Once Chloe and Trixie were packed with a few essentials, Lucifer drove them to Lux in Chloe's car. On their way there Chloe sat in the back of the car with Trixie as Chloe laid down some ground rules as her daughter huddled in to her side. Trixie understood that she needed to keep the angels a secret, just as she kept Lucifer's secret and adults never believed kids anyway.

Lucifer got them settled in Maze's old rooms. Lucifer assured Chloe of his penthouses safety and security as he took them through the back entrance as Chloe didn't want Trixie to see the club in full swing.

It was late once they were settled. Chloe read to Trixie for a while before the little girl fell asleep in Maze's old bed; which was big enough for them both. It didn't take too long to fall asleep afterwards from exhaustion from the evenings events.

A couple for hours later when Lucifer had settled down at his piano after checking in with Maze, as well as making a few phone calls to ensure Chloe and Trixie's safety while they stayed there with him and to deliver some food, he was low and now he was providing for two others.

As Lucifer got up to refresh his drink he heard the pitter patter of small bare feet coming towards him. He turned around to see a pyjama clad Trixie, clutching a stuffed bear and wiping away falling tears.

"Beatrice, what's wrong?" He asked, putting his glass down and stepping towards her.

"I can't sleep, I keep seeing the angels that hurt Mommy and me." She sniffled.

"Well then, I think your mother once mentioned something about hot chocolate when you've not been able to sleep before." He said with a small smile, he remembered a tired Chloe coming in to the precinct and telling him all about how Trixie couldn't sleep until and she'd given her hot chocolate.

Lucifer led her in to his kitchen and pulled out a bar stool for her to sit on, once she was seated she placed her bear on the stool beside her. As she looked around at the shiny kitchen from her seat, Lucifer ferreted around in the cupboards for ingredients for hot chocolate. He used a drinking chocolate mix that used fine chocolate shavings instead of powder to make for a richer drink.

As the milk heated up he found two mugs that sat mostly unused in his cupboard and set them on the counter next to the stove.

"What kind of chocolate are you using?"

"Lindt, they're a Swiss chocolatiers, they make very rich and creamy chocolates. Far better than American brands."

"Really?" She said innocently. "Do they only make drinking chocolate?" She asked, not so innocently. With a big toothy grin. Lucifer saw her facial expression and sighed outwardly. He moved to a high cupboard where he had a few still in a glass bowl. He took out two red wrapped chocolates and put them on the counter near Trixie.

"You may have one, I don't want you bouncing off the walls." At her slightly crestfallen expression he added, "But if you're lucky and well behaved little human, you might find a couple in your lunch box tomorrow." He said as he filled two mugs with hot chocolate and added some whipped cream. He gave them both spoons so they could eat the cream without making a mess.

"Now young lady, where would you like to drink this, here in the main living space or on the balcony?"

"The balcony please." She asked excitedly. "I bet the city looks really pretty from up here."

"Indeed it does. I have only one rule from the balcony and that is you do not climb up on the balcony railing, ok?" He said almost sternly, knowing that Chloe would have kittens if Trixie got hurt.

"Ok." She said as they walked from behind to bar. Lucifer paused and added a little Jamesons whiskey to his hot chocolate to take off the sweet edge. He then took the tray with their drinks on out to the small table on the balcony. Trixie followed him quietly and sat herself down on one of the chairs either side of the table.

Trixie unwrapped her little sphere shaped chocolate and popped it in her mouth. As she bit in to its velvety centre her little eyes lit up.

"That's amazing!" As she started on the cream of her hot chocolate, Lucifer stared up at the clear night sky, there weren't as many stars in the sky as he liked but that was the downside of living in a city.

They both settled in to a quiet conversation. Lucifer pointed out the constellations that he could make out in the night's sky. He didn't explain to her that he had created the stars and their constellations as he thought it might be a little too much for her to understand and he didn't want to delve in to that part of his past.

