September 3rd
Callie had gotten used to working and living with the literal devil. Every day was pretty much the same. Wake up. Avoid possibly running into him and one of his many sexual escapades. Which was easier said than done. Though Lucifer always seemed slightly uncomfortable around Callie. Especially when he brought a partner over to his loft. If Callie was in the elevator with him. He would freeze up, stumble over his words. Acting like a teenage boy trying to muster up the courage to talk to his crush.
Callie wouLd then carry on with her day. Setting up her music for the night, as well as making sure everything was working correctly.
At the start, she would trip over the wires nightly. Well, she still did that, almost tipping over the entire DJ set just the night before. She tried her best to keep the cords hidden. Along with everything else setup. However, her attempts were always in vain. Something always seemed to go wrong. No matter how much she prepared. She had half expected Lucifer to have fired her by now. Though, to her surprise, he hadn't. Not yet at least. Though then again he barely spoke to her. Saying the occasionally awkward line here or there to her if they were caught in a weird situation. Along with telling her any song requests for the night, or when to take a break so he could play.
The first time she had heard him play the piano she had been taken completely off guard. hearing his playing seep through the walls as she rode the elevator up one night. She had stopped and held the door open on her floor for several minutes. Just listening to him play. She didn't have the courage or the balls to go up and listen to him in person. So she just stood there listening until the elevator doors almost slammed right into her arms and she jumped out of the cart avoid getting crushed.
Now she had gotten accustomed to it. He played pretty much every night. Sometimes signing. Sometimes not. She would always sit off in a both far away from where he played pretending to not listen. Pretending not to care. Though she always held onto every word.
After he would play, she would get back to her set. Play into the early hours till the club closed. Then take another ride in silence back up to her floor. Maze and Lucifer always in the car with her. Neither of them hardly ever said a word. Then she would get up and do it all over again.
Lucifer was strolling into the elevator going down, a short blonde clung to his arm. As they got in and headed down to the ground floor. However, the elevator had another plan. It stopped suddenly on Callie's floor. The devil immediately tensed.
She had resisted him. His powers of seduction did absolutely nothing. A person able to resist humans most natural and barbaric of desires was a being to be nervous around. A feeling the devil rarely had.
The doors opened and Callie walked in, smiling at Lucifer and the one-night stand that clung to his arm.
"Morning," Callie said as a wave of nerves hit her. This was always what she wanted to avoid. Lucifer and one of his many sexual encounters.
"Morning." He said as he shifted his stance a little. Causing the one night stands grip to tighten on his arm.
"Why, who's this Luci? You didn't tell me you had a friend staying with you?" The one night stand let out of his arm and smiled at her.
"Hello, Luv. Names John." The blonde who wore a white button shirt and loose red tie around his neck said.
"Callie." She said smiling at him as the elevator opened up at LUX. She gestured for them to go first and John smiled at her.
"We should have invited her last night Lucifer, could have been one hell of a three-way."
Callie laughed at the man's statement.
"John, I don't think…"
Callie put up her hand cutting Lucifer off. "I don't think I would have joined."
"Three ways not your thing Luv?" John asked raising an eyebrow.
"No, sex just isn't."
Lucifer nearly choked on air. "Bloody hell of course!" He shouted out loud. Causing both Callie and John to turn and shoot him a look.
"On, that note. I'm off. Gotta get back to Chas. See you around you sly bastard." John said as he turned and headed out of the night club.
Callie turned and headed black to the DJ booth. Leaving the devil to stand there for a few minutes. Realizing that maybe she wasn't actually a danger to him. Well, maybe not completely.

September 14th
Lucifer had slowly been communicating with Callie again. A few more words here and there. Not really getting into her business. After all, it was just human nonsense. Things that the devil didn't truly find interesting. Unless it was mischief or sin. Which he had surprisingly caught Callie doing every now and then. If a customer was being overly handy or rude to any of the servers. The second that they stepped away from the table. Leaving their belongings behind. Callie would come out of nowhere. Taking cash out of their wallets, and secretly slipping it into the bar's tip jar.
He would always hold back a laugh every time he saw her do it. He should intervene. Tell her it's wrong, but who is he to stop these humans from sinning? So sin away, he always thought to himself.
He was heading up to his penthouse after the club had closed. Two girls clung to each side of him as they headed up. Callie had gone up before him. Some kind of "cell phone" something the devil didn't possess himself, clutched to the side of her face. A bit of worry seemed to be placard onto her face as she had headed up.
Lucifer just ignored it knowing it wasn't his problem. Until they passed through the floor. He could hear faint noises. They sounded like crying.
"Just ignore it. It's not your problem."
The elevator passed through to his and dinged at once it arrived at the penthouse. He strolled inside to see Maze on the couch playing with her knives. Her head perked up as soon as she heard the elevator sound.
"Ah, Lucifer. Exactly what I needed after a long night." The demon pushed herself off the couch and approached Lucifer and the two women.
"Yes, of course, Maze." He said as he started to lead them to the bedroom. Though as he did he stopped. Maze shot him a look.
"Is everything ok?"
"Uh, yes of course. Just um, forgot to check on something downstairs." He said backing away from them. "Get started without me."
The demon just shrugged. Taking the women and leading them to her boss's bedroom.
Lucifer hit the elevator button and tapped his foot impatiently.
Why was he doing this?
She was just a human. Nothing important.
Nothing special. So why could he never get her out of his bloody head?
He groaned a little as the elevator came up and he slid in. He pressed the button and went down two floors.
He could hear a faint voice as the doors opened.
"No, no you can't!" He heard Callie cry out. He clenched his fists as he headed down to her room.
