A LOVE NOT OF THIS EARTH!
PROLOGUE.

As darkness crept over the pain I could feel myself fading away.........
Chapter 1.

Hi my name Anthony I was 18 and had a apartment to myself I thought of myself as a cool person with light brown eyes and dark brown hair a muscular body and was in the foot ball team I was also the bully of the school I loved to pick on the younger kids who I thought were nothing and had no love or feeling for any one you could call Me stone hearted if you want I would take it well do you want to know what happened to change me well then I will have to tell you my story!

It started on my 18th birthday I had just finished school and was on my way home taking the same rout I did everyday started crossing the street when suddenly I heard a tremendous screeching I looked to the side and saw a huge truck and that was the last thing I remembered! As darkness crept over the pain I began to feel myself slowly fading away......I sat up feeling very light looked around and saw that I was sitting on the road two blocks away from my home, I stood up and saw to my shock that someone who looked very much like me was lying on the ground with blood streaming down his face and all around him were doctors and nurses with medical equipment then I saw one doctor who shook his head and said it is too late

I wondered who he was and why nobody had noticed me so I went over to the stretcher and said “excuse me but who is that boy “It looked as though no one had heard me so I tried again” excuse me what’s going on her” still they ignored me I was starting to become frustrated so finally I got a peek at the boy for myself and to my shock I saw that it was me I was dead! I took a moment to recover then said I am dead! Oh my god I am dead! before I could say anything else or before I knew what was happening I started going through a long dark tunnel and there was a light at the end of it the light got brighter and brighter until I was right in front of it then I heard a voice coming through the light !

”Hello Anthony” said the voice I was startled how do you know my name ? The voice answered “oh I know all about you Anthony I created you”!

I looked dumbfounded not able to speak .then the voice said” yes this is the gates to heaven but we have decided that there are still some lesions that you need to learn so you will not come in yet you will go back to earth in ghost form and there you will watch and make choices and in time you will learn the lessons you need to we will send someone to help you while on earth even it can be a tough place for ghosts”!

Suddenly I found myself on a street that I did not recognize I looked about then saw standing on the other side of the street a man in his 20s he looked in my direction and motioned me over I went up to him and asked “are you the ghost I am to meet or am I alive “?

He smiled a strange smile and said “no you are dead and yes I am the ghost you are to meet my name is Ralph your Guardian Angel and I was sent to be your guide” !

I held out my hand for him to shake and said “how do you do “he took my hand and said “fine thank you“ then I asked “so what lessons am I to learn I mean what must I learn I haven't killed or hurt anyone so what could I possibly learn from you”?

The Angel smiled sadly and said” you may have not hurt anyone physically put spiritually you have been tearing up people’s emotions and hurting them from the inside the lessons you will learn you must figure out by yourself it may take time but it will be worth it in the end you will see but it will be up to you to make the choices I am only to guide you to the place you are to learn lesions at then it is up to you to you to figure out what they are.”

So saying he took my hand and led me to a school building were we went through the wall and into the building” we will wait her “,said the angel I sat down on a bench and crossed my arms “whatever” I said the Angel looked at me and said “so much to learn” shaking his head!

Chapter 2.

The next day the sun crept over the mountains I was surprised that I did not even feel sleepy and tired I had stayed up the whole night talking to Ralph the first thing he taught me was how to communicate with the mind I found I fascinating then he showed me how to move things with your mind which I did over and over again then he showed me how to communicate with people I didn't know why he did that when I was dead and they couldn't see me any way He told me that it had something to do with my lessons and that just made me more puzzled but Ralph would revile no more and I stood staring at him in frustration then I saw through the wall the principle coming I knew it was him because I found out at that moment that I could read minds as well I heard him murmuring in his mind about having to wake up before the other teachers but then said “it is my job as principle to get hear first “ I spent the rest of the hour like that watching all the teachers crowd into the school finding out what kind of teacher they were just by reading there mind and found out that this was a high school as well !

