*What felt like one month, the author has finally updated*

I stopped dead in my tracks.

"W-what did you say?"

Did he not realise Calliah was in the hospital?

"Yeah, visit her. Why?" Lucifer furrowed his eyebrows,

I shifted my eyes in discomfort.

"She's... In hospital." I mumble, finally letting him know, not daring to look up,

"OK. And?" He shrugged,

Fucking shrugged.

"Do you not care? Someone's in hospital and you don't care?!" I yell, he sighed and ruffed the edge of his hair,

"Look, I can't always be with everyone. I have a kingdom to run, so if you'll excuse me."

I was shocked,

"So if I was in her state, you wouldn't come?" I clenched my fists tighter.

He turned around and smiled at me in sadness, "I'm sorry." He spoke, my eyes tearing up,

Where was the sweet Lucifer I know,

"Why are you acting like this? You would choose your kingdom over, over your family?!"

"Yes! Yes I would!" He exclaimed, before storming off and leaving me in daze.

"What happened to you," I whisper quietly,

I opened my eyes, wondering what happened. But only could see a bright flashing light,

"Liah?" I turned my head to see Gela sobbing,

Why?

I gently touched her cheek, reassuring I'm OK.

"Where am I?" I asked her, "I-In the hospital,"

Memories of him flashed back,

"Don't fucking say a word,"

That rang over and over,

I let a tear fall out, not in sadness but in fear,

Fear of him coming back.

"W-what happened?" Gela asked, pulling out of my thoughts,

I bit my tongue from screaming and bagging for help,

"It's nothing," I tell her, she shook her head in disbelief, "How is it nothing if you ahem a bruise on your left eye and marks on your arms and legs," Gela pointed out,

I removed my hand from hers, not wanting to feel her warmth,

"Another time," I tell her, wanting this conversation to end, Gela noticed that,

So she nodded in understanding, the door suddenly opened,

Lucifer.

I thought as he approached me,

"Hey," I spoke and smile at him, playing with the ends of Lucifer's hair,

He sighed in relief, making me giggle. "Your here?" I question, surprised he was here.

"I couldn't leave you, besides, you're my only mortal friend." Lucifer hummed, gently grabbing my wrist, placing it on his cheek, closing his eyes,

I gulped silently,

Only friends?

"Yaay," I light-heartily laugh, not. Gently rubbing his pale cheeks,
