I honestly don't think that knives are the right weapon for Dave. I will keep on trying though. I have no choice but to keep trying.

I smile as I lean back into Robs arms. I feel so warm, so safe in his arms. But I know the feeling of safety, of security, is only an illusion.

Because, with Gisbourne and the Sheriff on the loose, looking to kill me and the band, (in Gisbournes case, especially me) no one is truly safe. But I will enjoy the feeling of security while I can. I glance over at Rob, and notice that his eyes are open, looking at me.

He smiles, and I lean into him, enjoying the moment of peace and happiness. As we sit there, I start to wonder.

Why does Rob have his arm around me? I'm not complaining, but it will only cause I re hurt when he finds out.

"Why did you act so tense when you told us about Gisbourne? Do you know him?" Rob asks me.

I mentally groan. Out of all of the questions he could he asked, out of all of the things he could have said, he HAD to ask that!?!? I sigh. Might as well give an answer of some kind.

"I've just heard the name. I don't know him." Lie. I got up, and said "Better head back. Getting late."

Rob just nodded, got up, and we headed back to the cave.

Good. I managed to get out of that one. I don't wanna tell anyone, no one knows, and I plan to keep it that way.
