Cleo was standing in the realtor's office getting ready to finish the paperwork on the two story home that the fallen angel had found a few days before. It was a light blue color with white trim on the outside with four bedrooms and three bathrooms. She tapped the end of the pen against her cheek listening to the man talk across from her while her eyes were quickly scanning the paperwork reading the contract the pair were signing into. The pen was in her left hand while her right hand rested on her "husband's" knee giving the impression that she did love the man sitting next to her.

The wedding band on her finger carried a medium sized diamond in a white gold band with smaller diamonds around it. The realtors eyes kept looking at it with each tap of the pen before he looked between the pair with a smile.

"I want to say thank you for choosing to buy with Drackus Realty. I am sure you are going to love the home and will make many memories in it." He was an older, heavier set gentleman who ran a hand over his slicked back dark blonde hair as he spoke.

Cleo's eyes stopped moving and she lifted them to meet his gaze with a warm smile. "I am just glad that I could finally talk him into getting the larger house. You never know when there might be little feet running around." She turned to look over at Lucifer with the same smile giving his knee a gentle squeeze before flipping the contract to the end and signing her name in delicate handwriting. "Mrs. Lynette Williams."

Of course she wasn't going to use her real name. It would defeat the purpose of being in the mortal world and keeping Lucifer safe. Cleo then offered the pen to Lucifer and sat back, pushing her dark braid back over her shoulder. The angel had gone with a simple black pencil skirt, heels, and a dark grey blouse to finish signing.

"Your turn my dear. And then we can get on with finding the perfect furniture for our home." The main thing she was excited for in the home was the basement. She had already started planning where she could hide any weapons and a place to question people, if absolutely necessary. Cleo leaned closer to Lucifer and lowered her voice to where the two of them would only be able to hear.

"If he keeps staring at either the ring or my chest, I will not be afraid to take a heel off and use it as a weapon...Even you haven't stared as hard as he is." Her lips close to his ear to look as if she was whispering coercion to the man instead of what she wanted to do.

(Please let me know if I need to change anything.)

The older gentleman flushed deeply at the mention of where his eyes had been roaming. He cleared his throat thinking through his words carefully. He picked up the contract and scanned it quickly nodding his head. “It looks like everything is in order.” He pushed the keys to the home towards the pair trying to regain some composure. “I wish you two the best of luck with your new home and let me be the first to welcome you to Hendrickson.” Cleo stood when the man did and shook his outstretched hand quickly before looking over at her ‘husband’ as she picked up the keys. The tensing of his jaw muscle didn't escape her attention when she had gotten close. We will have to work on that. She made a mental note before turning her attention back to the present.

“See I told you all of our hard work was going to pay off.” She flashed her warm smile before turning to head out the door. The man watched her leave before looking at ‘Mr. Williams’. You are a lucky man to have found a woman like her.” He offered his hand to Lucifer still trying to smile. “It was a pleasure doing business with you.”

Cleo had set up most of the meetings and finding of jobs before Lucifer had arrived. Otherwise what kind of bodyguard would she be if she didn’t take the initiative to find something they could both do. She stepped out into the slightly warmer outside air and took a deep breath as she rested her hands on her hips. “Now to just start our jobs and everything else should begin to fall into place.” The young woman looked over her shoulder to see if Lucifer was coming before moving over to the 2018 GMC Acadia and climbed into the driver’s seat turning on the car.

Before she was going to take him to their home, she had to stop by the grocery store and then the office that they were going to be working at to see if they needed anything for the office. Gotta try and make a good impression before she starts. As much as she hated the idea of being a secretary for the accounting office, it was better than nothing. Cleo had thought about being a stay-at-home wife but quickly pushed the thought from her head when she realized that she would hate being in the building alone. Her fingers drummed on the steering wheel as she waited only stopping when Lucifer walked out of the building.

She waited for the door of the car to close beside him before speaking up. “Thank you. You are my knight in shining armor.” She began to back the car out and drove down the street of the smaller town. Hendrickson didn’t have more than maybe 1,500 people on a good day. It was also nestled deep in the Rocky Mountains where it would be easy to get lost if one wasn’t paying attention. It of course had a grocery store, a few car shops, banks, a few little family restaurants, and of course bars. As they passed one little diner, Cleo glanced over to the demon beside her. “Are you hungry?”

A chuckle left her lips as she pulled into a little cafe. "How about I order something to go and then you can drive us to the office. I want to see if I need anything there. Then we can go to the house or the furniture store, whichever you want to do." She put the car in park and climbed out of the car walking inside. She wasn't gone for more than 30 minutes when she came out holding two bags and moved to the passenger side of the car seeing that Lucifer was now in the front seat.

