Mira's POV
I laid in my new bed, it was the first day in our new house. My mind was running wild, all I could think about was the future. That and chocolate.

It was after Christmas, and I thought about how close it was to the end of the year. Wow, time flies really fast, I thought. Just a few more months and I'm going to have a brand new human in my arms. It was a weird thing to think about.

Before I realized it, my cheeks were wet with tears. I pulled my hand to my face to wipe them away. Where'd that come from?

Then I heard the door to my new room open. Checking to see if I was asleep, Freed peeked his head into the room. He gasped slightly and ran to my side when he saw my sad expression. "What's wrong?" he said, concerned.

I shook my head, "nothing's wrong." He frowned at me.

"Are you sure?" He was skeptical.

I decided that I needed to tell him what was on my mind. "Well... It's just..." I sighed deeply, the tears threatening to return. "I don't know how I'm going to handle giving up the baby." I sat up, a piece of my long white hair slipping from the bun I still hadn't my hair out of.

Freed laughed a bit, then his face turned serious. "Are you kidding? You're just as much of the baby's parent as me and Laxus are! You can visit him or her as much as you want to! Why else would we get you your own room?" He smiled and embraced me, kissing my forehead and then my stomach. "You'll always be my best friend." He whispered.

"Hey I want a kiss too," Laxus chuckled. Apparently he had been in the doorway the whole time. Freed stood up.

"He--" Laxus interrupted him with his lips.

"Hey, get a room you two." I giggle. Freed tried to free himself from Laxus' tight grip and said to me, "tell me if you need anything," before heading back into his room with Laxus.

I woke up early, it was maybe six in the morning. I slipped into the kitchen and looked into the fridge for something to eat. Seeing nothing interesting, I moved to the cupboard. I saw a giant container of peanut butter and decided that that was enough to satisfy my hunger. I grabbed a spoon from the drawer, and started shoveling peanut butter into my mouth.

Soon, I was sad again. "I'm so fat!" I yelled and slowly collapsed onto the floor. I stuck the spoon back into the peanut butter, put my head in my hands and sobbed. I envisioned the days back when I was the top model in Sorcerer Weekly and all the guys in Fairy Tail hit on me constantly. Pull yourself together, Mira. You can do this. But to be honest, I was terrified. Of everything. Be strong. Be the she-devil that everyone looks up to. Don't worry about your appearance, old Mira never did.

I still doubted myself, but I gained enough courage to stand up and put away the peanut butter. I wasn't hungry anymore.

I heard Freed and Laxus coming and quickly tried to wipe all the peanut butter from my face.

They were both in their boxers and had hilarious bedhead.

"Oh hi Mira. What are doing up so early?" Laxus asked, taking his hand from Freed's to open the fridge.

"N-no reason. Just couldn't sleep. What about you?"

"Master called us in early today. Said it was important." Freed answered, grabbing the Lucky Charms from the cupboard. They both poured their cereal and ate quickly.

I nodded and waited for them to leave. It took awhile, they got dressed, gathered their things, and talked casually. When they finally walked out the door, I realized that it wasn't actually a good thing that they had left. I was now alone in the house with all the food and my own self-loathing.
