For the rest of the day yesterday, we talked about the competition. What's going to happen, what we should do on free days. Things like that.

When it was time for dinner, we sat with Igneel and Jenna in the cafeteria. Jenna said she was going to convince Gabe and Genevieve into helping us. She said they were both really smart and they like to read. I guess a little extra help wouldn't hurt, but I don't want a lot of people in on this.

After dinner, we walked back to our room. We took our turns in the bathroom and then got ready for bed. Blake was shirtless again, so I of course was a blushing mess and couldn't stop staring. He caught me looking, but just smiled when I looked away.

I was already in bed, getting ready to go to sleep, the lights were all off except for the lamp on the nightstand, and everything was quite. Then I heard the creaking of a bed, Blake probably got up to get something. I heard footsteps walking over to my bed, my eyes closed the whole time. Then I felt a pair of hands cup my face, and a kiss on the forehead.

"Sweet dreams, Luna." I heard Blake say, then he turned off the light. Luckily, I controlled my blush until he got to his bed.

Why would he do that? I thought he had a thing for Jenna, or maybe he doesn't and was just being nice. Maybe he likes me. Maybe...

That's when I fell asleep, I probably had dreams about him, but I don't remember exactly.

When I woke up, Blake was already up. He was sitting on his bed while eating some cereal and watching something on a large lacrima. Did I mention he was still shirtless?

I slowly got out of my bed, and walked to the bathroom to make myself look presentable. I brushed my teeth, and put my hair into a messy ponytail. I decided to skip breakfast today, I had a large dinner last night anyways.

When I walked out, I went to the closest to pick my outfit for the day. I picked a black skirt with a gold trim, a simple white tank-top, and a black jacket also with gold trim. I picked out a pair of black sandals and went back to the bathroom to change.

I got out and was ready for the day. Blake was still in the same spot he was when I woke up.

"Is that what you plan on doing all day?" I asked.

"No, I'm helping you remember." He said, not even looking up. "And there's a dance we have attended."

Oh yeah, I forgot about the dance. "What are we even supposed to wear to that?" I asked.

"There should be a dress in your closet."

I waked over to my closet and looked through all the clothes. Then something in the very back caught my eye, so I pulled it out.

It was a beautiful black dress, with lace sleeves and a low back. It went down just above my knees. The lace was covered in pink and gold glitter. It was maybe the prettiest dress I've ever seen. I can believe I get to wear it.

I put the dress back in the closet and sat next to Blake on his bed.

"You gunna get ready to go or not?" I asked him.

"I will when this is over." He replied.

"What are you even watching?" I asked, now looking at what was playing on the lacrima.

"It's an interview about the guilds, and the competition. The guild masters are talking about why we should join their guilds."

The lacrima showed five different adults. They were all sitting at a long table with microphones in front of them.

I noticed the different guilds. Fairy Tail, Sabertooth, Mermaid Heel, Lamia Scale, and Blue Pegasus. One guild master stood out to me, he was sitting in the end, and he looked much younger than the other masters.
