I know I haven't updated for awhile. I'm sorry. It's just I got low grades(just 1 D) and of course my parents punished me by taking away my gadgets. Here's my apology chapter. Thank you for all your reviews!
On with the chapter.

Adam couldn't sleep.
Ever since Michael mentioned his mother, he hasn't been able to forget. He couldn't forget the times he cried and waited for her to comfort him. He couldn't forget the hardwork she did to get him to school. Now, he just couldn't forget her.
His sleepless night would have continued when he heard a fluttering of wings. Michael was in the room.
He sat up and looked at Michael. "Hey Michael. What are you doing in here? I thought you were sleeping."
Michael looked tired which was funny since angels don't experience fatigue. "I was sleeping when I felt your distress. Is something wrong?". Michael tilted his head like a puppy. A cute puppy.
Adam looked away for a second then turned back to face him, "I'm sorry. I'm just remembering my mother", was all he said.
Michael sat beside him and put his hand on his shoulder. "Well I have something that might make you happy" he said.
It was Adam's head's turn to tilt. Michael removed the hand from his shoulder and, using his left middle finger and index finger, placed it on Adam's forehead.
Adam fell asleep instantly.

Adam woke up in a green field. It had lush grass, trees and flowers. He then saw a set-up for a picnic. A checkered mat and a picnic basket.
Like the ones he had with his mother.
He sighed and called out. "Michael, Michael where are you?"
When no response came he just sat down on the mat. He heard a female giggle beside him.
"Hey Addy." A voice said.
Adam froze and turned around. It was his mother.
"Mommy" was all he said.
Kate nodded. "Yes honey, its me."
Adam rushed to hug his mother. His mother whispering "I'm here" over and over while Adam was sobbing on her dress. They stayed like that for awhile before Adam pulled away with red eyes.
He wiped the tears and kissed her on the cheek. "How are you here."
Kate smiled at her son and said "That angel, Michael, came to me in heaven and asked that I come with him to see you. I never realized you missed me that much."
Adam couldn't believe what he was hearing. Michael risked discovery and his life just to make him happy. Him. The mistake. The child no one expected to happen.
"Of course I miss you. You're my mother."
Kate grinned and pointed to the picnic. "Well while we're here lets enjoy this picnic your friend poofed up."
Adam laughed at the idea of calling angel power poofing things up.

They talked about a lot of things. Heaven, Hell and how his grades were doing. Kate purposely joked.
Adam just laughed.
He never realized he could see his mother when he was still alive. 'Well I'll have to wait to die naturally. Michael will probably make sure I die that way' he thought.
Kate was eating a sandwhich when she looked at him.
"Well, now that we talked can we talk about Michael."
Adam lifted his eyebrows, but said sure.
"He's cute isn't he" Kate said with a grin.
Adam started to choke on his sandwhich. He knew what she was refering to. Something she said she would never talk about unless started by Adam.
Him being gay.
FLASHBACK TIME
A fourteen year old Adam Milligan came home to find his mother making dinner.
"Hey mom" he called out.
"Yes sweetie" she said. Kate Milligan was wearing one of those housewife dresses with an apron.
"I have something to tell you and you may want to sit down" he said pointing to a chair.
Kate sat down and told him to continue.
Adam took a deep breath and exaled.
"I will tell you, but promise me we will never talk about it unless I bring it up" he said with desperation in his voice.
Kate nodded.
"I...I...I'm gay."
Silence followed and when Adam was finished he ran to his room. The door locked when he entered his room.
The next day which was a Saturday, Adam came down and saw a breakfast plate ready for him. His mother must have went to the hospital for work. There was a note next to the plate.
I still love you
-Mom
Adam couldn't help the tears that fell.
END OF FLASHBACK
"Mommy..."
Kate knew about the awkwardness with Adam when it came to guys. Even after Adam came out he never talked about it. Only when he brought boys home did he talk about it.
"C'mon Addy, you have to admit he's cute"
Adam looked down and really thought about Michael. His dark hair, green eyes and muscular build. He wasn't cute. He was hot. Adam wasn't sure if it was blasphemous to say that. Especially towards the Viceroy of Heaven.
"Yeah...he's cute" Adam said
Kate would have said more if Michael didn't appear.
"Adam it is time for your mother to return to heaven" was all he said.
Adam turned to look at Michael almost demanding an explanation.
"Adam, surely you think someone will notice a personal heaven empty."
Adam sighed and said goodbye to his mother.

Adam woke up. He looked around his room and saw Michael knocked out on a chair. 'I guess taking a soul out of heaven takes a lot out of an angel' Adam thought.
He crossed the room until he was infront of Michael. He was snoring a bit. It was cute.
'Damn it, mom' Adam thought.
He blames his mom for putting the cute idea in his head. He also blames her for his now growing attraction to the archangel.

How was that?
