The prompt for day 1 is 'getting lost somewhere'. You're a member of Sabertooth and it's the time of the Grand Magic Games. You're magic is requip. This is a Rogue x reader.

I'm walking through the halls of the huge arena, how can anyone find their way in here? I sigh as I take another turn, and another, and another. They could've put up signs where we all have to go. I really should be on time, or our guild master will probably punish me for not being able to be on time.

After one more turn, I see something which looks like a balcony. I sigh in relief as I walk over, not yet hearing the cheers of the crowd that the Games have begun.

"Hey everyo-" I stop dead in my tracks, as I notice that I've arrived at the wrong balcony.

All eyes of Fairy Tail are pointed towards me, as I can feel how heath starts to rise towards my cheeks. "I-I'm sorry... I got lost and thought this was the balcony of Sabertooth..." I awkwardly admit, fidgeting with the sleeves of my shirt.

"It's not too hard," a small man says, as he jumps down from the wall which was put there to keep people from falling. I immediately recognise the small figure, it's Fairy Tail's master, Makarov. "If you walk back into the hall and turn right, it should be the third door on your left hand," he explains.

"Thanks a lot," I say as I quickly bow to show my appreciation. "And my apologies for interrupting."

The man nods, as I quickly start making my way to the Sabertooth balcony, the crowd already cheering in enthusiasm as I take off.

The master's glares have not gone unnoticed during the games, making it overly clear that he is not satisfied with me being late. On the way back, I decide to walk slowly, as I'm soon held company by a good friend of mine.

"Is something the matter, (Y/N)?" Rogue asks, holding Frosch who looks at me with big, worried eyes.

"I'm fine..." I answer. "I just got lost in the arena and was a few minutes late."

"Master probably wasn't very pleased, was he?" the black-haired mage asks, as his red eyes look into my own (E/C) ones.

"He wasn't..."

As we arrive into the guildhall, me and Yukino are called forward towards the master. Both of us walk forward, and from Yukino's face I can read that she is just as terrified of the guild master as every last one of us.

"(Y/N) and Yukino.  The two of you have let me down today." He sighs and looks straight at me. "Let me start with you, (Y/N). You were late, not there to support the guild. What do you think other guild will think if the guild members aren't even interested in our guild playing in the games?"

"I-I'm sorry master, I got lost in the arena. I promise it won't happen again," I stutter, staring down at the ground.

"I certainly do hope so. Though I'll have you wait now," he looks at his daughter, Minerva, who steps forward.

Minerva holds out her hand, trapping me into a bubble. I jump and try getting out, as she looks at me with a sadistic smile.

"Hold your breath."

I look at her and quickly take a gulp of air, holding my breath as my vision get cloudy with purple fog. It must be poisonous somehow, how long are they planning on letting me hold my breath. As my thoughts are racing, I'm running out of oxygen, and in a desperate attempt I start slamming the inside of the bubble. Tears well up as my lungs slowly feel like they're about to burst.

Suddenly the bubble bursts, making me fall down to the floor. I immediately breath in, my lungs all too happy with the oxygen they are receiving. I start coughing, as I slowly try to calm down my body and mind.

"I hope you won't make us wait another time," the master says as he turns to Yukino, though I don't hear their conversation as I get up and walk to a closeby hallway, sliding down against the wall.

Suddenly I feel an arm being wrapped around me and as I look to my left, the black-haired shadow mage has squatted down next to me. "Are you okay?" His red eyes scan me over, obviously searching for any kind of injury. I assume they weren't able to see me in the purple fog of the bubble.

"I'm fine... It's just... I didn't know what the fog was and didn't dare to breath, I was afraid of what would happen if I inhaled it," I answer, as I allow myself to lean again his chest.

Rogue gets up and holds out his hand to help me up. "Come on, lets go to my room. I'll get you some tea."

I nod and take his hand, pulling myself up, as I notice how a faint blush appears on his cheek. In silence we walk to his room, and he opens the door for me to walk in. I sit down on his bed, as he sits next to me. "Which tea do you like?" he asks, as he looks at me.

"I-I don't need tea..." I decline, as I look up at him. "Could you... Maybe... Just stay here?"

He looks at me, surprise clearly hinting in his eyes, as he nods. "Of course."

I move over, resting my head on his shoulder. He seems to hesitate for a second, but wraps his arms around me. I can feel how his lips touch my forehead, as my cheeks got hot once again and I close my eyes. If it's still needed, I'll tell him my feelings when I thank him, but for now I just want to enjoy the moment.
