No Angel

The Welcome Home

Q saw the bright light shining through the windows of Aria's room and quickly woke up. He looked down at Aria who was peacefully sleeping on his chest and smiled. Q slid out of the bed as quietly as possible without waking up Aria. He put his shirt back on and buttoned it up before checking his phone and seeing that it was almost 9:00.

Aria woke up to see Q sitting on the edge of her bed putting on his shoes. "Good Morning" Aria said to Q as she sat up and stretched. "Good Morning Ma" Q said turning around to face Aria.

"Are you leaving already" she asked with a hint of sadness in her voice. Q cracked a smile before replying. "Yeah I got some business I need to take care of today" Q told Aria before finishing up with his shoes. Aria sat up and watched him as he continued to ready himself to leave. Aria looked sad as she watched Q dress as if she'd never see him again. Q could see the look in her eyes and he smirked a little.

"You still want to do that little get together for my lil man today" Q asked seeing Aria perk up a some. "I thought you didn't want to do that" Aria asked. "I said I didn't have the time, but if you still want to it's all you". Q said as he pulled out a wad of money from his pocket completely full of hundred dollar bills, then peeling off four of them and handing them to Aria.

"What's this" Aria asked looking at the money surprised. "That should be enough for some hot dogs and chips or something right" Q asked as he put his phone and money into his pockets. "Of course it is" Aria said still shocked that he had just given her $400.

"Just pick up whatever you need for the party and then bring it over to my house when you get done. I'll call everybody and let them know what's up and then we'll go from there". "What time do you want me to bring the stuff" Aria asked. "Before 3 or something, just call me and I'll give you the directions" Q said before handing Aria a key.

"What's this" Aria said looking once again confused. "It's my house key so you can drop the stuff off" Q said very nonchalantly. "You trust me in your house" Aria said in a shocked tone of voice. "Is there a reason I shouldn't" Q asked with his eyebrow raised. "No. No I was just saying...never mind" Aria said waving her hand dismissing her comment. Q just laughed again. "Look ma, just get the stuff drop it off, and then come back around 5. By then everyone should be there. And you can bring your friend so it's not so awkward for you if you want" Q paused for a minute. "Can you handle all that" Q playfully teased. "Yeah of course" Aria answered back. "Good, now come let me out" Q said to Aria, who did as told and led him to the door. They kissed lightly before Q finally left.

Aria closed the door behind him and began to do a dance of happiness. As she calmed down she preceded into her room in search of her phone. When she finally found it she quickly dialed Mia's number but was sent straight to voice mail. She dialed again but was once again sent straight to voice mail. She decided to send her a text, and within seconds was received a reply. She looked at Mia's reply and decided to call her back this time getting a pick up.

"Whhhhhaaaaatttt" Mia said into the phone still with sleep in her voice.

"How dare you answer my text and not my phone call" Aria asked irritated.

"I picked Ari now what I'm tired it's still early".

"Well I got some things to tell you" Aria said sounding excited.

"What" Mia asked.

"Umm attitude" Aria joked.

"I'm sorry. Good morning Aria, how are you this morning" Mia said sarcastically, causing Aria to laugh. "Better" she asked.

"Yess" Aria replied before telling her story.

"Well I called to tell you about my night".
