Sting's POV

"So, how does Frosch look?" The white haired girl next to me asked.

"Well, he's small. He is green. He wears a frog costume." Lector explained and I glanced at him.

For some reason I was glad I got to spend a little more time with Yukino. She seemed like a good girl. She was pretty hot too.

"So, maybe the park?" She suggested.

"That's a good idea. Fro and Rogue go there a lot."

We continued walking towards the park in complete silence. It wasn't awkward it was just the tension between us from what happened earlier wouldn't go away.

-Flashback-

"Where's the bathroom?" Yukino asked as the greeting from our master met its end.

"Um, there's one in each room," I explained, "Come! I'll let you use mine."

"A-arigatou." She bowed to which I laughed a little.

"What are you bowing down for?"

"I-I..." Yukino trailed off unsure of how to continue.

"Well," I shrugged opening the door to my room for her, "It's a bit messy but-"

At first, I didn't believe it. I went back to the entrance to see if I've entered the right room. Room 226 exactly. But that didn't look like my room.

Everything was clean -no food on the ground, no dirty clothes on the ground, no garbage on the ground. And who could've guessed my rug was white?! It's been so long I haven't seen its natural bright color.

"Is this it?"

I snapped my head towards Yukino as she pointed towards my storage room. It was more like a big wardrobe.

"Yes." I said without thinking.

Yukino opened the door and before I could stop her she jumped back.

Another girl walked out of my closet. I mentally facepalmed. Her whole face was red from sleeping for too long and she wore only a shirt -my shirt. It was too big for her so one sleeve had slipped down revealing her shoulder. I stared right into her sea-green eyes in shock.

"Sting-kun?" The girl called out sleepily and yawned, "Where have you been? And who is this?"

"It's the other door," I told Yukino.

Yukino's POV

I couldn't believe this guy. He was hiding a girl in his closet. That wasn't really normal.

"It's the other door."

"Eh? Ah, hai."

I opened the opposite door that thankfully led to the bathroom. I closed it behind me as I heard Sting half-yell.

"...you were supposed to leave afterwards, weren't you? Then, what are you doing here?"

The girl laughed as she was walking around the room apparently searching for her clothes.

"Don't be mad. I cleaned your room. It was a real," She made a pause, "Mess. But you couldn't expect less after-"

I heard Sting shushing her, "We are not alone. And I don't remember doing anything. I don't remember anything from yesterday- Did you use your charm on me?"

Charm? Is that girl able to control people's memories?

"Yare, yare, that's a horrible accusation."

"Did you do it?" Sting demanded more serious.

"Maybe," I heard Sting tsch-ing, "But you know it only works on people willing to go with it."

"Willing to go with it?! You used magic to make me...make me..."

"That's right. You don't remember anything you did. But, I'll be glad to remind of every little detail."

"You disgust me."

"Is that so," The girl giggled, "Didn't sound like that yesterday."

"Get out!" Sting yelled.

"You're acting strange all of a sudden, huh? Is it because of that girl? I haven't seen you with women. At least not before night falls."

"I said get out!"

"Fine, fine. I know when I'm not needed. But still, that's not like you, Sting, you usually...go with it."

I heard the door slam and immediately went towards the sink turning it on. The cold water started spraying down but I didn't care about it one bit.

So, he's quite the womanizer, huh?!

-End of Flashback-

"Hey, are you okay?" I heard Sting ask, getting me out of my trance.

"I'm fine thank you. Nē, Sting-kun, can I ask you something?"

He waited a few seconds before casually nodding, "Sure."

"Etto..."

Suddenly, a hand was put around my mouth and I was pulled down behind a bush.

"Do not move." Sting said holding his finger up to tell me to be quiet.

"What is happening?" I whispered.

Even thou it was already dark, his grin was quite visible.

"See for yourself."

He pointed towards a near bench. At first I only saw black figures but once my eyes adjusted to the light I gasped.

"We found them." Sting whispered laughing quietly.

There they were! Rogue had his hand around Rose's shoulder as she had put her head on his chest. In the middle was a small pink frog or it was actually an Exceed -Frosch I would assume. All of them were sleeping even Rogue which surprised me most.

"Should we wake them up?" I asked as Sting thought for a second.

"We can't leave them sleeping on a bench in the park," He murmured, "Where's a video lacrima when you need one? Then, let's go."
