Laxus was the first one to notice that his green haired mascot and the waitress had been closer since he had left and come back. Cana later explained how it was Mira who cleared all the doubts Freed had been troubled with in the Fighting Festival.
Every now and again since they came back from Tenrou Island Freed would help Mira at the bar in his own silent way. Laxus smirked as he watched Freed taking a tray for Mira and smiling. It was good to see him smile more, he rarely ever did, Laxus was happy that the raijinshuu were able to have fun now with the rest of the guild. He was especially happy for Freed and a little bit for himself, it was good not having Freed clinging so much to him anymore.
"I'm going on a mission Raijinshuu," he called out moving to find suitable job in the much emancipated list they could choose from.
Evergreen frowned a little bit giving an awkward goodbye to Elfman while Bixlow chuckled moving away from an annoyed Lucy, whom he probably was the sole culprit of her landing on the fire dragon slayer when she mysteriously tripped.
Freed didn't seem to notice as he sat at the bar talking to Mira and waved them off much to the chagrin of the other members.
"Wasn't he supposed to be your right hand man?" Evergreen fumed.
"It's okay Ever, Elfman will be waiting for you, right babies?" Bixlow laughed.
"Right, Right!" the dolls sang while Ever pouted turning pink.
Meanwhile at the bar Freed sipped at his drink gallantly but inside he was dying with anxiousness.
'How do I ask her out!' his inner self panicked.
"Are you okay Freed?" Mira asked thoughtfully, since the fighting festival they had gotten so close she could almost read his every thought.
"Me? Fine! Oh nothing at all is wrong," He replied flustered.
Mira smiled sighing and took his hand in his, "I told you we'll start over together, right?"
"Yes," he replied regaining composure and edging closer to the model.
"So please tell me what's wrong," Mira said tilting her head.
"Nothing I just have a question for you," Freed said gulping down his fear of rejection.
"Yes?" Mira pushed him her eyes sparkling with excitement. She had been dropping so many hints to the man that she was almost losing patience.
"Will you meet me at the lake tonight, for a date?" Freed blurted.
"Finally!" Mira cried giving him a quick kiss on the cheek, "Thought you would never ask!"
Freed got up quickly smiling like a mad man with a small blush on his cheeks and ran to the lake to prepare for a romantic dinner he intended to make himself, "Meet me at 8 in front of the guild!"
"I'm so there!" Mira shouted after him, "What Luce?"
"He llllikes you!" she teased wanting to take revenge for the countless times Mira playfully picked on her.
"I wasn't the one sitting on Natsu's lap and claiming we're 'Just friends', you know," Mira giggled leaving a gaping
Lucy flushed instantly and gave up trying to compete with the model; no one could take on Mira and she hoped Freed was ready for the woman.
