Infallible (Stray Kids x Reader Angel AU) by always_5hinee

(Warnings: Mild language, violence, death, intense themes) Y/N has not lived a particularly easy life. As she's driven to the edge, (both figuratively and literally, as she's nearing suicide), she is met by her guardian angel. He's a bit different than she'd expect, and he ends up dragging her into a disaster that she honestly wanted no part in. Still, for better or worse, it's her problem now. While an angel may have saved her first, she might find herself needing to become the savior. [Please note, this story has no intentional religious connotations and does not comply with Catholic or any other faiths involving angels - it is simply for fun.)

With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him.
