabriel.

"What's so funny Gabe?"

"You are funny."

"So? Why?"

"Look at you: You are sooo tired~."

A small smile appeared on Lucifer's face and a soft chuckle left his lips.

"Maybe I am. And I have my reasons for that."

"Yeah, you're working too much and too hard."

"I try my best to help father as good as I can. That's my duty after all."

"Like we all do, but that doesn't mean that you have to work until you're getting so tired that you can't keep your eyes open anymore."

"Oh come on Gabe, now you're exaggerating it."

"I don't exaggerate it, I just say the truth. I mean look at you."

The younger archangel grinned wider as he poked his brother's cheek.

"Sooo tired~."

Lucifer shook his head, shaking the hand off and grumbled.

"I am not that tired Gabe and now get off of me."

"Nope and if you aren't that tired then you can play with me."

The Morningstar raised an eyebrow as these words had reached his ears.

"You want me to play with you? Seriously Gabriel? Aren't you a bit too old for this?"

"You have asked me this question already and no, I am not too old for this. Or are you too old to spend some time with your favorite little brother and play with him?"

That even made Lucifer grin and a soft chuckle left his lips.

"Maybe I am?" he said teasingly and he quickly turned his head away from Gabriel, so that the younger angel couldn't see the mischievous sparkle in his eyes he always got when he was fooling around with him.

"You are not!" he heard his little brother complain and seconds later he could also feel how two fists collided with his shoulder blades as if Gabriel wanted to proof his point.

"You can complain as much as you want, I won't change my mind. Why don't you go to Michael or Raphael and play with them? I still have some work to do which I want to have finished before the sun settles down."

"Michael always says that playing is for fledglings only and Raphael is just boring. Besides I enjoy playing with you the most."

This time a sigh left the older angels lips and he ran his hands through his face again and finally, FINALLY, he put the paper and the feather aside, shook his brother off of his back and turned around to look at him. He raised an eyebrow again when he saw Gabriel, who was now lying there on his back and in his pillow, giggling and looking up at him with those sparkling, golden eyes of his, looking like a small, cute fledgling again.

"What is wrong with you Gabe? Don't tell me you have tried one of Raphael's weird "medications" again?"

"I would never do such a thing."

"Yeah, of course you wouldn't. Like you also wouldn't play pranks on us…"

A grin appeared on Gabriel's face.

"Haven't done this in ages. Thank you for reminding me bro."

Lucifer narrowed his eyes to thin slits at that.

"Don't even think about it. You know how this will end and who will be the winner."

"Oh yes? Do I know that?"

"Yes, you know it, or do I need to refresh your memory a bit?"

The grin almost immediately disappeared from the messenger angel's lips and he quickly shook his head as his big brother gave him such a wide grin that he shivered so hard that even his wings trembled.

"No? But I think this would be such a wonderful idea and since you have come here to play with me anyways…"

"NO!"

Gabriel quickly turned onto his belly and tried to crawl away from his brother, but the other angel was faster than him and before Gabriel knew what was happening, two strong arms wrapped around his chest and a warm body pressed him back into the mattress.

"And gotcha!" Lucifer teased, smirking the whole time, as he could feel his little brother struggling underneath him. He tightened his grip around his chest a bit more and also put a bit more pressure onto his body, but not too much of course. He didn't want to scare or even hurt his brother…and judging by the happy giggling that left the messenger angel's mouth this wasn't the case…

"Why are you laughing? I haven't done anything to you yet!"

"Pleahahase! Pleahahase Luhuhuhucy!"

"Please what?"

"D-dohohohon't dohohoho ihihit pleahahase!"

Lucifer's grin grew tenfold at these words and he put his chin onto his little brother's left shoulder. That earned him a soft shriek and even more happy sounding giggling and some more struggling.

"Calm down Gabriel, I just want to cuddle with you, that's all."

Okay, even he was certain that Gabriel wouldn't buy this lie.

"I thought cute, little fledglings love to cuddle with their big brothers? Or are you suddenly too old for cuddling?"

He whispered the last words into Gabriel's ear, enjoying the soft squealing he got as a response.

It looked like his little brother hadn't changed at all when it came to tickling.

Perfect!

He made himself more comfortable on Gabriel's back, lying on top of him now and he pressed his lips a bit more against his ear, relishing in those sweet sounds that left the younger angel's lips then.

Oh yes, this was indeed sooo much better then working on that paper.

He could still finish that later.

He would take care of his little brother now.

Gabriel wanted to play with him?

