A/N: So I know I should be working on A Blast from the Past but this story would not leave me alone and demanded to be written.
This story is set somewhere after season 2 but before season 3.
I hope you like it and constructive criticism is always welcome.
Enjoy!
It was a calm afternoon at the precinct. Chloe and Dan were catching up on paper work, well Dan was catching up while Chloe tried to catch up, it was a little hard to concentrate when you have a partner that just won't sits still and keeps talking.
"Lucifer, stop juggling and help with the paper work or go home." Chloe groaned.
"But Detective, I'm very good at handling balls." Lucifer smirked.
Over the last couple of weeks Lucifer had done a lot of soul searching, Grace searching?, with the help of Dr. Linda. It took him some time to come to terms with that he was not in love with the Detective as he thought, but was just very fascinated with her. She was the first human to ever be unaffected by his powers and that drew him.
Him and the Detective had become very good friends in the last month and Lucifer didn't want to ruin the best friendship he's ever had by sleeping with her, which was a first for him.
On Chloe's part, she had decided that dating was not a priority for her right now and if she fell in love, she fell in love, but she was not going to actively search for it. Lucifer was her best friend and sometimes he was like an annoying little brother, not that she was going to tell him that.
"Really Lucifer, that's the best you can come up with?" Dan sniggered. The friendship between Dan and Lucifer was a bit unconventional but it worked for them. Especially now that Dan had gotten over his fear of Lucifer 'stealing' Chloe and Trixie from him.
"Oh, Detective Douche, you wouldn't be able to handle my best." Lucifer laughed. Dan tried to glare at him but snorted and started to laugh to.
"What's so funny?" Ella asked coming up to them.
"Balls." Dan got out before he and Lucifer broke down again.
Ella turned to Chloe who just shook her head with a smile and explained what Lucifer and Dan had been talking about.
The four of them spent a couple of minutes just talking and laughing together until Ella stopped mid-sentence.
"Who is that?" She breathed out looking towards the stairs.
Coming towards them was a young woman in her mid-twenties with hair the color of freshly fallen snow up in a messy bun, miss-matched eyes and a smile.
"Reya!" Dan called out and stood up to meet her in a hug. "What are you doing here?"
"Can't I just come for a visit?" The woman asked with a laugh.
"Of course, you can." Dan said, letting her go. "I'm just surprised."
Chloe elbowed Dan out of the way so she to could hug the woman. As she stepped back Ella squealed "I love your outfit!" and stole a hug.
"Thank you." The woman smiled and looked down at her clothes. Black and pink sneakers, white skinny jeans, dark blue tank top and a black leather jacket.
"Guys, this is my little sister Reyanda." Dan introduced her. "Reya you of course already know Chloe. The one who stole a hug and complimented your clothes is Ella Lopez and next to her is Lucifer Morningstar."
"As in the Lightbringer?" Reya asked.
"Precisely, Darling." Lucifer flirted. "And I must thank you for that."
"Thank me? Why?" Reya looked puzzled.
"Most people just ask about The Devil part." Lucifer explained.
"Stop flirting with my sister!" Dan exclaimed mock serious.
"I didn't know you had a sister Dan." Ella distracted them from snapping at each other.
"I'm adopted, sort of." Reya shrugged.
"You are my sister in everything that matters." Dan side hugged her. "The only thing stopping you from being my sister in all ways is blood. But what does genetics know anyway."
"Anyway, I was going to ask if you, Chloe and Trixie wanted to have dinner with me?" Reya asked with a small blush. "Ella and Lucifer are invited too, my treat."
"I would love too!" Ella agreed with a big smile. "Where are we going and when?"
"I was thinking of going to Socalo and I was thinking we could go right now if that works for everyone?" Reya looked a bit hesitant.
"I love their burritos! Let me just get my stuff." Ella rushed of towards her lab.
"We need to pick up Trixie before we can eat." Chloe smiled at Reya.
"Oh right, I forgot about that part." Reya admitted with an embarrassed shrug.
"How about you two take Ella and go pick up the spawn and I'll give Reyanda a ride to the restaurant?" Lucifer offered.
"I wouldn't want to be an inconvenience." Reya muttered.
