"No, forget it."

They walked in silence towards the big building they named school. It was a really big building, you could misplace it for a palace. It was white and had gold details that were sparkling in the light. A really serene place that Theo loved.

Other angels were walking around them, their smiles and laughter filling the place with joy.

"Hey, Thee!" he looked at his left just to be accompanied by the sight of his sister, Tara. A beautiful girl with brunette hair and blue eyes like the deepest ocean, her wings fluttering in the wind.

"Hi Tara." he replied with a little smile.

"Where have you been? You weren't home this morning." his older sister asked.

"He was again at one edge and tried to look over it." Stiles responded instead of him. Theo felt kinda betrayed, he knew that lying was a sin and they weren't allowed to lie, but Stiles had been too fast to reply.

"Again? Theo, we talked about this." Tara looked at him.

"I'm sorry." he said truthfully. He couldn't complain or try to find an excuse for his behaviour, he had to take responsibility of what he did.

Tara sighed and all three of them walked into the school.

"I'll see you later, take care of you." the girl ruffled Theo's hair and left.

"Come on!" Stiles grabbed Theo's arm harshly making the angel walk after him. "I have to tell you something." he said as they walked.

Theo could feel the curiosity filling him. He followed Stiles in the library, Theo's absolute favorite place in Heaven. It was big and full of books and informations.

Stiles sat him at a table and dissappeared between the shelves full of books. He came back minutes later, holding a big book. He layed it gently on the table and opened it, flipping some pages.

"Ok so," he started, getting Theo's attention. "I know you want to learn more, more than we are allowed to learn so I found something for you."

"What is it?" Theo asked curiously.

"There are those spirits, the dread spirits. They could answer all your questions." Stiles offered with a smile.

"All questions?"

"All of them."

"I don't know what to say," Theo was unconvinced. "They have the word dread in their name."

"They're here in Heaven, if they would be bad they wouldn't be there."

"So where can I find them?" the boy asked.

"They're in the center of Heaven. I can go with you there." Stiles smiled.

"Really? You would do that for me?" Theo asked surprised, hope in his voice.

"Anything for you!" the other boy replied.

Theo got up and pulled Stiles so fast in a hug that Stiles didn't even have time to react.

"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you so much!" the angel repeated as he tightened his hold on Stiles. He couldn't believe it. He was finally able to learn more.

"You're welcome." Stiles replied and hugged back.

The day went by, Stiles told Theo more about those dread spirits and Theo got more and more excited to meet them. Stiles told him that they'll meet that night and go, since it was a really long way to the center of Heaven, they will be walking all night and they will be there by sunrise.