Fine, he would do that…

"Don't you want to answer my question Gabriel?" he asked teasingly.

"And why are you still laughing? What's so funny?"

"S-stop teasing me!"

"Teasing you? But Gabe, I am just talking with you, that's all."

"J-just stohohohp ihihihit!"

"Stop? With what? With cuddling with you?"

"That's not cuddling! That's just cruel!"

"Oh come on, now you're hurting my feelings. I remember very well how much you have loved it whenever I have cuddled with you like that. I just want to do you a favor, bringing back all those wonderful memories from your childhood and you telling me that this is cruel? Yep, that definitely hurt."

"Well bad for you and now get off!"

Again Lucifer smirked and Gabriel shivered as he could practically feel that on his skin!

"I also remember something else. Something I have done to you all the time whenever you was getting onto my nerves and believe me Gabriel, you have been getting onto my nerves more than enough as a fledgling, especially after I have taught you a few pranks of mine."

Now it was Gabriel's turn to grin and Lucifer's to growl slightly as the memories hit him like a tidal wave. But the grin was immediately back on his face.

"But like I said: There was something with which I could always teach you a little lesson and I still remember how much you have loved it, even if you never wanted to admit that. Do you know what I mean?"

"No!"

Yep, Gabriel knew that this was the wrong answer and that he would pay badly for this, but in his father's name, why not?

It had been way too long since he had spent some time with his big brother like this and since he had fooled around with him like he had done it all the time back then when he had been a small angel child…

"No, you don't remember? Or no, I don't want that?"

"Maybe a mix of both?"

Lucifer chuckled and even Gabriel's giggling turned into soft laughter then.

"You're a horrible liar and you know that…"

Gabriel blushed slightly and quickly hid his face into Lucifer's pillow and giggled into it.

His giggling increased, turned into soft laughter when he could feel how the other angel moved his arms and suddenly there were fingers that started to tease the skin hidden underneath his white angel robe. The fingers tickled their way up to his armpits and when he could feel them under his arms, Gabriel shrieked into the pillow and quickly pressed his arms tightly against his body, only trapping Lucifer's fingers underneath them.

The tickling was still light, playful, hardly noticeable, but it was enough for Gabriel to almost freak out, because he knew in what this would end, once Lucifer had started to tickle him.

His whole body trembled with the force with which he tried to keep his laughter in, but he failed miserably at that. His wings also trembled and he tried to move them, but Lucifer had put his knees onto them and now pressed them gently onto the mattress to keep them pinned there and this made it all so much worse for the young messenger, because there was nothing he could do to fight the tickling, let alone to fight his brother off of him. He was lying on top of him, pinning him down with his full body weight and at the same time he had pressed his evil fingers under his arms and was tickling him.

To make this all even worse, Lucifer still used this light tickling on him, slowly wiggling his wingers underneath his arms and without putting too much pressure onto his skin to keep him on the edge and it was working damn good!

The Lightbringer smirked when he could feel how his younger brother started squirming underneath him and he could hear how he drummed his feet onto his mattress and how muffled sounding laughter reached his ears.

"L-Luhuhuhucy nohohoho! S-stop thahahat pleahahase! No tickling! No tickling pleahahase!"

"That's no tickling Gabe, that's just teasing."

Gabriel could almost hear the grin in his voice and oddly this made him laugh even louder.

"G-get off of me you ohohohold meani…hahahaha…y-you're heavy!"

"I am heavy you say? I think this is your least problem now Gabe. You should worry about something else, than about my weight. And whom do you call mean here? Me? You're hurting my feelings again."

"C-cry me a rihihihver hahahaha!"

Almost immediately the tickling stopped, but the fingers remained under his arms.

Despite everything Gabriel couldn't stop giggling anymore and this didn't get any better when he could feel soft lips on his ear again.

"What was that?"

Lucifer's voice was deep and threatening and it made Gabriel shiver and at the same time it made him want to laugh like he hadn't laughed for almost an eternity, but he tried to keep his laughter in and he also tried to hid his face from his older brother.

"Nothihihing…" he giggled into the pillow.

"Nothing? I don't think so Gabe. I think that was a bit more than nothing. I think this "Nothing" sounded more like a "Cry me a river", am I right?"

No response came, only giggling and Lucifer pressed his lips even more against the other angel's ear to tease him some more.

"Am I right?" he repeated his question and Gabriel only shook his head, giggling a bit louder as the other angel's breath tickled his ear.

"No? I am not right? Tsk, tsk, tsk. You, from all of us should know best that it isn't a good decision to lie in my presence. You should know best in what this will end. And when we are at it right now: Why don't you cry me a river now?"

