Chapter 1: Tea?
-(Normal P.O.V)-
Team Natsu was currently on a train and they were heading to Master Bob's Palace, which is a large villa. Apparently after winning 'The Grand Magic Games' The Trimens invited Fairy Tail, to have a 'Tea party'. But its not just Fairy Tail, they also invited Lamia Scale. Also they were only expecting a few people.
Furthermore, It was 10:00 in the morning and it will take about three hours to get to the villa. Team Natsu knew that, but the train won't move, until the passengers was already on board. And it appears that, they were the first ones to board the train —Thanks to Erza— and so they get to choose which row or which group of seats, they want to sit on. After exchanging some few words with each other. Gray decided to sit besides the window, while Lucy sat beside him. Across them, Natsu also sat besides the window and Erza beside him. And Happy you ask? Well, he just sat on Lucy's lap. Each of them, has their own reasons why they choose to sit on that slot. Gray saying "I like watching the passing scenery" Lucy's excused "I don't want to disturb you guys if I want to go somewhere, that's why I don't like sitting besides the window..." and Erza's speech "I don't care where I seat, as long as I can take a seat...blah blah.." And after finishing Erza's—inspiring—speech about her 'not-caring-where-should-she-take-a-seat' it's finally Natsu's turn, but by the time Erza finished her speech, the train was already moving, making Natsu have 'motion sickness' so he really doesn't get to say his reason and all Erza, Lucy, Gray and of course Happy got from him was his groaning and curses under his breath. And Happy's reason? Well its simple, he's a cat and he really doesn't want to take a sit, so he chose to sit on Lucy's lap. He considered laying on Natsu's head, but knowing about Natsu's condition, he thinks its not a good idea...so well...he practically forced himself to sit on Lucy's lap.
"So you're saying that you just forced yourself to sit on my lap, because of Natsu's condition?" Lucy said sounding really irritated.
"I don't really have a choice Lucy. And are you getting old Lucy? You just repeated the same thing I said a while ago...Jeez, Lucy you should learn to listen" Happy sighed, while Gray snickered. Making her more pissed than she already was.
Moments later, you could imagine Lucy puffing her cheeks with her arms crossed. She was looking the other way around, but she won't admit that sometimes she would glanced at him and when he catch her looking at him, she would puff out her cheeks, look away and muttered words like "Stupid Gray..."
And Gray, well he earned a bump on his head (from Lucy) after snickering at what Happy said. 'Damn..it hurts..' he placed his elbow on the windowsill his hand on his cheek; he sighed 'Lucy can be scary sometimes...' While Happy, he was passed out on Lucy's lap. If it wasn't because of Lucy who pinched his cheeks while at the same time pulling it. He even apologized but Lucy pretended not to hear him. Unfortunately, he felt unconscious and passed out. Up until now his cheeks was still red.
And that's what happened, leaving Gray and Lucy in this — or dare I say it — awkward situation.
'Should I apologize...?' The two of them thought. Then suddenly shook their heads 'No! I didn't do anything wrong..its all his/her fault anyway.'
And at the same time they glanced at each other, not knowing they were looking at each for quite a time, after realizing it; their eyes widen, then quickly looked away with a 'tched'.
Erza was looking at them the whole time, quite pleased. For her, it was somewhat entertaining to watch her two beloved teammates like this. But for some time now, she's been sensing the bad vibes the two has been giving out. Taking a deep breath, she sighed "How long are you two gonna keep this up?" she asked, looking at them with narrowed eyes.
Startling the two mages Lucy looked at her, slightly surprised and then asked "W-what do you mean...?" Honestly, she didn't mean to stutter. But because of the look on Erza's face, she can't help it. Erza ignored her question and look directly at Gray. Who doesn't seem to care. "Gray" she called out his name, earning a "what" look from him.
"Won't you apologize?" she asked, in a low tone. Its more like a threat than a question to Gray, so in a split second she asked him that question, something inside him snapped. He suddenly looked at Lucy and apologized; afterwards he leaned back onto his seat; crossed his arms and closed his eyes and sort out his thoughts. 'I hate the fact of me being scared of Erza...I seriously hate it.' Letting out a soft sigh, he silently listened to the sound of the wheels on the joints in the rail.