Soon after that the students began to arrive and I read each of their minds as I came into the school so by the time they all came I had separated the poplars the nerds the Athletes and the bullies it seemed like most of the popular kids were bullies I wasn't surprised at that it was like that at the school I had gone to myself but I never thought of me even though I had been popular and a bully was just too proud to admit it to myself!

As I watched from the ceiling there came in last a girl about16 who looked like she had gone through hard times at the school there was fresh mud on her close two purple busies under her eyes where she had gotten punched her hair was a mess like she had gotten pushed around a lot and her hands had cuts all over them and she was caring a torn backpack plus two more backpacks !

And as I read her thoughts I saw that she had been bullied almost tortured into carrying the most popular girls bags she looked so small and delicate that I was surprised that no one not even the teachers had stood up to help her but instead let her get beat up like that “I would have helped her” I said to myself Ralph who had been listening to my thoughts said ”would you really I would think you would have made her carry the bag yourself”!

I looked at him in surprise “why do you think that?” I said angry and surprised at the same time

“Because” said Ralph” from your history that has been written down you have always bullied others to get your way and I doubt you are no better than those two girls who have done this awful thing to this poor girl who looks so helpless that everyone takes advantage of her and the teachers just think she is a careless person and she is too afraid to tell them the truth so she lets them have their way most of the time but you see what happens when she does not do what she is told she gets beaten up now I know you probably don't do things like that but you have hurt many people just as bad by the terrible words that you say so you are just as bad “!He stopped to let me ponder his words I looked back down at the girl and saw her thoughts she was crying in her heart for a friend someone who would treat her like another human someone who would respect her and love her then in her mind she thought” that will never happen so I might as well stop dreaming “and she struggled on with her load She came to two lockers took keys then opened each one shoved a bag in each one then went over to a locker on the fare end of the room looked a moment at her bag sighed and put it in the locker then she ran down the hall toward a classroom! I followed interested to see how things would turn out and how the teachers would react to her I flew to the door went through just as she closed it and went up to the teachers desk to see his reaction in his head I was surprised by what he thought “Dear me she is late again and now has mud all over the place such a mess she has made me ten minutes late such a clumsy girl” ! I was shocked what a heartless man I said out loud I tried to hit him but went right through him I cursed in frustration, then watched as I could do no more the man said to her “Abegal do you have an explanation for this delay and mess” I leaned over to see what she would say her voice which would have been beautiful if not strangled by sobs said in a cracked voice “I fell in a puddle so it took some time to get her”. The whole classroom erupted into laughter even the teacher I saw her trying to hold back her tears I was angry how could these people be so heartless I thought angrily I looked at the girl again then I heard a girls voice in the front of the classroom say “ I hope you dint get your bag dirty that’s the only one you have poor Abi”.She laughed finally the teacher said “enough sit down we have wasted enough time already” so they got work Abigail in the very back seat sitting by herself where she could cry with no one seeing her or laugh at her all to soon the bell rang and everyone went to the cafeteria for lunch I followed Ralph following behind Abigail was the last one to leave and was pushed roughly to the floor when she tried to get into the cafeteria when she finally got in and to the food counter there was hardly anything left so she just took an apple and sat down in a lonely deserted part of the cafeteria I came and sat at the other end of the table and said ” I wish you could hear me I would be your friend and protect you from those bullies” and I knew I meant it this time I sat there studding her She was small short with reddish brown hair and green eyes small mouth that was cracked and bleeding and red rimmed eyes from crying plus the purple bruises she sat there staring at her apple like it would at any moment bite her I sat across just staring at her until the bell rang she got up quickly and left the room as she went out she almost bumped into Aleasha and Angela for those were the two bullies names they grabbed her and she pulled back in fright and I stood behind her wishing with all my heart that I could help her they grabbed her by the arm and said “you carry are bags back home for us or you will be worse then you are now “and so say they roughly threw her to the