AN: Hi! I gave this chapter a few days to rethink but I didn't have time to turn it the way I wanted to.

I'm not so pleased with this and I'm sorry if I disappoint you.


Emily's internship had gotten better. She knew what to do and when to do her thing. She helped more people with several creative ways which Aria was truly impressed. She also learned to fly. Of course she hadn't had her wings yet but Spencer had been giving advices and showed her some techniques.

For thirty days since the first ride, Spencer always picked Emily up on time. If not early. She let Emily control the flight, tell her which way to go. Some days, it ended up at destinations both of them knew nothing about and some days it ended up at a beautiful hill where they could watch the sunset.

And the kiss, it got a little warmer, lingered a little longer and brought them a little closer each time. Like today. A beautiful day when the kiss landed a bit so close to Spencer's lips.

Spencer's hand already held Emily back, her lips couldn't want to kiss Emily more. But she did nothing. The closeness, the desire. They were killing her but she remained their position. Emily's warm breath gently brushed against her skin as her eyes never left Emily's lips.

Just one kiss.

Spencer couldn't be sure of that. It wouldn't be just one anyway. And that was risky, because she was a demon. That physical contact could influence Emily in many ways. Good or bad she hadn't figured it out yet and she didn't want to gamble. Her little angel was just an intern, things would be better if she was already an angel. That would balance their powers and there wouldn't be any harm for Emily.

I should wait.

It wouldn't be too long. Just three more months.

Damn it.

Spencer reluctantly stepped back, created a reasonable space between them. Her hand, however, still holding Emily's. She gave it a small squeeze before finally let it go.

"Goodbye, Spencer." Emily smiled, already knew what Spencer was about to say next but that didn't annoy her anymore. In fact, she was looking to hear it more and more each day.

Spencer quickly got back to her cool self. Tilted her head, she smirked.

"Goodbye, little angel."


Spencer was running late today, Emily figured after two hours of waiting. She thought she should call but Spencer might be busy with her important stuffs. Emily didn't want to bother her. Out of options, the intern decided to just wait. She made up her mind. Even if Spencer didn't show up and she missed the last public train, she would still be waiting. She didn't know why. She just wanted to meet Spencer. That was all. The flights were a great bonus but she had stopped looking for them for a while. She was looking forward to spending time with Spencer.

Sometimes in her working hours, Emily's mind often wandered to the idea of her. And at the end of the day, she got to kiss her. It was her thank you gesture at first but it turned to something different. She could feel it. And she wondered, what would Spencer's lips feel like? Also that day, the day when Spencer got so close, what came through her mind? Did Spencer feel what she felt or this was just a one – sided feeling? Should she act on it?

Oh no she shouldn't. Things were so nice right then. Emily wouldn't want her silly heart to ruin anything.

Just like this is fine.

As Emily's inside monologue came to an end, the wind got weirdly stronger out of the blue. She looked to the wind's direction to find two persons in black hoodies was flying toward her, and not so far behind them, was Spencer, looking furious.

"RUN! EMILY!"

Though she didn't know what was going on, the girl ran as fast as she could. However, those with wings were faster. One of them got to her, made her trip to the ground of the sky. Spencer quickly caught the other one then threw them away from Emily.

When Spencer was flying to Emily's spot, that breaker stopped her, put a chain around her and tried to hit her with a mental stick. The intern had to deal with the other breaker by herself. While she was still on the ground, the man hit her head with the same looking stick. Emily fell back, everything turned black in front of her eyes. The scene angered the demon but she couldn't do much, the chain creaked as she tried to break free. The breaker held her tightly, forcing her to stay.

The other knelt down next to Emily, locked the cuffs on one of her wrist. As he managed to lock the other, Emily opened her eyes, used the cuffed hand to punch him in the face. She got up, kicked the man's lower part then used the mental stick to hit him back.

Spencer and the other breaker stunned. The demon blinked, gathered herself quickly, turned back to hit the breaker in the face with her head. He immediately loosened his hold on the chain. Spencer got out, kicked the man and before she could punch him, he disintegrated. Spencer looked up to see Aria and Hanna had arrived, both held a silver gun. They nodded briefly before turned to Emily.

Her breaker was already defeated, lied on the sky ground. Spencer ran over, checked Emily from head to toe.

"You okay? Hurt anywhere? How's your head?"

"I'm fine, just a little dizzy." Emily replied rubbed her head.

"That's not fine, we should take you back to –"

"Oh my, my hand really hurts. Spencer, look!" Hanna said, waived her couldn't – be – healthier hand at Spencer's face.

Spencer pushed it away, didn't bother to look at it once. "You'll be fine." Attention had never left Emily.

"Okay, wow! Aria, see that? I feel so betrayed."

"But you're okay." Spencer protested, finally took her eyes away from Emily.

"Well, but you didn't even glance at her." Aria joined Hanna's side. They loved to tease Spencer since they didn't have a chance for a really long time. Or at all.

