Return

It was time to go.

I had spent the day with Gerard, but the silver pendant around my neck was burning my skin, which meant the angels were ready to take me home. I needed to leave, find somewhere private and it would happen.

So I put on my dry clothes and tried my best to say good-bye to Gerard. I would see him again, but I couldn’t let what happened be a common occurrence. If the angels found out what I did…I’d be crucified. And we take that very seriously.

Gerard held both my hands and kissed them both delicately. “Will I see you again?”

“You will. It might be a little while, but you will. I’ll find you.” I brushed his hair from his brow and gave him a soft smile. “I have some things I need to take care of.”

“And you’re sure you’ll be all right?” His eyes were concerned.

“I’ll be fine. You worry too much.”

He scowled. “Sorry. You’re right. I know. Can I…uh, call you?”

“I don’t have a phone.” The expression on his face made me laugh. “But I promise, I’ll be in touch as soon as I can.”

He nodded. We were nose to nose again and I knew he meant to kiss me. I didn’t want to deny him, but I knew I should. But I didn’t. This time the kiss was sweet, soft and tender. “I don’t want you to think I’m trying to crowd you, because I’m not.”

“I don’t think that.”

“But, Gerard said sternly, “I am also not interested in a one time thing. At least not this time.” He touched my chin. “There’s something very special about you, Lucy. And I intend on finding out what it is.”

I smiled at how sweet he could be. The rough and tough man with a rock hard body covered in tattoos. I could see now what God and the angels meant. Humans were complicated, but there was innate good in them. Boy, had I learned my lesson.

“I’ll miss you when we’re apart. Good-bye, Gerard.” I leaned in and kissed his cheek. Then I left my jacket in my hand.

It was sunny out so I walked a few blocks before turning into a park. Once I was beside a tree and there was no one around, I touched my necklace and just like that, I was gone.
