Angels Among Us

The final chapters to the "Angels" sequence.

a/n:Okay, so this is the last story for my "Angels" sequence. For those of you who have read other stories my be, (Namely, Tanya50801, Duddley111, MuSiKaLjEaNiOuS, cecapo3610, Alexzj18, Lil Spazzy Q, and MyPassionateMusician) may know what this story will conclude. For those of you who remember Losing My Angel/Untitled Sadness 277, this is that sequence.

The sequel to Untitled Sadness 277 (aka (and now known as) Losing My Angel), was My Angel Has Returned. If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend doing it.

Okay, that said, here's the summary.

We all know that Jude survived. We all know that Tommy and the twins survived. But 15 and a half years passed where things could have happened. Where mistakes could have been made.

Where hearts could have been mended,

and,

Where more hearts could have been broken...

This is the story of the 15 years in between...

Chapter 1

Safety In Numbers

A/N: And remember, Tommy was shot 4 times in the right arm, so his left arm is the only useful one.

"How're you holding up?"

Darius walked into the Quincy home and followed Tommy livingroom.

"It's, ah, a mess, I know." Tommy picked up a stack of papers with his left hand and threw them onto the coffee table.

"Tom..."

"Huh?" He looked back at Darius. His hair was a mess, and he hand a stubble growing in.

"I said; How're you holding up?"

"I live...Day by day...I'll tell you this though: It' doesn't get easier." Darius nodded.

"Well...how're the kids?" Tommy ran his hand through his hair.

"They...they sleep alot."

"And you?"

Tommy looked back at Darius. "Not so much..." He spoke sarcastically.

"Tom-"

"D, please...Don't play dad to me. I've grown my whole life without one."

"Tom, Georgia and I are worried about you..."

"Well, thanks...but stop, because I-..." Tommy sighed, feeling a knot rise in his throat.

"It's okay to be upset, Tom. And it's okay to break down and cry...Even in front of Jen and little Tom."

He looked up at Darius with tears in his eyes.

"Hell, Tom...it's even okay to hate Jude, if only just for a moment."...

A/N:Okay, that's it of chapter one. but I'm already starting on chapter 2...Expect atleast 3 to 4 chapters tonight. And this is from the day after Jude's death. (Just thought that'd be a useful piece of info.)
