I was in my training grounds fighting a scarecrow with all my might. Just as I was cleaning up the mess I made when the door bell rang. I opened it to see a banker I knew by the name of Mr.Poe. "Hello I am here to talk to (Y/N) (L/N) about being a protector for the Baudelaire orphans." I fully opened the door so I could see him properly. I had also forgot to change out of my training clothes so I was in a pair of blue shorts and a red t-shirt.

"Yeah. That's me." I stated. He looked at me up and down and gulped. "Oh good. Well the children are going to be with their Uncle Montgomery. I have them in my car so you need to come with me now." He said. I quickly got changed and got into the car. I have all three children a kind smile and said "I know you might think I'm a bit odd. But I promise you that you will be safe with me. If you need me just shout my name."

We were driving down Lousy Lane and a horrid smell reached my nose. I coughed a bit at the stench and tried to ignore it.

After the drive we had finally arrived at Doctor Montgomery Montgomery house. As soon as I heard his full name I felt sorry for him. He was bound to get picked on. Mr.Poe ring the doorbell and I tensed ready to punch the person if they were evil.

The door opened to see a fairly young man with dark skin and ebony black hair with a little mustache and beard. My first impression was that he was a kind and (if I might say) charming man. "Hello,hello,hello. You must be the Baudelaires. And you are?" He asked.
"Oh. I am (Y/N) (L/N) and I am their protector." As I said that I took my yellow hood down too reveal my face.

Montgomery POV

The girl took down her hood to reveal lovely (H/L) (H/C) hair, soft (S/C) skin and bright (E/C) eyes. With one look at her I immediately felt my cheeks heat up. This girl has came from heaven itself.

"W-well I hope t-that we can get a-along well." I stuttered out. I mentally hit myself for stuttering. This was embarrassing but (Y/N) just giggled. Her giggle was so cute.

We went inside and (Y/N) looked around. "That is unusual for a baby but not unusual for most snakes." I said after Sunny Baudelaire didn't want some coconut cream cake. So I gave her a raw carrot. "Would you like this slice ma'am?" I asked turning to (Y/N). She blushed and said "Thank you Doctor Montgomery."
I put my hand on her shoulder and whispered in her ear "Call me Monty. Everyone does. Well except the scientist's at the herbiological society." If it was possible she blushed even more.

(Y/N) POV

It has been a few days since I met Monty and with everyday I start to admit my feelings for him. But I just couldn't tell him. Until he shows me what I am to him.

Monty and I were out shopping for a few extra things he needed. When we got back a man named Stephono was there. He was talking to Monty and I just watched him.

I was still outside when Monty came out with the children. They got the fireproof canoe down and talked a bit. They were about to take it inside when a heavy glass reading lamp was dropped on Montgomery's head. I gasped and immediately went to him.

I wasn't paying attention to the conversation they were having with Stephono because I was checking for injuries. "You have a cut in your face. Come on let me clean it." I said. The children went to their rooms as I was patching up Monty.

I had finished and I looked at him. "Are you okay now?" I asked with concern. "Better now that you're here." He answered. I looked at him incredulously . "Are you flirting with me?" I said in shock.

I squeaked a bit when I felt a arm around my waist. I looked down and it was Monty's. Before I could say anything a pair of lips smashed against mine. I soon recovered from the shock and sank into it. We pulled apart and Monty whispered "I take it that you like me back." I couldn't speak so I nodded.

I couldn't keep my mind off that kiss. But I Stephono was suspicious he may have looked a bit different but there's something about him I don't trust.

We were at the movies and Monty went off to do something. At the end of the movie he didn't come back. I was worried. We got outside and I was looking for him until I felt someone hug me from behind. "You know it's been a long day so let's go home." Monty said. I sighed with relief because he was safe.

I went to bed and fell asleep but I was still on my guard. Because when I woke up my heart would be shattered.