ground against the locker and walked away laughing ! I was ferrous now I wanted to go up to them and give them a good scare but I didn't even know how to touch something without going through it and if I did throw something with my mind that would only make things worse for her! So I just stood there not knowing what to do I needed to talk with Ralph he would know what to do so I went to him and told him about my problem! He listened carefully and said ” the first thing to do is to attract her attention in a way that will not frighten her like give her a dream or something “”then try to reach her mind and tell her you want to help her and if all else fails you appear to her in a human form of course you would still be dead and a ghost just people would see you as a human and then those girls would be more careful of who they pick on and I would go as your father and get in as a school teacher that would make things a lot easier but first we must try communicating with her try her dreams first tonight”!
Chapter3.
After school Abigail started toward Aleashas and Angela's home she struggled all the way then got there gave them their bags and ran before they could do anything else! We followed her I was very curious to see where she lived it seemed like she lived alone in a deserted part of town I looked about and saw two more ghosts her a man and a woman who both in some way looked like Abigail” yes” said the woman answering my thoughts” we are her parents and we have been trying to get in touch with her but she never seems to answer we want so much to see her happy once again and we are hoping that you can help her she has gotten suspicious of everyone and is not quick to make friends she needs real love and we hope that you can at least get in touch by dreams”. “I promise to do all I can” I said and went into the house Abigail went into the house sighed and winced she took off her shoes to revel a dirty sock as she pulled it off she winced again I gasped her foot looked awful it was scared and bruised and looked like it had been broken she bent forward then groaned in pain she went to the mirror took off her shirt and looked in facing back to the mirror and looked back what she saw made me wince on her back was a long bluish black bruise that went down her whole spine! I could not look at her anymore she looked awful and she was so delicate I really wonder how hard she was thrown against the locker strong enough to break her foot and to bruise her back badly .I really wanted to help her So I watched her as she got ice and took a cold bath then as she came out of the bath changed an hoping on one foot she went to a bed and lay down on her side soon she was asleep so I started my job as well I gave her a dream in the dream she was standing by the road then I approached I told her who I was what had happened and why I was her and that I wanted to help her! She stared at me for a while then said “how can I trust you” then suddenly she woke up She tried to get up but sank back to the bed groining in pain then she said “I must get up if I don't Aleasha and Angela will come her and beat me up worse “So wincing with every move she hobbled to the bath room got more ice tied it around her foot put on clean cloths and went out the door I looked up at Ralph saying “what now “?He answered “it seems like she does not remember the dream it is time to go to plain number 2 but first I must teach you how to move things by touching them so that you can concentrate on communicating with her”! It was easier than I thought to pick something up so I had an Idea I followed her toward Angels and Alesha house when I saw them at a distance and read their intentions I was frantic I had to save her from this So I quickly began to give her little warnings but she didn't seem to hear me and went on I followed her frantic until I had a plain I flew over to Alesha and Angela and went behind them and held both their hands! Abigail hopped over on one foot and said” sorry I am late”! Aleasha and Angela seared and I braced myself “don't mention it” they said and clenched their fists I held down their hands and before they knew what happened I had tied both of their hands together and was holding both of them so they could not lift them they looked startled and then started tugging on her hands when Abigail saw this walked over to them and untied them” No!” I shouted but it was too late they punched hard in the face and sent her spinning on a patch off black ice she tried to get up but fell back down crying in pain I saw through my ex ray eyes that her leg and collier bone were broken! She lay there until one of the girls came up to her kicked her in the ribs “get up” she said “my leg's broken” said Abigail “you broke my collarbone two” !I knew what they would do to that I could bear it no more and said quickly to Ralph “can we go to plan C”?Ralph nodded we both stepped behind a tree and Ralph touched me by the heart I felt the change I felt the gravity and my body but I still was a ghost just in human form I could feel it! I looked at Ralph and saw that he was dressed in a suit and sunglasses “why the sun glasses”? I asked he said “because I am an angel