Pastel meringue wipes his tears and stuffy nose with his sleeve and gets up still holding the book. He walks to the same entrance of Dragon city then rings Sour belt to come pick him up.
Whilst waiting he flicks through another page with also interests him,the page was filled with knowledge of magic. Pastel meringue loses track of time and not realising that Royal margarine is standing there.
"What are you reading there?"
Pastel meringue flinches due to not noticing Royal margarine had walked over to him.
"Are you going back now?" Margarine asks with an upset frown.
"I've been here for almost two weeks,my customers haven't heard from me in awhile"
"I understand" Royal margarine spoke and knew that he had to accept Pastel meringue's decision. "Are you going to come back soon?"
"Not until next year unless Currant cream and Chocolate Bon Bon go with sour belt,I won't be seeing you again"
"I have to make him stay somehow but trying right now will only make him suspicious of me,looks like I'll have to let him leave for now"
Sour belt arrives and opens the car door to let Pastel meringue in.
"Thank you for taking care of him"
Royal margarine chuckles. "No problem at all" He turns to Pastel meringue and blows him a kiss.
He crosses his arms and blushes a little. Margarine chuckles while pulling on His cheek.
"Oh i almost forgot to give you this,you left it at my place" He hands Pastel the bunny plushie that Cinnamon delivered to him.
"Thank you Royal margarine" Pastel meringue smiles.
"No problem dear" Royal margarine smiles back feeling satisfied.
"All right,let's go now" Sour belt says as she jumps into the car and turns the engine on. The car drives off and soon turns into silence.
Now that Royal margarine knows that Pitaya dragon doesn't love him anymore,he wonders what he needs to do to get over them. He wonders around in his house,thinking of a solution to deal with his grief of losing his one and only lover.
He notices the basement,immediately thinking of kidnapping someone but knew it was a sick idea,all that Royal margarine wanted was just someone that cares for him and not just see him as a handsome dragon rider. Margarine remembers that he got rejected throughout the years which would be a reason for making someone love him.
Buttercream comes in and hugs him as he starts to open up ideas to her.
"Do you think Pastel meringue should stay with us forever?"
The female wyvern growls happily at the idea and notices a chair.
"I'll be using that chair to sit on and I can place a mattress,blanket and pillow on it. I can turns this place into a little home for him"
Royal margarine starts to gather everything together and transform the basement into a new beautiful room.
"It's all set now I just need to wait for Pastel meringue to return,I can't wait to snuggle and cuddle up with him...wait,we still haven't done the Romantic sugar and Steam punk collab yet,guess I'll have to get that out of the way first" Royal margarine sounded dumbfounded and stupid.
He gathers some material and some of Pastel meringue's material and starts to make some of the outfit.

Pastel meringue arrives back at his house with Sour belt and opens the door to see Current cream doing a breakdance on the floor again.
"Not again!" Pastel meringue says with annoyance.
"Let Pastel meringue in" Sour belt spoke.
Currant cream stops dancing and lets them both in. Meringue heads up to his room as Currant cream continues her break dancing along with Sour belt joining in.
He FaceTimes Royal margarine and sees him working on an outfit.
"You're still planning to do that collab we were supposed to do ages ago?"
"I had nothing else to do and you were the one that announced it even though I didn't thought about doing fashion but it is good to learn something new in your life" Royal margarine says while stitching up a part of a sleeve.
"I'll come back next week and help you with the other part and we can both add the accessories"
"Great idea also are you going to stay permanently once you come back?"
"Yes because I'm going to restart Romantic sugar there"
"That's wonderful!"
"I'll be off now so I'll see you next week"
Royal margarine smiles. "I'll see you very soon"
Pastel meringue ends the call and immediately starts to pack his things and then puts on his pyjamas.After he finishes packing,he jumps into bed and waits for Currant cream to be asleep so he could go to the Lotus paradise by himself and get some information about the Blue wishing dragon.

