Ryos was finishing up his training with Orga when Yukinos slammed open the training room door and behind her was Minerva Park, The masters daughter. Yukino didn't look quite happy as both males looked at her with a weird and concerned expressions like they might have done something wrong.
"Go get your friend" She muttered with venom in her voice as she said that, Minerva patted her lightly and looked at the two males in front of her.
"Sorry you two, but Rogue, Sting panicked again out of no where while coming to see you and ended up locking himself in the closet again"
Ryos blinked and nodded at the two girls and looked over at Orga who nodded at him to go.
"You can go Ryos, pretty sure that's more important than our training at the moment"
"Okay thanks Orga, Yukino, and Madame"
Ryos bowed to Minerva before rushing out of the training room, towards the main lobby and saw Rufus walking in circles up ahead. He came to a quick stop in front of the blonde male and waved in front of the blonds face.
"Hey Rufus! Do you now what closet Sting hid in?"
"Yes, wait no, ugh I just remembered now I forgot maybe it was that one, no wait that one, no no it was uhh"
"Hey! hey! Rufus! It's fine if you don't remember I'll find it"
"Oh okay, tell Sting I hope he feels better"
"Will do" Ryos waved before running off to check each closet in the guild, well more like the ones that weren't locked of course even though he was given a hint that Sting locked the closet door he was in.
"Sting where are you?" He muttered quietly but a bit loud in hope Sting would at least hear him with all the loud noises in the guild. Ryos continued to open closets, like how many did they have in this guild!? Ryos tried the closet that was close to the training room, the one he should have tried from the start but of course he didn't even try to check that one. He jiggled the handle and of course it was locked like Minerva had said, and he could hear quiet noises coming from the other side.
"Sting?" Ryos called out as he pressed his ear up against the door to listen, of course he didn't get a response he knew Sting wouldn't answer him but it was worth a try. He knocked in a specific pattern to signal to his friend that it was him, as soon as he got the same pattern back he heard a click which meant the door was unlocked now, Ryos was careful enough to slowly open the door to not alarm his friend too much already. He got down on the knees and looked at the blond whos eyes were bright red and small dark patches of his blue sweater were drenched in something wet. Ryos waited until Sting calmed down enough in order for them to talk to each other. Once Sting was calm, Ryos held out a handkerchief he would have on him just for Sting.
"Here, wipe your tears" He said in the most softest tone he could give, as Sting slowly took it, wiping the cloth across his eyes as he sniffled and shook, letting out a few sobs before it was over. Ryos smiled and placed a hand on Sting's shoulder.
"We're friends Sting, I'm here and you know I'm never going to leave you alone by yourself, if something caused you to hide away just come to me, I got your back no lie there"
Sting just nodded and looked at the ground, pulling his knees up to his chest and traced his finger on the floor, Ryos watched him spell out words. T-H-A-N-K Y-O-U. Ryos reached and slid his hand under Sting's and held his hand, grinning at Sting who only gave a somewhat smile, he could tell that it was forced so he moved his hand over Sting check and looked into his eyes. He blinked and stared at the blond, sticking out his tongue and booped Sting's nose, earning a big flinch from him.
"No need to force smiles on that awesome face of yours"
