Chapter Text

CHAPTER 1 - The Bus Stop
Lucifer stands impatiently at the bus stop, tapping his leg against the ground with his scuffed shoes. His gaze remained fixated on the uneven pavement as his hands scrunch up the test paper in his hand.
“20/20 Well done!”
What did he care? He hated school, contradictory to his good academic achievements, he longed for a taste of academic freedom. He smiled to himself as he imagined himself with his best friend at the pool, playing sport, kissing his soft lips-

A cough next to him startled him awake from his reverie. He looked up shyly before breaking into a wide grin.

“What’re you doing out here, hm?” You murmured, sliding over to him. Your hair was tousled as it covered half your face, conveniently covering the slight red tinge rising to your face. Your uniform was pulled around, unbuttoned and tie loose.

Lucifer’s gaze trailed down to your loose tie and the bare skin of your collarbone and neck, face going equally as red.
“Uh- nothing! I mean- I’m waiting for the bus…” He stammered. His hair was perfect, soft and blonde while his uniform was crisp and clean, perfect.

You sighed as you flopped onto the bench.
“Liar, you missed your bus an hour ago.” You smirked as you watched him panic internally. “Come on, I’ll take you home.” You said casually.
“Wha-?! No! It’s fine, bro PLEASE it’s fine I swear-“
“Shut yo ass up.”
You said, pulling on his tie as you dragged him around the corner of the block. The soft evening light cast a heavenly glow across both of you. Reluctantly, you let go of his tie as both of you walked together in comfortable silence. Lucifer’s hand brushes against yours.

“…you know…” he starts, trailing off.
“Hm?”
He goes a little red, “we could… go back to yours…since like- yknow!! Your- parents aren’t home…?” He stutters.
you whistle, “sure, I mean, they’re on a business trip sooo…I’m down.”
He looks relieved as he takes your hand and rushes to your front door.

Once inside, you chuck your bag against your door while Lucifer places his gently next to yours. You put your dark red velvet blazer on the back of your chair and flop down into the plush couch. He sits down next to you, leaning against you as he holds your hand.

“I’m scared…”
It comes out as barely a whisper, you look down, soft but confused.
“Why?”
“Whats gonna happen if the demons at school find out about us…? I mean, I’m the prince of Hell…”
He looks close to tears now, alarmed, you hold his face in your hands gently.
“So what if they find out that we’re dating? It wouldn’t change a thing, no?” You murmur, trying to console him.
“But- my parents! They’ll kill me…”
“We’ll run away together! To the Sloth Ring! Start brand new!” You say, half joking but totally ready to leave and start anew with him if he wanted.

You would do anything for this boy. He starts crying, tears slipping down like heavy secrets and promises that threaten to leak. You wipe them away gently with your thumb. He wraps his arm around your waist, head against your chest. The gradual rise and falling of your breathing seemed to calm him more than anything ever could.

He looks up at you with stars in his eyes as he smiled softly, red pupils burning like embers as you run your fingers through his soft hair. Slowly, he sits up rubs his eyes. You interlock his fingers with yours, holding each other warmly.

CHAPTER 2 - Unprompted Photoshoots in Gym Class
The hallways are tightly packed as you move through the swarm of half awake students. You manage to push through and make it to your locker, sighing to yourself, you open the locker to find a sea of letters. You open one, reading it.

“Heyyyy [name]! Ur like, super cute. Wanna go grad with me?
Xoxo, Blaire”

Eugh… Graduation…

You hated parties, before you met Lucifer, you REALLY wanted to go with Blaire. But she was poisonous (and you hated her a lot…and you weren’t into girls).
You scrunch up the note as well as all the other ones into a bin before taking your books and hurrying to class.

In science class, Lucifer, you and some other really shy kid sit on a table. These were your groups for a project. You sit with my laptop open
and Lucifer sits with his notebook resting against his thigh. The quiet kid works on the presentation. There’s an awkward silence that hushes over our table, maybe it’s because the quiet kid suspects something between me and Luci.

“So…. Are you guys like… dating or something??” The quiet kid asks, looking between you two.
“no!” You both say in unison, the kid rolls his eyes and goes back to his laptop. Lucifer is bright red. The clock ticks like a death sentence before the bell rings for lunch.

At lunch, Lucifer and you sit under the large tree on the outskirts of the school, right by the gates. We talk in hushed murmurs and occasional laughter.

