Lucifer x Reader

TW//Self image issues, mentions of depression, mentions of death, death, angst maybe?

You knew of a man in LA. You didn't have a permanent residence in Dallas. So you had packed up your things. You had recently left your job. The boss made you quit, he gave you extra money since he knew you were going through a small rough patch, with the burials of your family. Now you didn't wanna seem like the cliche protagonist, with the dead family, but they had recently passed in a car accident with a truck. After that, you were lonely. Your brother had bean your only friend, now that was sad, but it was true. And now you were lonely. You had heard of a man in Los Angeles who can grant wishes, but the cost, no one has ever said. But this would be your only chance to at least have friends, or at least one friend.

You had driven from Dallas, Texas to a motel in New Mexico, to another motel before making it to Arizona, you drove all night and stopped at a motel in San Diego and stayed there for two days before driving up the coast and you had finally made it to Los Angeles. Finally, after all the fast food, you found a place where you could rent a basement.

The rent was semi-cheap, $650 a month, not bad. You had moved in the same day you found it, the owner was a bit skeptical, but you assure them you weren't trying to go into hiding or hiding from the cops, you actually told them the truth, well not the whole truth, you told them you were looking for a man here in Los Angeles. They didn't seem shocked and said they needed a beer and left.

You made sure to get a good night's sleep that night. When you woke up in the morning you had taken a shower and dressed up decently, well you thought you did at least, you had dressed up in a pair of jeans, which had to go against you and show of your curves and rolls that you didn't like to see in the mirror. You had a black oversized shirt that had the hem tucked into the jeans and to top it off you had a tan cardigan to go with it.

You slipped on your shoes and left the house and got in your car, you had started driving around and asking people, at some point you stopped and asked a woman. "Hey, excuse me?" You said as you pulled up your car beside her. "I'm looking for someone, um, he's known for making deals or something along those lines." You explained.

The woman sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. "By any chance is his name Lucifer?" She asked.

"Um, I think so, I'm not sure." You said unsurely as you tried to think.

"I was heading back to the police station, my name is Chloe Decker. I'm not really sure why you want to talk to Lucifer of all people, but you can follow me back to the station where he should be." Chloe said as she had leaned on the open window of your car.

"Okay, m-my name is [Y/N], w-would you like me to give you a ride to your car?" You asked nervously. Chloe looked like she was thinking, you were quiet and extremely nervous. "N-No pressure, its up to you, figuratively and literally.." You trailed off, she glanced at you. "I'll be quiet now."

"No it's okay, and I think I'll take you up on that offer." She said as she opened the car door and sat down. You waited for her to put on her seatbelt before following her directions. You eventually got to her car and let her out and then afterwards she thanked you and got in her car and you followed.

You both drove to the station and got out, you followed her in quietly. Once you and Chloe got in she motioned for you to sit in a chair at a desk with files and papers on it. Chloe was talking with other officers and then pulled out her phone. You couldn't hear what she was saying but within a few minutes after ending the call a tall man walked into the station.

He walked over to Chloe and they started talking and when you glanced over Chloe motioned towards you. Lucifer looked at you and then scoffed and walked over to you.

"Well I'm told you are looking for me, what does an innocent woman like you need?" He asked simply as he leaned on his hand which was now on the desk. You also were astonished at his accent, it was kind of attractive but by the looks of this and what you wanted, but the moment that one thought that went through your head, it left as soon as it had arrived.

"I was hoping to make a deal of sorts." You mumbled as you played with the hem of your cardigan.

"Ah, there it is, so pray-tell, what does the little woman desire most?" He asked while making uncomfortable eye contact with you.

"I would like a friend, also what's that look for?" You asked.

"You're kidding. You could have anything, and you would like a friend, it's honestly quite pathetic." He mumbled the last part very quietly while also ignoring your question about his stare.

"I know it's pathetic, don't remind me, but I don't like being alone and I've lost a few people that meant so much, I could really use a friend right now." You mumbled, now feeling ashamed for such a minuscule thing that you're selling your soul for.

"Okay, well, what type of friend are you looking for?" He asked.

"Doesn't really matter, it could really be anyone as long as they care about me." You said a bit louder than a mumble.

