Angel Of Mine by Amber White (the red fox clan .TXT) 📕

Prolouge:

It started out as every other day, but when I walked down the school hallway that winter day it felt as if my
life just began I saw her there standing just a few feet away from me the most beautiful girl I have ever seen
in my whole life her hair was gold like the sunset, and her eyes blue like the ocean she looked like an angel that came just for me. I knew at that moment that we were ment to be I fell in love the first time I saw her. I would do any thing for her I would let no one hurt her she was an angel...she was my angel.

5 YEARS LATER

I'm 23 I go to college at harvard I guess you could say I was pretty succesfull. It was after my junior year that
my father told me I had to stop pretending and start being the mean he rased me to be, thats when I started going to
harvard and working in his law office when I finished with college and got my degree. He told me to forget the past
but more specifically he told me to forget angel...its been been 4 years scince I last saw her, her image in my mind
was still as livide as if she was standing in front of me. But no I'm engaged to bernadete are parents said we would
be the perfect match scince birth I guess they were right, cause were engaged getting married soon. Bernadete set the
date for september 23rd, Bernadete has no idea what that date means to me. September 23rd was the last time I ever saw Angel. But thats the past I need to get my head out of the clouds and start living in the present...living for the future. "Chase William Blackburn!" "Yes, Mrs. St Claire" "I would suggest you try not to day dream in my classroom." "Yes, mam" That is just great my dad will be sure to hear about this. He'll probally give me his ussual bull crap, I mean I'm 23 don't you think thats old enough for my dad to stop giving me crap. But thats not my dad he will try to control my life until the day he dies. Ugh bull what did she just say something about ancients angels decending, Bull I can't do this crap anymore! Its just to hard for me. "Where are you going Chase Blackburn?" "I...I just...I can't do this anymore!" "Come back this instent young man! Mr.Blackburn!" Finally I'm out of there I just couldn't handle all that talk about angels it was horrifying! You would think after seven freakin years I could get over it, but she just keeps poping in to my mind and what I did to her it makes me sick thinking about it all. Amd to think I have to face my father at dinner tonight. Mrs. St Clair had probally already called my father about me leaving class early and rudely, I should probaly apologize to her next class. Well I have to face him sometime I guess know is as good as any other time.

Sitting at the dinner table with my parents is offely quiet its painfull to think that he's probally thinking about
how hes going to break the ice and start the lecture about skipping class it will probally start so son how was
school today? and I will anwser it was great father then he will say thats nice I bet it was I got a call from you teacher then blah blah blah blah etc. Lets just get this over with already! "So son how was school today?" ha, my dad is almost scarily predictable "It was great father" haha wow this is to good to be true "Thats nice I bet it was...I got a call from your teacher about you skipping out of class earlier then you were suppose to, you know son do you remember anything I tell you?" not really... "Yes sir, I do" "Then why don't you do what I tell you?" "Whatever..." "What?!" Crap, I didn't mean for that to come out "What did you say to me son?!" "Oh nothing father" "Don't you get smart alleky with me boy!" You could see the rage on Chase's face. Chase pushed out from the table so that he was standing "I'm not a boy anymore and I'm tired of you always yelling at me, telling me what to do! I am twenty-three years old I can handle myself now and you now what you can just get over it I'm tired of it all!" His dads face fell, he looked almost sad. Ah crap now he felt bad "Well, son I didn't know you felt that way, maybe if you would just grow up a little" That made him mad and made him even more mad that he started feeling bad for the old guy. "like hell you didn't know you knew I was sick and tired of you hammering your judgments down my throught! You judge me day and night nothing I do is right, it never meets your standards! You have to realize I'm not the perfect son you always wanted!" Chase stormed out of the house, he didn't even try to catch a cab. Its not like he lived that far anyway.

