The Lost Guardian Chapter 4

Kaleys POV

I opened my eyes, and looked up. I was in Robins arms. He was still sleeping. The blanket was still around us, too. I smiled.

"Robin?" I whispered.

He gently opened his eyes. "Hey, Kaley." He said in a tired way. "How long have you been up?"

"A few seconds, ha ha." We both smiled.

I started to think about the moment we met. The way he hugged me out of nowhere. Then I thought about how he said "it's really you!". What did he mean by that?

"Hey, Robin. Since you asked about me fluffing the pillow, I have a question to ask you."

"Ask away."

"What did you mean by "it's really you."?

He grinned. "I was told every guardian has a chosen one. Basically, one person who believes in me and loves me."

I froze. He said love. I didn't know what to say. I looked down avoiding his gaze.

"What's wrong?" He asked, curious.

"Um...I'm just thinking, that's all."

"About what?" He wasn't going to leave this subject alone.

I thought of a way to explain how I felt. "What do you mean by love?"

He laughed. "Like, that feeling in your heart you get when you care deeply about someone. That "pitter patter" you hear in your chest when you think about someone special."

I giggled. "I think you mean "bu-bum bu-bum"."

"That's not the way I remember it." He said in a funny way. We both giggled.

"I'm still in my robe. I'll change real quick. I'll meet you in the living room when I'm done."

He gave me a hug and left the room, closing the door behind him. I changed into my green circle neck-shaped shirt and my blue jeans. I felt like going out for breakfast, so I put on my white socks and my converse shoes. I quickly grabbed my hairbrush and brushed my hair. I also grabbed my scrunchy. Then, I left to the living room.

Robin popped his head up from the couch and smiled. "Hey, Kaley."

I smiled back and sat next to him on the couch. "Hey, Robin. I'm going to a store a couple blocks away to pick up some breakfast, you wanna come?" I asked, putting my hair up with the scrunchy.

"Sure."

I went to check on Jona, but she was talking to Jack in her room. I told her where I was going, and then Robin and I left.

We were a block away from the store, when something strange happened. A man snuck up from behind me, put my hands behind my back, and put a gun to my head. I tried to struggle free but it was no use.

"Ah! Let me go!" He pushed me up against the brick wall and held me there.

"I'll shoot her if anyone doesn't do what I say!" The man then pulled me to his chest, back first.

I looked at Robin, and started to shed a tear. "Robin..." I whispered.

"Shut up!" He kicked the back of my leg, and I shrieked.

Without hesitation, Robin kicked the man in the crotch, grabbed his gun and threw it behind us. He quickly pulled me over to him.

"What the...what was that?!" The man looked around, but all the other people weren't even close to him. He quickly limped in a different direction, out of our sight.

I turned to look at Robin, and hugged him tightly. "Thank you, Robin! You saved my life!"

He hugged me back. "Is your leg OK?"

I hadn't even thought of my leg. But it did hurt like crazy, and I couldn't walk on it. "Could you help me back to our apartment?"

"Yeah, here." He put my arm around his neck, and put his hand around my waist. He helped me all the way back to the apartment.

When we opened the door to our apartment, Jack and Jona were on the couch talking.

"Kaley, what happened!?" Jona stood up, shocked.

"Someone tried to hurt her, but it's OK now. I saved her." Robin looked at me and smiled.

"Do you know who it was?" Jack asked.

"I didn't get a good look at him, sorry." I sat down on the couch with help from Robin. "Wait...remember after you threw his gun behind us? How he reacted?" I looked at Robin.

"Yeah, I remember."

"It's almost as if...he never even saw you." I had a puzzled look on my face.

Jack spoke. "Well yeah he didn't see him. Only those who believe in the guardians can see us."

I completely forgot about that. "That's right..."

I could tell Robin looked a little sad, so I gave him a hug. "I'll always believe in you Robin, never forget that."

He grinned, and hugged me back.

"So I guess we'll just have to order breakfast." I giggled.

Jona decided to call a fast food delivery place. During the wait, Robin suggested we hang out in my room. I grinned and we walked to my room, again with help from him. He lifted me up and set me down on my bed. It took a few seconds for us to realize I still didn't have my blanket and pillow on my bed yet. He turned around and grabbed the pillow, and set it down under my head. Then he took the blanket and covered me with it, laying down next to me.

"Robin, when you wake up in the morning, what's the first thing that pops through your mind?" I turned to face him.

"I think of the sweetness in your heart, your beauty, the way you make me smile all the time."

I blushed madly. He hugged me again. We both smiled at each other. I broke the silence.

"When I wake up in the morning, I think of how special you are. Not because you're a guardian, but because of how you are able to keep me happy all the time by your kindness and cuteness."

This time, he blushed a lot. He took my hand and kissed it. I could feel butterflies in my stomach. Or was it little Robin raindrops sprinkling. I giggled at the thought.

"Hey, I never seen you use your abilities."

"Oh yeah. Watch this." With his hands, he formed a big raindrop about the size of my hand.

I watched in amazement. I poked it, but instead of falling apart, my finger went right through it. I could feel the water all around my finger. I took it out, and looked at Robin. He couldn't help but giggle at how impressed I was. Then I got an idea.

"Could you morph the shape of the raindrop?" I asked, still intrigued.

"Yep." He morphed it to look like a diamond. Then a square. And then, a heart. He stopped there, and look over at me.

"It's beautiful." I placed the heart-shaped raindrop in my hands. It still didn't break. I looked up at him, still gazing at me. "What is it?" I asked him, wondering what was going on in that sweet mind of his.

"It's just...I'm so lucky to be with you right now." His face slowly moved in, as did mine.

I gently closed my eyes, and our lips met. It was sweet and heartfelt. I felt another rain drop, then more and more. Soon it was sprinkling rain. But I didn't care. He wrapped his hands around me, and I did the same to him. When our lips parted, I smirked at him.

"Sorry, but I couldn't help but make it drizzle, heh." He looked up at the rain. "Do you mind getting wet?"

"Nope, not at all." I felt the wet matter on my skin. It felt soothing. I let it run down my body without touching it. Soon it stopped raining.

"Your hair's wet." He giggled.

"So is yours." I stuck my tongue out at him.

The door then opened.

"Breakfast is he..." Jona stopped her sentence. "Oh..haha sorry."

"What?" I gave her a puzzled look.

"Nothing, never mind." She smirked and left closing the door.

"I guess we should go eat now." He helped me up. We both walked, or in my case, limped to the kitchen.

I got my food, which was french toast and a cup of fruit. Robin and I decided to share. We got to the couch and ate, still thinking of our kiss. It was the proof that I love him, and he loves me. 3 3 3
