Lucy's pov

I just finished getting out of the shower and getting dress into comfortable clothes since it was just me on my day off, I was doing a sketch as I was singing an old song my father used to sing to me.

Dancing Bears

Painted Wings

Things I almost remember.

And a song someone sings

Once upon a December.

I smiled softly as an imaged entered my mind, I continued to sketch whatever my hand wanted to draw, phasing out a bit as the memory continued.

Someone holds me safe and warm.

Horses prance through a silver storm.

Figures dancing gracefully across my memory.

I held myself with my eyes closed and danced around my room slowly, forgetting the sketch.

Far away,

Long ago,

Glowing dim as an ember,

Things my heart

Used to know

Things it yearns to remember

And a song someone sings

Once upon a December

I frowned a bit as I remembered what I did before I left home, not knowing how he reacted to me running away for something so stupid yet meaningful to me, I can't help but feel bad for my actions

Someone holds me safe and warm.

Horses prance through a silver storm.

Figures dancing gracefully across my memory.

Far away,

Long ago,

Glowing dim as an ember,

Things my heart

Used to know

Things it yearns to remember

And a song someone sings

Once upon a December

I stopped in the middle of my living room as the song ended, I opened my eyes.

'How much longer can I continue like this? It's been years since I left home, and I deeply miss everyone. I know my sisters feel the same way'. I thought with a frown.

'What should I do? As the eldest, it's my responsibility to decide. Should we return and embrace our true selves or remain here and continue pretending for the rest of our lives?'. I thought, I sighed in frustration.

"Dammit! we don't have a choice". I said out loud, I decided to call over Juvia and Erza over for a talk.
