I hit the gas as we began to pull into the driveway,
“Plenty of people have hurt me Lucifer, he was not the first and he certainly will not be the last,” I said as I put the car in park and began unbuckling my seat belt.
“Perhaps if you learned to fucking take care of yourself then I wouldn’t have to step in and help-”
“HELP! Is that what you think you did?”
Lucifer didn’t answer as he opened the passenger door and slammed it shut, walking up the stairs and into the house. I hurried out of the car and followed him, catching the front door before it closed in my face,
“What you did was stupid and reckless and dangerous!” I shouted at Lucifer as we walked through the front door and into the kitchen at Gabriel’s house. What Lucifer had done,
He’d nearly beaten a man to death!
I knew where he was going the second he took off. I had to stop him. I didn’t give a shit about the therapist, I knew eventually he would get what was coming to him but Lucifer didn’t deserve to be tangled into that and that nosy receptionist? I knew the moment she heard something coming from that office she’d call the police and who knows what could have gone down.
“That’s rich coming from you!” He spit out as he grabbed a water bottle from the fridge.
“Excuse me, what’s that supposed to mean?”
“You’re the queen of reckless and dangerous decisions around here, or have you forgotten the drinking and sleeping around?”
Of course, he would throw that back in my face.
“Well, at least my activities don’t end up with people dead!”
My activities no matter how reckless or stupid they might have been, never ended with me or someone else dying or potentially calling the police or me ending up in jail! Lucifer not only endangered my former therapist’s life but he endangered his own. He could’ve been hurt!
“BULLSHIT, YOUR ACTIVITIES END UP WITH YOU DEAD!”
“You are such a demented prick!”
“And you’re an insufferable bitch! I thought we had established this already!”
“Why would you do something so stupid?”
“BECAUSE HE HURT YOU!” Lucifer yelled as he slammed his hand onto the marble island,
“He hurt you and then had the nerve to put his hands on you.”
“Why do you even care Lucifer?”
“I DON’T FUCKING KNOW OKAY!” He yelled as he stood up and walked over to me,
“I don’t know why I care but when I saw his hands on you I lost it and I wanted nothing more than to kill him and trust me Catalina if you hadn’t been there I would have!”
I didn’t doubt it. I knew that had I stayed here Lucifer would have killed him. He wouldn’t have regretted it either. He would have absolutely slaughtered Dr. Wilson and part of me smiled thinking about him being dead. Lying on the ground, unable to hurt anyone else but another part of me knew that he deserved a fate worse than death. He deserved to suffer. Yet another part of me knew taking a life, even a life that had caused me and possibly others pain, was wrong.
I didn’t want to think like that. I didn’t want to think that someone who hurt me didn’t deserve to be hurt as well. But that would make me what my mother always said I was. A monster.
Mother always said it was important to forgive each other but what if I didn’t want to forgive? What if I wanted them to suffer? Did that make me a horrible person? Did that make me the monster she said I was?
I reached up to touch his cheek, he was still so warm and his face red and flustered.
“You could have been hurt,” I whispered to him,
He chuckled as he leaned forward,
“I told you before, you don’t have to worry about me princess.”