Was someone in there with her?
He hadn't seen anyone come up there with her. He knew for certain she wouldn't just let a man into her room that's for certain.
"No, stop!" He heard Callie cry out again. His eyes glowed red for a moment. As he rushed over and kicked the door to her room down.
Callie let out a yelp as the door flung open. Lucifer, eyes flashing red for a brief second as he scanned the room.
"Lucifer! What the hell!"
"Nows, not the time to bring up bring up my old job. Now, where's the other person." He said dark eyes scanning the room. Looking for anyone else who may be in the room with her. However, his search seemed to come up short.
"What are you talking about."
"I heard you talking to someone. Clearly in distress, so I came here to make sure you were safe."
Callie pinched the bridge of her nose, as she picked up her phone. "Yeah, Jess. I'm fine. Just give me a mom-" the devil quickly snatched the phone out of her hand. Cutting her off completely.
"You listen here if you harm her. In any way. Physically or mentally. I assure you I will have a special place in hell for you. We're I will turn your bones into nothing but liquid every second, of the bloody day! Reminding you of the agony you put this woman through. I will Never let you forget your sins, you bloody wanker!" He roars into the phone just as Callie snatched it back from the devil. Kicking him in the shin as she did.
Catching the devil off guard he stumbled back a bit.
"Jess, I'm so sorry," Callie said into the phone. "Yes, yes. That was him. Yes, he does do a good job at holding up his "devil" act." She shot Lucifer another look. "Alright, I'll talk to you later." She said hanging up.
"Are you crazy!" Callie said glaring at Lucifer.
"I heard you. You were clearly in distress."
Callie groaned again. "I wasn't in distress. At all."
Lucifer ran a hand through his hair a little. "Well, it sure as my old job sounded like you were. So you're welcome, for saving you from a boring conversation."
Callie sprung to her feet and pushed him towards the door. "Out now."
Lucifer leaned back shifting his weight, causing him to fall backward. Causing Callie. To stumble backward in the process. Both of them collapsed to the floor in an entanglement of limbs.
"Seriously!" Callie said as she pushed his tall slender body off of hers. "Lucifer what was that!"
He pulled himself into a sitting position. As he brushed some dust off his Armani suit jacket. "I was trying to get you to stop."
"You could have just said that!" Callie said with a groan. She pulled herself off the floor and moved back to sit on the bed again. Lucifer stood up and sat in a chair.
"So, who was that?"
Callie shot him a look. "Really? That's all you have to say after all that." She laid back down on the bed. "Alright, fine. That was Jess a friend from back home."
"Back home, you don't talk about that much."
"Nether do you."
"Deflecting questions, are we?"
Callie smiled a tiny bit. "Yes, we're both good at that."

September 18th
Callie had been wandering around when she found the pool one day. The devil had been secretly following her when she did.
On occasion, he would just watch her. Not knowing how to talk to her. Every time they tried to talk to each other. Things went wrong. He was just so...awkward. Something the devil never thought he could be. However around her. He was completely the opposite. He heard her cry from down the hall and took off towards her.
Callie let out a squeal of delight when she stumbled onto the pool. She hadn't wandered LUX much. Always sticking to her room, the main club floor and on rare occasion Lucifer's penthouse. She stuck her hand into the warm water and smiled happily as she did.
Lucifer rushed in to see her bent over. "Callie!"
She quickly turned and looked at him.
"Oh, hey Lucifer."
"I heard you scream?"
She made a face at him. "What's up with you and bursting into situations recently."
Lucifer hadn't really put two and two together until now. She was right, he had come running to her. He guessed it was some part of the fear inside him. One he didn't even understand. He decided just to dodge the question altogether.
"Why did you get all excited about a pool? It's just water, but with more seamen in it."
Callie immediately pulled her hand out of the water. "You didn't."
He stepped closer towards her. "Several times. On those steps." He said pointing towards the shallow end of the water.
"That's disgusting. No longer excited about this." She said getting up and looking up at him. His gaze on the steps in front of them. Most likely reminiscing on past sexual encounters. Callie got a devious idea. She quickly pulled on his suit collar and thrust him into the pool.
Her own kind of revenge for his many recent interruptions and awkward encounters.
Though that quickly came to bite her in the ass.
Lucifer was taken by surprise as his body hit the warm water. He tried to touch the bottom. To stand but the depth was far deeper than he had thought. Scrambling he tried to pull himself back to the surface. Only to splash madly in the process.
Callie's eyes went wide as she dove in after him. Wrapping her arms around his waist and quickly pulling him over to the side. She pulled him up and out of the pool, as he coughed up water.
"You're the lord of the underworld and your don't know how to swim?"
"Well excuse me that there aren't any pools in the underworld."
This got a laugh from Callie as she laid back down on the pool floor. "You know, I could always teach you. If you're interested."
The devil smiled at her sweetly. "That sounds...rather lovely actually."
Uriel smiled at his sister. His arms folded, as he watched his brother in heaven. "My plan is working perfectly Azrael. As I predicted. All thanks to you." He said patting his younger sister's shoulder as he did.
She looked at him, anger and curiosity hidden behind her eyes as she did. "I hope you know what you're doing Uriel. Lucifer isn't to be trifled with."
Uriel laughed a little at that. "Ah, dear sister. Neither are we." Uriel walked out of the room, off to deal with his other angelic duties.
Azrael sighed again, as she watched Lucifer splash the women that sat beside him. "you better keep her even closer, brother. I don't think you'll be ready for what's to come."
AN: I noticed in a few episodes that there was clealry a pool ether in or outside of LUX. Which I need a wet lucifer...dont judge me.