"No inconvenience, darling." Lucifer reassured.
"That works for me." Reya told Dan and then she turned towards Lucifer. "If you're sure?"
"Absolutely." He smiled and offered his arm to her. She took it with a smile and they made their way to the parking lot. As they approached Lucifer's car Reya sort of froze.
"That's your car?" She asked nodding towards the convertible.
"Yes. You like it then?" Lucifer asked.
"Like it?! That's one of the most beautiful cars I've ever seen!" Reya guched.
"It's a Chevrolet Corvette C1 from 1962." Lucifer informed her proudly. "Do you like cars?"
"I love cars. I don't know a lot about them but I do really like cars." Reya explained as she got into the passage side.
"What's your favorite car then?" Lucifer started the car and started backing out.
"I have a few." Reya confessed and when Lucifer just nodded and smiled in encouragement, she told him. "Well I really like the 2012 Ford Mustang GT and who doesn't like Lamborghinis, but I think my all-time favorite car is a 1967 Ford Mustang."
"Yeah the 67 is a really nice car." Lucifer agreed. "I think I might actually own one."
"You don't know if you own one?" Reya asked perplexed. "How can you not know?"
"I own a lot of cars." Lucifer smirked. "You can come and check them out sometime if you want?"
"Yeah sound fun." Reya smiled at him as they pulled up to the restaurant.
As they waited for the others to get there they kept talking about cars and that led them in to the topic of bikes but before they could get to deep into it, Dan pulled up beside them.
"AUNT REYA!" A brown blur shot passed Lucifer with a scream.
"Heya Bambi!" Reyas whole face lit up with happiness as she spun around with Trixie in her arms.
"When did you get here? Where are you staying? How long will you be here?" Trixie was asking questions in quick succession.
"Calm down Monkey, give her time to answer." Chloe laughed.
"To answer your questions in order: I got here around an hour ago. I'm staying at a hotel down town. And as for how long I'm planning on staying, that all depends on if I can find an apartment or not."
"You're moving here?" Trixie asked with big eyes.
"Yes, if everything works out." Reya smiled.
"I can ask around if you want?" Ella offered.
"That would be very kind of you." Reya beamed. "Now, how about we go in and eat something? I'm starving."
As they sat and enjoyed their food the topics varied but everyone was happy. When Trixie almost started to fall asleep at the table, they decided that it was time to head home. Everyone said their goodbyes and Dan offered to give Ella a ride home which she gladly accepted.
Lucifer drove Reya to her hotel but he didn't really want the night to end so he asked her if she wanted to go for a walk with him. She happily agreed and Lucifer parked his car by the hotel and the started walking.
As they walked, they talked about how Lucifer started working for the LAPD as a civilian consultant and some of the cases he had worked on.
"So wait wait wait, you seriously just pushed him through his own painting and told him it made it look better." Reya laughed as they sat down on a bench in the park they had been walking in.
"Yes and it did make it look better." Lucifer smirked. "And then I showed him my real face."
"Real face?" Reya asked confused.
"My Devil face. And on that point, there is something I've wanted to ask you all evening."
"Ask away." Reya encouraged with a nod.
"What is it that you truly desire?" Lucifer asked looking her in the eye.
"I…I…" She started to say.
"Go on, you can tell me." Lucifer coaxed.
"I…just want someone to want me and love me for me, faults and all." Reya said dazed.
"Oh that's…" Before Lucifer could finish a dirty man walked up to them.
"Give me your purse and your money!" The man demanded while pointing a gun at them.
Reya quickly handed over her purse but when the man went to pull it from her hands it got stuck and the pull made her fall. Her skull cracked painfully against the pavement and her vision was blurry. She looked up intime to se the man point his gun at Lucifer and pull the trigger, then she must have blacked out for a few seconds because the next thing she knows Lucifer is leaning over her and trying to get her attention.
"There's a whole in your shirt." Reya slurred.
"Yeah and I really liked this shirt to." Lucifer groused.
"He shot you." It was getting harder to talk as darkness was creeping into her vision.
"Don't worry about that now." Lucifer stroked her cheek. "You just concentrate on staying awake." But Reya had already passed out.
