Regine chuckled, claiming a bench with the kids on either side of her, "It does look like it'll be hard work - but when the rest of their friends make it back, it'll be easier I'm certain."

Lucy also claimed a seat on the bench, shaking her head with a soft smile for him. "It's okay, you don't have to."

She didn't want to say goodbye to them either, so she was glad Natsu had made the suggestion of getting Regine, the kids and Herb to come with them.
