This story follows the short fic Guardian Angel and will be another short story series of mine called the Guardians series. This one is about the adventures and getting together of the only duo of angels sharing a human charge there is. So, have some Lu, Rae Rae and Ella fun. This one is Ella finding out about Lucifer and Azrael being angels and sharing her as a charge. It also sort of crosses over into my Raphael series.
Getting To Know Lu
Getting in Touch
Something was different about Lucifer.
Ella had noticed it the moment he had come in to listen to her chat on about the work in which she was doing that moment. Well, technically, it hadn't been her work, so much as something she was looking up for fun, but it coincided with a case she was working on, so in a way she wasn't lying.
Lucifer had stayed with her until she was ready to go home. The night had well and truly been by then, even though he had come to keep her company after 5 that afternoon. He had been attentive, listened to everything she said and seemed to enjoy the company.
The only thing she could think of was that he was finally deciding he had enough time being alone and was willing to finally try and become better friends with her. And what he was doing was so working for her, because she had never had someone be so attentive and genuinely willing to listen to her babble on about blood and wood and forensics.
But even that felt off, because she had done noting to make him act like this towards her, nor did she give any hint that she actually liked company and to chat while she worked after hours. Yet she had the idea that somehow he knew.
It wasn't until the next day that she recalled seeing his face when she told him the name of her friend had been Ray Ray and was instantly awake from her half asleep state.
It had almost been like he knew the ghost. Or at least, knew who she was while she was alive.
And then the dumbest idea she had ever had popped into her head and she couldn't resist trying to give it a go.
Ray Ray had said that she was going to probably be moving on once she got Ella staying in L.A. But she had said that before to her in her childhood and the ghost always tended to come back on the odd rare occurrence, like yesterday.
She wanted to get Ray Ray and Lucifer in the same room together and see what happens.
She just needed to figure out how exactly to get that to happen. But first, she wanted to just check if Lucifer did actually know her. That one was easy enough. She got out her phone, saw Lucifer was online and left him a text.
Ella – Hey! You know Ray Ray?
Lucifer – Actually, it's spelt Rae Rae and yes.
Ella – How!?
Lucifer – She's my little sister.
Ella – Oh! I'm sorry...
Lucifer – Don't be. She's a lying liar who lies.
Ella - ?
Lucifer – She's one of MY sister's Ms Lopez.
Ella - ?
Lucifer – I had a chat with her yesterday, since she deigned me finally fit to have a discussion with.
Ella - !?
Lucifer – She's not a ghost. She just made herself visible to you.
Ella - ...Wow. That is so unfair.
Lucifer - Yes, I agree.
Ella – No, I mean why would you say that to me?!
Lucifer – Because it's the truth.
Lucifer – I don't lie.
Ella – Why would she do that?
Lucifer – She was afraid of your reaction if you knew the truth.
Ella – What is the truth?!
Lucifer – I think that's something you should talk to her about.
Lucifer – Seriously, she can get scary when annoyed or angry.
And that was it, that was her in. Lucifer was telling her she was still around town. And if she truly wasn't a ghost, just invisible, and Lucifer can see her too...then maybe this would work to let her know if she truly was crazy, or if Lucifer was delusional.
Ella – You know what? That's a good idea.
Ella – But I haven't exactly ever called her to me before.
Ella – She just kind of shows up.
Lucifer – Call out to her.
Ella – I've tried that when I was a kid.
Lucifer – Yes, well, she is really busy all the time.
Lucifer – Call out and tell her to take a break with you.
Lucifer - With any luck, she'll show.
Ella – I never thought of her as having a job before.
Ella – Mainly because I thought she was dead.
Lucifer – Well, she does work with the dead, so close enough.
Huh, if Rae Rae (she had to change how she thought that name now) actually did work with dead people, maybe that's why she could get away with being a ghost. It still gave her no clue as to why she would be able to get in contact with Lucifer, because she was very invisible to everyone else.
She really needed to know, with the three of them in the same room, if Lucifer could see her when her invisibility power was on.
Ella – Huh, makes sense as to why she could pass off as being a ghost I guess.
Ella – Well, got to get ready for work now.
Ella – See you at the precinct?
Lucifer – Sure! I just got up myself
With that, Ella stopped messaging her weird friend and set out to get ready for the day, plan already in her head.
Lucifer thought himself the devil, so maybe if she prayed, she would show up.
Well, it was worth a try.
If anything, at least she would be getting answers to some questions she had. But not all of them. Nothing in faith or belief left room for all the answers.
She'd stick her questions only to those two and their lives. They are who mattered to her after all.
