Prompt: What if a weeping angel fell in love with a human, but she could never touch him, just followed him around all day. And then, just once, she got too close, and accidentally touched him, and this was the result.

Mercedes had always wondered what it would be like to touch him, to hold him, to kiss him. She'd been his guardian angel since he was a little boy, and she was a little girl. Cedes led him from many wrong, steering him towards what's right.

He had always been hers, but she wasnt his. Mercedes' knew all of his deep secrets, His heart, soul and mind. Each day she followed him, and each night she watched over him, madly in love. Sam was an attractive boy of 16. Dirty blond hair, and bright almond shaped green eyes, and his lips werent average but none the less,perfect. Have you ever wondered what happens when an angel falls in love and gets too close?

His name was Sam, Hers was Mercedes. He spoke to her, He knew his angel was there. He had fallen in love with thin air, but she had fallen in love with his beautiful face. "What's your name?" He asked one night when he was younger, his southern accent thick and heavy. "Mercedes" She repeated into his mind. "What do you look like?" He asked, his eyes closed. "I'm not supposed to say" she said.

"Can I take a picture?" Sam asked after a moment of silence.

"You can try, but surely it wont work." He quietly stood up from his bed, picked up his camera and snapped a picture. "Your beautiful" He said after a minute of silence. "How do you know? That's impossible. You cant see me" Mercedes choked out,her breath was in her throat.

"I see you" He said. "and your very beautiful" She blushed. For years, They spoke in hushed tones, talking about nothing particular. Until one day, around the time he turned 18, He asked "Mercy , Do you love me?" Mercedes felt her lung fall to her feet as he said "Because I love you" She couldn't speak.

For months, She just couldn't speak. Humans weren't supposed to fall in love with their guardians. HE would be very angry. This was risky. If He found out, He'd take away her angelic rights. she'd be sent back to heaven, or worse…she just couldn't bare to think it. It was reckless,Cedes knew. Their love was a forbidden secret that couldnt come into existence, even if they tried.

Mercy came back one day, and watched him.

It was possible that he had a broken heart. Sam laid upon his bed for days. tears running down his face. He spoke sadly to his mother, who hadn't understood his heartbreak. He wouldn't eat, sleep or anything. Just cry. You can imagine how she jumped when he said "I know your there" Cedes nodded. "I know.." She said aloud. Her Sammy sat up quickly.

"Did you…Just.." He jumped up from his bed and opened his closet door. He looked even more depressed when she was there. "Over here" She said, the mocha angel was lying on his bed. Sam turned to look at his secret lover, a smile played on his face. He jumped onto his bed, and layed next to her. Careful not to touch his angel. "Your going to be in trouble" Sam said. He got quiet for a minute, studying her face.

"Your…so beautiful…" He breathed. Mercedes nodded, hearing the rain outside begin. He knew. As quickly as she could, Mercedes' short arms were wrapped around his neck and she gave him the kiss she never could give again.

Her brown were eyes dancing, She said quickly "I love you Sammy, I love you. I love you. I love you, I always have and I always will. Forever." Sam wrapped his arms around her, and a tear fell from her eyes . "I love you too Mercy .." He wiped the tears away and said "I promise we'll find-"

That was the last thing Mercedes heard before she turned to stone. The very last thing. That's what happens when an angel falls in love and gets too close.
