Skyler waited for another message to pop up on her phone screen but it didn't happen. When she saw that there wasn't any message she took her phone again to call Maya.
Meanwhile at the company, Lucifer was staring at his phone waiting for Skyler to text him back or call him as he was less busy, but he waited in vain and Jared could only stare at him using his knuckles to support his chin as he sat with his legs crossed.
Feeling Jared's gaze on him, Lucifer looked up from his phone to meet Jared's green eyes.
" What " he said with a deep frown etched on his face
" Oh please, don't put your anger on me " Jared sat up waving his hand with a grin on his face.
" Then take your eyes off me or you busy yourself with something else " Lucifer said.
" I'm just worried about you " Jared said.
" Since when do you worry about me " Lucifer said.
" Since you met her, you've been acting differently lately "
" What do mean " Lucifer asked his gaze still not leaving his phone screen.
" I mean you get easily provoked, you're always frowning, you've fired half of your workers " Jared said and Lucifer didn't say anything and kept on staring at his phone.
" Just don't force her to do anything, she will eventually fall for you " Jared continued and Lucifer chuckled.
" You don't get it, do you ? " Lucifer said
" I get it "
" No, you don't. It simply means that she doesn't want me, she isn't texting me back, she doesn't want to have anything to do with me "
" She just knew you, and I still can't believe you asked her to be your girlfriend and expected her to accept it just like that. I think you should just try to be her friend for a start "
" Her friend " Lucifer scoffed.
" Yes, for a start "
" So what do you expect me to do? The devil doesn't have any friends, I punish sinners not make friends "
" You mean you want to punish her in hell " Jared said when he knew what exactly Lucifer meant.
Lucifer glared at him " If you don't have anything better to say, just shut up before I throw you Into acid "
" Sorry.....but you know what I mean. You know how humans behave, try to be her friend first before moving to the next level "
" I'm her half not her friend " Lucifer said stubbornly and Jared could only sigh and pinch the space between his brows.
" Okay, let's try it this way. You let me get to know her and show you how it works "
" I know how it works, you don't need to teach me "
" Hmm " Jared hummed.
" I will go see her this evening "
" You know, you don't have to be visiting her always too "
" Didn't you say you want to get to know her to show me how it works "
" Jeez , I thought you said you knew " Jared said and saw Lucifer glancing at his watch.
" I should go now " Lucifer said and got up from his chair.
" No, it's still early. This is just 5:30, there's still time " Jared said glancing at his watch too.
" Just 30 minutes left "
" Jeez, calm down "
Lucifer reluctantly sat back on his chair glancing at his watch every two seconds and when it was exactly 6:00 on dot.
The perfect time to close the company, after all the workers had left. He stood up and left the office not even waiting for Jared.
Jared hurriedly followed him behind and they left for Skyler's apartment.
Lucifer had told Kenneth, his personal driver that he won't be needing his help, instead it was Jared who drove the car as per Lucifer's directions.
While driving, Jared was talking as usual while Lucifer just ignored him all through after he had told him Skyler's address to her home.
When Jared saw that Lucifer ignored him, he then stopped talking and focus on the road.
Seeing Jared stopped talking " are you tired of talking " Lucifer said.
" Really, I didn't know you actually enjoy me talk..... "
" Don't even complete your words " Lucifer said and Jared simply just shut up with a grin on his face.
The rest of the journey was filled with silence, Lucifer who sat at the back seat of the car couldn't stop thinking about Skyler. He remembered when he had brought her to his mansion after saving her from Williams, she looked so pale and weak.
His eyes moved to the front seat she had occupied while he was taking her back home, he smiled and then his eyes accidentally met with Jared's eyes in the rear view mirror.
" Ahem " Jared cleared his throat.
" What ? Is something itching you in your throat " Lucifer asked irritatedly.
" Uh no, I know I'm cute and you can't resist my charms " Jared suddenly said wriggling his brows and looked at the rear view mirror to see Lucifer glaring at him.
" Sorry.....we are here " he said to distract Lucifer to take his eyes off him.
Lucifer finally tore his eyes away from him and saw whom he had been dying to see standing at the balcony with someone else.
Skyler stood in her balcony with Maya, they were both wearing pajamas and were laughing about something when Skyler stopped laughing and stared at a black car parked not to far away from her apartment.
