Even though the group was only going to the park, Mirajane and Lisanna had insisted on changing Wendy into something outside of the light green night gown she had been wearing earlier. Instead she was now wearing a cream colored knit sweater and a black skirt, she wore a pair of black tights and black slip on shoes. The three girls met Romeo by the guilds main entrance. Lisanna carried the basket of sandwiches and drinks she had packed just before while Mira took charge of pushing Wendy in her wheelchair. Romeo had a table cloth that he had dug out of a storage closet in the guild slung over his shoulder so that they could use it as a picnic blanket.

"Wow!" Wendy exclaimed as she exited the guild for the first time in what felt like an eternity. "Oh I've missed the fresh air!"

"You ready to go down to the park?" Mirajane asked.

"Yep. Thank you so much for this." The blue haired girl had been thanking the two sisters since they had agreed to go with her and Romeo. It was her first time leaving the guild since her accident, and she was just ecstatic.

As the four made their way through the town to the park, Wendy happily pointed out nearly everything they passed. The flowers blooming in the trees, the stores that lines the market place, the boats going down the river that cut through the little city. When the group finally made it to the park, they went along the pathway looking for a spot for their picnic.

"How about by that tree over there?" Romeo suggested, pointing towards a large tree with flowers blossoming on its branches. "Wendy could lean against the tree trunk, and there's a lot of shade."

Mira nodded in approval. "What do you think Wendy?"

"It's perfect." She smiled.

Romeo ran ahead to begin laying out the picnic blanket. He made sure to place it as close to the tree as he could, but had some troubles keeping it flat. It got to the point where one of the sides was just bunched up some in order to make room for the large tree trunk. As soon as the three girls had reached the spot, he offered to help Wendy out of her chair. There was a slight slope, so Mira held onto the wheel chair while Romeo got ready to pick Wendy up. The sky mage leaned forward wrapped her arms around the boys shoulders, as she did when anyone helped her out of her chair. Romeo had a little struggle lifting her out of the chair at first, but once he had successfully picked her up it was easy to walk her over to the spot under the tree. He rested her on the ground so that her back was leaned against the tree for support.

"Thank you." Wendy smiled up at him.

"No problem." Romeo nodded. He turned around to see if he could help with anything else, but Mira and Lisanna were already sitting down and taking out the food from the basket, so he just sat down where he was.

Lisanna spread the plates of sandwiched across the blanket to that there were some near everyone, placing one close enough to Wendy so that even she could reach them easily. She also took out cups and drinks and passed them around. Mirajane helped Wendy with the drinks by pouring a glass for her. The four mages sat happily and enjoyed some small talk between sandwiches.

"What are you looking at Wendy?" Mira asked the girl who was starring up into the branches of the tree.

"Just the flowers." Wendy responded. "I was thinking that they were just really pretty."

"Want one?" Romeo asked. When the crippled girl nodded he stood up and reached towards a flower that was on a low branch. It was still pretty high up though so he had to go on his tippy toes just to reach it. Once he finally picked it off of the branch, he sat back down and handed the flower to the girl. "Here you go."

Wendy smiled down at the pinkish blossom in her hands. "Thank you so much."

"Well, well. Aren't you quite the gentleman?" Lisanna smirked, jokingly elbowing the boy.

"I'm not a gentleman or anything like that. I was just helping out." Romeo explained, his face looked a little more on the red side.

"Sure you're not." The girl chuckled.

Romeo was about to protest again before he decided that defending himself wasn't going to help anything. Instead he just took another sandwich from the plate in the middle.

After what turned out to be hours, they began packing up the lunch. Romeo helped Wendy get settled back into her chair then folded the picnic blanket back up. Wendy said than you several times over as they made their way back to the guild. When they finally arrived, Mira and Lisanna literally pushed Wendy at Romeo, forcing him to guild her back to her bed in the medical room. Since they had left late to begin with, it was already late.

"I can just sleep in this." Wendy said, referring to the clothes she had worn out.

"Are you sure? Cause I don't mind helping you." Romeo asked, just to make sure.

