Patch's POV:

Today is just another day. Just another day without Nora and now the archangels were playing with me. They were making me see her. They want me to suffer, but I wouldn't give in to them. I couldn't, I had to stay strong for Elizabeth. You could say I changed. And I would believe you. Elizabeth was my world now. If I lost her too I don't know what I'd do. I couldn't live on… No I wouldn't live on.

"Hey, Mate. What are you looking at?" Rixon asked as his head tilted toward the window.

"Rixon, they're playing me. Ther're making me see things."

"I see dead people…hahaha" , Rixon joked.

"No seriously. I do. I see Nora."

Rixon's face fell. He looked at me seriously. He got a phone out of his pocket and dialed a number.

"Hey babe…Oh sorry… no, I can't come in bed with you right now…yes, I wish I could…", he laughed, "no babe, I need you to watch Elizabeth…No I can't stay with you because you know what that would mean…okay bye see ya in ten".

He put his phone away awkwardly and stared at me.

"That was Vee. She's going to watch Elizabeth, and I'm taking you to meet someone. I think he can help you."

I just stared out the window and looked to see if Nora was there again. I knew she wasn't, but I needed her now more than ever. The angels were planning something and I could feel the world beginning to change. Something wasn't right. The world was shifting into darkness. The doorbell made me jump, but Rixon got to it in super angel speed. I picked up Elizabeth and kissed her cheeks.

"Aunt Vee is going to watch you, ok?" I stared into her eyes.

"fine. But I like Rixy better." She pouted. "where are you going. I don't want you to leave"

Her eyes started to water.

"hey hey hey. I will only be gone an hour pumpkin ",I soothed, "I will miss you more than ever. Can you be good for Vee?" I smiled.

"Fine" , she said.

I pointed to my cheek and she kissed it softly. I smiled and tickled her. He laughs filled the room and it made my smile be real. She was my life. I kissed her one more time and let her down. She walked to her room and started to play with her dolls. I walked into the hallway to find Rixon and Vee tangled with each other. Her hands were in his hair and his were on her butt, pulling her up. There kisses were urgent and passionate and I wished that was me and Nora. I would never kiss her like that again.

"Guys" , I cleared my throught.

Vee looked over at me and mumbeled a sorry. Rixon was grinning and twirling her hair in his hands. She swatted his hand away and asked me where Elizabeth was.

"She's in her room. Don't give her candy. Please be careful with her. There is juice and snacks in the fridge and"-

"Calm down. It's not like I haven't babysat before. Besides, she isn't that hard to entertain and I know for a fact your house has all the safety procedures and stuff" , she smiled and her face sofened, "You're a good father, Patch. Nora would have been happy with you. And I'm sorry I never liked you."

"Thanks Vee" I smiled softly as I watched her walk towards Elizabeth's bedroom. Rixon pointed to the door and I followed quietly so Elizabeth wouldn't hear us.

I followed Rixon to his car and got in the passenger seat. I didn't bother buckling up because I didn't care. My life was worth nothing to me. Rixon buckled up and started to drive.

"So where are you taking me?" I asked.

"Bo's. I know someone there. They might be able to help you."

"Help me with what? I don't need anyone's help" ,I pursed my lips.

"TO GET YOUR GODDAMN MEMORIES ERASED! DO YOU SEE YOURSELF? No? WELL I DO. EVERYDAY, PATCH I SEE YOU CRY. I CAN HEAR THE HURT IN YOUR VOICE EVERY TIME YOU SPEAK AND I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE. I CAN'T SEE YOU LIKE THIS." His knuckles clenched around the steering wheel, as he anticipated what I would say.

"Your right", I said small. That was the only way I could heal. The only other way was if Nora would come back to me and I knew that wasn't going to happen. She was dead. She was never coming back. Maybe it was for the best that I didn't even know her nor have the feelings I had for her.

"Your agreeing with this? You don't want you memories of Nora with you. I suspected you would fight me with this."

"Nora's not coming back, Rix. And you're right. How could I ever get better if she still haunts my memories?"

We drove in silence the rest of the way. As we pulled up to Bo's I inhaled deeply the scent of cigarettes and beer. I walked slowly down the steps and hear the faint click click of Rixon's boots behind me. I walked to bar and ordered a tall glass. If I was forgetting Nora, I'd want to do it in style- Get drunk.

"Patch are you sure about this?" Rixon asked with an oh-no-what-have-I-done type of look.

"Yes, I'm sure," I stared straight forward and took another long swing of beer.
