After they talked with Lydia for about an hour. Angus knew that the Russians would be after her. So on the spot he knew what will be done.
"Ye know yer in danger?"
"Yeah I know."
"Well help protect ye since as ye say we owe ye."
She nodded and drank the soda Shanna had brung her.
"So what the plan grampa Angus?"
Angus glared at her. "Don't call me that just Angus."
She couldn't hide her laugh. "Oh so then I can't call you Granpa Robby."
"Nay."
She laughed harder. Angus snorted not being able to help it.
"Okay lass. I am sorry but ye have to go into hiding for a while."
"Alright just tell me where to go."
"Nay one of us will have to protect ye at night.. Since we are still in an old schedule we'll use it. Jack ye and Lara stay with Roman and his family continue guarding them. Connor lad I want you t take Lydia to Saval's cabin for a few days then ye head to Jean-Luc's till friday."
Connor looked up in disbelief. He was always the guard for Roman and know he had to guard Lydia alone. This could be a very bad thing. The again maybe not. She herself was cold well toward him. She probly stay locked up at night and free during the day.
"Ifs that what ya want Angus I'll guard Lydia."
She glared at him then turned to Angus.
"I'll be fine I don't need some stone to guard me," she smiled,"Phineas there would be much funner."
Connor glared at her and Angus laughed.
"Lydia Phineas will be on guard at the townhouse. Connor will guard ou he's one of my best," He pointed a finger at her,"and no arguing."
She crossed her arms. "Fine gramps."
He growled as Emma, Shanna adn little Tino laughed.
Tino walked up and smiled at Lydia.
"Uncle Connor will keep you safe."
She smiled down at the young boy and flicked a finger down his nose.
"Your one smart cookie."
He laughed and touched her arm. Lydia stiffened for a moment when Tino's hand warmed up. A sense of peace swam through her she relaxed and smiled at the boy.
He smiled back. "You feel batter."
"Yeah I do thank you." She leaned down and kissed his cheek. Tino blushed and walked to Roman and barried his face in his father stomach.
Angus smiled at Lydia. "We need to get you somethings to take with you. Connor take her home so she can pack a bag"
"Fine." He got up.
In less then twenty mintues Connor pulled up infront of a small house on a lonly road.
"Some home."
Lydia galred at him. "Yeah well some of us can't stay in townhouses."
"Let get this over with. I fell uneasy here.."
'I'll hurry. Thank for letting me bring my sowrd."
"Better with you armed if were ambushed."
Lydia got out and Connor joined her, They made there way up to her house. Connor stopped her when he heard soemone running out the back.
"Someone's here lets get back."
He stayed close to her as they made thier way back to the Lexus.
BOOM
Connor and Lydia were thrown a few feet forward. Lydia landed on her back and Connor landed on top of her completly covering her. Pieces of her house flew everywhere. She felt Connor stiffen and groan.
As thing cooled down Connor lifted his head.
"Ye alright."
"I think so I have a rock under my back that hurt like hell but other then that yeah."
Connor reached his hadn under her back to get the rock. She arched up over his hand her breast pushed against his chest. He threw the rock off and she lowered with a sigh.
"Thanks. Are you okay."
As they sat up her hand touched his back. She felt a wetness. She looked he was bleeding.
"Connor your hurt."
"I'll be fine call Angus."
She did as she was told and called Angus.
"Whats wrong."
"My house just blew up and Connor's hurt."
"We'll be there"
She continued to take till Angus, Robby, Phineas, adn Jack teleport in. Angus walked to Connor and looked.
" 'Tis a piece of metal Roman will have to remove it," he turned to Lydia, "Ye hurt."
She shook her head. "Maybe a bruise or two but Connor to the force of the blow."
He nooded."Connor ye and Lydia teleport to Romatech let Roman heal ye then ye and Lydia are going to the cabin."
"Yes sir. Come Lydia." She didn argue she knew that someone might be waiting to take a hit at her. She walked up to come and he put an arm around her shoulder she held his waist as they teleported to Romatech.
Lydia sat in the waiting room and Roman and Laszlo took care of Connor. Her head was in her hands. She had alot to think about.
Maybe Connor wasn't so cold after all. He got hurt protecting her. He maybe be a sour goat but he doesn't let that interrupt his job.
She felt a hand on her shoulder she looked up adn saw Gregori.
"You okay."
"Yeah I think the full force of whats happeneing if finally hitting me.
He sat down beside her and put an arm around her shoulders. She layed her head on his shoulder.
"Don't worry Connor's vary good he'll protect you I promise. You'll be okay."
"I know. But the guilt is also present. He got hurt becuase he was protecting me. Know that I have time to think I and relieved it didn't perce his heart."
Gregori squeezed her shoulder.
"You'll be fine just wait by tomorrow night I bet you two will be at each others throats."
She laughed and Connor walked out.
She and Gregori stood up. Connor nooded. "I'll be fine. Come we must go."
She nooded and put her arms around Connor's waist as he put his around her shoulders and they disappeared.
