This is my first story in a while, so take that in to mind when reading. I'm also a little late to the party as far as posting my reactions to 3/24. Anyone who's read my work before knows I usually post just a little teaser of sorts as the first chapter. So I hope you like it, if all goes to plan I'll have the next chapter for you lovely people tomorrow. Please comment. Of course I own none of these lovely characters.
"It's all true." Chloe took a small step backward. For a half second Lucifer hoped it was Cain's body on the floor that caused it, but he knew better. "It's all true." Chloe was almost to the stairs when Lucifer saw his reflection in some broken glass.
"Detective…" He tried to speak, but for the first time ever didn't have words. He took a breath and tried again, "I did tell you." He hoped levity would help, he hadn't wanted her to see him like this. She kept moving back, and Lucifer was smart enough to stay where he was. If he had moved he might have been able to catch her when she tripped on the stairs. "Detective." He started again.
Chloe turned to catch herself, and when she faced the devil it was Lucifer standing in front of her, just Lucifer. "It's all true." She really wanted to say something else but what do you say when your world is flipped upside down.
"I'll just go." Lucifer turned for the balcony.
"No Lucifer!" For half a minute Chloe thought he was going to jump. "Wings." She whispered, she looked at the feathers on the ground, he had wings.
"What was that detective?" Lucifer stopped hoping against hope that this wasn't the end for them.
"I mean…" Chloe started but stopped, he started back to the balcony. Before he could make an exit Dan and half of LA's finest filled the room, with Ella right behind them.
"What the hell happened?" Dan looked at the mess of feathers and his dead lieutenant in the middle of it.
"Yes… hell." Chloe sighed, "the king of it no less." She added before heading toward the door. Before adding something about needing some air.
"Chloe…" Dan started after her.
"Give her some time." She thought he heard Lucifer stop him. "I'll give my statement and that should clear this whole thing up."
Once she was outside she didn't know where to go or what to do. The devil, her best friend was the real actual devil, they were almost lovers. Wait that meant...Maze… Trixie! Chloe needed to get home to her baby. What kind of mother was she? Her daughter's favorite people in the world were the devil and his most loyal demon.
