Author's note: Hey, everyone! This is a new story that I've been thinking about for a while now, a yuri, romance story with Lucy and Mirajane as the main pairing. I've done another story with this pairing, but since this is one of my favorite yuri pairings and I got some new ideas, I thought I'd make another story with them. This will probably be a short story. I hope you enjoy it. I do not own Fairy Tail.
FAIRY MAIDENS
CHAPTER 1
It was a pleasant day in the city of Magnolia. The sun shone clearly among the white clouds, but the cool breeze made the weather much chillier than it appeared. Most of the citizens walked the streets of the city wrapped in heavy coats, eager to get back to the warmth of their houses. The guild of Fairy Tail was packed with people, as several of the mages preferred to spend their time inside the warmth of the guild, rather than at the chilly breeze. Lucy sat at one of the tables along with the rest of her teammates, who enjoyed their drinks.
"It sure is lively around here" Lucy commented, as she looked around.
"As usual. I wonder how long it will take before someone starts a random brawl" Erza said vaguely, leaning on the back of her seat.
"Why were you looking at me when you said that?" Natsu asked, with a slightly frowning expression.
"Because, you are the one who usually starts a brawl because he is bored" Lucy responded simply.
"Aye! You do that, Natsu" Happy agreed.
"You guys act like I'm the only one who does that. Almost anyone can start a fight in the guild. Elfman, Gazille, even Stripper here" Natsu said nonchalantly, pointing with his thumb towards the mage who was seated next to him.
"Don't point at me like that, Hot Pants! Besides, I'm not really in a mood of fighting anything right now" Gray said, with bored expression.
"And it's not like you don't start brawls yourself, Erza. All it takes, is someone knocking down that cake off your plate, and you go crazy" Natsu continued with the same expression, pointing towards the treat in front of Erza.
"I do not! And leave my cake alone!" Erza said, in a defensive manner.
"Don't touch my fish too!" Happy added.
"Why would I touch your fish?" Natsu retorted.
"Gray, could you put your shirt on?" Lucy said, noticing her friend's nudity.
"Again? Oh well." Gray said with an indifferent expression, as he got up to pick his shirt.
"What's with this languid reaction?" Lucy mumbled.
"Well, we should be getting used to that by now" Erza shrugged.
"Guys, we are all obviously bored. Shouldn't we do something?" Lucy said, with a hint of exasperation.
"What's the rush, Lucy? Just try to relax" Natsu said simply.
"Natsu is right. It's not that bad to simply kick back and do nothing, once in a while" Gray agreed.
"Are you listening to these slackers? They would be fine with just sitting around like this for the rest of the day!" Lucy said, as she turned towards Erza.
"Don't be like that, Lucy. I, too, think that taking it easy once in a while, is acceptable. Don't you think it's fine, the way we are all sitting together like this?" Erza said, taking a spoonful of her cake.
"Well, if you put it like this. Of course, I like hanging out with you guys" Lucy responded, looking towards the table.
"Are you sure? You seem a little, uneasy. Is there something you want to talk about?" Erza asked, noticing the blond girl's expression. Natsu and Gray leaned closer with worried looks.
"Are you okay, Lucy?" Natsu asked, with concern.
"It's okay, Lucy! You know you can talk to us about anything" Gray nodded, with a soft expression.
"Did you eat too much? I know a drink that can make you feel better in an instant! It always helps when Natsu and I eat a lot" Happy said.
"Thanks for your concern, guys! It's okay, you don't need to worry! I just, didn't sleep very well, and I'm a little drowsy. But other than that, I'm fine" Lucy said with a soft smile, touched by her friends' affection.
"I see. This is good then. In this case, I think I will take a little walk outside! A small stroll by the river should be refreshing" Gray said, as he got up.
"You are going out with that cold? Wait, what am I saying?" Lucy shook her head, as Gray gave her a blank stare.
"Perhaps you should try it too. It might wake you up" the dark haired mage suggested.
"I'll keep that in mind" Lucy rubbed the back of her head, with an embarrassed smile.
"Well, I don't mind the cold either! Come on Happy, let's go fishing!" Natsu said, getting up from his seat as well.
"Aye!" the blue cat floated enthusiastically.
