“Grace?” the guardian angel whispered as her glow dimmed. “You gave me a name?”

Josh was starting to look uncomfortable, which I could understand, since he couldn’t see her and it looked like I was yelling at him. Lips pressed, I glared at the glow over the table. I refrained from pointing a finger at the stubborn angel, but just. “Grace—”

“I’ll go with him,” she said, her glow briefly becoming brighter. It was meek and mild, and she shocked my next words right out of me. “Madison,” she continued, “if you get me into trouble, I’m going to be so mad at you! I’ve never been a guardian before. You’re my first charge, and if I mess this up, I have to go back to sensitivity training for the living.”

I stared as Grace shifted a bare three inches to move closer to Josh.

“I’ll stay with him,” she said, her voice flowing like liquid.

Josh was watching my stunned surprise with an inquiring look. “What just happened?”

Puzzled, I straightened. “Uh, she’s going to stay with you,” I said, and he exhaled in relief.

Eyebrows high, he leaned back. “So…we’re going to wait?”

I nodded, much to Grace’s relief. “But not any longer than tomorrow,” I added, and she bristled, if the orange sparks she was shooting out meant anything. “If Barnabas or Ron doesn’t show by morning, then I’m going to call Kairos out. Take his amulet.”
