Chapter 4: Heart to heart...

It's been a very long, tiring, annoying, embarrassing, week. So not so good in short. It's Sunday. It's been 5 days since I've meet blush and my counterpart valentine. In those five days monster after monster attacking the city for who knows what, you name it. Beast, demon, animal people? Ahhh! It's not only the fighting that's tiring it's actually ok, for some 16 year old boy who eats chocolate any chance he gets. As well Blush is amazing as a trainer. But, she hasn't backed off on the cleaning so I got her something in return, her very own pink, fluffy pillow and pink hankie blanket in return for her hard work training me as valentine and everything else, she's like a mum. She's great, really I'm lucky to have her, I've only known her for so long but she's amazing.

However... one thing I've been a bit uneasy about. Valentine, more me being her. I know she is me and the "amour" is different to express their owners personality as blush puts it, but I still feel like I'm cosplaying her or playing hero. Something like that, I'm more comfortable as valentine then I thought I be the armour is heavy so I know it's not just for show. It's actually kinda cool to wear. It doesn't really bother me to much, but I didn't think this one thing would be a issue. Popularity, yeah media can kill or start someone in rise or fall of fame. After my second or third fight with the dark monsters I attracted fans well small city news goes around. And what an interesting experience that was. What happened was...

"Yes Heather, I'm coming back... Matt's fine his mum made cookies for us so that's... yes I said thank you... ok...ok bye Heather bye... yeah love you too... I know you love me more oaky bye, bye" Heather your such a mum... I walk down the street side of apartments and the shopping district. I had a game after school and Matt's mum took me and Matt to the game for Heather had to work. It's Thursday so nothing new. "What was that you we're doing, you looked like you really enjoyed it" blush flew out of my bag and in my blazer pocket. "Yeah it was great we're gonna win the quarterfinals for sure and it's called basketball" I told blush then noticing some odd looks coming my way so I rushed away until I came towards a park. "Sorry Ryan for embarrassing you, but I had to leave your bag, it smelled terrible! I still don't know why your walking home tho?" Blush apologies as she hid enough so she could still see me. "Sorry for that, but it can't be that bad, but for you I will see if I can do something ok?" I whisper to her, she smiled back. "And Matt has 3 brothers, that's 4 boys his mum needs to feed so I think if I walk home that's less on her to worry about" I feel for Matt's mum even though Matt says I'm just sensitive for woman cause my sister, which makes no sense but it's a little thing I can do to help cause Matt went for a jog after I left. Buff much.

As I turn to the townhouses on the valley villa were I live I hear crashing "what's that?" I look around to find a dog beast destroying a park full of children. I rush into a toilet block. "Blush what is THAT?" I ask a bit panicked. Blush flies up to the window then comes back " a dog collateral, you need to transform! You ready?" Blush asked with such passion and determination that I just "sure why not!" Went along with it, hey it worked for sailor moon it'll work for me, first time fighting yeah!! I look at blush for a solid minute waiting for her transform me. "Blush" "yes Ryan" ok nice "don't you, you know" " what Ryan" ok ... "transform me or what?" "Oh yes!" Finally let's do th- "you have to say charmdex open my heart" ok no.. so I'm not someone who judges really I'm not. like loves loves and what not but.. "blush that's really cheesy" I really got the short end of the stick here but blush's look of 'yes, yes it is deal with it, it saved your world plenty times before so suck it up' well that's what I think the look athat blush is wearing as she magically brings out the charmdex, holding it in my hand. Letting out a breath and looked up for this town needs a hero. " charmdex!" Ok not too bad "open my heart!" Ohh yeah!!! Light consumes the charm as well me. "Blush!" I yell out or her as she flies to my chest as she as well as I are consumed by the light.

"The cupids choose, leader of a heart full of love, guardian of valentines, guardian valentine, ready to fly!" Oh yeah valentine is ready to fly for the first time! I run out the toilet stall to the park seeing kids stuck in tress. I jump up to get them " wait I can fly?" No Ryan your abilities are enhanced so you can jump really high! Blush voice echoes through my ears. "Ok let's go" I jump into the trees filled with kids scared and worried how dare that thing scare kids! " hey! Come to me I'm here to help" I sounded lovely? Weird I Tell them as 6 to 8 kids climb on me super strength check! I drop them off at the toilet stall. "Ok go home quickly don't look back and help each other out ok" I tell them to ensure there happy. "Thanks miss!" "Are you a superhero!?" "No your a princess!!!" The kids thank and ask me as they hover me, over miss? Oh right girl now... "I'm just a friend here to help others so you can too by leaving here and helping each other home ok?" I ask them hoping they go or this park is gonna be a chew toy very soon "ok.. um?" "Valentine, guardian valentine" I answer with I wink cooly and leave quickly to stop the wild beast. "Here doggy, doggy you want to play?" Were is it? I look around "go!" I turn to find a girl running from the arms of MATT whose being ATTACK by the best "NO!!" I yell as I run towards them. Hope I get their in time...

