Isabella's POV

I looked at Harry with disbelief written all over my face. What did he mean by,

"We're going to fly back", was some jet going to pop out of nowhere and we hop on and fly back to my flat or what? A million things were running through my mind and I guess I blanked out because Harry waved his hand in front of my face asking.

"Hello are you alright?"

"What, uh yeah, just thinking." I said, looking around for what might be taking us to my flat and I didn't find anything.

"Here grab on." Harry said, extending his hand out for me to take. Again I looked at him with disbelief, I know he said he was an angel but where were his wings? I shouldn't ask but I let it slip anyways.

"If you're an angel, where are your wings?" I questioned looking over at Harry, he straightened up, taking a deep breath.

"You may not believe me but here goes nothing. An angel's wings can only be seen after the mortal has gained to trust the angel. If the mortal never trust the angel then the mortal will never see the angel's wings." He said, looking at me dead serious.

"Okay well how can you fly without your wings? Don't you need them or do you use pixy dust?" I said, I wasn't convinced of what he told me.

"Ha-ha real funny and I can show you pixy dust if you want me to." he said sarcastically.

The next thing he did took me by surprise. Before my eyes he was gone only leaving sparkling dust floating in the cool winter air. My mouth fell agape. Seconds later I felt someone's hot breath fanning my neck, sending chills through my body.

"Don't make fun of me, you have no idea of what I'm capable of doing." Harry, whispered close to my ear, before I could say anything back, I felt my feet leave the ground. I looked down in panic and fear of falling.

"I'm not going to let you fall." He whispered, reading my mind.

He tightened his grip around my waist and I looked around in awe as the ground below us quickly zoomed by. The lights of the cars making it look like I was looking at the stars, not vehicles quickly zooming by. He let me hold his hand so I was no longer underneath him. I feared that he would let go and that would be the end, but something told me that he wasn't going to let go.

In minutes we were back to my flat. Harry slowly lowered us to the ground till my feet came in contact with the pavement. I was glad, I liked the ground better.

"Thank you." I said, looking at the ground.

"You're very welcome." He said, sending me a small smile.

"Would you like to come in?" I offered, motioning to the door.

Something told me to trust him, to stop being so scared of him, to start looking on the bright side of things, not the bad. I never understood why I saw the bad in everything, maybe it's because I've been through a lot and all I've ever known was the dark. Everything bright or happy in my life always got ripped from me. In a way I was afraid to let Harry in, afraid that he too might get ripped from me. He seemed like a good guy, just has some stalking issues, but like I said, something tells me to look past the dark and find the light. Harry's low voice broke me from my thoughts.

"I guess I could for a few minutes."

I led him to the door quickly, shuffling up the icy steps, unlocking the door then going in. The warm air hit my body, warming it instantly. I took off the heels I was wearing, feeling relief after doing so. Harry took of his boots, sitting them right beside mine, along with his coat. I went over to the kitchen asking him.

"Do you want some hot chocolate?" I said, peeping my head around the corner, until he came in the kitchen where I could see him

"Sure." I made both of us a cup of steaming hot chocolate, setting them down at the counter. When they were done I carefully sip on mine, Harry doing the same.

"So since I have a feeling you're not going to be leaving me alone anytime soon, tell me some things about yourself." I said, looking at him with my eyebrows raised

"Uh, there's not much to tell." Harry said, I could see straight through him.

"Angels aren't supposed to lie" I whispered.

"Who said I was lying?" He said, standing up and putting his cup in the sink.

"Come on, Harry, we all have a long life story to tell." I noticed his face fall as I said that, I must have hit a nerve.

He closed his eyes hard then reopened them; "The problem with mine is its just not very long." the words fell out of his mouth and that's when I realized it; The pieces were starting to make sense now. Harry's an angel, Harry's life was cut short, he's dead.

"I am." his voice broke my thoughts.

"Harry I'm so sorry-"

"Don't be." his voice barely audible.

"But how..." I trailed off.

"How I'm talking to you? I'm standing on earth when I should be burning in hell!" He calmed down and finished "Because I got a second chance, but only if I would protect mortals and never-" he cut himself off he looked deep in thought.

"Harry are you alright?" I said touching his shoulder he quickly turned his head towards me startling me at first "Yeah I'm fine, sorry I just got a mind message."

"A mind message?" What the crap? Was he part vampire now or something?

"It's where different angels can send messages back and forth to each other in their minds." He said,

"There are more angels like you?" I questioned.

"Yes, many of who you would never know it, though they look and act like regular people." He replied.

"Oh cool, so it's like texting?" I said looking at him with one eyebrow raised.

"Sorta just without the phone."

"That's cool."

"Yeah, I guess it's one of the ups of being dead." he chuckled at his own joke and I laughed too.

"So who were you mind messaging if you don't mind me asking."

"The lads." he simply replied.

"The lads?" I asked confused.

"Yeah they're like my brothers, they've been there with me since..." he trailed off.

"I know." I said "Could I meet the lads?" I asked changing the topic.

"Well, I don't know..."

"Please!" I begged, giving him my best puppy dog face.

"Okay, just not now, they're on a new assignment." Harry said, giving in.

"Assignment?" I asked, I sure was asking a lot a questions.

"One of the boys were given a another girl to watch over." he said

"Oh my gosh, it makes sense now you're-"

"I'm your guardian angel."