"Are you sure? No glory? No fame?" He asked, you immediately nodded. "Wow, this has got to be the most simple wish ever." He scoffed with a smirk.

"I'm sure." You said as Lucifer sighed.

"Follow me, [Y/N], we need somewhere more private." He said as he held out a hand for you to take, you took it as you realized you never told him your name, but then again Chloe could've told him. He pulled you up gently and then let go and walked out of the station, you forgot you were even there while talking to him, you followed him and you both walked to a more secluded area, which was a few blocks down and around the corner into an alleyway, you followed him as he walked through the alleyway, you felt as if you were gonna die here, but it also gave you a sense of relief. He stopped at the end of the alleyway which had led to a small gravel path.

"What are we doing here?" You asked.

"Finishing the deal, but I do warn you, I normally don't take souls, I always want favors and call them in when I need them, but at this point, I have already assessed your soul on the way here and made the decision that I want it." He explained as you looked puzzled. "Are you sure you only want a friend though?" He inquired with the same look as before that creeped you out.

"Again with that weird look, what are you doing?" You asked.

"Funny, my charm isn't working." He said.

"Charm? What charm? The only charm you've had so far is the charm to creep me out." You explained with a quiet and unsure tone.

"Interesting." He said, rolling the ing on his tongue, with a scarily interested look.

"Anyways, I want to make this deal." You said nervously as you fiddled with the hem of your cardigan again.

Lucifer snapped his fingers and a small light lit up, you gasped, it hurt for a few moments before it was numbed. You looked at him and he smiled. "Okay, well, it's done, at the end of your time, your soul goes to hell with me, where you could be forever tortured. But you knew about this didn't you?" He said, you knew he purposely didn't mention that.

You shook your head no, but then said, "Well, at least I'll have a friend until then." You gave a partial anxious smile.

"You are one of the most interesting humans I have ever met except the detective." He said

"Thank you?" You said questioningly. "Also who will become my friend?" You asked.

"You said anybody didn't you?" He asked. "Does it really matter, you got a friend now." He said curtly.

"Is it you?" You asked curiously.

"Do you have a problem with it, [Y/N]?" He asked with a slight darker tone.

"No, I don't but it will be interesting with you as a friend." You genuinely smiled.

~~~

You had made that deal over a year ago, you and Lucifer were actual friends and you both enjoyed each other's company. He had helped you through a bunch of things, you loved him, but he didn't know that, maybe he did, but you also knew about his powers, but they didn't work on you.

But he had helped you through a breakup and a few dates, they had all ended badly. The breakup consisted of the guy calling you a fat cow, that really brought down your self-esteem and you had more image issues than before. Lucifer had comforted you and ended up getting Maize to beat him to a pulp. And with the other dates, they were mainly to forget about your childish crush on Lucifer. You had a few dates with women, who were all over you, not in a bad way, they wanted to give you everything, that was same with a few men. But in the end they were either too controlling or cared too much which was sweet, but you couldn't handle them asking where you were 24/7.

But all good things always have to come to an end, you and Lucifer had been walking to the station and were about 20 metres away with your arm hooked with Lucifer's laughing at something stupidly innocent he did.

Your immediate reaction to the screeching behind you and Lucifer was to get him away, completely forgetting about the whole devil thing. But he had a hold on you but was a bit too late to move your body out of the way. The car made impact with the both of you and both of you were shot a few feet away. Within those few seconds, Lucifer had let go of your arm and you were about five feet away from him, lying on the ground struggling to breathe.

You had heard frantic shuffling behind you and then an arm going around your back, Lucifer pulled you into his lap. "No." He said breathlessly. "No!" He shouted. "Not yet, no, you can't die yet [Y/N] I won't let you die." He said frantically. Everything else had drowned out for him, the other people swarming the both of you, the shouts, quickly police officers had rushed out and looked around and saw the gathering of people. They rushed over and pushed through and saw Lucifer cradling your dying body.

Chloe had pushed her way through the other officers and saw what they had seen only moments ago. She had considered you a decent enough person to be around, she even was considering you a friend and trusted you with picking up and dropping off Trixie when she couldn't, and Trixie had also taken a liking to you and somehow knew when you were upset and somehow she had always gotten you to spill, which it was mainly your shape. She had always seemed to also know how to cheer you up.

But now, it hit Chloe that you wouldn't be there to distract and take care of Trixie when she couldn't. How you wouldn't be bringing coffee in the morning for everyone. And besides Chloe, everyone, as in the police force, had come to the realization that they are losing a family member, you had wiggled your way into each and everyone's hearts somehow, and if you didn't they still cared about you.

You let out a small quiet groan as you went to touch your side when an extreme shock of pain travelled through your arm. You looked around seeing people around you and you felt someones hands around your shoulders. You already knew whose hands those were, you could pick them out blindfolded. You looked at Lucifer went to say something but a cough and a wheeze reached your throat. He looked extremely upset. "No, you're not leaving just yet, you can't be. I was just starting to get used to you, you weird little human." He said desperately.

"I-I'll be seeing you soon." You tried to chuckle but it came out as a strained cough. "Just k-know I love you, you english giraffe." You said with a struggled to finish your sentence, "S-See you in a few, I-I'll be with Maze." You said, your voice trailing off and soon your life filled eyes became dormant.

Lucifer had been getting angry quickly but not before gently putting you down. Chloe grabbed his arm and pulled him away and left him a few feet away, Chloe walked back over to your lifeless body and closed your eyes and walked back to where she left Lucifer and he was gone.