and angels eyes glow”! “I see”! I said he was also carrying a stack of books the perfect teacher and looked like the student I used to be before with a schoolbag and we looked like we had just come from out of town! Then Ralph said “let’s go before they end up killing the poor girl” I agreed I we came out from behind the tree and started running toward then shouting “hay! what do you two think you’re doing “they both looked up then ran away in fright ! Ralph walked up to her and asked “are you alright miss” she groined and shook her head “oh dear he said “well let me take a look” she looked up at him terrified “don't worry “he said “I won’t hurt you I am the new medical doctor”. “Anthony “he said” bring me my medical kit please” .I looked on the ground and there next to me had appeared a medical kit I picked it up and went to him Abigail looked up then she said “have we met?” I smiled so she did remember the dream but I had to go along with the flow so I said” not likely” she frowned and said “it was just a dream but he looked just like you and sounded just like you”! “Really”! I said ,Ralph said” Anthony”!“oh yes” I said and passed him his medical kit he took something out from the kit it looked like little green bottle it said on it leaves of the tree of life! I wondered what that was so I watched as Ralph rubbed the stuff over her leg and foot then he turned her over and rubbed it her back and to surprise and joy I saw the bruise disappear just like that then he sat her up to face him and then rubbed some on her face and the bruises there disappeared as well lastly he took some of it and rubbed on her broken collarbone she gasped and Ralph smiled and said” how do you feel now” she answered in a surprised voice” much better”!” How on earth did you do that” he showed her the bottle and said “with this a few drops of it can heal and cure anything it is amazing and one of Gods miracles “!”Well she said thank you for your help but I must get back to school I am always the last one and late”!”Well come with us” Ralph said” I am teaching there anyway and my son hear is signing up for the school” I smiled and said” yes why don't you come”, I would feel much better if you did I thought to myself ! She smiled a beautiful smile and said” OK.”I sighed in relief and set off toward the school! We got there not too late and Ralph said” I have got to go and sign up he said then he dug into his bag and took out a small bottle and gave it to Abigail and said “keep it I have a feeling that you may need it “!He gave me a warning look and turned and left! As soon as he did she put the bottle in her bag then looked at me and said “my names Abigail what’s yours” “Anthony “!I said “nice to meet you Anthony” she smiled I smiled back feeling warm and fuzzy inside then she said “I have to go to the bathroom there is an empty locker next to mine” then she left no sooner had she done so then Aleasha walked up to me and said “So you decided to be friends with that loser well let me tell you something if you continue to be friendly with her and make her smile I will give you two black eyes or worse just like she has now'' and with that she turned and walked away I was so mad that with my mind I tied her shoe laces together and she tripped and fell hard on the stone floor!! There was silence in the hall as Aleasha stood up then she fell again and children laughed she got up again this time angry everyone was quit then she untied the strings and walked away I got up and went toward the bathrooms worried about Abigail I wondered what they had done to her. There was no one around so I went into the girl’s bathroom there she was hiding in one off the toilets rubbing some off the bottled liquid on one black eye there was another one she had two ! She looked up and hid the bottle when she saw me she said “go away your causing me nothing but trouble by being around me!”I searched her mind to find out what she meant and saw that Angela had given her the two black eyes and told her never to speak to me again or they would give her a beating she would remember for the rest of her life! I was angry those bullies had made me into one off her enemy s and the only way to help her was too leave her to defend herself she couldn't even do that I could tell she was afraid of me so I left and avoided her for the rest of the day at the lunch break I talked to Ralph about it and he said” well let’s see we don't want o hurt her more but neither can we just sit by and let those bullies get to her so leave her alone and only help her if that is the only other option she can be healed much faster now but you are not afraid of those bullies they can’t hurt you your already dead !”He chuckled “the only place they can hurt is your skin nowhere else so you don't need to fear them just keep a close watch on her and she will be fine”!
Chapter4.
