Lucifer C:

What time was it? Where the hell was I? Wait a second... was I sleeping?! Well that`s not normal. But I guess I shouldn`t complain considering I was dead not so long ago. What happened anyways? Everything just feels so blurry, how do humans handle waking up?

"Lucifer...?"

The voice was familiar, and I easily knew it was Ella, sitting beside me and staring down with those puppy dog eyes. Was she just sitting there all night? Did she sleep too? Probably not, she looked tired.

"Morning?" I asked.

"Afternoon." she smiled "You`ve been asleep for most the day."

"Never thought I`d hear that..." I muttered as she helped me sit up. Since when do I, the all powerful devil, need help sitting up?

"Watch the back." I grumbled.

"I think your age is finally starting to show." she smirked a little.

"What age? I`m only a few billion years, still got my whole life ahead of me." I replied as she allowed me to lean on her shoulder for support. Gosh, I felt so weak; it was embarrassing.

"What happened exactly?" I finally asked.

"Well..." she looked nervous "I owed Crowley a-"

"I know that part." I cut in "I mean after that... after I zapped us here?" I glanced around to see we were in Nicks bedroom.

"Well I brought you here." she gestured at the bed "Then I just let the amulet do its thing. Good thing you haven`t buried it yet."

"Yeah..." my voice trailed off a little.

"Is something wrong?" her eyes were puppy-like again.

"It`s just that.." I took a deep breath "I kind of... well you see... death was sort of peaceful. It was kind of nice not to worry about anything anymore, to be gone."

"Lucifer if you dare get suicidal on me." she seemed legitimately scared.

"No worries." I chuckled lightly "I wouldn`t be able to bare being dead, it`d get boring after a bit."

"Kind of relieved to hear that." she muttered then suddenly pulled me into a tight hug "Just don`t die again, without you I`m pretty sure I`d be the one dying of boredom."

"Well we can`t have that." I muttered and her grip tightened "Ah.. watch the spine!"

"Eh, sorry?" she laughed a little, letting go "Is there anything you need?"

"Yeah, Crowley tried to have me killed... again. I need to return the favour."

"Oh no you don`t." she pressed a firm hand against my chest, somehow managing to push me back against the bed. I couldn`t even fight back, my body felt so weak and sore. I guess dying can do that to you.

"Let. Me. Go." I argued.

"So you can go get yourself destroyed?" she scoffed "No thank you, you need to heal, so just relax."

"But..." I groaned "Healing is boring."

"Wait here." she said quickly, leaping off the bed and walking into the other room. I considered leaving, I really needed to deal with Crowley, but she was right wasn`t she? In this state I wouldn`t be able to harm a fly.

"Okay, here we are." she brought the stereo from the living room into the bedroom, plugging it in and taking a seat back on the bed. She began to go through a series of discs, finally picking one and putting it into the machine.

"Nick has nice taste." she commented as it began to play "It`s called Crystals by Monsters and Men."

"I don`t see how this is entertaining?" I muttered.

"Shut up and listen to the music." she grumbled "It`s supposed to be relaxing, and no offense but you don`t really have anything fun lying around."

I raised an eyebrow but laid back and listened, I suppose it wasn`t bad and in a sense it was relaxing.

"The beginning sounds like their describing heaven." I commented "And my fall."

"It`s supposed to be about redemption and happiness." she muttered "Stop making it seem so dark."

"But-"

"No buts." she interrupted "While you`re healing, I`m in charge, so shut up and listen to the music."

"You know once I`m back on my feet..." I trailed off leaving the rest to her imagination.

"We should decorate." she finished for me.

"That`s not what I was going to say." I muttered.

"I know." she smirked "But we really should decorate, this house could use some colour. And some bean bags."

"Right, right, of course." I grumbled, glancing over at her. She really did look tired.

"Were you up all night?" I asked.

"Maybe..." she shrugged "I just needed to be sure you`d pull through..."

"You`re so stupid." I sighed "You really shouldn`t care that much, I am the devil for a reason after all."

"Pfft as if I care that much." she rolled her eyes "It`s just that it was me who stabbed you after all... I felt guilty. I had to look after you, I owed you that much."

"Right, of course that`s the only reason." I was smirking now "It totally has nothing to do with your little confession. How`d you put it?" I mimicked her voice "'I`m pretty sure I`ve always known but could never admit it. I know what I want. I want-'"

"Shut up." she groaned and I chuckled "Gosh, you`re such a jerk sometimes."

"Sometimes?" I replied, stretching my arm out for her "You really should sleep though."

She hesitated for a second, then curled up against my chest, allowing me to drape my arm over her. The pressure of her hands against my stomach hurt a little, but I didn`t complain; she looked comfortable, and I didn`t want to ruin that. Besides, I owed her this much.

Quinn

I was freaking out.

Actually scratch that, freaking out doesn`t even begin to explain how I was feeling. It had been hours and I was getting extremely worried so I went to check on Ella. And what did I find? She was gone, and not only that, but so was Lucifer. There was no way she could just disappear with him... unless he zapped her out. But he was dead, so that wasn`t possible? Plus all the demon weakening sigils had been scratched out, that couldn`t be a good sign.