While on the other hand, Lucy was taken aback when Gray apologized. She was expecting that he would argue with Erza, but he didn't. He just looked at her and apologized! 'How can he say that so easily..?' She thought frowning while glancing at the ice mage next to her.
Erza's eyes twitched irritably as she look at her two teammates. 'Why are they making a big deal out of one small little thing. Seriously, sometimes I think that Natsu's stupidity has got to them.' She sighed.
It's already been an hour since they left Magnolia's train station which means they only have two hours left until they arrived at their destination. After the incident between Gray and Lucy. Lucy eventually found sleep after thinking of some things. Gray however, was still in the same position, but later on he felt his eyes grow heavy due to fatigue. Meanwhile, Natsu lies on Erza's lap. And Erza well she had her eyes close, but she was not sleeping, she was probably lost in her thoughts. And Happy, well when he felt unconscious he started dreaming about FISH.
Down the line, Lucy's head rested on Gray's shoulder. Gray who woke up because of the sudden intrusion. (A/N: I don't know if that's the right word..:P) He looked at Lucy, who was sleeping peacefully; looking like an angel. His neck stiffens and gulped. 'damn it, why does she have to be so cu-' Erza coughed cutting him off his thoughts. He looked at the smirking red-haired mage. 'Still mad at her Gray?' she didn't literally said it, but on the look on her face; Gray could tell she's thinking it. So Gray glared and mouthed 'Shut Up'. He slightly moved away, from Lucy. But it was the wrong thing to do, since she fidgeted due to the sudden movement and well, wrapped herself onto Gray's arm. Gray blushed, well who wouldn't? He could feel his arm being devoured by Lucy's bre - *cough* 'shit. I'm being a big pervert.' He suddenly covered his mouth with his free hand and starting muttering incoherent words. He's literally trying to stop himself from having a nosebleed. Erza watched Gray delighted. She giggled silently, when she looked at Gray's red face. And smirked when she decided to punish him later for having such dirty thoughts of Lucy.
Gray didn't want to admit it, but he sorta-maybe-kinda has a SLIGHT crush on the Celestial Mage. —SLIGHT okay? SSSLLIIIGHHTT!— He can't even believe that he's somewhat jealous —You heard him. Yes, Gray Fullbuster is freakin' Jealous— to his rival-slash-best friend who was so close to the girl he has a "sorta-maybe-kinda, SLIGHT crush on".
He sighed, then looked at Lucy from the corner of his eye. 'I hate it when she looks so cu- ' Another cough from Erza. 'never mind...'
It was a bright sunny morning! And our favorite celestial mage, is preparing to go to the guild. Wearing her usual clothes, she stepped out of her apartment and called out her dog, Plue, as company. Humming as she walked past the town. Smiling to the citizens of Magnolia.
When she finally reached her destination. She walked through the guild's entrance and said 'good morning' to everybody, which some people gladly ignored, som people greeted her like Wendy and Levy. The odd thing is, they were no brawls. Peculiarly to a particular Ice Mage and a Fire Mage. Is it because she came to early today? The guild being quiet rather than being noisy and rowdy, seems unusually weird and new to her. Sighing, she shrugged the thought off and suggested herself to go and walked up to the bar. She sat on a stool, waiting for the beautiful white-haired mage coming out from the kitchen, greeting her with a smile. But sadly, she never came.
Well this is weird.
"Where the heck is Mira..?" she asked herself.
"Mornin' Luce!" a voice shouted. She looked behind her, only to saw Natsu cheerful as ever."Natsu!" she beamed happily. Natsu grinned and sat beside her. 'Hmm? Where's happy? And Maybe I can asked her about Mira' she thought, smiling.
"Whats Up Luce?" he smiled at her.
"Fine. Nehh Natsu, where is Mira?" she asked.
"Mira? Who the hell are you talking about..?" he gave her a confusing look.