The next day I went to school with Ralph we passed by Abigail who was carrying three schoolbags, she looked up and tried to run but couldn't under the weight I looked at Ralph pleadingly He nodded and went over to Abigail she froze he smiled and while she protested picked up the two school bags nodded to me and said “they can’t do anything to me I am the teacher “she gulped and went toward the school this time running with Ralph at her heals! At the school Ralph put the two bags in the locker room and went off down the hall to his class with Abigail staring at him in wonder! I noticed as the days went by whenever Ralph was around everyone was very well behaved even the bullies seemed scared of him he was in no way scary he looked like a regular 20 year old with blond hair up to his shoulders and strongly built but there was something about him some sort of presence that made you respect and fear him I guess that comes with the job of being a Guardian Angel people also seemed to avoid me as if I would become something else if they got to close I guess they could feel a presence as well even the two bullies were afraid of me that is why they were so unkind they were trying to hide their fear by putting on a tough look that made me feel a little better but Abigail still avoid me and I could tell that now it was out of fear of getting me in trouble I had to show her somehow that no harm could come to me but every time I tried to talk to her or get close to her she ran and hide I always knew where she was but left her alone the only thing that comforted me was the fact that she let Ralph near her because she knew nothing could happen to him and that the children and bullies were afraid of him if I could earn that kind of respect maybe just maybe she would let me be close and let me be the friend she always wanted and needed and maybe even more than just a friend that is what I wanted any way! The days went by with nothing changing she still avoided me Ralph helped her carry the bags everyday Alesha and Angela still bullied her as much as possible she used the bottle everyday but it never seemed to run out much to her surprise Ralph told her it was a miracle and she did not deny it she liked talking to Ralph but still avoided me Ralph reassured me that it was only out of fear and that deep inside she really wanted my friendship and a very small part that she didn't know about but would grow in time wanted my love! I was comforted at that thought and every day I waited to be able to show her that she had nothing to fear and that those girls did not scare me and I was much stronger and braver then I looked as the weeks went by nothing happened then one day it happened!
Chapter5.
It happened at the end of the month school had just finished all the children crowed out of the school as always Ralph came out last with Abigail at his side she thanked him for his help and started toward home I looked at Ralph said something to him in his mind he nodded in agreement so I went behind a tree and disappeared so I could follow her I was a bite worried about her So I followed her home then from behind as she came closer to her old broken down house I heard someone come from behind her I turned around and saw Jason the school bully who did everything Angela said I knew whatever he had in mind was not good I went through his mind and saw that he was planning to steal her books replace it with his and then beat her up and use the book stealing as a excuse for what he did! I couldn't let him do it so I waited for the right moment to show myself .he came up to her grabbed her she screamed and tried to pull away but he was too strong for her he laughed grabbed her bag threw down in the mud and roughly threw his bag at her it got her in the stomach and she fell over and was about to hit her head on a piece of broken glass!Now was my chance I got behind her before you could say I do caught her and as I appeared slowly behind her Jason turned pale white and shouted “ghost”! And turned and dashed down the street! Abigail turned and when she saw me she gasped and said shocked” you're a ghost! I” was a bite relived at her reaction I was expecting screaming and running like Jason. So I smiled it was more of a grimace and said” I was hoping not to be reveled in this way but you needed help and there was no one that would help you so I decided to give him a little scare but I was expecting you to run to after all its not every day you see a ghost appear out of no ware or even see one for that matter but it was to be a secret and I don't want this to spread around the school and I know Ralph is not that happy ether” !”Don't worry” said Abigail“no one is going to believe what Jason saw they already think he is crazy anyway and no one will dare ask Ralph anything except about school they are all afraid of him even the bullies and I always knew that you were a little different so I was not that surprised”. “I am surprised a little though I never expected to be saved by a dead person”!”So” I said “are we friends now that you know the truth I could protect you just as well as Ralph could if you would let me and you wouldn't have to worry so much about bullies”. She sat in silence for a moment then said “that would make me very happy and I would love to be your friend Anthony” then she giggled” this is strange I always wanted a friend but I never expected to have a ghost for a friend”! I smiled and laughed “ neither did expect to have a human for a friend” I said .
Chapter6.
