The Cold Truth (Sting x OC)

Chapter 15

A/N:before we get started with this chapter, I wanted to clear something's up because I feel like it might be confusing. Sting, Rogue, and Aurora love together in the same house. It's just sometimes Rogue will be with Minerva. Also, I can't remember if I said this already but there was no seven year missing thing for Fairy Tail, I also changed the ages of some people. Also I would like to point out that Sting is naturally flirty so that's why Crystal doesn't think much of it. Alright, I think that's all. Anymore questions? Just comment and I'll answer them!

General POV
~The day before the games (August 1st)~

Sting knocks on the door to Crystal's room, she stands and opens it. Sting smiles "good morning Cris!"

Crystal smiles, "good morning." She says as she moves out of the way for him to walk in.

He walks in and sits on her bed, Crystal closes the door and sits next to Sting. "What brings you here?" She asks.

Sting wraps his arms around her and pulls her into a hug. She smiles and hugs back. "I was hoping to hang out with you today. Your match will be tomorrow, and I just wanted to give you a day to relax."

Crystal smiles, "yeah. But first." She breaks the hug and pats her lap. "We need to talk." She smiles.

Sting sighs and lays his head on her lap. "Sing for me first."

She giggles and begins to gently stroke his hair. "What song?" She asks.

"Any song, just sing." He says as he closes her eyes

She sighs and thinks for a second. Then smiles, she sings in a soft and quiet tone, singing slowly, almost like a lullaby. ♪♪"But you'll never be alone, I'll be with you from dusk till dawn, I'll be with you from dusk till dawn. I'll idk you when things go wrong, I'll be with you from dusk till dawn, I'll be with you from dusk till dawn, baby I'm right here."♪♪

Sting relaxes as she sings, it is the song hey sing to each other to get them calm. "Thank you." He says.

"So, you gonna tell me what's wrong now?" She asks softly.

Sting sighs, "there's rumors of the dark guild joining the games as a normal guild. And I've been getting anonymous threats, saying 'we're coming for the crystal rose.' I'm... thinking of taking you out of the games." He says.

Crystal frowns, "you've been getting the notes too?"

Sting sits up in a rush and looks at her with worry in his eyes, "what do you mean?!" He asks.

Crystal grabs her phone and opens it to her messages and goes to the unknown number, she then hands the phone to him.

Unknown: We know about you Rose.

Unknown: We are coming for you

Unknown: I wonder what'll happen if fire goes against ice.

Unknown: The color is metal is often mistaken for Gray, but it is not Gray that he wants.

Unknown: Lightboy won't be able to save you

Unknown: All the training in the world won't save you.

Unknown: Every Rose has to rot away. Even you.

Unknown: The snowflake is the most delicate thing, one rich and it melts.

Unknown: see you in a week. Snowflake.

Sting growls, "why did you never tell me about this?"

Crystal shrugs, "I didn't think much of it. Until the one from last week. This person called me Snowflake. Only my father ever did that... But he's in jail..." Crystal sighs.
