YOU ALL HAVE THE PATINCE OF A SAINT THANK YOU !!! 

------------------  now, to the story! ☺️  --------------

You let your palm rest on the handle of the doors. 

Should you go in? 

"(Y/n), just do it." Your exceed, lily, nudged your shoulder. 

You sighed, knowing she was right. 

Well, here goes nothing. 

"Who are you, and what do you want?" A much older sting glared down at you from what seemed to be a throne, and your breath caught in your throat. 

"I SAID WHO ARE YOU?!" He snapped, hopping off the throne and striding over to stand infront of you.

You desperately wanted to speak, to tell him who you were, but no sound would come out of your mouth.

"Fine." Sting growled. "If you won't tell us who you are, the we'll gladly find out for ourselves!" 

He ripped your cloak off, and stared at you, first in triumph, then, in disbelief, slowly turning to shock. 

"(Y-y/n)?"

You looked up at him tearfully, and finally found your voice. "So you didn' forget me after all." You gave him a watery smile. 

Sting kept staring down at you, rigid, not moving an inch.

"S-sting?" You questioned, worried about what would happen next. 

"(Y-y/n)......." Tears began to form in the corners of his eyes. "(Y/n)! It's really you!" He engulfed you in a tight hug, and you embraced him back. 

"Yeah, sting. It's really me." 

"Yukino!" He shouted to a girl with short white hair standing behind the bar, who was looking at you two with a shocked yet amused expression. 

"Yes, sting?" 

"Clear the rest of my schedule for today! I need to go find lector. OUR BEST FRIEND HAS RETUNRED!" 

"Of course." As she walked twards his office, she smiled lightly. 

"So, this is the best friend when he was younger that he kept yabbering about. How cute!" And instead of clearing his schedule, she first went to the phone and called someone. 

"Hey, Mira?.....I've got a new ship for you!"