The next morning we went to school together as we passed by Angela and Aleshas home they both came out and when they saw us together I sensed murder in their eyes I quickly tied both there laces together and said “why don't you two carry your own bags for a Change they both roared with anger and charged I watched with a smile on my face as they tumbled down the stairs and landed in a puddle of mud!“Come” I said to Abigail pulling her along with me” let’s go before they get up “she nodded and we both ran toward the school when we were out of hearing distance she asked me “did you do that! “I just smiled she laughed and said” now they will know what it is like to get pushed into mud puddles”. Ralph meet up with us as we got to the school and said jokingly “we almost had to send for the Angel of death! what did you do Anthony”?I said” I just tied their laces together and dropped them into a mud puddle”. Ralph nodded and said more seriously this time” please be more careful were people are standing before you do something like that again”! Then he looked at Abigail and said “no bags to carry today”? she smiled and said “no but thanks for all your help anyway you have to guard your own watch don't you”? “anyway now I have someone to watch over me”! she nudged me in the ribs playfully I smiled happily Ralph also smiled his strange smile and said” yes I do have someone to watch over” he said seriously looking at me he said in my mind “watch what you do, do not expose us to much remember we are here in secret “.I nodded soberly I knew exactly what he meant so with that in mind I hurried with Abigail to the schoolhouse! The days went by Abigail never seemed to want to leave anywhere without me she said” she felt safe with me close” and I told her I felt happy when I was with her because then I could protect her from bullies and stand up to themwhich I did Jason never came near me or her again and every time he saw me he would turn whit as a ghost and ran in the opposite direction of coarse no one believed his story about me appearing everybody already thought he was crazy in the head which worked out fine for me and whenever the two bullies Alesha and Angela tried to get close or hurt Abigail I would tie there laces together and they would fall ever time they got near her until they started threatening me again they finally blew my top and I yelled back at them saying” you leave both of us alone or there will be hell to pay “!*Right after I said that I heard Ralphs voices in my head saying cool down you don’t know what you are saying! So after that I just ignored them and Abigail did the same and in the meantime I tried to make her see that the only way people would respect her and stand up for her is if she stood up for herself and didn't let those bullies get to her and that they were just afraid of me and that’s why they put on a tough look then I said you can change all that and bring them down all you have to do is stand up for what you know is right and not let them rule over you. She sat in silence for a moment then said determinedly your right I can’t let them push me around anymore I have you now so I don't need to be afraid anymore!I nodded proud of what I had done to help her she would soon be able to take care of herself and I could go on to the next life the one thing I did not want to do because I was in love with her and I knew she was falling in love with me! The love seed just needed some more time but it was almost there I could feel it I just hoped she would see how much she meant to me when it was time for me to leave I wondered how she would get along without me would she go back to being the girl who always got bullied or was she stronger then that I didn't know but I hoped for her sake that it would be the second one.
Chapter 7.
The next day we walked to the school together as we passed by Angelas and Aleshas house we saw that they had already gone to school probably didn't want to get humiliated again by falling down into mud puddles every time I was around recently they had been avoiding me and only bullied Abagail when I wasn't around but that was only for a few seconds because Ralph would come and they would both run before he could do or say anything I was very grateful for his help and promised myself to find a way to thank him properly .Ralph was there waiting for us at the school gate when we arrived he looked at us both raised a knowing eyebrow and smiled and said to me in my mind I told you so. I smiled sheepishly at him while Abigail looked at us both with a puzzled look on her face and said* would you both like to speak out loud when I am around I can’t read minds or communicate like you can* we both looked at her and I said sorry Ralph just wanted to confirm something with me which he knew for a long time.*that’s right* said Ralph *a very long time*! She looked at us both still puzzled and said will you tell me? Ralph laughed and said it would be better if you found out by yourself! he smiled slyly and walked toward the school. Then she looked at me and said will you tell me I shook my head and said * no Ralph is right it would be better if you found out yourself trust me* . She frowned and shrugged but said nothing as we walked up to the school and went inside. She by now had learned to trust everything I said because it always was right yet I hated having secrets especially from her but Ralph was right if she knew that she was in love with me without knowing it herself things could go wrong and she might try to prove me wrong by denying it until she believed it was much better this way I knew that for certain.