Soon after Currant cream was asleep,Pastel meringue stepped out of bed and climbed down the window. He hopped into his car and drove straight to the beach to get a boat to the Lotus paradise.
Pastel meringue eventually finds a free boat and releases it into the ocean. Pastel notices that the waves were still and silent which was making it easier to paddle.
He sits down and reads the book about magic that he found at the Dragon's valley until a voice interrupts him. "What is a young man like yourself doing out here alone?" A voice spoke out to him.
He notices the voice and turns to the figure. The female figure had light purplish hair and dark magenta eyes with opal pupils,she also posses an Opal on the top of her clothing and had fin type eyes and small wings,she looked nothing like a mermaid but perhaps a siren.
"May I ask who you are?" Pastel meringue asked calmly.
"I am Mystic Opal,I'm one of the gem mermaid from tear crown. I was travelling around from water to water until I saw you"
"I'm heading to the Lotus paradise...to collect information about the Blue dragon"
"Why are you collecting information about a dangerous creature?"
"It's for the Golden dragon,they want me to go there and collect information about them"
"Do you not mind if I can come with you?"
"I don't mind at all"
"Thank you kind gentleman"
"I'm Pastel meringue,owner and fashion designer of Romantic sugar"
"Lovely to meet you kind gentleman"
"It's so wonderful to meet you as well Mystic Opal"
Mystic Opal and Pastel meringue talked for almost 2 hours and by the time they stopped talking,the boat had reached the destination.
Pastel meringue gets off and holds out his hand for Mystic Opal,she takes his hand and both of them enter the paradise.
"Where do we need to go?" Mystic Opal questioned.
"We need to find a book about the blue dragon,let's split up and search for a library or a book shelf"
Both of them walk in opposite directions and found nothing so far. Mystic Opal continued her walk but only found a dead end. Pastel meringue also stumbles into a dead end. Once he turns his head,the Blue dragon themself had cornered him.
Lotus dragon pulls out their mandolin then also starts to play each string from it,slowly sucking the life out of Meringue.
"Stupid human boy,I heard that you want information about me...it's better if you're going to get it once your fully weak" Lotus played another string which was the last before Pastel meringue became weak.

Mystic Opal wondered around the endless halls until she saw a dark room with loads of books. She heads inside and starts throwing everything single book onto the floor along with using his fog powers to cover the place once all the books were on the ground. Mystic dives into the pile of books,reading some pages of random volumes.
As she was in the middle of reading a page about luxury Pastel meringue's screams could be heard. She rushed up the stairs as quickly as possible,luckily he was alive but very weak. Mystic Opal picks him up and carries him to the entrance, once there she lays him down,turns her head and behold Hydrangea was standing there was the book about dragons.
"May I borrow that book please?" Mystic Opal asked politely.
"No you may not,I'll have to alert the Blue dragon about your presence"
Opal uses her powers to make it rain heavily. She subtracts the object out of Hydrangea's hands,puts Pastel meringue on her shoulder and flees away.

Opal reaches to a cave then sets the two books and Pastel meringue down,He was still weak so Mystic Opal knew that she couldn't just leave him. Her gentle magenta eyes scanned across the deep dark ocean,waiting for Pastel meringue to regain his energy.
She saw a bookmark on one of the pages and decided to flip it open. Mystic then noticed it was about Dark moon magic,she tries to shake Pastel but no avail due to him being too weak to stand or even get up. His skin was even more pale as a ghost at this point,Mystic Opal had to take him back and get help.
They both arrive at Pastel meringue's house,sneak back through the window into his room then Go onto the bed.
"Mystic Opal..?"
"Yes kind gentleman?"
"Are you...sure you don't want to leave me alone?" Pastel meringue spoke in a tired and weak voice.
"I'll be staying with you until you have fully recovered"
Mystic Opal kisses Pastel meringue on his forehead and snuggles into him while he sleeps.
"Goodnight kind gentleman"
Mystic kisses him on the lips and strokes his hair,She wipes the drool off Meringue's mouth then nuzzles him into her chest.
