GUARDIAN|M.LANGDON

PART 19|ANTICHRIST

To my surprise, he stays

I feel him freeze for a second, I tug on his sleeve again

"Please"

I can hear him sigh as he turns to look at me, and he sits next to me on the bed, and I gaze at him

I'm looking so intensely into his eyes, I can now see why the humans call it 'liquid courage'

Without thinking I move to him, sealing him in a quick kiss

He's quick to return it, probably surprised by the sudden exchange, but soon stops it

"Evelyn, you're drunk"

I whine at him "Micheal", I don't actually have a valid argument but I hope it's enough

I sigh in frustration "just please don't go" I look up at his eyes

He lets out a groan, and he doesn't move, I smile as I fall back into the bed, getting comfortable, I stare at him silently

"Why do you want me here?"

I look at him, a billion thoughts running through my head
Why do I want him here?
Why do I want to kiss him?
Why?

I let out a yawn, sleep quickly washing over me

"I want..." yawn
"To protect..." my eyes close
"You" I let out a sigh as I drift into sleep

MICHEALS POV (shocker)

I looked at her now, fast asleep, comfortable in the bed

Her head was to the side, she looked so peaceful... so ethereal

So, angelic

The word made me wince, she was an angel? I didn't even know they were on earth

A shiver went through my spine

What would this mean for us? Would she be okay? Would I damn her for letting her-

Kiss me
We kissed

I sit up slowly as I think about it some more, was that allowed? Would she kill me once she knew who I was?

Would I have to kill her?
I didn't want to

But why did I care so much? A headache grew in my brain as I thought about it

It didn't matter, it won't matter, nothing will come of this

Even though I secretly wanted it to

-TIME SKIP (EVE'S POV)-

I woke up with a pound to my head

Ugh, for a literal celestial being, you'd think we'd have more resistance to mortal ailments

I groan as I get up, from a comfy bed
How the hell am I here?

"Please stay"
"I want to protect you"

Fuck.

I massage my head, seriously how much worse of a mess could I be? Saying all of that... so easily