Lucy was taken a back. Then again, he was probably hiding something from her. She knows he's a prankster."You've got to be kidding me. Now tell me, where's Mira! and Where's Gray? Usually you two are the first ones to start brawls over pointless things. Anyways if you don't tell me where Mira and Gray is, I'll tell Master Makarov the incidents you made from our last mission." she threatened him but he just kept giving her a confused look. And it somewhat creeped her out.
"I don't know who's this Mira is Luce. And..and..I know you missed Gray...but he's been dead, don't you remember..? And Master Makarov? He's also been dead a long time ago! Our Master now is Laxus! Sheesh, Luce! Did you hurt your head somewhere? If Happy was here, he would tease you right now. Hahahahahahaha! Anyways, I'll go pick a mission for us!" Then he left, leaving Lucy shocked.
'Gray's dead? Is the guild trying to put a prank on me again..?! No! Erza would tell me that. ERZA! Where the heck is she! And what's wrong with Natsu! Saying Gray's been dead or Laxus was our guild master, hmm..she's probably in the kitchen, knowing her, she probably ate all the cheesecakes." She thought. She jumped off the stool and quickly walked towards the kitchen. She slowly opened the door, only to be greeted by a dark room. Literally , she couldn't see a thing. She hears rats running around, she heard a dripping sound on the far corner of the room. Its like this kitchen hasn't been used in a long time. She looked around, looking for a switch. When she finally found the switch and she turned it on. She was surprised, scrared and for some reason, she can't move..its like her body was paralyzed, she moved her head, to face the left wall of the kitchen. Her eyes grew wider, when she saw Gray, Mira, Erza and Master Makarov heads hangin on the wall. Some blood covering their faces. She wanted to scream, but nothing was coming out from her mouth. She felt uneasy.
"Well Well, if it isn't Lucy Heartfilia" she heard someone say.
"Who's there...!" she exclaimed.
She only could see that eyeless, faceless dark shaped-figure slowly rising up from a table, VERY SLOWLY and started to walk towards her. She wasn't sure if it's a man. All she knew that it was coming closer, but she can't moved. She was paralyzed.
The figure let out a sadistic laugh, then put a knife in her throat, slowly gliding it upwards until it reach her chin.. "Another one, for my wonderful collection...hmmm." another one of his malicious laugh, before, cutting her head off.
blood was everywhere...
Then everything went black...
Lucy suddenly sat up with a gasped.
"L-Lucy..?"
Gray noticed that she has been sweating a lot and her cheeks was flushed red. "Say Erza.." Gray called out, gaining the attention of Erza. Who was sitting quietly and playing with Natsu's hair. She cocked an eyebrow at Gray, wondering what does he want from her.
"Do you have a towel...? Or a handkerchief? "
"Yeah, why?"
"Well, Lucy's been sweating a lot, so I just want to wipe off the sweat on her face before she gets a cold.." Gray looked away from Erza, by the look on his face, he was clearly embarrassed.
"Heh, you just had a 'bad thing' with her an hour ago; and you really seemed frustrated and now you act like nothing happened. That's very sweet for an Ice Mage" She teased him. Gray gave her a glare before speaking "Just give me the towel already!" Gray sighed. Erza smiled at him and handed her a small fluffy pink towel.
Before wiping her face, he changed Lucy's position; carefully he let her head lay on his lap, like what Erza did to Natsu. Afterwards, Gray slowly put the pink towel on her cheek. He felt Erza staring at him, but he didn't dare to look at her.
"What are you so nervous about?" Erza asked, narrowing her eyebrows.
Gray didn't reply, at the tone on her voice, Gray can't tell if she's teasing him or not.. "Its just Lucy" she smirked. Oh she's definitely TEASING HIM. Gray groaned before gently placing the towel on her forehead, he can't helped but glanced at the Celestial Mage's lips, which was partly opened. 'it looks like candy' he thought, blushing. Then ever so slowly, he began sliding down the towel, until it reached her neck. When he was done, he leaned back on his seat. Realizing that he was holding his breath for a long time now, he let out a huge sigh before looking at her face again. A small smile slowly etched on his lips as he looked at her.
