"Only one arrow left." God reminded the angel, "Use it wisely".
Aziraphale knew that his assignment would be concluded soon, and he will be back to the clouds of heaven and won't see the handsome demon again.
Every encounter with the demon he had so far, he could feel his heart picking up the pace, Crowley had become the bane of his existence, haunting his thoughts day and night. He practically couldn't think straight, and lost almost all his arrows except one in the process.
"Hey, you!" Aziraphale heard, and then he tried to locate the caller, not knowing if it was meant for him.
"I'm looking at you, angel." Crowley called, and hoped that the angel will come to him and not fly away.
"Now Aziraphale, shoot him!" God commanded.
'I can't… I can't do this…' Aziraphale thought, but as he pulled the last arrow from his quiver, and set the bow, but the way the arrow was aimed it would hit him and him alone, and maybe the demon.
Crowley looked at the angel, and noticed where the arrow was pointed, he sighed heavily, and muttered to himself, "This is not going to end well."
Aziraphale shot himself, and let himself fall to the ground, knowing that he was a fallen angel now, and might be banned from Heaven after he shot himself and blundered his task.
However, Aziraphale did not feel any pain, he could not even recall hitting the ground, as the demon held him.
"You saved me." Aziraphale told him as he stared at the snake eyes.
"You saved me too, considering all the times you were trying to shoot me." Crowley grinned at him.
"I… I love you." Aziraphale told him, forgetting that he played the Cupid role in the last days.
"I love you too, my Cupid friend." Crowley teased him.
"I think that after today, God won't want me in Heaven." Aziraphale mumbled.
"Angel, if you only shot him in the first place, I mean look what happened, you practically shook the ground between Heaven and Hell, and Aziraphale, you are always welcome in Heaven, but for two weeks you are grounded, so please stay with your lover." God told him.
"What's wrong?" Crowley asked as the angel looked up in the sky.
"I'm good, and since God grounded me for a while, I'm all yours." Aziraphale replied with a glad smile.
"God works in mysterious ways." Crowley grinned and leaned to kiss his angel.
