Your POV
I yawned, waking up to find Rogue sitting up beside me. He must've fell asleep against my beds backboard. His arms were crossed, hair in a ponytail, and I smiled.

'So cute!'

"Rogue?" I shook his arm, but he wouldn't bulge. I never thought he'd be a deep sleeper. I laughed to myself. A thought hit me.

'R-Rogue is in my room! Sleeping! If someone comes in, they'll get the wrong idea!' I suddenly had the urge to wake him up quick. I climbed over him to get off of my bed and threw a jacket on over my tank top. I slapped him as hard as I could, even though I didn't want to. No worries, I snapped a picture right before!

His eyes shot open as he saw me holding my hand up, indicating that I was the one who slapped him.

"What the hell, (Y/N)?!" He jumped up in front of me, rubbing his cheek.

"Shhh! I should be saying the same thing! Why the hell were you sleeping in my room?!" I whisper yelled, as he got the idea of why I wanted him to be quiet.

"Well... I was up late last night and when I walked past, I heard you shuffling. I just came to check on you, that's all..." He flustered a little and I did too.

"O-oh... Sorry about that..." I apologized for slapping him and fiddled with my thumbs.

"It's alright." He brushed his fingers through my bed hair and laughed. "You should get a brush, (Y/N)-san." I sweatdropped.

"Alright, alright, just get outta here!" I pushed him to the door.

I went to the bathroom to comb my hair. I let it stay down.

I put on joggers as well as some sneakers. Tucking my tank top into my pants, leaving my (f/c) jacket on, unzipped. I walked out to smell the sweet aroma of bacon.

"Mm..." I walked into the kitchen.

"Wow, Sting! I didn't know you could cook." I smiled at the typical breakfast items he was sitting on the table.

"Yeah." He smiled. I sat down.

The table looked like so:
       Rogue  Minerva  Orga   
Me
       Sting    Yukino   Rufus

I grabbed every type of food and put it on my plate. It smelled so good. Sting sweatdropped at my behavior, Rogue laughing sheepishly.

"Rogue, could you pass me the butter?" Minerva leaned over to him, smiling one of those trying-to-be-cute-and-attractive smiles.

He turned a light red, as she grabbed his arm.

"S-sure." He slid the butter and she thanked him.

"Mm..." I pouted, irritated at what just happened.

"Minerva, your acting a little different. Are you okay?" Yukino asked worried.

"Fine." She glared, Yukino sinking down in her seat.

"O-oh, okay..."

"Strange... So, any jobs come up lately?" I asked.

"Nope, but Master Jiemma called a meeting of the guild." Sting answered.

"Wonder what for." Rogue thought.

After eating, all guild members, including myself, met in the Guild Hall.

"Hm. This year- I'd like to skip the Grand Magic Games." The members gasped.

I have to admit, in the few months I've known Jiemma, this definitely didn't sound right.

"Sir, may I ask why?" I asked as politely as I could, knowing his quick temper.

He growled. "I guess... I'd like to hold my own 'Games'." My eyes blinked wide.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

He smirked. "It'll be the same as the GMG's, but Sabertooth exclusive, we're a guild with few because of our small community of strong members, so I've invited Fairy Tail to join us. I want to see who the strongest member of Sabertooth is... And to show Fairy Tail whose boss."

"I heard they were a strong guild..."

"Shut up!" I shuttered at Jiemma's powerful voice.

"S-sorry."

"I will discuss the conditions when Fairy Tails invited members arrive. There will be a total of 20 participants. I'll also announce the participants when Fairy Tail comes. Until then, dismissed."
・・・
We went out to the guilds pool.

"Which members do you think he's invited?" I asked Sting and Rogue.

"Natsu-san for sure!" Sting sounded positive.

"I bet Gajeel-san will come too." Rogue said.

"Damn, could you guys name anyone other than your superiors?!"

"Natsu-san is not my superior!" Sting hollered back.

"Neither is Gajeel." Rogue spoke plainly.

"Whatever you say... I hope Erza comes. I heard she was a great swordsman. And Juvia." I thought of all the magazines of Sorcerer Weekly they were in.

"Hm. He probably invited the strongest. Jiemma likes to win- however he likes it to be challenging too." Yukino came up behind.

"Heh, then I doubt that damn Celestial Mage will be coming!" I laughed.

"I thought she'd be a good challenge..." Yukino frowned.

"Hm, maybe for you,"

"And just what's that supposed to mean?!"

"Ladies, keep calm, would you?" Minerva walked up behind smirking.

"Minerva-san." I raised an eyebrow.

"I came to relax before the SaberTail Games." She smiled like a snake.

"SaberTail?" Everyone questioned.

"Oh, that's the name me and daddy gave it." She smirked and all of our eyebrows twitched in irritation.

"It'll be dark soon, eh? Better get some sleep before the Games tomorrow." I sat at the poolside, beside Rogue.

"Yeah, say... We've never actually seen your Dragon Slayer powers in action. Nor have you mentioned anything about your past or dragon." After Rogue mentioned it, I looked down at the pool's reflection of the sky.

"Don't worry, I plan on using them in the Games. And my past? Well, there was a boy I made a promise to, long ago. He was so sweet... I was 7. If I don't recall, our dragons had been great friends with each other. So I know he's a Dragon Slayer. But, I never know if I'll find him!" I looked at him, with a real but painful smile.

'You remembered...' Rogue's expression softened.

"Interesting. Thanks for sharing that with me, I'm sure it was personal. Well, I'm gonna go to bed, you should too." He stood up, walking back into the guild.

'I still wonder... If it could've been him...'
