After all Storm’s meddling in my life, I still didn’t have the courage to release my inner bad girl beat-down on him. Instead, I refrained and cursed him up and down in the silence of my mind. I was grateful he couldn’t hear my private macabre of angry words. I figured this out a few years ago, when it mattered, during our first real hellacious fight.

I recalled, I had just turned seventeen and was very determined to sneak out of the house. It was the first time I had ever thought about doing something so precarious and it was all based on a dare. I was going to attend my first drinking party. There were no plans on my part to get drunk. I just wanted to be seen there by my classmates. How normal is that? In my opinion going to a party was way over due.

No one understood this, not my mother or father and especially not Storm. Of course, he sided with them. Of all people, I thought my personal angel would’ve understood my need to be popular amongst my peers. Than again, Storm wasn’t human, he was an angel. It was his job to make me happy, not miserable. What kind of angel was he anyway? Often, I found myself questioning that.

Storm was flat out determined to keep me from going to the biggest party of the year. I knew he was the one who set off our house alarm, waking my parents in the middle of the night. However, he never came clean with me on that one.

Needless to say, I was caught sneaking out, and was grounded for a month. I swore that I would never forgive Storm for getting me busted—despite, the fact that the police raided the party.

Most of the kids scattered when the police showed up; however, three of my best girlfriends were caught and arrested for under-age drinking. Nuilley happened to be one of them. I supposed I would have been arrested, too, if I was there, but this didn’t matter to me at the time.

I still cursed Storm for weeks and dropped major F-bombs in my private thoughts. Since then, I was certain he could not hear my personal brain-works. If he could, he would’ve already thrown me into the lake of fire years ago for my foul language.

I eventually thanked Storm for saving my skinny butt that night. Nuilley got into so much trouble as a result of getting drunk that night. Her parents had to bail her out of jail, hire an attorney and pay major fines. On top of all that, she was sentenced to three hundred hours of community service. It was a harsh punishment and, in my opinion, far worse than being grounded for a month. I felt a little blessed for having Storm, even if he did, in fact, set off the alarm preventing me from going to the party. He never gloated or rubbed anything in my face. There was no, I told you so’s when it came to Storm.