Without waiting for a response, Lucifer attacked!

His fingers set back to work under his little brother's arms, but this time his tickling wasn't soft, it was hard, was intended to make him laugh like he hadn't laughed for a long, long time and apparently it was working, because the moment those mean fingers started to scratch deep into his armpits, it was all over for Gabriel. He screamed into the pillow, pressed his arms as tightly against his body as he could, squirmed around like a worm on a hook under his tormentor and kicked his legs out so wildly that Lucifer's bed was a mess within seconds.

But none of this could soften the Lightbringers heart.

Quite the contrary, because he seemed to find his little brother's reactions very amusing, what his loud, amused sounding laughter confirmed.

"And here I was thinking you weren't that ticklish under your arms. Look how wrong I have been with that," he said, laughing and he dug his fingers a bit deeper into the ticklish skin of his "victim", eliciting another loud shriek from him, followed by almost hysterical sounding laughter.

"S-stohohohp! L-Luhuhuhcifer! NAHAHAHA! S-STOP IT!"

"But Gabriel~. How can I stop when you're having sooo much fun? Can you tell me that?"

"W-why are you so meahahahan to mehehehe?"

"Mean? Nah, this isn't mean. This is fun. But this…maybe this is mean…"

Lucifer took one hand away from Gabriel's right armpit, only to use it to brush his golden hair out of the way to expose the back of his neck. With a broad grin on his face he bend his head down and started nibbling on the skin there and Gabriel shrieked and bucked under him and at the same time he used his now free hand to slap playfully at his big brother.

"STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! PLEAHAHAHSE!"

The elder only chuckled against his skin and blew a small raspberry against it that made his baby brother scream once more. Right after that the hand was back under Gabriel's other arm and the tickle attack began anew.

"Why should I stop? I thought you have come here to play with me? I am playing with you now and you want me to stop? Make up your mind Gabe!"

The younger archangel turned his head to the side and Lucifer could see how tears were already shining in his eyes as he looked at him.

"I-I...P-pleahahase…L-Lucy please…I-I dohohon't want to play anymohohohore pleahahase. S-stop!"

"You don't want to play with me anymore? Why? I thought this would be fun for you? I mean: Look at how much you're laughing."

The teasing tone in his voice made Gabriel laugh even harder if this was still in the realm of possibility and he already had to clutch his belly as good as he could.

"Pleahahahse…m-my belly huhuhuhrts! J-just stohohohohop!"

Lucifer smirked when these words reached his ears and the mischief sparkled in his eyes again.

"Ohhh your cute, little belly hurts?"

Gabriel nodded his head and he squeezed his eyes shut and squealed as he could feel how the tickling hands moved slowly from his armpits to his ribs and then further down to his shaking belly.

"Where does it hurt? Here?"

Lucifer's fingers dug softly into the light pudgy part of his belly, wiggling deep into his skin and Gabriel had the feeling that he would crawl out of his own skin at that. His own hands flew down to his brother's hands and he grabbed his wrists and tried to shove them away, but the tickling weakened him and thus he wasn't able to get the other angel to stop tickling him.

"NO! NO LUCY! PLEAHAHASE!"

"No? No that's not where it hurts? Hmm…what about here then?"

The fingers moved to the sides of his belly, teasing the skin through the white robe, before his hands slipped underneath his clothing, searching for the warm skin underneath.

"Oh Sancte Patre! NOHOHOHO!"

Even Lucifer threw his head back in laughter now.

It was always a lot of fun to tickle Gabriel, because he knew which buttons he had to press to get the best reactions out of his baby brother.

And when he was at the topic…

One of his fingers dipped into his belly button and wiggled around and Gabriel went ballistic under him.

"Look Gabe, I have found your happy button~," he cheered, still laughing himself.

He remembered this silly game Michael had always played with him and in which he had tried to find his own "Happy Button" and he also remember how he had always played it with Gabriel, when he had been a small fledgling and how much he had made him laugh with this and it looked like it was still working on him after all these years.

Maybe he should play this silly game with him again at some time?

Would be a great way to refresh his own memories…

But at the moment he just concentrated on this squealing, laughing mess he had created there and said squealing, laughing mess was begging again through his loud laughter.

Oh yes, he knew that he had found Gabriel's weak spot here…

"STOP IT LUCY! PLEAHAHAHSE! NOT THERE! NOHOHOT THEHEHRE PLEAHAHASE! Y-YOU KNOW THAT I CAHAHAN'T STAHAHAND THAT!"

