Lucky number seven! Darn you guys are so lucky I am feeling generous today! I got to see my favorite teacher at B&N and I got to buy three new books. I hope you guys are liking the chapter, because I am wasting my reading time to write this thing for you people. My friends tell me I need to 'savor reading the book' because I normally read it all at once, so you can thank them, too for the fact that I am writing this fanfic! Anyways, I appreciate everything that you guys have done, and a special thanks to aliz833 for putting me down for an author subscription!

Anyways, how Patch reacts to Nora's little resurrection…

Becca F. owns everything

Without further ado… CHAPTER SEVEN!

Chapter Seven

NPOV

I gasp as I feel my soul re-connecting to my body, and I blink my eyes to adjust to the sudden reality of Earth. Gabriel had done it! I was once again alive! For all eternity… with Patch. Patch comes into my line of vision, and before I can stop him, I am lifted into a gigantic bear hug.

"If this is a dream, nobody pinch me, I want to live this one through." He murmurs, squeezing me tightly.

"N-not a dream" I choke out "a dream come true"

Patch pulls away from the hug, finally allowing air to flow to my lungs "Angel, y-you're alive! How?"

"I made a-" I start but Patch cuts me off, pulling me into another bear hug and saying "Never mind, it doesn't matter! All that matters is that you are safe, and here with me." Patch captures my lips in his, kissing me gently.

Euphoria. That is what I felt when I heard my angels little breath of air. She was awake! She was alive! I knew she must have had made some deal with the angels, and I wanted to know, but later. She was mine. All mine. I had my angel back, and I couldn't be happier. I pressed my lips to hers, and she kissed me back gently before pulling away. "I made a deal with the Archangels Patch." She blurts, closing her eyes. I look at her curiously "What kind of deal?" I ask carefully.

"I get to stay alive, with you for all eternity as long as I don't sin, and confess when I do." She says, looking over at me as if she's afraid I'll never forgive her.

"I'm not mad angel. I am just glad you're here, forever. With me" I whisper, moving in to kiss her.

"I can't have sex until I'm married or I can't live here" she blurts, and this time I jerk away from her. What the Hell! She had pledged away her virginity to be with me?

"Don't be mad Patch. It was the only way that I could live with you again." She pleaded, going for my hand. I let her catch it, but I didn't respond. My mind worked double time, moving quickly through the jumbled thoughts that Nora had created.

"Then marry me, Nora" I say, turning to her. Her eyes widen in shock. "Marry me, and never look back. You and I love each other, and I never want to be apart from you. I get jealous every time someone else gets to spend time with you. Nora Grey, marry me."

Her lower lip quivers, and her eyes form tears. She withdraws her hand from mine, looking at me weirdly.

NPOV

Patch only wanted me for the sex! That was all he was waiting for. I thought he was different, but apparently he's just like every other guy in the world. I felt broken inside. "We have all of eternity, and we've been with each other for two years, and you chose the moment I tell you I can't have sex until I get married to ask me?" I whisper, a single falling from my bleary eyes.

PPOV

I must sound like a bitch. "Angel. My god, I am so sorry, I don't want you to think that I only want you for the sex. I love you more then anything in my life. You were the one that makes my heart jump, my body quake, my head race. Sometimes I think that when you touch me, I feel something. I love you, and I was destroyed when I thought you died. It tore me apart, and when you came back to me, I was euphoric! I had never been happier in all of my life. I was just caught up in the moment. I love you, and I never want you to feel pressured. I just want to be with you forever, and now we can be, and I don't care if it takes you a year to say yes, or a million, all that matters is that you and I are together."

NPOV

Patch was so sincere. I smiled at him lovingly, and started crying. Upon seeing my reaction, he looked worried, but I reassured him by saying "no, I-I love you too. I am so happy." Patch's arms wrap around me, and I wrap my arms around his neck, hugging him furiously. "I think you and I have both had enough excitement for a while, why don't we head on back to the hotel." He murmurs me. I nod, feeling exhaustion was over me. Patch picks me up and walks me to his jeep , placing me inside and buckling me up before moving back to the drivers side of his car. We both look horrible, covered in blood and torn clothes. I have dark circles under my eyes, and I am pale instead of the rich tan I had had earlier. I guess dying takes a lot out of you.

I closed my eyes and reached over to look at my side. The skin was torn and fleshy looking. It was a deep gash, but it wasn't bleeding or anything, so I figured we were good. I leaned back, groaning lightly as pain shoots up my side from the knife wound. Patch takes my hand in his, and holds it for the entire car ride.

When we finally arrive at our hotel, it is close to 4 in the morning, and I am exhausted beyond measures. Patch looks tired, too as he moves over to my side of the car, unbuckling me and once again lifting me into his strong, capable arms. He carried me into the hotel, and he must have mind tricked the people because not one of them looks up from what they are doing.

When we reach the room, he moves his arm to cradle me in only one, using the other to open the door. Once inside, he lays me on the soft down of the bed, grabbing my bag and fishing out an oversized t-shirt and a pair of slacks. He silently peels off my tattered, bloody clothes, and slips me into the slacks and t-shirt. I loved Patch, and I was glad he was there, because it would have hurt to change. He tucks the blankets around me and crawls under them himself, finely dressed in similar attire to me. I curl my body into his side, his arms wrapping me in a light hug.
"Yes" I murmur to him quietly.

"Yes?" he asks, kissing my forehead lightly before pulling pack to look at me.

"I will marry you" I murmur before falling asleep.
