Someone's Watching - A Little Drabble Do Ya

A drabble and a half...

......

"What are you up to Illya?"

The blond head turned to see who was asking.  He didn't recognize her, she seemed … unearthly.

"Do I know you?"

She smiled at him.  They never remembered these visitations.

"Yes, and no.  We've met before but you've probably forgotten."

He sighed, aware of the pain in his chest.

"Am I dying?"  He asked in Russian, wondering if he were awake or imagining her.

"No, not today dear one.  Not today."

"He's awake Napoleon.  He's going to be alright."  The nurse was relieved to be able to deliver good news.

Napoleon stood by his friend's bed, relief flooding him as he considered what might have been.

"I prayed for you today. Maybe I ought to do that before we go into these missions."

Illya lay still, his mind full of the images he had seen… or dreamt.

"I think it made a difference."

She smiled...

Beautiful.
I imagine Illya's angel works a lot harder than others.

And He will give His angels charge over thee...

Lovely piece!
