Chapter 23
Song: Cheat Codes & Nicky Romero - Sober
"Lucifer, stop before you regret this," Axel ordered him. Lucifer let out a chuckle, "I will regret nothing. She's nothing by a trader, not a wife or even a girlfriend. ."
I quickly froze the room over causing Lucifer's flames to die down but he pushed himself to a limit to where his fire was a wild flame. He then threw the fireball. Holding up a force field, I braced myself for impact. A figure jumped in front me and grabbed my hand. Within a blink I was now in a different room.
I looked around to see it was a living room. I looked at the person in front me to see it was Sean who had a look of pain on his face. He released my hand and disappeared. I heard something slam upstairs and I knew it was him. Thinking for a second, I debated whether or not I should go upstairs. Letting out a sigh, I walked around the house looking for a stairs.
Finally finding one, I walked up the stairs and trailed down the hall to the room that Sean was in. Walking into the room, I saw the bathroom light was on. Walking into the bathroom, I saw Sean with his shirt off. His back was against me so I could see he had taken the fireball for me. The fireball had almost 3rd degree burns.
I watched as he turned the shower on and stripped down to his boxers.
"Wait," I mumbled as I held his hand. He turned back to look at me surprised as if he had expected me to be gone by now. "Lean over the sink," I ordered.
He slowly did as told and I stared at his back. I quickly washed my hand and kept it wet. I grabbed the alcohol rub bottle from the counter and opened it. "This is going to hurt a lot," I informed him.
I could hear his heavy breathing as if he was preparing himself. "Do it," he muffled out.
I took a cloth and soaked it with the alcohol rub before putting it on the burn. He let out a painful groan and I couldn't help but frown. He took a fireball for me. As I finished cleaning his wound, I gently touched his back and focused causing the wound to cool over. He let out a sigh of relief before turning around to look at me.
"Thanks," he mumbled. I nodded my head before going to walk out the bathroom but his hand pulled me back. "Where are you going?" he asked in a concerned voice.
I shrugged my shoulders. "Don't know. Maybe go to one of my safe house," I informed him. He shook his head, "You're welcome to stay here with me. It's kind of a hiding spot and no one would find you here," he spoke.
I stared at him waiting for him to laugh or smirk but he didn't. "Why did you save me?" I asked.
His hand released mine and before rubbing the back of his head. "Because it was the right thing to do. You should shower. You dress is soaking wet still from who knows what and no offence but you're starting to smell like a wet dog. I'll get you some clothes by your house. Don't even ask how," he commented as he grabbed a towel from the shelf before throwing it at me. I caught the towel and watched as he left the bathroom before closing the door behind him.
I stripped from my wet damp clothes and hopped in the shower. After finishing shower, I wrapped myself in the towel and walked out the bathroom to see dry clean clothes for myself was on his bed. I hopped into the dry clothes which was some shorts, and a muscle shirt with a sports bra under. I dried my hair and dropped the towel and damp clothes in the laundry basket before heading downstairs. I walked into the kitchen to see Sean still shirtless but was in some shorts. He had currently ordered Chinese food.
"Sit," he gestured to the seat by the counter. I took a seat and he bought over my food and drink. I thanked him before chowing down my food. We ate in silence and after finishing eat, I helped clean up. Sean disappeared out of the room and I couldn't help but have so many questions.
"Gabe?" I called out hoping he would come to my request. "Gabe! Gabe! Gabe! Gabe!" I started to constantly called his name. This went on for about 10 minutes straight as I was sitting in the kitchen.
"My goodness you're annoying," I heard his voice behind me. I turned about to see him standing in a white t-shirt and jeans. I rolled my eyes, "Well, you didn't answer the first time. I have questions," I sighed.
He let out a huff, "I already told you I'll -"
"Yeah, I know but it wouldn't kill you to answer a few," I cut him off before glaring at him. He studied me for a second before nodding, "Fine. I'll answer certain ones," he agreed.
"Okay. Did you know you were going to be an angel?" I asked.
He thought about it for a second before shaking his head, "Pass."
"But -"
"Pass or I leave."
I let out a groan, "Fine. Did you know Sean knew you would come back?"
"Yes. He told me before he killed me," he informed me.
Confusion took over me as I recalled I never saw Sean and him talking. I just remember Sean smirking before he killed Gabe. "I don't have all day," he groaned.
"You're immortal now so yes, you have all day. Did you speak to Sean after you died?" I asked.
He studied me for a second before nodding. "Yes and we talked things over in the room you trapped him in. We're cool."
"When are you going to tell the guys about all this?" I asked.
He shrugged, "Soon just waiting for the right time. I have to go now," he spoke. I let out a sigh before nodding. Gabe then looked around the room before looking back to me.
"Why are you in Sean's house?" he asked. "How did you -"
"Because I been here before now answer the question," he spoke in a stern tone.
"Lucifer found out the trap room and went to kill Sean so I jumped in to protect him. There was this huge fight and Sean ended up taking a fireball for me from Lucifer," I gave brief details. I watched as Gabe tensed up, "Lucifer harmed you?"
