Frelu! I tried, I really, really did. I swear. But the idea of Freed and Lucy... My head spins. Sorry this took so long. Guys, check out this fan fiction called The Keys of Fire by LoneStorm. It is amazing, I am addicted, Nalu, and is 38 chapters long. I love it. I would do this in all caps but I'm to lazy to press the button... My laziness has reached new heights guys, I'm scared. Seriously though, check it out, it is amazing. It's basically a high school AU but better then the normal ones and their is ninjitsu and it is awesome. I read over 20 chapters in a day. Yeah, I'm addicted. You will be too. Read it.

Anyway, enjoy some Frelu!


Freed smiled at the girl in his arms, silently spinning her around the room. She was so beautiful with her flushed cheeks, sparkling eyes, and shining golden hair. She had always liked dancing.

Lucy let out a soft laugh as he dipped her and he felt his heart speed up at the noise. She somehow always made him do that, without even realizing it.

Mira giggled at the two from behind the bar. Slowly their relationship was escalating, to her delight. It made her giddy with anticipation for what was to come after their first kiss. She lived off of these kinds of things, much to Laxus's amusement, which she usually ignored.

It had all started a few months ago…

Mira smiled at Lucy who was talking excitedly about a new book she had just found. That's when Mira had noticed it. Freed. He kept glancing at Lucy out of the corner of his eye with a slight blush. Mirajane stared in slight confusion as she saw him grip the counter tightly in his hands, his lips pressed together tightly. It almost looked like he was debating something in his mind. Lucy didn't notice.

Then Freed pushed himself up from his stool and walked over to the bar.

"Lucy," he said quietly. The mentioned girl glanced up in surprise. Freed and she hadn't talked much so she was slightly startled to see him so close to her.

"Oh hi, Freed," she said cheerfully, despite this. He swallowed nervously and nodded to himself.

"I was wondering if you might join me for a mission," he said, looking her directly in the eyes. She blinked, shocked.

"With just you?" she asked hesitantly. He nodded. Mira glanced between them, her eyes narrowed in confusion. Why was he asking her on a mission? Lucy apparently had the same question.

"Why do you want me to go on a mission with you?" She was clearly confused by her furrowed brows.

Freed shifted on his feet nervously and glanced away. Mira's eyes widened to the size of saucers. How had she not noticed? Quickly, Mira said, "Lucy, I think you should go."

Lucy glanced at Mira with a frown.

"Natsu's on a solo mission for a few months, right? So you have no one to go with on missions. Why not with Freed?" she explained. Pretending not to notice the look of relief Freed shot her, she smiled at the Celestial wizard.

Hesitantly, she said, "Okay.."

After that they had grown a lot closer. Mira would often find them in each other's company. Their first mission had been a complete disaster, each not used to working with each other. But it hadn't been a bad disaster, more like a funny one, well, at least to the guys. The events included flying slugs, but Mira refused to think any more about it. She shuddered.

After that they had gone on more and more missions together. At first the entire guild had been surprised, I mean, wasn't Freed a part of the Thunder Legion? But Bickslow and Evergreen didn't seem to mind, each occupied with their own lives, and both seemed slightly amused by Freed's new attitude towards Lucy.

Eventually though, it had just become the social norm. When Natsu had returned at first he had been confused, but quickly accepted it with a small shrug. Lucy alternated from going on missions with the two boys. After all, Natsu was still her best friend, and she would miss Happy, despite her usual denial.

Mira sighed in contentment, watching Freed and Lucy giggle together as they danced.

They were so cute.


Comments, suggestions, reviews? Yes, no, maybe so?

Did I ever mention how much I love you guys? No, I mean it. I was reading through some of my reviews and I was like *tackle hug* on my computer, which makes no sense. I'm weird, as you should know by now. I hope you do, goodness, as if I haven't demonstrated it enough.

So, I'm going to rant. I don't talk about this stuff in real life, because I just don't. I'm not that kind of person. But I need to do SOMETHING. I mean, I could write something and then delete it and I might feel a little bit better, but it's nicer imagining that someone is reading this and actually cares. Which is saying a lot. Okay here goes. *Deep breath* I hate guys. No, that's not right. More like I am really confused by them. Mixed up. Scrambled eggs. Frustrated. Tired. Exhausted. Done. I just don't understand you guys. Not at all. One day he'll talk to me and seem to be trying to get my attention, the next day it will be like I don't exist. One week we talk a lot, the next week I barely see him. Now, of course this probably sounds silly. He's just a guy after all. And he is. But he is also my friend who I have a gigantic crush on and it annoys me to hell. I hate having crushes on people, because I INVEST in them. I won't like anyone else until we don't see each other again for years. And it pisses me off. Especially since most of the time my happiness depends on them. They don't sit with me during lunch? I want to bury myself under the covers and never get up again but at the same time I want to go seek him out and just be near him. It drives me nuts. I hate that. I want my happiness to depend on myself. SO usually I ignore it. But that doesn't stop it. NOOOOOOOO because I just can't seem to get a break from this crap. *sigh* But I can't hate him, because he is a really nice guy. And he doesn't realize he is doing it to me (I hope), and he is a good friend. *Larger sigh*

Well that was a crap storm on a crap storm. Sorry, I don't mean to complain. I know, I'm lucky to have him as my friend at all. I'm just pissed at myself for letting it get this far and letting myself feel this way. *Groan* I'm pretty sure a lot of people out there understand how this feels though... So, I UNDERSTAND YOUR PAIN. You know, this is actually one of the reasons I love writing. For a while, I get to escape the outside world, and live in another, one that I created (in this instance, partially, as the great Hiro Mashima is to be credited for this amazingness). Also there's the fact that when writing I know what everyone is feeling. I don't have to guess and poke blindly, I just KNOW. Life is a lot more scary than stories... And more intense. *repeating last sigh* Oh well, I'll deal. Sorry about acting weird, I just have been holding this in for longer then a year. I would write more but I don't want to drop to much on to you lovelies.
