The morning sun rises as Lucifer is already dressed in his gray suit and dark blue buttoned shirt. The three waking cats meow as Lucifer starts to leave. He stops for a second to look back then smiles as he leaves them nothing to eat or drink for the day. The cats could always handle surviving without it.
He goes down from the elevator to the nightclub to do some serenading. He grabs his lighter and a cigarette from his inside coat pocket. He lights the cigarette up as he sits down at the black grand piano.
Lucifer starts to play with one hand as he uses the other to hold his other for the cigarette. Then Maze shows within ten minutes of Lucifer's serenading. Lucifer keeps the piano going with now the blues when he sees Maze coming toward him.
"What brings you here again, Maze?" Lucifer asks as he keeps playing while smoking.
Maze smoothes her body over the edge of the piano as she answers with a malicious tone, "None of your business, Lucifer." Then she says something sweeter as she draws back, "Just wanted to see how Chloe's torture on you was going."
Lucifer stops playing as he blows out cigarette smoke. He smiles as he sarcastically retorts, "It's going well, Mazikeen. And just to state from what I didn't tell you last night. The cats are not a torment devised by the Detective." Then he hesitantly says, "They're more of a responsibility..."
Maze laughs while crossing her arms as she says, "Responsibility...! Damn, Lucifer! Chloe really thinks you can handle taking care of living cats when you actually handled with dead souls in Hell for eons! Next thing she'll know is that three cats will either go missing or die right up in that penthouse plate."
She continues to laugh as Lucifer gets up to state, "You maybe right, Mazikeen... maybe I can still prove her wrong that I don't need to change!"
"Tha-" Maze was about to say something. Lucifer rushes out before she could form a full word.
Lucifer heads to his black Corvette in the Lux parking garage and heads off to Chloe's house.
Chloe calls to Trixie as she makes the breakfast, "Trixie, I need you to feed the cats before I take you to school! So better hurry!"
The calico cat looks curiously out of Trixie's door as she waits to sink in the delicious smells of omelet. The gray tiger cat lounges by the desk in the hallway. He slants his dark brown eyes as the calico comes forward more towards where Chloe was cooking.
"Not in your life." Chloe jokes with the calico.
Loads of knocks bang on her door as she was just about to flip the omelet. Chloe jumps a little and opens her mouth in shocking surprise. The omelet is not saved as it falls to the floor. Chloe grumbles to herself as she goes to the door that almost going to be broken from the loud poundings. She opens her door. To her dismay, it's her partner.
"Detective!" Lucifer cheers then he steps in uninvited, "Now!"
He claps his hands together as he looks over the room. He sees the calico and gray tiger cat being so lazy. Lucifer sighs as he is in disgust with the cats. Chloe takes her sweeper to clean up the breakfast she was going to make for her and Trixie. Trixie comes out of her room after her chore was done. Then she screams in joy, "Lucifer!"
Lucifer is welcomed by the 9 year old girl's hug. The Devil releases Trixie's arms as he uncomfortable greets her, "Good morning, little urchin."
Chloe says to Trixie, "Mommy's sorry, monkey! I was making good omelets for us but messed it up because of Lucifer."
"That's okay! There's always cereal!" Trixie says with a happy smile. Then she says with an afterthought, "Maybe Lucifer can join us for breakfast!"
Lucifer was about to protest, yet Chloe interrupts, "How sweet, monkey! But Lucifer and I have to go to work. Besides he never eats the most important meal of the day. Yet you!" She points clownishly to Trixie's nose as she says, "Need to get ready for school!"
Trixie laughs as she eats her cereal. Lucifer is astounded and remarks, "Well, Detective! If you might know I do!"
"And what is that?" Chloe asks with her right eye more open than her left.
"A good glass of whiskey and a cigare-" Lucifer stops and chuckles, "Well I see what you are meaning!"
Chloe grabs her keys as she gets to the door until she turns around to call out, "Be sure to get to the bus!"
Trixie's head and shoulders shot out from her door as she says, "Okay! But Lucifer can pick me up after school!"
Chloe rolls her eyes as she glares at Lucifer. She sighs, "Fine, but promise me that Lucifer won't give you driving lessons."
Lucifer smirks as Chloe finally goes out. He says to Chloe, "Mind if I give you a ride to the precinct, Detective?"
Chloe simply answers while getting to her car, "No."
