***Freed's p.o.v***
"Oh my gosh..." Evergreen mutters in shock.
"Shit. She went through all that?" Bickslow questions in concern.
I glanced down at Rachel as she stirred against me at the noise before settling back down again. I glanced back at Evergreen and Bickslow. I had just told them everything that happened and everything Rachel told me.
"Yes, and now I'm going to need you two to tell the guild," I responded.
"Are you sure that's a good idea man?" Bickslow questions.
"Yes, she wanted the guild to know. Especially with the dark guilds after her again. She wants them to know what there up against. Can you do that?" I asked them.
"Sure, we can Freed, but is it really a good idea to tell them when Rachel isn't there?" Evergreen questions.
"It was hard enough for her to say it once. She doesn't need to hear it again," I responded.
"Alright, we'll handle it baby," Bickslow confirms.
"You really are good for her Freed," Evergreen mutters as the two hang up.
***Timeskip*** ***Rachel's p.o.v***
My eyes slowly opened to see red and green. I instantly recognized it as Freed, feeling both of his arms wrapped tightly around me. I leaned against Freed thinking over what happened last night.
'He broke me out of my panic attack. No one has ever done that before. I told him everything and he accepted me without even batting an eye. He is still with me too. He never left my side. He comforted me all night,' I thought blushing.
'His embrace... so warm and comforting. I feel... safe, in his arms. Like nothing can ever hurt me when I'm in his arms. I guess... I really do love him,' I thought, blushing a smile.
'I guess everyone was right,' I thought with a smile.
Freed's grip tightened around me as he mutters, "Good Morning."
"Good morning," I muttered back.
"How are you feeling?" He asks me.
"Much better. Thank you Freed, ... for last night. Thank you," I say, thanking him.
"Your welcome. I'll be here whenever you need it." Freed responds.
I nodded, staying silent as we both silently enjoyed each other's company.
"We should probably get up," I said awkwardly.
Freed nods as we get up, pack up and head back to the Guild.
***Timeskip***
As we headed back to the Guild, Freed told me that he told Evergreen and Bickslow about my past and that they told the guild. I nodded in understanding. As we approached, I froze in front of the guild doors. I stared at the doors afraid of the guild's reaction. I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned to face Freed. Freed gave me a small smile of reassurance before I took a deep breath and opened the guild doors.
The guild turns to see who entered and goes silent at the sight of us. I looked down in shame at the silence from the guild.
"Hey Rachel! Your back!"