"You Liiiiiiiiiike her~!" Happy chimed, grinning.
"Shut Up!" Gray growled, cheeks red. "And when did you wake up?" Gray lowered his voice.
"About a minute ago" Happy replied, still grinning. "Come on, Gray just admit it!"
"Admit what, cat?" Gray groaned.
"Admit that you like Lucyyy~" He teased.
Gray was about to retort but without warning, Lucy shot up with a gasped, startling Happy, Erza and especially Gray.
Lucy gasped as she sat up straight, she was again covered in sweat, her cheeks was flushed and she was breathing heavily. 'It's...it's just a nightmare' she thought. She was relieved that it was just a nightmare. But suddenly, images flashed through her head at once. The image of Gray and her friends and that black figure...she started to cry.
"L-Lucy..?" Gray stuttered; he place a hand on her shoulder, making her look at him.
"G-gray...you're a-alright..." Lucy sobbed.
"What do you - " Gray didn't get to finished his sentence. Since Lucy hugged him, leaving him speechless. She buried her head in his chest. And mumbled "I'm so glad..."
As for Gray, he didn't know what to do in this kind of situation. So he just hugged Lucy back and comforted her, rubbing her back.
"Lucy!" Happy yelled. Breaking the hug, Lucy looked over at Happy and smiled.
"Lucy? Why are you crying?" Erza asked, worried.
"Oh I just had a nightmare, it was really scary since you guys were there..." Lucy trailed off, rubbing her tears.
"You want to talk about it..?" Gray said, he was not looking at her but at the sound of his voice, she knew he was concern about her. She smiled, and shook her head "Nah, I don't want too, its one hell of a nightmare...I just want to forget about it..but thanks..."
"I see..." Gray said. He desperately wanted to know about Lucy's nightmare. But if that's what she wants, well..he's gonna have to respect it.
"Gomen" Lucy apologized.
"Why are you apologizing?" Happy gave her a confused look.
"You guys must have been worried about me...Gomen" Lucy frowned. She didn't like it when everybody is worrying about her. "I know I've been a burde—"
"You don't need to apologized. You didn't do nothing wrong." Erza smiled. "Right Natsu?"
"mrrrffff..." Natsu groaned. Causing Lucy and Happy to laugh, while Erza smiled, but the smile slowly faded when she looked at Gray. 'What's his problem?'
"It's so nice..that Blue Pegasus invited us to a tea party." Happy added with a huge grinned on his face as he floated around them. Lucy smiled in agreement.
"I wonder what will Ichiya says when he sees you Erza." Gray smirked.
"Shut Up. Gray." Erza muttered a dark aura surrounding her.
"Yes Ma'am" Gray gulped.
"Neh Neh Lucy! You know Gray Liiiiiikes you!" he grinned. And Gray was fighting the urge to strangle the cat.
Lucy sweat-dropped and said "Please stop rolling your tongue like that.."
Thereafter, the four of them chatted about random things, leaving Natsu out of their conversation since he was having motion-sickness. And also they were avoiding the topic of Lucy's nightmare and what Gray did while Lucy's sleeping.
- (Normal P.O.V) -
After, the three-hour trained ride, they finally arrived at a large forest called Worth Woodsea. They were at the northern part of the forest, after all the palace was on the south, so they we're forced to walk, since they were no carriages around.
"I can't believe we just walked...through that whole forest.." Lucy said between pants while she placed her hand on Gray's shoulder. Gray looked at her then grinned "You know the villa is on the south part of the forest. So we need to walk."
"But we should have just taken a carriage" Lucy whined. Gray sighed "They were no carriages around that's why we walk."
Then Natsu stood besides Lucy "Aside from that Lucy, you need to exercise..you're getting fa-!"
"SHUT UP!" Lucy screeched as she smacked Natsu in the head, causing Gray to laugh.
"Oww..What's that for?!" Natsu yelled, as he rubbed his head.
"Just SHUT UP!"