It didn't take long for Lucifer to notice when Trixie started to fall asleep, still clutching her warm mug of hot chocolate. Reaching over with one long arm he took the mug from her before it has the chance to tip over and spill over her pyjamas. He then put down the half full mug next to her chair before going back to his own.

Minutes later, Lucifer heard a shuffling sound coming from inside.

"Trixie? Lucifer?" Came Chloe's quiet disembodied voice. Lucifer turned around to see a sleepy looking detective approaching the couch. As soon as Lucifer saw her, he pressed a finger to his lips to tell her to remain quite as he pointed to the chair next to him and the bundle of sleeping Trixie. Chloe crept quietly closer.

"Is she alright?" She whispered, Lucifer stood and offered Chloe his seat.

"She's fine Detective, she simply couldn't sleep, so I made us both a hot chocolate, we came out here, had a little chat but she quickly fell asleep. It was quite lovely actually." He said, smiling softly. He was used to the overly hyper and chatty side of Trixie and he was relieved to see that she had a calmer side, even as Lucifer figured that she was still a little shaken from the attack on herself and her mother. He didn't quite know how to talk to her about it but it was sure what he'd done with the warm beverage and his company had been a little balm for her young nerves.

"Thank you, Lucifer. I know that kids aren't your forte but what you've done tonight is beyond amazing; for the both of us." She said with a bright smile, Lucifer couldn't help but smile back as he felt as warm rush flow through him like he'd started to feel more often when he was around Chloe.

"You're quite welcome Detective. I imagined you'd disapprove if I poured her two fingers of scotch to help her sleep." He said with his trademark devilish smile, Chloe couldn't help but roll her eyes. Chloe leaned back in her chair and picked up Lucifer's mostly full mug of hot chocolate.

"Are you gonna finish this?" She asked, bringing it to her nose and giving it a quick sniff. She smelt the familiar scent of whiskey in the sweetness of the chocolate.

"Go ahead, Detective. I don't usually make such a large drink of hot chocolate. I have added a dash of scotch to it though." Chloe took a cursory sip, the sweetness of the chocolate worked well with the sharp taste of the whiskey.

"That's not half bad." She said appreciatively as she continued to drink it. She huddled closer to the soft cushions as a cool breeze blew across the balcony. "I think I should take Trixie back inside, I don't want her getting cold." Lucifer nodded and picked up both mugs as Chloe moved to gently pick up her daughter.

As they got inside Trixie stirred and woke up.

"Mommy, can Lucifer stay with us tonight?" She said sleepily as she opened her eyes a little bit and looked blearily up at Lucifer and her mother.

"No monkey I'm sorry. There's no room for Lucifer. You'll get to see him in the morning."

"Ah well Detective, I could sit with you both until you fall asleep." He offered when he saw Trixie's face drop and he half panicked when he thought she might start to cry. Lucifer followed them to Chloe's room.

As Chloe put Trixie in the bed, Lucifer toed off his shoes. Chloe settled in beside her daughter and cuddle her in her arms as Lucifer figured out what how he was going to go about sitting on or in the bed with Chloe. Chloe moved over enough to let him sit on the bed without it being awkward.

"Get some sleep Detective, I'll be close by if you need anything." He said gently as Chloe drifted off, curled up against her daughter with her back against Lucifer's leg.

The next morning Lucifer woke to find himself still in the guest bedroom with Chloe and Trixie. Sometime during the night Lucifer had slipped down in to the bed and curled up against Chloe's back.

As he woke up a little more he realised that his arm was around Chloe's waist and he seemed to have been holding her snugly against his chest. He lifted his head to see Trixie snuggled against Chloe's shoulder.

In the hope of not waking her, Lucifer slowly slipped his arm away from Chloe as he lifted off the bed and silently slipped from the room; leaving his shoes behind to retrieve later.

Once he had changed out of his crumpled shirt in to a fresh suit he set about fixing breakfast for his guests. He made them all omelettes with a little added bacon and onion.

Chloe and Trixie came in to the kitchen just as Lucifer finished serving up breakfast.

"Ah, Detective, did you sleep well?"