"Fishing with this kind of weather?" Lucy said with surprise.
"Don't be too late, you two. We are supposed to have that party later, in the afternoon" Erza reminded them.
"Oh right, I remember Mirajane mentioning this" Gray said.
"It's fine, we won't be that long" Natsu said, with a wave of his hand.
"Okay, see you later, guys!" Lucy greeted her friends, who waved at her and Erza, as they moved away.
"Are you sure you are okay, Lucy? You do seem like something is on your mind" Erza said again, taking a closer look at her friend.
"Well, maybe there is something" Lucy mumbled, as her eyes trailed towards the bar of the guild, and landed on the guild's favorite bartender. Erza noticed Lucy's expression, she looked towards the bar, and then looked back towards her friend again with a small smile.
"I see. You are thinking about Mira, aren't you?" she said lightly. Lucy simply nodded in response, before she looked towards the table. Ever since she joined her favorite guild, Lucy had made some great friends. And one of them was one of the reasons why Lucy wanted to join Fairy Tail, one of the guild's most prominent members, Mirajane. She was beautiful, smart, friendly and kind, and quickly became one of Lucy's best friends. Over the time however, as the two girls became closer, Lucy started developing some feelings, beyond that of friendship. At first, she thought it was just a crush, one she had developed before she even met her. But Lucy slowly realized, that it was more than that. She started thinking more of the white haired girl, and tried to be around her as often as she could. Her friends and teammates, noticed this difference in her behavior, and Lucy, after some hesitance, admitted her feelings for Mirajane to them. The blond girl was relieved to find out that her friends, despite their initial surprise, not only were supportive, but they actually encouraged her to take a step. Lucy felt grateful for their warm support, but she was still hesitant to make a move.
"You still haven't talked to her?" Erza asked, looking towards her.
"I told you before, it's not that simple" Lucy mumbled, as she shifted in her seat, still looking at the table.
"Because you are good friends. I know" Erza said with a calm voice, as she took another spoonful of her cake.
"You are worried that if you confess your feelings and Mirajane doesn't respond, things will get awkward, and you may risk your friendship. And, you are also not sure if you could handle not having your feelings returned. I understand" she continued. Lucy slightly shivered, but felt something warm on top of her hand, as Erza placed her own hand on top of it. She turned towards her, only to see the red haired girl looking at her with a soft smile, as she squeezed her hand tenderly.
"It's okay! You don't need to worry! Remember what we told you the other day? It may be hard, but if you try, if you take the first step, then you may get something more than what you already have! You may get everything you wanted for so long. Besides, I know Mira! There's no way she would get angry at you, or avoid you. You would still be friends" she said, with a soft voice. Lucy felt like a heavy burden had been lifted from her chest.
"Thank you, Erza! You are right, I need to give it a shot! I just need to, wait for the right moment. It's still not that simple" she said, as she let out a heavy sight.
"Well, at least I can still go greet her! I haven't talked to her the entire morning" the blond girl added more lively, as she got up.
"That's the spirit! See you later, then!" Erza said with a small laugh, as she focused on her treat again. Lucy simply smiled back, before she made her way towards the bar.
"Good morning, Cana!" Lucy greeted, as she took a seat at the bar.
"Hey, Lucy!" the brown haired girl said lightly, with a friendly smile.
"Um, have seem Mirajane?" Lucy asked, looking around.
"She's in the back, looking for some stuff. So, have you decided to talk to her?" Cana said casually, causing Lucy to look at her with a surprised expression.
"What, what do you mean?" she stammered, as Cana gave her a knowing look.
"What do you think?" she said.
"You've noticed. Am I really that obvious?" Lucy mumbled, with a hint of frustration.
"Sometimes. Especially lately, and when you are around her" Cana responded, as she took a sip from her drink.
"Great! You think she noticed too?" Lucy said with some nervousness, as Cana put her wooden cup on the counter.
"I'm not sure. Now that you mention it, don't you think she has been more, friendly with you recently? I mean, more than usual? It could be just me, though" she said thoughtfully.
"You think? I haven't noticed anything different" Lucy said, furrowing her eyebrows in thought.
"Well, you can ask her yourself! Here she comes" Cana said casually, taking another sip from her drink. Lucy slightly tensed and sat straight, noticing that the girl who occupied her thoughts, came out of the store room, and walked towards them.