Cleo set the bags down and slipped on her seatbelt and smiled as she took in his features from his profile waiting for him to ask where the office was. This wasn't Cleo's idea of a good job. She would rather be hunting down rogue demons or other fallen angels though she couldn't put down the opportunity to try and get Lucifer to fall in love.

Was she hiding a secret agenda? Possibly since even she was curious as to what it would take to find a being that could turn the demon king's heart from stone. Her eyes drifted closed for a moment before she turned to look out the window with a soft sigh. "For some reason, I was feeling a little off today. But when you came along, you definately turned me on."

A faint smile danced at the corners of her mouth but she pointed to the left when they reached a stop sign. "You will want to turn right here and then a left. That will put us in front of the building. It has a lovely sign on the lawn that says 'You'll love us as your accountants.'" Cleo had spent a few sleepless days looking into the different jobs and trying to find something that the two of them could do. Granted she knew nothing about accounting but it was either this or try to be a personal trainer at a gym.

One thing that she was looking forward to was having a small little personal gym at the house that she could train in to keep her physique and skills finely tuned. Her eyes scanned the buildings as they passed waiting to see the sign that so lovingly pointed out their new jobs.

Once the car was parked, Cleo watched him before rolling her eyes. "You really want to know why I said that?" She picked up the bags after climbing out of the car. She walked over to the front door and waited for him to open the door. "It isn't like I am making us share a bedroom and bed? At least I gave you the master bedroom. I am not ready to give up the space of a king bed when sleeping alone."

Once he opened the door, she stepped inside and walked into the kitchen to set the bags down. "And get used to the corny lines. One of us has to make it look like we are totally in love and can't get enough of each other." She looked over her shoulder at him with a very visible eye roll as she began to pull a couple little containers and then a larger one spreading them on the table.

His quick turn down of her pick up line had stung a little but it was just the first day of their new life. Maybe things would change over the course of their time. How long that would be is still up in the air. She pulled out a couple sets of plasticware and picked up one of the smaller containers and opened it after grabbing a fork and began to work on the salad that was within the white container.

"There is another salad or a cheeseburger with fries in the larger container." Cleo had turned and was leaning against the counter a little ways away from the food looking over the kitchen as she took another bite. She waited until she had swallowed before she spoke again finally looking over at Lucifer. "Do you want to take turns making coffee in the morning or shall I be the dutiful wife that makes her husband's coffee the exact same way every morning?"

She was trying to find some sort of compromise for the two of them. Maybe having a schedule of who did what on what days would help keep them from going at each other's throats. "I know you don't typically like getting up early so I can have some breakfast made after I do a run in the morning."

The fallen angel was already working out what her daily routine would be and where she would be keeping her items. Part of her hoping that he would still follow his regular routine and wouldn't see her in the oversized shirt that she wore as pjs and when she would make her own breakfast.

Cleo raised an eyebrow watching him for a few moments after he stated that he enjoyed cooking. "I wouldn't make fun of that. Honestly that makes it easier for me. I don't mind cooking but I sometimes don't have the patience." Plus that meant a little extra time for her to work out in the mornings instead of worrying about breakfast. His next comment about her not checking on his sleeping caused her to put a hand over her heart in mock horror. "I have failed at my post...I must pack my things and leave."

Cleo met him at the door and held it open. "After you, your highness. Grocery shopping sounds like a lot of fun but I am going to go for a quick jog around the neighborhood if you don't mind. I trust that you won't get into too much trouble without me there to hold your hand." The fallen angel didn't want for him to feel like he couldn't do things without her being practically joined at the hip with him. They were new to the area and it was as good a time as any for her to canvass the area for anything suspicious. She was paused in the doorway as she reconsidered going for a jog, her eyes looking as though she was reading something though there was no paper in front of her.

"Thank you for offering though darling but I think you can handle the grocery store. I also want to make sure the space downstairs is set up the way I want it to be...gotta have a secret stash of weapons somewhere. You know how to call if something happens." A part of her wanted to give a smart response but she wanted to spend a little time alone as well before having to worry about something or someone coming after him.

She waited until he was out the door before stepping out of her heels and padded to the stairs that led to the basement. She almost ran down them knowing that a couple of items had been delivered and set up before the couple had arrived. The punching bag and metal wall of various weapons filled her view as she rounded the corner, a smile forming on her lips. Granted she may have gone a little overboard with the weapons but someone can never be too sure what weapon would work in certain scenarios. Her braid bounced with each step she took inspecting the area before moving to one of the closed doors opening it to check inside.

Once she was satisfied with the basement, she was back upstairs and walked to her room opening the door thankful she had packed a small bag and dropped it off the day before. She changed into a pair of joggers, tank sports top, and sneakers. Once she checked the other rooms and took mental note of what she needed to do after her run, she was out the front door and jogging down the sidewalk waving at a few neighbors that she passed.
