Chapter 9

My eyes regain focus and Spencer eyes show so much worry. Tears start to flow down my cheeks as my body shudders in fear.

Spencer wraps her arms around me and rocks me a little in the bed.

“I’m…” I sniffle. “Going…” I hiccup. “To…” I sigh. “Kill them!”

I quickly remove myself from Spencer’s grasp before she can comprehend what I just said, and I quickly find my pants and slip them on.

I can’t seem to find my bra or shirt but I don’t care, I glide to the window about to unlatch the lock when Spencer grabs my wrist and twirls me around.

“You remembered…” emotionless…. Jesus fucking Christ! She’s been human longer than me and I show more emotion that this girl does!

“Jes I fucking remembered! I remember Lisa and Simon holding you back from getting to me!” I pretty much screamed jerking away.

She’s too fucking calm! She should be with me on this… gearing me up for war against those bitches.

“You need to calm down Ashley. they were just doing their job….” HOLD THE FUCK UP! She’s defending them?!

“Why are you ok with this?!”

“Because Lisa might of held me back… but after you where… gone. She helped me remove my grace completely.” She sighed. “At that moment, that was your test Ashley. i never fell in love with a human before. It was so intense. My skin would burn with pleasure with every touch you graced me with.” She closes her eyes. “I was coming to find you to tell you that I was human… I was like you now. A blessed human. And then when I was walking towards town I saw you running towards Kyla as she fell, the others found out about me being human and knew I was going to stop you from making that defining decision. That was your fork in the road. And I was going to stop it, because I knew what you where going to choose because… she was your sister.”

Small amounts of tears escape her eyes.

“I loved you so much Ashley…. I was an angel for 734 years… 734 years without knowing what every human I have encountered felt when they said they where in love.”

I pulled her into me and squeezed her so tightly.

“Lisa was my friend Ashley… the higher beings told her to stop me. and you know we don’t disobey the highers. We never question it. and they didn’t.”

She nuzzled into my neck. “Lisa had some human feelings towards me. she understood that I was hurt and I would never forgive them for allowing this to happen. She regretted it afterwards, so she wanted redemption. she helped me become human, and gave me the necessary incantations to be reborn again and again so I wouldn’t have to go back to heaven. And then we parted. We haven’t spoken to each other in a hundred years. This lifetime I decided that I was not going to perform the incantation. I was going to die a human and be judged at the gates.”

I sigh. “That’s where I came in.” I can feel her nod in my shoulder.

We stand there for a minute until I hear footsteps coming up the stairs. I pull her away and look at her. “Come with me Spencer. I can’t be without you right now.”

She nods through her tears. The door knob starts jiggling.

“Spencer… have you seen Glen or Ashley?” its Mrs. C. I hold my hand up and use my telekinesis to keep the door shut while Spencer finds her clothes and re-dresses herself.

I still can’t find my god danm shirt!

As she places her shoes on I pull her back into me and I take off through the window.

We land on my balcony a few minutes later and I guide her towards my bedroom. She still hasn’t said anything and I just sit her down and take off her shoes.

“What now?” she whispers.

I ponder this for a moment.

Choice 1: I can go destroy the other angels, causing chaos to the world.

            2: I make sure Spencer doesn’t go to heaven.

            3:  ….

I kneel in between her legs and cup her face with both of my hands. “I want to get rid of my grace.”