"Well, if you don't mind, do you think you could um….." The blue haired girl's face turned pink. Romeo stayed where he was and simply looked at her, waiting for her to finish. "Do you think you could help me with the bathroom?" She asked at last.

Romeo's own face got a little hot at the question. "S-sure. What part do you need help with?"

"Just sitting down and getting up really." Wendy said. She ignored the look of relief on Romeo's face when she had said that. "I can do most of it on my own."

"Right. Ok." Romeo nodded then went over to her to pick her up. He kneeled down in front of her, facing away, so that he could give her a piggy back ride. After Wendy had a good hold around his neck, he slipped his arms under her unusable legs and stood up. He made with way into the bathroom. He turned around so that he could set Wendy directly on the toilet before it dawned on him. "You need help with your pants, don't you?"

"Uh huh." Wendy nodded, a large blush spread across her face.

"I hope to god no one walks in while I'm doing this." Romeo muttered before squatting in front of Wendy. Grabbed onto the belt loops on her pants and shut his eyes tightly before hooking a finger over the rim of her pants on either side and pulling her pants down her lifeless legs. He was pretty sure that he had managed to pull her underwear with the pants, but he wasn't about to open his eyes to check. He pulled the denim clothing to where Wendy's knees were and decided that was far enough. He quickly stood up, eyes still closed, and turned around to face away from the girl. "I'll be waiting outside." He told her before quickly exiting the room and closing the door behind him. He leaned against the door, his face bright red. "I can't believe I just did that." He said to himself. "I don't see why Mirajane couldn't have just done this herself. How the hell am I supposed to get her pants back up with my eyes closed? Erm, maybe she could do it herself? Although I guess she would have been able to take them off on her own if she could do that."

"R-romeo." Wendy called from through the door. "I'm done."

"G-got it." The young fire mage swallowed his nerves and closed his eyes upon entering the room. "Do you need help with anything other than your pants?"

"No."

"Ok then. Um, this is gonna be a bit awkward, but do you think you could help me find them since I have my eyes closed?" Romeo heard a giggle coming from the girl.

"Sure. Give me your hands." Wendy instructed. When the boy in question extended his hands out to her, she reached forward to take them in her own. Wendy guided them to the rim of her jeans and helped him slip his thumbs behind the fabric, slipping the rim of her underwear under them as well. Once he knew he had a good hold, Romeo began to pull the pair of pants back up. It was hard considering he was not only doing this blindly, but Wendy was also sitting which just made it so he had to pull a bit harder.

"Ok. That's all the way up right?" Romeo asked.

"Yep." Wendy nodded.

After getting the verification from the girl, Romeo opened his eyes. He saw the heavy blush on Wendy's face, and figured that this must have been more awkward for her then it was for him. He squatted down so that she could pull herself onto his back once more. When she was situated he stood up and carried her back to her bed. He placed her down on the mattress and helped her get situated under the blankets.

"You know," He began, getting the attention of the girl. "That was probably one of the most embarrassing thing I've ever done." There was a small silence between the two before they both began laughing.

"Then I guess it's a good thing you didn't help me change." Wendy giggled.

"Most likely." Romeo scratched the back of his head. He wasn't about to say it out loud, but he had the sneaking suspicion that changing the sky mage into a nightgown would be a lot easier than helping her use the toilet. He was pretty sure that she would at least be able to change her shirt and put the gown on all by herself, and by then she would be covered enough that he wouldn't even need to worry about closing his eyes when he helped her out of her pants. "Maybe by the next time I'll have figured a better way to do it." When Romeo realized how perverted that had sounded he tried to cover it up. "I mean, you know. When I have to and such."

Wendy giggled. "Come by any time." She smiled up at the boy. "You're a lot of fun Romeo. And thanks again for today."

"Y-yup." Romeo nodded. "Well, good night then." He turned around and left the room, turning the light off on his way out. He tried to avoid making eye contact with anyone while he made his way out of the guild and started heading to his own home. His face was still pretty red.
