I do not own Fairy Tail


The dinner was very awkward for Lucy and the exceeds. There was a glaring contest between Natsu, Sting, and surprisingly Rogue. They sat on the white table, eating in silence with the only sounds of the clinking of the plate when they cut through the beef and stabbed the potatoes with the forks as well as a cough every once in a while.

Suddenly, an loud, angry male voice was heard from the other side of the wall followed by a female voice which dripped with venom. They were arguing something about their relationship and how she caught him with another woman. This made dinner much more awkward than that it already is. All they heard was the angry voices as they ate uncomfortably and tried their best to ignore what is being said and all of the colourful words and insults being thrown at each other. Finally, silence once again fell upon them as they heard a door slamming.

"Well, that was, erm, interesting," Natsu said after finishing his meal and leaning back into his chair. They all slowly nodded their heads in agreement and Lucy got up and grabbed a few plates.

"I will do the dishes," she announced as she went in to the sink and cleaned the plates off.

"Hey, Luce, I've got to go before Erza start beating answers out of me, " the Fire Dragon Slayer said as he grinned.

"Alright, remember that we're all hanging out tomorrow by the beach," the blonde girl replied and Natsu left the room.

"Why do we have to hang out with that idiot, Blondie?" Sting complained as he got up from his seat.

"Says the one whose also blonde..." Lucy mumbled under her breath, knowing that he could still hear with his keen sense of hearing.

"Whatever," he grumbled and left to his room, which he shared with the exceeds. Rogue and Lucy were going to share the other room, luckily there were two beds per room so no one had to share (besides the two exceeds).

"Well, goodnight," she called out to everyone as she went to her room as well. It was late, and she was very tired from all that traveling, dragging the dragon slayers along, and the awkward dinner.

Lucy put her pink suitcase which the exceeds had packed and opened it. She scanned through the clothing, but couldn't find a decent thing to wear for pajamas, 'they forgot to pack my pajamas? How is that even possible?!' she thought to herself as a frown appeared on her face. The bedroom door opened, revealing Rogue who walked into the bedroom with an expressionless face. Lucy suddenly got a good idea and walked up to him.

"Hey Rogue, may I please borrow a shirt of yours? The exceeds seemed to have forgotten to pack my pajamas in," she asked innocently as if it was normal to ask a guy for a shirt to sleep in. Rogue gulped hard and blushed very slightly when he imagined Lucy in his shirt. He nodded as he grabbed his black suitcase and put it on his bed. his hands traveled through the clothing until he found a perfect shirt for Lucy and passed it to her.

When Lucy came back into the room, after changing in the bathroom, Rogue eyes widened and felt a nosebleed coming up. The gray-blue shirt was large for her small figure and went down to her mid-thighs and hung loosely around her shoulders, showing a bit of cleavage. He coughed and looked away so that she would not see him blush.

He silently went underneath the covers of his bed and mumbled a goodnight. Lucy stared at him for a while then stared down at her before looking once again at him. She started to feel self-conscious with what she was wearing and if he didn't like it. Turning off the lights, she head towards her bed, which was the one nearest to the window, in the dark room and went underneath the covers when she finally made it to the furniture and after hitting her toe on objects and stumbling a few times. She closed her eyes and let sleep take her away.

Later that night, she woken up with tears in her eyes as she hugged herself; Lucy was scared. The blonde let out another whimper when the lightning flashed and the thunder barked. She didn't really want to admit, but she was petrified of thunderstorms. "Rogue?" She called out very softly to see if he was awake by any chance. Luckily for her, she heard a low hm sound in return, "uhm, do you mind if I sleep by you...?"

Rogue was stunned at what she just asked. His heart beat pounded faster and it felt as if it was going to burst out of his chest at any moment now. He knew he couldn't say no to her now, not in the state she was in, but he also knew that he shouldn't take full advantage of her. "Sure," he said and he soon felt weight of Lucy's body on the right side of the bed. They lay there in silence and on their backs with a lot of space between them which they didn't dare to close at the moment.

"What was life like when you were younger?" Lucy randomly asked, breaking the silence. Rogue wasn't sure how to answer her since he didn't even expected to be asked that.

"Well, I was raised by the shadow dragon, Skiadrum. I don't really remember my real parent, but my foster parents was alright. He taught me all the things I need to know to become a dragon slayer. I, the same what Sting did, killed my dragon with my own hands to become a real dragon slayer. It wasn't something I was truly proud of, but I wanted to surpass my idol, Gajeel. After the death of Skiadrum, I found my exceed Frosch, which I raised and took care of as if it was my own son. Later on, I met Sting and we got a lacrima planted inside of us and from that day on, the third generation of dragon slayers were born. Together we found the guild Sabertooth, the number one guild in Fiore since the strongest Fairy Tail member had mysteriously disappeared, and that was basically it," he finished whilst looking at the white ceiling.

"Wow," was all that Lucy could say. 'It must be hard to kill someone who had raised you, but Sting and Rogue don't even show any guilt, but I believe they hide it deep within their hearts,' she thought to herself.

"What about you?" He asked and turned to face her.

"When I was born, I lived a happy life with my mother and father. My family was rich and although my dad had lots of work to do, he still spend a lot of quality time with mother and I, but that all changed when she died. He became distant and only concentrated on work and money, not giving a care about me. At the age of seventeen, I found the courage and finally ran away from home and in Hargeon I came across Natsu who then took me to Fairy Tail, my dream guild. Lots of events happened there such as the Phantom Lord, Tower of heaven Laxus and his group starting a war to take over Fairy Tail, Nirvana, and last but not least, Tenrou incident. After being frozen for seven years, I was happy to be back in Magnolia, although much had changed. I found out that my father had left me many gifts and I wanted to visit him but to only found out that he had died two months earlier. I regret not visiting him before the S-Class Examination, but now he is in heaven with mother. And now, here I am, a Sabertooth mage, but I do not regret leaving Fairy Tail, because I met you along with other great people," she finished with a smile but it quickly faded away when thunder roared. Lucy jumped and scooted over to Rogue and whimpered. Rogue held her in his arms, telling her that she is safe and that she does not have to be afraid of thunder or lightning and with that, they fell asleep.
