FIRST BIRTH YEAR
servants were busy preparing for a feast. it was the princess her first birthday. and lucifer wanted everything to be perfect for his little apple pie.
it were a few hard months. feeding her every so hours waking up in the middle of the night. hearing her cry and oh the diapers. and yes the king and queen did all of it. lucifer didn't trust his daughter with any of the servants. he only let his personal hellhounds guard her wherever she was. day and night. he had plenty of hell hounds but only a handfull he truly trusted. however he demanded they would be in disguises. so it would be less threatening to charlotte.
"your highness the princess her new dress arrived." one of the servants said.
"finally." he took the package from the imp and went to find lilith who had their daughter with her.
"come one little one burp." she just feeded the little princess who burped giggleing.
"your so cute little charlotte." lilith smiled looking at her daughter as her eyes seeming lit up.
lilith took a look at where her daughter was looking and ofcourse it was her husband who had walked in. charlotte's smile brightened seeing her father. she made little noises out of happiness to her father. lilith knew their daughter adored her father. and she couldn't be more happy about that. "oh my little princess did you miss daddy." he gave her a kiss on her rosy cheek and then kissed his wife. "how is she ?" he asked.
"good she eats well and is growing well. and she is so very good." lilith playfully rubbed her nose against charlotte's nose. who coed happily. "and you my beloved wife ?"
lilith looked at him. "tired but thats to be expected. i got up four times this night."
lucifer looked at her in concern. "you know you can wake me i can tend to her as well lilith i know im a heavy sleeper and there fore sleep trough her cries. but please just kick me awake or something."
"it doesn't really matter luci i would still be awake." she had him there.
"alright lets compromise you tend to her during night time and ill sleep. and during day time you'll sleep and ill tend to her." they both looked at each other.
"luci..that would mean we wouldn't see each other much and have less…contact."
"its only for the first few years i mean it will get better right when she grows older and older besides my sweet lilith we still have a lot of time ahead of us to be together. its a small sacrifice to make for our darling daughter. and i cant risk your health declining because of this. while i get all the sleep and you don't."
"it was our idea that only we could tend to her." lilith sighed.
"would you really let a imp comfort her during a tantrum." now he was the one that got her
charlotte looked from her mother to her father not understanding what was going on at all. but her eyes lowered to a package her father had in his hand. curious as she was she tried reaching for it. almost tumbling out of lilith's hold. who gasped at the sudden movement of her daughter. lucifer with his fast reflexes dropped his package in favor of catching his daughter.
"got ya." he held her in both his hands by her waist. she just laughed and waved her arms as if to say to do it again.
"oh hell i almost dropped her." lucifer could hear the distress in her voice. "hunny."
"oh luci your right we cant go on like this lets celebrate her party today and after it ill take a quick nap and be awake in the night and then tomorrow morging ill sleep."
