A Vision

Millie woke to find an empty space next to her. She rubbed her eyes and quickly hopped out of bed. She walked into the kitchen to find Teal standing there with a plate in his hands. It held scrambled eggs next to buttered toast.

“Here you go,” he said, placing the plate in her hands with a dimply smile. “Please, sit down,” he said, pulling out a chair next to the kitchen counter. Millie smiled and sat down in it.

“Thank you, but how did you know I was awake?” she said, baffled.

“Here is your apple juice.” He poured it into a glass. “And it’s an Angel instinct,” he said, smiling again.

“Sure it is.” Millie eyed him suspiciously as she drank the juice.

Millie enjoyed eating her breakfast. The eggs were perfect. The butter was spread out perfectly on the bread. She was amazed.

“Where is Mace?” she asked with her mouth full.

“He should be back soon,” Teal said, refilling her plate with more scrambled eggs.

“Should I be worried?” Millie asked.

“No, of course not.” He poured himself a glass of apple juice.

“And how’d you know I wanted more eggs?” she asked.

“Angel’s instinct,” he said with a huge smile.

“Where are Lilly and Lexi?” she asked, looking around her.

“They are both busy checking up on their charges.”

“Why aren’t you?” Millie asked smartly.

“Well, somebody has to watch you now, don’t they?” he said with a wink.

“I suppose somebody has to keep me out of trouble. Thanks for making me breakfast,” she said with a smile.

“No problem, Millie.”

Mace came through the door with a bunch of red roses. “Here you go, my love,” he said, kissing her cheeks.

“Oh, wow,” Millie said as her cheeks became rosy.

The flowers were wrapped in green paper, which made crinkly sounds as Millie held onto them tightly. They were beautiful—almost as perfect as Mace.

“Thank you so much,” Millie said, planting a kiss on his lips.

“You deserve them, my beautiful girl.” He kissed her some more.

“Oh, would you guys get a room,” Teal complained.

“You’re just jealous,” Millie said happily.

“Sure I am.” He rolled his eyes.

“Where’s my breakfast?” Mace asked Teal.

“You don’t get any,” Teal said with a half-smile.

“Oh, we shall see about that.” Mace launched at him.

Teal moved, but Mace pounced on him. Both of their wings broke free from their skin. They flew around the house, narrowly missing everything. Millie was amazed. They both looked so happy. It would have been a perfect moment, until Millie thought about the Fallen who were after her.

“You okay?” Lilly said, startling Millie, who was staring through the glass into the backyard.

“Yeah, I’m fine.”

“You sure about that?” Lilly said in a caring voice.

So far, Millie had found Lilly to be kind and thoughtful. She was like the mother Millie always wished to have whilst growing up. Wendy was a good mother, but somehow she had put up a wall in-between herself and Millie.

“I just keep on thinking about Mace. What happens if he gets hurt over me? He wants to be with me, and the only way he can truly be with me forever is to fall.
