Back from Paris Phil returned the Sky-ak to the garage and he began to walk Keely home. When he walked out to the back yard he saw Keely sitting on the swing. Not moving just… thinking. She looks so beautiful Phil thought. Keely did look beautiful. The light from the moon shone down on her making her blonde hair shine with brilliance, her green eyes seemed to sparkle and her skin looked like it was made of white gold. He quietly sat down beside her afraid that if he even took a breath his angel would fly away. The shift in weight broke Keely away from her fantasy and bringing her back with Phil. She laid her head on his shoulder.
"I had an amazing time tonight," Keely said looking into his brown eyes. He laid his head on hers and took her hand lacing their fingers together. She smiled and stood up without letting his fingers leave hers. She began to walk home with him right beside her. To Keely, Phil was her protection. He always came to her rescue whenever danger came too close but now it just wasn't enough.
"What's with the face?" Phil said as he looked into her eyes.
"What face?" Keely asked looking back into his.
"That one"
"I'm just thinking." Keely pulled him to the tree in front of her roof. It was Phil's secret entrance to Keely's room when it was late or when she sneaks out. Keely released his fingers to she could climb up the huge tree to her roof. Phil grabbed her waist and hoisted her up to the tree limb above. He climbed up and helped her get to the roof. Phil made his way up and they both stepped through the window. She put her index finger to his lips and told him to stay were he was. She walked down the stairs. Phil could hear her telling her mom she was home and that Phil had made it home okay too. Then after saying good night Keely headed back upstairs. Phil was lying on her bed flipping through a random fashion magazine skimming though different articles and adds. Keely laid beside him. He turned his head and smiled at her then he went back to flipping through the magazine again to hide his rosy cheeks. She was blushing too. She got up only to turn the lights off forcing Phil to close the magazine. She laid back down beside him. Phil brushed a piece of blonde hair out of her face and behind her ear. He ran his fingers though her hair as he watched a smile dance on her lips. He guided her head to his chest. Once Keely got situated she draped her arm his waist intertwining her fingers with his. Phil could feel her breathing slow down and sleep crept over her body and pulling her in. Before she completely drifted off to sleep she looked up at her guardian angel. She was ready to tell.
"Phil…" Keely whispered.
"Yea?"
"Do you want to go and get so coffee… with me… sometime?" Phil looked down at Keely and their eyes met. It was a perfect mix of trust and seriousness.
"I would love to Keel." Phil said as he ran his fingers through her hair again. He kissed her forehead and watched her chest rise and fall slower and slower until she was asleep but Phil couldn't sleep… he had too much on his mind. Does she mean it? Is it just as friends? Or is it something more? These question rattled in Phil's head until he became too tired to think. He wrapped his arms around the sleeping Keely. Finally his thoughts stopped moving and he was totally relaxed. He kissed the top of Keely's head.
"Good night Keely Teslow, " Phil said. "I love you". He pulled her as close to him as possible and pulled a blanket over her shivering body trying his best not to wake her up. He couldn't bear to see this angel wake up from her slumber. She looked to peaceful to be real and yet Phil was there holding her in his arms. He was so afraid to let her go but he was afraid to hold on fearing that he would crush her delicate form. Dawn was coming fast so he finally decided to put it of until morning and finally get some sleep.
Briiiing. Briiing. Keely shot up from under Phil's arms and grabbed her phone. Phil was instantly woken up.
"Keely wha…" Phil was cut off by Keely's finger.
"Hello? Oh… hey Via… busy today…" she looked at Phil and he nodded his head to show that they had something planned.
"Via bad news… yes me and Phil… I dunno lemme ask… he's helping me pick out an outfit for our plans today…. Ok hold on" Keely covered the mouthpiece of the phone
"Phil… wanna go shopping?" Keely asked with a smirk on her face. Phil nodded his head then laid back on the pillow behind his head. He had only gotten three hours of sleep… it was going to be a long day.
"Okay Via we'll meet you in an hour ok? Bye." Keely returned the phone to its base and got up.
"Keely what are you doing?" Phil asked rubbing his tired eyes.
"Getting ready be right back…" she ran into the bathroom across the hall and changed her clothes.
"Ready to go?" she said looking at Phil. "Wait… we need to stop at your house… your clothes are…"
"Yea I get it Keel…"
