Dear Angel - Chapter 6


A/N: Okay, please don't hate me for this chapter! It wasn't easy to write for me!


(Will's POV)

I ran as fast as I could until I reached the stair case that led up to the roof. I panted heavily as I took a seat on the ground, desperately trying to catch my breath before stepping outside into the night. I guess it's to be expected after running up nine full flights of stairs in less than a minute. I had chosen the stairs because there was no way in hell I was going to stuck in an elevator. How romantic would that be, right?

"Not tonight. Not going to happen", I thought to myself as I looked down at my watch and saw that seven o'clock was quickly approaching, "Six fifty-five", I whispered softly as I lifted myself off the ground and walked up the last few step that brought me to my destination.

The stair case to the stars...

With only five minutes to spare, I reached inside my pocket and pulled out the blind fold that My Anonymous left me in the small package. I smiled hard, because I couldn't believe this was actually happening. Today was the day that I was finally going to meet my prince.

With on hand on the door knob and the other hand, holding the blind fold, I took a deep breath and step outside. I took in my surroundings and noticed that the only thing that lite up the roof top was the moon from above and the stars in the sky. If someone would have told me that this is what heaven looked like, honest to god I would have believed them without second guessing myself.

It was just so beautiful...

I checked my watch again and saw that I only had a few seconds left before my prince was to be expected. My hands trembled as I took the blond fold and placed it over my eyes and securely tied it in the back of my head and placed both my hands on each side of my body. So I waited...counting down the last few seconds until he arrived.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two...", And suddenly, I head the door slam behind and I knew that I was no longer alone. He was here. My prince...

My heart thundered rapidly inside my chest as I heard foot steps heading in my direction. I swallowed hard and tried to keep my breathing calm so he wouldn't notice how nervous I actually was to meet him.

I could feel the presence of my prince approaching me. It was a weird sensation to be aware that someone was nearby even though you can't see them.

Soon enough, the footsteps stopped and I could feel the heat coming from my prince as he leaned in closer to my ear. His breath tickled my ear as he spoke, "Nothing is better than when you first see an angel - your angel - and knowing they love you back", he took a step closer and lifted his hand up to my face and ran his fingers gently over the side of my cheek, "God, you're even more beautiful up close", he whispered softly.

His words sent a shiver up and down my spine as each words rolled off his lips.

I slowly placed my hand over his, pushing my cheek slightly down in the palm of his hand before speaking, "I truly believe the personality and the soul is what makes a person beautiful, it does not always have to be the physical appearance."

"True", he added with a giggle, "However, if I were blind, within my heart I could still see the beauty that is you. Cause beauty is not seen through the eyes, rather the heart."

"Well in that case, If a blind man can see the beauty that is within, then why is it that people with sight are too blind to see it?", I inquired and waited for him to answer me.

"My Angel...It is not as simple as it sounds", he acknowledged and pulled his hand away from my face, "You say this now but..."

"But what? Please help me understand why it's so hard for you to tell me who you are?", I asked as I took a step forward and reached out and grabbed his arm and pulled him flat up against my body, "Tell me what you're so afraid of? Are you scared that I wont like what I see?"

"It's complicated", he sadly admitted.

"Then uncomplicated them", I insisted, "Please. I can't live another day not knowing who you are. I love you and nothing is ever going to change the way I feel about you. I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you."

"How can you be so sure?", he asked, "What if I am the last person you ever expected to fall in love with. What happens when you realize that you don't love me for the person I am on the inside?"

I took a breath and lifted my hands up and cupped both sides of his face, "They say never to judge a book by its cover. It's what's inside the cover that counts. I would never judge you for who you are for the way you look. I fell in love without even knowing who you really are or what you look like. That should count for something, right?"

I could feel him shaking underneath my hold, "Why do you always have to be so perfect?", he asked and I swear I could hear his heart beating rapidly through his chest, "You make it very hard for me to say no to you."

"Say yes then."

"You are very persistent, my Angel", he murmured softly.

"Only because I know what I want", stating the obvious, "Call, me vein, but you are what I want. So, please...Let's not deny ourselves of what our hearts truly desire."

"I am very sorry, my Angel. But my fear of losing you is strong than my fear of you accepting me for who I am", he explained as he slowly pulled my hands away from his face, "I must go", he sighed deeply and started to leave.

"No! Wait! You can't leave me", I said loudly. It almost sounded like begging, "I just got you and already you are running away for me."

"I am not running", he paused, "I am simply making things easier for you."

"How can you be making things easier for me by leaving me here alone without you?", I sobbed into the blind fold, "You told me not to be afraid of the unknown, then why not see where this may lead?"

"How I wish I had your strength. You are afraid of nothing, my Angel."

"Me?, I'm scared of everything, I'm scared of who I am, of what I'm feeling right now. But most of all, I am scared of walking back inside that building and never feeling for the rest of my life, the way I that feel when I'm with you."

"Do not waist your tears on me, my Angel", he whispered and I could feel his arms wrapping themselves around my waist, "A man is never worth your tears. And the one who is, won't make you cry."

"If that's the case, then I would rather shed my tears forever, than not having you."

"Oh, Angel...", he said as he pressed his fore head against mine, "You have me...", he breathed out.

"No, I have only part of you", I explained, taking a deep breath before I continued, "Now, I...I want all of you."

He hesitated, "I'm sorry, my Angel. All I can offer you right now is part of me. Asked you to respect my only condition."

"I do respect your condition. Do you have any idea how hard it is for me to not pull off this blind fold? Do you? It's taking everything that I have inside me not to."

"I do...I just...I must go...", he scrambled for words as he pulled himself out of my arms, "Just know that I love you, my beautiful Angel. No matter what..."

Suddenly, I felt his breath against my lips, as the gap slowly closed between us and our lips met for the first time. The feeling of his lips pressed up against mine was more than I ever imagined it could possibly be.

It was perfect.

I moaned at the lost of his lips as he slowly pulled away. I could hear him breathing deeply, "Nothing is more beautiful right now, than you wearing only the moonlight and my kisses", he quoted.

"In that case", I slowly started and leaned in closer towards him, "You should kiss me so I can remember what if feels like to be wearing your kisses underneath the moon light."

And so he did...

He reached out and slowly wrapped his arms around me before pressing his lips on to mine once again. At first it was slow, gentle, like he was almost afraid that he would hurt me, but as soon as I began kissing him back, he responded by pulling me even closer, and kissed me with so much passion that I nearly blanked out. I felt his tongue run across my bottom lip begging for permission to enter. I opened my mouth slightly to let our tongues slowly explore each other. Both equally lost into each others kiss, he ran his fingers through my hair and accidentally pulled off the blind fold from my eyes. Before I realized what had happened, I heard his plea for forgiveness, "I'm so sorry my Angel", he said before pulling away from me completely. My eyes were still closed and the last thing I heard was the sound of his foot steps running away and the sound of a door slamming hard.

I opened my eyes, only to find myself once again, alone...

Standing on the roof top beneath the stars...

Without my prince...
