I sat in the garden Lucifer created. I thought it was ridiculous making a garden in a world of death but it's starting to grow on me. It's a nice place to de-stress after a long day.

"I thought I'd find you out here" I turned around to see Lucifer's smiling face. I noticed his eyes were red and puffy. Interesting.

"Lucifer dear, how was your trip" I smiled at him.

"Oh it was fine" he looked away nervously. I narrowed my eyes. He's hiding something. I probably shouldn't pry though. He's allowed to have his secrets.

"So you like my garden" he gave me a smug grin. I rolled my eyes fondly.

"Alright you were right. It is a charming little garden"

"Isn't it?" He sat opposite me, picking some flowers "it's like I brought a piece of the surface down here. Would you ever consider going back to the surface?" He looked at me expectingly.

"No it's too bright for me" I shrugged "what are you doing?" I stared at him weaving the flowers together in confusion.

"Making a flower crown" he held his finished product with a proud smile "here" he placed the flower crown on my head with a cute smile "it looks so good on you"

"Thank you my dear" I touched his hand, rubbing my thumb along his knuckles.

His eyes were clouded with worry "Al?"

"Yes dear?" I asked him.

His eyes darted around nervously "I-I-I have to go!" He bolted off before I could stop him. That was odd. What exactly was he going to tell me?
