"Thanks for the meal, Sting."

""Course, Luce." Luce. How dare he call me that?

"Sting, please do not call me that."

"Sorry, Lucy. What should I call you?"

"Well is it really necessary?"

"Yeah, of course!" He pretended to think for a moment. 

"Lulu-chan!" he shouted in the dark. I laughed. I didn't hear myself laugh in such a long time.

"Sting, when I go back to Fairy Tail, should I call myself Hikari, do you think? I'm not Lucy Heartfilia anymore."

 "Lulu-chan, when you go back to Fairy Tail, call yourself whatever you want. But right now, with me, you're my Lulu-chan." I giggled, and I looked him in the eye. Instead, he brought his face closer and closed the gap. I blushed.

"Sting..."

"Lucy, did I startle you?"

"I've never been loved that much. I suppose I should thank you for that." I hugged him once again. His face turned red.

"Let's go, Sting. Lector, Frosch, and Rogue are probably worried about us." He nodded and we went to the guild, only to be surprised by Rogue, Frosch, and Lector crying their eyes out.

"What's wrong, guys?" I asked. Sting rolled his eyes.

"They've been on about me by trying to confess to you." I laughed, and they laughed along with me. I decided to sleep next to Sting for one night.

"Lushee! Don't do this!" Happy yelled at me.

"How many times do I have to tell you, Happy? I'm Hikari!"

"Why? Why are you Hikari?" A pink dragon slayer prodded and yelled at me.

"Who do you want then?"

"I want my Lucy back!"

"Your Lucy?"

"Yes!"

                "She's dead." I then requipped with my sharpest sword, and held it towards my throat.

"Lucy Heartfilia was weak. Useless. Stupid. Wouldn't it be better if she was dead?" The sword fell and pierced my throat, but I was stopped.

I got up, feeling sweat all over my body. I'm having precognitions? I thought, and pulled the covers over me, trying to fall asleep again.
