You were walking down the streets, looking down. You had been upset ever since you had been kicked out of Sabertooth for losing a battle at the grand magic games. You were a first generation Sapphire Dragon Slayer, but when you go up against Erza 'Titania' Scarlet, there is really no competition. You had put up a good effort and hadn't lost by much, but the master had still kicked you out. You were pretty sure that Minerva had somehow convinced him in some way, but you had no proof. And you were kicked out anyways.

After leaving Sabertooth, you had been fearful of going to any other guilds, and decided to work harder on finding your Dragon parent, (D/N). So far, you hadn't had really any luck. Currently, you were leaving the small city where you had stayed for a little bit.

"(Y/N)?"

You frowned and turned, seeing Sting Eucliffe from Sabertooth. You two had been very good friends back when you were in Sabertooth, but after you left you had grown quite distant from him.

"(Y/N)? Is that you?" He asked.

Keeping your frown you turned away, wanting to get away from him. Not necessarily because you hated him, but you had once had a crush on him...and you were kinda embarrassed to face him again.

"(Y/N), wait!" You heard Sting call. However, you just continued to walk away from him, and soon you had reached the outskirts of the city and had left, walking up to sit on a small hill for a moment. You had seen Sting again...you couldn't believe it!

"You know, you don't hide too well."

Gasping, you turned to see him again. Sting walked over and sat next to you, smiling. "How've you been?" He asked.

You sighed, looking away from him. "I-it's been n-nearly a whole y-year and you c-can only come up with s-small talk?"

He chuckled. "Still the same old (Y/N) I see." Then he frowned. "You're stuttering, though. Why?"

You sighed. "I-I don't k-know."

"What happened?" Sting asked, putting a little bit of a warning tone in his voice.

"W-well, I've been searching f-for (D/N), a-and so far n-no luck." You told him.

"And that bother's you?"

You looked at him. "Yes."

He smiled. "(Y/N), this journey is going to be the death of you. Why don't you come back to Sabertooth?"

Pain flashed through your eyes. "I-I c-can't."

"Why not?"

"M-Master won't w-want me b-back-"

"Oh, him." Sting rolled his eyes. "You don't have to worry about him, (Y/N). When he tried to kill Lector, I killed him. I'm the Master now."

You gasped. "Y-you...k-killed him?!"

Sting nodded. "And I would like to say that it would be an honor to have you return, (Y/N)."

You gave him a tiny smile. "W-well...I-I'll have to th-think about it."

Sting smiled brightly. "That's great to hear." He leaned over and kissed your cheek, making you blush like a tomato and your eyes widen. "Think about it." He then stood up and started to walk away.

For a second you were paralyzed, before you took in a deep breath. "Sting!" You called, standing up.

He stopped and looked back to you. "Yes, (Y/N)?"

You took another deep breath in. "I'll be coming over tomorrow to take a look around!"

He flashed you a smile. "Great choice!" He called. "I'll see you tomorrow then."

You sighed and turned around, preparing to walk off...

..."I love you, (Y/N)!"

"S-Sting?! Wh-what are you s-smirking at?! G-get back here, y-you baka!"
