Sitting on her bed, Syd noticed voices coming from outside her bedroom. They were too far away for Syd to hear the actual words, but she assumed that they were still searching for the missing captive. Her phone sat silent on the bed as she looked at it expectantly.

"Hey," Sean said quietly, but it startled Syd a little.

"Yes?" Syd asked and looked to where he was sitting on the floor with her cat. She had offered him a seat on the bed, but he had gone completely silent. Syd had assumed that he was in pain and just didn't feel like moving.

"Why didn't you run earlier?" Sean asked as he turned to look at her. "Did you just feel bad for me?" Sean's voice was quiet, but his eyes bore into hers.

"No! I think the answer's pretty obvious," Syd replied, and she could feel her face getting hot.

"What?" Sean sat up straighter, and Syd couldn't help feeling like he was teasing her.

"Idiot," Syd mumbled as she turned her face away. "Friends don't just leave friends behind. If I thought that you could escape, I would have, but I wasn't just going to leave you there."

Sean quietly stood up, and Syd could hear his footsteps as he walked towards her.

"I thought you said that's why you wouldn't go to Avalon with me. Because you'd rather stay with your friends?"

Syd crossed her arms defensively and explained, "I never said that you weren't one of them. It's not like you're leaving right away. Don't you have a spear to find?"

Sean sat down on the bed in front of her, and Syd looked at his face. He was probably just teasing her, but he was smiling with such a joyous look on his face.

"What?" Syd asked defensively.

"Nothing. Just happy that you like me," Sean said teasingly.

"I wouldn't go that far, especially not when you're messing with my head!" Syd snapped at him out of embarrassment.

"I'm not. I'm just… relieved," Sean explained and turned away with a slight blush on his face. "I just didn't think that you thought of me as a friend, and that's why you didn't want to go with me."

"No! It's… well, to be honest, I don't really like the idea of going there in the first place. I'm sorry. I know it's your home, but from what I've heard it doesn't sound very… human-friendly."

"Well, that's true," Sean admitted wearily. "But you're a witch, so it'll be a little different for you. Awesome throw by the way."

"Yeah, I still have no idea how I did that," Syd replied looking at her hands skeptically. She still couldn't quite believe that she'd thrown a full grown man with her mind, but in that moment she had felt the power and instinctively known what to do.

"It must be because of how much you like me. You couldn't stand the idea of losing such an amazing person."

"Haha, very funny," Syd responded and noticed that he had been watching her reaction. A thought occurred to her suddenly, and her face must have given it away.

"What?" Sean asked her hesitantly.

"Well, I only told Cas this, but last night Lucifer told me that… he likes me," Syd finished uncomfortably.

"And?" Sean asked, and his smile faltered.

"And maybe he didn't mean it in the way I thought he did, but he might not even know that."

"How so?"

"Maybe he only likes me as a friend, or he thinks that I'm interesting. I doubt that Lucifer has any real friends."

"What does he normally do in your dreams?" Sean asked with razor sharp focus.

"Well, I don't actually remember a lot of them. Just the more recent ones. He's really kind of… grabby."

"Does he just grab you or has he done more?"

Syd could tell her face was probably as red as an apple, but she replied, "More. He kissed me last time but only on the cheek. I think it's more to mess with my head than anything."

"Then I can definitely say that he doesn't think of you as a friend. Syd, the deal he made with that ranger… I think it's safe to say that's he's not after the power anymore. You need to be more careful."

"I think he's just mixed up. He thinks he likes me that way because he's never really had a friend. And he's just being super possessive and petty because he doesn't know how to deal with it," Syd reasoned.

Sean grabbed her shoulders and looked into her eyes. His serious expression kept her quiet, and his eyes pleaded with her.

"Don't do that. Don't make excuses for him. The reason he doesn't have any friends is because he treats others like possessions, toys, or trash. Don't feel sorry for him. It'll only encourage him."

Syd nodded. Lucifer had just tried to make a deal with Syd and promptly stabbed her in the back when things didn't immediately go his way. After telling Sean that he was her friend and comparing his motivations to Lucifer's, it was no wonder Sean was angry. But Syd still thought that it would explain some of Lucifer's behavior. Suddenly her phone rang, and Sean jumped back in surprise. It was Sam, so the bunker probably wasn't under lockdown anymore.

"Yeah?" Syd answered.

"You guys can come out now, but I've got some bad news. Daniel escaped, and he took something with him."

"Crap. What did he take? One of the weapons from the library?"

"The mirror, Syd," Sam said with a tired sigh.

Syd looked to Sean in shock. His face had gone pale, so he must have heard Sam too. At least it's broken, Syd thought hopefully.
