Angels Wings

The Chase

The night sky was clear the stars were bright and I was on my way home I had felt a chill run down my spine yet there was no wind, I looked around to see a figure standing in the shadows, I ignored the fact that I was being followed as I started to walk a bit faster as I turned the corner, a couple of doors away from my flat I heard

"Hello beautiful" Someone bellowed from across the street

The lights were dim but still managed to produce a shadow, I looked ahead and reaching in my bag for my keys I ran quickly towards my flat door, and so did the shadowed figure, I looked ahead and reaching into my bag rumbling round for my keys, the shadowed figure had stepped into the light that's when I realised who it was. Finally finding my keys I did not hesitate to open my door that is when I saw him come sprinting towards me, so I ran indoors and slammed the front door shut and locked it from the inside.

I ran into the kitchen to get my emergency bag I then ran back into the hallway where I saw him banging on the door shouting aggressively, my heart began to pound I could hardly think as it was beating so loud.

"You bitch let me in!" He shouted as he continued slamming his fists on the door 'Im sorry I mean please let me in I only want have a chat with you' he said but I knew the words that was coming from his mouth was not true

That is when I raced to the top of the staircase knowing he will find a way into the house, then he pressed his face up against the door window I was relieved that it was one of those one way glass so he could not see me but I could see him. Running into my room I then heard the glass shatter as he smashed the doors window.

I rushed over to my bedroom window where I climbed the ladder that leads to the roof, and then a terrible howl echoed through the house

"WHERE ARE YOU!!?" He howled

Hoping that he would not find the ladder that leads to the roof, leaning over the edge I then see his head pop out of my bedroom window, I pulled back hoping he did not see me.

I heard creaks come from the side of the house knowing. I had to make my escape, I then saw his head come to the top of the roof, and I quickly took off my leather jacket off and put it into my bag. Just the thought of me exposing my wings for the first time since being here scared me, I began to run I then jumped off my house roof and flew back to the club I stumbled as I landed just outside, hoping Eric that would still be sleeping in his car.

Hearing the man scream and shout from a distance the rage in his voice echoed the streets, but at that point I was fearing for my life, I decided to find Eric hoping he would let me stay at his just till morning, I saw Eric's car I tapped his window and called his name to get his attention, he woke up and with the shock of me being outside his car and with pale white wings spreading across the street. I pulled my jacket out of my back to hide my wings, Eric then opened his car door to let me in, and he looked shocked to see me

"What are you?" He asked

Eric then leaned over and rubbed my back

"It feels like there is nothing there, just feels like a normal back" Eric said as he was slightly trembling

"I am now don't be scared when I tell you this but I am an Angel, and why I'm here is what I'm trying to figure out and the coat is just a accessory, I can hide my wings and make them look like a tattoo unless in emergency the jacket helps keep them hidden its also comfortable" I sad just staring at him

Eric had turned the ignition on as I looked out the rear window and saw the man stagger around to corner. It was Connor in his drunken state

"Can we go to your house?" I asked Eric as I saw Connor walked past the car, I turned my head so that he did not see my face
