00:00Mary no wake up my eyes blew open and I found myself on the window ledge with
00:07Magnus pulling me back in Magnus there was a fire just now it was everywhere
00:12hey slow down you were having a nightmare you're fine oh my god I got
00:17you Magnus held me close and I felt my heartbeat slowly coming back to normal
00:22it wasn't mentioned in your file that you're a sleepwalker and a potential
00:26danger to yourself I sometimes sleepwalked as a kid but I
00:30haven't in years how did you even know I heard you cry out for help across the
00:35hall in your room yeah you can be quite loud for such a tiny person well I'm
00:40pretty sure my door was locked I just kicked it open Wow
00:44I guess you're a good guy to have around for emergencies that's why you hired me
00:48right I'm just really glad I got here in time
00:50Magnus gently stroked my cheek and looked deep into my eyes and I felt like
00:55I was drowning in his my heart was beating hard as I leaned in but he
00:59suddenly drew away you should try to get some sleep now good night
01:03miss Marion and then he just left as I went to the door to close it I noticed
01:08the metal doorknob was completely crushed what kind of superhuman strength
01:13had Magnus used to open my door I thought I'd question him in the morning
01:16but I woke up to find the doorknob completely fine jeez maybe Jake was
01:21right and my overactive imagination was playing tricks on my mind but I was sure
01:26I wasn't imagining that something between me and Magnus had changed he was
01:30as serious as ever but every now and then I caught him looking at me quite
01:34intensely and a few nights later when my parents were hosting their annual
01:38Christmas party I stepped out of my room and the way his gaze lingered on me for
01:43a few extra seconds made my toes tingle how do I look Magnus oh wait sorry I
01:48forgot it's not your job to have an opinion never mind you look stunning
01:53let's go your parents are waiting I was still feeling giddy over the
01:58compliment when I went downstairs and spotted Jake among the guests in the
02:02most hideous reindeer sweater are you trying to embarrass your parents man I
02:06know your mom's too cool to make you that ugly thing so I guess your
02:10girlfriend gave it to you no I found a kidnapped six-year-old this week and her
02:14mom gave it to me as a thank-you present oh wow congratulations and it's
02:18sweet that you're wearing it I guess not all heroes wear capes and underwear over
02:22their clothes huh no some of us just wear itchy sweaters you look amazing by
02:27the way okay I'm waiting for an insult to follow I seem to be out of them right
02:33now here to dance as Jake pulled me close by the waist my tummy did a funny
02:38little flip so how are things going with Matthew it's Magnus and yeah he's
02:44great very professional you know last night I was sleepwalking and nearly
02:48jumped out of my window what but Magnus was by my side instantly he's really
02:53good at his job Magnus was in your room you know you
02:56shouldn't trust him completely he's a stranger he was there to save me and I'm
03:01supposed to trust my bodyguard with my life no yeah but he's still very new and
03:07there's something about this guy that makes me uneasy I'm still looking into
03:12his background Jake are you jealous of him what me jealous of him why would I
03:18be jealous maybe because he's devastatingly handsome and he's your ex
03:23girlfriend's bodyguard I'm very secure about the way I look and this isn't
03:27about me being hung up on us we were terrible together remember yeah the
03:32worst we argued all the time over the stupidest things do you remember we once
03:38had a fight because you kept insisting Batman's car is called Batman mobile it
03:42is called Batman mobile no it's just Batmobile I'd love to be wrong about
03:48this congratulations you are see this okay fine you're right about one lame
03:55thing can I have that in writing we both laughed it wasn't all bad right I mean
04:00when we were together no I can recall some pretty good moments Jake pulled me
04:05in even closer and their faces were inches apart when suddenly the music
04:10stopped and he abruptly pulled away oh my god was any guy gonna kiss me and why
04:15was I attracted to both Jake and Magnus and why were they both giving me such
04:19mixed signals and it only got more confusing from there Jake started making
04:24excuses to show up all the time at home even at college and I could sense
04:29Magnus wasn't really loving it hey so I was just at the farmers market and I
04:33saw this sweet old lady selling peaches and I hate peaches but I remembered you
04:37love them so I got them for you suddenly Magnus leapt forward grabbed the box
04:42from him and threw it in the trash what the heck do you know that Miss Marion is
04:47only allergic to one thing in the world and that's peaches it's true oh I knew
04:52there were some connection between you and peaches I just forgot what maybe you
04:57should read her file properly maybe you should just mind your business dude this
05:01is literally my business sir guys guys calm down no one ate peaches no one
05:07nearly died it's all good I am calm it's not like I was gonna fight Magnus over
05:13this good because you wouldn't be any match for me are you kidding me right
05:17now I'm a trained police detective so you sit at your desk all day studying
05:22cases and eating donuts it shows oh is that so well then I challenge you to a
05:27match at my boxing club tonight if Miss Marion is willing to come I'll be there
05:32what the heck was happening okay this was too entertaining not to find out I'm
05:36in
05:39Oh
05:49why did you challenge Magnus to a fight dummy because he gets under my skin well
05:55it was stupid cuz he's ripped and you're not as ripped but you still look good
06:00what's his workout routine anyway I don't know I've never seen him work out
06:04maybe he's just naturally blessed maybe you should just leave I really had no
06:09idea when Magnus did anything but late one night as I was writing at my desk I
06:14looked out the window to see Magnus walking across the backyard and I
06:18decided to follow him and I found him in a school football field lifting a
06:22massive boulder for weight training like it was nothing what on freaking earth
