Chapter Nine

He stood up, standing me on my feet too, staring deeply into my eyes while his hand caress my face with so much emotion I haven't seen in him, it brought tears to my eyes as I stared into his familiar green eyes.

“Let’d go out on a date, a better one” He said softly

“ Yes sure, I would love too” I said with a teary voice

“Great can't wait ” He showed me a rare genuine smile that had me smiling too.

I sat down and picked up my drink while he got busy looking in the fridge.

“Would you love spaghetti and meatballs” He asked

“I will and I wanted to ask how you knew Jessica” I asked finally stating the real reason for coming.

“Oh Jessica I knew her long before I moved here,” He replied nonchalantly.

“,And Jackson”

“Something like that” He said vaguely

“I just have this feeling that I'm missing something” I tapped my fingers nervously on the table.

“Oh baby you are missing a whole lot”He muttered under his breath.

“And what do you mean by that” I asked getting up on my feets

“And what do you mean by that” I asked getting up on my feets.

“ Nothing babe, calm the hell down” He instructed walking closer to rub my shoulders.

“You can't just make a statement like that and tell me to calm down. What am I missing? Is there something going on I need to know?” I asked in an agitated voice.

“Calm the hell down” Morningstar said loudly

But I was far too angry to notice Morningstar. I finally looked at him only to see him pacing and shaking his head.

“Please Morningstar tell me what's going on, please baby” I finally said in a soft voice.

“You think I didn't try to tell you. I did I try but the next day you suddenly couldn't remember anything and right now I don't think you are ready to know.”

“Bullshit” I shouted “You don't get to decide if I'm ready or not, so just tell me ” I demanded hotly.

“ If you want to know so bad then remember cause I'm getting tired of you not remembering anything”

“Yeah rub that in my face” I said as tears filled my eyes

“Shit am sorry baby” He said kissing my forehead

“Sit down it's about to get deep” He sighed slightly.

“My name is Lucifer Morningstar, I was raised at a science lab there I grew up along sides my comarades. I have inhuman ability, to run faster, ten times stronger, to manipulate the mind, to summon a hell fire and the list goes on.”

My eyes widened in disbelief about what he was telling me, I couldn't believe it but I knew not to disregard the information.

“So Jessica and Jackson are your comarades”

“Yes they are but I can't go deeper into it anyways my childhood was filled with being a test subject, injected with lots of liquids and training”

“So if you grew up at a science lab then what are you doing here” I asked in confusion

“They let me out like a dog let out from his cage”

“Wow that must I've been hard for you”

“Yeah but here I am ” He said with a sad smile

“But what does it have to do with me”.

‘You were the first person who succeeded dummy’.

“ that's for you to remember” He replied kissing my hands

“So that's why I've never seen your parents ”

“I don't have any”

“I'm sure you do since you were taken away from them”

He shrugged and turned back to his cooking and I felt bad bringing up his parents as i had Chris and Thea but he had none. I stood up behind him engulfing him in a warm and quiet hug while rubbing my face on his back.

“I'm fine Eleven” He said turning around to hug me. As I stared into his familiar green eyes I had this painful headache that had me bending down in tears.

“Are you okay baby” He asked with anxiety squatting down to my level

“My head” I screamed clutching it.

“You're going to be fine Eleven” He said gathering me in his hands rocking me

“This is just the beginning of everything” He muttered then began singing some weird song.

“Sleep sweet child, sleep sweet child

My little Lee I do love, my little Lee I do love”

I felt myself getting sleepy and soon I was in a Faraway land.

When I opened my eyes, the softness of the couch hit me and I noticed my overly warm body that was covered by a blanket. The headache was still there, humming in the background like a constant reminder that my time was ticking.

I streched my eyes and remembered that I was still at morningstar's house, I threw my legs down from the couch sitting upright when I heard footsteps.

“How are you feeling now” Morningstar asked standing in front of me

“Apart from the headache am good” I answered smiling

“Is it still severe” He asked his voice laced with worry.

“ No, quit worrying ”

“okay, are you still hungry” Before I could reply, my stomach did so conveying that I was extra hungry. Morningstar laughed and shaked his head .

“Come on sleepyhead you food has been served” He said winking

“All right, Am coming ” I said getting up on my feet.

After eating two bowls of the delicious spaghetti Morningstar served with iced orange juice, I was more than happy and content.

“Where do you put it all” He gestured chuckling.

“have you taken a good look at me” I stood up twirling.

“ I think it all going to your ass and one fine ass that is” He slapped my ass lightly, taking the dishes with him to the sink while I sat on the island swinging my legs with happiness brimming on my face.

I watched his back as washed the dishes and I smiled. Well I could get used to this view.

I stood up from where I was sitting and moved to him and began tickling him while laughing loudly.

“Oh my God so you have a tickle spot” I said with laughter filled in my voice.

“I do so you better let me be or else” He warned

“Or else what” I answered curiously.

I didn't even register when he turned and began tickling me but I was laughing horribly and I just couldn't stop laughing.

“Stop Stop Stop” I begged but he refused to relent then he stopped and he caged me staring deeply into my eyes.

“You're so beautiful” He mused outloud, grabbing my cheeks.
