It was still dark, the time was only five in the morning. A white haired women named Mirajane was opening the doors for a new day. She was a Barmaid in a guild called Fairy Tail, but one day something wierd happened. The guild doors were opened and inside the bar, was sitting no else but Freed Justine. The Barmaid thought she would get a heart attack, when the she-demon saw the green haired man in the building, by a table, near the front door, she knew someone would kill him one day for something like that.
-What the...
-I need your help Mira.
That was everything she needed to know to explain the wierd meeting. Once, when the raijinshū was battling against the guild, she left Freed alive and promised him help when ever he will need it. And now was the time, but still she did'nt know why he broke into the guild.
-How did you get in here?
-I was supposed to meet you near your house, but it was a bit late and you forgot to close the main hall door.
-Ooh! Then i'm so sorry Freed! I knew you could never do such a thing like a burglary. So what do you need help with?

That was the hardest part for Freed. He needed to show the girl what happened to him. The boy never felt that embarrassed before, but it was the only way. He carefully turned around his seat to face Mirajane, this was the moment she saw the truth.
-Freed...
-I know it does'nt look good.. b..but I realy do'nt know what i...is happening to me. P...p...please could you help me? Wendy's on a mission whith team Natsu, and Porlyusica is in Crokus and...
-Freed, please stop. Could you tell me where do you live?
-It's Bloom-Hill street 13. A small apartment in the west of Magnolia.
-I'll get some medicine and we'll head there straight away. Your sick Freed, and it's nothing wrong. I'll send Macarov a letter that I'm taking two weeks off work, and tell my siblings later. You have ChickenPock's. It normally shows when your like 3-8 years old, you had to catch it while you've been on a mission with the God tribe legion.
-O...okey...
-We'll go then. Could you lead the way?
-Sure...
Time skip:At Freed's house
-We're here...
Mirajane was lead to a small apartment full with books, it kinda looked like Levi's but her books were'nt in the rune language. The main hall was a lot like an old, vintage bookstore. It was'nt dirty, not at all, but the walls were brown with some wierd text posters written with runes. There was a big heavy cupboard stacked up with books and some figures on the top shelf. Mira never knew the man was a collectioner of anything, but that did fit him a lot as she thought, he was this type of a person. Her thinking was stoped by a quiet cough and a sneeze. The demon girl saw how a shiver went through the smaller mans body, he was trembling like cold.
-Are you okey Freed?
It was'nt a real question, after all she knew the answer.
-Yeah, just a bit cold.
-Let's take you bed.Lead me to your room then.
They walked just about a few seconds before she saw it. It had a big window with a wide windowsill, what was helpfull. She was glad she did'nt nead to stand all the time being there. Mirajane would find the kitchen and bathroom later, so now she focused on her patient. After him getting changed into something more comfortable, he layed in his bed as he was told. Mirajane had to go to the pharmacy to get some medicine, so she quickly asked him what hurt, was he cold or hot at the moment, did he know how high his temperature was and about how itchy the rash was. She needed to get something for good sleep, for his headache, for his stomachache and for his body temperature fluctuations. While she was there she also got a thermometer and some cream for his irritated skin. When she was back he was hard asleep talking something to himself. Using the occasion she gently put the thermometer in his mouth and red out.
-39.8°C, this is bad..
While the boy was asleep she put on the cream on his skin and dotted the medicine for his rash. He started stirring in his sleep, she imidiantly knew he was having a nightmare. He said the word ''no'' quite a few times still moving in his dream. Freed's heart rate sped up, he could'nt breath. She slapped him to wake up a few times and then he shot up taking a big breath. Mira looked in his eyes still not so sure about him being alive, after a moment she bent down and hugged him tightly.
-Do'nt ever dare to scare me like that again or I'll kill you myself.
She spread an evil grin while saying that but she stopped while seeing Freed cry. His lungs were hurting and burning like hell, he could'nt move much because of the sensation in his organism. When some time passed he felt a sudden attack of neusea, he needed to vomit but could'nt get up. Mira seeing what was going on runned to the kitchen just in time to be back with the bowl before all his food came out. The girl sat next to him doing some relaxing circles on his back untill he fell asleep. Scared to leave him alone again she layed next to him and slept untill the next day came.
