Chereads / The Devil is a Handsome Man / Chapter 13 - The Day Before

Chapter 13 - The Day Before

Tomorrow is my wedding and my mother is freaking out . My father looks quite sad , and it hurts my heart to see him like this .

As today was my last day with them , we decided to spend the whole day together . All three of us took a leave from our work and we decided to watch a movie first . My mother had checked whether or not everything was upto the mark yesterday instead of checking everything today on my advice as I did not want her to worry and I really wanted to spend time with them . But she was still freaking out because she thought that something will go wrong tomorrow .

We decided to watch the movie ' You've g*t mail ' which all three of us love . And trust me , I am not exaggerating when I say that we have seen this movie almost a 100 times now . This is a very old movie , it was released when I was just a little child . I seriously love this movie a bit too much .

By the time the movie was finished , it was already time for lunch , so we decided to make lunch together . My father washed and cut the vegetables while my mother cooked them and I made a tiramisu for dessert .

We had our lunch while talking about our favourite memories of each other . After lunch , we decided to play some board games and of course , as the amazing person that I am , I won 7 out of the 10 games that we played .

Afterwards we made a pillow fort like we did when I was younger . When I first suggested this idea , they declined because they felt that they were too old for this stuff but seeing the enthusiastic expression on my face , they agreed . It was a lot of fun and in between we even got engaged in a little pillow fight . Then we laid inside the fort and reminisced about my childhood .

My father even took out some photo albums from the shelf and we all started looking at them . Even though they were pictures , it felt as if they were movies . No matter which image I looked at , I could feel that very scene when the image was taken , replaying in my head . Just like this we spent the whole day , in a relaxed carefree manner , without any worries of the world .

~~~~~~~~~~~~

At about 3:00 am , I was suddenly awoken by the howling of some stray dogs . After all the fun stuff we had done , we ended our day by taking a walk outside after dinner and stargazing .

At around 12:00 am , we came to our rooms and slept .

When I saw that it was only 3:00 am , I decided to sleep again , but then I remembered the night a week before , when I was very depressed and when I woke up the next day on the cold floor , I found out that I had gone to sleep while crying . My whole body felt numb and it took me some time before I could get up . I didn't cry after that day . I guess letting out all your emotions really helps .

Ginger and Sky are currently sleeping in the same room as me . I felt sad knowing that I would have to leave them at my parents house for some time before I could pick them up and bring them to my future husband's house . I would have definitely taken them alongside me , if not for my mother who told me that those were bad manners .

' I am really curious about your identity Mr. fiance , let's just hope that we will like each other . ' I thought and then drifted off to sleep .

Lucifer's POV

I just finished my work and was about to head home when I received my best friends call .

Unknown friend : Hey man , where are you ?

Lucifer : I was about to go home , why ?

Unknown friend : Are you serious Lucifer ?! Today is the last day when you remain as a bachelor . Quickly come to Blue Ivy , me and that other idiot are waiting for you .

Lucifer : Fine , wait for me .

Then , I hung up . I sent my chauffeur home as I wanted to drive by myself . I sat in my car and headed towards the Blue Ivy club .

At the club , I entered the room which is always reserved for us and saw my two friends waiting for me .

" Oh , so the groom is finally here . " one of them said .

" So Mr. Groom are you nervous about your wedding ? Are you feeling anxious ? Are you excited to meet your soulmate ? " The other asked in a teasing voice .

" You both are acting as if you don't know the way I am getting married . " I scoffed at their behaviour and said .

" No matter how you are getting married , the fact is that YOU are getting married . "

" Is it such a weird thing that I am the one getting married . "

" Yes " they both said in unison while nodding .

" I thought you will remain single forever . " one of them said .

" I started to think that maybe you are gay and you had a crush on one of us , just thinking about it sends shivers down my spine . " the other said .

Listening to both of them , I felt my temper rise but then , an idea came to me and my lips curved into a devilish smile .

" Oh shit ! why are you smiling like that ? Nothing good ever comes out when you smile like that . " he said and both of them shuddered .

" What are you thinking of Lucifer ? " my friend asked .

" Nothing . " I said , the devilish smile still stuck on my face .

Afterwards , we left that topic and started catching up with each other . While both of my friends were talking about some useless topics and also teasing me once in a while , I had already planned in my mind how I am going to pay them back .

' Oh , How wonderful it would be to see your faces . ' I thought .

We ended up talking till 1:00 am but none of us drank too much as we did not want to have a hangover , especially tomorrow .

I drove back to my house and slept soundly without any worries . I was not anxious about tomorrow, just a bit curious about my bride's identity .

' Let's just hope that she isn't someone who I will come to detest . ' I thought .