Lucifer's grin became evil.

"Oh yes, that's exactly why I am doing it."

He bend his head down to his ear again.

"Does your belly still hurt little brother?"

Gabriel nodded his head and at the same time he buried his face into the pillow again and laughed into it, since Lucifer's fingers still worked their evil magic on his belly.

He shivered when he could feel the evil grin on his ear.

"How about I kiss your pain away?"

Panic now rose inside Gabriel's body, because he knew what Lucifer was up to and he also knew that he wouldn't stop with that anytime soon, once he had started using that tickle method on him.

"NO! D-DON'T YOU DAHAHARE! D-DO IHIHIHIT AND I WILL M-MAKE YOU PAHAHAHAY!"

"Wow, that sounded sooo threatening Gabe. I am sh-shaking with fear!"

And finally the joyful tears started to flow, because in this very moment Gabriel couldn't stop laughing anymore.

The whole situation was so stupid and so funny at the same time, that he just couldn't stop laughing at it anymore and apparently Lucifer seemed to feel the same about that.

But despite everything, the elder still managed to roll his little brother onto his back, after he had pulled his hands away from him for a moment. When Gabriel lay on his back, he immediately grabbed his wrists and pinned his hands above his hand and held them pinned there with one of his own. He used his free hand to push up the top part of his angel robe to expose his quivering belly.

Gabriel fought against him as much as he could and he even managed to free one of his hands. He used it to shove Lucifer's head away from him, but the Morningstar was faster than him and grabbed his hand and pinned it back above his head. At the same time he straddled his legs, never losing eye contact to his laughing, little brother and the big grin never left his lips.

He waited patiently until Gabriel had opened his eyes and until he had stopped laughing, since he looked like he could need a small break badly.

They looked into each other's eyes now and the longer Lucifer waited, the wider Gabriel's grin became and that alone let the Lightbringer laugh himself again.

He slowly, veeeeery slowly, bend his head down to Gabriel's belly, never leaving his little brother's face out of his eyes when he did that to tease him. He enjoyed every little reaction he got from the other angel, enjoyed the sound of his growing laughter, enjoyed the little crow's feet in the corners of his eyes and he enjoyed the happy sparkling in his golden eyes that told him that Gabriel still had fun, that he still loved to fool around like this and that warmed Lucifer's heart to the core.

Another amused sounding chuckle left his lips when he had pressed his lips against his brother's soft belly, eliciting a squeal from the other angel.

"Well Gabe? Where does it hurt?" he asked, talking right into the warm skin underneath his lips to tease the other angel some more.

Instead of answering his question, Gabriel squeezed his eyes shut and arched his back as more and more laughter poured over his wide grinning lips and he pulled at his trapped hands.

"Hmm fine. Since you don't want to give me a proper answer, I have to find out myself…"

When he started peppering ticklish kisses all over his belly, Gabriel was lost in his laughter once again.

But this time his laughter sounded different.

It didn't sound hysterically anymore, it sounded happy, carefree, sounded like he enjoyed the treatment his big brother was giving him right now and that he had a lot of fun.

He just sounded like the little fledgling he had been a long, long time ago and that made Lucifer's heart almost melt.

The grin never left his lips as he kept peppering all those ticklish, little kisses all over his baby brother's belly, relishing in the laughter he got as a response. He didn't even need to hold him down anymore, since Gabriel didn't even try to free himself anymore. He was just lying there, arching his back, pressing his head deep into the pillow as he let his happy, childlike laughter flow.

"Just look at you Gabe. You aren't even trying to stop me!"

The other angel blushed and tried to hide his face in the crook of his arm as more and more laughter poured over his lips.

Lucifer could only laugh at him and he buried his face back into the soft, warm belly, shaking his head and making exaggerating loud growling noises.

"Look at this cute, little belly Gabe. I wanna eat it~."

When he started nibbling on the skin, Gabriel's happy laughter got more and more interrupted by a super cute shriek and he started to squirm around underneath him.

When he tried to roll onto his side, Lucifer buried his face into the skin there and nibbled on his side, right underneath his rib cage. Almost immediately his little brother turned back onto his back, kicked his legs out, arched his back once again and laughed and shrieked in ticklish joy.

"Luhuhuhcy stohohop it pleahahase…hahaha…n-no more pleahahahse! I-I give up…hahaha…please, I give up!"

The elder chuckled again and he rubbed his nose playfully over the soft skin of his belly now.

"You give up? Reeeeeeally~?" he asked teasingly.