Dean was currently driving around the nearby town looking for them, while Sam tried to see if he could track her phone. Which he found out was pointless considering she left it here. I had already contacted Castiel, and he was doing his best to find her, but so far he found nothing. It was getting more hopeless by the second, and the guilt was eating me alive. It was my fault, wasn`t it?

What the hell is wrong with me? Killing Lucifer is one thing, but getting my best friend to do it was definitely uncalled for. But everyone said it was necessary...? And by everyone I mean me. If the roles were reverse, I knew Ella would never put me through something like that. If I did find her, what was I supposed to say? Why`d you run away? Or I`m sorry?

Right now all I wanted was a chance to talk to her.

So here I was, sitting on Sams laptop and typing out an email to her. Hopefully she`d check it at some point.

Hey Ella!

Look... I don`t know what to say exactly. But I`m sorry? Maybe I shouldn`t have put you through all that. But what choice did I have? It was the devil or the world. Be reasonable. But yeah I guess it could have gone a lot more smoother if I had been more considerate. Point is, I care about you, you`re my best friend and literally the only one who gets me. So please, just let me know you`re okay. Come back, talk to me, what`s going on?

Lucifer`s dead now, there`s no point dwelling in it. Just come back and we can move on. He is dead though, right? I`m a little confused about how you disappeared, please just talk to me.

Quinn.

After clicking send, I just stared at the screen for a while. There were already a dozen sentences I regretted writing, but it was too late to change anything. Now it was all up to faith.

Ella

When I woke up, Lucifer was crouched beside the stereo, listening to Crystals on repeat.

"What are you doing?" I asked slowly, crawling onto my knees.

"Listening to music." he replied matter-of-factly "It`s quite entertaining."

"Right." I smiled at my success.

"Are you hungry?" he asked randomly.

"Yeah actually..." I was hungry "How`d you know?"

"It`s been several hours since you`ve eaten." he noted "I`m catching onto human survival."

"Would you like a medal?" I teased.

"Any reward would suffice." he played along.

"Well then." I walked over to him "How about I let you take me for a movie? I`m craving popcorn."

"I thought I was the one getting the reward?"

"You are." I smirked "It`s an honour to take me to a movie."

"Sure..." he replied sarcastically.

"But only if you`re feeling better. It`s okay if you can`t. I`ve got some cash from the Winchesters, I could just grab something from that pizza hut across the street?"

"No I`ll take you." he answered a little sternly.

"Aww, well aren`t you sweet." I teased a little more and he glared at me.

"You`re pushing it." he muttered, before offering me his hand.

"Actually..." I looked him over "You should change first, you`re shirt`s kind of... bloody?"

"Yeah that can happen when you get stabbed." he muttered absent mindedly before standing up and heading towards Nicks closet, which was attached to the room. For a moment he rummaged through it before holding out two T-shirts: one bright red, and the other a light gray.

"Opinion?" he asked.

"You look better in lighter colours." I noted and he scoffed, but pulled the gray one off the hanger. I expected him to walk into the other room to change, but instead he just tore his bloodied shirt off right in front of me.

He noticed my reaction and teased: "You can turn your innocent little eyes away if you`d like?"

I did.

"That`s adorable." he chuckled.

"Just shut up." I grumbled, blushing a little.

"All done." he said after a while and I had realized he had also put on another flannel jacket "So movie right?"

"Yup." I sat on the edge of the bed.

"Think there`s a cinema down a few blocks." he offered me his hand again and gingerly I took it. In a few seconds we were zapped into a Cineplex, surprisingly none of the people seemed to notice, probably too caught up getting their tickets or waiting in line.

"So what we watching?" he glanced at the movie posters on the walls.

"Well..." personally I looked over all the comedy ones, thinking something funny would lighten the dark mood. And why is the mood dark you ask? Well because having your own best friend betray you can leave a person a little depressed.

"Can we see this one?" Lucifer said suddenly and I glanced at him to see his was staring at a horror movie poster in fascination. Underneath in big bold letters were written: Can you out run the Devil?

Once again I gave it a look over. So basically he wanted to watch a horror film about himself. Ironic.

"I don`t know..." I began to say.

"Don`t tell me you`re scared?" he cocked an eyebrow.

"Don`t play that game with me." I grumbled "You`re going to make me feel like a weakling so that the only way I can defend my pride is by watching the movie with you. And for your information; no I`m not scared. I can totally watch this movie, so yeah, let`s watch it."

He smiled in amusement as I went over to the ticket booth, pulling out the cash the Winchesters had given me.

After a few minutes we were sitting in the cinema while the movie went on. It was terrifying from the beginning; considering it started off by having a little girl get possessed by the devil and murder her parents. During most of it the audience screamed and gasped, but whenever something bloody or horrifying would happen: Lucifer would laugh. People actually turned back to glare at him as he chuckled while the little girl repeatedly stabbed the nice, cute mail man.

Talk about a twisted sense of humor.

I screamed a little at some of the parts, and mockingly Lucifer asked: "Aww, do you wanna hold my hand?"

