Chapter 3

Ami ran after Cale in fast pursuit. "Cale! Wait up!" Cale stopped and turned around. "What are you?" She faced him ready to take anything. "All right. I'll be honest. I'm an Angel from Heaven. Several Angels like myself wander around the world helping others." Ami understood some of it now. "And fight Youma?" Cale laughed. "That's a hobby of mine."

Ami walked towards him. "Why are you at the hospital so much?" The wings reappeared on Cale. "As an Angel, I have a duty to escort the souls of those who die in a hospital to Heaven." Ami felt her heart beating faster. She knew she wanted to be with him. "Cale..." She walked up to him and placed his hand on his cheek.

Cale looked down at her. He didn't feel anything because Angels couldn't experience the emotion known as love, unless he became human. His train of thought was interrupted when Ami threw her arms around his and hugged him. Cale gently placed his arms around her waist, as well and encirling his angel wings around her as if to protect her.

Ami sighed as Cale held her in his arms. She felt safe with him and didn't want to leave this moment. Soon, Cale let go and turned around. He started walking off when Ami clung to him. "Please don't go!" Cale closed his eyes. "I'm sorry Ami, but as an Angel, I can't experience love." He continued walking and soon disappeared, leaving Ami alone.

Ami was heartbroken. A minute ago, she was in the arms of someone she had admitted she loved him. Tears formed in her eyes and she started running home crying. Cale watched her from outside her room as once again she flung herself on her bed and cried her heart out. He turned and walked off heading over to Tokyo Tower.

Once at the top, Cale looked down at the city of Tokyo. His mind was in confusion as to what to do now. "What should I do?" He looked up as the sun was setting. He decided it was time. He stretched his arms out. "Forgive me master for I must love..." He leaned forward and started freefalling down to the street.

When Cale came to, blood was seeping from his hands and his head. For the first time, he was bleeding. He straggered to his feet and started walking to Ami's apartment. Pain was shooting through him as he kept walking. He knew the way, being guided by some unknown force.

It was raining by the time he arrived at the door to her apartment. He rang the bell. Blood mixed with rainwater was dripping down his face. Ami opened the door and was puzzled. "Cale?" Cale nodded. "It's me." She stepped aside and let him in. As soon as he walked in he colapsed. "Cale!" She helped him up and onto the couch.

Cale rested as Ami cleaned his wounds and bandaged them up. "I thought Angels couldn't bleed." Cale took her hand. "I'm no longer an Angel. I have sacrifice enternity to be with you." Tears formed in her eyes and she hugged him fiercly. "Don't ever hurt me like that again!" She said as she softly cried. Cale put his arms around her as a new feeling came over him. Thiis is what love felt like. It was everything he had hoped for.

She stayed in his arms for a while before he cupped her chin in his hands. "I love you Ami." She gave him a warm smile. "I love you to Cale." He leaned his head down and pressed his lips against hers. Ami sighed and became lost in the kiss.

Two hours later...

Ami and Cale layed entwined on her bed covered in a sheen of sweat and exhaustion. Ami nuzzled her head in the crook of his shoulder. "Don't leave me." He smiled and kissed her forhead. "I won't as long as you promise not to leave me." She smiled as she was drifting off to sleep. "I promise." They both fell into a contented sleep. The last things that were muttered were, "When shall we tell the others?" Ami snuggled closer to him. "Later." He nodded. "Later..I love you." Ami smiled. "And I love you."
