After leaving the guild, I felt lighter than before, free. I didn't have a worry in the world. Things I used to care about didn't seem to matter as much. I was in love with the guy of my dreams and for once the feeling was mutual. He is caring and loving and doesn't mind showing it. When he holds me he makes sure he is gentle and that every touch is a gesture of his affection. I can't imagine not feeling like this because the only way I wouldn't feel like this is if Sting is out of my life and I know that our story has only just begun.

Once I entered fairy tail I was met with Makarov. "Thank god you are here. I need you to go on this mission today. It's a small one, nothing serious but no one else will do it." I scanned the job description and I understood why no one wanted it. The job was boring, far away and the pay was bad. "Sorry Makarov but can you find someone else to do it."

"What! But don't you need money?" He raised his eyebrows at me.

"The money I would make from this wouldn't even cover the travel costs to get there."

As I was about to turn away he blurted out, "Please do this for me. The guy who made the mission is long-time friend and only trusts my guild to handle his issues. I can't let him down." I felt bad. It's pretty hard for me to say no to anyone so I agreed. The downside to the situation was that I wouldn't get to see Sting for a couple of days. I need to call him and tell him not to come tonight. I was really looking forward to it.

"Hey baby" At the sound of his voice my heart flutters

"Hey'

"I can't wait for tonight." That was all that was on my mind before and I have a feeling that is all that will be on mind while I'm gone.

" About that, I'm being forced to go on this mission so I can't make it tonight." I hear him sigh through the phone "Don't worry about it there will be plenty of opportunities for such activities." I smiled, glad that he didn't try to guilt-trip me. He's a guild master he gets that responsibilities sometimes have to come first. "'I promise I'll make it up to you" I knew what he was going to say next, "How?" I could feel the smirk on his face through the phone. "You're just gonna have to wait and see."

When I got to my hotel I lay on my bed to go to sleep. I couldn't seem to remember the last time I actually went to sleep on a bed right away. Me and Sting would always engage is some type of sexual activity until we couldn't anymore. The sex we've been having is mind-blowing. It is on my mind all the time. Whenever I'm with him I want him and when I'm not I crave him. Just thinking about him now makes my urges go wild. If I told him any of this he would tease me until I begged for him and even then he would probably still continue to tease me.

The next morning I completed the mission which was looking for his cat. His cat was hiding in a bush on his lawn. Then I had to help him find his dog and bird which were all hiding in plant structures. I didn't think I would complete the mission so early so I arrived back home early. I went to Sting's apartment and asked Rouge earlier for a key so I could surprise Sting. I logged the door open and could hear Sting arguing with someone. It was a girl

"So am I supposed to pretend like the other night didn't happen"

"Yes, I told you it was a mistake." A mistake? What is he talking about

"You told me you wanted me." This can't be what I think.

"It was mating season I was not thinking clearly." Without thinking I ran in there and immediately began questioning Sting.

"What are you talking about?" Sting looked surprised to see me there like his worst nightmare had turned out to be real. "Sting! What is she talking about?" Sting's state of shock went away and was replaced by anger. He glared at the girl and said, "you need to leave now." He then began to stare at me and I at him until the girl left his house. My voice began to break down as I asked, "what is happening?" His eyes softened as he said "The night you ran away. I was upset and needy so I ..." He paused for a moment and then continued "I slept with the first girl I could find." What I had feared the most happened. But I refused to cry. I wouldn't let him see me fall. I wanted to make him feel as insignificant as I felt to him.

"I still love you. We can get through this." I almost laughed at what he said. Yet, plainly and coldly I responded,

"No, we can't. If you truly cared about me you wouldn't have tried to hurt me purposefully."

With that statement, I exited his home and the moment I was in the clear the feelings I tried to hide from him came pouring out on the side of the street. Before I knew it, Rogue came up to me. It felt like my world was falling apart and like I couldn't breathe. I began gasping for air and with tear glazed eyes I asked: "how could he do this to me?" He held my body in his embrace but I fought against him. The harder I fought the more he held me and suddenly I couldn't fight anymore and all I could do was stand there and cry while repeatedly asking "why?"

Rogue took me home and laid me on my couch. My tears dried up and I was finally able to form sentences. Rogue didn't ask me what happened. Without me saying anything he carried me into his arms and lifted me home. "Thank you" These were the first words I've said to him. "Do you need anything?" He asked. I looked straight into his eyes and in them, I saw genuine concern I was so grateful for him. "Can you just stay for a minute?" I could look into his eyes when I asked this of him. I am a prideful person I don't like to ask for things until it is offered to me. "Sure." I knew that I would have to tell him what happened but I didn't want to speak ill about Sting to him. I didn't want this to affect their relationship. So I decided I wouldn't say anything about what happened until Sting did. "I would ask what happened but I don't want you to start crying again. It doesn't suit you" For some reason that brought a smile to my face. "I think my tear ducts are permanently shut from crying so much so you don't need to worry about that." We spent that night watching movies until midnight. I fell asleep and when I awoke, Rogue was gone.

When I left my apartment that morning I had to walk past the Sabertooth guild to get to Fairy Tail and I noticed that something was different. People were staring at me and whispering. Immediately I knew what was happening, word had spread about what Sting had done to me. I doubt that Sting is embarrassed. People were either laughing at me or gazing at me sympathetically. I don't need your sympathy in time I will heal and move on.

At the fairy tail guild it was no different people were giving me the same sympathetic looks. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed my friends running up to me. As one grabbed my hand and dragged me she said, "why didn't you answer your phone, we've been messaging you all morning.' They dragged me into one of the designated rooms in the guild. "Oh, I haven't checked my phone in a day." They all rolled their eyes simultaneously at me. "Uh, excuse me do not roll your eyes at me. I'm the one who had their heartbroken and then stepped on. Now I'm the one who has to experience public humiliation." They began to group hug me. "We're sorry." Lucy left the circle and then began pacing around in deep thought. "What's wrong with her" I whispered to mirajane "She's been plotting her revenge since she found out." I looked at Lucy and she seemed more hurt than I did. "Nevermind about her tell us what happened." I didn't feel like telling the story but when I said that to them they began harassing me. "Okay, fine listen. I came back from my mission and I went to surprise him Rogue gave me a key. When I walked inside I heard him talking to the girl he ... did it with talking about the night that they slept together." They were all so engaged from looking at them it felt like they had immersed themselves into their story.

"I would have run up in there and beat up that bitch and then Sting."

I then rolled my eyes. "I didn't beat her up. I didn't think it was necessary. He was the one I trusted not her."

"Then you beat him up. Right?" I knew they would be disappointed with my decisions with little pride I said, "No. I asked him why and I told him that we could never be together. I didn't touch him because I don't want to see him hurt physically because of me. Even though he broke my heart and betrayed me I think I will always love him despite that." They were in a state of shock. The silence was broken by Lucy grunting the words "I'm going to kill him."

While she was throwing tables across the room Levi asked me, "Are you going to get back with him." At this moment when the pain is so fresh, your answers will change with time but for now, my answer is, "No. I don't want to waste my time fixing something that's broken."