After lunch, we both go our separate ways as you go to Gym class and he goes to his music lesson. You slip into the boys’ locker room and change into a tank top with the school shorts. You yawn as you come out to the field, stretching as the coach looks at us impatiently.
“ALRIGHT CLASS-“
You wince at the sudden loudness.
“-TODAY YOU WILL BE RUNNING LAPS, COUNT THEM UP AND SEE IF YOU ARE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE UPCOMING SCHOOL RACE!”

You groaned along with the class. Everyone hated the annual Hell’s Fastest Camp as much as they hated eternal damnation. You rolled your eyes, and of course, your coach had to see.
“[NAME]! DROP AND GIVE ME 20, NOW FOR THE ATTITUDE!”
“Yes coach…” you mumbled as everyone set off for their running. As you did your 20 push ups, a group of students burst through the doors, Lucifer among them. While the other students started photographing their surroundings, Lucifer only had eyes for you.

He watched as you did your push ups, sweat shining on your arms. He never knew how much muscle you had under your uniform. His face burned scarlet as he knelt on one knee, holding his camera to capture you in the moment. He quickly got up and uploaded it to his phone before scurrying off to complete his photography task.

CHAPTER 3 - Detention and Makeouts “HEY FAG!” Someone shouted at you, you froze as the hallway packed with students made way with bated breath to see what would happen. You tried to ignore it, everyday without fail, the same bully beat you black and blue for being a -
“PIECE OF SHIT!” She shouted, face inches from yours as she yanked your hair. You winced and shuddered as she pulled harder.

“N-no wait plea-“
“YOU HEAR THAT? N-NO PLEASE!” She mocked, smile curling into something cruel as she aimed a blow at your stomach. You grunted as the blow landed, blood coughed out from you. She slapped you as the students watched in fear. You were weak in the knees and you felt like you were going to-
You coughed and sputtered as you threw up the contents of your lunch…all over her.

She shrieked, letting go of you as she pulled away. Another student had gotten a teacher involved.
“DETENTION!” Was the last thing you heard before collapsing onto the floor unconscious.

The teacher looked stunned as your shirt lifted slightly, revealing new and old bruises, painted red, black and purple repeatedly. The bully looked rather guilty as the teacher turned to her.
“Actually… DETENTION FOR BOTH OF YOU! NO FIGHTING IN THE HALLS! YOU MISS-“ the teacher grabbed her arm. “-LUNCH DETENTION!”

You stirred awake and dragged yourself to the office, leaning against the door. You opened the office door as the headmaster looked repulsed and pitifully at you.
“Just sit down [name]…” he sounded tired and at his limit, so you obeyed without question.

He smiled at you, surprisingly, he wasn’t mad. He called another student to assist you back to class. It felt like an eternity before the student entered to office. You didn’t look up but thanked your headmaster before slinking out.

You heard the click of the student’s heeled shoes against the cold floors. You looked up.
“Wha- Luci??” You said, eyes wide. He nodded as he lead you into the bathrooms. You sat on the toilet with your shirt hung on the hook in the stalls. Lucifer knelt before you and applied medicinal cream to his hands before rubbing it into your chest and torso.

His hands were cold against your bare skin, you shivered, heat rising to your face. Squirming, he held you still with his hands on your waist, he looked down at you as he stood while you sat. You felt exposed, but in the most feverish way ever.

He held your face in his hands, bringing his face closer to yours until…
“S-Sorry… I shouldn’t…” he murmured. He looked at you before flinching at the bell. School had ended for today.

CHAPTER 4- 2 Days Until the Grad Party!
The past week had been the most hectic of your life, not including getting your ass beat. you laid on your bed, letting the pillows and blankets swallow you whole as sleep ebbed in and out like the ocean tide. Despite it being the most chaotic week, the teachers decided to take mercy and spare yall from any homework.

“10:37pm”

Your clock glowed red as the time displayed like a trophy. Normally you were asleep due to the amount of homework, but tonight, something felt…
Off… You thought, frowning as you tossed in bed. You sighed in frustration as insomnia taunted you like you were a marionette.

Sitting up, you shoved your glasses on carelessly as you massaged your temple.

