~No one's P.O.V.~

Lisanna sighed to herself and rested her her chin onto the palm of her hand. "What's wrong Lisanna?" Mira, her big sister, asked. Lisanna sighed and shook her head.

"Nothing Mira-nee," she answered boredly. Mira wasn't satisfied with that answer.

"No, there is something wrong," she frowned. "So you better tell your nee-chan before she has to do something drastic." Lisanna froze and fearfully turned her head to face her sister. She was giving off a deadly aura, which Lisanna, being siblings, knew that wasn't such a good thing.

"W-well..." she stuttered, heat creeping onto her face. She glanced at a certain man and puffed out her cheeks. "I'd wish he would notice me..." Mira, sensing the idea, brightens.

"Who would this he be??" she asked, looking around the guild to see who her little sister was talking about. She saw Natsu and Gray fighting, Macao and Wakaba drinking, and the Rajinshu talking with Laxus. 'Odd, where's Bixlow?' Mira frowned, then snapped her fingers. 'That's right, he went on that solo mission.'

"J-just someone.." Lisanna answered, suddenly finding her white shoes interesting. Mira puffed out her cheeks in frustration.

"Moh, just tell you big sister!" Mira begged, looking at her with big eyes. She loved manipulating other people's love lives, just not her owns.

"C-can I please not say..?" Lisanna pleaded, her face the color of a certain requip mage's hair. Mira sighed.

'I'll be merciful, just this once,' she thought in her head. "Okay, can you atleast tell me why he's bothering you?" Mira paused for a bit and blinked, a certain thought getting into her head. "I-it is a he....right?" Lisanna's eyes widened and she punched her big sister in the arm.

"Of course it is!" she half-yelled. "Moh, Mira-nee, don't go that far!"

"Gomen gomen," Mira sweatdropped and smiled. "Anyways, why is he bothering you?"

"Iya, he's not bothering me," Lisanna replied. "It's just that....he never sees me for..me you know?" Mira nodded in understanding.

"Well, maybe you should talk to him," she suggested with a supportive smile. "Get him to see you for you." Lisanna looked down.

"But he doesn't talk to me that much, only to say how or to see how I'm doing.."

Mira smiled and put a hand on her little sister's shoulder. "You can do it Lisanna," she encouraged. "I know you can." Lisanna looked up and thinly smiled at her.

"Mm, arigato," Lisanna smiled and stood up. "Well, gotta go. Maybe I'll try it. Ja ne Mira-nee!" Mira smiled as she watched her leave the guild. 'Good luck, Lisanna,' she encouraged her mentally.

"Yo Mira, more beer for the Rajinshu!" Laxus smirked, holding up his empty beer mug.

"Hai!" she responded cheerfully.

~Le Timeskip~

Lisanna leisurely walked down the stone path of Magnolia. She looked up into the sky. The moon was full and right in the middle, stars surrounding it. 'I wonder when he'll be back,' Lisanna thought to herself. She didn't like to admit it, but she kinda missed him. His crazy ways were, for some weird reason, funny to her. Whenever she needed cheering up, he was always there for her. However, for the last couple of weeks, she's been kind of mad at him. Whenever she was around him, he would say "hi" or "hey" and ask her how she's doing, then walk away to talk with the Rajinshu. Or, if that wasn't the case, he'd be his normal self, but only say that her soul was....honestly, she didn't know what he was talking about, only that it had something to do with her soul. His "babies" repeating everything that he said wasn't helping either. 'Why can't he see me for me?' she thought sadly.

"Yo." Lisanna froze at the sound of that voice. She slowly looked up with a fake smile plastered on her face.

"Hey," she greeted back. "Back from your solo mission I see?"

"Yup," Bixlow answered with his crazy smile.

"Yup! Yup!" his babies echoed.

"So...how you've been?" he asked slowly, rubbing the back of his neck.

"Good," Lisanna shrugged nonchalantly. Bixlow silently gulped.

"You sure, because your soul is-" There were not many people with great patience, but Lisanna was one of the few who had that kind of ability. Unfortunately, that sentence broke her last nerve.

"Why can't you just see me instead of my soul!" Lisanna suddenly shouted. It caught Bixlow off guard. He had never heard Lisanna raise her voice before. "You always talk about my soul and all that crap, but why can't you just see me? The real me and not my soul?!" Those last few words echoed in the air, making every breathing creature freeze. No human was near them at that time, so it left a tense silence. Bixlow froze, not sure what to do. Lisanna waited for him to say something, but since nothing ever came, she let out a deep breath. "Gomen," she muttered, feeling a bit guilty. "I-I....I'll be going now.." She turned around to leave, but was abruptly stopped by someone grabbing onto her arm. She lightly gasped and face slowly flushed red. The person grabbing ahold of her arm muttered something that was indistinct to her, but a couple seconds later she heard whooshing sounds of 5 things in the air.

"Wait," Bixlow bluntly said. Lisanna silently gulped.

"W-what..?" she responded shakily. Lisanna could hear him take a shaky breath, but remained silent.

"I...I didn't mean to make you mad," he muttered. Her eyes widened, but she still kept quiet. "I'm sorry I've been avoiding you these past couple of weeks, but there's just this weird feeling I get nowadays. Like, I'd be talking to the Rajinshu normally, but then when you come along my legs start to feel weak and my heartbeat accelerates." A gasp escaped Lisanna's lips as Bixlow turned her around so that her face was inches away from him. She could feel her face start to burn even more as she realized that he had taken off his mask. They both gazed into each other's eyes; Lisanna into Bixlow's glowing green eyes and Bixlow into Lisanna's oceanic blue orbs. A warm smile creeped onto Bixlow's lips. "But, you know," he started, then paused so that he could lean closer towards her. "I could always see you, Lisanna Strauss."
