[A/N:] Sorry to clarify the last couple lines in the other chapter... It was
Joan who thought she saw God... but still Faith who knew she was being watched. You'll see why later on. Italics are thoughts from the characters.. I finally figured that out.
Oh... this might have some Faith and Adam thing going on but don't worry. ADAM AND JOAN PREVAIL! It's just a roadblock in their relationship along
the way.
Heehee... and maybe there's something cooking with God and Faith... She is his
angel anyway!!
Reviews are always appreciated. =)
Back to the story!

Faith knocked on Adam's shed and smiled as he looked up at her whilst he stopped welding a piece of metal into art.
"Faith, what are you doing here?" She pulled out a notebook from her bag and handed it to Adam.
"You left this at the table yesterday during lunch. It had your address inside so I thought I might as well drop it off before the weekend began in case you needed it."
Adam pulled off his welding helmet and grabbed the book. His hands brushed Faith's and he tried to hide his smile by turning around and putting the book down on his table.
Faith seemed unfazed by their touch and riffled through her bag before finding some keys. "Well now that you have your book, I'll be going." Faith turned around to leave but Adam's hand grabbed her arm and held her back. She turned around to face him uneasily and he grinned. Adam leaned in close to Faith's face, but before anything happened he replied, "Thanks for doing this."
Faith nodded slowly and felt Adam's grip loosen. She waved and walked down the street a couple feet before a cute teenage boy wearing a tan jacket and a bemused expression descended upon her. "Troubled Faith?"
Faith shrugged and wrapped an arm around God's waist. "Joan hasn't come around yet has she?" God sighed. "You know as much as I do."
Faith smirked at God and rolled her eyes. "Somehow, that doesn't seem true." God faked a sob. "It hurts that you don't trust me." Faith pushed God playfully away and fiddled with her hands while he stuffed his hands in his pockets, a nervous habit he had while he was in human form.
"God... You know, I still wonder why you made me an Angel, and not a human." God looked at Faith suddenly. "I would've thought it obvious Faith." Faith raised an eyebrow and shook her head. "Well, in due time you'll find out."
Faith let out a deafening laugh. "No rush though. We DO have all eternity."
-------------------------------------
Joan watched with a piercing gaze as Adam walked out of art, laughing about something with Faith. "What's she got that I don't got?"
Grace looked at Joan for a minute. "Well... she talks to him."
Joan shot her death glare at Grace. "EEEVERRYBODY'S A DARN HYPOCRITE!"
She threw her hands up in exasperation and rocketed off toward her locker before venturing off to lunch.
Adam noticed Joan's quick exit and with questioning eyes, he stared at Grace. She knew what he was thinking and her eyes moved to Faith. Adam looked at where Joan disappeared off to and then to Faith and put the pieces together. As they both approached Grace, Faith turned around nervously and noticed somebody or something move out from behind a pillar and almost invisibly moved into a classroom.
Oh God... help me now. He's back for us. And he wants me.