"No. Thank. You." I tried to sound confident "I`m not even that scared; I`m a strong, independent white woman that needs no man to hold hands with."

He looked at me unconvinced then after a while, leaned in and whispered: "This movie`s actually pretty creative, it`s giving me a lot of great ideas. Perhaps I should try doing that."

I shuddered a little at the thought of that, and he smirked in amusement. You see, what makes watching horror movies easily is the fact that it`s all supposed to be fiction. But in my particular case, I knew all that happening was very, very possible.

Near the ending, when the devil left the human girl; she became so mentally disturbed that she just started crying, while ominous laughter played in the background. At that point Lucifer had fallen off his chair, laughing like crazy, while I just sat there; unable to move. Why the hell did I watch this movie? Supernatural I could totally handle without breaking a sweat, but this scared the crap out of me.

So kids, this is what happens when you decide to watch a horror movie with Satan. I guess it`s okay though... not like I was planning on sleeping tonight.

As the cinema emptied, I glanced at Lucifer who was still recovering from the supposed 'humor' in the movie.

"Can we go now?" I asked.

"In such a rush to go?" he teased again "Just look at you, you`re practically shaking."

"Well you see." I was starting to get annoyed "The whole point of a horror movie, is to horrify you."

"This is a horror movie?" he said innocently "I thought it was comedy."

"Yeah right." I scoffed, easily noticing his sarcasm.

"Alright." he simply shrugged "Back to Nicks place?"

"Actually..." I thought about it for a while "There really is nothing to do back there, and I`m not sleepy..."

"Well, I know what we can do back there?" he flashed me a guiltless smile.

"Why does that sound wrong?" I blinked at him.

"Because it is." he hinted and I rolled my eyes, trying to hide the fact that I was blushing.

"That sound tempting and all." I said sarcastically "But I`ll pass."

"Your loss." he purred "But alright, where too now?"

"Somewhere pretty?" I suggested, my eyes lighting up a little.

"Well aren`t you original." he offered me a hand and I took it. In a few seconds we were standing over a series of hills, there was clusters of snow tainting bits of grass, but mostly it was just green. They seemed to go on forever, rolling over one another, circling a beautiful crystal lake and creating what would seem like a paradise.

"Where are we?" I asked curiously.

"Well..." he smiled a little, his eyes seemed to be twinkling with... pride? "This was the first valley my father ever created. Personally, my favourite."

"Can you be more specific?" I asked and he pulled his gaze away from the sight and onto me.

"Kaghan Valley, Pakistan." he said matter-of-factly.

"Oh... eh cool?" I replied and he gave me a pathetic look, before slouching down and sitting against the grass. Calmly, I followed his example and took a seat beside him, the coldness of the grass making my hands feel numb.

"So..." I decided to start a conversation "Tell me a story."

"Well." he smirked "Once upon a time there was a king and queen. They both died. The End."

"Let me rephrase." I muttered "Tell me a good story."

"I find that offensive..." he pretended to look hurt.

"I honestly don`t care." I shrugged.

"Since when did you become so cruel?"

"Right... I`m the cruel one." I said sarcastically.

"Yup." he nodded encouragingly.

For a moment we just stayed quiet, appreciating the beauty around us. Well at least that`s what I was doing. Lucifer was just lying there and playing with grass...

"Hey Lucy?" I asked after a bit.

"Mhm?" he continued to toy with the grass.

"If I was the one dying." I glanced at him "Would you do the same to save me?"

"Haven`t I already?" he said dryly "I did save you from Abbadon."

"So that`s a yes?"

"Yes."

"So... why?"

He sat up now, sighing, but smiling; looking generally amused.

"You really are oblivious, my little lamb." he teased again.

"Oblivious to what, pray tell?" I cocked an eyebrow.

"To the obvious."

"Are you just going to stall, or do you intend to answer the question?"

"Ella." he ran a hand through his short blonde hair "I think, I like you a lot more then I should."

"You`ll have to be more specific." I nudged a little closer to him, noticing how open he looked, how vulnerable.

"You..." his voice was soft and frail "Are one of the only humans who ever bothered trying to save me. Who ever bothered trying to fix me. When most people here my name, they grab their crosses and holy water, prepare to fight me off without hesitation. But instead of building up defenses you left yourself open to me, and frankly, I couldn`t help but do the same."

I could only blink at him.

"You`re just a mere human though..." he sighed "I really shouldn`t care, I really don`t want too. But honestly, I don`t think I can help myself. I want you to stay by me, for as long as you want. Because I`ll always want your company, you make me feel... good? I don`t want to ever force you to stay by me, but if we continue to stay like this, I`m not sure I`ll be able to let you go. So I need to know now, are you sure about that confession? Are you sure you want me?"

"Want you?" I scoffed "You know you`re the devil? You know you`re practically a killer? Practically as evil as it gets. Practically everything a human like me should stay away from. But the thing is... I don`t really care, I think in time I can fix you, I can show you everything you haven`t understood, but basically, the point is... I want you. Lucifer."

"The funny thing is..." he smirked "I think I want you too."
