Chapter 5
Will You Be Mine?
The scene opened up showing Mariah waking up in the guild. Shocked at what she saw; she stood up and stretched. Was everything a dream? The job, The authority, all a dream? She walked into the main room seeing everyone smiling and laughing.

"Oi! Mariah!" A familiar voice said.

She looked to her side where she heard the voice and she was right. It was master Natsu waving and smiling.

"Oh.. Hey!" Mariah said.

Still confused she walked over to the counter where Natsu sat.

"How's it going?" Natsu said with a cheerful tone.
"I'm good.. A little confused. But good." Mariah said softly.
"Well that's good." Natsu said.

Mariah looked to the main room seeing everyone dressed nicely, looking up at the main door she could see a sign that says "Happy Valentines Day." It was valentines day? She thought to herself before looking back up seeing everyone exchanging heart chocolates and flowers.

"Happy Valentines day by the way." Natsu said while patting Mariah's back.
"You too.. Um where's Noah?" Mariah asked.
"Him and Tai went on a job. But he left you a note." Natsu said as he reached into his pocket.

He handed Mariah the note with a smile. Mariah walked over to an empty table and sat so she could read the note. "Dear Mariah, meet me at the park at 7:00 pm, dress nice." That's all the note said. She put the note in her pocket and brushed her hair to the side.

"Why does he want me to meet him at the park?" She thought to herself as a slight blush came across her face.

She eventually left the guild and went to her apartment which was not too far from the guild.

"Do I have something nice...?" She said as she examined in her closet.

She then closed her closet. She began to thought about what he said. "Dress nice." She then thought about going out and buying a dress. She nodded in agreement to herself and grabbed her purse and ran out of her apartment.

A few hours pass. It was 6:00 PM when she looked at her clock. She was wearing a pink dress and curled her hair.

"An hour left. Why am I so nervous..? What's happening?" She said into the mirror.

She left her apartment at 6:50 and made her way to the park.

"I guess I'm about to find out what's up.." She said quietly.

Once she arrives at the park Noah was standing under the oak tree with flowers and chocolates in his hand. She blushed a little and walked up to him.

"Noah?" Mariah asked out.

He turned and smiled, he was wearing a nice tuxedo and was smiling pretty wide.

"Hey.." He said with a happy and soft tone.
"Um.. Happy Valentines day.." Mariah said with a small smile.

Noah walked up and handed her the flowers and chocolates.

"Mariah. Will you be mine?" Noah said softly.

There was a pause, Mariah was flustered and couldn't speak. But she eventually said.

"Yes.." She said softly.

Noah then grabbed her waist and began to pull her close.

Everything then went black.

"Hey! Quit talking in your sleep! Pissing me off!" Shuga said as he punched the cell bars.

Mariah sat up.

"Only a dream.. Of course.." She said.

The scene switched to Noah and Rao fighting. Noah flipped over Rao and spun; kicking him off his feet but Rao flips forward onto his feet and dashed at Noah again.

"Noah.. Please hurry." Mariah said as the scene darkened.
