-RILEY’S POV-

I was walking into my house, it wasn’t the biggest of course, it was only me and my dad and dad was never even home. His deployment was supposed to end in June and he was supposed to be coming home but… I wasn’t getting my hopes up. I threw my keys and my bag on the kitchen counter and stalked to my room, and turning on the shower.

It really sucks being home alone, its sad, and scary even sometimes, but I’ve grown used to it. I’ve been living alone since my mom died from cancer two years ago. It was a huge blow to recover from, and in a way I still didn’t think I was completely ok.

I missed her a lot.

I laid in my bed after finally finishing my shower and locking up to house, and as I curled up in my bed I felt something. I felt a presence, like I wasn’t alone, even though I knew I was. I flicked my lamp off and shut my eyes, we were going back to school in a day.

I started to drift off to a really deep sleep when things started to get and fell…weird.

 

 

 

I was looking at this girl, she looked so innocent and… tired? Of what? She was just standing there looking as if she was pondering a lot of grief inside her mind. Her dirty blonde hair hung around her soft face, her crystal blue eyes captivating anything they made contact with. She

I heard a voice, “Riley… this is Jenson Allen, she needs your help, she needs you to save her. You will meet her two days from now at school. You will watch over her, make sure she makes it to her 18th birthday, then you will be free from the Angel that is possessing you. Things will happen to you that are unexplainable, and you will have complete knowledge of it when you wake up… but this has to be kept a secret. She can not know you are vowed to protect her, and if she finds out there will be consequences.”

I looked around for the voice but all I saw was Jenson, I smiled, feeling peace wash over me seeing her alive and ok. I knew this girl, I knew

everything and I had never even met her yet. I didn’t understand now, but once I woke up I would.

Which would be very soon.

 

 

 

I gasped awake and looked around, I could feel Jenson, I knew exactly where she was, and what she was doing. She was sleeping, in her bed, at her house a couple of miles from mine. She was at peace, she was happy, dreaming about her and her little sister.

I knew everything about her, what she had been through, her family problems, her depression.

And then all of a sudden I was standing in front of her. Was I still dreaming? I bent down, running my finger along Jenson’s hair line, nope, I was awake.

How did I get here? Did I really just teleport? I could go anywhere I wanted to… then Jenson stirred. No, she couldn’t see me, she could know the truth. I closed my eyes as I heard her sit up, I was waiting for a gasp, and something to be hollered and thrown at me, but there was nothing. I was scared to open my eyes, what if I opened my eyes and whatever I was doing to make her not see me faded.

I peeked, seeing Jenson looking at me, but she didn’t say anything. I moved, and her gaze stayed where I used to be. I looked down, not seeing anything, I was invisible…

She laid back down, running her hand over her face and turning over. I looked around her room, there were boxes, she had obviously just moved here. I looked around, seeing picture frames and clothes lying all around. She looked like she had been busy as she laid there in a tank and sweat pants. I studied her, now that I looked at her, she looked fragile.

She was more beautiful in person though.

I realized I had started to feel like a creep, even though that it was my job to watch over her, I knew she was fine. I just had to figure out how to get back… home.

Then just as fast as I thought about it I was there, standing in my room again.

This was so bizarre, I didn’t know what to expect. I needed to protect this Jenson girl for 6 months, until she turned 18 on May 21. I was hoping I could just go by my intuition, because other then knowing my powers and my mission… I didn’t know what to expect.

But I could tell you one thing, I definitely expected a challenge.
