BlackLynx17: Hi everyone! I'm hope you're enjoying this!

Edolas.

Chapter 3.

"Doranbolt, I don't want to go back." I mumbled cutely.

Doranbolt paused from his packing and turned back, staring right at me with a slight frown on his face. How could he be so quick to leave? There was nothing waiting for us back there at home... where there were people waiting, but still! Wasn't he enjoying just his me time? I know I was. Why would I want to go back home where she was at? I slowly rolled around in the bed and gave him a small pout. He just simply stared back at me before going back to packing.

"Wendy we've already finished our mission and stayed an extra four days because 'your feet hurt,'" he bent his fingers at me, "we need to start heading back home."

I rolled my eyes at him although he couldn't see it, "it's only been a week... and four days, yet you say it like we've been gone years. Not like a few more days would make and difference and my feet actually did hurt Doranbolt!"

"Yeah, yeah, they should be better now though, right? If they still hurt I'll carry you back home."

"But Doran!" I whined cutely.

I was suddenly was squealing as I was dragged down the bed. Doranbolt grabbed my leg and pushed me to the edge, my butt nearly falling off of it. I clung to him, wrapping my arms and legs around him, while he smirked as he looked down at me.

"Wendy, we are going home." He told me.

"But Doranb-"

He pressed his lips against mine and I melted against him, lightly nipping at his bottom lip for entrance. He parted away from me leaving me yearning for me, still having that defiant look in his eyes.

"We're going home," he repeated.

I pouted, seeing his game now; well two could play at that. My fingers started getting lost in his hair as I stared up innocently at him, fluttering my eyelashes as I nibbled on my bottom lip.

"Please Doran?"

I felt him stiffen up a bit against me before he leaned down and kissed me again. It was slow and soft, so I thought he had given into me, but as he pulled away I spotted the defiant smirk as he told me.

"No."

Dammit Doranbolt! Time to pull out the big guns! I started crying, tears streaming down my cheeks as I whimpered lightly. That finally did it; his smirk turned to an immediate frown as he started stroking my hair to calm me down.

"Please Mest? Please? I don't want to go back, please? Just a few more days?" I cried.

He sighed out heavily before groaning out a long, "fiiiiiiiiiiine."

My tears disappeared in an instance as I leaned up and squeezed him tightly, "hooray! I love you Doranbolt!"

He sighed out again and held onto me for a quick second before dropping me back on the bed and walking away. I grinned to myself and crawled under the covers, planning on taking a small nap until late afternoon. I saw him start to walk back to our luggage and unpack; he paused all of a sudden.

"Hmmm." He hummed.

"What?" I asked, wondering if he was about to restart the fight.

"Oh nothing, nothing really. I just mean, we kind of left Charlie on short notice. We know she was visiting the other exceeds with Happy, but we left so suddenly she didn't even get the chance to say goodbye to us. We've been gone for quite a while, I'm sure she's returned home already. No worries though, she had a key to your apartment. She won't be locked out, hurt maybe to see us not back after leaving so suddenly, but at least she won't be locked out."

My heart started racing and I shut my eyes closed, no worries. No worries at all. Charlie doesn't mind us leaving, as long as I tell her or leave her a note when I leave... which I didn't do it this time. No worries though! She'll understand when I explain what was happening, she won't be too mad at me! I'll be able to make it up to her for sure!

"She's probably missing us right now, although I'm sure the Edolas people are more than welcoming her back at the guild. Who knows, maybe she'll see your Edolas-self and try to befriend her-"

"What are you doing Doranbolt?! Teleport us home right away! Right now!" I yelled hopping out of bed.

Doranbolt had this wide grin on his face and I growled, throwing one of the bed's pillows at him; he blocked it and started packing again.

"That was so unfair."

"You're the one who doesn't trust she won't replace you."

Replace... I paused and slowly leaned up, my eyes widening. Replace? Me? With Edolas Wendy? That, that all makes sense. Charlie was originally from Edolas, so originally she was supposed to belong to Edolas Wendy, but she's mine. My partner, my best friend. Now that Edolas-Me is here though... Charlie, Charlie...

"Wendy? Wendy!"

"She's going to replace me for me!" I cried out loud and hard.

"I was joking Wendy! Wendy! Ugh, Wendy..."

"CHARLIE!"

I ran into the guild, screaming her name and crying as I went. She turned up, her ears flicking as she heard me, before flying into my waiting arms. She hugged me just as fierce and wrapped her tail around my arm.

"Wendy! What's wrong? What did he do?!" She meowed at me.

I couldn't stop the tears of relief from falling down my face since I saw her sitting with our Natsu, Happy, and Lucy. In other words, she was far away from Edolas-Me and I was glad for not being replaced.

"YOU!" She screamed flying out of my arms.

"Charlie!" I called out trying to reach her.

Doranbolt was unprepared as she flung to him, to which he yelled out and tried to hold her back from scratching him.

"Charlie! What the hell?" He yelled flinching away.

"What did you do to Wendy?!" She meowed.

"Ow, I didn't do anything! Wendy!" Doranbolt yelled.

"It's true Charlie! Stop that!" I told her.

She retracted her claws and looked over at me, "then why were you crying?"

"Because," I blushed, "I missed you."

"Oh." Charlie said getting off of Doranbolt.

She looked sheepish at him and turned her head away, "sorry for overreacting."

"I thought we were passed the part where you think I'll hurt Wendy every other second?" Doranbolt asked her.

"... seems not," she shrugged before flying over to me, giving me a small pat on my head. "I missed you too Wendy; thanks for leaving without telling me."

"I'm sorry Charlie, a lot was going on at the time and I'm just really happy to have you right now." I mumbled hugging her close.

Doranbolt shook his head at us and started walking away; I looked out the corner of my eye and spotted him going to the bar where Kinana was attending. Good, far away from Edolas Wendy as possible. Thinking about her though, I turned my attention back to Charlie.

"Have you met my Edolas-self?" I whispered in her ears.

They twitched, "no, I just got back today with Happy, literally three minutes ago. We were greeting Natsu and Lucy when you came back in, I noticed the doubles though around the guild. I think they were just about to tell us after they found out how our trip went. Wendy, you sound a little scared. Are you sure Doranbolt didn't do anything to you?" Charlie asked, tilting her head at me.

I bit my bottom lipped and looked around; I barely spotted anyone from Edolas sitting inside of the guild, myself included, and most of the people from Fairy Tail were gone as well. Where they went I had no idea, but this was a good thing.

"Charlie, I have a lot to tell you." I said.

"Well then tell me Wendy, you know I'll always listen to you." Charlie said.

"Not here, come on." I said getting up.

Charlie flew on my shoulder and I started walking to one of Fairy Tail's many back rooms so I could fill her in everything that's been happening. Charlie always knew what to do, she could make everything all better. Talking to her always seemed to make me feel better.
