'What is this strange feeling?' Yukino thought, looking at Jellal, who hadn't noticed her staring at him for a while now, at least that's what she thought. 'Why is that my heart skips a beat, every time I look at him?' She shook her head in an attempt to stop thinking about him.

"I saw you looking at me….am I that handsome?"

Yukino was startled by Jellal's voice. "Huh? Me? N-no…I wasn't st-staring at you", Yukino stammered, red with embarrassment.

"Hehe, you're blushing,Yukino",Jellal joked, pulling her cheek .She pushed him away and walked back to her room, saying, "You're imagining things, Jellal. Keep dreaming."

She went to her room, and closed the door, her heart pounding wildly. 'Stupid Jellal! Why does he make me feel so weird? It's so annoying. I can't even look straight into his eyes when I talk to him. What's happening to me?'

"I've got to tell him, my feelings. I can't hold it in any longer." She walked up to her bedside table and tore a page from a book. Just as she began to write, she was fear-stricken. "what if he has never thought of me that way? Would I be making a fool of myself? But I can't stop myself. I feel like screaming it out."

'After dinner, meet me out in the garden. I need to tell you something.

-Yukino'

She went downstairs for dinner and saw that the whole guild was packed. After many days, everyone was present for dinner. Jellal was busy talking to Erza. She gave the note to Sting, "Give this to Jellal and don't you dare open it!"

"Sheesh, alright!" Sting said. "Hey Jellal, this is for you"

After dinner, Jellal came out only to find Yukino nervously plucking the petals of a flower.

"Yo Yukino, what is that you wanted to tell me?"

"Ummm..well…I dunno how to put this…."

"Wait, is it something about you and Sting? Hehehe"

"N-no…Why about him? There's nothing between me and him!"

"Woah, woah, oky. Just asked."

She took a step closer, towards him. Her heart was pounding in her chest. He held her stare and didn't move an inch. 'Does he feel the same way as I do?' She thought.

Jellal's heart was racing. He kept a hand on his chest, 'Why…why am I feeling so weird….?'

Just as Jellal was finishing his though, Yukino leaned forward and kissed him.

There they stood, lip locked and Jellal slowly wrapped his arms around her,in warm embrace.

Yukino never expected Jellal to reciprocate to her feelings, but here he was, kissing her, ever so tenderly. His lips interlocked with hers. 'I will be yours, forever, Jellal, I promise. ',she thought, smiling as she kissed him.
