Well I know I'm still behind on replying to comments (sorry) but I figured the wait for this chapter has been long enough.

Unfortunately, like I mentioned in the notes of the last chapter, burnout did indeed creep up on me. And after I had gotten over that, something happened at my job (where I do all of my writing) that slowed down my ability to write exponentially.

I really didn't mean for it to take this long but such is life.

A couple good things, though-

This fic now has a TV tropes page! Big thank you to Sakumon16 for putting it together! I am admittedly not always the best at identifying tropes, so if you would like to add to the page, feel free! :) https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Fanfic/KeepingSecrets

Also, we have more fanart- all the way back to chapter 19 during Natsu and Irene's little heart-to-heart! Drawn by the extremely talented Eclipse306. Thank you, Eclipse! Ya'll should check out her fic, The Forgotten Prince. If you've enjoyed Keeping Secrets, you will likely enjoy it too.

Now onto the chapter!

Keeping Secrets Chapter 48- Welcome Home

"NO! I WON'T DO IT!"

"Natsu-"

"NO! YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!"

"Natsu, please-!"

"I'D RATHER GO BACK TO PRISON!"

"Knock it off, Flame Brain."

"YOU CAN'T MAKE ME IF YOU CAN'T—"

BONK

An armored hand came down—hard—on Natsu's head. The fire dragon slayer crumpled into an unconscious heap.

Erza rubbed her hands together. "Well, that takes care of that."