As they were arguing, Emily just stood there, smiling. It was nice to receive such good care. The way Spencer asked, her concerned eyes, the worried voice. It was kinda worth to be hit on the head. Speaking of which, why were these breakers after her? She was just an intern. Emily looked back at the breaker on the ground as her thoughts went there and her heart instantly skipped a beat because he wasn't there anymore. He had stood up, pulled out a silver gun and pointed at Spencer.

Emily was never a target. Spencer was. They caught her because they knew Spencer would save her.

His finger was on the trigger and the other three were still clueless.

Emily's mind went blank.

She did the only thing her heart knew.

She hugged Spencer as the man pulled the trigger.

The loud explosion brought the girls back. Hanna and Aria immediately shot the man. He disintegrated but it was too late. The bullet went all the way through Emily's back, left a red spot which was getting larger and larger in front of her chest.

Emily didn't disintegrate. She was neither an angel nor demon.

They could have saved her.

If only the bullet had gone anywhere but her heart.

The poor intern slowly shut her eyes, gave her last breath, didn't have a chance to say anything. Hanna quietly pulled Aria's head on her shoulder, wiped away tears on her face.

And Spencer, she couldn't find a word. Her hand was shaking with both anger and sadness. Her eyes had widened since the moment Emily hugged her till then, when the girl was motionlessly lied in her arms. She looked so peaceful, as if she was just teasing Spencer. And Spencer believed that. She denied the fact that Emily was gone. She put her palm on Emily's cheek, shook her gently.

"Wake up, Emily."

Emily didn't respond.

"Little angel?"

Nothing changed.

"Please wake up!"

Spencer's voice broke but Emily stayed the same. The red flower on her chest darkened. She was really gone. Spencer couldn't bear this scene. Her heart throbbing against her chest as she clenched Emily's collar tightly.

"Don't you want to graduate and get wings? C'mon, wake up! They will give you bad grade if you keep sleeping."

"..."

"I'm not gonna take you home every day. You have to go by yourself."

The more she talked, the more she cried. Her tears dropped on Emily's shirt, mingled with the red flower.

For the first time in their lives, Hanna and Aria witnessed the sadness of a demon. They sat silently, hearts shattered into pieces.

...

The surroundings became quiet as time went on. But it was too quiet. The angels noticed the wind had stopped and there was no noise from the street anymore. They looked away from a crying Spencer to the dark night, trying to figure out what was going on.

Everything had stopped. Except the three of them.

A spotlight from right above their heads lightened their place. Hanna and Aria stepped away, left room for the light to touch Emily. Her body slowly being pulled up but Spencer held her back.

"What are you doing? She's not dead!"

There was no answer. The light did nothing to protest nor release Emily back to her. Her friends put their hand on her shoulders, convinced her it was time to let Emily go. As Spencer was defeated with reason. Emily's body drift away from her hands, went half way through the light then stopped. A ray scanned through her body, replaced her blooded clothes with new ones.

Her new clothes didn't come with her intern badge anymore. Instead, it was an Angel's one. A pair of wings was also placed nicely on her back. The light woke Emily up, slowly put her down while announcing with a mechanical voice.

"Emily Fields was killed but she earned three tear drops of a demon which according to the rules, the system must immediately give her life back. For the intent to sacrifice her life to save someone else's, Emily Fields has finished her internship, graduated with the highest score. Affect immediately. Congrats Emily."

When that new information finally went through everyone's head, Spencer ran over and dragged Emily into her arms. Her hand disappeared in Emily's hair, kept her close. She already planned to spread her wings and take Emily with her, just in case the spotlight change its mind.

Emily joyfully enjoyed her time in Spencer's arms. This was new. Most of the time it was her who hugged Spencer when they were flying around. She wasn't sure if Spencer liked it or not but she was absolutely sure she liked this one. It was warm and nice. Just like Spencer's hand. So she hugged her back a bit tighter. A subtle smile slipped, being more and more visible on her lips.

It took Emily another three minutes to question this situation. Frankly, if she didn't hear Aria clearing her throat, Emily would take a little more time to ask herself why they were hugging. Turned out, between death and life, Emily had no memory of the announcement from the spotlight. She blinked a few times, loosened her grip on Spencer then narrowed her eyes, confused.

"What's just happened?"

Spencer released her hands, gently caressed Emily cheek before gave her a genuine smile.

"You've graduated, officially become an angel. Congrats."

She pulled Emily's head lower, placed a soft kiss on her forehead. That wasn't a good time to do that because even though she earned a shy grinned and a lips bit Emily, the audiences just found it entertaining. Hanna cleared her throat.

"Ehem. We're angels, too. Can we get some of that? My forehead is ready."

Spencer turned around, unamused. "You two can kiss each other's. Goodbye." She grabbed Emily's hand and took off quickly. Not sure where they were heading but it definitely didn't have Hanna nor Aria.

Stood still at where all the drama happened, Aria turned to Hanna, raised her brow then pursed her lips.

"That… is not a bad idea actually."

Hanna glanced over for a moment then smirked. Her eyes got brighter even in the darkening night.

And kids, that was the story how Hanna and Aria ended up together.


AN: I... was just kidding! But Haria seems nice, huh?