Bam!! Yeah I'm strong alright I punched to beast just in time as it was about to eat Matt. It landed down hard, not moving. "It will wake soon, are you ok Mat- man!, boy, sir?" Sir let's stick with that I look over to him as he points to the beast getting up. Valentine finish it, then use your bow a few hits will kill it "ok.." I turn back standing strong "sorry bingo but play time is over time to settle down" I joke towards the beast not taking to kindly to it. Suddenly the beast and I are fighting head on, punches, kicks. It gives a good hit leaving me on the ground that's gonna bruise it goes towards Matt who looks like he's hurt his leg. I get up get my bow... yeah out of nowhere thanks to magic you know... and hit it in the back. It fell but kept running. I start running towards Matt and grabbed him by the waist and carried him bridal style I thought I'd do that when I marry? I stand ready to jump "hold on tight pretty boy" you have no idea how long I wanted to call him that. He holds on tight a bit to tight? Ahh playboys I jumped up to the sky got my bow and "Cupid's bow!"ok power move I fire it and it fires down on him burning him in pink glitter fames. Lovely... I land down with the encounter of an audience. Of police, ambulance, firefighters and news reporters. Kids, teens, adults with phones out taking pictures and stuff. I land with pink glitter dust leaving my feet wait is that Rose scented? "What is.." 'miss, miss what's your name' 'who are you?' 'Are you a superhero' 'is your costume necessary?' 'Are you single'

Whoa whoa too many people, valentine you got this just be yourself but don't. Ok... "I am Guardian Valentine. I am a Guardian who is here to protect you as well stand by you and your hero's" I point towards the police and others. " Thank you and good wishes to you loves" I wink and fly off. Wait what! Sorry couldn't help it hehehe " couldn't help it yeah.." I mumble as I jump from building to building "ahh were are you taking me?" Ohh right I got a plus one "oh ahh I thought because of your leg I take you home" good save "you know were I live?" Shitttt "no I was waiting for you to tell me" be cool be cool "sorry, it's that way" Matt pointed out to the house. "Sweet hehe" great now I hehehe I look up blushed with embarrassment hoping he hadn't seen. After a few minutes we land as I helped him down his leg got better. Probably a sprain " hope you get better it was cool of you to save that girl, thanks" I wave off to leave but my hand was caught. I turn to see Matt smiling? "No worries, your the one I should thank for saving me, sweetheart" he winked at me ohh hell no, who does he think I am some chick, well yes but I'm man, so no!!! " no worries pretty boy I'm here to help princesses like you in need" I smile bitterly as I take back my hand as his moved to my hips great he likes a challenge does he " your bittersweet are you sweetheart don't worry if your free we could go out you know, you, me a real man" he winked and walked back home. I turned and went far far away. I stop off to transform back to me when " oh my goodness your valentine!" "Can we get you number" "let's be friends"

Girls, girls everywhere. I like the attention don't get me wrong but as Ryan would be nice so then I thought this will blow over sooner or later but...

"Friday finally time for sleep" I breathe out, as I walk to school. Blush hiding in my hidden blazer pocket agreeing with me " yes you did very well yesterday Valentine good job" blush hugged my chest as she congrats me. I simile back "thanks to you blush, let's just get to school and what was that yesterday?" Blush giggled "I'm part of you, so I can speak to, I rather don't but you needed help" blush smiled. I rolled my eyes "ok just don't do it again ok?" Blush nodded " I can only do it sometimes it's a lot of work" I nodded and continued to walk. I walk in to the school yard noticing everyone on their phones, iPads, laptops even in magazines. What's going on? I walk into the indoor seating area finding my group of mates giggling like school girls. " hey what going on?" They all look up and came to me showing " It's Guardian Valentine ohhh she's soo cool!" Shoved in my face is a image of ME on his iPad winking at the crowd. "Were you get this photo from!" I ask calmly at not knowing of photos being ohhhh yeah I do but still. "Dude there everywhere she's so popular girls love her, admire, want to be her or hate her because" " she is so CUTE look at her winking at me" what I'm cute? " what do you mean at you she is to everyone man" the two boys argued I looked over to see one of the jurors looking at a picture of me jumping underneath?!?!? Perverts I snatched his phone deleting it off his screen blush and ashamed of the male species. " what are you doing! Looking up her skirt that's so wrong you don't know she could be 10 or something" something the boy got up and took back his phone "chill guy, I'm not the only one even the girls so they can buy her underwear brand and she's wearing shorts so back off !!" He got up and left what " hey Ryan you ok?" I look to see Ben, his's such nice guy, he really is. "Yeah but what's with all this stuff about valentine is she that good?" Ben looks at me then chuckles "well she did save kids and your best friend right? And you out of everyone should be excited for your love of anime" I look at him blushed and said "well yeah but we haven't seen much of her so yeah I'm just hoping she can handle the publicity and creep fans" I hope indeed "well I bet she knows what she's in for" no she doesn't "anyway she living life to the fullest she even 'dating' hahaha" Ben chuckles wait what... I turned to have Ben answer my question by pointing to Matt, whose talking about himself and Valentine as showing off his bruised leg not sprained . "What do you mean by dating, Matt?" I squeezed out as quickly as I could. Ben signed and said "because of Valentine saving him he wants to date her but from what I heard she turned him down as Matt puts it 'she's busy' so... " I signed in relief as I chuckled nervously ok that makes so much more sense but how would he fill finding his 'girl' being his mate

So far it's been a very weird experience, the action is awesome for I'm actually toning more then ever so that a plus that my extra work is actually showing, but I can't help wonder who are my teammates. Do I have any? Or am alone? I believe I won't be but who knows...

"Hey princess miss me?" I look up to see standing right in front of me the one who gives me a reason to relax "hey Peeta how are you?"
