This is the main music of this story. It has intensity and I love how it just sounds so mysterious.

"A party in the woods? Who will be there though?" I asked.

"The school will be there! It's a small night out with our classmates. So, would you like to come with me?" Levy asked through the phone, and I smiled.

"Hmm, fine. I'll go with you. It's nothing formal, right?"

"Nope. Not at all. Plus, it'll be freezing in the cold. Wear something cozy."

I nodded my head and lay down on my bed.

"Got it. It's tomorrow, correct?"

"Yep! Can't wait!"

I chuckle and look at the ceiling.

"Levy, do you ever miss her?"

"Yes. Of course I miss her. She's our best friend. I can't believe she left town."

"Yeah, hopefully she comes back so we can all catch up."

There was a slight pause in our conversation and I yawned.

"Levy, I'll catch you up tomorrow. Goodnight."

"Okay. Goodnight, Lu-chan."

I end the conversation and leave my phone down on the bedside table.

I turn off my lamp and get comfortable on my bed.

Erza...when are you coming back?

The next day, bright light flashes as my eyes were shut close.

Someone opened my curtains!

"Agh! What the hell? I'm trying to sleep here, y'know?" I go to the other side and face my back against the window, my eyes still close.

Wait, who the hell is in my house?

I open my eyes and sit up from bed, gasping as I saw the person sitting down on my bed with a smirk.

"Hey Lucy. I'm back home."

"Erza!"

I jump towards her way and give her a hug.

"God, I missed you so much! Where have you been in these past 3 years?!"

"I've been...quite busy."

I break the hug and smile at Erza. She definitely has grown into a beautiful woman.

"You look amazing, Erza."

"Oh, you do too, Lucy. I see that you have grown your hair length up to your waist."

"Thank you. H-How did you get here? How have you been?"

"I'm doing great. I'm really happy that I came back! It really took me like a...," she snaps her fingers and continues. "To get here."

"Really? Rosemary is really far away if you ask me."

"Somehow, I manage to get here in a day."

"But it's a two day journey–"

"That doesn't matter. What matters is that I'm finally back with you guys."

I smile and look down at my hands.

"Levy misses you...so much. Wanna surprise her?" I said, smirking.
