'Okay, Dad, I'm ready.' I looked over at Sunshine. Her chocolate orbs shone through her black, thick-framed, ray-bans. Her rosey cheeks were smiling and she was happy, and so was I. Levy died, three years ago. She had died on a mission. I cried so much, my eyes were swollen for weeks, I could barely look at Sunshine, she reminded my far to much of Levy. I guess I became more protective of Sunshine, as to make up for something, hell, I even went to Church! Church is good. We do go once every two weeks, because then, maybe, I'll find something to make up for. But, I still don't know what to do. It wasn't my fault, but I wouldn't let it go with it being someone else's -I was her husband, I am, still.

No time to be moppey. Sunshine starts school, secondary school, quite soon indeed. Today, in half an hour. She's attending Zentopia Liberty High and Middle school Magnolia. Wow, she's getting there. She is going to something called, Liceo classico,it's a section of the school in which they cover only certain subjects. She'll be doing: English language and literature, Latin, Ancient Greek, History, Geography, Religious Studies, Philosophy, Maths, Physics, Natural Science and Art History. That seems like a lot, really, for a twelve year old. She has (Including break and lunch) a 9 hour day. School finishes at 5:00, starts at 8 and electives and cram school mostly finish around 7 or 8. So, it's about 7.15, and we need to leave, and I'll help her catch the tram and then she'll be at school. With 12-18 year old boys. Who will look up her skirt and try and get in her pants and...I won't even think, what else those idiots could do! Anyways,-

'Dad, come back from Lala land. School, 7.25 tram, to catch?' Sunshine exclaimed, her waves in a neat ponytail tied with her mothers yellow bandana. Her uniform consisted of a light blue shirt, navy blue tie, Red sweater vest with the Zentopia crest, and a black blazer. Finally, her favorite green converses and navy blue knee high skirt, with navy blue tights. 'Um, yes, get Lily, and we'll shoot off.' I replied.


I stood at they gates with my two best friends, Freya and Cassiopeia. 'Lets do this, hot older boys a beckon, and we'll get some manly guys, not babies!' Cassie said. 'Well, you won't find a guy manlier than your dad, I mean ElfMAN! Thank god you've got your Mothers luck, that would have been some ugly crap on a girl!' I replied. We giggled into school.

We moved into the assembly hall. The headmaster went on about something and then we went into our form class. Freya, Jeremy and Luna are in my class. Which is good to know. We did a few ice breakers, and then after lunch was the society rally. Societies and club try and make you sign up. There was Cheer leading, Art, Music and other but I finally made a decision, so this was my club schedule:

Monday- Physics and Maths society

Tuesday-Music Society

Wednesday-Languages Society

Thursday- Literature Society

Friday- Philosophy Society

Saturday- Cram School and Sports society.

Just great! I'm settling in and everything is going well. Just as I was about to leave the rally, when a handsome looking third year with a megaphone spoke. 'Everyone, I am Jonas Freedorhurst. I'm president of the lower school Royal Society. This year we will have a selection process and only the best can join. In three weeks time, there will be a selection ball, boys and girls invited. We'll scout you out there. Be sure to make your way, and as usually, the dress code is Royalty. Well, see you there!' Jonas stepped off his podium and left the school gates, followed by flocks of girls after him.


After leaving school, I arrived home, to my father and Lily cooking up dinner. They bombarded me with masses of Q and A. I went upstairs to relax. I starred out the window of my room of our 3 bedroom flat. I analyzed the city lights before looking back to my favorite book- Well, books, one hundred and one fairy tales. My mother gave it to me. I shed a tear thinking about ma. The way she smelt like ink, paper and lemon blossom. Her soft cheeks. Her smooth hair. Her smile and sweet embrace. It hurts me to think how dad must feel. It must feel like someone severed his heart. Knock. I turned and looked out my window. It was Rozen-kun. He looked at me and mouthed, 'Could I come in?'. I opened up the window to let him in. 'Sorry, I need a place to crash.' He said.

'Sure, why, though?' I asked wiping my tears away. 'Did something happen.'

'Why else would I be chilling on your fire escape?' He replied, laying down on the bed.

'When you're bored, tired, can't get home, ect...Anyway, why this time.'

'My dad. He's being stupid and stuff. Grace and Trinity are scared as hell, so I bought them with me.' Outside perching on the fire escape were Rozen's 5 year old twin sisters, Grace and Trinity. They're big brown eyes starred at me, swollen and upset. Gracie, Trin, d'you wanna come in?' I asked. They dully nodded and came through the window with their matching bags. At that moment, Lily came in. 'Oh, are we having a dinner party Sunshine?'

'Um, well, Natsu's being, um...' I said, but Lily cut me off, flying through the door. He then screeched out, 'Gajeel, set three more seats, Rozen, Grace and Trinity are here!'


Ahhh, that was a good long chappie. New chapter soon, already started work on it.

Lots of Love,
