Yuuki's POV
- The Next Morning -
I slowly opened my eyes only to see a bare chest I blinked a few times then looked up and saw Sting asleep right next to me 'W-What?!' I thought while blushing red I think my face was all red considering how close we were and that he wasn't wearing his shirt, I tried to get out of bed when I felt his arms around my waist I giggled softly then noticed the cloths I was wearing 'did he change me?! wait...he must of carried me here when I fell asleep...Sting why must you be sweet to me and make me fall for you more' I thought to myself but soon smiled faintly and gave his cheek a kiss.
When I finally could break out of his hold on me I looked around the room for my usual cloths which I had no idea where they were so I just walked out on the balcony and looked up at the sky, I started to think about what happened last night and frowned everything was fine like usual the boys and I were hanging out looking at things around checking a few shops out that pick our interest but when we ran into those guys who thought they could beat Sting and Rogue in a quick fight that's when everything went wrong, I don't blame the boys for showing how strong they are I mean that's them I just wished we left sooner so its not there fault.
Sighing I shook my head and tried to think about something else and well I got a bit distracted when I felt arms suddenly wrap around my waist and a chest press onto my back from behind, I turned my head a little and saw it was Sting he gave me a worried look before yawning I leaned back on him while placing my hands on his arms and Stings face nuzzled into my neck, as of this moment I wasn't shy like I was usually I was still upset to even be shy so I just let him hold me but a faint blush was seen on my cheeks which made Sting chuckle.
"Sting...can I ask you something" I asked then turned around in his arms surprisingly not breaking out of his hold my arms where now placed on his chest as I looked up at him.
"You already did but sure" He smirked but held me closer
"Haha okay well anyways I just want to know why you changed me into these cloths...you didn't see anything you weren't suppose to right?" I asked raising an eye brow before looking away from him.
"Okay that was two questions silly and well I thought you didn't want to sleep in your usual cloths so I lent you some of mine and no I didn't see anything I wasn't suppose to so don't worry" He chuckled the placed his chin on my head
"Good cause I would of have to kick your ass if you did" I told him smiling softly while nuzzling into him
This moment was really making my heart beat fast and loud enough that im sure Sting could hear but he seemed nervous too since I was listening to his heart beat and I was the same as mine 'does he like me too?' I thought then looked up at him once he looked back at me I couldn't control my blush his eyes didn't hold the usual that always was able to see this time it held emotions that only he would show towards me or his partner Lector and some reason I thought it was Love but I couldn't quite guess yet.
I was thinking if I should tell him about my feelings cause Sting is always there for me and he knows just how to comfort me most of the time I mean how I fell for this guy is the more missions we took together the more our bond came to be but my feelings suddenly went up when he was always there for me, Rogue knows about my feelings for him and tells me to tell him when I'm ready but not too late since Dragon Slayers will have only one mate for the whole time they live, it got me scared when he said that cause if Sting didn't have feelings for me then id lose him forever...and that's something I didn't want.
"Hey Sting um...can I-" I was suddenly interupped when he spoke
"No wait let me tell you something okay?" He told me taking in a deep breath "I have loved you since that mission on taking down the dark guild your a sweet caring girl who has been through so much yet pushes past it all and stands strong sure there are times where you break down but im always there to catch your tears so I just wanted to let you know I love you so much and I just cant stand seeing you in this kind of pain" He added leaving me shocked and out of words.
"Y-You love me?" I asked him once he nodded his head I smiled a true smile and giggled "I love you too" once those words came out to him he smiled and hugged me close I nuzzled more into him being all happy and out of worries of losing him I finally knew he loved me back I was so happy that I forgot what I was sad about last night.
After a while of hugging we pulled away from one another but kept holding one another as we started into each others eyes, I noticed him starting to lean in I blushed lightly and leaned in as well, since I was shorter them him I stood up on my tippy toes and once our lips touched the kiss seemed perfect and something I was hoping for, my arm suddenly moved to wrap around his shoulders as his arms tightened a little around my waist as to pull me close as possible to him i'm not sure how long the kiss was but it must of been a while since when we pulled away for air we were panting a little.
