Sounds Like A Melody

Chapter 14

Sting's pov

We joined the rest of the band in the audience.

"How did you think we did?" I asked Minerva. She stared at me for a minute.

"I think Natsu and Lucy will win." She said nonchalantly.

"What?!?! How could you say such a thing!!" I said, being overly dramatic. She glared at me.

"First off, you had to sing a love song. You and Rogue were at a disadvantage because Natsu and Lucy are married. Secondly, Natsu and Lucy have known each other for quite awhile. You and Rogue have barely known each other for two months." She said.

"She has a point Sting..." Rogue said quietly.

"I guess you have a point..." I said reluctantly. I decided to start heading back home. Tomorrow was the Instrumental improv solo, so me and Rogue didn't really have to go. I was excited for the day off. I really wanted to show Rogue around town. I decided to order some pizza, because I fucking love pizza!!! (Claire.... I'm looking at you. Sorry, inside joke... XD) It finally arrived about a half hour later. I quickly ate it all. (I have no idea why I'm putting this in. Writer block is da worst!!! XD)About an hour later, Rogue finally came home.

"Where have you been?" I asked.

"Minerva wanted to talk to me about the battle of the bands. Sorry it took so long..." He said. I waved my hand dismissively.

"It's fine. Tomorrow, since we don't have to perform, I was wondering if you wanted a tour of the town?" I asked.

Rogue smiled at me. "I'd like that." We got ready and climbed into bed.

Time skip

I woke up and noticed that Rogue was still asleep. This time though, his arms weren't wrapped around my torso. I was happy that he was still asleep. As far as I can tell, he hasn't been sleeping very well lately. I decided to get up and surprise Rogue by making him breakfast.

Maybe that wasn't the smartest idea...

Rogue's pov

I woke up to the smell of burning toast. I frowned. What's making that smell? I thought. I got up and walk to the kitchen.The kitchen was a mess. And Sting was standing in the middle of it. I blinked in surprise.

"Sting... What the fuck are you doing?" I asked, completely bewildered.

"I uh... Wanted to make... breakfast?" He said, though it came out more like a question. I shook my head in disbelief.

"You better start cleaning up." I said. Suddenly, he grabbed the front of my shirt. (Yes. He now magically has a shirt on. XD)

"Rogue!! Please help me!! I can't do this along!" He said dramatically.

I rolled my eyes. "You're a perfectly capable man. You're not a baby." I said in annoyance.

"Pwease?" He asked. I crossed my arms and glared. Then... He gave me the puppy dog eyes.

"Sting, I said no!!!" I practically yelled.

"You made this mess, you can clean it up." I said.

"I'll buy you chocolate." He said.

I helped him clean the kitchen.

Sting's pov

After we finished cleaning the kitchen, we got ready to head out into town.

I was excited to show him around. After all, this was my childhood town and Rogue is now a big part of my life.

I've come to the conclusion that I have a crush on Rogue. I mean, it's hard not to like him. He was cute and hot at the same time!!!!

I mean, come on! Have you seen his body? God... I could stare at it all day. No! Bad Sting, stop being such a pervert!!!

I shook my head lightly. This... Was going to be a problem.

Time skip

I decided to show Rogue me old High School first.

"Hurry up Rogue!!" I called out. We had decided to walk around town and unfortunately, Rogue can be a really slow walker when he's in a new environment.

"Sorry! I just keep getting distracted. Also, I want to see the town as we walk to your old High School." He said.

"I know, but come on!!!! I want to show you my school already!" I said happily.

Rogue let out a small laugh. "I bet you didn't like school as much as you do now." He said in amusement.

"Hehe... Yeah... You're right..." I said while scratching the back of my neck. Rogue gave a small chuckle.

"Thought so." He said. He was smiling happily. I smiled back at him. I was happy to see Rogue slowly coming out of his shell. It was nice seeing his personality. His real one, not the shy one that he had obviously developed over the years.

"Here we are!" I said excitedly. Rogue tilted his head and squinted at my High School. He then frowned.

"Is something wrong Rogue?" I asked.

"It's nothing... I just..." He shook his head. "Forget it. Let's get on with the tour, shall we?" He said. His smile looked forced now. I looked at him concerned. I wasn't quite ready to let it go, but I didn't want to ruin this day.

I smiled brightly at him. "Right! On with the tour!!" I said.

Time skip

We walked out of my school and we started heading down town. Nothing really happened. I talked with a few of my teachers and I gave Rogue a tour of the place. But during the whole tour, Rogue was acting strange. He even managed to guess one of my teacher's name. When I asked him how, he told me that he saw the name plat over the door. I would have believed him if he hadn't looked so nervous. I thought about asking him about it, but decided against it.

"So. What are we doing now?" Rogue asked.

"Well, I was thinking that we could go to a cafe and grab some lunch. Then I could give you a small tour of the town. Magnolia isn't very big, so we should be able to see most of the town. Or at least the important parts."

"Okay. That sounds like a plan." Rogue said. He looked much happier then in my school. I hope he's alright.

-Sorry for the really awkward ending, but I wanted to end it before it got to long. Anyways, I unfortunately have a bit of writers block at the moment. But I've got lots of ideas for Musical Love. So, I guess what I'm saying is that when I update my stories, this one won't have as many chapters. Also, I might change the name of this book and some of my others fanfics. For those of you who want the Stingue already, I SWEAR IT'S ALMOST HERE!!! PLEASE BE PATIENT WITH MEEEEE!!!! Yeah... I'm watching a crime investigation show right now, and it's freaking meh out!!!! Wow. That was so random... Yeah...
