You sat at a table in the guild all alone. Your chin rested on top of the table as your hands stretched across the table, your (h/c) hair covering some of your face and spreading across the table.

You were waiting- not for something, someone. People tried to ask you what and most of your conversations went like this,

"Hey, ___ what are ya doing?" They would ask you,

"Waiting." You would flatly reply,

"Is it a prince charming?" They would tease, already knowing it would be a person,

"No."

"A boyfriend?"

"No."

"A crush?"

"No."

"A friend?"

"...Yeah."

That's when the questions would start firing at you. They would try to figure out who but you never gave enough hints- all they would really know it that he doesn't come to the guild often since he's on missions a lot.

After a while they just stopped trying to figure it out and stopped talking about it- or you all together.

Though you always waited for him when he goes on missions because he helped you out a few years back. To you the answer was obvious. You were waiting for mystogan.

He's been gone the longest ever and it worried you. You liked him completely and your heart ached, already assuming the worst of his absence.

-----------A couple weeks later----------

You were in the guild, waiting still, everyone in the guild was happily talking and laughing as your eyes were focused on the guild doors.

After a couple moments you saw everyone drop to the floor- asleep. It didn't effect you for you had nullify magic so his sleep magic couldn't touch you at all.

You heart skipped a beat- you heart fluttered when you saw Mystogan walk into the door.

Before he could look in your direction you already had him in a tight hug, it took him a second before he returned the hug, just as tightly,

"Ah, Mystogan, your back." The master said on the counter, right by the sleeping Mirajane, "Ready for another mission?"

It didn't even take him time for Mystogan to think, "No, I'll hold off on it for a week or so." He knew that you missed him and that you waited for him to return, he couldn't go on a mission right when he gets back.

The master gave a simple nod and the guild member started to wake up. Quickly, Mystogan grasps your hand and walked out quickly before anyone could see him.

You both walk down the streets of Magnolia, you leaning on him while he wraps an arm around your shoulder to pull you closer to him.

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

Mystogan layed on the couch in his home with you laying on top of him. You being, well- your short self your head was on chest, feeling it gently rise and fall as he breathed.

There was a moment or to of silence before you spoke up,

"You worried me sick like that, leaving for so long." You muttered to him softly feeling the tears sting at the corners of your eyes.

Mystogan brought you up, closer to his face,

"I'm sorry, I won't be gone for such a long time ever again." He whispered to you, his hot breath on your neck making you shiver a bit as he brought you closer to his body,

"Promise me that." You muttered, you felt like someone was watching you from afar but you tried to shake off the feeling,

"Promise?" He said, a smirk appearing on his face (he took off his mask when he got home) making you feel a bit nervous.

He pulled you chin up and softly pressed his lips against yours. Surprised you didn't do anything for a moment but you soon put your arms around his neck and kissed him back. He put his arms around your waist and pulled you closer to deepen the kiss.

After a minute you both broke the kiss, in need of air. Once you gathered your breath Mystogan spoke up this time,

"Is that good enough of a promise?" He asked, a small smile on his face as you nodded pulling him into a tight embrace.

Though, you were oblivious of who was watching you.....
