Summary: And when the stars twinkle at night, I know you're just right there, watching me with a smile on your face, telling me to be happy.

A/N: I'M BAAACK. (well, kind of. XD) I have been AWOL for the past month and I apologize for that (especially to my beloved SHINee members <3) Hopefully, I could post more stuff. But for now, I will apologize with a three-shot. ^^ Love love. :)

I remember the trees. I remember the trees that danced in the cold autumn wind. I remember the leaves. I remember the leaves that flowed slowly down to the ground, flying in the air along with the wind. I remember him and-

I remember him.

~*~

It was a dark evening. I had a coat on, a tuque on my head, cold hands in my pocket. Walking back to my old dingy apartment with a sad heart, I started weeping. Silently, I sat down on a park bench. I stared into the night sky and sighed.

Thinking back on past events, I bowed my head. Distracting me from my thoughts, a white cat hopped on my lap and mewled. I smiled at him. Staring at me with bright blue eyes, he purred. I tilted my head to the side and he followed after me, tilting his tiny head to the side cutely.

Chuckling softly, I put him under my coat and headed home.

"I think I'll keep you."

~*~

One moment, I was watching my new cat walk inside my room.

The next moment, I came face to face with the most beautiful creature I've ever seen.

~*~

"What-How-Who-Oh my-Wh-who are you?"

He had a soft smile on his lips. He chortled softly. "I am Kibum, your guardian angel."

Strangely enough, I believed him.

~*~

Innocently gaping and gawking at himself in the mirror, he turned to me. His eyes were still wide and fairly round for someone who had cat-like eyes. He pointed at the mirror. "I can see myself!"

I couldn't help but laugh. "You've never seen a mirror before?"

He shook his head.

"But don't you watch over me?" I asked, feeling confused.

"Yes, I do." He blinked.

"I use the mirror everyday. If you watch me, then you should know what it is."  I stated.

Almost instantly, he burst out into fits of laughter. He grinned cutely as he calmed down and looked into my eyes; making me feel quite uncomfortable. "Guardian angels aren't stalkers, silly. We do not watch your every move. That would be too much, don't you think?"

"Please explain."

"We are your guardians." He said, sitting down on my bed. "We are given scrolls by messengers from Father. He sends us a list of things we may and may not permit to happen to you. Through those scrolls, we are also given orders."

"So you basically make things happen in my life?"

"No." He chuckled. "Only Father has the power to make things happen. I only guard you and shield you from harm. If there is any harm that has happened, then it is because Father instructed me not to obviate these events from happening."

I pursed my lips into a thin line. "Does God hate me, then?"

This question seemed to get his attention. He gaped at me, hands clutching tightly on the bedspread. "Father does not hate anybody! Remember that, Kim Jonghyun! Father permits these occurrences to teach you valuable lessons. These things are to challenge you, Jonghyun. They are not meant to make your life difficult. They are meant to teach you.

And because of that, I knew that being with my guardian angel would teach me more about life.

~*~

I learned soon after that angels don't eat, sleep, nor do they shower. I practically dragged Kibum inside the bathroom to bathe him.

Because honestly, he reeked.

~*~

"Hey, Kibum. Why did you come here? To the earth, I mean. And you were a cat when I saw you."

Kibum looked up from trying to read the Sunday comics. "I was ordered to stay with you."

"Then this is how you look in heaven? Minus the wings and all."

"No. This is my human form." He put down the gray paper and stared at me blankly. "This was how I looked before I turned into an angel."

I started wondering about his past life-his pre-heaven life. He was beautiful. He probably was hit on a lot when he was human. It made me wonder, did he like anyone? Was he in a relationship? What happened to him? How did he die?

All of these thoughts flooded my mind.

I figured then that I didn't want him to leave my side. I wanted him to stay with me; because I wanted to know about him more. And a part of me didn't want him to be my guardian angel anymore.
