The Angel In Black

After Michael left, you stared at the green sweater and finally gave in. You cut the tags off with a knife that Michael had on his bookshelf and slipped it on. It was soft and you felt beautiful. Even considering where you were. The skinny jeans were a bit snug, but they fit. You strode into the bathroom and gasped at your reflection. The green set off your eyes, skin, and hair. It was a gorgeous color on you and the sleeves gave it a more renaissance feel. The skinny jeans did wonders. You ran your hands through your hair and bit your lip. You didn't recognize yourself.

You got lost in the various halls trying to find where everyone had gone. Each hallway was a different color scheme but you couldn't for the life of you figure out the reasonings. The one you were wandering down was an indigo carpeted hall with golden walls. There were golden crystal chandeliers hanging overhead and silver candlesticks hanging on the walls. It was beautiful, yet there was something eerie about it. Like someone was watching you. You turned around to see Luke walking behind you. "Hello Y/N. I'd really like to apologize for this morning. It was rude and I'm sorry." You stopped and smiled at him. "You're not like the others are you?" You asked. He shook his head and shrugged. "I dunno. I am but I'm not. If that makes sense." He said somewhat confused. You nodded. "I get it. You are like them, but there are parts of you that go against it?" You tried to explain. He smiled and his wings ruffled. "That's exactly what I mean. It's just...weird I guess." He said stuffing his hands in his pockets.

"So I already know you're much nicer than the other...what do you call yourselves?" He chuckled. "Technically we're fallen angels. But we call ourselves dark angels for more effect." He said jokingly. You nodded. "Dark angels huh? Ok. So you're nicer. What else makes you different from the others?" You asked walking beside him as he led you down another empty corridor. "Well I wasn't always a dark angel."

He didn't say anymore after that. When he found the main hall, you saw more and more dark angels. Each one more intimidating than the last. Different colored wings and eyes distracted you as you walked by. Every dark angel had a main color which was on their wings and in their eyes. Then they had a secondary color that was outlining the edges of their wings. They were all unique. But you never saw another angel with two different colored eyes. Luke kept close to you the whole time like something would happen if he wasn't there. Eventually, you saw the familiar purple and black wings that belonged to Michael. He was wearing black skinny jeans, shocker, a black v-neck tee, and a leather jacket. His hair was spiked up in all different directions and his wings still took you by surprise.

"Michael I found her." Luke said keeping his hand on your arm. Michael turned around and and looked at Luke's hand on your arm and his eyes turned violet. Luke knew what that meant and let you go. "What took you so-wow. Um...I like the sweater." He said blushing. A dark angel blushing. Not something you thought you'd ever see. You looked down at yourself and straightened out your sweater. "Thanks. I like it too." You said smiling. You swear you saw his lips twitch before the room went quiet. His eyes went black and all the dark angels turned towards the entryway, where they pulled apart to create an aisle. Michael pulled you next to him and held on to you tightly. You looked up at his face and his jaw was set and his eyes were locked on the entryway. You followed his gaze and didn't see anything at first.

Then he walked in. He wasn't like the other dark angels you've seen. He didn't have two colors. He had one. Black. His wings and his eyes were pitch black. He was either really beautiful, or really frightening. Judging from Michael's expression, you were leaning towards the latter. He walked with an eerie grace, lighter than air. He was inching closer as Michael held you tighter. You held your breath when the boy stopped in front of you. "Michael, who is your friend?" He asked looking into your eyes. You couldn't look away but you wanted to. Michael cleared his throat and his eyes were still black. "This is Y/N. The one we talked about." He said coldly. The boys' eyes flicked to Michael and he smiled. "Yes. I see. Nice to meet you Y/N." He knelt down and kissed your hand. "It's a pleasure to finally make your acquaintance. I hope Michael has been kind to you." He smiled a smile that didn't feel right to you. You nodded and he looked back at Michael, the smile disappearing. "Remember what we talked about." He whispered and winked. Michael's eyes turned purple.

The room began conversing again, but in hushed tones. Michael loosened up a bit but kept his grip on you. "Michael? What's going on? And why are you squishing me?" You asked quietly. He let go of you just a little but still held your arm. "Sorry. Nothing's going on. Everything's fine." He muttered. "If everything's fine, why are your eyes saying different?" You countered. He sighed and rubbed his temple. "Must you be so difficult?" He asked closing his eyes. You'd had enough. "Yes Michael. I need to be difficult because I'm in another world where I might possibly die." You snapped. He looked at you and his eyes turned green. "I didn't mean it like that Y/N. I just.... I don't know what to do with you." He said softly. You scoffed and threw his hand off of you. "You can take me home." He didn't try to stop you. He let you go.

You tried to find your way back to Michael's room but you were hopelessly lost. You groaned and punched a wall. "Whoa. Someone's a little spitfire." You turned to see the black angel. "How can you tell?" You said sarcastically. He walked closer and you tensed. "May I ask why you take anger out on walls?" He joked. You sighed and looked at your bloody knuckles. "Better than a person right?" You said. He chuckled and it sent a shiver up your spine. "I never fully introduced myself. I'm Ashton. Tell me all about your troubles." He said with a smirk and his eyes flashed red.
