I honestly didn't expect that 'a short fairy tale' would get as many reviews as it did. That really shocked me. Sorry for the OOCness.

I'm thinking about making my earlier headcannon into a threeshot. Would Rogue/Wendy/Sting interest you guys?

Oh and thanks for all the reviews and favorites and alerts and everything; you guys make my day!


"W-who are you?" The Sky Maiden asked in a quivering voice, weakly trying to put distance between the both of us by pushing herself back further into the bed.

I'm honestly not going to lie- I was never good with younger children to start with and when I saw how weak Wendy Marvell was then, I panicked.

"No no! Don't do that, you should be resting! I'm not here to hurt you; you're going to strain yourself! Don't..." I practically ran to her while saying this frantically, trying to get her to settle back into the bed, I didn't know that I was making it worse until she let out a small scream while I tried to calm her down and accidentally grabbed her arm.

"Don't touch me!"

The sudden velocity of her voice made me step back in shock, my eyes widened in shock as I placed my hands out in a surrendering motion. Man, she was pretty fussy for a small girl.

But then again, if what Lector told me was true (and knowing the Exceed, it was probably some oddly twisted form of the truth), if Wendy stayed in Magnolia instead of going to Tenroujima with that one council member, she would've been the same age as Rogue, Sting and I.

Realizing that small piece of information now made me swallow nervously. I decided to bow as my long floppy bunny ears folded apathetically.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you..." I muttered, and stared at my feet. My hands slipped into my pocket, where I placed the glass bottle and I held onto it almost reassuringly.

My apology was met with a series of heavy pants and I decided to look up.

Wendy was looking at me with her wide brown, her face clearly reading of what she thought of me at the moment.

Suspicious Bunny Girl, I bet.

And yet her eyebrows were slightly arched, like it pained her to see me.

It'll better to give her the potion now, I thought sadly as I watched her relax and sink into her pillow, I'll be able to avoid any unnecessary trouble then but then she won't trust me.

"Who are you?" she asked again, turning towards me with her cat in her arms, "you didn't answer before."

"I'm Lily Harvard," the blunette nodded for me to continue, "Sabertooth mage."

I turned slightly to show her my guild mark on my shoulder- an ink black tattoo on reddened skin. She looked sort of spooked at that so I quickly added that I wouldn't hurt her.

"Why are you here then?" She asked, her tone softening. It was now or never.

And like any other time, I decided to just say the truth it because I was never mentally prepared for anything of the sort.

"My team mates- well not really team mates, more like my... a dense idiot and his friend told me to come here and give you this," I took the glass bottle out from my pocket and held it out to her. The way Wendy's face changed so quickly from relaxed to scared in mere seconds was so funny that I couldn't hold in the gorilla snort that came in between my hushed giggles.

"I'm not going to make you drink it now of course- I was just told to give this to you, whether you want to drink it is your choice." I continued when I stopped giggling. I placed the bottle on the table beside her bed and she followed my hands curiously.

"What... is it?" Wendy's soft voice asked, "It looks..."

"Reassuring?" I offered and let myself smile a bit to make her feel more comfortable "it's a potion made specially for air magic users. Though this one is probably just for you since the shade is a little different than what I'm used to; it replenishes- no, it makes it so that you replenish your magic power more quickly. The last time I used it; I was practically dead to glowing with energy within minutes."

She nodded slowly and closed her eyes. When she opened them again, it looked like she was about to cry, "Once I take it... will I...?"

The only sound that came out was a hopeful sigh as I watch tears stream from the girl's cheeks. What I did say sounded harsher out loud than in my head, "you need to sleep after taking it or else your body's going to shut down on you, but you're good then after."

Wendy sniffled a little as she nodded once again and I took it as my queue to leave.

Just when I was about to step out into the hall, the young girl shouted in a meek voice, "thank you, Lily!"

My hand was still on the door knob when I turned back, "you're welcome, Wendy."

The door closed behind me as I quickly retreated away from the infirmary.

Fairy Tail's physician was Porlyushka, right? She would kill me if she saw me wondering around their guild's injured person.

But still, something made me want to go back and check on her and maybe stay; she was young and she reminded me of my old team mate- Emily back in the days when I was an absolute normal human being.

I bit my lip lightly as I made my way through the winding halls.

Maybe tomorrow, I promised myself, maybe tomorrow...


"Took long enough, Bunny Girl." Sting was complaining from across the hall when I finally rounded the corner. My heart threatened to leap out from my chest at the sight of him.

"Sorry, she was awake!" I ran up to him and blushed. Sting was about a head taller than I was, and maybe he didn't notice it but he tended to give people these looks that just made him oh so sexy even at the most random of times.

He was teasing me quite harshly about my choice in clothing when we finally reached the door to Sabertooth's viewing area- claiming that the collar that was connected to my off the shoulder sleeves and my pink ribbon made it impossible for him to 'appreciate' the view he could've got, a comment that rendered me speechless for the next few minutes until he started talking about one of his playthings. A topic of which I greatly opposed to, and he knew it. We were arguing quite loudly about whether or not his latest girlfriend's breasts were real when Rufus stuck his head out from the doorway and frankly but quite politely told us to shut up.

"Ladies first," he smirked at me as he did a mock bow and gestured for me to go, another blush spread across my face as I placed my hands out in front of me.

"Sting, I don't think I'm-"

"C'mon, the woman isn't even here. No one would notice."

The guild would, I thought darkly. I really did want to stay, I really did but something was bothering me for a while, and I wanted to go check it out. Alone.

Apologizing once again, I quickly fled down the winding halls and away from Sting before he could utter another word.

He wouldn't care after all.

He'll get over it quickly and maybe bother Rogue while they watch people wrestle in the dirt.

It wouldn't make Sting see me in a new light- I will always be like a sister to him.

And he was interested in that Heartfilia girl.

So who was I to get in between them?
