Walls are built to keep us safe until they're crashing down.

"Are you sure," I asked Mari as we were standing on the edge of the plane.

"I'll see you at the bottom babe," she smiled.

I watched her and her instructor leap from the plane, her letting out an excited screech. I smiled at her and turned, nodding at my instructor. We jumped from the plane. It was the most exhilarating feeling in my life. I felt like I was on top of the world and I was flying.

I looked over and saw Mari, she was so happy, so joyful. I felt the instructor tap my shoulder, telling me to pull the cord. I did so and our descent slowed down. We finally got to the ground and I saw Mari staring at the sky, a familiar sparkle in her eyes. I wrapped my arms around her waist and she turned to me, the smile not leaving her lips.

"Thank you Jay," she said.

"Anything for you my little blossom.," I whispered, pressing our lips together.

She smiled against my lips before pulling away. We got back to the room and changed out of the wind suits and what we had showed up in. I grabbed her hand and we walked to the car together. We were both still on an adrenaline high.

"You didn't have to do it Jay," she said.

"I wanted to, I wasn't going to let you do that alone. I want to be with you," I said.

"I love you."

"I love you too."

I turned the car on, I had a plan for how to spend tonight. Alex had already picked Josie up and she was going to stay with him for the night. I was going to take Mari out to dinner. Not only that but I had also bought her the dress she had been wanting for a little while. She was going to look so beautiful in it, not that she didn't look beautiful all the time.

I'm in love with an angel who's afraid of the light. Her halo is broken but there's fight in her eyes.

I pulled into the driveway and looked over at her. She smiled at me, she was so adorable. Her bright green eyes were shining brightly as the bright red hair fell into her eye. She had her hand in front of her mouth as she giggled at me. She was doing the sweater paws thing which was utterly adorable to me. I leaned over and kissed her cheek. She blushed softly; her face matching her hair.

"Babe, when you go inside go into the hall closet. Go wear what's in the bag and then we're going out to dinner," I told her.

She nodded eagerly before running out of the car. I got out after her. I got in the house with enough time to see her eyes wide staring at the dress. She turned to me smiling happily. I returned the smile and walked up the stairs.

I changed from my skinny jeans into nicer pants. I pulled on a red button up and a skinny black tie. I walked out of the bedroom while tucking in my shirt and saw Mari, who had changed in the bathroom, standing in the kitchen with a skin tight black dress with a scoop neck. It wasn't too short but because she was so leggy it was a little above her mid thigh. She pulled her heels on , turning around to look at me.

"You look amazing Mari," I said.

"You do too Jay," she smiled.

I took her hand and led her carefully to the car. I saw her shiver a little as she tried to pull the skin tight sleeves over her hands. I took off my leather jacket and put it over her shoulders. She happily accepted the jacket. I leaned over and kissed her, getting her bright lipstick on my lips.

She laughed softly and got a napkin from my glove box to wipe off my lips. I started the car once she was done and drove to the restaurant. Her eyes widened as she saw the parking lot. She grabbed my arm tightly and kissed my cheek. I didn't bother wiping my cheek off, I was happy to have her lipstick on my cheek.

"I can't believe you got a reservation here," she said happily.

"I would do anything for you. You should know that by now," I said.

"I love you so much."

"I love you more."

"Not possible."

She leaned over the center console attaching our lips. I carefully laid my hand on her jaw as she kissed me. She pulled away, her eyes were just as bright as they were when we were teenagers. I would give anything to be a teenager with her again. I would do it all over just to be with her. I loved her more than anything in the world. She was my world.

I'm in love with an angel, heaven forbid. Made me a believer, with the touch of her skin.

Notes

I had an idea guys, and a cute chapter because it's a cute song to go with it. By the way the concept of love is a motif, so you're going to see the word a lot. I know this isn't a long chapter but I tried and it's as long as it's going to get.
