A week passed before Dalla ever met Lucy face to face. Yes, she watched over her, but she didn't have the guts to actually talk to the mourning girl. It was true, she had talked to Cana and Gray after their parents had died, but she hadn't known their parents. And she knew where to guide them.
Lucy still had her father, but he was slowly growing to be so cold towards his daughter. A fact that made Dalla's heart twist in sadness and irritation. She knew Layla had expected him to be there for Lucy, only for him to start ignoring her.
As it was, Dalla finally decided she needed to get close to the girl. Layla had told her to look after Lucy and Dalla could only think to do that by befriending the girl. And to do this, she needed a cover. But, she didn't want to be a young adult when befriending the girl. So, she called in a favor.
-Line Break-
"I can't believe you," her friend face-palmed, his sigh loud. "Why are you dragging me into this?"
"Because I need a good cover and it needs to be one that can be proven true. Plus, Gossamer didn't want to help." She mumbled the last part to herself, still a little hurt by her friend's rejection.
Her plan was not stupid, nor would it backfire.
"What did you say?" He questioned, one green eyebrow raised in suspicion.
"Nothing!" she said a little too quickly. "Anyways, is that a yes?"
"Sure, I have nothing better to do," he sighed again, moving a long green lock of hair behind his pointed ear. "Besides, it seems like I have the easy part in this, so good luck."
Dalla puffed out her chest, "It'll be easy, just watch!"
He rolled his silver eyes, "Sure it will."
He took off into the air, a grumbling Dalla following him. She was glad that Briar had agreed to help. Anyone else would have just stared at her like she was crazy. But, he didn't know anything about Lucy She was a sweet girl and Dalla was sure it would be easy to become friends with her. Besides, all he had to do was take care of the gardens. So, he shouldn't have anything to complain about.
-Line Break-
Lucy didn't know what to think of the girl in front of her. She looked about Lucy's age, and wore a simple white dress with a large red flower on the skirt. The girl's eyes were amber and held excitement, her hand outstretched in greeting.
"Hi! I'm, Nissa! Who are you?" The girl used her other hand to push a lock of orange hair with purple on the ends out of her face.
"M-my names Lucy," Lucy mumbled, never quite looking Nissa in the eye as she shook her hand.
"It's nice to meet you, Lucy!" The girl beamed, causing something warm to well in Lucy's heart.
"It's nice to meet you too."
A/N: So here's where I hope my memory will not fail me. So Dalla goes by Nissa when she is disguised as a human, but when she is a fairy she is Dalla. Thus, whenever she is human I will refer to her as Nissa and will call her Dalla when she is a fairy. Anyways, thank you guys for following/favoriting/reviewing! It means a lot and helps to keep me going with this story. :)
