In Pain, Please Help? (Lucifer x Reader)

Notes:

This fic is about the reader going through a non-specific episode of pain! (Not-so) fun fact: I wrote this during an episode with nothing to help alleviate it... bathroom floor time at 1 am is not fun. :,) Then I finished and edited it later, so if there's a shift in tone toward the end, that's why.

A romantic relationship between the Luci and the MC is implied because I like writing that better, but it can be read as a very close platonic relationship as well!

Reader is referred to as they/them, and ___ is used in place of a name.

Content warnings: mentions of nausea, mentions of painkillers, MC is in pain!!

Word count: 2.1K

Jolts of pain stabbed at me as I laid on the floor of my bathroom, clutching my stomach while trying not to throw up. My body shook involuntarily and I grabbed a piece of the bathroom mat in an attempt to calm my shaking. It didn’t work. I took a few deep breaths as I stared at the dust in the cracks of the dark tiles. This was not ideal.

I whined involuntarily and pressed my cheek against the cool floor, seeking any sort of sensation that was not pain blooming through my body. At that moment, it felt like it was all I'd ever known. That cold, unsanitary floor was at that moment just as comforting to me as a hug from someone I love would be at any normal time.

'Wait...' I said to myself, trying to ignore the constant haze of pain over me. 'Someone... maybe someone could help..!' My eyes widened slightly at this realization. At my place in the human world, I had to suffer through these bouts of pain on my own. The painkillers I kept with me at all times were my only saviors. But although I didn't have those here, I did have the brothers whom I lived with..!

I grabbed my DDD, fumbling with the lock screen and opening the text feature. Just scrolling through anything on my phone made me feel just as nauseous as if I were in a car driving in high-speed circles. I looked at the toilet beside me hesitantly for a long moment, then shook my head, taking long, deep breaths before facing my phone screen once more. I had to make this quick.

I clicked on a chat purely on instinct and typed out a straight-to-the-point message.

"in pain please help". Sent. Then, a few seconds later:

"i amin my bthroom"

I quickly set my phone down after sending the second message, feeling a wave of nausea overwhelm me as I shuddered again from the pain. Surely those messages made enough sense? I wasn't going to bother explaining more in my current state. I didn't want to worry anyone too much, but at the same time, I did not have the capacity to care as much as I usually do. So, I simply waited.

...

Lucifer's DDD buzzed, making the desk vibrate slightly and startling him out of his trance. He sighed. Who had gotten in trouble this time? He had enough work to do without someone causing a ruckus.

Opening his device, he noticed two messages from their human exchange student. They didn't typically message him when they knew he was working, so this came as a surprise to him.

His mind paused for a moment as he stared at the texts, deciphering them. They... had some sort of pain? That they presumably needed help alleviating? A large part of him wondered if this was a prank of some sort, but his pride wouldn't allow him to ignore the messages after the exchange student specifically messaged *him* for help.

Lucifer sighed as he got up from his chair swiftly, taking long strides down the hallway and to the exchange student's room. What kind of pain was it? How did it come about? Were there some demons he should take care of for them? He would have to question them thoroughly about this later.

Lucifer knocked on the door to their bedroom, but did not wait longer than two seconds to come in anyway. Homework lay scattered on their table and their school bag laid on the floor by the chairs, but the human was nowhere tk be found in the main room. He nodded to himself, then went over to their closed bathroom door where they said they were previously.

"_____, I am here. You said you needed help?" Lucifer asked, trying not to let care seep into his tone too much in case this was a prank, though that did seem more unlikely the more he thought about the situation.

"Luci..! I'm just... having a bout of pain... could you alleviate it in any way..? I don't have my painkillers like usual..." their voice warbled as they responded in a quiet tone, words spaced out awkwardly. Lucifer paused for a moment and grew red at the use of a nickname, but decided to not mention it.

"Of course I can. May I come in?" He asked politely, already resting a hand on the door handle anyway.

"Yes please..." they replied, at which he opened the door immediately. Lucifer expected to see a human in pain, expected them to at least be sitting up. Instead, the human lay curled on their side in the corner of the room by the bathtub, clutching part of the bathroom rug with one hand and their stomach with the other. He noticed they did not have any visible injuries, which was curious. They gave him a weak smile and sat upright for a moment before their face blanched, causing them to quickly lay their head back down. Sweat glistened on their forehead. They weren’t crying, but their eyebrows were furrowed and their eyes glistened with a pain too strong for tears.

