Guys, I think I'm having a Toshiro Hitsugaya problem. Is that possible? Oh, and a Mikado Ryuugamine problem. And a Rin Okumura problem. I think I'm becoming a fangirl of many anime guys actually.

Chapter 5

"I'm going to get some fire wood!" Adrianna announced. They were in the woods camping and, even though Adrianna wanted to continue, they insisted on staying.

"Why don't you just make your own fire?" Zeref asked boredly.

"Because I'm tired!" Adrianna whined.

"It would make you even more tired to find wood!"

"I don't care!"

"Is she always this grumpy?" Gray asked quietly. Juvia shushed him.

"How about I get the fire?" Zeref suggested.

"Fine," Adrianna said, sitting down on a log. Zeref rolled his eyes and walked away from the campsite. Wendy crawled over next to Adrianna.

"Dree-san?" She said. "Why did you bring Team Natsu? You and Zeref hate them, even if you like Lisanna." Natsu, Gray, and Erza perked up at that and leaned in to listen. Adrianna gave them a weird look and rolled her eyes.

"Mira works at a bar and Laxus is nowhere to be seen," she said. "Erza was the last choice and Natsu and Gray wouldn't let her have all the 'fun' in defeating Roxanne. Lisanna is very helpful as well. Even though I could have done it myself!" Wendy, Lisanna, Gajeel, and Juvia nodded. It was silent for a few minutes as Adrianna began making the fireplace.

"Why do you hate us?" Erza suddenly asked. Adrianna laughed bitterly, coldly.

"You don't know?" She said icily. "How do you think Lucy Heartfilia felt when you all ignored her? How do you think Lucy Heartfilia felt when you refused to bring her on missions? How do you think Lucy Heartfilia felt when you practically called her weak? Lucy Heartfilia hated the guild of Fairy Tail. The only one's she loved were Wendy, Gajeel, Juvia, Carla, Pantherlily, Lisanna, and Master. She hated the rest of you." Team Natsu minus Lisanna flinched.

"Shut up," Natsu muttered, fists clenched tightly. Adrianna raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, what was that pinky?" She asked.

"I said SHUT UP!" Natsu roared. "Don't talk about Luce like you know her!" He threw a flaming punch at her. Adrianna simply caught his fist, distinguishing the flame.

"Don't call her 'Luce' like you knew her," she said coldly. "You never knew how hard she tried not to be useless. You never understood how hard it was to summon spirits. Lucy Heartfilia is dead because of you. She was my friend, Team Natsu, and you killed her. How do you think I felt when she cried and cried when she told me what happened? I felt angry, and I wanted to avenge her." She glared hotly at Team Natsu. "So don't think that you know her."

"That's enough Adrianna," a voice said smoothly. The group turned to see that Zeref had returned with firewood.

"Gomen ne, Rikuto-kun," Adrianna apologized. "But you know I couldn't keep a secret forever."

"I hate Fairy Tail as much as you do," Zeref said, "but that doesn't mean I have to throw everything they did and didn't do in their face. Let them learn that they aren't invincible, and that maybe, they don't care about nakama as much as they thought."

"And now you decide to be the smart one?" Adrianna asked incredulously. Zeref glared at her.

"I was always smarter than you!" He retorted. "I actually thought things through before heading into battle!"

"Juvia thinks that Adrianna-chan and Rikuto-kun should stop fighting," Juvia said. "Juvia doesn't want it to get out of hand and scare Wendy-chan."

"You're right, Ju-chan!" Adrianna gasped. "Gomen ne, Wen-chan."

"And I was looking forward to seeing you two fight," Gajeel complained. "I've never seen it before!" Adrianne rolled her eyes, but smiled.

Erza's POV

I can't believe how easy it was for Rikuto-san to change Adrianna-san's mood so quickly. They must be really close. Still, I can't help but feel like they're both hiding something. Something very important. I still want to know how Adrianna-san is so close to Lucy. I mean, was so close to her. I still can't believe she died. She never seemed to be the type to just die. She wasn't weak, no matter what I said. I regret taking her off the team. I can't help but reflect on the things she did that we never did.

