Duke let out a tiny chuckle. "I was a full on cliche," he said. "Pulling his proverbial pigtails until he hated me." A brief silence. "I had to do something to cover, after carrying him to the hospital when he broke his arm."

An eight year old, carrying an eight year old. It shouldn't have worked, but the troubles were active, and Nathan had been bleeding. . . .

He hadn't meant to get into any of this. It wasn't exactly sexy talk. But Lucifer had gotten him thinking about Nathan, and talking to Linda had gotten him evaluating everything in his head, looking for extra reasons behind everything he said or did, and it all just started spilling out.
