You're afraid it's all come down to this place where dreams are falling to the ground, mmm Just look up, you'll make it through, 'cause there's a heavenly being that's watching over you, ooh

-Calling Down An Angel; Plus One
(CD: Obvious)
Nick stared out over the glassy lake, the sun's reflection sparkling like crystal. He didn't know exactly how he'd gotten to this point ... this point of falling; crashing and burning. One minute he'd been the happiest man alive. The next, his whole world had collapsed around him. If things had gone according to plan, he would be getting married at that moment, but glancing at his watch he knew it just wouldn't be happening. A problem such as his couldn't be fixed over night.
Nick and his fiance had been ecstatic the night before, laughing and playing games with their friends as a substitute for bachelor and bachelorette parties. And then the doorbell had rung. Eleven o'clock at night, dark outside, and suddenly somebody had been at the door. Everybody had curiously looked at each other.
Nick had been the one to answer the door, but as he sat now, from a park bench, staring at the water in front of him, he wished he hadn't. He knew that what had greeted him, as he'd opened the door, would change his life forever.
He didn't want it to change. He needed an angel and he needed one fast.
