“Igneel, is it done?”

“Its done Lucy, you have a guaranteed match with Natsu tomorrow.” He responded

He and I had met up in the sky in human form with our dragon wings out. It was night so no-one could see our silhouette if they looked up it was quite a cloudy night but we were above the clouds so we could see all the beautiful stars and the Zodiac constellations. I looked down at the bracelet I had on, it was one I would never take off! Most people have just assumed I gave up with me being a celestial wizard when in actual fact I didn't! My keys were just shrunk down into little charms to go on my bracelet. I did this when I first started being a dragon slayer, but I could never give up the only friends who stood by me when fairy tail didn't, and with that memory in mind, my hands balled into fists.

“Tomorrows going to be a day of red! Now if you’ll excuse me I'm off to go stake out the comp! Tell my sister that I'll be back by midnight! See ya!” And with that, I was off toward the tavern where FairyTail were celebrating. I remember when we all used to celebrate together in the guild hall. That sparked, even more, rage and then…a fat tear emerged from my right eye. I don’t know why they don’t deserve my tears! The tear rolled down my cheek and I realised that I had stopped in my tracks still in the air low enough for anyone on the ground to see me, but the streets were all deserted! I watched out of the corner of my eye and saw the tear sparkle in the moonlight, it looked like a star. I quickly snatch at it smashing it before it can roll any further down my face. I wanted to move, I wanted to run, I wanted to soar, I wanted to go home! But…I couldn’t, I didn't have a home anymore, at least not at that moment I didn't. But then “Sting!”

His face flashed through my mind, his smile, his warmth, his love! I needed it and I needed it bad! I flew as fast as I could in the opposite direction of the tavern, I went to where Sting was staying.

I ran up the stairs toward the floor his room was on, no-one was around but I knew he was, I could hear and smell him with my dragon senses! I raced up to his door and busted into his room without knocking, I didn't know if he was decent or not but I knew he was alone (again dragon senses). He was laying on his bed and snapped his head toward me when I came in. The door had shut behind me without me needing to close it and I ran straight for him and he sat up and gathered me into a big hug. I started balling my eyes out. His shirt was getting wet with my tears and if he cared, he didn't show it, instead, he just said in his soothing voice “Are you OK?”

“I…I don’t know…..Why am I crying….I….I” Was my magnificent reply

“Shhhhhhhh, you're ok your safe now.” I believed him I..I knew he wasn’t lying to me, I knew that without a doubt he was the only one I could trust with EVERYTHING (other than my sister, of course)

But my tears wouldn’t stop, and I didn't know what had started them. Next time Sting spoke it wasn’t as soothing as when he had first spoken.

“Who did this to you?”

“I…ts been a long night….” I told him EVERYTHING, including how Master Igneel had gotten me a guaranteed fight with Natsu in tomorrow's round of the GMG’s. I told him that I didn't know how he managed to secure that for me, it wasn’t a lie I didn't know. Then I told him how that tear…it fell….and…. all the tears that had fallen before now. How I would often wake up from a nightmare screaming and crying and it had all started since that…that day. Then I said

“The…The tears…they just….The tears won't stop falling! And it all started the day the ones I thought to be my family….the day they betrayed me!” Then I asked the question that had been waiting on me since ….the day……the question I wanted to ask everyone close to me but never did.

“Can..can I trust you…or..w-will you betray me like THEY did.” I spit out the word “they” with so much venom I was like a snake!

He looked at me as if he was hurt, enraged & happy

“Of course, you can trust me, I'm not like those MONSTERS from fairy tail, I'll keep you safe, I would die before anything happened to you!”

I smiled back at him and then said

“I love you so much. You are the best thing that’s happened to me since…..ever! Thank you for being someone I can rely on, thank you so much for that!”

I looked into his eyes and we kissed…..the kiss was long and tender and passionate, and I leant into it greedily. It was the only thing that stopped my tears from falling!