When I realized I just kissed Sting I blushed deep red and hid face on his neck becoming shy again, Sting chuckled and kissed my neck before letting go of me only to lead me back inside the room, sitting on the bed I was placed on his lap as he held me in his arms I couldn't help but giggled I always wanted this being in his arms happily, leaning back on him I looked up only to find him staring down at me with a smile.
I smiled back then snuggled close to his chest we stayed like this for a while until a knock came to the door, sighing I got off his lap and sat on the side of the bed I woke up on this morning Sting went to get the door once we saw it was Rogue I smiled at him then waved a little then got back to playing with Shiro who seemed to be sleeping in today.
"Are you up for going to eat out Yuuki?" Rogue asked me wondering how I was
"Eh..I'm not sure but you guys could go without me if you want" I replied while petting Shiros head
"But Fro thinks its not the same without Yuuki-san" Fro said flying towards me resting on my shoulder
"Alright ill go hehe silly guys you are" I smiled at them only to get smiles back.
I told the boys id be back soon and once I got out of Stings room I ran right to mine to have a shower and switch cloths, after I took my shower I looked at the white shirt Sting lent me to wear I smiled then picked it up and brought it to my nose, as always it has his sent I blushed at what I just did then giggled and disided to wear it under my black sweater I put on some sweat pants and put my hair up as soon as it was dry and brushed my bangs fell in my face but not to much after all this I put my shoes on then walked out of my room after closing the door I ran back to Sting's only to find him finishing up getting ready but his back was turned so I smirked and slowly walked up behind him jumping on his back giggling hearing him laugh too.
"You ready?" I asked then kissed his cheek
"Yeah you?" He smiled holding me up on his back then piggy back ridded me out
"Hehe yup" I smiled big nuzzling my face on his shoulder
"Oh yeah one thing, do you wanna be my girlfriend?" He suddenly asked which made me blush
"Yes id love to be your girlfriend" I smiled but once he put me down on my feet he looked at me with his smile then hugged me.
Hugging him back he moved towards my neck and bit on it I then realized he was marking me as his mate so I did the same to him his mark was a Light Dragon Slayer's while mine was a Ice Dragon Slayer's we both pulled away smiling at each other only to give a quick kiss and walk outside with our exceeds following us to meet Rouge and Fro outside while we were walking we held hands.
"About time you two got together" Rogue said once he saw out hands linked together I just let out a giggle while Sting just looked away blushing lightly but soon smiled and shook his head, we then set off to go eat breakfast at a near restaurant.
Sting's POV
I was really happy Yuuki was back to herself it shocked me it only took one morning to make her feel better again but I bet it was because I finally told her my feelings, im glad she feels the same for me cause I don't know what I could of done without her, I couldn't stop looking at her as we sat at a table talking while waiting for our food I just couldn't believe it she was finally mine...my Yuuki, my mate I will protect her and treat her well cause I cant lose her to anyone or anything.
Smiling to myself I made another promise that I will forever keep cause I now finally got the girl I waited for I knew I shouldn't do anything that would make our relationship go wrong considering I know shes still a bit upset about last night but that still wont stop me from being there for her as her new boyfriend.
Once our food was on the table I held her hand under the table and every once in a while gently kicking her foot this went on for a while until one of us kicked Rogue by mistake which he glared at us and told us to stop playing footies we both blushed a muttered a 'sorry' before laughing all together, yeah I could get used to this.
As soon as we finished we payed for it then walked out I grabbed Yuuki's hand and held it she looked at me with a smile and I smiled back then we all started a conversation about something then soon it turned into jokes everything was back to normal now just the way we all liked it and since the games were tomorrow we made up our minds to make this day as a 'day off' and just hang out but Rogue and I made sure to avoided the fairies
- Flash Back-
"We got to keep her away from those fairies until tomorrow" I told Rogue after Yuuki left
"Agreed I don't think anyone of us wants to see her break down like that again" Rogue said nodding his head
"But how do we do that?" I asked after sighing
"Well if one of us picks up there sent we should get far away from them enough not to get close to her" He replied
"Yeah but lets hope Yuuki doesn't sniff them out before us" I told him and once he left I went to get changed
- Flash Back End-
I silently sniffed the air to see if there were any fairies out here cause I wasn't going to let my girl suffer from them at the games I still was worried how she would face them once we would be out on the field as the guilds would be announced but she seems fine as of right now since none of them were around I sighed in relief.