"You three. Stop playing around. We need to find the villa." Erza scolded.
Gray, Natsu and Lucy kept quiet after Erza scolded them.
"Why do we have to go to that tea party again Erza?" Gray spoke up, emphasizing the word tea party. Natsu groaned and Lucy nodded, agreeing with Gray.
"It's because will get to bond more with the other guilds" Erza explained, but quickly added "And Master suggested it"
'So that means you don't want to go either?' Gray and Lucy thought while they sweat-dropped.
"Hey Guys that's the Villa right?" Natsu grinned, as he pointed at the building.
"Indeed, that's the place where we formed the Light Team " Erza smiled remembering their memories. The five of them grinned as they walked towards the villa.
'Now that I think about it, why didn't Wendy come..?'
Not realizing that Lucy just said that out loud, Erza answered "It's because she's sick"
"She says she would love to come but she is having some kind..of Flu (?)" Natsu added, while scratching his head.
Happy, hearing Wendy's name, immediately thought about her beautiful —ignorant— cat, named Carla.
"Carla... I wish she would just accept my fish…" Happy pouted.
Lucy who was listening to him, decided to tease the poor blue exceed as revenge for all the —stupid, annoying, embarrasing— things he did to her, mostly it was teasing her about how fa— (SHUT UP!) she is.
"You Liiiiiiiiiike Her!" Lucy teased, mimicking him.
"Stop mimicking me!" Happy screeched.
Lucy ignored him and smiled "Well at least she got used to you. She became more friendlier don't you think?" Lucy said remembering the times when Carla rejected Happy and his gift, which is usually Fish.
"Aaaahhhh~ good times~" Lucy grinned.
"Lucy's right when we first met her.. she was very.. what's the word?" Erza trailed off, as she put her index finger on her chin.
"Cold?" Lucy said, putting her arms behind her.
"Boring?" Natsu mumbled, rubbing his hair.
"How about judgemental and very overprotective when it comes to Wendy." Gray suggested, folding his arms behind his head.
"AYE!"
Natsu groaned again "Enough chitchatting guys, let's go inside already!" Natsu, getting impatient, ran towards the villa's entrance, opening two large doors.
"AYE!" Happy cheered, following him and landed on his head.
Gray and Lucy sighed, as they followed Natsu, while Erza looked behind them she didn't know why; but it feels like someone is following them.
"Erza! You coming?!" Lucy yelled. Erza looked at her, smiled and walked towards after them.
"I didn't actually see Lamia Scale and Blue Pegasus after the The Grand Magic Games.." Lucy murmured, as they entered the villa.
"Well me too. Maybe that's why they invited us." Erza said, following after her.
The five entered the building's entrance and was greeted by an extremely large hall; with a mezzanine held up by square. Some pillars were adorned by many stylized hearts and topped by a balustrade, with more pillars visible on it, holding up the ceiling. The floor consists of many large and square tiles, and the central part of it, is dominated by a large, royal carpet, with its light edges adorned by a number of lined up hearts, which goes from the entrance up the majestic staircase leading to the mezzanine, which is larger in the lower part and gets mildly smaller as it nears the mezzanine itself, with the side handrails following it and joining up with those on the mezzanine. (A/N: I got these, from Fairy Tail Wiki :P I don't want to mess up with the design, since you guys already saw the villa in the anime)
"Is it just me or this place got much more wider and bigger than the first time we got here.." Gray mumbled, looking around.
"Gray, you're shirt." Lucy said. 'My shirt?' Gray cocked an eyebrow at her. Lucy sighed and responded by pointing her index finger down, signaling him to look down. He still gave her a confused look, but still looked down. "Shit! When did this happen?!" Gray cursed and looked for his shirt.
"Yo! Its been a while" a familiar voice spoke.
'That voice..' Lucy shivered at the thought "H-Hibiki?"
"Well If it isn't Lucy Heartfilia..?" Hibiki said as he walked through the stairs and strolled closer to her. He held her hand and kneeled down to kiss it, making Lucy blush and shiver.