"Sorry I'm like this... I don't want to bother you, I just..." they trailed off for a moment, closing their eyes as they shuddered again. "Could you just make it stop? You can get back to work after, I'm sorry..." they sighed, sounding extremely apologetic. Lucifer stared at them for a moment, at a loss for words. All of the human's typical wit and calm demeanor was nowhere to be seen, instead replaced with fear and pain. His eyes softened.

"Come here, darling." He said, kneeling beside them and shifting their head to his lap slowly. They groaned as nausea hit them again, jolting slightly from pain all the while. Lucifer frowned at this, furrowing his brows before he took a deep breath and began to chant a spell. Tendrils of magic flowed from his fingers into various parts of their body as he stroked their head gently, magic sparkling in the dim light of the bathroom. Lucifer felt the human begin to loosen up and sink into his lap as he continued whispering words in Infernal.

After a few minutes of chanting, Lucifer finally stopped as he noticed the tendrils of magic began to resist going into the human, signifying that no more physical pain of theirs could be alleviated at the time. Lucifer sighed once again, though not out of exasperation, but rather out of pity for the human. Considering how long he had to chant to alleviate all of their pain, he could not imagine what it felt like from their end. No wonder they couldn't get up from their bathroom floor to get help in the first place or to greet him when he arrived. What a poor human, having to endure that... they were truly much stronger than they seemed.

Lucifer slowly shifted his position so that he could loop one of his arms below the human's knees and one supporting their back, bringing them into a princess carry as he strode out of the bathroom. The human kept their eyes closed tightly, still taking deep breaths as they calmed down from the primal fear that still seized them even after the physical pain had gone away. They subconsciously leaned into Lucifer's touch, snuggling against his shoulder as he strode back to his room. Lucifer then laid the human on his bed, whispering something under his breath that caused the door to lock behind him so that no one could disturb them anymore.

Upon feeling themselves make contact with the soft bed, the human opened their eyes, observing their surroundings. Their eyes widened a bit upon noticing that they were not in their room as they expected to be, looking up at Lucifer for an explanation.

"I do not want you to be disturbed after... all of that," Lucifer spoke sternly, as always, yet his voice also had a softer edge to it now. "So I will rest with you and look after you now and make sure you tell me about this... this condition later." His tone left no room for argument. The human pursed their lips together slightly for a moment, then nodded.

"Yeah, okay... thank you..." they mumbled, then scrunched up their eyes as they covered up a small yawn with one of their hands. Lucifer chuckled softly at this.

"It is very late, so we will get you to bed soon. But before that, surely washing in my bathroom would be a nice course of action, no?" Lucifer asked, resting a hand onto their back gently, and they nodded in response. After spending an hour or more writhing on their unsanitary bathroom floor, becoming overly sweaty in the process, washing up sounded ideal. Yes, they thought, this was ideal. They smiled at Lucifer.

"Thank you, I'd really like that..." they said quietly, voice still a bit weak. Lucifer stroked their back slightly before withdrawing his hand, allowing them to get up.

"I will get things prepared here and bring your pajamas over. You go on ahead." Lucifer said calmly. "I'll be here." He added. The human smiled involuntarily at that, and set off to take a much-needed shower.

---

The human was now fresh and clean, blinking tiredly as they finished putting on their pajamas. Lucifer appeared from the bathroom then, clad in his own pristine black pajama set. He walked over to the human, resting a hand on their upper back and guiding them over to his bed as they stumbled slightly from mental and physical exhaustion.

Lucifer took his hand away and watched the human as they laid down and curled up on his ginormous bed, snuggling into the pillow like a cat. Lucifer smiled gently, grabbing the edge of the duvet and pulling it over the human, catching their curious gaze in the process. He said nothing, continuing on to tuck the edges of the blanket slightly under the human to lessen the amount of cold air that could get under the duvet. He then went to the other side of the bed himself, feeling the human follow him with their gaze as he laid down and pulled the duvet over himself as well.

Lucifer turned out the lights with a wave of his hand, plunging the room into near-pitch-black darkness. He smiled widely now that no one could see him do so, his lingering concern for the human overwritten by his happiness that they had chosen to rely on him and were spending time with him at this very moment. He stared at the human, suddenly noticing them fidgeting with their hands slightly and looking at him still in the darkness.

"Was there something you wanted before we go to sleep, my dear?" Lucifer whispered to the human,his smile audible in the gentle teasing tone it gave to his words. The human was silent for a moment, startled, before they responded.

"Could you... ah, if it's convenient, could you hold me...?" They stumbled over their words, flustered. "You don't have to for long, I just... want to know I'm not alone." Their voice grew quieter at the end.

