The Cape Rouge, Monday Evening
Sunday had been Date Night for Lucifer and Octavia, as always. On Monday, Lucifer had gotten it into his head he wanted to do something for Duke. 'Something' had turned out to be a nice home-cooked meal and some time out on the water.
And while Lucifer had contemplated taking the show to his house, as he did with Octavia-- something within him had craved... well, this.
The gentle sway of the water beneath the boat - permanent background radiation now of his life - lulling him into an easy calm as he flopped over onto his back on the bed, still catching his breath. "I can't believe how much I like this bed," he mumbled, inanely.
He'd make sense of it in a moment.

"Yes," he said softly. "She was marveling about it, afterward. That it felt... within reach."

“God,” Duke said softly. “I really want to give that to her.”

"If anyone can, it's you," Lucifer said, and utterly failed to sound like anything but a lovesick fool. (He blamed the feeling of Duke's skin against his.)

"Are you saying it takes two of us to handle Octavia?" he teased softly.

Duke knew it was true, but he still liked to hear it.

"I don't know how," he said. "But -- I'm really glad."

He tried to, anyway.
"I love you so much."

His fingers began to run through Duke's hair. Soothingly.
Not that he'd noticed anything, or anything.