I can't believe even after I told him what I had been trying to tell him for years, he trys to make it all my fault! Acting like I was just arrogant brat, who didn't care about him or didn't even care to! He heard something as he passed that alley. He figured it was just some alley cat or some stray dog. But as he kept listening he heard a whimper, but it didn't sound like a cat. It sounded very much like a women. Chase ran down the alley and when he saw her he stopped dead in his tracks. "No...no it can't be." He walked closer still not sure, he was afraid of what he would find out when he got all the way to her. He had to be wrong, there was no way he was right. But then he saw her, he was standing above her. He dropped to his knees next to her he could hear her breathing. "How could this be?" He picked up the girl, that he barely recognized. Wearing nothing but a ragedy sun dress. She must be freezing, it was practically 30 degrees out here. He pulled her close right next to him, so that he could whisper into her ear. "It's okay, I'll keep you safe. I told you I always would...Angel"

He carried her all the way to his house. He used one hand to unlock his apartment door and kicked it open. He carried her
in and laid her on the coach. He went to his room to grab a pillow and a couple blankets. He came back and she was snoring, it made him smile a little she would never admit that she snored. He lifted up her head a put the pillow underneath her. Went to take off her shoes only to realized she wasn't wearing any, he looked at her feat to find them bloodied and bruised up as if she had been walking a long time. He put the blankets on her and kissed her forehead. "I missed you Angel" As he got up to leave he felt a hand on his arm. He barely felt it just a slight brush, but as he turned around she still layed there and she said "I knew you would come for me" So quiet he almost didn't hear her say it.

Chapter 2
Chase woke up to russling, it sounded like it came from his kitchen. Chase sat up and all the memories from last night came flooding back to him. He got up and through on a pair of plaid pajama pants and rushed out of the room. Chase slowed as he neard the kitchen, he peeked in to find her standing on her tiptoes trying to look into the top cupboard. That made him smile she had always been short, she had hated that.

A sudden flash of memory hit him.

He was sitting in a tree, with her standing below him on the ground. "Come on shorty, get up here." he teased at her. She
just stood there and glared at him. "I can't reach!" He had laughed at her, while she just stood there with her hands on her hips. "Okay, fine. I'll pull you up!" She smiled so big at him. She knew that he would of pulled her up eventually.
She reached her arms up to him, while he reached down for her. He pulled her up and set her right next to him. She laughed "Well its a good thing your strong or I would of never made it up here!" She smiled and playfully poked at his right bicep. His face got bright red. She laughed and smiled at him. "Are you embarrassed Chase?" He just looked down his gaze falling to her leg. Sitting up on the tree had made her dress go up a little higher than normal and thats when he saw it. The first of many he would see a big ugly bruise on her left thigh. It looked pretty recent too, like early this morning or late last night. "What happened?" he asked her. She looked over at him "What?" then she followed his gaze to her leg and started to pull her dress farther down. He grabbed onto her arm to stop her."How did you get this?" She stared at him. "I...I...I just." She was stuttering "I..I just fell down this morning. Its okay." She smiled at him, but it wasn't her real smile. He felt
something in his chest at that moment, he didn't know how but he just knew. She was lying.

Chase came back to the present seeing her pull down what she had been looking for a coffee mug. She turned towards the coffee pot to pour a cup when she saw him. The coffee mug slipped from her hand and landed with a loud crash. She covered her mouth with her hands, with a look of shock on her face. "I can't..I can't believe it. Its really you." She whispered. Then before Chase could say anything else, she ran at him. She ran right into his arms and wrapped her arms around him. Then he heard start to cry. "I just can't believe its really you." She said into his chest. He pulled her close then set her on the counter and left the room.

Angelica didn't know what to do. She was in such shock. She probally shouldn't have ran at him like that, she must have
scared him. Chase returned to the room with a broom and dustpan in his hands. She slid down from the counter to help and started to reach for the dustpan. "No!" Chase practically yelled. "I'm sorry. You might get cut." He slid the dustpan back out of her hand and slid her back on the counter. She felt helpless sitting up there watching him work. So she just watched him, this morning he didn't put on a shirt just a pair of flannel Pajama pants. While he worked she watched his muscles. He had always been built, he's even more so now. The small kitchen window let just enough of the morning light in to
