Forgotten Heart // Fairy Tail

-Part 2-

"Hello," Senara greeted happily as she walked through the doors of Stings office, Chiharu following closely behind her. The little being hiding behind Senara, slightly scared of the new person she's being introduced to.

Barely containing his excitement, Sting took long strides to Senara, quickly reaching her. With a happy grin on his face, he engulfed Senara into a hug, breathing in her sent, "Haven," he muttered instinctively.

Stiffening quickly, Senara knew Sting didn't mean to, but it didn't stop the whispers, "he wants me. Not you."

Not catching his mistake, Sting pulled away, "was your trip here nice?" He asked, blue eyes then glancing to the little girl behind her.

Crouching, he offered her a kind smile, "I'm Sting and you must be Chiharu."

Nodding her head shyly, Chiharu didn't speak as her shyness getting the best of her. However, the smile the man offered her eased some of her anxiety but not all. After all, anyone would be wary if they wake up in the forest with no memory.

Sighing, Sting stood straight as he ushered both girls to sit on a couch in his office. While he did still have plenty of paper works to do, it could wait. Being deprived of seeing his mate for weeks took a toll on him.

"Well from what you asked of me, there really is nothing on memory loss. Though I've read something about a curse..." his voice wavered as his blue eyes casted downwards.

"A curse. You are the curse that befell on me."

Clutching her wrist, Senara attempted to not let her sadness overwhelm her. The whispers in her voice, though maybe whispers, were true. She wasn't suppose to be here, this Haven person everyone always longingly called for was, and the girl she pushed into the back of her mind knew it.

Noticing Senaras shift in change, Chiharu stared worriedly at her. Even if they haven't known each other for a long time, a bond was already forming between them. With all the kindness Senara bestowed upon her, it was hard to not get attached.

"Yukino's been doing her own research, but unless we know more about her we can't decide exactly why she can't remember anything," Sting spoke once more, rubbing the back of his neck, "I wish I can be more helpful."

Giving the blond a reassuring smile, Senara  shook her head with a small smile, "it's all right, besides you helped plenty." Standing up, Chiharu doing the same, she bowed slightly to Sting, "I wish I could spend more time with you, but I'm going to head to Fairy Tail, to see if Levi can help."

For a moment, Stings face fell as he just got his mate back but now she was leaving, "so soon? You just got here, you don't want to rest?"

"No, we'll rest on the train. You must be busy, so I don't want to intrude," the way she didn't want to meet Stings eyes were evident, her bangs covering her eyes.

Noticing this, Sting gave Lilia a look and the exceed knew what it meant. Taking the young girl and reassuring Senara that they would be outside, they left the two alone.

Walking over to her, he gently brushed his knuckles against her cheeks, "Did I do something to upset you?" Sting asked, wanting nothing but Senara to open up to him.

For a moment Senara kept her gaze on the floor, having an internal battle.

Watching worriedly, Sting was shocked when Senara snapped her head up, tears streaming out of her blue eyes. And for a moment, her black hair looked seemingly white, and how she stared longingly at Sting made his heart shatter, "Havenesa?!" He yelled out.

Shaking her shoulders, Sting snapped Senara out of whatever she was thinking, making her come back to sense of reality, "Haven!" The blond yelled out once more, "Havenesa? Are you there?"
