My name is ..

Well, my co-angels (that's what I call them) calls me Alex.

That's sort of a thing here. By the time that you enter this place, Heaven, paradise, whatever you call this place, you totally forgot everything, every memories you have when you were still alive, buuuuut some old people, they call you by a certain name until you get used to it. Like they know your past-life.

Which I guess they do.

I don't know what happened, how I got here, I honestly consider myself as one of those reckless, bad-ass girls out there. Maybe I did something good. And God, being the understanding one, let me into this place.

But that's just a guess, a story I made up on my mind.

Whatever. I'm Alex. A sort-of-angel because sometimes, some angels just pushes my bitch button and I quickly turn into bitch mode. And being a bitch to someone isn't good, right? Something like that. But everyone has a little demon in them, just don't let that little-demon get into your head. That's what I do, that's why I'm still here.

I like flying around. It's my most favorite thing ever.

When I fly, I feel like I'm free from anything. No one and nothing can stop me from flying.

Except him.

The only guy i've ever wanted. Maybe. I'm not sure. The only thing that I am sure of is that by the time I saw his face .. my heart beats like a choo-choo train. And since I got him as my assignment, I don't fly that often anymore.

He's my first assignment. You see ,every angel has their own assignment, a mortal to guide and protect. But never in my wildest dream I've planned on falling inlove. Atleast not to a mortal. It's forbidden.

I never plan on telling to anyone about it. Never.

This guy, he's just so down to Earth, he's full of honesty yet sarcasm and sass are on his veins. He's pretty funny, and he always makes me laugh with his funny remarks and witty comments.

I don't always watch him. I can't do that. I need to do something for a living. My God people ! I'm not a stalker, I'm a guardian angel.

Well, this guy I was talking about, he uhhh actually, he got himself a girfriend. Yeah ... boo-hoo to me. But just looking at him, it makes me happy. It's just sometimes, it get's to my head ... or heart, that we can really never be together.

I was happy. I was contented with just looking, staring at him. It's just spark you know, but it seriously is enough to somehow keep me going.

But the day that I most feared came. I was watching him from above. It was a cold, wet night because of the storm. He was running down the streets, I furrowed my brows.

"What is he running from?" I asked myself.

He was still running but faster now.

From above, I can see everything, and what he's doing is gonna get himself hurt.

By the end of the street, there was a stoplight. I sighed in relief when it's on red when he is passing by.

But things happened in a flash, a truck is gonna hit him and he cannot see it.

I panicked. I need to help him.

"If you did that you're gonna have to pay for it." Darren, one of my co-angel said coming out from nowhere. I rolled my eyes. "I don't care" I stood up and getting ready to fly down "Whatever the price is, I'm still gonna save him" and I dove down as my strong wings flaps without failing. I landed on the ground, for me, everything is in slow motion, so I quickly moved like the wind towards him and carry him to the side of the street the same time that the truck passed by. I didn't dare to stop and quickly flew up to the sky after saving him.

I can't be seen. A shining flying object can be seen by mortal. They'd go nuts and might think I'm some sort of alien or superhuman.

But I know he sees me, feels me. He's probably confused by now, maybe scared. I'm scared too.

I landed on the paradise's gate. I sat for a while catching my breath. My hands on my face trying to contain my emotions. 'I touched him' I smiled to myself not wanting to looke like an idiot. I can still feel his warm body through the way I held him earlier. My hands are on his waist like hugging him and his face on the crook of my neck. It only lasted for seconds but it felt like years.

What I did there was pretty much worse than falling inlove with him. I stood up and fly to my room. It's only a room. Everyone has it, but if you're some sort of an important angel, you'll get a bigger one. But anyways, sat on my bed letting everything that had happened sink in. A smile still showing on my face. I sighed "He's okay now" i closed my eyes. I know he's safe know. My instincts tell me. If he ever got himself again in trouble i will always be there, maybe next time i'll kick him in the ass for not being careful.

I run my hands through my hair while lying. I know this happines won't last, i'll just enjoy every second of it. Tommorow i'll face everything. And there's no turning back. I have to face what's gonna happen next.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next morning ..

I was on the fountain of the living, you can see the mortal that you are guarding on the water. "I hope you're okay by now." I smiled at him, but he was just at his sofa, doing nothing and just staring at the telly which is not turned on.

"Louis, stop thinking .." he said to himself probably, still confused by now.

"If only I could explain things to you, I'm sorry Louis .." I sighed. This is so sad, out of the people why does it have to be Louis, it could be a girl. That'd be more easier. A tear escaped from my eye when someone talked.

"Alex, you break the rules .." I stared into the water "Louis? A-are you t-talking to me?" I waited for a response, but there was none. I sighed to myself.

"Great, now I'm crazy .." I stood up from my position.

"Alex .." my eyes widened

"LOUIS ?!" I looked into the water but there was none.

"Alex .." I sighed

"Okay, whoever that is, just knock it off ! It's not funny. Pissed angel here !"

I turned around only to see Nathaniel, one of the greatest angel alive. Sort of. My eyes widened and I quickly kneeled down.

"Sir, I uhhhh. Sorry" I bit my lip down from embarassment. "Stand up Alex" I did what I'm told. "Alexandra Areli Hammond .." 'oh, so that's my real name' I thought to myself while he is talking ".. in breaking the rules. So now, you will face a punishment." I sighed. This is what I get for loving someone. That sucks.

"Yes sir" I frowned looking at the ground.

This is it. Whatever that is, the punishment, it's okay, I guess. Atleast I did it for Louis. It's all worth it. He's worth it. I hope.

I smiled sadly, I looked into Nathaniel's brown eyes "I'm ready"
