"..Long time no see, huh?"

------------------------------

"(Y-Y/N).." The light dragon slayer bit his lip in happiness and disbelief.

"It's been a long seven or eight years, huh?" You say, trying you best not to cry and run into their arms.

Rogue is the first to run. He envelops you in his arms, and sighs contentedly. "Too long. These seven years have been too long, (Y/N)."

You pull away, looking at Sting who's standing there with a few tears that had already fallen. You run into his arms, and he whirls you around. You bury your face in his chest, letting the tears fall free. He lifts you chip up, and what he does next...

He crashes his lips onto yours. Seconds later, you realize what he did.

You got a kiss from Sting Eucliffe.

Then he seems to realize what he did, and jumps away, his face slowly turning redder and redder.  You turned just as red and look around, trying not to faint.

Every. Face. In Fairy Tail. Was staring. At. YOU. Except Erza.. she marched over to Sting and started screaming.

It goes a bit like this:

"WHY THE HELL DID YOU KISS MY LITTLE SISTER?"

"YOU TWO ARE RELATED?"

"I THINK OF HER AS MY SISTER, NOW WHY THE HELL DID YOU TWO MAKE LIP CONTACT?"

"I- I COULDN'T COMPREHEND- SHE- I HAVEN'T SEEN HER FOR- WE WERE NEVER-"

"WHAT IS IT, EUCLIFFE? SPIT IT OUT OR YOU'LL BE SAYING GOODBYE TO YOUR LIMBS!"

"I LIKED (Y/N) WHEN WE WERE KIDS, AND SEEING HER AGAIN TRIGGERED SOMETHING IN MY MIND AND I COULDN'T HELP MYSELF, I MEAN, SHE LOOKED SO PRETTY, AND HER OUTFIT, AND SMILE, AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HER BOO-"

Silence.

If it was possible, Sting turned redder and practically melted at the great Titania's death glare.

"Y-you know I-I'm right h-here.. " I murmured.

The entire guild: So silent, you could hear the insects outside.

"Fro is happy to see you again, (Y/N)-San!" Frosch smiles like nothing just happened.

The entire guild sweat drops at this and is brought back to reality.

'THAT'S IT.' You think. You run outside and behind a sakura tree and start breaking down, crying.

"Sorry.." You turned around to see the tear streaked face of Sting Eucliffe.

"You've been crying too?" You sniffle.

He sits down beside you and nods. "About.. earlier.."

"I like you, too." You blurt. "I don't blame you, I.. I leaned in as you did."

There's a moment of comforting silence before Sting speaks up.

"So, how've you been all these years?"

"Living like a homeless bum, running away from orphanages.."

"I mean.. your.. y'know.."

"Leaving you, Rogue, and the exeeds was the worst decision I've ever made."

"Wait," Sting reaches into an inside vest pocket, and pulls out a folded paper. He unfolds it and hands it to you.

'Dear Sting,

    I'm leaving. The matter is personal, but just know it isn't out of any hatred. I'm searching for something very important, and I hope one day we can meet again. Sting Eucliffe, never, ever  think that I abandoned you. You, Rogue, Lector and Frosch are the only friends I have that understand me. I love you guys, but I can't stay with you in the orphanage forever. I really, truly want you to be happy, and find a family or join a guild, but I can't be there. I'd love to, but.. Something out there is calling me, and I can't ignore it.

Remember me, because I'll always remember you.

~(Y/N) (L/N) '                                 

"You.. you kept this?" You say through tears.

He chuckles. "Rogue framed his."

"Really?" You laugh gently. "And why is it that you carry this around with you?"

"Because every morning, every night, and whenever I feel lost, I do this." He places a soft kiss right on top of your signature.

"Well, now that I'm here, you can do this.." You lean in, slowly, gently, quietly--

"HEY!" Natsu yells. He grins stupidly, completely unaware of the moment he just ruined. "I'm glad I found you guys, Rogue and Erza were worried. Then again, Erza was yearning to strangle Sting, and then worrying about (Y/N).. But Rogue was just plain worried."

"Thank you for finding us, Natsu-San.." Sting says through gritted teeth. He glares at the pink haired boy as he helps you up. "We should get going, Rogue and I were going to finish a job when I picked up your scent.. and we came running.."

"And you forgot about the job," You finish. "You go do that, we can catch up later."

"Actually, I was thinking the other way around.." He smirks. (I feel like every Sting x Reader is like.. Sting = Smirk)

You return the smirk, thinking of something. (NO, THEY AIN'T GONNA GET IN BED, CUZ I DON'T KNOW HOW TO WRITE LEMONS.) 'Hey Natsu, do you think of me as a little sister, you know, like you feel the need to be overprotective?"

Sting lets out a small gasp and reads your mind.

"Well, I haven't known you for long, but yeah, kind of."

"Well then Natsu-San, I want to ask your permission to date (Y/N).."

"NO." He replies immediately. "I WILL NOT HAV-"

Soon enough your lips are on Sting's and you part minutes later with a thin string of saliva connecting you.

Natsu stands there, his mouth wide open, his face saying, 'WHAT. THE. F*CK. JUST. HAPPENED.'

"YOU KNOW WHAT, I GIVE UP! YOU CAN HAVE HER, EUCLIFFE, I DON'T GIVE A DAMN ANYMORE!" He walks away, hands in surrender, as you and Sting sit back down. It was nearly sunset now, and you lay on his lap, not caring who sees you. You talk to each other, catching up.

"After I left, I realized I had a crush on you, and that made everything so much worse." You say, blushing a bit. "I had too many visions, and once, I had a bunch in a row.. visions, flashbacks, dreams, nightmares.. It went on like that for so long.. I was twelve at the time, and I've lived in the streets ever since."

"And.. how old are you now?"

"Seventeen, and my eighteenth birthday is-"

"June third. Only a few weeks from now." (that's not my b-day irl tho)

You cuddle up on his lap, bringing yourself closer to his chest. The next words you utter.. Those words changed you and Sting's lives.

"I love you."

You go to get up to apologize, but before you can, Sting mutters something as he drifts off to sleep.

"I love you too, (Y/N).."

A/N - Sorry if my grammar sucks because
A) English is my second language
B) I wrote it in past tense, then I tried to fix it to present
So... DATS IT BAI (I have to go before someone catches me writing this.. -.-')
