Love Guardians Part 4: Love Bird

To Know Her

The next morning, I woke up and Toothiana lightly poked my nose as she woke up. "Good morning sleepy head." She lightly laughed and sat up. "Do you have an extra tooth brushed?"

I smiled as I sat up and walked to my drawer. "Actually, I do."

She flew to me. "Thank you." She kissed my cheek, then paused. "After I brushed my teeth, I'll have to head off." Her eyes lowered. "Is that okay?"

"Hey," I softly lifted her chin. "It's okay, you have a job to do." I kissed her cheek. "Now let's go brush our teeth."

The rest of the day seemed to pass by too slowly. Toothiana left after she kissed me, which ruined my train of thoughts. I kept thinking about the kiss and wanting to kiss her back, but she left before I could. This ruined my concentration and thought processes. I couldn't strategically think of how to defeat Alex in War of the Lords or Magic Revelation or Dokopon Kingdom. I couldn't think of anything except that kiss Toothiana gave me.

So when she came early I wasn't surprised. I was very excited.

"Damian!" Toothiana rapidly slid in, embacing me and kissing me.

I wrapped my arms around her when I was finally able to stand up. I laughed. "I love you too, Toothiana."

She smiled and kissed me. "Are you ready to go?"

I nodded. "And my mom's out again, so you don't have to worry."

Toothiana paused, but then she smiled. "I know." She kissed me and we went to her palace.

We didn't fly to the usually spot we would arrive in. In fact, we didn't arrive the way we usually would. Toothiana flew around the palace, hiding behind pilars, and rapidly flying, like she didn't want to be seen by anyone. She flew to down to a grassy area with a tree and large pond.

I sat at the base of the tree and looked at the mural on the rocky wall. "What is this place?"

Toothiana sat beside me. "This is one of the small gardens in the palace." She smiled at me. "It's a place of peace." She placed a hand on my cheek. "Damian, have we been making out a lot?" Her knee softly touched my thigh.

My heart raced, making me speak rapidly. "Not enough." I was on my back as she kissed me, wrapping her arms around me. "Toothiana."

She kissed me one last time. "Yes?"

I looked away, scratching my nose. "I know this might sound stupid or insensitive, but... Are you my girlfriend? We never really established that."

She sat up. "What do you think?" She smiled.

I sat up. "I think you love me as much as I love you."

She placed her hand on my chest. "And?"

"I think you're beautiful." I smiled.

She grinned. "And?"

I kissed her. "I'm the only one you dream of kissing."

She kissed me, raking my hair. "All the time." She kissed me and hovered over the ground. "Come on." She led me through some tunnels and a few bridges to a golden tiled double door.

I gasped quietly. I had just taken a big step with Toothiana. "Is this a room for a sacred book or some sort of secret?"

Toothiana smiled and kissed my cheek. "This is where my own memories are." She rubbed her arm. "I thought that since I saw your memories, you could see mine."
