Knock knock. "I'll get it," said Mirajane, getting up to open the big doors. They swung open to reveal seven hooded figures.

"Eh?" Lucy started to move back from the suspicious figures. The center person reached up their hand and started to pull back their hood. The guild watched with bated breath and terrified faces.

That is, until a sprig of blue hair and a red facial tattoo appeared. "Jellal," Erza gasped. One by one, the remaining people removed their hoods to reveal Meredy, Midnight, Hoteye, Racer, Angel, and...

"Erik?" they heard Kinana breathe. The spiky-haired man looked over at her, eye wide. "Cubellios?" She flew at him, almost knocking him over. Cobra gingerly reached a hand to touch her face.

"Cubellios..." Kinana blushed, but gently pushed his hand away. "Actually, it's Kinana now." Cobra's face hardened. "Really, now." Kinana looked at him worriedly, but then his face softened.

"Very well then, Kinana." He put his hands on her shoulders and pushed her back a little, trying to absorb her features. She stared back into his eye, unspoken words passing between them, literally.

He could hear her words in his head. I found you, Erik. She could hear his words as well. And I found you, Cubel- Kinana.

She grinned, bringing up her thumb to trace the scar where his eye used to be. He involuntarily shuddered, causing her to giggle. He smiled slightly at her happy expression.

Kinana ran her hand under his chin, drawing him nearer. "I missed you," he breathed. Kinana just leaned her face closer, closer, until a flash of scarlet distracted them.

They turned to see Erza had launched herself at Jellal, and had pushed him to the ground. "Where were you?" she demanded. Jellal smiled ruefully as he propped himself back up.

"Crime Sorciére has been busy." "You didn't contact!" Angel coughed with amusement. "As much fun as this is, we already have one pair of lovebirds over there," she gestured at Cobra and Kinana, "and we don't need another."

Jellal and Erza looked over and smiled knowingly. Meanwhile, Cobra and Kinana blushed violently and stepped back. Looking down to the side, Kinana's voice echoed in Cobra's head. Are you leaving?

He shrugged in response. Probably. Kinana sighed, but nodded. I'll be here waiting. Meredy called from the open doorway. "Come on, guys, we need to reach that dark guild before it leaves!" Jellal got up reluctantly and moved over to the group, while Cobra moved to do the same.

"Wait," cried Kinana. Cobra turned. "What?" She leaned up to place a kiss on his cheek, causing him to turn scarlet. "What was that for?" "Come back soon, okay? Now go." She pushed him toward the grinning remainder of the guild.

As they filed out of the building, they heard Midnight whisper "Lover Boy" to Cobra, who turned his face away and told him to "shut up".

However, Angel just poked him and giggled about his new "girlfriend". He had hissed at her, but the teasing wouldn't stop. On the other end, Kinana was swamped with whoops, cheering, and many questions.

The main supplier was Mirajane, who both looked excited at the prospect of a new couple, and horror that she didn't realize it sooner. Kinana blushed and stumbled under all the attention.

"Alright, alright," Erza shouted, causing the crowd to die down. Erza smiled a knowing smile at Kinana, who grinned back. But then, the scarlet-haired mage turned the color of her hair.

"Oh, no," she shrieked. "I was flirting with Jellal! But- but- his fiancée...!" Her last words trailed off in a dead faint when she realized what she thought she had done. When Mira heard that, her eyes started to water. "Fiancée? But... Jerza," she whimpered.

The whole guild started to panic, as Titania lay in a faint, and the She-Demon started to cry. In the chaos, Kinana slipped away behind the bar. Erik? Can you hear me? she thought.

While she didn't expect a reply, it came clear as day.

I hear you, Kinana.

This ending though... one of the weirdest things I've ever written for Fairy Tail. But hey, Kinabra! SNOWY, ARE YOU HAPPY NOW? Also Jerza. Couldn't resist.