"Stop scaring her Hibiki" Ren retorted "Can't you see she's shivering..?" Ren said walking down the stairs with Eve.
Hibiki shot him a glare and went back to flirting with Lucy.
"Hello Erza-san, would you want a drink?" Eve asked, already handing her a cocktail. Erza refused, but Eve kept bugging or should I say flirting with her.
"Where's the food?! I thought were having a Tea Party " Natsu asked, scratching his head. "We are, its just that, the members from Lamia Scale is not here yet." Ren responded.
"Master!" Eve, Ren and Hibiki said in unison, as they saw Ichiya walk down the stairs, with his signature post.
"Men~! I smell good perfume! Erza-san?" Ichiya said as he got closer to Erza. 'Smelling more of her perfume'
"STAY AWAY FROM ME!" Erza said shivering while backing away from Ichiya.
Natsu pouted "I'm bored! I want to fight! GRAY! Fight me!" Natsu yelled, while pointing his finger at Gray who was still looking for his shirt and not noticing that he was only clad in his underwear. Gray glared at him and insulted Natsu saying "Shut up! Pinky!" Natsu was about to respond but someone interrupted them stating "We came here to have a tea party not to fight"
Natsu looked at him and said "who's the freak?"
"Lyon!" Gray yelled, surprised.
"Gray" Lyon smirked.
"Hello again. My friends." Jura greeted.
"Ah I see, Welcome Lamia Scale!" Ren smirked. "Sorry for the inconvenience, we didn't prepare a proper greeting." Ren bowed down, avoiding the noises in the background. After bowing, he stood up and smiled.
In the background, while Ren is greeting Lamia Scale.
You can imagine, Ichiya skipping towards Erza saying "I need more perfume Erza-san!" As for Erza.. "Stay Back!" Erza yelled and pulled out a sword, out of nowhere.
Aside from them, try to picture a sparkling Hibiki saying "Lucy..sleep with me tonight." then hugged her. And Lucy, who was shocked from the sudden contact, she stuttered saying "N-no t-thank you!" and then she TRIED pushing Hibiki away but to no avail, she failed. Letting out a sigh, she just let Hibiki hugged her and NO. She didn't hug him back.
During that time, Natsu who was bored; started annoying Eve, since his best friend-slash-rival Gray is with Lyon. "Oy Evie! Fight me!" He said gaining the attention of the young blond which is Eve who was already annoyed by the name 'Evie' "Its Eve, Natsu-kun. What do you want?" Eve asked. Natsu grinned and said "Lets Fight!" Eve smirked and said "Shall we make a bet?" Natsu thought for a moment and agreed. "If you win I'll admit you're a great Dragon Slayer" Eve said. "Pfshh. I already knew that I'm a great dragon slayer" Natsu laughed. "I'm well aware of that, Natsu. But I always thought that you're a good Dragon Slayer not great" Eve provoked him. "Heh? I'll make you say that." Natsu said, quickly adding " And if you win I get to be your slave for the whole day" making Eve grinned.
And then the fight begins.
"REN!" Someone from behind Jura, called.
"Sherry!" Ren as he run towards Sherry and hugged her.
Jura smiled as he saw the two hugged. Randomly he looked for a certain blue-haired girl, but sadly he didn't see her. He then saw Lucy talking to Hibiki. Then he decided to just ask Lucy where Wendy is.
When Hibiki finally ended the long warm hug with Lucy, he smiled; he was really determined to get close to Lucy after the Nirvana accident, even though that was a really long time ago. He then make up his mind with a decision, to just stopped flirting with Lucy and try to get to know her more and to do that... hmm...Lets just say start with a simple conversation. He sighed, thinking of a topic since Lucy was staring at him, "Hmmmm, say Lucy..who do you think is the smartest? Gray or Natsu?" Hibiki asked, he mentally cursed himself for asking such a stupid question.
Lucy giggled "What's wrong with you Hibiki? I know you know the answer!"
"Oh really now?" He chuckled nervously, rubbing his temples.
"Yep. You know that, either one of them is smart. But they somewhat have the tendency to solve a lot of things" she replied, giggling.