06:26and then he started running laps around the field at a speed that made my head
06:30spin was going so fast he was becoming a blur let out a gasp and suddenly he
06:36stopped he looked here and there for a few seconds and then quickly left my
06:40heart was pounding as my thoughts raced I ran back home to confront him and when
06:44I knocked on his door he opened it sleepily is everything okay
06:49Miss Marion no no everything is not okay don't even act like you were sleeping
06:55right now I saw you what are you talking about I saw you on the football field
07:00lifting a giant rock and running at supersonic speed have you been sleep
07:04walking again this is very dangerous don't change the subject it was you
07:09Magnus and I want to know who you really are are you even human are you giving me
07:14a compliment or interrogating me look I've been asleep for hours and I don't
07:19know what you saw but it wasn't me it's your overactive imagination I hate it
07:24when people say that I know what I saw and I I think you have superpowers well
07:30I'll admit I do have one superpower I can read minds suddenly Magnus was
07:36leaning in really close can you yeah you're thinking that I look exceptionally
07:41good right now and you know it's inappropriate but you're wondering what
07:44it would be like if I kissed you you've never been more wrong about anything in
07:48your life okay so which one is it then do I have
07:51superpowers or not I guess not I walked off to my room feeling like I was
07:56losing my mind it was definitely Magnus I'd seen in the field a theory was
08:00forming in my head and I needed to find out more to confirm it I had midterm
08:04exams the following week so I mostly kept to my room avoided Magnus as much
08:09as possible and didn't entertain Jake either but on the weekend there was a
08:13big college party at a dance club and I was determined to go your father isn't
08:18too enthusiastic about this he's been cracking down on more criminal gangs
08:22lately and he'd like you to stay out of the public eye as much as possible
08:26well can't you tell him that I'm going because I deserve some fun and you'll
08:29protect me that's why I have you around right the dance club was completely
08:33buzzing and I was having a great time when suddenly someone pulled me away
08:37from my partner it was Jake what are you doing here why haven't you been
08:41answering my calls I told you I was busy studying sure looks like it look I need
08:47to talk to you about Magnus what now something is giving you an uneasy
08:51feeling in your stomach again well yeah then either you have a crush on him or
08:56you're eating expired food either way I've lost interest in this little game
09:00you're playing what game Jake you haven't contacted me in four years and I
09:04know you don't really like me so the only explanation for you turning up all
09:09the time now is that you've got some silly ego competition going on with
09:13Magnus it's not like that okay so if Magnus is out of the picture you'll
09:17still come around maybe ask me out maybe I might but I really have
09:22something more important to talk about right now no I just want to have fun I
09:26was walking off when Jake grabbed my hand and then pulled me into a kiss that
09:31left me breathless do I have your attention now but just then Magnus was by
09:35my side pushing Jake away what do you think you're doing it's clear that
09:39you're forcing yourself on miss Marion and I want you to leave wait no that's
09:44not don't tell me what to do she's safe with me aren't you a detective it's
09:49always the ex-boyfriend who's trouble I don't trust you the feeling is mutual
09:54Jake punched Magnus and before I knew it the two had broken out into a crazy
09:58fight as a crowd gathered around them I suddenly felt a hand clamped over my
10:03mouth and some hooded man was dragging me away through a back entrance and no
10:07one was even looking at me in the chaos I tried to kick and scream but the man's
10:11grip was too strong as he led me out into a dark alley I felt panic rising
10:16in my chest when suddenly Magnus appeared and attacked the kidnapper the
10:20man pushed Magnus off with a great force sending him flying into a wall as he ran
10:25away Magnus fine fine are you okay yeah I think so I just got really scared I'm
10:33so sorry Marion hey you're bleeding just then I noticed my leg was grazed and
10:38some blood was trickling down Magnus drew a sharp breath and his face looks
10:42paler than usual what is it nothing nothing sometimes blood makes me a bit
10:48sick I'm calling the car we need to get you home
10:51where's Jake punched him into a coma hopefully Magnus he's fine I want to know
10:57exactly what happened tonight how is it that a police detective in a bodyguard I
11:01pay a lot of money to we're both there at the nightclub and my daughter nearly
11:05got kidnapped Jake is interfering with my job and his actions tonight put miss
11:10Marion in great danger you need to fire him sir I've been meeting with the
11:15people who previously hired him and what they said about him is very suspicious
11:19which is what they all said the same thing about how great he is at his job
11:24but it sounded fake like they've been hypnotized or something we were all
11:29looking at Jake like he was crazy and that's not all a few days ago I saw a
11:33tattoo on his wrist which I traced back to a dangerous criminal group that
11:38escaped prison a few years ago show us your left wrist Magnus Magnus looked at
11:42Jake silently and pulled up both sleeves and neither had any tattoo what no I saw
11:48it I'm certain of it Jake I don't know what's going on with you but you need to
11:53stay away from Marion I won't have your wild theories but my daughter's life in
11:58danger let the bodyguard do his job but I'm doing my job too and I know I'm
12:03right I don't remember hiring you for one I'm getting a restraining order
12:08against you Jake stay away Jake gave me a long look then left angrily later that
12:15night I just couldn't sleep and went up to the rooftop only to find Magnus
12:19behind me minutes later sorry I feel extra paranoid after what happened
12:24tonight you know something Magnus Jake is wrong about many things but he's
12:28right about one you've been lying about who you really are and I know who you
12:32are
12:36do
