-Malia's POV, that day in the morning-
I shivered, holding my mug to my lips and gulping down the warm water.
I felt someone's eyes on me and I instantly looked up, feeling a pull at my heart as my eyes latched onto Zeref's across the field, behind the fence. He was so far yet he felt so close from just eye contact.
His face was one of worry and his lips were slightly pulled downwards only the smallest amount, like a tiny frown. My body locked into place as I clenched my jaw, the urge to shift resurfacing. My mug nearly fell out of my hands as I shut my eyes, fearing the golden glint would flicker in them.
My senses expanded as I heard chattering in my ear and exhales of people around me.
So loud.
I shivered, trying to concentrate on my own breathing but then I heard something else.
Zeref.
