Hello again, humans, animals, and any combination thereof! I got around to thinking (very strange for me) and I decided to type up another chapter. So, here's chapter two. Oh, and every chapter is going to be in Angel's POV, so sorry if you were confused by last chapter.

Fallen Angel

Chapter 2

So, shopping, I learned that day, was when you go to a thing called the store and buy stuff. Mom and I went to a big store with a lot of stores in it. I learned that it was called a mall. I didn't remember anything about malls and stores. I wondered what had happened over that time I was gone, what had happened, and if I had been shopping before.

Mom went all out for me. She took me to a ton of stores and bought me more clothes than both of us could carry. Seriously, we had to bring the car around and reload it, like, twice at least. I didn't have much fun, in fact, I told mom that I was happy with my jeans and Angel shirt, but she didn't take no for an answer.

"Every girl likes shopping, Amy. We're going to have so much fun!" she had said.

So I ended up shopping. It was living torture. I didn't like being in a place with so many people and things around me. I felt like I was going to die. Mom told me to not be so jumpy, but I couldn't help it. For some reason, the word valium came to mind, and I asked my mom what it was.

"Valium is a thing doctors use to relax a patient. What made you think of it?" Mom asked me, looking puzzled.

"I don't know, I just did," I replied.

Mom didn't make me try anything on in the stores because I was already acting freaked and claustrophobic there in the open (and I learned that claustrophobia isn't fear of Santa Claus, who is a fat guy who lives in the snow and brings toys to greedy little kids). She said I was definitely a small, but I got mediums because it just felt right, and the shirt I was wearing was a medium. Mom checked my tag for me when we were about to leave for the mall.

In the midst of shopping, we got pizza at a place called Round Table. Oddly, all the tables were square. Mom ordered an extra-large pizza for me and her, and I thought it would be too much. But when the food came, it looked so good, I must have devoured three-fourths of that thing. Mom had three small pieces.

"You sure eat a lot," she commented.

"I do?" I asked as I finished off the last piece, scraping my 8th little container of ranch dressing.

Mom nodded and wiped her face with a napkin. "It's a wonder how you're so skinny."

I smiled and stood up. Mom followed suit and we both left the building.

I loved pizza. It was so good. I told Mom that I didn't think I had had it before.

Mom laughed and said, "I'm pretty sure you have. Most kids have had a lot of pizza by the time they're your age."

I widened my eyes and felt my pupils get huge. "Really? So does that mean we can have it again sometime?"

She nodded with a light smile on her face. "But you haven't even tried the best stuff yet," she said.

I cocked my head to the side in wondering.

"Have you ever had cheeseburgers?" she asked.

I shook my head no.

"We'll go to Red Robin tonight, you'll love 'em," Mom said sweetly.

Mom was so nice. I wished I could remember something about her, anything. I just wished this had never happened. Who knows what went on when I was gone? What would have happened to me? I didn't know.

Oh, crud. Mom had led me down the mall and now she was stopped in front of a store. "Claire's Boutique" it said above the door. I looked in and saw a lot of pink, jewelry and other various items and wanted to get out of there. Mom led the way in.

"Claire's?" I asked as she practically pulled me inside. "Do I really have to?"

"It's that or Victoria's Secret," she confirmed.

I looked across the way, where Victoria's was. It was a underwear store. I was happy with a few six-packs from JC. No freaking way was I going in there.

I must have been making a face, because mom smiled and said, "That's what I thought," and we walked further inside.

The jewelry that I could stand was closer to the front. Further back, it was all for little girls and stuff. I picked out this wicked brushed silver chain with a guitar on the end and rhinestones. Mom said no and picked out a shiny silver necklace with a silver heart on the end. Oh, yippee.

Then we went to the earrings. I'm not going to bore you with the details, but we ended up getting a pair of dangly heart earrings that went with my necklace. I wasn't going to wear those any time soon.

At least I got out of going to Victoria's Secret, Hollister, Abercrombie, and other torture chambers like it. Mom almost dragged me into all those, but I just straight up said, "No freaking way, dude," and left it at that.

At the end of the day, after I brought up the last bag of clothes to my room, I plopped on the bed, exhausted. I didn't know how long I stayed there, but I must have been asleep at one point because mom woke me up and told me is was time to go to Red Robin.

The cheeseburgers were great. They were up there with pizza. Dad and Mom were listing off a ton of really good sounding food during dinner, like steak, rib, lobster, prime rib, crab, and a lot of other things. By the time we got the check, I had drooled a huge puddle on the table.

At home, I finally, after what felt like forever, got to take a shower. I pulled off my shirt and stretched, feeling my arms brush something soft. I looked into the mirror, wondering what it was.

Then, I saw them. Two wide, feathery wings, growing right out of my back. Oh my freaking god, I have wings! This was too weird. I wondered why I hadn't noticed them before. Did everyone have them? Did this happen when I was gone? Was I the only one? Or was there some others out there? This was way too weird.

Did you like it? Probably not. I can't wait to type up what happens at school. It's going to be so freaking bizarre.

Don't forget to review!