"Of course." Lucifer said simply, smoothly pulling the human to his chest and wrapping his arm around them, encouraging them to snuggle into him. He petted their head as he continued. "I would like very much to hold you forever, if I could. Though I will settle just for holding you through the night" They sighed in bliss as they sank further into his hold.

"Thank you so much again, Luci... ahh, Lucifer." They said, words slurring together due to their exhaustion. He hummed in acknowledgement, moving on to rubbing slow circles onto their back.

"We will discuss what happened today when you are more awake, darling. Just know that I am always here for you, you just need to call for me." Lucifer said solemnly, closing his eyes as he felt the human's warmth against him. "And as a side note, I don't mind if you call me any nicknames, my dear. Only if it's you." He proclaimed, feeling them smile against his shirt at this statement.

"Well that's good... then, goodnight, Luci. Sleep well..." The human trailed off and closed their eyes, pressing a feather-light kiss to Lucifer's clothed shoulder before relaxing completely in his strong hold.

"Good night, my dear." Lucifer kissed the human's forehead slowly, pulling away after a long moment and closing his eyes. He kept a protective, yet gentle hold on the human as he listened to the human's breathing slow, their anxiety ebbing away. Lucifer felt himself beginning to lose consciousness as well, and surrendered himself to the pull of sleep.

The both of them drifted off together, feeling infinitely warm as they snuggled up to one another. And in that moment, they both felt more safe and secure than either had ever felt for a very, very long time.

Victory..!! (Leviathan x GN! Reader)

When I moved my fanfic reblogs over to this account from my main, I accidentally deleted this fic! I thought I didn’t have a backup, but I noticed today that a version of this was still saved in my Grammarly account!! I’m so happy T_T so if you’ve seen this before, that's because this is a repost :)

Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who commented on this before, your tags made me overjoyed <333

Notes: Intentionally awkward dialogue. An existing romantic relationship between Levi and MC is implied. Originally written for me to cope with stress from school </3

Word count: 1.5K

Shiiing! A loud sound effect suddenly played as my skill activated. Speedy clicks from our controllers consistently sounded out, almost in time to the lively instrumental music playing from the television. Soft noises from Leviathan’s anxious shifting in his beanbag chair and ambient bubbling from the pool in his room joined the noises of the game to create a calm but lively atmosphere.

Leviathan had called me over to his room out of the blue, texting me that he needed some help to beat the final boss of his new Ruri-chan RPG he had been ignoring school to play as of late. For the past few days, I had consistently been visiting his room after finishing my schoolwork to watch him play and had even earned his trust to help him with previous boss fights as well. I was honestly quite hooked on the story. Naturally, I rushed over to his room as soon as I made sure my homework for the next day was complete.

By this point, we had played through this level a few times, working hard to find a strategy that would defeat the hulking demon on the screen once and for all. I wasn’t ready to give up anytime soon, but I was getting quite tired of having to replay the same level over and over again. I couldn’t imagine how Levi felt, considering he had been attempting the same battle solo before I showed up to help.

Our strategy was to have one person attack while the other built up their specials so that we deal consistent damage to the boss. However, the boss’ AI was still quite advanced, and we were both once again close to death in-game.

My character was backed into a dead end. Levi’s character was nowhere to be found. I was maybe two hits away from permanent death, which would bring this round to a disappointing end. I barely managed to dodge a swipe from the boss, gripping my controller tightly as my eyes remained glued to the screen. We were so close..! I was prepared to admit defeat, until…

A close-up of Ruri-chan flashed onto the screen out of nowhere as she pointed her gleaming shovel at the hulking boss in front of me. I looked over at Levi, watching him press his skill button pointedly. Ruri-chan flew in and smacked the boss on the head, causing it to flash bright red before bursting into a collection of golden sparks.

I stared for a moment, confused before my eyes widened in realization. We did it! After an hour of trying, we finally did it! Our strategy worked! I laughed gently in relief, relaxing my arms and allowing the controller to drop to my side.

Beside me, Levi cheered loudly, throwing his arms up into the air in delight.

“Whooo, finally!” he cheered as bright victory music played. Leviathan turned to face me, piercing reptilian eyes locking with mine, glowing softly in the dark room.

“And it’s all thanks to you, player two!” he exclaimed as he threw his arms around me impulsively, squeezing me tightly. I froze. My chest tightened as I was suddenly overwhelmed by a mixture of confusion and happiness. Someone was hugging me… not just someone, but Levi..! I closed my eyes, basking in the pleasant melody of Levi’s giggles in my ear, relishing in the euphoria of the moment.

