I know I should finish my first story before this one but this time I'm not alone. I have my trusty self consiance to helpme out. Please give a warn welcom for Neko-neko! /^o^\
neko: Thanks for the usless introduction you useless idiot.
/-m-\: Shut up.
Neko: Don't blame me you made me up. I'm nothing more than your self consiance.
Yori neko: Please just give the disclamer.
Neko: Yori dosn't own fairy fairy tail no matter how much she wishes.
The guild was loud and cheerful even more since Lissana came back. Everyone partied and drank all day even those who didn't know her. Hey a party's a party even when it was an important day in someone's life.
"Lucy are you okay? you seem down." Mira, one of the only people who talks to Lucy lately.
"I'm fine Mira. You worry to much." Lucy plastered a smile on her face.
"Okay then" Mira said unconvinced but pushed the feeling away when Lissana came to talk to her sister.
'Please let them remember.' Lucy repeated in her head
"Hey guys!" she put on a smile when she saw her team. "I was thinking we should go on a mi-" she was interupted.
"hello I don't think we've been properly introduced. My name is Lissana." the formely missing mage said with a smile.
"My names Lucy its nice to meet you!" Lucy extended her hand whish Lissana ignored.
"hey Natsu lets go on a mission!" she held out a request.
"that's a good idea!" the idiot said
"Um guys I was hoping that you knew what today was." Lucy muttered
"Oh Lucy before we forget do you mind if Lissana can come in the team." Natsu said without pausing to see her forming tears. "as you know Lissana has been gone for a while and we know Lissana the most, so she can take your place!"
"Yeah that's a great idea then you don't have to complain how its our fault you lost your rent money." The shirtless Gray agreed
"I to think that's a great idea then you can go on solo missions or train to get stronger" Ezra, Lucy's last hope said.
"Really!" Lissana exclaimed bursting with joy.
"So what do you say?" Natsu grinned
"Sure. Lissana is your nakama after all and you guys do need to catch up. I better get going." Lucy put on a smile and quickly walked out the guild hoping that someone will chase after her to ask what was wrong, but no one did.
Lucy walked and walked in the rain not knowing where she was going trying to hold in her tears. The rain ran down her face then her tears burst down her face.
'Why! Why does this have to happen again!" she sobbed into her hands and sat down in the cold wet cement remembering all of her lonely birthdays.
"Hey if you cry in the middle of the rain your going to get yourself sick." the person put a big cloak on her covering her from the rain.
She turned to thank the person and shock came to her. It was one of the least people she expected to help.
"Laxus?"
"Who did you expect santa clause?" he snarled at her disbelief. "what not even a thank you?"
"N-no I didn't mean that." Lucy said trying to catch her tongue. "Thank you but why?"
"Why not it looked like you needed it to" he smirked
"Did it really or do you just want something?"
"You wound me with your words." he pouted then smirked saying "Though you are right I do need you for something."
"what is it you want" Lucy said sarcastically, enjoying the first real conversation with somebody instead of being alone in the shadows.
"Like what those weak idiots said I decided to take you under my coat and train you." he answered in a straight face.
"Don't you mean wings, and really?" she asked in disbelief
"Truly- wait what are you doing!" he was startled with a faint blush when Lucy put her palm to his forehead.
"I think your coming down with a fever if you want a 'weakling' like me to train under you."
"Well your different from those other weaklings. You have potential power that needs the right kind of training." he slapped her hand away from his forehead turning his face so she didn't notice his blush.
"Is there some kind of catch to this?"
"Just a few." he chuckled nervously
"What are they?" she pretended not to be interested in what he had to say.
"First off it will be a three year training and we temporarily have to leave the guild but we can join again once your training is over." he said bracing for her to yell out.
"Three years? But what about my apartment rent?" she started thinking of the negatives and to her surprise there wasn't many.
"I can take care of that and all you have to do is train and listen to me."
"I don't know wouldn't my tea-" she couldn't finish that word because she knew it was not true. The only people who talked to her were basically Wendy and Levy.
"I know what happened and I'll give you time to say goodbye to the two shorties. But we will leave at noon tomorrow. So pack up now and we can talk to the old man tomorrow." he explained
"Wait I never gave you my answer!" she complained.
"So your just gonna stay a loner in the guild?" he smirked
"I didn't say that, I wasn't going to join you." her face reddened with embarrassment.
"I thought so" he chuckled. "oh and Lucy happy birthday" he pulled out a small box from his coat.
Lucy was filled with joy and started crying. She ignored the gift and clutched on to Laxus crying tears of happiness into his shirt.
At first he was surprised and yell at her to get off but he saw her scared face and embraced the blond whispering 'your such a baby"
