Right, I am deeply sorry for re-posting chapter 6, but I thought it was a bit too much in detail, yeah?

So this is chapter 7, as you can see :)

Enjoy!

Chapter 7

It was Angel.

I stopped walking and starred at her as she walked towards me.

Tears welled up in my eyes and were threatening to overflow.

I opened up my arms and she ran into them. We stood on the street in each other's arms for what felt like an eternity, until someone asked us if we were okay.

I stood up properly and grabbed hold of Angel's hand then began to walk down the street towards my house.

As we walked, she told me of all the things that had happened in the years that I hadn't been there.

She told me about how she and Gazzy were almost caught by the school, but they used their powers, new and old, to get away without getting captured. She told me about how Gazzy, Nudge and she had tried to get into a boarding school, they had been there for about a month when the school came and found them. And finally, she told me how Gazzy had been taken away by Jeb, as he was the one who was being tracked by the school. He had a chip in his arm just like me, only his was the active one.

This stunned me, I even stopped walking for a few seconds, until Angel pulled me along, eager to see the others.

"So let me get this straight, Gazzy is with Jeb?" I asked as we walked along the street, just down from my house.

"Yeah, but don't worry about them, Jeb said that your mom could take the chip out, or that he could deactivate it or something. Don't worry, Max. He's fine."

I looked down at Angel, she was my baby. I had practically raised her, and here she was, so intelligent and beautiful. I couldn't not believe her when she was so pure and honest.

"Thanks Max. But I'm not beautiful."

"Believe me, you are!" I laughed as we walked up the front drive.

I opened the door and led Angel inside to the living room, where everyone was sprawled out either on the sofas and chairs, or on the floor.

"Guys, I found someone on my way home that I want you to meet." I said, carefully keeping Angel out of view of the others.

They all sat up and looked at me with interest in their eyes.

"Ew, Fang! That is so disgusting!" Angel shouted suddenly.

All eyes flew to the blonde haired girl coming into view next to me.

"ANGEL!" Nudge shrieked, getting up off the floor and running at Angel.

Robin looked up at me and I mouthed at him, that's Angel, baby.

A huge grin split across his face and I couldn't help but feel the room got a little brighter.

In the end, Angel ended up sleeping on the sofa, with no complaints what-so-ever. I love that kid, I really do.

I love you too, Max. Angel said into my head.

Angel, time to go to sleep, and get out of my head. Night, sweetie, I thought back.

Fang and I went to bed just after we had made sure that Robin was down for the night and that Angel was comfortable.

It felt good to have almost all of my family in the same house again.

Before I fell asleep, I prayed that Gazzy was okay, and that Jeb better not have hurt him, or Jeb was going to feel it between his legs.

"Mommy!" Robin shouted from his room.

"What?" I asked, rolling out of bed to go into his room.

"I'm awake." He replied, as I walked into the room.

"Really? You know I thought you were still asleep." I said, smiling at him to show him I was joking.

I picked him up and walked out of the room to see a half naked Fang.

My eyes went wide, then I remembered I had by 3 year old son in my arms.

"Fang, I don't know if you knew this, but there are children in this house. Very impressionable children, go and put on some clothes!" I said, trying so very hard not to laugh.

Fang just gave me an amazing smile then went back into our room and re-appeared wearing a black tank top. What else?

We went down to have breakfast. As we entered the kitchen, we were met by the smells of Iggy's cooking and the sound of Nudge talking away to Angel, who was still under her duvet on the sofa.

There was a knock at the door and all of us looked at Angel, who just smiled from where she lay on the sofa.

I walked to the door and opened it to see three people.

Three people that I had not seen in what felt like an eternity.
