A/N: I hope you're still with me. Sorry if it took me so long to update.

Slowly I opened my eyes. The first thing I notice is the bright sunlight coming from the open window signaling that it was already morning.

Slowly I began to take the surroundings around me. From the beige colored walls, the television located in front of the bed, frames and the pair of earphones located in the bedside table.

"Good Morning Sunshine." Laxus greeted me. He was leaning on the door, watching me.

I closed my eyes for a while. And I began to remember the events that happened yesterday. All of it.

"Hey.." I felt him sitting on the edge of the bed.

When I opened my eyes I saw him looking at me with concern.

"Are you okay?" He said.

I nod. "Good Morning.." I greeted him.

"I brought you clothes to wear. Take a bath first then we will eat." He said before kissing me in my forehead.

Once I was in his bathroom I began think. Yesterday I was almost raped, he saved me, he kissed me and then all of a sudden he stopped. What is the real score between us? All in due time? What was that supposed to mean? I wish I have the courage to ask him.

As I emerged from the bathroom wearing a pair of jeans and a blouse which I think he brought somewhere I saw him sitting on his couch and once he saw me he quickly stood up and led me outside of his condo.

"Where are we going?" I asked him while averting my gaze. I just can't afford to look at him.

"Hmm? We will eat." He replied.

"Why do have to eat outside?" I raise a curious brow still averting my gaze.

"I don't know how to cook.." He answered.

"I can cook..." I murmured enough for him to hear.

To my surprise he holds my chin and titled it upwards forcing to look at him.

"I know but as much as I want you to cook for me I don't want to exhaust you, maybe next time." He smiled at me.

Smile? He's smiling now. Not just a grin or a smirk but a smile. A real one.

I ordered pancakes with chocolate syrup on top and a hot chocolate while Laxus only ordered a cup of coffee.

"What are you planning to do today?" He asked me as we ate.

"Hmm.. I have classes today." I replied while munching my pancakes.

"What time?" He continued asking.

"At eleven." I simply answered.

"Until?" He asked again.

"Five. Why?" I asked him this time.

But instead of answering he just gave me another question.

"You don't have duties at the restaurant today right?" He inquires but I did not bother to answer him this time.

"After this I'll take you home so you can prepare, for your classes. Then I'll pick you up before eleven to take you to school and after that I'll be picking you up again after school." He explained.

"So now you're acting as my bodyguard?" I mocked him.

He grins "Suite yourself but I'll be more delighted if you will refer me as your boyfriend."

After his pick-up line which caused me to redden. We do as what he explained. He took me home then he picks me up before my class.

"Class Dismissed.." Our professor declared ending our class for today fifteen minutes late that it should be.

When I reached the gate I quickly notice three people.. One with blue hair, a guy with long green hair and a female with brown hair.

"Why are you here?" I asked them surprised.

"Master Laxus is doing something so he called us to escort you home." Freed answered.

"What? But you don't have to do that I can take care of myself." I gave them a reassuring smile.

"We heard what happened yesterday and it's an order from Master which I will never disobey." Freed said with determination.

And with that I wasn't able to say no. While we were walking on our way to my home which usually took me less than thirty minutes our silent walk was suddenly interrupted by a loud growling sound which is owned by no other that Bickslow.

"Where's your manners!" Evergreen said as she continues to whack Bickslows head.

"What can I do I'm hungry!" Bickslow retorted.

"Do you want to eat? I know a place near here that serves delicious food." I invited them.

"Are you sure? We don't want to bother you." Freed said.

"Yes. Don't mind this perverted idiot." Evergreen added.

"No it's fine with me. Let's go.."

In less than an hour we already reached the place I am referring and we have ordered some burgers, fries, chicken and soft drinks. When they started eating it was clear that Bickslow is not the only one who is hungry but as well as Freed and Evergreen although they tried their very best to act like they're not.

"You told me Laxus is doing something right? What is it?" I blurted the question that has been lingering in head.

"Hmm.. He's filing a case for those two who have the guts to touch ya." Bickslow answered.

"What? He does not have to do that! They were already beaten and I think that's enough. Where is he? I have to talk to him!" I asked them preparing to leave.

"No don't do that. They deserve it!" Evergreen said through greeted teeth.

"I agree. And besides ya can't stop Master Laxus from doing that. Beating them is not enough if you'll ask meh." Bickslow added.

"Just let Master Laxus do that. He is quite over protective when it comes to you." Freed said

Over protective? Me?

"Yeah. At first I thought ya are just his flavor of the month but I guess I'm wr-" before Bickslow could even finish what he was about to say I cut him off.

"Flavor of the month?" I asked with my eyes wide with surprise as the revelation.

"Oh yeah. Master Laxus used to have different girls that changed almost every week before." Bickslow explained and I can see Evergreen and Freed giving him a warning look on my peripheral vision.

"R-Really?" I choked.

"Yes. But don't worry they are nothing compared to you I bet that he doesn't even know their names." Bickslow said.

I took a deep breath. I don't know but I suddenly found it hard to breath.

I was now laying on my bed thinking. I've been thinking for a long time. It was now dark outside with the rain falling from the sky.

Flavor of the month?

"Oh yeah. Master Laxus used to have different girls that changed almost every week before."

I don't know but those words just kept on repeating on my mind. So he's that kind of guy huh?

I took a deep breath.

I will do something about it.

A/N: There. The problem and conflicts arouses.

R&R guys! :)