I kissed her head after giving her hand a light squeeze I guess I didn't notice what happened next since I was so focused on looking at Yuuki that I didn't see her tug my arm down and kiss me, she giggled at my shocked face then held my arm leaning on me as we walked, I then chuckled shaking my head 'oh Yuuki what will I ever do without you? your sure full of surprises' I thought then found out we walked to a park with a basket ball court.
Yuuki squealed once she saw the basket ball court and ran towards it there were a few basket balls there to use it seemed people left them there for when either kids or others come to play it.
"Come on Sting-kun! lets play one-on-one!" She smiled then stood in the middle of the court
"Alright but i'm not that good" I said back walking towards her as Rogue and the exceeds when under a tree to rest
"Don't worry if you win theres a prize but if I win I get one" she giggled
"Oh? now whats this prize your speaking of?" I smirked at her
"If you win you can get a lot of kisses from me as much as you want buuut if I win I want at least some kisses and more piggy back rides" she giggled then rolled on the bottoms of her feet.
"Now that's a bet ill always take" I winked at her
Letting her try to get a shot first I made up my mind to tease her and block her way she frowned then tried again to get past me but I kept blocking her, then she suddenly stopped and gave me the cutest face she could ever show I stopped dead in my tracks and blushed at it tho once I realized it was a trick it was too late she got passed me and got a shot.
"Hey! you tricked me!" I said then looked at her trying to act mad
"Awww come on Sting-kun" She said cutely
"If you continue to act cute ill attack you with kisses and you can forget about the bet" I smirked which got her to blush
After a while it ended up as a tie but we still went with the bet and let one another get the prize but our kisses were for when we were alone so here I was carrying her on my back as we walked back to the hotel I guess Yuuki really tried a lot when we were playing one-on-one basket ball since I heard cute and soft snores from her I smiled and moved her on my back a little more making sure she didn't fall off.
When we got back to the room Shiro brought Yuuki's bag into mine it seemed like since Lector and Fro must of informed him about me being in a relationship with his partner but im sure Yuuki wouldn't of minded since she didn't freak out this morning about sleeping with me.
As I was just about to place her on the bed she woke up yawning softly she snuggled more into me before sighing softly showing a smile, I chuckle softy before pulling away from her a bit to close the door I gently pushed her to lay on the bed and crawled on top of her smirking at her blushing face I started to kiss her.
"Don't forget our bet there missy'' I whispered in her ear then went right back to kissing her, I knew she wanted to take things slow so I just kissed her and soon pulled away resting my head on her chest smiling softly as she stroked my head.
"I love you Yuuki" I told her with my eyes closed
"I love you too Sting" she replied back, I smiled at that and wrapped my arms around her waist.
"Oh I hope you don't mind that your stuff was moved here" I told her while playing with her hair that was in my line of sight
"Nah I don't mind..makes me no longer lonely in the mean time anyways" She told me while rubbing my head softly
"Okay just thought id tell you" I smiled then looked up at her I slowly got on my hands and knees with her still under me
We must of stayed like this for a while until I layed back down on her only to flip us around now having her resting on my chest earning a yelp from her which got me to laugh lightly.
"Sorry there babe I think this is much better, having you in my arms is what I like best" I smiled at her while holding her close nuzzling my nose into her nice black hair, this moment was really one of the greatest and peaceful one I couldn't want anything more then this smiling softly at her almost asleep form I too started to grow tired.
Looking at the time I made up my mind to take a nap with Yuuki I mean what else could go wrong? nothing to tell you the truth so as I closed my eyes I held onto Yuuki more and slowly fell asleep with her.