The next day
Evergreen was realy curious about Freed not comming to the guild so she dragged Bixlow with her and went to Freed's apartment. The door's were closed so she used Bixlow's ''baby's'' as stairs and went up to look through his bedrooms window. At first she was suprised by seeing Mirajane and Freed in bed together, but after a while she spotted the bowl full with puke and a termometer on his table so she figured out he was sick and the girl was helping. Still she could'nt restrain herself taking a picture of them both to show it later to Bixlow, Laxus and to make a little nasty suprise for Freed when he'll feel better and come to the guild. It was her role to be the evil, nasty, little devil again, but this time she was proud of it. Getting down fron his window she called to Bixlow.
-Oi! Bixlow look what I found.
She shoved him the picture in his face, but he was'nt angry at that. He went laying flat on the ground, laughthing histerically and hitting his hands on the floor just as a 3 year old wich heared a funny joke.
-Ever, what do you think about showing it to the whole guild?
-That would be an inflection, ya know...it would be to much for him. I still like the idea, but not this time, ok?
-Yea, I think you may be right. Now think about some cute little FreedxMira baby's. Would'nt they be a cute couple?
-Just as you with Lissanna.
Bixlow went red as a tomato. He was at least quiet for the rest of their journey back to the guild.
At Freed's apartment
Freed started waking up, he was all achy and he had a bad headache comming up. He did'nt see Mira at first, but when he spotted something stirring next to him, he knew she'll kill him. When she was sleeping her beutifull, scarlet dress went up a little, but just enouth to show the world her pinky and just about a centimeter of her pink, silky bra.
-I'm dead...
He said it out loud. Then he started to think about how cute she looks asleep, after a while he found himself staring at her belly and some certian lower parts. His headache came back, but whith some more strength, he felt awfull again. He decided to lay down before she wakes up, it was a much better and safer option cause if the she demon girl see he's asleep she would think he did'nt see anything. But he was pretty much unlucky, cause he started blushing badly and she imidiently saw it.
-...
She mumbled it quietly but he still could hear her. As he thought about it it was his first time hearing her swear. For his sake, he went into a coughing fit and now Mira knew for sure he is'nt asleep and that he saw her like that. She quickly got up, fixed her dress, took a large breath and started talking.
-I'm realy sorry Freed, I do'nt even know when I've fallen asleep on you. I was sure I just was sitting next to you and....and...
-Nothing happend! I realy liked seeing you like that....
The last part of his sentence was that quiet he was sure, she gladly did'nt hear it. He started blushing and then felt a cold hand on his forehead, the girl was cheking his tempreture.
-It went up a bit, I think. We'll check it with a termometer, lift your tongue and say aaa....
Freed did as he was told and waited keeping the cold object under his tongue. After about five minutes the girl took it out and read the temperature.
-40.6°C. It's getting worse, do you have any new symptoms?
-I do'nt think so... Aaaaa... aaaaaaaaaaaaa... aaachooo...
-Here, have a tissue.
-Thanks. Ughh...
Freed blowed his nose while Mirajane went to get a wet towel for his burning fever. The girl found the sink with ease and a towel on the bottom shelf, she saw a blanket on one of the kitchen stools and took it for Freed in the matter of him being cold. When she walked back into his room she saw him shivering badly, even under two layers of covers. He looked a lot worse than the day before, he was pale and the rush went on his arms and hands now too. His skin was slightly peeling of in the places the rash was bad. He had purple bags under his eyes and he was trembling from the cold he felt. She went closer to him and covered him with the blanket she brought and put the wet towel on his head. After about 20 minutes seeing him still shivering, she got up from her place on the windowsill, layed on the bed next to him and hugged him tightly.
-Thank you...your warm...
After saying that Freed earned a big smile from Mira. His heart warmed up a bit as he snuggled to her chest and then fell asleep.
Three days later
Mira heard a yawn next to her.
-Good morning sleepy head. It's 12:00 in the afternoon already. Feeling better?
-Yes, I'm not cold or anything.
