21. Umbrella

[A/N: Possible Spoiler Warning – this is based on the Kids OVA. Although not so-much part of my 'mini-story' as it is a small snippet from the OVA. Sugar and fluff ahead – you've been warned. :D]

The three children smacked of innocence. The girl cried over being lost while the oldest explained they were looking for their great-grandfathers apartment.

The police officers heart softened and he yearned to protect them. He carefully held back his grin at the serious expression of the oldest boy and offered to escort them.

The stern expression spoke louder than words – any help above what was necessary was unwanted; so he drew them a map instead.

However, he secretly followed the children the few blocks to their destination, offering them his umbrella of protection even as he hid it from them.

A/N: A special thanks goes out to AmeliaLynn for the prompt idea. I always appreciate input and it just so happens the original theme for #21 had me utterly stumped. So since I have no idea where I found this list anyway – I decided to try this out instead.