"Good morning, Lucy!" Mirajane greeted, with a warm smile.
"Good morning, Mira! You are looking great today!" Lucy said enthusiastically, without thinking. Her face however, took a light shade of pink, once she realized what she said, and sat back on her seat.
"Oh, that's so sweet of you! You look great too, Sweetie!" Mirajane said, with a cute expression.
"Th-Thanks" Lucy mumbled, avoiding Mirajane's expression, while Cana let out a small chuckle.
"So, Mira, did you find what you were looking for?" she said lightly.
"Kind of. Actually, I need to go buy a couple of things. It's not much, but we will need them for the party later" Mirajane responded.
"I see" Cana nodded, as she refilled her wooden cup, with a nearby bottle.
"I can ask Lisanna to take my place for a while, but I need someone to come with me, and help me carry the shopping bags. But who should I ask?" Mirajane tapped her finger on her chin, in thought.
"I'll do it!" Lucy nearly jumped of her seat, causing her friends to look at her with some surprise at her over excited reaction.
"I mean, I can come with you, Mira. You know, to help you with your shopping" Lucy continued more calmly, feeling embarrassed for her outburst.
"This is great! Thank you, Lucy! You are a lifesaver! Just let me grab my coat" the white haired girl flashed a big smile at her, causing Lucy's heart to skip a beat.
"No problem, Mira. I'm glad to help" she stuttered, as Mirajane smiled again, and moved away to take her coat.
"Are you sure you are going to be okay?" Cana said, trying to hold back her laugh.
"I'll be fine! I think" Lucy mumbled her last words, feeling slightly nervous.
The chilly breeze made Lucy wrap her scarf tighter around her, as the two girls made their way in the city. The sun was now almost covered by the white clouds, making the weather feel more like winter.
"Are you cold, Lucy? Maybe I shouldn't have dragged you along" Mirajane noticed, with a hint of regret.
"No, no, I'm fine! Okay, I may be a little cold, but it's okay! Really! Besides, I'm the one who offered to come with you" Lucy pointed out, smiling behind her scarf.
"That's right, you did. Still, wouldn't you prefer to remain in the warmth of the guild? They are not that many things now that I think about it. I can carry them on my own" Mirajane insisted.
"Nah, I know you, Mira! You are just saying this because you want me to go back to the guild! Don't worry, I'm fine. This cold is nothing!" Lucy claimed, taking a boastful pose, causing Mirajane to giggle.
"That's my Lucy! To be honest, I don't really mind carrying a few more bags. What I really appreciate, is your company, Lucy! And I thank you for that!" Mirajane said with a sweet smile. Lucy was grateful that her face was covered by her scarf and her winter cap, otherwise she might have trouble explaining her heavy blush. Of course, she could still blame it on the cold, but that may worry the girl next to her even more.
"Geez, you don't have to make such a big deal out of it, Mira! You are way too nice, sometimes" the blond girl puffed her cheeks, causing her friend to let out another giggle.
"So, are you really not cold at all?" she asked with wonder.
"Not really! Maybe a little bit" Mirajane responded casually. She wore a heavy coat, gloves, and had a scarf wrapped around her as well, but she didn't wear a cap, and unlike Lucy, she seemed much more comfortable with the way she walked.
"As expected from Mira! Sometimes I forget that you and Erza were rivals" Lucy commented, causing another cute laugh to escape Mirajane's lips.
"There, there, we are almost at the marketplace. But until we get there, let me warm you up a bit. Come here" the white haired girl said. Lucy let out a surprised yelp, as she felt Mirajane's arm wrapping around her, and pulling her close to her.
"Is this better?" she asked with a soothing voice. Lucy tensed at first, but she quickly relaxed, feeling the warmth of the older girl's body transfer to her own.
"Yes, this is much better! Um, it's a little embarrassing, though" Lucy mumbled, trying to avoid Mirajane's smiling expression.
"It's okay, Lucy. It's just you and me here" she said softly, as she rubbed Lucy's arm.
"So soft, and warm!" Lucy thought, smiling behind her scarf. Her heart beat so hard, that she wondered if Mirajane could actually hear it. Lucy took some deep breaths and tried to calm, as the two girls walked together in the chilly weather.