Chapter 8
I noticed something else about Abigail which worried me as the days went by whenever she was with me she would be confident and unafraid to talk back to the bullies but whenever I was not with her and the bullies came toward her she would go back to her weak helpless self. I begin to doubt that she would be fine once I went into heaven I spoke about this two Ralph and just said not to worry and that everything would be fine in the end and that I needed to trust the lord that everything would turn out fine I was comforted but not totally convinced how could she be fine if she can’t even feel safe without me! This thought was on My mind for a while then I let it pass knowing that my lesson was up that I had changed was not the same boy I used to be and it was soon time for me too go so I just tried to enjoy my last days and not try to think of ether because they were both unpleasant thoughts. But all to soon the day came! Ralph came to me at the end of school and said to me* you have learned your lesson and have done a marvelous job in changing someone’s life for the better and for a bonus you have fall in love and have found the true meaning in life and love you have completed your lesson and it is time to go*!I knew I should have been expecting with but the thought of leaving Abigail alone to care and look after herself sent me into such a shock that all I could say was* why now*!*because it is your time* said Ralph!*No I said I don't want to go and leave Abigail all alone it wouldn't be heaven without her* *and God only knows what will happen to her *!*if I have to leave! At least if I have to go give me time to explain to her why I have to go*! I pleaded .Ralph was silent as he closed his eyes for a few minutes then he opened them and his eyes sparkled with an Idea and he said* I will have to speak to the boss about this but he has given you time to say your goodbyes I will be back in twenty four hours be ready*! All I did was sit there to shocked to move then I composed myself got up and left the cafeteria.
Chapter9.
I went out to find Abigail wondering how I was to approach the subject I went out of the schoolhouse and what I saw made me feel worse about leaving there was Angela and Aleasha standing over Abigail who was clutching both legs in pain she had two black eyes as well and I could her both girls saying we promised you it would be much worse didn't we but you didn't seem to want to take us seriously a big mistake I knew they were talking about me and they were still caring out those threats they had given to her they were just waiting for the Right moment then I saw to my horror that the little healing bottle was smashed on the floor it must have fallen when they attacked her! I was so ferrous I did something that would humiliate them for life. I marched over behind them winked at Abigail looked to make sure no one was around diapered then touched them both on them on the shoulder they both turned around started saw no one there there were about to turn around when I grabbed them on the shoulder so they could not move from there spot now they were truly terrified when I saw that they were scared out of there wit I started appearing slowly before them they stood frozen with fear to freighted to say anything and when I was sure they couldn't move out of fright I tied both laces together went behind them and poked them they gave a howl and tried to run but fell right into a puddle I created with my mind while they were freaking out I rushed over to Abigail who in spite of her injury was laughing hysterically I went over to her picked her up and set off toward her home. When we got her house I had forgotten about telling her about leaving and personally I didn't want to leave not after what I had seen right now though I concentrated on healing her since the bottle was gone I had to use my power to heal her so I put her down by this time she had stopped laughing and was biting her lip trying not to scream ! I looked at her and said *I am going to have to heal you myself hold still and try not to scream OK*. She nodded. *Good * I said patting her on the shoulder then I began. I put my hands out lay them on her legs closed my eyes and began to silently pray for healing sooner then I expected I felt the power flow out of me like a River I felt her being healed I sat like that until every bone in her body was healed and even the bruises had gone away I pulled my hands away and said in a kind voice how do you feel know she smiled and said much better thank you so much! I smiled at her as we sat in silence finally clearing my throat I said there is something important I have to say I said quietly still thinking of the best way to say it .she looked at me and said *and what is that *?

