While Jordan was unconscious he dreamed for the first time in a long time, but a dream never lasts forever, soon he was surrounded by inky blackness, his heart was racing, his biggest fear was around him, nothing. There was nothing at all, he was alone.
"No..." His voice choked, he tried to run through the darkness, but no matter how hard or how fast he ran, it was useless, he was still alone.
Jordan sat on the ground, shivering as he looked around, the scene of the nightmare changed and it was watching his young self being yelled at by his parents, tears filled his eyes as all the memories filled his head. Memories always made the worst nightmares. Tears ran down his cheeks as he watched the scene play out, he looked away as his mother slapped him.
Jordan slowly ran his fingers down his own cheek, it was like he could still feel the stinging pain where she had hit him.
Jordan's eyes opened and he sat up, tears were still rolling down his cheeks. He looked around and noticed all the dead angels around him, his gaze fixed to the three figures that were fighting off the last of Jakes minions, Angel, Thea and Jennifer.
The last of the angels began to run back into the woods.
"Thea and I have got it!" Shouted Jennifer, "stay with him." She said before running after it with Thea by her side.
Jordan let out a small groan and clutched his chest.
Angel heard the noise and turned around to face him.
Jordan shook his head slowly once he saw her, tears continued to flow down his cheeks. "I-... I killed you..." He cried, his eyes still wide.
Angel began to run at him.
Jordan closed his eyes and waited for her to attack him, but what happened next surprised him.
Angel tackled him into a hug and started to cry into his chest, "I'm so glad you're alive..." She whimpered, her soft voice muffled against his chest.
"Angel... I'm sorry-..." She cut him off my placing a finger over his lips, then they were kissing.
Jordan's lips against Angel's.
Jordan pulled her close and continued to kiss her, eventually they were kissing each other passionately.
After several minutes of non stop kissing, Angel pulled back for breath and looked into his eyes, panting softly.
Jordan gently stroked her cheek, "why?" He whispered, "why didn't you hurt me?"
Angel held his hand against her cheek and closed her eyes, "because I love you." She whispered.
And with those three words, they were kissing again.