-Your temperature is normal now, and the rash nearly disapeard. I think after two days we can head to the guild if you want. I'll bring you some water if you wait here.
-I do'nt want you to leave yet....
The boy made some puppy eyes and after about 5 minutes it hit him what he said.
-I...III...I'm s...s..sorry... I...II did'nt mean to say it, I think it's just because of the sickness and...
-But Freed, I know you ment it real, your nearly not sick. And I kinda want to stay too. It's just that, I took a lot off work so you were with me nearly a week, but normally I go to work around 5:00 am and come back home around 00:00, even at weekends. We would'nt see each other much exept for the guild. I would love to be with you, but I know we would get sick of seeing each other so little. You deserve a better person than me, so sorry.
After saying that she left the room and started making breakfast. Eggs with bacon and bread. They ate their food in silence, as the day passed by they were'nt talking much to each other. It was about 20:00 pm when they said their goid nights and went to sleep. Freed in bed and Mira on the windowsill.
Two days later
Freed went to the guild leaving Mirajane sleeping near the window the same as two days ago. They still were'nt talking much to each other but it did'nt bother him much. When he reached the guild doors, Evergreen quickly opened them and hugged him. Bixlow was holding a picture the back side to Freed while Laxus was busy with making Natsu uncontious. He smiled seeing them happy for his return. And he was also curious for the picture Bixlow was holding. It was like Ever was reading his mind, cause she snached the photo from the older boy and gave it to him. After flipping it to the other side, Freed went all red from his nose to the top of his ears. What the *, he thought.
-W...w...where d..do y...y...you ha...ave it f...from!?
-Me and Bix went to see why were'nt you at the guild, but when we saw the doors were locked Bixlow made me some stairs to your window from his dolls. So I saw you sleeping whith Mira and could'nt stop my self from doing a picture of you two. You look like a realy cute couple! And while you were at home I found out that Bixlow likes Lissanna.
-Sh..shut up Ever! Do'nt listen to her Freed, she's lying!
-Of course I am not! Or if I'm, then why are you blushing? I knew it! You L I K E her Bix. And by the way, were is Mirajane? I was sure you'll come to the guild together.
-She's sleeping on my windowsill right now. I did'nt want to wake her up, she was'nt sleeping much lately. Mira will come here sooner or later. And now, give me that photo!
-Sure, here you go.
-Thanks!
After Freed goes to help Laxus get rid of Natsu, Evergreen wispers to Bixlow.
-And do'nt you dare tell him about the copy we have Bix.
-Sure. I'll love to have something to blackmail him at home, so the photo is secure with me.
-I do'nt like the blackmail thingy, but okey. I'll go help Laxus get rid of Freed for a while now. Maybe he helped our god to ged rid of Natsu, but he himself is the same anoying sometimes.
While Ever went to free Laxus, the rest of the guild joined them thinking it was a kind of fight, so she ended up dragging Elfman out of the guild and never comming back that day. Meanwhile Bixlow and Lissanna went to the bar to get some drinks cause it does'nt be often because of Mira not letting her younger sister drink much. Freed was alone again and tried to make a conversation with Lucy and Levy, but the two girls disappeared with a little help of Natsu and Gajeel. So he sat by the raijinshū's table and started to think why Mira did'nt come to the guild by now. So Freed Justine went out of the guild through the back doors to sneak out from Laxus and Bixlow and started his journey to his apartment. When the boy went inside he heard a loud Aachoo, and knew something odd happened. He went to his room and smiled slightly seeing a shivering Mira on the windowsill. She cought a cold because of his stubborness and not telling her there was a couch in his dining room. And thinking of it, all this mess was made because he did'nt want her leaving his room for the night.

He aproached her slowly, gently picked her up, and tucked her in his bed.
-It's my turn to take care of you I think, my princess.
-I do'nt want to be a burden...
Said Mira with a stuffed nose. Freed smiled again, and answered her calmly.
-I'm not bringing you home, and you can't do it your self. So let me take my revenge and be a good girl. I'll be right back.
Freed left the room took a warm towel and came back to a now sleeping Mira.
''She realy is cute'' he thought.
The End