There was a long silence finally I said * I have to leave*! She looked puzzled and said where? I answered *I have to on to heaven*. Oh she was silent after that then I said it’s not like I want to go heaven will be no fun without you but it is my time I have learned my lesson and it is time for me to go . What lesion? She asked. So I told her the whole story starting with my talk with God up to now leaving out only my falling in love with her because I wasn't sure that she was In love with me and if she was I did not want to leave her with the feeling of desertion. There was a moment of silence then she said in a small voice I don't want you to go I love you! I looked up at her startled what I said not believing what I had heard! She said again I love you and I don't want you to go! I love you to I said but it is really not up to me it is my time and I don't know if I have a choice. She gazed into my eyes and said so you do love me then she seemed happy but there was a touch of sadness to her voice. More than anything I said she smiled and said I wish you could stay I wish so too I said I did not think I would end up like this! When I first saw you I only felt sorry for you it was not until just before you saw me that I started falling in love! she said I started the moment you saved me from almost near death before that I felt something like love but it was buried so deep in my heart I was not sure but now that I know that I will lose you I am sure that it is love. I wish with all my heart to stay I said I cannot bear the thought of leaving you alone by yourself with no one to help you Against those bullies I fear if I leave things will go back to the way it used to be and you will be bullies and hurt again I wish there was some way I could stay! Bye now we were holding each other in our arms and she looked up and said maybe there is a way! I shook my head not any that I know of I said she snuggled closer into my warm chest and said I am sure we will find a way! I sighed as we sat like that holding each other close and not speaking soon it was dark !I sighed and said Ralph will be hear any minute ! No sooner had I said that then Ralph appeared out of nowhere looked like He had some secret up his sleeve and was happy to keep it from me. It is time he said the boss wants to speak to you out there! I looked out into the ally and saw a blue light in the shape of a dome shining out of the sky walked down the alley stood in the center and waited! Then he heard it the voice he had first heard when he had died it said you have done well Anthony you are ready to come into heaven however you Have made an unusual request to stay on earth as a ghost but under present Circumstances and because you said yourself that it would not be heaven without her I have thought the matter over and agreed to let you stay with her until the day she dies then you both can enjoy heaven together and she will be safe under your watch! And Ralph will stay with you until you are old enough and he is old enough to be called Grandpa but will only be outward appearance because he never ages then he will come here and we will wait for you both to join us so that we can all enjoy heaven together what do you think? I did not know what to think this was the answer I had been looking for my prayers had been answered I would be allowed to stay until she died then we could both be together in heaven! All I could say was thank you thank you oh thank you! I could hear him laughing and saying you’re welcome your very welcome then suddenly as the light appeared it disappeared!
Chapter 11.
I stood still too happy to move or speak then I ran over to Abigail picked her up and spun her around saying I don't have to go I can stay I can stay forever! She was just as happy as me then Ralph said well aren't you going to thank me I was the one who told him about your feeling for Abigail after all! I looked up at him in surprise! So that was the secret he had! Well thank you I said with my whole heart Abigail joined in the thanks and Ralph smiled and said it was the least I could do for both of you.

We both smiled at him as we held each other’s Hands and knew it was only the beginning of our happy life together! As the years went by we spent many happy days together no one bullied her anymore and we had many happy days as she got older so did I but it was only for appearance sake but strangely enough we never had children until we got up to heaven! After a while Ralph went up as it was his time, Then Abigail died of old age and I could go up with her right after her spirit left her body because I was dead already! how young she looked because you are shown in heaven in your best years and those were the ones spent with me so she went up her spirit 17,


As we went through the tunnel and saw the light at the end of it we became excited it was a indescribable feeling of peace and joy !when we got to the other side who would be there to greet us but Ralph himself we smiled and said welcome home! We all held hands as we passed through the pearly gates to enter a world of peace and love to spend eternity together!

THE END!
