"Cool indeed.."

------------------------------

You slap his arm and pull down your shirt, yelling, "PERVERT!"

"Can we do that once we get to Sabertooth?" Sting smirks, "I have a room there big enough for fun tim-"

You slap his face as hard as you possibly can. "MY. GOD. EUCLIFFE, YOU HAVE NOT EVEN ASKED ME ON A DATE YET, AND YOU'RE ASKING FOR INTERCOURSE?"

"Eh."

-did I forget to mention you
bought your own house?-

You wake up the next day, alone in your home, or, at least you thought you were alone. You, still in your pale (f/c) nightgown, make your way to the small kitchen.

"Mm... Is that.. Bacon?" You mutter, taking a whiff of- wait.. If you smell bacon, then-

"Morning!" You lay your eyes on the blond light dragon slayer wearing an apron.

"You.. How the... What the.."

"Mirajane has a spare key to everyone's apartment for some reason. That's why everyone can come into Lucy's house as they please."

"Wait, WHAT?" You look over to your couch and see Team Natsu. Every. Single. One of them.

"WHY THE HELL ARE YOU GUYS IN MY HOUSE?" You shriek.

"Yo." Gray says, shirtless.

"Hi!" Lucy smiles and waves.

"What's up?" Natsu grins.

"Good morning." Erza nods her head.

Happy flys into your face. "Do you have fish?"

"Sumimasen, (Y/N)-Chan.." Wendy lowers her head.

Carla rolled her eyes, glaring at everyone else. "These idiots dragged us along with them."

"Right then.. I will allow you to stay-" You get cut off by their cheers, "BUT, you have to follow the three M's,
My House
My Stuff
My Rules, GOT IT?" The cheering dies down, and you smirk with satisfaction. "Yes, including you, Sting." You add.

"We're not gonna leave, still." They say in unison.

Silence.

"Ahem.. Bacon?" Sting proudly holds up a pan with bacon on, still hot and sizzling.

-later-

Breakfast was over, and yet, they were STILL in your house. You shoo them all out, but Sting remains.

"Sting! Out!" You try pushing him, but your hands remain on his... Highly... Defined.. abs. You blush and immediately take your hands off.

"C'mon." He pulls you into the bedroom and sits down next to you. "Something's wrong."

"I'm fine." You mutter, getting up.

He grabs your arm. "That vision, that messed you up. Something's wrong, what did you see?"

You feel hot tears in your eyes, but shake it off, not wanting to share what you saw.

"Please. (Y/N).."

You reluctantly nod your head, and begin to tell him.

***

"Wha.." He shakes his head. "Tell me everything, your past, I mean."

"..I had a family.. Back before the orphanages.. I lived with them for a bit, and for a while, I had a wonderful family, a caring mother, and a happy father.. One day.. My mother.. She.. Left. My father worked overtime, but put on a smile nonetheless. Little did I know, my mother was the key to his sanity. I still remember the day. My mom told me that she was leaving, and to not tell my dad.. I was heartbroken, but she promised to visit. She told my father that she was going on an errand, and that she'd come back later. My dad believed her. He waited long and patiently, but one day.. He just.. Broke. He went insane, repeating over and over that she'd come back any minute. He overworked himself and never let himself out of his study unless it was to eat or sleep. Eventually, he stopped talking to me, and when he did, he was engulfed in rage.. I don't know why, but now he hates me, so.. One day, I cracked. I was broken. I ran away, swearing to never come back to that dreadful place ever again. I don't know why he was so angry at the time, but now I do. My mother died in a 'gruesome incident' that day.. From that point on, I considered myself an orphan, and went into an orphanage, changing my last name. Somewhere in the middle, I started having dreams, with Wessologia and Artemis, the Moon Goddess. (Ahem, GREEK MYTHOLOGY.. Percy Jackson :3) after that, I started getting visions. By that point I was about eleven, and that's when I met you and Rogue." You forget that you were talking to Sting as tears run down your face. He sits there in disbelief, then nearly tackles you in a hug, kissing every inch of your face as if it would make everything better. And in all honesty, it did. Soon enough you felt pressure on your back.

"(Y/N)!" Happy wails, clinging on to you. You mentally freak out, seeing everyone else.

"HOW THE HECK DID YOU-"

"WE HEARD EVERYTHING!!" They wail. You try to pull away the crowd hugging you, Team Natsu, plus Sting, and-

"ROGUE, LECTOR, FROSCH WHEN DID YOU-"

"I FEEL SO BAD FOR YOU!"

"FRO THINKS SO TOO!"

You quickly pull away from all of them. "Thanks, but that doesn't matter anymore." You wipe away tears, clearing your throat. "That's in the past, besides, I have a family now."

"Aww," Natsu puts an arm around you, "I love you too, lil' sis."

"Go away." You mutter, pushing him away.

"Actually.. I haven't been at the guild since the fight." You think aloud. "I think I'll make my way over there now."

-also, just pretend that you put on actual clothes instead of your nightgown-

After that hugging fiasco, you make your way over to the guild hall where the others are waiting. Simply thinking about what awaits you there makes you dizzy. Even when you walk down the street, you can hear multiple voices, murmuring about the fight.

"That's her!"
"Man, would I like to take her out.."
"I heard she's dating the guy she was fighting alongside."
"What are you idiots talking about, she doesn't need a man, she's so strong!"
"In all honesty, I think she should become one of the wizard saints."
"Too bad no one knows much about her."

You shrug off the comments and muttering, now at a quick pace, rapidly making your way to the guild hall. You throw open the doors, saying, "WHAT UP, FAIRY TAIL? (Y/N) HAS RETURNED IN ALL OF HER GLORY!" 'That's the first and last time I'm ever doing that,' you think. "ON SECOND THOUGHT, IGNORE ME AND GO BACK TO YOUR BUSINESS!" You add. You realize you've made a big mistake. Everyone in the guild runs over to you, asking questions and praising you, plus the occasional "FIGHT ME AGAIN!" From Natsu or Gajeel.

You walk over to the rest of team Natsu, covering yourself with a moon drip barrier.

"Hey, guys?" You ask. They look at you with questioning looks. "Can you promise not to tell anyone about..?"

"Oh, of course!" Lucy grabs your hands. "You can count on us! Well.. At least me. I know Wendy, Carla, Erza, and probably Gray can keep it secret but Natsu..."

"Oi! What do you mean, 'probably'?" Gray snaps.

Natsu rushes over, "I HEARD MY NAME, DID (Y/N) ACCEPT MY REQUEST TO FIGHT?"

You growl, and radiate a fiery aura similar to Erza when she's mad. "Go. Away. Natsu."

"You're being a LOT more open with your feelings now, huh?" Erza smiles.

"Yeah, I guess. I had.. Help." You blush, remembering Sting and your conversation. (HAH, I DIDN'T WRITE IT SO THERE'S NOTHING TO REFERENCE YOU TO!)

"Ohh, so Sting helped you.." Lucy smirks teasingly.

"Someone mention my name?" The doors burst open, revealing none other than the light dragon slayer himself.

A/N - WAZZUP? Let's have a conversation:
Bonjour, Que t'apelle tu?
Me llamo Emily, y tu?
-cue you saying your name-
Hajimemashite, (Y/N)-San!

Did I just create a conversation using French, Spanish, and Japanese? Yes I did. Do I have any regrets? NOPE. Also, the French won't translate directly, but 'Que t'apelle tu' is an EXTREMELY simplified version of 'What is your name' or 'What do you call yourself'. Right then, that's your fun fact for the day, I'LL BE OFF NOW! *flies away Mary Poppins style*
