One more day… If I keep living for one more day, maybe things will get better. I say to myself as I walk back from my dull and dismal place of work, otherwise known as the local library.

I've been saying the same thing to myself over and over again for the past ten years, ever since my best friend disappeared thirteen years ago, vanishing into mist and smoke, taking my will and reason to live along with her.

Some might say I'm being over dramatic, that I'm 'turning molehills into mountains'. I doubt that those people have lost someone they had cared so deeply about that they would have given their life if said person were in danger.

Some might also tell me to get over it. I can't. I also can't explain why I can't get past that hole, the void that has sucked up any joy that once resided within me.

Things haven't been getting better. They haven't been getting worse. They've stayed the same since that day when I got the phone call from her parents, saying that she hadn't come home after leaving my house, which was only two blocks away from her own.

I've been frozen in time since that phone call, the only thing keeping me alive is the thought that maybe if I keep living for one more day, she'll show up smiling like she always did, with a book in one hand and a pencil tucked behind her ear.

The way only my almost always lucky Lucy Heartfilia could do.


Heeey guys, another story from MWA. I don't know if I'm going to continue this story, considering I have a pretty good vibe going with Midnight till Dawn, but if you do like it, it is possible for me to write two stories at a time. I'm not that bad at long term multitasking. Probably. But anyways, IF I do continue this story, it will be switching off between the perspectives of Levy, and Lucy, with the occasional Natsu, Gajeel, Juvia or Gray. Maybe even a little Erza. Also, all though this story is not listed under the hurt/comfort or mystery category, it will have plenty of that kind of stuff in it. (Also, as usual, my first chapter is INCREDIBLY short- you guys should know this if you've read Midnight till Dawn)

Anywhooo, thanks for reading (maybe the start of) my weird writing! Let me know what you think, this could be the start of one of my new favorite books to write!