What WOULD happen if Lucifer’s parents found out he was in love with another guy? I know mine wouldn’t care…they’re always out of the house… His parents are SUPER strict though…

Grinning to yourself, you thought mischievously, What if I went to Lucifer’s house right now? The thought barely formed in your head before you started getting dressed. Yes, it was a casual, unprompted hangout, but you still wanted to get dolled up.

You decided on the grungiest outfit you have, a Nirvana T-shirt and baggy camo jorts with studded belts and kandi. You messily drew eyeliner under your eyes and clicked on your spiked collar. You did a once over before opening your window and-
“Wait, what the fuck am I doing? I live alone right now-“ you murmured to yourself, as you got down and swung open your front door.

A few blocks down you made it to his house- well, it was more of a luxurious mansion, with golden gates and freshly trimmed hedges with roses as red as blood that bloomed sinfully under the hellish moonlight. You sighed as you realised this was not going to be an easy break in.

You wandered around the front of the house before your eye catches an old metal pipe running up the side of the mansion all the way to the roof…
It also runs right beside Luci’s room window…
You observed, the lights were also on! Perfect.

You slunk into the dingy alleyway of the mansion and gripped onto the slightly rusted pipe. You hauled yourself up and climbed up precariously. You winced as you heard the pipe groan and creak.
“Shittttt…”
You whispered to yourself, hauling yourself up faster. At last, you reached his window, which was left open. You peeked inside and saw him hunched over his desk, poring over a book. You chuckled to yourself.

“Luciiiii~” you called, grinning slyly as you sat on the windowsill. He looked over and flinched so hard you thought he was going to fall over.
“[n]- [name]! What are you doing?! How’d you get through my window-?!” He whispered anxiously.
Damn he looks good… Lucifer thought, his eyes trailing over your rugged T-shirt and spiked jewellery. He goes slightly pink before shaking his head and helping you into his room.

“Y-you shouldn’t be here! My parents are gonna- mmphf~” You cut him short, grabbing his jaw and kissing him hard, one hand holding his waist closer to yours and the other holding his jaw tightly. You narrowed your eyes and smirked into the kiss as Lucifer’s eyes fluttered shut and his arms wrapped around your torso. He squirmed and you both broke apart, your forehead resting against his as a line of saliva connected between your mouths.

“I missed you…and how can I resist a pretty mouth like yours?” You murmur, grinning slyly as Lucifer’s face flushes up.
“You-!” He starts.
“Hm?”
“…nothing, shut up…”
You chuckle as he frowns at you.
“You’re coming to graduation with me, yes?” You murmur. Lucifer’s breath hitches as he nods excitedly, grinning widely.

Step, step, click…
You both freeze as the sound of heeled boots click against the tiled floors outside the door. You scramble back to the window, waving goodbye to him as you slide down the pipe like a fire pole.

~

“Lucifer? What are you doing in there?” a soft, tired voice of a woman’s came from the other side of the door.
“Nothing mama…Just getting ready for bed now!” Lucifer cringed at his poor excuse, but the sound of his mother retreating filled him with relief.

CHAPTER 5 - The Day Before The Grad Party!!
It was the day before the party!! Lucifer could hardly keep up with his own excitement as he went out to buy a black suit and tie (he didn’t need to rent one, he partially owned all of Hell anyway.) You, however, bought a sleek, crisp white suit and tie. You giddily bought a limo second hand while the old owner gushed to you over the phone about young love or whatever…

Since it was the Thursday before Graduation, the school had let their students stay home for preparing with their dates! You had panicked when you got the notification on the bus to school because you couldn’t just tell the driver to turn around! So, what did you do? You got dropped off at school and immediately RAN to the closest formal attire store.

You sighed in irritation as you felt a blinding headache forming behind your eyes. You sit gingerly on the couch as you rub your forehead, grumbling.
“Stupid…freakin…headache…”
You slumped over and groaned as you heard a knock on your front door.
“Coming…!”
You open the door to see Lucifer, who looks as equally as exhausted as you.

“Luci! Hey…” you murmur, as you shut the door and he envelopes you into a hug. He buries his face into your chest, mumbling something about being tired.
“‘Kay…?” You mumble, both of you sitting on the couch tiredly.
“GOD, I regret asking you so late…” you mumble.
“Excuse me? What the fuck?” Lucifer stands up suddenly, you look at him, confused.
“Wha-“
“Fuck you mean you regret asking me? You don’t want to go anymore?” He starts shouting.
“Wait wait wait-! That is NOT what I said-“
“THEN?? What did you say then?!?”