"Heh, but I believe that Natsu is smarter than Gray" Hibiki said, thoughtfully.
Lucy grinned "What? No way! Natsu's really dense! He doesn't even know whats the meaning of Love!" All of a sudden, the two laugh out loud as they clutched their stomachs while tears started to well up in their eyes. The two finally stopped laughing and Lucy hastily placed a hand on Hibiki's shoulder and said "That was a really good question Hibiki!" she stifled a laugh. Hibiki was about to reply, but when he saw Jura approaching them, he just gave her a smile. Which made Lucy blush, since she didn't know that Hibiki can smile...like that. It was totally different from the usual smiles he wear.
"Lucy-san where is Wendy?" Jura asked.
Lucy looked away from Hibiki and looked at Jura. Lucy sighed as she removed her hand on Hibiki's shoulder and replied "Eh… she's sick.." Lucy said feeling kind of sad.
"I-I'm here!" Wendy shouted as she stood at the entrance with Carla; but no one seems to notice them well except for Lucy and Jura, since the others were busy...minding their own business.
"Eh?!" Lucy shrieked. She quickly ran towards Wendy and took hold of her shoulders started shaking her. "Wendy?! How did you get here?! I thought you were sick?" Lucy asked, still shaking her.
"Lucy! Stop shaking Wendy!" Carla scolded. Lucy stopped and apologized to the two. When Wendy finally regained her composure, she gave Lucy a smile and started answering her question. "I recovered fast because Charles took me Porlyusica-san and she healed me. And then I remember the invite, so Charles carry me here by using her magic and I was following you guys..."
"Ah, I see." Lucy smiled. "Wait did you just said that Porlyusica-san healed you?" Wendy looked at her confused but still nodded. "Heh, she didn't throw any spitfires at you did she?" Lucy asked.
Wendy again looked at her confused. 'spitfire?' she thought. Lucy sighed "You know..when she suddenly says 'Go home already! I hate humans!' " Lucy said making expressions of Porlyusica.
Wendy giggled "Not really, Lucy-san" Lucy smiled, and patted Wendy's head.
"Lucy-san, may I excused Wendy for a moment?" Jura asked.
"Uhh..yeah..sure go ahead!" Lucy mumbled, then she excused herself from the two.
"What is it Jura-sama?" Wendy asked.
"I would just like to congratulate you on your guys victory at the Grand Magic Games." Jura said.
"Oh thank you Jura-sama!" Wendy grinned.
Afterwards, they talked about how Wendy improved and stuff.
When Lucy excused herself from Wendy and Jura, she looked for Hibiki. When she finally spotted Hibiki , he was about to punch Natsu in the face. She let out a sigh and walked away. 'Heh, since everyone's busy maybe I should go for a walk outside..' Lucy thought, then she shrugged 'besides they even won't notice anyway that I'm gone.' She grinned and exited the villa.
Apparently when Lucy was talking to Wendy, Hibiki somehow got involved with Eve and Natsu's fight. When Jura came to talk with Lucy, he was busy with his thoughts. "Did...did she just blushed..?" Hibiki muttered softly, only for him to hear. He was so distracted that he didn't notice Eve was in front of him; but his back facing him.
"Fire Dragon's:.." Natsu heaved "..Roar!". Eve quickly got out-of-the-way, since Hibiki was behind Eve, he didn't notice that Natsu's attack was heading towards him.
"Hibiki watch out!" Eve screeched. Hibiki finally snapped out of his thoughts, realizing what was going on, he quickly defence himself from Natsu's attack.
"What the hell?! Stay out-of-the-way Hibiki! That was meant for Eve! Not you!" Natsu shouted. Hibiki got pissed off and decided to punch Natsu in the face. Natsu flew and landed on the wall, knocking him out. After punching Natsu, he regained his composure and dusted some dust of his suit. Eve ran towards the knocked out Natsu and grinned "I WIN!" He said cheerfully and thanked Hibiki for punching Natsu. Hibiki replied with a 'tched' and looked for Lucy.
