COSMICA'S POV
'Leo' I sigh as I forge back to my sleeping quarters in the royal palace thinking about Leo

(Flashback)
"Father, I cannot comprehend why Leo has to be banished from the Celestial Spirit World" I say

"Cosmica, I know how much Leo means to you, but you must understand why I made this decission, he killed his key holder" father sighs sadly

"No, Leo would never do that!" I say in denial

My father looks sadly at me

"Then I'll go see him down on earth!" I dare

"Cosmica. I've thought of you making that judgement. Do you wish to make me make his fate a more drastic one?" father says seriously

"Of course not! Why would you even think that?!" I say angrily

"Cosmica, go back to your room or continue on with your duties, but this conversation is done"

"But father" I tried to change his mind, but before I could talk, he turns around and walk away
(End of Flashback)

I'm still thinking about that day, the day Leo was banished, and the day I argued with my father regarding the issue

'It's been 3 years and 6 months since Leo was banished from the Celestial Spirit World, in human time that is'

Here in the Celestial Spirit World, time moves faster compared to earthland, but for me, time is moving slower than molasses ever since Leo's disappearance

Father forbade me from mentioning him and communicating with him. He won't even let me check up on him from afar. I dare not go against his orders for the fear of him making things harder on Leo

'Oh Leo, my love. I hope you're okay... I wish I could see you again' I sigh

I turn to the corner and see Aries...and...Leo?

'Thinking about Leo so much is making me see things' I thought as I rub my eyes to make sure Leo was real, I even pinch myself to make sure I'm not dreaming... Big shocker... I'm not. This is real, Leo is real

I teleport behind one of the pillars closest to them, and do my best to hide in the shadows

I began eavesdropping on their conversation

'What are they talking about? If this turns out to be a confession, I am going to be very angry, even if Aries is my bestfriend'

"I-It's f-fine. So how are you Leo? I hope you're fully recovered now since the previous battle"

"Don't worry about me, I wasn't attacked much, thanks to Lucy's help"

'Lucy?! Who's Lucy?! Is she Leo's girlfriend?! But I've never heard of a constellation named Lucy befo- Wait a minute, Leo have been in the human world all this time, so could it be... That this Lucy girl is a hu-hu-HUMAN!?!...!!!...L-L-Leo i-i-is i-i-inlove wi-wi-with a-a-a HUMAN!?!... Is this a dream?... Yes, it's gotta be a dream...but... It could also turn out to be reality...!... No no no, it can't be...or...can it?...*Gasp* I already pinched myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming, this means this is reality!... Noooooo!!!... I can't accept this, no, I won't accept this. I need to solve this mystery and find out who this Lucy is... I must talk with father'

After having a mental breakdown. I teleport myself to where my father is, no longer interested in listening in to Leo and Aries' conversation

LOKE'S POV
I'm on my way to meet up with the Celestial Spirit King to ask about Cosmica's schedule, it's been a really long time since I last saw her. Ever since I became Lucy's spirit, I've been pretty busy, I hardly have free time. But I don't have anything to do today, so I decided to visit her. I accidentally bump with Aries in the halls of the palace

"Sorry about that, Aries"

"I-It's f-fine. So how are you Leo? Are you fully recovered now since the previous battle"

"Don't worry about me, I wasn't attacked much, thanks to Lucy's help"

"That's good to hear. S-so, where are you off to Leo?"

"I'm here to visit Cosmica, so I'm going to ask the king if she's busy or where she is. I really miss her. Today is the day I finally have time to see her"

"I visited her in her room a few days back before our battle, and she said she really missed you" Aries informs me

I blush at this revealation

"You haven't told her I'm back yet?" I ask

"U-unfortunately not, I-I was recovering you see " Aries says

'It makes sense, plus, Cosmica is very busy'

"I see, that's fine. I wanted to surprise her anyway" I say

"I bet she'll be really happy" Aries smiles

"I sure do hope so. Anyway, what about you Aries, what are you up to? Have you fully recovered?" I ask

"Not yet. I was summoned by the king and he discussed something with me. I'm just on my way back to my room"

"Oh I see. I better go see the king while he's still here. See you later Aries"

"y-yeah s-sure, goodbye Leo" Aries says as she waves at me and I wave back

I continue to walk towards where the Celestial Spirit King is