"Yehehehes reahahahally!"

Lucifer pulled away from him for a short time, looking into his brother's face and he smirked at him when Gabriel opened his eyes and looked up at him, still with that huge grin on his own lips.

"How about that: You try not to laugh and if you make it I will stop tickling you."

"A-and if I won't make it?"

"Then I am going to push your cute, little happy button once again and see how much laughter it can produce."

Gabriel shivered from the mere thought of it, but then he narrowed his eyes at him, trying to look serious, but the Elder could see how his lips were quivering already and that he had to bite his tongue to keep his laughter in.

The younger angel could feel how Lucifer tightened his grip around his wrists and how he bend his head down to his belly again. When soft lips met his skin again he squeezed his eyes shut, gritting his teeth when the ticklish kissing started anew and he tried with all his might to keep his laughter in. He squirmed back and forth under this treatment, swallowed his laughter and arched his back whenever Lucifer hit an extra ticklish spot.

He could make it, knew that he could get through this without laughing, when he would concentrate on something else, or when he…

"AHHH! NOHOHOHO! LUCIFER! NAHAHAHAHA!"

When the Lightbringer blew a huge raspberry right into his belly button, the laughter broke out of Gabriel like lava from a volcano.

Even Lucifer had to stop his tickle attack for a moment, because he was laughing too much himself.

"Man that was easy Gabe!" he laughed and before Gabriel could answer him, his lips were right back on his belly and he started to blow his evil raspberries all over his belly.

The messenger angel was squirming around wildly now and he even managed to free his hands and he immediately braced them against Lucifer's head and he tried to push him away, while at the same time laughing his angel heart out.

"Y-YOU CHEAHAHAHATER! STAHAHAHAP! TH-THAHAHAT'S NOHOHOT FAHAHAHAIR!"

"Hey, that's not cheating Gabe! It's not my fault that you're so ticklish!"

And another raspberry was blown against his belly and another and another and after that Gabriel stopped counting…

He didn't know for how long Lucifer had kept on tickling him like that and he didn't care for it if he was honest. He was just glad when his brother FINALLY stopped with this mean, but still fun tickle attack.

Well he had stopped…when he had started begging for mercy and when Gabriel had told him that he was the best big brother he ever had.

When he had stopped, silence had returned to the small room that got only interrupted by Gabriel's steady giggling, since he could still feel the aftershock tickles that rushed through his nervous system.

Lucifer was sitting next to him and Gabriel was certain that the big grin wouldn't leave his lips anytime soon and if he was honest he felt the same about that.

It had been way too long since the last time he had laughed this much and since he had had so much fun.

They all could use some fun times like this every now and then; even the strongest among them.

And it was good to see that Lucifer still loved to fool around with him like this, that he wasn't the strict and cold warrior he should be. There still was a soft core hidden underneath this strong armor of his.

When Gabriel got his strength back, he wiped some joyful tears out of his eyes, before he slowly sat up and pulled his robe down to cover his belly.

He narrowed his eyes when Lucifer chuckled at him.

"What?!"

"Look at your hair Gabe. You look like you got hit by a lightning strike."

And Lucifer was right, because Gabriel's long, curly hair stood to all sides, due to his wild head shaking and he quickly tried to smooth it with his hands.

"Ha, ha, ha very funny," he grumbled, before he glared at his older brother.

"Why are you looking at me like that Gabe?"

"I will get you back for this you old meani!"

The grin was right back on the Lightbringer's lips and his eyes began to sparkle.

"Is that a challenge?"

"More a promise than a challenge!"

"Oh yeah? Well I am looking forward to it Gabriel."

"Oh you can!"

"Yes I do. I am looking forward to make you laugh until you cry again, because this will happen if you try to tickle me!"

"I will ask Michael for help."

"Oh please, as if this old spoilsport would agree to such silly games."

"I am sure he will."

"Of course Gabe, of course. Keep on dreaming."

To underline his words, Lucifer tweaked his cheek playfully before he got up.

He stretched his body and his wings, before looking back down at his little brother.

"What?" he asked when he saw the confused look in his golden eyes.

"Where are you going?"

"I have to go to father. I told you I still have some work to do. But don't worry Gabe. I will be back soon. And if you're still here then, be sure that we two will have some more fun. Next time I will get your cute, little feet too, because I still remember how ticklish they are…"

A shiver went through the younger angel's body and he was on his feet faster than Lucifer could look and he quickly left the room, leaving an amused laughing Lucifer back who could only shake his head.

Younger siblings…They were indeed a true gift of God…

The end
