This story takes place after the occurrence of the Cristal King. (Season 15 Crystalized) After the monastery was rebuilt, Harumi had the chance to rethink what the next chapter will be in her life. The ninja were nice enough to let her stay at the...
"JAY! I swear to the First Spinjitsu Master. PUT ME DOWN!"
Jay was carrying me to another room. He didn't say anything. He's probably thinking of a way to either shut me up, or keep me away from the disgusting whitette. I said, "no," when Cole discussed if Harumi could stay with us. I seem to be the only one here with a mind of my own. Have they even seen what she's done to Ninjago? Wait— were they brain washed, to think that witch did nothing wrong?!
I eventually gave up trying to escape my Yin's hold. I was exhausting myself anyways. You can't keep your guard up all the time if you're tired.
Jay opened the door to his and I's bedroom. He basically threw me on to the bed after he walked in with me, and closed the door.
"Jay... What are yo-" I was cut off when he jumped on top of me, covering my mouth.
Jay usually had this cheerful personality, but now. The stern look on his face. I say with no lie, I was frightened. I was usually the one, either mad at him, or scolding him for something idiotic.
"What's wrong with having Harumi as our guest?" He said while uncovering my mouth.
I looked at him in the eyes, clearly waiting for a response from me. I sighed.
"You know how I am, Jay." I answered in a soft by serious tone. I could tell by the look on his face that he wasn't satisfied with my answer."Maybe if you got off me I'd give you an answer you'd be happy with." I eyed him.
He took a moment to think about it before he actually got off. I thought about running away from the conversation, but Jay knowing me, he held my hand so I wouldn't.
"I.....- I may have... a slight grudge on her." I told my boyfriend. "What I mean is....." I trailed off before I got to what I was saying.
Jay tilted his head to make eye contact with me. He had a consurned but calm facial expression. "Is......?" Jay asked, dragging the s.
'I just don't want Lloyd to get hurt again...... You remember how he grieved, right?" My eyes started to water, remembering how Lloyd took his heartbreak. The poor guy would hide under his bed in his quarters, and stay there until one of us would come to give him a report, on the situation with Garmadon. Or he'd walk out of the room when he heard one of us say her name. Just seeing him grieving, hurts me. I'd never want him to relive that feeling again.
Jay pulled me into a hug, noticing a tear roll down my face. I leaned into him, quietly crying into his chest.
"Yea-... I remember..." Jay gloomily answered. "Heck.. he never stopped pushing himself..... Constantly training."
He gently rubbed my back to sooth me. Eventually my crying died down. My arms were still wrapped around my boyfriend's waist, never wanting to let go.
"But-… have you heard of second chances, my little Water Lilly?"
I looked at him. He looked at me. Thinking about it now, I never considered giving Harumi a second chance. Master Wu always said; the best way to defeat your enemy, is by making them your friend. I always looked to sensei's teachings when I'm troubled. I never thought about it until now, but the hate I had towards the girl, never had me see the positives of her. Sure, she did some pretty rotten stuff to us and Ninjago. But seeing the smile on Lloyd's face when he looked at Harumi, it makes me happy. Lloyd is like a little brother to me. I'd give anything to see him smile.
"I never thought of that" I told Jay. "I was so busy wanting to protect Lloyd that I never thought of how he'd feel after what was done."
"I understand, Nya... You didn't want Lloyd to sorrow again..... If I were in your shoes, I'd do the same." Jay hugged tighter.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
At the door.
"You can come in!" I shouted to the person on the other side of the door. It opened, revealing who it was.
"Uhm-.... Am I interrupting something?" It was Harumi. I got off of Jay, surprised she came to the door. Even after the harsh glare I gave her in the lounge, and tried to attack her. I was... Shocked to say the least.
"Oh- thank the First Spinjitsu Master. She muttered. Seeming relieved. "Uhm- Nya... Sorry I don't mean to get up in your hair, but.... Could I borrow some Clothes to wear for tonight? It's not very comfortable wearing jeans to bed. Let alone the fact that the rest of my clothes are uncomfortable all together—and especially dirty."
I noticed her shift from side to side. Heh.. I might as well let her borrow my clothes. It'd be a first step to warming up to her. Besides, I could always have another girl around to get away from the boys once in a while. They can be a pain sometimes.
"Sure! Of course you can borrow some of my clothes." I say as I get up to my wardrobe, and open it up to see what I have. "Maybe you and I can go to Ninjago city with Skylor tomorrow and get you some of your own." I hesitated a little before I said that last sentence.
I looked over to Jay for comfort. He was exhausted from all the work today, he was struggling to keep himself awake. I doubt he heard half of what I said to Harumi.
"Thank you, Nya. I appreciate it. And I'd love to go to the city with you and Skylor." She said, also noticing Jay, half asleep. When walking towards me. "Oh.. and better make it quick. He looks as if he's about to crash any moment now."
I chuckled at her comment. I found a blue and white plaid pajama top and bottom in the back of my wardrobe. Harumi looked about my size. Her build is just slightly different. A bit more curves on her, than me.

(She found something like this)
"Here, this should do the trick." I said, walking over, and giving the clothing to the whitette.
She smiled. And said "thanks" before walking out of the room to change in the bathroom.
Maybe I did take her for granted. I wanted another girl friend anyways.
I looked back over to the bed to see, Jay, who finally gave in to going to dreamland. I snuck in beside him, and tried to big spoon him, which was a little hard since he's slightly bigger than me. Falling asleep with him.
