Nico's POV

Why does my head hurt so much? I slowly opened up my eyes but quickly closed them. It was too damn bright ugh.

I groaned and sat up while holding my head. My body feels so sore.

"Good, you're up. " I heard some say.

Shoot. I opened my eyes again, still barely being able to see anything. Someone was standing at the edge of my bed.

My bed... this isn't my bed... where a-

Memories of last night suddenly came back to me. But that's all that came back, last night... It was like i didn't exist before then.

Gray.

"H-hai..." I said softly, looking at him. Why is is he shirtless? I caught myself checking him out and quickly looked away.

"I called some friends of mine, they can help you."

"No! I'm okay! You don't need to do anything else for me you've already done so much. I'll just be on my w-"

"Where are you even gonna go, Nico? Do you remember where you live? Do you have any jewels?" he asked. They weren't questions he needed answers to and we both knew it.

"I-iie.." I said, embarrassed. My eyes started to fill up w a few tears. I don't even know who I am. No, I may not remember anything but I know I'm not weak. I will NOT cry. I quickly blinked away the tears. I guess I have no choice "Okay I guess, arigato..." I gave him a small smile.

He's so kind.

He left the room and I went to the bathroom somehow, I got a stinging pain everytime I took another step. I looked at myself in the mirror, i don't even remember what I look like. My face was so pale and I had slight dark circles, nothing makeup can't fix. But alas, I don't have any. I don't think anyone would even pay attention to them though, my golden eyes would steal it all away. I washed me face to wake myself up and clean off all the dirt on my face. I was wearing Gray's hoodie and sweatpants. My legs had so many cuts and the sweatpants were irritating them, making them hurt more. In all honesty, I didn't even need the sweatpants, the hoodie was like dress anyway so I took them off.

Who am I...

Right then I heard a girl's voice outside so I exited the bathroom after drying my face.

"Who did you kidnap Gray??" I saw a beautiful blonde ask him jokingly.

"Oh shut up Lucy, I just helped her.." Gray blushed just a little. I smiled, standing at the doorway.

Lucy noticed me and smiled "Hey, you must be Nico! I'm Lucy Heartfilia, its nice to meet you!" she greeted as she walked over to where I was.

I noticed there was also a girl with blue hair standing next to Gray.

"Hii.." I said shyly "I'm Nico, it's nice to meet you too."

"I hope Gray didn't give you any trouble. He can be really annoying sometimes!" Lucy laughed.

"Oi Lucy, just do what you came here for" Gray grumbled.

"Hello Nico-chan, I'm Wendy. I use healing magic so I can help you out with all your wounds" she smiled at me.

They're all so nice. Why are they being so nice to me? They literally just met me.

"Arigato..."

It was around 9 am and I was all healed up. I took a shower and washed my hair. Lucy got me some of her clothes so I put them on. They were a bit too revealing for my taste but I wasn't in any position to complain.
