Sting's Present

I'm just going to tell you now: I don't know if Frosch is a girl or boy, so I'll make him a boy.  Hope you like this chapter!!

~Rogue's P.O.V.~

        I looked around for Sting and Lector.  We had stayed in a hotel after leaving the market.  "Sting!  Where are you??" I yelled across Sting's room.  We had separate bedrooms, but it seemed like Sting nor Lector was there.  "Hey Frosch, did you find them?" I asked my exceed partner when he came towards me.  He sadly shook his head.  "I wonder where they could be.." I mumbled out loud.

        "Fro wonders too..." Frosch nodded.  I sighed and ran a hair through my head. Where did that idiot of a partner run off to? I was about to go back to our room when something dawned on me.

        "Frosch, where are the presents???" I asked slowly, starting to panic.  Frosch blinked and looked around.

        "Fro doesn't know."  Not good.  Really not good.  We had brought the presents from over the years, and they were all missing!  

         I was about to curse with every colorful language I knew when the hallway door suddenly slammed open. "Hey!!  We're back!" Sting slurred his words as he made his grand entrance.  It was obvious that he had been drinking, and his eyes were red and puffy.  Had he been crying?

        "S-sorry for being late.." Lector struggled to say as he was trying to carry Sting with his small angelic wings.

        "Where have you guys been?" I asked, my eyebrows twitching with annoyance.   "You're 2 hours late!"

        "Oh, we went to Fairy Hills to talk to Lexi," Sting answered drunkenly.  "Then we dropped off the presents and got just one drink."  I raised my eyebrows at Lector who mouthed "Waaaay more than one."

        "You dropped off the presents?" I asked in the nicest tone possible.  We agreed that we would do that together, but from the looks of it, the information he got from Lexi was not good, so I had to have some sympathy.  Sting nodded.

        "Yup!" he replied cheerfully.  I furrowed my brows in pity.  I couldn't help but feel bad for him.

        "Well, we need to get back to Sabertooth," I said as I took one of my friend's arms around my shoulder.  And hopefully he'll sober up before we arrive, I mentally wished.

~Jessie's P.O.V.~

        A huge yawn escaped from my lips as I sat up from my bed and stretched my arms.  I didn't get much sleep yesterday, huh.  When I saw the sun's ray through my window, I decided to just go to Fairy Tail. Maybe that'll get my head out of my thoughts.. I slipped on whatever clothes looked fine and ate..I don't even remember what I had for breakfast, but all I know is that I had something. I didn't even call for Lexi to wake up, but she was already up and ready to go when I got down to the ground floor. 

        "You're up early," I commented with a tired but amused expression.

        "Yeah, I uh, couldn't sleep," she answered, rubbing her furry arm. I didn't ask her for details as that's what happened to me as well, so we both silently agreed not to ask each other. Instead of asking me, Lexi looked down and raised one eyebrow over the other. She then glanced over me, hesitating for a second before asking, "You, uh, going to put that on?" I blinked, looking down at my hands and realizing that my gold angel-winged heart-shaped locket was dangling from my hands.

        "Oh," I said bluntly. "Uh, yeah, guess so." I pinch the other side of the necklace with my other hand's fingers and bring it to the back of my neck. I wonder why I brought it, I thought to myself as I fastened it. Lexi and I then walked to Fairy Tail in silence.