She knew it was Lucas who had come to see her as she had ignored his text. She waited for him to come out of the car but he didn't.
Skyler had explained everything for Maya. Maya who saw Skyler suddenly stopped laughing traced her line of sight to see her staring at a black car.
" Is he the one " she asked.
" Yes, told you he would come " Skyler said.
" Oh my God, do you know what this means " Maya said with a gasps
" What "
" The CEO of the Grey's corporation came to see you just because you ignored his text "
" So ? "
" Wake up girl, that's every girls wish " Maya said
" Even you too "
" Of course , I wouldn't even waste a seconds to be his girlfriend just as you told me "
" Really "
" I am for real girl, do you see me joking "
Skyler chuckled " how can you date someone you don't know "
" Well, who doesn't know him "
" Me....I knew who he was after five days "
" Well, that's you. Why isn't he coming out of the car, I want to see his face "
" Haven't you seen his face " Skyler said feeling jealous all of sudden and when she realized what she just did, she shook her head.
" Not everyone get the opportunity to be in his mansion for five days like you. I haven't seen his shoe neither have I seen his face, I heard he's cute " Maya said.
" Ok, stop it "
" Stop what? Are you jealous ? "
Skyler realized she was jealous, WTF!!!!. Why is she suddenly feeling jealous of him now.
" No, I'm not "
" Why isn't he coming out of the car, is he shy or what " Maya asked again.
" Shy ? " Skyler scoffed " That pervert " she said.
" I'm sorry what ? "
" Nothing "
" Maybe he wants you to meet him "
" What "
" Yes, go on "
" I should go "
" Yes, should I go with you "
" No, it's alright I'll go " Skyler said and finally went down to meet Lucifer who was waiting for her in the car.
MEANWHILE
While Skyler and Maya were talking at the balcony, Lucifer didn't move an inch from where he sat and kept on staring at Skyler.
He was listening to all they were saying when Jared asked " is she the one "
" Yes, the one wearing white pajamas " Lucifer said.
" Well, aren't you going to meet her " Jared said.
" No, she will come to meet me "
" Really "
" Don't disturb me " Lucifer said as he continued to listen to Skyler and Maya's conversation at the balcony.
" Wait, don't tell me you just wanna sit here and just listen to them talk, that's not what we planned "
" When did we plan together "
" Are you.... "
" Shut up Jared, I won't say this again "
Jared finally stopped talking and listened to what Skyler and Maya were saying.
" .... I heard he's cute " they heard Maya said.
" Okay, stop it " they heard Skyler said.
" Stop what ? Are you jealous ? "
Lucifer smiled when he heard that, was she jealous ?
" Why are you smiling " Jared asked, of course he heard it too.
" Isn't that a good sign "
" Of what "
" That she is jealous, I felt it from her. She was jealous just now " Lucifer's mood suddenly lit up a little.
" You can't be so sure "
" I felt it from her " Lucifer said.
" No, I'm not " they heard Skyler said.
" See, she isn't jealous " Jared said.
" Why isn't he coming out of the car, is he shy or what " they heard Maya said.
" Seems this friend of hers really love talking "
" Are you talking about yourself "
" Me ? Jeez I talk with sense " Jared said.
" Shy ? That pervert " they heard Skyler said and Jared looked at Lucifer from the rear view mirror.
" Did you touch her already " he asked with eyes wide.
" I didn't "
" Then why is she calling you a pervert "
" I don't know "
" Hmm " Jared hummed.
" Maybe he wants you to come and meet him " they heard Maya said.
" What "
" Yes , go on "
" I should go "
" Please come over, before I die of boredom here. When did I even became a driver " Jared said.
" Should I go with you " they heard Maya talk.
" No, it's alright I'll go " Skyler said and they saw her leave Maya and came down.
" Well, your plan worked. She's coming to meet you " Jared said.
When Skyler finally came close to the car, she walked up to the driver's seat to see a different face staring at her with a charming smile.
She frowned " you're not Lucas " she said.
" Of course not, I'm Jared " winking at her.
" Sorry, I thought you were.... "
" Lucif.... Lucas " Jared said and almost bit his tongue when he almost said ' Lucifer '.
He could feel Lucifer's angry eyes on his back through the seat.
" He's at the back seat sweetheart " Jared said to see Skyler give him a small smile and went to the back seat to see Lucifer staring at her.
