The Fallen Ones

Chapter 5 Hidden truth.

I wake up in the middle of the night, my heart stumping out off my chest. I look across the room, looking at daniel sleeping in the arm chair, I look around, my brain Still spinning, trying to figuere out what had happened. I forced myself to stand up, trying to reach my phone. But it wasnt long when I notice there was a bloody bandage stuck to my leg, I reposition my self, to make it easier to get. I squeal silently in pain.

What am I going to do. When he wakes up, I'm done. his going to murder me, but first I demanded an explanation for all of this. Its not something you see everyday, actually its not something you see at all. I reach my arm to the floor, dragging my legs of the chair. I pull myself up to the glass coffe table, scraping my fingers across it trying to pull my self up. I rest my torso on the table. I grab my phone breathing deeply, I start to diall 911.

and just before I could even press the numbers, the warmth a of a human body apealed to me. breathing heavily. I turn around to see daniel standing close behind me, his arms crossed; eyebrows raised up.

"Liah... I wouldn't..." He warns me, with a deepining edge to his tone.

I start to feel my self tremble in fear.My vein physically appearing in my bare skin.

"Please.." I attemp to say, my tongue dragging. "Dont kill me. You can keep the book, I have 20 bucks in my purse thats all, just please."

I could feel my tears welling up in the back of my throught, dieing to come out.

He chuckles loudly, his adams apple appearing more than usual.He sits down calmly on the couch giving me a blaint smile.

"kill you?" he laughs " Oh liah"

I look at him. Confusion taking over me. He wiggles his jaw and then he leans in closer to me.

"What?" I ask, I drag myself down to the floor, sitting down my legs reached out.

"I'm not gonna kill you, I wanna do stuff to you but trust me killing isn't one, I wouldnt hurt you, ever."

" So you weren't trying to kill me when you were chasing after me?"

" Nope." he leans back on the couch spreading his arms wide over the sofa"

I look down at my fingers fiddling with it. Was this so? He wasn't trying to kill me. There are so many unanswered questions, it was my right for a sincere explanation for all this.

" The wings?" I ask

" Well, I think at this very moment you deserve the truth? Isn't that right?"

I nodd in agreement.

"okay, Well I'm a fallen angel"

I sensed that he awaited for my surprised reaction, but he got nothing out of me.

"What the hell is that? "

" fallen angels are angels that have been physically kicked out of heaven."

" Why where you kicked out of heaven ?"

" well, first because In heaven lives then souls of ungrateful basterds and second of all," He leans in closer. " I did bad things"

"What bad things?"

He stands up making his way to the kitchen.Searching his fridge, ducking down. I attempt to follow him my leg weaping in pain.

" You hungry? You must be after all that running." he pulls out, yogurt and a pudding cup; half eaten turkey sandwhich. I take a seat on the kitchen chairs resting my leg.

" You didnt answer my question!"

" The k-os I caused is between me and heaven."

"Daniel, I want an explanation, actually I need an explanation, for all of this, for the book, and my mom and azza....dany please"
