Axel loved the sound of his name when she said it, it gave him slight goosebumps. He stepped out of the Jeep, but walked a bit away from the girl, smiling sadly.
"You know, all this is entirely unnecessary. Watch." He said, lifting his foot and tugging the glass out, then turning so Dawn could watch the skin heal together by itself.

When Axel walked away from me a bit, I lifted an eyebrow in confusion, wondering what he had in mind. Once he told me to watch, I did, with pure curiosity. As he tugged the glass out of his heel, I winced, hoping it didn't pain him. I was about to ask why the heck he would do such a thing while I was just about to take him to my bathroom to clean the wound up.
Until, I saw something that made me bl.ink once. Then twice. And three times for good measure, to see if I was just imagining.
My fingers came to my lips as horror etched in every feature of my ex.pression. "That just... Healed. All by itself." I murmured, backing away, tears brimming at my eyes. He did want to eat me! He was going to chop me up into bits, since he already got the stupid girl to believe him when he said he was hurt. It was probably a fake wound and everything. Either that, or a real wound that he seriously just healed with out touching it in mere seconds.

"Dawn!" Axel cursed himself under his breath for doing that, but he knew it would have happened one way or another.
The angel ran after the girl, stopping only when she closed the door. He hung his head and rested against the door, catching his breath. He should probably just walk away, leave the girl as she was and hope she forgot all about him. He'd find a way to get his wings back without scaring anyone else. But that would make him a quitter, and whatever pride he had left wouldn't allow that, so he knocked lightly at her door.
"Dawn. Listen to me. I didn't mean to scare you. I just...I'm sorry." He sighed and retreated, sitting a good distance from her door and pulled his knees up to his chest, resting his chin on one of them and wrapped his arms around his legs. Why was he so utterly stupid and careless? Anyone would have been scared. He didn't know why he'd thought she wouldn't be. She probably thought of him as a monster, a blood-thirsty beast that would kill her as soon as she stepped foot outside her door.

Sweat seeped from every pore on my skin. Swallowing, I heard footsteps running to the door. It was Axel. Here to kill me and chop me up into little bites to eat me. Tears streamed down my face in pure fear as I watched the door, waiting for him to bang it down with some inhuman strength.
But, instead, a soft knock came to the door, following a genuine soft voice. I swallowed again, nervously, hesitant steps making my way back to the door.
I came to the door, putting my hand on the door knob and opening it just a crack so I could see through. There was Axel, my big monster, curled up in a ball, looking sullen.
"Are you going to hurt me, Axel?"
I whispered, keeping only enough space between the door and the doorway to let one eye look through. He made any move to hurt me and I'll close the door. My fingers clenched the door knob, waiting for him to look at me to see if I could see blood thirsty eyes.
"What are you?"
I added, my voice staying at a whisper. I couldn't help it. I feared him. The image of his heel healing right in front of me was etched in my mind and made me shiver. I swallowed nervously again as I waited for his answer, my one green eye that he could see through the small space I held out the door staring back at him.

Axel stood and held out his hands, palms forward as he did when they met on the road. He didn't move, though, hoping she'd come out.
"I wouldn't ever hurt you, or anyone for that matter. And...I'm not sure I can tell you exactly what I am. I think...I think it would violate my...'contract'. I can tell you, however, that I am not a monster, and all I want to do is protect you."

Oh my gosh. He's an a.ssas.sin. Or a spy. He was going to hurt me. Somehow. My breathing hitched. The use of the word 'contract' made my heart speed fast for the first time. Swallowing, I opened the door just a little more, showing my whole face, my hazel eyes trained on his to see any sign of evil. Or harm.
I ran a hand through my long brown hair, feeling torn. He seemed so helpless when I first met him. Should I let him in? Groaning, I opened the door, cocking my hip to the side and placing my hand on it. "You can't come in until you tell me what's going on."
I said through clenched teeth. He can't possibly think I'd just say 'Okay' to his 'No' at telling me what he was. I saw something no human would ever believe! I still didn't believe it.

Axel sighed, running a hand through his hair. He thought on how to explain it to her in a way that wouldn't offend or confuse her.
"Dawn...Do you believe in angels?" He finally asked, gazing up at the sky.

His question caught me off guard. He seemed much safer and I wished he would already threaten to kill me already. But, instead, I felt a pull at his calmer air. I walked through the door way, arms crossed.
"Of course."
I said, lifting an eyebrow but letting my fear ex
pression soften.
"What does that have to do with you?"
I asked, already afraid of what I'd hear though I already had a crazy, unbelievable idea.