Lucy always paid for our damages, even though she had to pay for her apartment. She always apologized for us and always knew how to make us happy. Why did I let myself kick her off the team? What possessed me to do so? Lisanna was so angry at us, but I didn't realize why back then. I was such an idiot.

**Flashback**

"Why did you kick Lucy off the team?" Lisanna asked a week after we kicked the Celestial Spirit mage off our team.

"Obviously, we wanted you to be on the team!" Natsu said, grinning stupidly.

"Yes, and Lucy held us back on missions," I had stated. "She never actually fought herself, she just let the spirits do it for her." I failed to notice the dark aura surrounding our old friend.

"That's why you kicked her off?" Lisanna said darkly. "Because she didn't fight? Newsflash, she always fought with her spirits alongside her! Why do you think she has a whip? You are all ignorant and dense. She did more than all of you did. Sure, she had a bit of trouble with some things, but she took care of all of you. You don't know her. You never did."

"Don't talk like that Lisanna," I said, glaring. "You don't know what you're saying." She didn't even flinch. She just scoffed.

"You know what, figure out what you're doing yourself," she said. "I'm not telling you what's wrong about what you did, and I'm not telling you the consequences." She walked away.

**End Flashback**

Back then I didn't realize that Lucy had already left. I didn't even pay attention. What Carla had said felt like a slap in the face.

Zeref's POV

This was how things were supposed to be. Dree was supposed to be happy, and not have Team Natsu interfere with it. It's all their fault to begin with. They broke her, though I am still happy that she decided to come back.

"Hey Dria, why didn't we just take the train?" I asked. I mean, it would have been easier.

"I like the wilderness," she said simply. "And I don't want Wendy to have to use up her magic on two idiots." The pink-haired dude and Gajeel glared at her.

"I'm not an idiot!" They both exclaimed in perfect unison before glaring at each other. "Stop copying me! No you stop! Grrrr…" They began arguing, and somehow that Gray guy got into the fight as well.

"They are idiots," Haru said.

"You're right Haru-kun," Hisako agreed. "All they need to do is stop talking." Haru nodded.

"All boys are idiots," Carla commented, crossing her arms.

"I take offense to that," I said bluntly.

"It's true, just admit it Z- uhh… Kuto," Adrianna said. I glared at her for almost slipping up, but I didn't stay mad at her for long. Something about her just made it hard for me. The longest we'd ever stayed mad at each other was two hours and 46 minutes.

~~Later that night~~

I woke up in the tent to find that Adrianna wasn't there. Knowing that she could take care of herself, I didn't panic, but I still couldn't help being worried. So I walked out the tent and decided to look for her. Knowing my best friend, she was probably in a tree. And I was right.

There she was, sitting on a tree branch, looking at the sky. I climbed up next to her.

"I knew you'd be here," I said. Adrianna looked at me, startled.

"Zeref," she said. "I was looking at the stars. It's a beautiful night. It feels like mom's there, watching over me." I looked up, and I too felt the comfort of the stars.

"You always did like the stars, even as a child," I said. "And even more so when you became Lucy Heartfilia and had Celestial keys." Adrianna leaned against my shoulder, causing me to blush. I was so glad it was dark outside.

"Yes, but why do humans shun the night?" She asked. "It's much more beautiful than the bright sky during the day."

"I agree," I said. "But you shouldn't be awake at this hour. We'll have a long day ahead of us tomorrow."

"Let me stay up just a little longer," Adrianna pleaded. I smiled.

"You can do whatever you want," I stated. "You are the Queen of the dragons, after all." Adrianna smiled and nodded.

I failed to notice a pair of dark blue eyes listening in on our conversation.

Yeah, sorry for the short chapter, but I had to rush this because it was so late. I AM SO SORRY! *anime tears* So anyways, about the rest of the series. The one with Durarara! will have yaoi in it, so here's to you yaoi fans! And that's mostly because it seems like Mikado doesn't fit well with any girl characters. And please check out my cousin's Durarara! fanfic, Crazy Yaoi Fangirls. Other than that, I have nothing else to say. I don't own anything except Haru and Hisako. Please R&R and no flames.
