~/Caring\~


Angel: Konichiwa minna! This is my first Fairy Tail fanfiction so please enjoy! Erza may be a little OOC, so I wanna say sorry beforehand.

Lucy: Aren't you forgetting something?

Natsu: Yeah, I think it was a... diss-clay-murh.

Angel: Oh, right. I don't own Fairy Tail. Except for my OCs and my plot. But maybe I can convince Hiro...

Lucy: NO! HIRO! DON'T DO IT!

Angel: Anyway, enjoy!


No one ever really thought of Erza as a girl. They thought of her as someone they had to listen to if they valued their lives. They didn't think she was the caring type, just the responsible type. They never thought that one little girl could impact Erza so greatly.

That one day. When she turned up.

~/Erza's POV\~

I will never understand Fairy Tail. We're all so carefree. All we ever do is drink and blow things up. We never do anything that would actually earn us any respect. Ever. And whenever I try to do something, somehow I get involved in the fight over who-knows-what. I wish that people would be more considerate. And more careful around MY cake.

"Erza? Are you alright?" Lucy asks while she walks up to me.

"I'm fine Lucy, just thinking." I reply.

"What about?"

"How immature our guild is."

"What made you think about that now?"

"I was just thinking and somehow it came up."

"Ah. Well, it's late. I think I'm going to head home. You know, kick Natsu out, take a shower, kick Natsu out again, go to bed, kick Natsu out of my bed..."

"Alright, see you tomorrow."

"Hopefully."


As I head home my mind wanders again. I wonder how Millianna is doing in Mermaid Heel? Or where Wally and Shô might be. But most importantly, how is Jellal doing? I wonder... I feel like something important is going to happen to me. Something that will change ME. Oh well, I'll think more about this in the morning.


Good morning, me. I guess I better head to Fairy Tail before Natsu decides to blow something up. But then I hear a sound. It's coming from my door. Right outside of it. What could that be?

"Waaah!"

Oh my god... is it crying? Or more importantly, what IS it?

"WAAAH!"

I guess I better go figure out what it is... I opened the door and saw a... little girl... WHY IS THERE A LITTLE GIRL OUTSIDE OF MY DOOR?!

"..."

Oh no. What happened? Why is she silent now? What did I do?

"Nee-chan...?"

"Eh?" I nearly shout at it.

"NEE-CHAN!"

"I-I'm not your nee-chan!"

"W-what...?"

"Oh no."

"WAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

"WHO ARE YOU?"

"I no have name!"

"How old are you...?"

"I is six!"

"Where's your family?"

"I no have family..."

Oh no. Abandonment. A motherless child. WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?! AM I SUPPOSED TO TAKE CARE OF HER?! oh my god. She looks like Millianna. That just makes matters worse!

"Nee-chan will take care of me, wight?"

"Uh... I..."

"Pwease, nee-chan?"

"Oh, of course!"

WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?! I'M NOT GOOD WITH KIDS! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO TAKE CARE OF A SIX YEAR OLD THAT LOOKS LIKE ONE OF MY CHILDHOOD FRIENDS?!

"Yay! Nee-chan is gonna take care of me!"

Oh, but she's just SO adorable. I should try. First, she needs a name. Fairy Tail can wait this morning. An abandoned child is more important. I should probably feed her something. She must be hungry. I know what I can name her! I can name her Millie, it's a very fitting name for her. I'll just have to try and raise her myself. And Fairy Tail CANNOT know. If they did, Millie would get frozen, then set on fire, then drenched in water, then air-dried. Poor kid. That's why rule one is no leaving Fairy Hills. Or my rooms, for that matter.

"Nee-chan? What is you doing?"

"Just thinking. I have name for you. It's Millie. Do you like it?"

"Millie likes Millie, nee-chan!"

"Great. Now if you're going to live with me, I have a few rules. Ok?"

"Ok, nee-chan."

"Rule one: No leaving my dorm. Rule two: You need to learn grammar. Rule three: No being too loud. Rule four: You must be in bed by nine. Rule five: When I tell you something, you listen."

"What is gwammar?"

"I'll have someone teach you that, don't worry."

"Why can't Millie leave the dorm?"

"Because I don't want anyone to know that you're here."

"Why?"

"You ask to. Many questions. Only a few people get to know you're here because my friends are... Very... Destructive. I don't want them to break you."

"Bweak me?"

"Yes. So stay here."

"Millie will stay here, nee-chan!"

She's just so adorable. Only Lucy and Levy get to know about her. Because they can teach her and they're responsible.


"Eh? A kid?" Lucy and Levy say in surprise.

"Yes, a kid. And not so loud!" I whisper-shout at them.

"Where did you get a kid?" Levy asks.

"I found her outside of my door this morning. She's only six. She was abandoned. I couldn't just leave her!"

"I understand. Every child needs a parent." Lucy says.

"I was kidnapped at a young age. I can't take it when people abandon little kids! It's not right!"

"Ok, so should I meet you at Fairy Hills later?"

"Sure Lucy. That would be great. Would you mind bringing some books she can study from? I want to make sure that she's somewhat educated."

"Of course, Erza."

I'm so glad that Lucy understands. She grew up with her mother dying and her father ignoring her. So she knows what abandonment is like. And so do I. I guess that's why I agreed take care of little Millie. I'm her nee-chan now. I have to raise her. This might be my hardest job yet.