"Where's Lucy..?" he asked to no one particular. Then he thought about possible places where Lucy might've gone too. First was she either gone up the stairs and looked around the second floor. Or she perhaps exited the villa. He thought about the first one for a time, then shook his head 'no, Lucy won't wander off like that..So its possible that she exited the villa since she has nowhere to be seen' He again looked around and groaned in frustration. 'Ah whatever! I'm going outside' And with that, he exited the villa and looked for Lucy.
On the other hand, Lucy was humming happily as she walked through the forest. She smiled at the different plants she saw except for some creepy animals that was following her. But she didn't mind, since she knew they didn't mean no harm. Then she stumbled upon a magical frog that was signalling her to follow it. Since she was curious, she followed it.
The frog hopped and hopped until it disappeared, it seems like it hopped through a bush. Lucy was still curious, so she walked through it.
"Wow!" she gasped. The scene in front of her was paradise! Apparently the frog, led her to a place that was quite peaceful.
The area was full of different kind of trees. Some moss growing on the trunks of the trees, droplets of water dripping from large leaves, and water trickling through the little creek. Hearing some birds tweet and fly around the area. The quietness and the coolness of the place gave Lucy peace. There was a waterfall, that was so high, that Lucy can't even tell how many feet it was. She heard the splashing waters of the waterfall slowly created a steady pattern of endless rhythm. At the end of the waterfall, the water was light blue and clean like a pool. She let out a sigh of contentment, "This place is so wonderful" Then she walked over to a grassy place under a tree and sat down on it. She looked around, wondering if Blue Pegasus know about this place. Shrugging, she lay down she slowly closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
"Where the heck is Lucy?!" Hibiki started panicking, he was looking for her for almost 30 minutes now, and still no sign of the blonde. Shit! Fairy Tail is gonna kill him!
"Lucy!" He yelled and yelled and yelled and yelled, but still no answer. Then it struck him, she probably went to that place. He then ran to the direction, that will lead him to that place. When he finally got there, he found her sleeping under a tree. He panted as he walked towards the sleeping girl. He sat down beside her and smiled. He move the strands of hair in her face and tuck them behind her ear. Then he stared at her face. 'c-cute..' he thought blushing. He leaned in closer to her face, planning to kiss her. But he stopped when their nose touched, he then backed away from the blonde and sat up. 'What the heck am I doing..? I can't take advantage of her like that!' he scolded himself. He stood up, and looked at the still sleeping blonde.
"Lucy~! Wake up!" He yelled.

Yippee! I have a new record! 6,000+ words!
To my followers and reviewers,
I'm sorry, I didn't update! But don't worry, I'll update as soon as I finished editing the other chapters.
Anyways, thanks to my friend, who was helping me edit this chapter and probably edit every chapter.. I know you noticed a lot of changes, but some lines are still the same. *cries* My friends even scolded me for not writing exciting events or happenings, so I added some, they even helped me improved my writing. Well I do hope I improved. *sigh* But I won't give up! I'll try my best in improving my writing.
BTW, the genres of this story is Harem, Romance, hurt/comfort and friendship. I considered Harem since some guys are fighting over Lucy. In this chapter, you know that Gray and Hibiki likes Lucy, but is not just the two of them fighting over her, cuz' a dense idiot will join them. Gihihi. I hope you get the hint.
And the pairings...
well...
*sigh*
You guys should know..that I ship all pairings in Fairy Tail, except for Gruvia (no offence Gruvia fans) I don't hate Juvia, but I think she's perfect for Lyon (just my opinion).
I was planning to make this story NatsuxErza & Graylu. But I think this is DEFINITELY and a PROBABLY Graylu story.
I'm not sure. Even though I'm the author. *sigh* I'll give me some time to think about it. For now, I will let the readers give me opinions.
Thank you for reviewing! Oh and for following and Favoriting? I don't know! But thanks anywayy! :))))
Love you guys!
Yah, this story is not on HIATUS. But my other story is. And I'm also working on Editing it.
CIAO! See you in the next chapter!
