Summary
Lucifer is gone, and Chloe is left treading water, refusing to move ahead, refusing to look back. An old case comes back to haunt Chloe and changes everything.
---
The passage of time can be the strangest thing. Sometimes, Chloe Decker would wait for her partner to crack the predictable, inappropriate joke, eyeroll at the ready. Sometimes she would pick up the phone to call him when she caught a new case. Sometimes she found herself sitting in the parking lot of Lux, ready to go ask him where the hell he has been and if he is ready to get back to work. No matter what, though, she eventually remembers. She remembers that Lucifer left to save them all. He returned to a place he had adamantly fought returning to, a place he abhorred. She remembers that for a short, misguided time, she tried to send him back to that place. She remembers his face when he realized her betrayal.