It’s pretty obvious that the both of you are tired as shit. You put your hands up pleadingly.
“Look mate, I said I regret asking you so LATE. I mean that as in I should’ve asked EARLIER… ya got that…?”
“…oh…sorry…”
We fall silent as lucifer leans into my side. My eyelids begin to feel heavy as the world outside melts into a deep hum. My eyes close as lucifer nestles next to me. I fall asleep as lucifer sits next to me.

~

Lucifer sat next to you as you slept peacefully. He fiddled with a Polaroid photo from school. He looked down at it and blushed. Hard. The photo was of you! When you were in gym class doing those fuck-ass pushups because your coach is petty.

He sighed as he looked at it, the way your muscles shone with sweat awoke something in lucifer that made him shy and blushy that day.

He tucked the photo into his pocket and slept beside you.

 

CHAPTER 6 - Partying with a few Issues

Lucifer drummed his fingers nervously on his lap as he adjusted the lapels of his black suit in the back of the limo you bought. Obviously, you couldn’t hire a driver so you were driving. He stared at his hands before smiling.
“[name]! Are you okay…?”
You startled, jolting before grinning.
“Mhm, you ready?”
“For…?”
“Making a scene…” you grin as he groaned.

‘Making a scene’ included both of you going to Graduation together. Of course, two guys going to a graduation party isn’t an issue, but people will be staring. Lucifer groaned again as he stretched.

You turned into the parking lot, making Lucifer slide against the door.
“Sorry…” you mumble, parking, “right, let’s go!” You say, opening the door for him as you take his hand, allowing him to step out the car. As you stepped into the school, you were bathed in a bright light of fragmented whites and blues. You gasped lightly as the light reflected off everything even slightly shimmery.

You and Lucifer walked around and chatted for a while before the music cut in and played. Lucifer looked at you mischievously before taking your hand and dancing with you. You laughed as you spun him around, having the time of your life. You two stayed close together before you went over to get a drink.

“Well… if it isn’t the little fag of the school~” your stomach twisted as you turned around, only to see the same bully from a few days earlier.
“Hey, I’m not here to cause a problem Elle- OOF-!” you got kneed in the stomach. People turned to stare as you tried not to double over. You gripped the table as the music cut, the DJs looked over in interest.
“…seriously…?” You mutter to yourself, standing up straight, looking at Elle, the bully. She stood tall and proud in her tacky glittery dress and heels.

“Yo don’t you think that’s enough? On Graduation too?” Someone said, glaring at Elle.
“Oh come ON! You seriously want this fag roaming around the school?” She laughed, high and cruel.
In the midst of that, Lucifer had come over to assist you in a state of worry, he let you lean on him as you groaned in pain.
“Take your tacky ass back to the dollar store where I saw you buy that dress, bitch!” You heard someone else shout. She glared as she kicked you again with her heels. Tears stung at your eyes, but you didn’t fight back.

You weren’t as low class to hit a woman, but she definitely stooped too low. You stalked off with Lucifer holding you upright.
“…I got the drinks!” You managed, risking a sly grin at him.
“Seriously!?” He said exasperated, looking at you. You nod, before sitting down on the floor. Lucifer looked down at you, amused before sitting beside you.
“You never change…” he murmurs, unheard over the loud music”
“Hm?”
“Nothing…” he said with a slight lilt to his tone.

You and Lucifer made your way over to the tables set in the other room. Each table was decorated elaborately with white velvet like tablecloth and lace napkins.

As you two sat down, a peaceful serenity hushed the noise from outside, muffling all sounds from the loudness outside. For a while, neither of you spoke before Lucifer looked at you softly.
“You’ll always be there for me, won’t you [name]?” He murmured tenderly, holding your hand like a lifeline.
You sighed, content in the moment’s fragility.
“Of course, I’ll be with you,” you mumbled, suddenly shy. Your face went a little red. Lucifer softened as he saw you flush up, colour rising in his own face.
“…till death do us part?”
You cocked a sly grin, a little amused but touched nonetheless.
“Till death do us part, baby…” you echoed, confirming.

His hand went up to brush your messy hair out of your face before resting in your cheek, holding you as he brought you closer to him. You held the back of his neck as lucifer fluttered his eyes shut. Your lips met in a soft kiss before letting go, enjoying the moment.
~THE END <3~
