You Kissed Valerie?

Angel

"Frances?" Sarah was almost in tears. "Yeah, it's me. How's Sydney?"

She clutched the paper Angel had handed to her at her chest and listened. She stared at Angel. "Oh, thank God," she said. "I was so scared."

Angel exhaled relieved. "No, no, I'm glad you called." she said. "So, what happened? Why was an ambulance called?"

She was on the phone for a few more minutes, and Angel sat down on the desk chair, leaning all the way back. He watched as Sarah hung up and looked at him. He held his arms out for her to come to him. She walked over and sat on his lap. He wrapped his arms around her. "So, she's okay?"

Sarah nodded. "The ambulance was called because Sydney complained of pain in the stomach. They wanted to make sure there was no internal bleeding."

"Was there?"

Sarah shook her head and took a deep breath. "No."

Angel leaned his forehead against hers. "How are you doing?"

She smiled weakly and shrugged. "I was just imagining the worst."
