Chapter 9
" tell me" I said while I looked at him. " Alice.. Please" James didn't want to tell me. " fine, I fall for you every time I see you". " we have never met, how can you fall in love with me?". " not in love, I fall from heaven. I am an angel. You and me lived together in the same town long time ago. But I died. My love for you made me fall on earth every time I see you again. When you are in this age".
" why?". What a stupid question. " 'why?' because I love you. And heaven is not heaven without you. I looked for you there, but it seemed like you always be here. Never see heaven". " how can you be sure I am not going to hell?". " cause if you did, I would know"
" you can't tell anybody. This is very dangerous to tell" he said it in a low voice looking deep in my eyes. " what am I ?" I asked. " you are Alice, the girl I love and the girl I will never let go". He was so sweet. I wondered if he had wings but didn't ask.
He was an angel. That explained a lot. Like how sexy he was. How he moved and talked like he knew me.
" you look tiered, want to sleep over?" I wasn't like that before, offering guys to sleep in my bed. But he is an angel, falling for me every time I am 15. Instead of being in heaven!
" no, I can't. I can stay with you till you fall asleep". Maybe angels didn't sleep. I put my head on his chest and started to hear this heart beat. I followed the rhythm and I fell asleep.
I woke up late. Didn't care much. I only thought of the best sleep I had in my life. And James, he told me the truth. Knock, knock.
" honey?Are you dressed up? You will get late for school". Mom didn't know. I couldn't tell her so I said " mom, calm down. I will be downstairs in a minute". It was true I took a nice top with dark jeans and my converse shoes. Brushed my hair as fast as I could and went to get my bag. I ran to get my skateboard.
I was 3 minutes late. " Alice, you can't be late". Stupid teachers never learn. In the end of a school year no one really cared. " yes, I am sorry". I lied. Boring lesson went on and I saw John talking to a girl in front of me. It was a I am going to make you jealous moment. I didn't care. James sat behind me. If I wasn't late I could sit next to him, but one of the guys sat and joked with him about water fights and pranks.
What was it for a lesson? I had no idea. I didn't care. A top student shouldn't think that way. But I did. My mind thought of something else .
" want to met up after school?" I asked James. " where?" " my place" was my answer but his was a smile.