"Yes, thank you. Did you fall asleep too?" She questioned with a hint of a smile.

"I did yes." He admitted as he placed two plates down on the table in front of Chloe and Trixie. "I hope you don't mind. I must have just dozed off."

"It's fine Lucifer." Before Chloe could say much more Maze came in carrying Trixie's school bag and unceremoniously on the table.

"I hope I didn't need to make the small human lunch?" Maze asked Chloe as she plonked herself down next to Trixie and ruffled her slightly mess bed hair fondly. "You're other bags are in your room."

"No Maze. Thanks for bringing some extra things. Hopefully we won't be here for very long."

"Detective, you'll be staying here until those feathered idiots are properly dealt with and I know for certain that you are Beatrice are safe from any further threat." Lucifer stated half sternly as he sipped his espresso.

"Lucifer, that's very sweet but we don't want to get in your way."

"You are nowhere near getting in my way. Maze's old living space is big enough for you both to live completely separately from the penthouse, there's a small living room and a kitchenette that you are free to use." He insisted. Not wanting to argue Chloe nodded and helped Lucifer clear up breakfast.

Chloe took Trixie back to their room to get ready for school. Lucifer snuck a couple of his Lindt truffles in to Trixie's lunch box as Chloe assembled the rest.

Maze and Trixie played around in Lucifer's living room. Trixie told Maze about her waking up in the middle of the night and Lucifer making her hot chocolate and then staying in their room. At this information Maze burst out laughing as she imagined Lucifer, Chloe and Trixie in her old bed all together. It wasn't a small bed but it might have been considered cosy for the tall Devil, a bed hog Detective and a nine-year-old octopus.

Once Chloe had driven Trixie to school with Maze close behind in her own car, Chloe and Lucifer headed to the precinct but not before Trixie attached herself to both Chloe and Lucifer when saying goodbye at her school.

Chloe was a little nervous about leaving Trixie at school but Maze assured her that she wouldn't leave the school or let Trixie out of her sight and she didn't need to worry about anyone making a complaint about her being there as she could come and go places without being noticed.

Much to Lucifer's dismay there were no large cases, Chloe mainly stayed in the precinct and questioned suspects. As he got bored Chloe gave him some old case files to go over and give his input on. He scribbled down clues and potential leads on post it notes and stuck them to various pages in the files before giving them to Dan to bring in new leads and suspects as Chloe was still very busy in the precinct.

They planned the next few days ahead over lunch. They agreed that Chloe would get some groceries for the kitchenette in Maze's old living space. Lucifer also promised not to bring anyone up to the penthouse, because he knew that it would be inappropriate for Trixie to be near strangers and it would be the world's biggest buzz kill and also Adriel and Gadreel could employ humans to come in and harm himself, Chloe or the child.

Lucifer was thrilled at the thought of Chloe living in the same space as him for a while; despite the hit to his sex life. He was a little less excited about Trixie living with them, but it was something that he could learn to live with seeing as Trixie was relatively well behaved.

Chloe had explained to a not too impressed Dan that they would be staying at Lux for a while after the apartment had flooded (with a little assistance from Maze) and that living at Lux was both convenient for Trixie and Chloe as it was both easy distance to both the precinct and the school; something that Dan's small apartment was not. Lucifer pulled out his charming megawatt grin to assure him that Trixie would not see the inside of Lux while it was in full swing. Dan very reluctantly accepted.

Lucifer decided to keep his newly returned wings thing to himself and not tell Amenadiel and his mother as they would both try and exploit him in to returning to Heaven. He didn't know how long he could keep the news of Gadreel and Adriel's appearance a secret; he knew that his mother might try and take them on to her side or try and use them to get her back in to heaven as they were not fallen; just yet. He hoped that dear old Dad would change that soon to at least give him a chance a beating them; or making it harder for them to get away.

For the remainder of the day Lucifer stayed close to Chloe as she tracked down a couple more suspects. He had rather enjoyed engaging the Detective in conversation over some of the old cases as he bounced ideas off her when she wasn't concentrating on her tasks.
