Baron sat reading, again. Muta and Toto had become increasingly worried, but could do nothing.

And so, they went about their daily activities. They hadn't had a client since Haru, and that had been five years ago, when Haru was sixteen. Up until two years ago Baron would go with them to visit Haru. Then one day, he suddenly stopped. The fat cat and crow had asked Haru if she knew anything, but she would just shrug and get this sad look on her face.

So they stopped asking. The visits became farther and farther apart, until they only visited about once every few months.

Thinking about this, Muta settled into his bench and was about to start reading his newspaper when there was a great flash of light. He covered his eyes with the newspaper to save them until the light died down. Baron poked his head out the doorway into the Bureau. What he saw nearly gave him a heart attack.

Haru was hovering in the air over the courtyard. She was talking to a group of winged creatures. "Angels…" Baron whispered.

Haru turned to her group of angel friends. They had helped her be with her love and she would never forget it.

"Thank you for helping me," she said. Haru hugged each angel in turn. She stopped at Mercural. "I guess that now I'm immortal, I won't be seeing you," she said a bit sadly. Mercural smiled.

"We'll stop by and visit sometime, how about that?" he offered.

"That would be wonderful." Haru said and hugged him again. Mercural pried her off him and held her at arms length.

"Be good, okay?" Haru laughed.

"Of course I will!"

"Don't do anything you're not supposed to."

Haru blushed and punched his shoulder. "Who are you, my father?" she said jokingly.

"Nope, I'm better. Well, you better get down there before your Baron has a heart attack or something," said Mercural. Haru nodded. She blew a kiss to all of them before floating down to the ground. She turned and waved and they waved back then flew up into the sky.

Haru sighed before turning to smile at Baron and Muta, who were staring at her like she was something, well, heavenly.

"Hi guys," she said with a wave. The two tried to speak, but couldn't.

'Chicky looks hot! She didn't look so good before, but now… NO! Don't even think about it, you know how Baron feels about her.' Muta thought.

Baron stared at the cat Haru in front of him. She had always looked good to him, but she looked even more beautiful.

"H-Haru. What happened to you? Wh-who where those, um, angels?" Baron said, regaining his ability to speak.

"My guardian angel Mercural, plus the Archangels Gabriel, Rafael, Michael, Ariel, Uriel, and Azrael. They saved my life when I tried to kill myself -" She was cut off by Baron.

"You WHAT!?" he shouted.

"Let me finish," Haru said calmly. "Like I said, they saved me and gave me three choices: stay in Heaven, come back to earth as a human, or come back as a cat figurine. And as you can see, I chose number three," she concluded. Muta got up and hugged her. He understood that she wanted to be alone with Baron. Good thing Toto was out.

Once Muta had rounded the corner, Haru stepped forward tentatively and put her now-furry hand on Baron's face.

"Baron," she said gently. "What's wrong?" Baron looked away.

"You, you tried to kill yourself. Why?" he asked, his eyes tearing up. Haru put her hand on the side of his face so he would look at her.

"Because, I felt an existence without you was not worth it," she explained. Baron stared into her eyes. She wasn't lying. He took her hand and led her into the Bureau. He sat down on the couch and had her sit down next to him.

"You did this because of me?" he whispered.

"No, I did this for you." Haru put her hand on the side of Baron's cheek. He leaned into the touch and closed his eyes. They stayed like that for a while, until…

"Baron?" Haru whispered.

"Hmm?"

"I love you," she confessed. Baron's eyes snapped open; Haru was looking away from him, afraid of his reaction. Imagine her surprise when Baron pulled her onto his lap and kissed her. At first, she let her arms stay at her side. But slowly, she put her arms around Baron's neck, to pull him closer. Baron put one hand around her waist to close any remaining space between their bodies and his other hand was tilting her head back to get a better angle. And that was how Muta and Toto found them a while later.
