That girl. That Mermaid Heel girl. Rogue just couldn't stop thinking about her. How long has this silly little crush been going on? Rogue didn't know anymore. The former Sabertooth master would've been enraged if he talked about the beautiful girl from Mermaid Heel. But he's no longer the master, Sting is. That's why when he found out about Fairy Tail's masquerade ball, he marched straight to the Mermaid Heel guild. Of course his confidence flickered out like a candle once he actually reached the guild building. He nervously stood outside trying to figure out if he should go in or not. Frosch stood next to him staring and smiling at the building.

"May I help you?" Rogue freezes up at the familiar voice. Both he and Frosch turn around to see the one and only Kagura there.

"W-W-Well I was j-j-j-just in the a-area you see. A-And I-I-I thought t-t-t-to u-um." Rogue stutters he was having an extremely hard time forming words. This girl he's seen only in the battlefield for years. The one with a quiet and serious atmosphere that somehow made her seem even more beautiful. The one he had a quiet crush on was standing right in front of him.

"He wants to go on a date with you!" Frosch smiles.

"Frosch!" Rogue's face was redder than Igneel's scales.

"A date?" Kagure asks.

"I-It's no big deal! Y-You don't have to if you don't-"

"I'd love to."

"Y-You would?!"

"It sounds fun. The weather is supposed to be beautiful this Saturday. Why don't we have a picnic at the park?"

"That would be great!"

"For thinks so too!" Fro cheers.

"You're so cute." Kagura smiles. "Would Fro like to come as well?"

"Fro wants to!"

"Then it's a date."

"Great. See you on Saturday then." Rogue says. Kagura nods and walks past him and into her guild.


To say that Rogue was excited was an understatement. Everyday leading up to his date he tried to cook. And everyday the result was the same. Burnt to a crisp. Eventually Minerva had to come in and teach him. The results were better, but they weren't the best. The day of his date, he took a picnic basket and filled it with food he made and rushed him and Frosch off to Mermaid Heel's town. When he found the park he looked around. His breath hitched when he saw Kagura. She had a floppy sun hat with a black ribbon tied around it on her head. She adorned a beautiful black sundress with printed white daisies scattered all over in a random pattern and a pair of black knee-high boots. She looked absolutely stunning. When he approached her, she smiles a little bit.

"Kagura... You look..."

"It's not my style, huh?"

"Stunning."

"Fro thinks so too!" Frosch cheers. Kagura blushes at their words. She quickly brings her attention to the basket at her feet.

"It looks like both of us brought food."

"It seems so." He sets his basket down so he could take a blanket out of it. He spreads it out then motions for Kagura to put her's in the center next to his. Kagura opened her basket and started taking out containers of food. Most of them looked very healthy. A salad, sandwiches, watermelon, potato salad, fruit salad, bottles of drinks, things like that.

"Kagura, did you make all this?" Rogue asks.

"Beth made most of it. She's in charge of nutrition in the guild and she wanted to help me. Actually most of the girls did." Kagura adverts her eyes.

"That's sort of what happened in my guild too. Except it was because they were tired of me messing up the kitchen." Kagura started giggling. She calms down after a second and looks away embarrassed.

"S-Sorry. That was pretty uncharacteristic of me."

"N-No no! It's fine! I like your laugh."

"Fro too!" Frosch smiles.

"Th-Thank you." Kagura blushes.

"I don't think I've ever heard you laugh."

"Really? It's been a while, it feels nice." Kagura averts her eyes. "What did you bring?"

"Oh! Right!" Rogue opens his basket. "Minerva made some of it." He takes out containers of slightly burnt food and containers of perfectly made deserts. "If you can't tell, Minerva made the desserts."

"Miss is a great cook!" Fro cheers.

"Well it's as they say, a great dessert makes them forget the meal."

"Let's just dig in." Rogue blushes.

After that it was a quiet picnic. Both of them sat, queitly enjoying each other's company. After finishing their lunch, the three of them took a stroll through the park. Frosch also somehow got stuck in a tree and caused Rogue to panic. Kagura had to use her magic to get him down. They talked about whatever crossed their mind, played with Frosch, and even fooled around a little at the playground. It was the perfect and most peaceful date Rogue had ever been on. It was even better with his long-time crush with him. Sadly their ended as the sun went down. Rogue walked Kagura back to her guild, Frosch asleep in his arms.

"Today was nice." Kagura says when they reach her guild.

"Both of us had fun." Rogue looks fondly at Frosch.

"Well see you around." Kagura reaches for the handle.

"Wait! We should meet up again! We're from different guilds so we won't be able to see each other often!"

"Where do you suggest we meet up?"

"Fairy Tail!"

"Fairy Tail?"

"They're having a ball there. You should come as my date."

"Oh, I remember that. That'd be a great place to meet again." She quickly kisses his cheek before turning around. "See you in a few weeks." Then she turns the handle and disappears inside.

It was official, Kagura was going to the ball with Rogue. Why? Because he was that boy. That Sabertooth boy. The one she's had a silly little crush on forever.
