Chapter 10: The Confession

Disclaimer: Fairy Tail ain't mine.

A/N: This chapter is shorter than usual. Yeah I know that my other chapters are already short haha. So yeah. The title for this chapter says it all. The much awaited confession will finally happen.

Indulge!

I am currently walking on my way home or should I say dragging my feet on my way home. Today has been a very exhausting day for me. I had my duty at morning while I took my classes at the afternoon and the restaurant just happened to be fully packed! Plus the fact that I have changed my route today, instead of taking my usual less than thirty minutes route I am now taking a much longer route that takes more than forty five minutes. Hah! But this is for the better. If I won't do it then there will be a possibility that he will see me and as of now that's the last thing that I ever wanted to happen! After all, I've been taking this route for almost a week and I'm quite enjoying the change in scenery.

When I finally reached home I was greeted by my younger sister's smiling face.

"Hey Lis!" I greeted her putting my I-am-smiling-because-I'm-happy act. Although of course I am really happy to see my little sister. I've been thinking too much this past few days to feel genuine happiness. I just felt betrayed.

Sigh. Well who wouldn't?

"Nee-san there's a handsome guy waiting for you!" My little sister, Lisanna said with a teasing smile.

My smile was instantly replaced by a scowl. Handsome guy? Who is that?

"He's in the kitchen. You should see him to find out who he is." My brother Elfman who suddenly popped-in said as if he had read my thoughts.

Is it him? I shake my head. No it's not him. It's impossible. I tried to convince myself. Slowly I make my way towards our kitchen where my visitor is.

And I was met a guy with a blond hair.

"What are you doing here?" I asked I was surprised to hear anger in my voice.

When he heard my voice he quickly stood up from his seat. "I'm here to see you." He simply answered.

I raise a brow. See me huh? See me to what? To play with him?

"Ever since what happened back in my condo, I never saw you. I was in the restaurant for a whole day, I asked your co-worker but she said you're not there" He explained.

Yeah because I requested to stay at the kitchen and I told my co-workers to tell you that I'm not there.

"I waited for you in your school. But I waited for nothing." He continued.

Because I used the back gate.

"I tried waiting for you on the street where you usually walk on your way home." He added.

Of course. I changed route. As simple as that.

He then walks towards me. He made an attempt to touch me but I flinched.

"What do you want?" I asked him straight to the point. I want him to leave as soon as possible.

"I want to talk to you." He quickly responded.

"Talk about what?" I bellowed.

Instead of answering he just remained silent.

I closed my eyes. "Stop it." I warned him.

"Stop what?" He said with a raised brow.

"Stop playing with me! Don't pull me into your man-whoring games!" I exclaimed, trying my best to fight back my tears. All of the bitter feelings that I have been repressing in the past few days suddenly exploded.

His eyes widen and before he can form any excuse I quickly added. "What? Are you shocked to know that I knew what you are doing? Of course I knew! I'm not as dumb as you think!"

"No... Mi-Mira. I'm not playing with you." He reasoned.

"Hah." I huffed. "Really? Then what is this? If you're not playing with me then how do you call this?"

"I like you. For real." He then hugged me. "Please don't cry." And that's when I realized that I was already crying. "Please Mira! Just give me a chance and I'll prove it to you." He begged.

"I like you. I like you so much. Please..." He repeatedly said while I'm trying to remove myself from his arms.

After many failure attempts. I gave up. He was now brushing my hair using his hand. Calming me. "Let's just talk about this on some other time. I'm tired." I whisper while bowing my head.

He then nods and kissed my forehead. "Alright then. I'll leave. But promise me one thing, promise me that you won't avoid me again." He asked and when I looked at his eyes I saw something that made me agree. And that is sincerity.

He then smiled at me and hugged me again before leaving.