I shook my head. I opened my mouth to say something but he cut me off. "I will deal with him later but I really have to go now. Don't be so hard on Sean. He knew what he was doing," he spoke before disappearing. I felt lost as Gabe was siding with Sean despite he had been killed by him.
Focusing my powers, I flashed back to my house in the lobby only to be thrown across the room. I let out a groan as I hit the marble floor. Standing up, I looked to see the guys were in the lobby along with Lucifer and Axel. I honestly thought Lucifer would have left by now.
"You let him fucking escape!" Lucifer's voice boomed through the room as he came charging at me. I kept flashing around the room.
"Sky, how could you do that?" James spoke in a soft tone.
"I would explain but he wouldn't let me," I spoke referring to Lucifer.
James glared at Lucifer who was flashing around the room after me. "Let her explain," he barked at Lucifer.
Lucifer stopped flashing around the room and nodded, "Okay," he casually stated. I stopped flashing and looked at James.
I opened my mouth to say something but a hand wrapped around my neck before slamming me into the wall. I looked down at Lucifer who had me pinned high onto the wall. His eyes were pitch black and I could feel his hand heating up as my neck started to sting.
"Put her down!" James shouted as he ran over to me.
"No! She's simply another whore. Can't fucking trust anyone anymore," he growled in a sinister voice as my neck was being burned. I lashed onto his hand trying to freeze him but he was much stronger.
"Please stop. You're hurting me," I begged as tears were now escaping my eyes. He let out a chuckle, "I don't give a fuck. You should of thought about that when you lied to me," he hissed as his other hand was now on my leg burning me.
Axel was now trying to pry him off me but Lucifer didn't budge. I tried to use my powers or even flash but nothing was happening.
Soon Lucifer was ripped away from me and thrown across the room. I felt to the ground gasping for air. I looked up to see Sean standing in front of me still bare back. Some of the guys gasp and I watched as Lucifer stood up with his body enfamed.
"You've got to be fucking kidding me Lucifer!" Sean shouted in anger. "You can't just let her explain?" he asked.
Lucifer scoffed, "Let her explained how she's been fucking you?" he sarcastically answered.
Sean rolled his eyes, "Wow you're honestly stupid. You clearly don't deserve her and you didn't need to be so brutal on her," Sean spoke as he glimpsed behind him at me.
"She fucking lied to me and we're no longer together after this stunt she pulled. We're fucking over and I don't think you're in any position to talk," Lucifer spoke before throwing a fireball at Sean. I went to freeze it but Axel jumped in front and caused it to vanish in midair before it hit Sean.
"I don't know what going on between you two," Axel spoke at Sean and I, "But," he looked back to Lucifer, "Your behavior is despicable. Sean's right. You need to let her explain and she shouldn't be treated like this especially when you've done so much wrong when you and her were together yet she let you explained," Axel spoke sternly to Lucifer.
I watched as Lucifer was now annoyed that Axel was defending Sean and I. "She deserves nothing but pain and he deserves death," he hissed in response before flashing over to us. I quickly placed a force field around Sean and I before Lucifer could get a hold of us causing him to slam into the shield.
Sean walked around me and picked me up bridal style. He then looked over to Lucifer who was beyond mad and was currently trying to break through my force field.
"You should have listened to her," Sean softly spoke before we were now back at his house in his bathroom. He gently set me down on the bathroom counter and pulled out some medical supplies. He washed his hands and cleaned both burns as I sat there in agony.
"Why did you go back?" he asked in a soft tone as he tried to dry it.
"I just wanted to explain things to James and the guys. They deserve to know what's happening. I didn't know Lucifer would still be there," I admitted.
He stayed silent. "Thank you for saving me again," I thanked him. "Never a problem. I'm sorry it had to go down this way. I didn't intend on personally hurting you or having Lucifer end your relationship," he softly spoke hesitantly.
I stayed quiet. Lucifer was really harsh about this situation and even called me some hurtful things. Part of me should have known this was coming considering how hard it is for him to trust people but it still gives him no right to behave like this. He should have at least let me explained.
"Are you okay?" Sean asked looking at me with a worried look. I nodded my head and gave him a small smile, "Yes. Are you?"
He nodded his head, "Yes and sorry but that's all I could do. I suggest you cool it a bit for it to self heal a bit faster," he suggested. I thanked him and focused my powers causing my body to cool down.
"You know, that fight we had in the realm was pretty impressive but you didn't reach full capacity of your powers," Sean commented. My eyebrow rose, "Really? I thought that was max capacity," I admitted.
He shook his head. "I can easily help you if you want," he offered. I nodded my head with a smile, "That would be great."
"We could do it later if you want. I'm a bit drained right now," he tiredly spoke. I nodded my head, "Of course," I quickly replied. I went to get of the counter but he picked me back up bridal style and walked out the bathroom. He placed me on his bed before laying down on his stomach so his back was exposed. I gave him a blank look as I was laying on my back.
He let out a muffled chuckled as his head hit the pillow. "Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything," he reassured me as he closed his eyes.
Believing him, I closed my eyes falling asleep. I like this part of Sean. The part I remembered and loved.
