Whack Me Anytime - Lucifer



I finished Lucifer season 5 and the DeckerStar content was everything!! This is a slight rewrite of one of the scenes that I thoroughly enjoyed. :) Sorry it's kinda short!

   You don't remember what happened. You woke up in a cell in that looked like it was in a cave. Last thing you remember happening before you woke up was delving into the dark web, trying to find the serial killer. You had found out who it was, and immediately called Lucifer, your voice shaking. It was Ella's boyfriend. How were you going to tell her? You were almost done with the voicemail when something was put over your head and you were knocked out.


   You heard footsteps approaching, and rush to the bars of the cage. 


   "Good you're up. Here I brought you something to eat and drink." The face of Lucifer, but with an American accent slid food and water to you through the bars. Michael.... 


   "I don't want anything from you." you growl. He huffs and rolls his eyes. 


   "Look I'm not going to hurt you (Y/N). I'm just trying to get to my brother. But..." he smirks slightly. "I dunno if it'll be that easy now."


   "What do you mean?" you ask after a moment's hesitation. 


   He chuckles, his hands going into his pockets. "Well you're supposed to make him vulnerable right? The only thing to make him vulnerable. Last I heard that was no longer the case. Have you stopped to ask yourself why? Perhaps....I dunno...it's cause his feelings for you have changed? I mean has even even said he loves you yet?"


   You hide the emotions as best you can. He was right. Lucifer had been shot at just a few days prior when you were next to him and was fine. You hadn't really thought about it much. COULD his feelings have changed?


   "You're wrong."


   He just shakes his head, smiling. "If you say so. But I'm not lying this time." He checks his watch. "I have to go. I'll bring you back something else to eat. Even if you don't trust me enough to eat." Michael turns and leaves again, leaving you by yourself in the cave again. 


   You spend the next 2 hours pacing, trying to think of a way to escape and stop thinking about the words Michael said. He's trying to enhance fear. That's what he does (Y/N). Don't trust anything he said. It isn't true. 


   You settle on grabbing a large stick with a stone on the end of it, probably for an animal that used to be caged here. You hear footsteps approaching and hide back in the shadows, out of sight. The cage door opens, and you count down until the person is in reach. You swing the makeshift hammer down on the persons head and make a break for it. You're only a few paces out of the bars before you see 2 other figures approaching.


   "Maze? Daniel?" you gasp, short of breath from the adrenaline. "What are you doing here?"


   "That's a mighty swing you've got there, Detective." The British accent from behind you says. You turn and see Lucifer rubbing the back of his head while he ducks through the doorway to stand in front of you. "Are all abandoned zoos this dangerous?" 


   You feel tears well up in your eyes at the sight of him. "Lucifer..." you whisper, rushing towards him. You reach up to his face and kiss him firmly, melting into him. His arms go around your waist and him behind your neck, holding you firmly against him while he kisses you. It's almost as if he worries you'll disappear if he lets go. You break away and pull him into a tight hug, your arms around his neck.


   "I'm so sorry I thought you were Michael." 


   He rocks you gently. "It's okay." he breathes out with a light laugh. "You can whack me anytime." He breathes out a sigh of relieve and nuzzles his face into your hair, his arms tightening slightly.


   "He really does care about her doesn't he?" Daniel asks Maze quietly from behind you. There's a pause.


   "Yeah. I reckon soulmates." she says with a slight bitter tone.


   Lucifer pulls out of the hug, but keeps an arm around your waist, afraid to let you go more than arms length away from him. "We found the serial killer."


   You nod, breathing out a small sigh of relief. "Good."


   "Alright. Let's get you home." He exchanges a look with Maze and Daniel before escorting you out of the cave. 


   You finally sleep soundly the entire flight home. Lucifer smiles each time he looks down to see your sleeping form. You were finally back with him. Safe. 


   "I won't let him hurt you again, (Y/N)." he whispers, holding you closer to his chest to block some of the wind.


   Michael was going to pay for what he did.
