『Fairy Tail』, the library…
Rows upon rows of bookshelves, comparable in scale to buildings, were neatly arranged in the vast space.
Books, both old and new, were either neatly placed on the shelves or scattered haphazardly on the floor.
The scent of books permeated the air.
A tranquil atmosphere ebbed and flowed within the space.
In such an environment, even Mira, with her typically boisterous personality, couldn't help but soften her steps, tiptoeing into the library. Her predatory gaze swept across the space, filled with nothing but books, before finally settling on a table in the center of all the bookshelves.
There, the person Mira sought was sprawled on the table, surrounded by piles of books. Some were still closed, while others were open, placed in front of the boy, but he hadn't even glanced at a single word.
Because he had his eyes tightly shut, appearing to be fast asleep.
Seeing this, Mira frowned and snorted softly.
"And he said he was planning to work hard all night, but in the end, he still got tired and fell asleep, huh?"
Unaware that Noah had learned a lot about how he was different from ordinary people from Makarov last night, causing him to become stressed and exhausted, Mira walked down the stairs towards Noah.
Looking down at Noah, who was sleeping sprawled on the table, Mira reached out a hand, clearly intending to slap him awake.
However, the next moment, an unexpected scene unfolded before Mira's eyes.
"Drip…"
Amidst the extremely faint sound, a crystal-clear droplet slid down Noah's cheek as he slept on the table, landing on the surface and dampening it.
It was Noah's tear.
Mira's pupils, which always seemed to hold fierce and assertive emotions, suddenly trembled violently, and her heart couldn't help but flutter in panic, feeling at a loss for a moment.
Crying?
Noah was crying?
Why?
Mira couldn't get the answer to that question.
At least, not right now.
However, the sight of Noah shedding tears in his sleep did bring a great shock to Mira.
This was the first time Mira had seen Noah cry.
Before this, Mira's impression of Noah was only that he was shrewd and capable, strong, had a stronger will than most people, had a very strong autonomy, and was a very gentle person.
After all, before joining 『Fairy Tail』, Noah had saved Mira, Elfman, and Lisanna from a dangerous situation, and had also revealed the truth about the possession by demons, bringing the three Mira siblings into 『Fairy Tail』.
To Mira, Noah was like someone who had saved her.
Most importantly, the gentle scene of Noah fearlessly stroking Mira's Demon Arm, which represented shadows and painful memories, had long been deeply engraved in Mira's heart, making Mira unable to believe that such a person would have a weak side that shed tears.
But even knowing that Noah had a weak side that ordinary people didn't know, what could Mira do?
Staring blankly at Noah sprawled on the table, tears occasionally flowing from his tightly closed eyes and dripping onto the surface, Mira was at a loss, hesitating until a while later before trembling and reaching out, somewhat timidly wiping the tears from Noah's cheeks.
As Mira wiped, Noah seemed to feel a little itchy, wrinkling his nose and adjusting his posture, startling Mira, who thought he was about to wake up. Only when Noah's clear breathing reached her ears again did Mira breathe a sigh of relief.
At this time, there was no longer any trend of tears flowing from Noah's eyes. It seemed that because he had been disturbed, his dream had changed, and his expression was unusually peaceful.
Looking at Noah's extremely peaceful sleeping face, Mira still wiped Noah's cheeks with her hand, or rather, caressed Noah's cheeks. Her hand no longer trembled, nor was it timid, but instead began to linger.
"Could it be that Lisanna insists on waking this guy up every day just so she can see such a sleeping face?" Mira muttered to herself, unable to help but reveal her true feelings.
"That's really… sneaky…"
Saying so, Mira began to stare at Noah's sleeping face. Not knowing what she was thinking, she first smiled slightly, smiling more sweetly than ever before, then her cheeks flushed red, and she surreptitiously glanced around. Looking at Noah's sleeping face again, she actually swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"J… just for a moment… it should be fine… right?…"
Along with the transmission of such a somewhat unconfident remark, Mira's cheeks became more and more red. Finally, as if she had mustered some courage, she leaned down towards Noah.
At this moment, Mira's eyes rippled like water waves, exceptionally blurred.
And Mira's delicate and cute face was also constantly approaching Noah's peaceful sleeping face, causing a pink atmosphere to reverberate in the air.
"Chuu…"
A sound, although subtle, but unusually clear due to the silent environment, rang out.
Mira's tender lips finally came into zero-distance contact with Noah's lips, causing the pink atmosphere to take on a bit of warmth, becoming somewhat scorching.
"Mmm…"
Not knowing how long had passed, Mira reluctantly let go of Noah's lips, straightened up, lightly stroked her own lips with one hand, her cheeks were incredibly flushed, her eyes were blurred, and her expression was blank, as if she was in a trance.
"My first kiss… I gave it to him?…" Seeming to not even believe that such a thing had happened, Mira stroked her lips, and after a long time, she embarrassedly held her flushed cheeks and cried out in a low voice.
"W… what exactly did I do…"
As soon as these words fell, a voice full of doubt came from behind Mira.
"What did I do, what did I do?"
"Eek!" Mira, feeling guilty as sin, shrieked at the sudden voice.
"Eep!" The newcomer seemed just as startled by Mira's sudden scream, letting out a shriek of their own.
Mira quickly turned around, looking behind her, and then her pretty face panicked, and she stammered.
"Li... Li... Li... Lisanna?!"
"Y-yes... it's me..." Lisanna patted her little chest, staring blankly at the flustered, red-cheeked Mira.
"Mira, what's wrong? Why did you suddenly scream?"
"N-n-n-nothing! " Mira took a few steps back, forcing a smile, her voice a little hoarse.
"Li... Lisanna, when did you get here?"
"Just now." Lisanna looked at her sister, her face full of confusion.
"Is something wrong?"
"N-no... um... well..." Mira fidgeted.
"Did... did you see anything just now?"
"See anything?" The confusion on Lisanna's face deepened.
"Should I have seen something?"
Hearing this, Mira breathed a sigh of relief without showing it, gradually returning to her usual calm.
"Mira..." Lisanna stared intently at Mira, puffing out her cheeks.
"Are you hiding something from me?"
"Ahaha..." Mira guiltily averted her gaze.
"How... how could I possibly be hiding something from you? Right?"
"How suspicious..." Lisanna stared intently at Mira, making Mira feel more and more guilty, unconsciously reaching out her hand once again to cover her lips.
Lisanna was stunned for a moment, then, as if she had thought of something, she quickly turned her head to look at Noah, who was sleeping on the table. When she saw that Noah's lips seemed a little moist and swollen, Lisanna's eyes widened, and she looked at Mira in disbelief.
"Mira... could it be that you..."
"I... Isn't it about time to wake him up?!" Mira panicked and interrupted Lisanna, saying awkwardly.
"Isn't Lisanna very curious about what Magic he's learned? Then hurry up and wake him up!"
Lisanna pouted, her eyes a little teary.
"Mira, you're so sly!"
Little did she know that Mira had just said the same thing.