Harry's POV

Me and Isabella stayed up talking about different things, just trying to get to know each other better. I've never had gotten this close to a mortal since the day I died. It's nice to be able to talk to someone as sweet and kind as Isabella. I know at times she asks things that I just can't possibly answer, because they would frighten her or she would think wrong of me. She's very open to me and I like that but what she doesn't know is what she's telling me isn't anything I didn't already know. I know it probably sounds creepy but I literally know everything about her. I know since she's being so open she's going to expect me to be just as open and I know what questions she wants to ask but she's just afraid of me telling her no and that question is how did I die. I don't want to tell her how my death went like. She doesn't want me to know that she's never dated anybody before, but I already know that she hadn't. I'm afraid if I do I might lose her, I may very well be her guardian angel, but that doesn't mean I can force her into not being scared to death of me. I mean, if I were her and she knew what kind of person I was, I would stay as far away from me as possible. Just because I'm an angel doesn't mean I don't have a dark side. At times sometimes I wish I was never given that seconded chance but then again I wouldn't be sitting here in front of Bella. She truly is beautiful, a kind person that never did anything wrong, yet she still lives the hell she calls life. That was always one of the things I never understood. Why would God let good souled people suffer things like Bella did. Like her being in a car wreck and she lives, but her father dies right there before her eyes. Or her brother the next closes thing she had left of him. Why did he have to die like that? Why did she get stuck with probably the worst guardian angel ever? Why? I asked myself. I noticed I had been talking to myself for quite some time now and Isabella was now fast asleep with her head leaning on my shoulder. l carefully picked her up bridle style, carrying her to her room down the hall. Once in her room, I gently laid her down on her bed, pulling the covers over her.

Before leaving I kissed her on the forehead saying "Goodnight, love." I started walking towards the door but was stopped by a small voice.

"Will you lay with me?" her small voice spoke just loud enough for me to hear. I know I shouldn't but she didn't need to stay here all by herself.

"Yeah I can if you want." I walked over to her bed , moved over making room for me. I slipped my long body underneath the warm covers and I noticed Bella started to shiver so I asked her "Are you cold?" She turned looking at me saying "Just a little." I scooted closer to her, pulling her body closer to mine, I know I would probably make it worse, considering I am dead but I guess to Isabella it didn't matter, because just a few minutes later she was fast asleep.

Isabella's POV

I woke up in the middle of the night in an empty bed, shocked that Harry would do that, but then again it is my life and it's pretty sucky most of the time, so why wouldn't this happen? Something or should I say someones, caught my attention. Out of the corner of my eye I quickly turned my head to my window to see not one not two but five figures standing in front of my window. A gasp left my mouth, in fear that they were rapists or something, but one let out a chuckle and I knew then exactly who it was.

"Harry?" The one figure moved coming closer to me until he stopped at my bed, then zooming up to me now hover over me and said "Yes, love"

"You scared me, I thought there were rapists in my room..." I said.

"Nope, just me and the lads." He replied, the lads oh yeah I moved my head around a little bit so I could see the lads. I couldn't see much considering it was pitch black. "Turn on the light." Harry spoke, looking over his shoulder. A few seconds later the light came on, three boys looking about the age of 19 stood in front of my bed, but I thought Harry said there were four? "Didn't you say there were four?" I questioned looking at Harry now.

"Yes I did, the fourth one is in the other room." he said, grabbing my hand pulling me from the bed the three boys smiled at me, one had black hair, tan skin very attractive if I say so myself. The one beside him has brown hair styled in a quiff, very cute and the one on the end had kinda a buss cut. They were all very handsome.

"Well this is Zayn." Harry said, pointing towards the one with dark hair.

"And this is Louis." Harry said, referring to the one in the middle.

"And that's Liam." Harry said patting Liam on the back.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Isabella." I said, waving gently at them.

"So you're all angels too?" I asked the boys in front of me.

"I see Harry, told you about us." Louis said.

"Yes, he did." I replied.

"Well I had to, and she would have found out sooner or later." Harry said, looking over at Zayn, just then I heard something hit the floor in the other room followed by a giggle that sounded like Leah's.

"Oh lord what has she done now." I said, walking out of my room, the boys following close behind. When I reach the living room I see a broken glass on the floor but that's not what shocked me the most. Holding Leah in his arms is a slim male with blonde hair and ocean blue eyes.

"Hi." the male said, stepping over the glass and walking towards me with Leah in hand.

"Hey." was all I said before Harry interrupted me.

"This is Niall." this must be the other boy Harry was referring to. Leah giggled again for what reason I have no idea. Niall looked down at the girl in his arms and smiled.

"Wait a minute, if you're the other boy Harry, was talking about and if you were the one that got the assignment then you're Leah's guardian angel." I said, not quite believing myself, Niall looked at me and said.

"I am."

me, Leah and the boys talked till the sun came up, asking lots of questions like are you really all Angels? How did you get back to earth? Can other people see you? It got quiet for a moment till I asked another question that seem to get there attention.

"Since you two are our guardian angels then doesn't that mean we're in danger?" Harry seemed to freeze up and wouldn't make eye contact with me, I knew something was up.

"Harry, please tell me if I'm in danger." I begged and after a few seconds he finally looked up from the ground and said,

"You are." I froze up even now I knew that was coming.