~~~

You had been sitting with Maze when Lucifer had come through the door and immediately came over and pulled you up and before he could, you quickly wrapped your arms around him. "Thank you for being my friend for the past year and a half." You said with a smile.

"Like I said, you're not going anywhere yet." He told you. "Maize, the announcement, make it now and execute everyone who won't cooperate." Lucifer told Maze.

"You're lucky your the devil." Maze said with a scoff as she walked away.

"What announcement?" You ask.

"Well now your my number one, and you can come back to L.A. with me, and besides being immortal with me, you have the command of every demon." He said as he put his hands on your shoulders and kissed your forehead.

Maze came back within a few minutes and crossed her arms at the both of you. "I made the announcement, killed a few.. hundred." She said.

"Wait so is it true?" You asked. "Do you guys have t-to follow my orders?" You added curiously.

Maze looked at Lucifer and at you with a I despise you look. "Yes." She grumbled.

"C-Can you get me a doughnut?" You asked nervously.

"Really, Lucifer? This is who you chose?" Maze scoffed. Lucifer chuckled and Maze grumbled and walked out and returned within a few minutes with [Favourite Doughnut].

"Thank you, Maze." You said with a smile as she handed you the doughnut.

"You'll get used to it Maze." Lucifer said with a smile.

~~~

You had been with Lucifer for years afterwards. You two had gotten together at one point and you also had decided to help Lucifer and Chloe to solve the murders and other investigations. You were happy with Lucifer, and everly thankful that you had made a choice back then to make the deal. Because now with the command of the demons, who had become cold over millions of years of torture. They answered to you, which was weird at first but over the few years you got used to it and even convinced a few to leave Hell and you got them keeping an eye on Chloe and Trixie to keep them safe, of course they knew that the demons wouldn't hurt them, but they were shocked at first, besides the Deckers that were shocked the Demons were too.

But that didn't last long, the demons quickly became acquainted with Trixie and she quickly softened them up. Everything was great, but a new problem had arisen, and that was Lucifer's mother. She immediately knew you were who Lucifer had chosen. She wasn't happy. But as that problem had arisen, it was solved within months, with the blade and cutting through time and sending her through. Everything was semi-normal again, and it was hard to believe but within all the years you had known Lucifer, you had never had any arguments, the only ones you had were years ago and those were about your image issues.

To add onto all your old problems, you weren't as self-conscious anymore, Lucifer had always helped you through it, and all that darkness you had welled up within yourself, was gone. And your attitude, sheesh, it had become more tough, but you still cared and had morals, but you were no longer shy, and Lucifer had liked the new you, but as well as the old you too. Everything wasn't always perfect, there was a few rough patches but you and Lucifer never split, and you never stopped loving him and he never stopped loving you.
