It was you Chloe. It always has been.

"Hey, Linda," she says as soon as her friend picks up the phone. "Have you seen Lucifer this mor—"

"I'm not responsible for whatever he said or done, okay?!" Linda exclaims straight away. 

Chloe feels one of her files sliding under her arm and walks into the kitchen, putting it on the counter. She frowns, surprised by her reaction. 

"O-okay?" is all she finds to answer. "Not what I'm asking but… good to know. I guess?"

"It's not?"

Linda sounds surprised too, almost… relieved?

Chloe feels unpleasant apprehension rising from her guts. "So, you saw him."

"I-" Linda hesitates, then confirms her that Lucifer has indeed come to her office. "I did. But you know I can't tell you what our session was all about," she adds quickly. 

"Again, not what I'm asking. And if we think about it… you started first."

"Yeah, well… I- I though-"

"You thought 'what'?" insists Chloe, ever more puzzled. 

A long sigh ensues. 

"You'll find out soon enough. Knowing him."

Chloe's face wouldn't have been able to express any deeper puzzlement right now. Turning around, she exclaims, "What the hell are y—?"

Her gaze naturally finds its way to her desk, the rest of her sentence stopped in tracks by puzzlement and exasperation. 

"Never mind," she sighs, not taking her eyes off Lucifer. "I got the picture."

She then looks behind Chloe, towards the closed door, through the window showing the rest of the precinct. Her thumbs up go slightly down. 

"Where's Lucifer?"

"Not here," says Chloe, so fast that her anxiety about him can be distinctly heard. 

She finds herself trapped in Ella's tight embrace in a second, her friend rubbing her back. "Oh, girl! It's fine, he's fine. He is fine!" she tries to comfort her, her breath tickling her neck. "I'm sure he is, don't worry, Decker."

"I- I don't," Chloe reassures her, puzzled. "Why would I?"

Ella clings to her neck, rubbing her back and comforting her for worries she clearly doesn't feel at the moment. Hugs come first, right? Still, Chloe would have liked to know the reason of this loving hug. She didn't sound that desperate, did she? Lucifer's not here. This isn't something bad. 

No big deal. 

"No need to play hardball with me, lady! You've barely left each other for a second since he's back. And that's okay, and so so so cute and… and I'm sure Lucifer has a very good reason for not being here with you, like he usually did. There's no need to freak out, right?"

"Right," repeats Chloe while pushing softly on Ella's arms so that she can breathe a bit easier. "It's okay, he's just…he's just running a bit late, that's all. That's fine."

Saying this, Chloe takes notice of the truth, the excessive but nevertheless truth in Ella's speech. In two weeks of time, Lucifer has never - ever - missed one single appointment with her. Always on time, sometimes earlier, he has been here; at her side. With the consuming need to feel his presence, she has never complained about it herself, never asked for a change either. Both liked the effort, being back to normal; both disliked these long hours on their own, waiting for an all new day to dawn, for another moment together. 

Lucifer even has complied with paperwork lately, quite willingly. Most of the time. 

Shit. 

They've become so addicted to each other so fast. This 'Persephone' thing is far more serious shit than Chloe has thought first. 

Your addiction is much older, she thinks despite her common sense, thinking along with her primal senses instead.

                                     The worst of Eternity’s remaining

"Would you prefer to feel what you felt for Eve instead? What you felt for any other lovers of your life here?"

Lucifer takes a moment to think about it. What he'd felt for his lovers hadn't been much, perhaps… fondness? He's not sure he's using the right term for what it really was back then. As each of these people has told to the Detective two years ago - it was just about sex. 

Just sex.

And Eve?

It had been more between them, more than with his past lovers obviously, but less than he had first hoped. He had felt less than he ever felt near Chloe. At this point, everything inside him feels more whenever she is lurking around. Always more, in opposition to the gaping hole within him when he took back his place in Hell. 

He rubs his fingers, shakes his head softly. "No."

His gaze meets Linda's once more. She nods, sympathetic.

"Change is a scary thing, Lucifer. It's all the more scary when you're about to take a significant step forward in your relationship with someone. You've told how much you care for each other, you've accepted Chloe's feelings for you as she has with yours for her. This is a wonderful significant step forward."

He makes a face. She notices.

I WILL NOT SAY GOODBYE - 6

_____

Linda shakes her head. "I'm talking about Chloe here, Lucifer."

He sits up, rubbing his hands on his pants. 

"Ow, right. Right… Forgive my misunderstanding, Doctor. I thought we were talking about lovers, not about the Detective."

"So you don't see Chloe as your lover?"

"Well, I…." He breathes in. "The word 'lover' implies something more 'carnal' than what we'd done together lately, she and I. We're not lovers yet… not strictly speaking."

"What have you done together so far?"

After he has leaned more comfortably against the back of the couch, Lucifer smiles at her. Its fabric and stiff conception doesn't help to get comfortable, however. Lucifer's sudden tension doesn't help either. 

"You know what, Doctor."

She leans forward, persistent as ever, as he has feared she would be. As he has hoped her to be, in a way. It's him who has come to her, hasn't he? He did it to feel the inconsistency between Hell and Earth. 

"I'd like to hear it from your mouth, actually."

"Eager for juicy details, are we?" he replies, tension turning his smile into a jolly mockery.  

Linda waits quietly for his answer. She wouldn't give up now, would she? 

Sighing, Lucifer looks away. "All right. Before I go, we… we expressed our feelings for each other. And since I've been back, we— I kissed her. Just once, that was yesterday. Well, it's the second, if we take into account the one on my balcony that night."

Linda frowns, it lasts a second, before she comes back to a neutral, attentive expression.

"And… that's it? Why didn't you—" She looks for appropriate words. "—take the plunge? From what you've told us, Amenadiel and I, your return isn't meant to last, so… I mean, after all you've both been through, it'd be totally understandable that you'd both want to take your relationship to the next level." 

"The Devil likes to take his time, Doctor ; you're well-aware of this."

She coughs with embarrassment. 

"I am. But you don't have that much 'time', do you? Also, you've been separated from each other for a very long time. I bet it's not the same in Hell than our time here… Still, it's been six earthly months for Chloe."

She shrugs. "How long has it been for you, Lucifer?"

He clenches his right fist on his tight. "Long enough, Doctor."

Sensing the subject as a sensitive one, she doesn't dig it further. She gives him a reassuring smile that relaxes the knuckles of his hand. 

"Did you…" She hesitates. "Did you try to fill your carnal needs down there?"
