Because Dark had no idea what to write she decided that he slept peacefullyAt some point in the dream, the boys that had beaten him up wandered into his dreams. Phoenix and Lucifer had been in an intense f---ing session when they kicked down the door and started to take pictures. Word spread through the school like wild fire, and Lucifer and Phoenix were deprecated. That alone made Lucifer wake up, terror in his eyes. Phoenix was the only family left. He was the only light in the darkness. Through all of the sweat and semi-tears, he stared at his brother, the happy part of the dream coming back to him. -
The older stirred and squinted down at him, rubbing sleep from his eyes and pulling him closer to his chest. "What's wrong, Luci...?" He croaked and wiped Lucifer's eyes, leaning over to kiss his sweaty forehead then reached up to place a hand there, feeling for abnormal temperature. "You're burning up, too.."
-
"I-I had a nightmare, that's all. I think I'll be fine.." Lucifer turned his head to sneeze. "I might be getting a small random cold. It happens, Pheonix, don't worry about me.." He had purple rings under his eyes that seemed to be from lack of sleep. He sighed, closing his eyes. "I-I'll be-" He was cut off by a series of coughing.
-
"A nightmare, huh." Phoenix gently pat his back as he coughed, worrying about his health. "I'll get you some medicine. Stay right here." He sat up, stretching his arms and torso, feeling Lucifer's forehead again. "I'll get you an icepack to help you cool down, too."
-
"Yeah.." Lucifer sighed as he felt the bed dip from the weight loss. He cuddles the penguin, staring at him. "Thank you, big brother. You're so nice to me and I wish I could repay you with something more than chores and food." Something more like sex. But he didn't want to say that out loud- he was too shy and afraid that he's be rejected.
-
"It's the least I can do when you take such good care of this house. You're a very good boy." Phoenix smiled at him as he went to get what his baby brother needed. He returned minutes later with medicine and the icepack. He placed the cold bag on Lucifer's forehead and gave him an option between syrup and pills.
-
Lucifer took the syrup, yawning as he sat up a bit to open it. "Have you ever.. Liked someone before? Like a crush?" He looked into his brother's eyes, a curious look in his eyes. Maybe, just maybe, he'd have a slight chance to ask him out.
-
"Have I ever had a crush on someone? Why of course I have. I believe everyone does at some point or another." He wasn't sure why Lucifer was asking something like that, but the knot returned to his stomach. He didn't want to give his brother to someone else. He breathed deeply and sipped from a fresh glass of water.
-
"How many?" He gulped down the medication, laying back down. His grip on the stuffed penguin tightened. "And what gender?" He had to know- if his brother only liked girls, it would be pointless. A waste of time. He sure as hell wasn't a girl.
-
"Only a few. And I've liked someone of each gender before. I've like a girl when I was younger, and a boy when I got older. Why so curious, little brother?" He asked, stroking his fingers through the younger's hair.
-
"Just a question." Lucifer realized he was starting to chicken out again. Furious with himself, he thought about what he wanted to say. It sounded badass in his head. Instead, Lucifer said, "I-I'm only making sure.. Because.. Because.. I.. I like a guy and I wanna make sure that I'm not the only one who likes both genders." On the inside, he was beating himself up for not saying what he meant.
-
"You're not the only one, Luci. Even if I didn't like both, I'd still love you all the same. But you're definitely not alone on that. Anyway, are you asking because you really want to ask me for advice?" Phoenix tilted his head curiously, placing his hand on Lucifer's shoulder.
-
"..No, I really want to ask you out." Lucifer covered his face with his hands, hiding the blush that took over his face. Through his hands, he said, "I know it's wrong and I know I shouldn't ask, but.. I want you to be my boyfriend. Or the other way around, I want to be yours. Take your pick.."
-
His eyes widened at what he heard and was about to ask if it was really what came out of his brother's mouth. But Lucifer confirmed it before he could ask. And Phoenix smiled warmly, color coming over his own cheeks. "Yes. I don't care if it isn't right in society, I want to be with you, too, Luci. We can be boyfriends." The older grabbed his brother's hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.
-
Lucifer smiled, some color flushing into his cheeks. "I'm glad.. I don't want to be anyone else's, I wanna be only yours." He squeezed Phoenix's hand back in return, closing his eyes. "Are you still going to sleep with me, or are you going to play it safe and not get sick?"