Levi pulled away, smiling broadly and leaning over me gently, caging me in against the beanbag chair I rested on. He then came to his senses as his eyes widened and an intense blush painted his face. He jumped away suddenly, and the moment was over.

“A-anyway..!” He continued, trying to recover from his embarrassment as he picked up his controller once more and fumbled with it. He seemed to lose his words, and instead opted for silence as he rushed through the text boxes appearing on the screen, pointedly not looking at me. I was too flustered to reply, so we sat in silence as Leviathan clicked through the finale of the game, staring almost too intensely at the screen.

Ruri-chan returned to her hometown with Azuki-tan, and the game ended with the two of them sitting with Ruri-chan’s friends on a hill overlooking the city with not a cloud in the nighttime sky. I was sad the journey was over but glad that we had finally beaten the main storyline. The credits began to roll as a soft piano cover of one of the themes in the game began to play, and Levi looked hesitantly over at me.

“Hey, uh…” he started, taking a deep breath before trying to speak once more.

“S-sorry for hugging you back there out of the blue like... like some normie or something,” he said with a guilty look on his face, “we were just so cool together!” he became excited again for a second, eyes darting over to the credits before remembering to look back to me. I smiled hesitantly at him, closing my eyes for a moment before responding.

“It’s okay, I’m just, ah… unused to being touched by real people,” I said, my voice quivering a bit, “but it was kind of nice,” I mumbled the last part, my face burning up in embarrassment. At this confession, Levi sat up straight, piercing eyes fixed on me once more.

“Wait, you didn’t think it was d-disgusting for someone like me to hug someone like you?” He questioned, excitement creeping back into his voice. I paused for another moment, looking into his eyes before darting them back to the floor.

“No, of course, it wasn’t disgusting, I…”

“Really?? I thought the same! …uh, I mean, well…” he fumbled with his words once more.

“H-hey Levi, can we hug again?” I said suddenly, surprising myself. Levi was at a loss for a moment before replying.

“Y-y-yeah of course, uh…” he mumbled something into his hand, before jumping up suddenly.

“Y-you know, I’m not scared to hug you!” he exclaimed. “If I can complete that boss fight, I can h..hug you also! Yeah, I’ll hug you just like I hug my Ruri-chan pillow if that’s what you want!” His demeanor shifted suddenly as he straightened up in his seat, still staring intently into my eyes. I smiled.

“That would be nice,” I said simply.

“Th-that’s good!” He said a little too loudly, then looked around before shaking his head.

“Okay, here!” He scooted his beanbag chair over to me, then rushed to get a few extra pillows and plushies from nearby to create a small nest. He then kneeled back down beside me, pausing for a moment before snaking his arms around my waist, pulling me partially into his lap in his pile of pillows. Slowly, as if afraid he would leave if I were to move too quickly, I snaked my arm to rest over him as I laid my head against his chest. He was warmer than he looked, and it was soothing.

“I never expected to be able to do something like this with a real person before,” I said quietly. “I’m so happy…” I allowed my eyes to relax as I stared blankly at the television, focusing on the sound of Levi��s breathing and the gentleness of his embrace. He was messing around with the remote, turning the game system off as his breathing started to calm down.

“I feel the same way. I’m so glad I have you here with me, my own player two…” He said gently, coming down from the high-energy excitement of everything that had happened in the past few minutes. “I guess Asmo was kind of right about how nice physical touch can be…” he mumbled to himself as he fumbled with the remote more, eventually switching over to the anime he had been showing me recently. I listened to the sound of his breathing all the while, and the bubbling of Henry 2.0’s fish tank near us. He grabbed his Azuki-tan plush from beside him and pressed it against my arms expectantly, making me laugh softly as I cuddled it against my chest with one arm while still keeping the other draped over Levi.

“I feel a lot better now, being here with you. Thanks, Levi.” I spoke up again, gently, afraid to disturb the sudden peace that had fallen. The anime was loading up on the television screen. Leviathan pressed a hesitant kiss to the side of my forehead.

“I care for you so much, and I want you to be comfortable. Now let’s watch some anime ‘til we fall asleep, ok?” I could hear him smiling, and I returned the smile with a small one of my own. He tightened his arms around me, softly sighing and whispering something to himself.

Levi’s room was safe. Levi was safe. No matter what’s happening in my life, I know I can always come here and overcome battles by his side.

“Okay.” I smiled, allowing my eyes to fall closed as the intro of the anime played in my ears and dreams of Leviathan began to dance in front of my eyes.
