"Harry, do you really think he can help you? He can't play god" I muttered to him as quiet as possible not wanting the old man to hear me."He has to, he works with the dark arts. They have to have something Margo, something that can help me" Harry whispered back
"I saw in princess and the frog that messing with the dark arts is not a smart idea" I said to him with furrowed brows
"You can't take every thing you see in Disney movies to heart Margo Victoria Day" the old man says
How the does he know my name?
"Now you see" the old man hummed "you've really opened your eyes" he said
I stood there in shock, my lips parted and my eyes a bit wide. I never believed in black magic but now everything I've ever disbelieved is coming back to bite me in the ass.
"I can't help you, but I have a dear friend who can" the old man said "he's young but he's wise, he can help you and your friend" he said
"Where can we find him?" Harry asked, I was still standing there shook.
"Wolverhampton" the old man said and scribbled down the address on a scrap piece of paper which used to be a Chinese takeout menu.
Classy.
"You'll find his building, ask for Mr. Payne. Say Gilbert sent you" the old man said
"Your name is Gilbert? " I said stifling a giggle and Harry hit my side giving me a look a dad would give a little child
"Why are you helping us? We are of course grateful but what's in it for you?" Zayn asked curiously taking the scrap piece of paper.
"Her soul is bright, but future for you two is risky and dangerous roads are head" the old man started
"You're her guardian, her protector. What kind of angel would I be not to let you help her?" He said
"angel?" I asked breathlessly
The old man just smiled and it looked like something clicked in Zayn's mind and my own.
This man wasn't a human, he's an angel, he's Gilbert the ugly dog but a person ?
"That's why you can see me and hear me, and why you know Margo's name" Harry said his brows raised
The old man simply nodded with a smile that for some reason made me feel warm inside.
"Why would an angel help us? I've done so much I'm surprised I'm not in hell by now" Harry said
"A boy with a bad past but a heart full of gold and love for one girl even stronger" the old man said
"You were a caring boy your entire life, you saw the worth in others but not yourself. You were led in the wrong direction by the wrong people but you've lived the rest of your immortal life in regret and repent" he spoke, I think for a second I saw Harry's eyes glaze over.
But he denies it.
"You're in pain my boy, but having her around alleviates that yes?" He asked Harry
Harry nodded slowly and held me tighter to him looking down at me with a closed smile.
"Then see Mr. Payne, make the trip now" the old man said and touched my shoulder.
His touch making my heart warm too, "take good care of her, many battles are soon to come" he whispered before disappearing within sight.
"Today is definitely one to remember, I'll never let that dog in my room when I change" I whispered after a few minutes
"I guess we have a road trip" Harry said looking down at me once more
"Wolverhampton it is" I said, "now I'm going to have to convince my dad to let me take his car" I said and rubbed my face stressfully
"I love you Margo Day" Harry whispered
"What?"
