angel

chapter 2

Mrs. Rowling had already spelled Mia into looking better. Her hair looked nicer, and now she was wearing a baby blue outfit.

Amsterdam. Stephen was still in bed with Eloy. He was tucked under a thick comforter and he was obviously still in a deep, deep sleep. Mia and Patricia sneaked in to take a look at him. "Can he see us yet?" Mia asked. Patricia only placed a finger on her lips commanding Mia to shut up. 'Bossy' Mia thought to herself.

Boy, are you cute or what?" Patricia said drawing Stephen's hair off his face.

Don't do that, you might wake him up." Mia whispered reminding her.

Oh shut up!" Patricia shouted. The other guy who was sleeping beside Stephen opened his eyes a bit and moaned softly.

Quick, disappear!" Patricia said, pulling Mia out of sight.

Stephen?" the other guy said. He shook the Stephen's body softly. "Did you say something, baby?"

Erm, nooo..." he said in his bedroom voice.

But I can swear I heard someone shout something." the guy whispered in his sexy Dutch accent.

Maybe I was talking in my sleep again, honey." Stephen said lazily. "I was dreaming of meeting a ghost." he continued.

Oh, okay. You get back to sleep then." the guy pecked Stephen's check and wrapped his arm around him.

Phew! That was close!" Patricia said. "I forgot to set our voices so he can't hear us."

But why couldn't we just let him see us? I thought he was suppose to see us?" Mia said.

Not now! We wouldn't want to scare the lad would we? But he dreamt about seeing a ghost. That's good, because that means he's starting to get signs from Mrs. Rowling..." Patricia said. Mia raised her eyebrows questioning what she just said. "Erm, when people are going to get guardian angels, they get dreams about meeting the angels. He was probably dreaming about meeting you. But he didn't know it was his guardian angel. So he described it as a 'ghost'. I think we can start showing ourselves to him today."

Then you're going to leave me here? When do I get to go home to the clouds?" Mia looked worried.

You wont." Patricia said lightly.

But what if I need help?" Mia said. "What am I..."

I forgot..." Patricia cut her sentence. "Mrs. Rowling asked me to give you this..." he handed a mobile phone to Mia.

A phone?" Mia said. "How am I supposed to make calls to the clouds from Earth?"

First you press * once and then press the navi-bar 7 times and press # 4 times. That's Mrs. Rowling's office. My phone number is exactly like that except you press the # 1 time."

Geez..." Mia said. Mia and Patricia looked around the house waiting for Stephen and his boyfriend to wake up. Mia liked the house. It was really big and comfortable. Loads of DVDs. And some Disney stuff. Mia didn't like Disney. She liked MTV cartoons and Anime. Minutes passed and Mia and Patricia could here Stephen and Eloy walking downstairs, heading to the kitchen. They both followed behind. The lads couldn't see or hear them, they were invisible. Stephen sat at the kitchen table and Eloy was pouring hot water into a coffee mug.

Want some, Steo?" Eloy asked. Stephen shook his head.

Not in the mood" he said.

Is everything okay?" Eloy asked looking worried.

Yeah. It's okay. Just a weird dream I've been having for the past 4 days..."

Four days? You mean four days in a row?" Eloy said looking back at Stephen. Stephen nodded. "That's strange. What was it about?" Eloy took a seat in front of Stephen.

It was about me meeting some ghost. She was this teenage girl and she has dark hair and really deep dark blue eyes. She was a bit weird, but she somehow made me feel safe... " he paused. "I don't know why..." he continued softly.

Don't take it too seriously, Steo." Eloy tried to comfort him.

What do ya mean, don't take it too seriously?" Stephen frowned. "She's been in the same dream over and over. And the dream just came out of no where. It's got to mean something." Eloy smiled, understanding that Stephen is superstitious and he takes things like this very seriously.

Now what was she wearing?" Eloy started to take this seriously too. "You should be able to know what era she was from from the clothes she was wearing... What did she look like?"

Well she looked like..." Stephen's eyes widened, his lips were dry and his face went white. His jaws dropped down and he started to shiver.

Stephen?" Eloy was really worried. Stephen still didn't say a thing. "Stephen what's wrong?"

Maybe the ghost looked like me?" a small voice said with a smile. Eloy looked back, he saw Mia and went:

Aaaaaaarrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Eloy screamed his lungs off running around the table to Stephen's chair. He quickly pulled Stephen's stiff and cold body up and held him in the corner of the kitchen.

Aaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!" Mia spontaneously screamed too. She didn't have a reason to scream, but Eloy screamed and it shocked her and she screamed back at him before she realized she was.

AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!" now Eloy, Stephen and Mia were all screaming in the kitchen.

STOOOP!" Patricia shouted. Silence. "Would you all just quit being stupid?"

W-who are you ladies?" Stephen stuttered. Patricia smiled.

I'm Patricia. And that's Mia." she said pointing to Mia. Mia tried to smile, but she was too nervous. "And before you ask: No, we're not ghosts. We're guardian angels. And Mia's been in your dreams because she's sent to be your guardian angel."

If that little one is going to be Steo's guardian angel, then I suppose you're my guardian angel?" Eloy stared at Patricia. Patricia shook her head.

Nope. I'm Mrs. Rowling's assistant." Patricia said.

Who's Mrs. Rowling?" Eloy and Stephen said in unison.

Our boss." Patricia answered. "She's the one who sent Mia to be Stephen's guardian angel."

Gee, I must be blessed for having a guardian." he looked at Mia friendly. "Hello there!" Mia flushed. She liked Stephen, she liked good-looking guys. She was so excited.

Hello too, I suppose..." Eloy said as he released Stephen. "I've never seen a ghost before..." she couldn't keep his eyes off the girls.

We're not ghosts!" Patricia said angrily.

Oh, I'm sorry. I meant 'I've never seen a non-mortal before'. Know what I mean?" Eloy said.

Okay, now Mia. Time for me to go! Good luck! Bye bye." Patricia waved and disappeared in thin air.

Hey! Wait!!!" Mia panicked. "Where am I going to live?!" she was pale.

"Here!" Stephen and Eloy said together with a smile.

Mia was too confused to think, so much happening to her, so quickly!!
