A/N: Cheers to Alexa for creating a JeNa Army XD I'm surprised no one's attempted to murder me yet

I'm gonna try and make this chapter more happy. Okay? No more crying. For now...

I also feel like I was hit by a truck so I will have plenty of time to update. Yay.....

Storm's POV

I opened the door the the hospital room and walked in, my footsteps echoed on the floor.

Nashi had an IV in her arm and two tubes in her nose. She stared blankly at me with tired eyes and gave me a sad smile. I like her smile but I would prefer a joyful one.

I kneeled next to her and took the hand with the IV in it since the other one had a cast, "How you doin', Nashi?" I asked gently and lightly stroked her hand.

"I'm alive," Nashi said weakly with playfulness in her tone. "I can see that," I chuckled and brushed a piece of her hair out of her face.

"Do you need anything?" I asked the angel lying next to me. "Nothing you can give me," Nashi sighed and I bit my lip.

"Okay," I kissed her forehead. "Storm," she shook her head lightly, "Please...don't."

"Okay," I frowned.

I loved Nashi and I wanted her to love me. But I knew I couldn't just run into it. I'd have to be patient and respect her wishes.

"I just want you to know," I looked into her chocolate orbs and smiled, "I'm here for you. Whenever you need me."

She gave me a gentle smile, "Thank you, Storm."

"You're welcome, Angel. Now get some rest." I drew my fingers over her eyelids and slowly closed them.

After her chest started to move in a slow rhythm I sat down in the couch across from her hospital bed.

Nashi's POV

When I woke up Storm was sitting on the couch staring at me intently with his blue eyes. "Is it morning yet?" I groaned as my eyes adjusted to the light.

"Yep," Storm smiled warmly. I blinked my eyes a couple of times, "Have you been here...all night?"

"Of course," He grinned at me proudly as if that was on his life bucket list. "You didn't have to," I insisted.

"Of course I did. What kind of friend ditches their love a hospital? That's just jacked up." He chuckled.

I giggled.

Storm's POV

When she giggled my heart felt aflutter. I made her laugh. For the first time in eight months. I felt accomplished when her angelic giggle filled the air, it was like a siren's music to man's ear.

Even if it was that one half-heart chuckled it filled me with joy that she was, even if slowly, returning to her normal self.

"What's with the goofy grin?" She inquired with an awkward tone of voice. "Oh nothing. I'm just glad that you're feeling better."

Nashi blushed slightly, those little pink bushes brought out her eyes even more. "I'm glad that you care," she smiled.

"Why wouldn't I?" That's the truth. Why wouldn't I care about the woman I love? Even if I do miss Jellal, there was no more competition. And that was the only bright outcome. And a selfish one at that.

Her rosy cheeks became a darker tone at those words. She looked better already to be honest.

There was a knock at the door, "Come in." I announced.

Nashi's POV

A nurse entered the room with a tray of food. My stomach growled at the sight.

I hadn't even realized what I was doing those past eight months. My mind was in some kind of trance that I didn't even think about what's necessary to live. I didn't focus on anything except for the fact that Jellal had died. And when Storm came, he somehow, but slowly, woke me up.

"Thank you," I told the nurse with a smile. "Of course," the nurse returned my grin.

"You should be able to leave this place today, but you'll have to be in a wheelchair for the rest of the week. Then you'll be able to walk again and rejoin your Magic Guild. Fairy Tail right?" Her eyes flashed to my pink emblem on my hand.

"Yeah," I chuckled frailly. "Well, I heard it is an amazing guild Nashi-san." She said while putting more medicine into my IV.

"It is," I assured as I felt liquid flowing through my vein.

"Well, you're free to go when you're done eating. We've given your parents the prescription." She opened the door and rolled her wheel chair into the room.

I nodded and she left Storm and I alone in peace. I ate the sandwich and salad she gave to me quickly and I was done within five minutes ignoring the awful flavor. I jugged down my water and put it too the side.

I looked up to seen Storm staring at me with wide eyes, "What?" I asked obviously clueless.

"You really chucked that down," He said seriously then burst into laughter. "Well I haven't eaten in a while," I pouted and bit my lip.

"Hehe, it's okay, love." Storm chuckled.
Love? That's what Jellal called me before he....

Tears threatened to spill and I clenched my fists.

"Nashi?" Storm asked nervously, "Did I say something?"

I felt like a hammer was hitting the back of my head in a slow rhythmic beat and the vision came back. Everything. From the moment he called me love to his death.

I clenched my head in my hands and rocked back in forth panting. My eyes darting every which way.

Storm's POV

"Nurse!" I called when I saw Nashi start to curl up in a ball of insanity. The nurse quickly rushed in, her white gown batting back and forth.

"She's had an emotional trauma lately. She probably have déjà u, recall, vision or whatever you may call it." The nurse explained and touched her dark colored hand to Nashi's pale one.

"Shhhhhh. Nashi-san, everything will be alright. It's okay." The nurse comforted Nashi and gently rubbed and stroked her.

Nashi took a deep breath and released her arms from around her head, "I'm sorry," she whispered and let a couple tears fall from her face.

"It's okay, Nashi-san. It will continue to happen as a side effect of your trauma by things that remind you of Jellal-kun." The dark haired nurse whispered and gently stroked Nashi's salmon hair.

"Thank you," Nashi looked up with a gentle but forced smile plastered on her face.

The nurse smiled down at Nashi then walked over to me and bent down so her lips were at my ear, "If this ever happens again just comfort her. It's the best way to help."

I nodded to the nurse with a thank you and helped Nashi step out of the bed and into her wheel chair. Natsu, Lucy and Luke had to go on an S-Class job to pay the hospital for Nashi's stay and medicine.

I brought Nashi to the car and lifted her out of the midnight colored wheelchair then set her up into the seat. She smiled at me and I smiled back as I folded up the wheelchair and set it beside her.

Hopefully, she would be her normal self soon.
