Kumiko's P. O. V:

I was just finishing washing up the dishes from dinner that night, when I feel a pair of arms wrap around my waist, and a pair of lips press to the shadow dragon mate mark on the left side of my neck, making my lips twitch up into a smile.

"Mm, Roguey," I murmur, tilting my head a bit for him. I feel the kiss deepen a bit before he pulls back just enough for me to turn around in his arms, facing him, resting my hands on his firm chest.

It's been 1 year since the war with Tartaros and Fairy Tail disbanded. After I'd joined Sabertooth, Rogue had invited me to live with him. Since there was no spare room, we'd slept in his bedroom. Rogue had been on a job today while I'd had the day off. He's wearing a long sleeved blue shirt and blue pants with black boots, a brown belt around his waist. I'm wearing a simple purple tank top with matching coloured shorts, my hair stopping just a little past my waist, almost at my tailbone.

"That dinner was delicious, Kumi-chan," He tells me.

Giving the ravenette a closed eye smile, I reply, "I'm glad you enjoyed it."

"I've been meaning to ask you " Rogue begins seriously, "about going on a job with me and M' Lady tomorrow morning."

I ask, "What kind of job?"

"A job to wipe out this Zeref worshipping cult called Avatar. They're in a town called Malba."

I fall silent at this, feeling uneasy. I remember what Future Rogue told me during the Grand Magic Games.

"1 year after the X791 Grand Magic Games, you died."

I stare at him with wide stunned eyes. "H-How did I die?" I almost too afraid to ask.

"You were killed by your best friend, after he killed Frosch," Rogue answers,

"Wh-Who kills us...?" I ask in a quiet tone.

"Your best friend, Gray Fullbuster."

I avert my eyes as those words echo in my mind. I hadn't allowed myself to forget that warning, and I had cherished the days Rogue and I had spent together.