Axel returned his gaze to Dawn, a sad smile on his lips.
"And, would you believe me if I said I a--was one?" His smile faltered. He knew she would say no, he knew she'd most likely call the insane asylum on him, get the crazy police to take him to the 'happy farm'.

I stared at Axel for a long time. He called himself a angel? I mean, obviously, angels were real and could come to earth and stuff. But I always imagined them to be almost invisible, choosing to be seen when they wanted to, and with white robes and halos and wings... I blinked and looked back at him with a speculative look. "If you really are a angel, where are your wings?"

Axel slowly shed his shirt, turning until he faced away from her and showing her the scars where his wings used to be.
"They took them from me. Sent me to earth and told me I could earn them back if I saved someone's life...I'm not sure how to even start going about that." He sighed and turned back around to face her. "I'm still not entirely...human, I'd guess, and that is how I can heal so fast."

As he started shedding his shirt, images of him taking me inside and forcing me to do unspeakable things came to my mind and I backed away. That was until he turned around, long, big scars on his back, making me forget my fear. I was closer to him now, and I could easily reach out and touch one of them. My breathing hitched, and I couldn't help myself. My finger tips just barely brushed against the scars, and immediately I wasn't by my apartment. All I could see was a bloodied, dead angel, and Axel - with wings! - standing over him, bloodied too but not dead. The second the vision came, it went. I gasped and stepped away from Axel.
"You killed an angel? How can you do that if you are one?"
That's kind of like asking if someone is a human, how can they kill another human? But still, with angels, it feels different. They're supposed to be perfect, beautiful beings. And even though the idea that Axel surely was beautiful was etched in my mind, he didn't seem so perfect. He seemed ragged like his clothing. And reserved.

A single tear wound its way down the angel's cheek, the deed now fresh in his mind.
"It was an accident, the demons had tricked me into trusting them. They'd said that the angel had gone rouge and tried to turn against one of the others, that I needed to put it down before it killed someone. So, I followed the angel until it was alone and...killed it. The arch angels found out and...well, here I am." He stepped away from her, putting his torn shirt back on. "And if you want to keep your sanity, please don't touch the scars again."

I blinked when he stepped away from me and put the shirt back on. Obviously, I wanted to keep my sanity. But I also wanted to touch his scars again.
"How did I... See that?"
I said, referring to the visions,knowing it was because I touched his scars but still not sure how that works. I believed everything so far, so I think it'll be safe to let him come inside. Sighing, I said as I started backing towards the door,
"Alright, you can come in. We should talk more about this inside anyways."
I wanted to know everything. I was a curious one.

OOC//: Omg yay. BIC//: Axel shook his head, not entirely sure himself. He didn't understand why she still trusted him, after what he'd done, but he was glad. Maybe he had a chance at earning his wings again.
He turned, following the girl into her apartment and gazing around, taking in the furniture. He couldn't remember the last time he'd been in a house, but he did know that some of the amenities she had here, he didn't remember.
He didn't remember much from before his death, he figured. He couldn't even remember the date he died, or how he died. It was like trying to look through murky water when he attempted to remember.
Suddenly, his thoughts cleared for a moment and he saw his death, replayed in his mind's eye. He saw the silver flash of a knife, he felt the sharp, short pain of the blade digging into his throat and being pulled across quickly. He winced, rubbing the spot, now feeling the bumpy skin of a scar that he hadn't noticed before.
Turning back to Dawn, he sighed. "And what more is there to talk about? I already told you, I was kicked out of Heaven, ended up here, and now I need to get my wings back. I wish I knew how to do that, though." He trailed off into a frown.

[[ :O Yayyyyy, we're starting this again. <3 ]]
I closed the door behind him, all of a sudden feeling nervous again. What was I doing, letting him into the house? Maybe it was pity. But still, it was crazy to believe everything he was saying. I muttered to myself like it was still kind of unbelievable. I believed in angels. I believed in demons. I didn't believe that one was standing here right now. Too much information in one setting, if you ask me.
"Tell me how I saw that."
I said again, crossing my arms and leaning against the door; green eyes glaring at him. I felt like something was off. Something was wrong here. Was this some big joke? Will friends come out of the closet now and start laughing at my being so close to believing?
Or. Maybe I did believe, and the idea of letting an angel stay the night would give me some brownie points for my fate. Who knows what was going on in my head now.
"How..." I tried repeating the question, looking at his back as I imagined where the scars were. "How does an angel get kicked out?" I said with a laugh, like this was all ludicrous. "You're. An angel? Why..."
I ran a hand through my hair, knowing he already answered everything I asked. It was just crazy to believe. "How long have you been kicked out?"
I asked, though by the looks of his clothing, I could guess it was a long time.
[[I couldn't remember what it was he already answered and what I was planning on for her to ask. |D ]]
