Lost Angels Wish

falling

I had turned on 10 minutes ago, and Yuki was still hugging me, asleep. "Yuki!!" I hissed for the 5th time.

"Mmmm..?" She mumbled. She opened her eyes, and saw that she was hugging me. I must have looked really awkward.

She let me go and yawned. "Mornin" she said as she stretched. I glared at her. "You alright..?" She asked.

I turned my head away from her and rubbed my eyes. "I'm fine." I said. She must have seen my red eyes

"Hmm." She shrugged.

"So, wheres Angel?" I asked.

"She's in a tree with Calcifer." Yuki said. "We should go get her now... Hopefully Calcifers still there..." She went off towards the tree.

When we got to it, we found Angel face down in the snow under it. "Uuuhhh.... Angel?" Yuki said. Yuki poked Angel with her foot. No response. "Aaaaangeeeelll.... You ok?" Yuki said, poking her again.

"Is she dead?" I asked.

"I dunno." Yuki replied.

Angel popped her head up sneezed on Yuki. "Oh! Uhh, ew. Angel, you alive?"

"I fell..." She said, and stuck her face back in the snow.

"I can see that. Can you get up?" Yuki asked.

"Yeah..." She said. She got up slowly.

"What's wrong?" Yuki asked.

"I woke up and I was alone... Where did you go? I tried to climb down, but I fell. And I was sad, so I didn't move." Angel pouted.

"Something, ah, bad happened to Alice." Yuki said.

"Hm? What?" Angel asked.

"She doesn't want t talk about it." Yuki tried to shush angel up.

"Why not?" Angel asked, turuning to look at me.

"Well... Someone I liked is gone." I said.

"Gone? Will they come back?" She asked, confused.

"No, he's never coming back." I said.

Angel was quiet for a second. "Did he die?"

"No, he's not dead. Or more like, he died a long time ago, and he came back to visit because he didn't get to say goodbye. He's gone now." I told her.

"Oh. I don't understand... But ok." She hugged me tightly. And that's how I almost died being smothered by hugging.

"Aakk! Help! Dying! Aaakk!" I said, my voice smothered by her hug. Yuki was standing off to the side snickering. "Yuki!" I hissed.

"Sorry, I don't think there's room for me!" She said in between giggles.

"Ok, ok! That's enough! Thank you for the hug Angel..." I said, shoving her off me.

"Heheh! Ok!" Angel chirped

I sighed in annoyance. "What were we planning to do? School? Should we try to do that now?" I said.

"Oh yeah... Yeah, we should do that!" Yuki turned to angel. "You want to go to school right?"

"Oh yes, there was that, wasn't there?" Angel nodded.

"Well, give me that map that dumb zombie gave us." I said.

"Calcifer?" Angel said.

"Yeah that." I replied as yuki handed me that paper. "Ummm... How do you read this?"

"What? Lemmy see that!" Yuki snatched it back. "Oh. Oohhh.... Can... Can he even spell? This is... Bad..." Yuki winced at the crude map.

"I don't think he drew this... But then who did?" I said.