The party was held in a typical Fairy Tail fashion. Lucy wondered how come they didn't tear the whole place down, and how could they go so overboard over a simple party. It amazed her how she could still be surprised by everyone's reaction sometimes, but one of the things that she loved about her dear guild, is how spontaneous and lively everyone was. Needless to say, she enjoyed the party herself, and she was quite glad when Mirajane invited her over to Fairy Hills, where some of the girls would gather to continue the party. Lucy gladly accepted, and soon found herself in Mirajane's living room, along with some of her fellow female guild members.
"Your place is great, Mirajane!" Levy commented, as she looked around with sparkling eyes.
"Yeah, you definitely have one of the best rooms" Erza nodded in agreement.
"Thanks guys. But your places are pretty nice too! Especially you, Erza. Don't you have like five rooms?" Mirajane remarked.
"Yes, but I do use four of them for my armors and my weapons" Erza pointed out, folding her arms.
"Where is Charle, Wendy? I don't see her with you" Lucy said, turning towards the younger girl.
"Oh well, she had a little too much wine, so she dozed off in my room" Wendy said, with an embarrassed smile.
"I see. So, that's why she kept flying on top of Happy" Lucy nodded in realization.
"Pretty much" Wendy said.
"So, what shall we do to have some fun, Mira-nee?" Lisanna asked, grabbing a pillow.
"What kind of question is that? Drink, drink of course!" Cana yelled excitedly, shaking around the bottle she was holding.
"I think you in particular, already had enough drinks" Lucy said with a dry voice, as Cana simply chuckled.
"Actually, I already have something in mind" Mirajane said, as she opened a drawer.
"Tadaa!" she said with a theatrical maneuver, as she presented a small, wooden cup, filled with a number of wooden sticks.
"What's this?" Wendy asked curiously.
"Mirajane, is this what I think it is?" Erza said, raising her eyebrows
"Exactly! We are going to play the King's Game!" Mirajane announced, with a sparkling grin.
"Oh, you got to be kidding me! Not this!" Lucy groaned.
"King's Game? Juvia hasn't heard of a King's Game before. What kind of game is it?" Juvia said curiously.
"A very dangerous kind of game!" Lucy said, shivering.
"Dangerous? How- How is it played?" Wendy said with a thin voice, slightly trembling.
"Well, you see these sticks, Wendy? We all draw them at the same time, and look at the numbers on them. The one who draws the stick with the red marking is the king for that round, and whatever order the king chooses, the others must obey. The king's orders are absolute! Lu-chan is right! It is quite a, daring game!" Levy explained glancing at the cup, nervous as well.
"I couldn't have put it better myself, Levy. That's the King's game. Well, we are only girls here, so we might as well call it the Queen's Game" Mirajane said, holding the cup.
"I like it! I say we do it!" Cana claimed decisively, as she slammed the bottle on the table.
"So am I! Playing the King's Game is always a challenge!" Erza agreed smiling, with a gleam in her eyes.
"It's settled then!" Mirajane concluded.
"Wait, don't go deciding just like that! What about the rest of us?" Lucy yelled.
"I'm in! It sounds like fun!" Lisanna said simply.
"Lisanna, you too?" Lucy said with surprise.
"As expected from Mirajane's little sister!" Cana said proudly.
"Juvia wants to be King too!" the blue haired girl, with excitement.
"Why are you so excited about?" Lucy mumbled exasperated.
"Come on, Lu-chan, don't be like that! It might be fun" Levy said, still feeling a little nervous, as Wendy nodded in agreement.
"Fine! I'm in too" Lucy finally agreed, with a frown.
"That's the spirit, Lucy! Okay then, everyone draw!" Mirajane said enthusiastically, as all of the girls drew their sticks at the same time. Lucy checked her own stick, and noticed the small, black number on it.
"I'm number two, huh? So, who's the king?" she thought, with furrowed eyebrows, until she heard a voice.
"Wendy's got it! Wendy's the king!" Mirajane exclaimed, as everyone turned towards the younger girl. Wendy blinked in surprise, as she held her a stick with a red marking.
"I'm the king? So, um, I'm supposed to give an order?" she mumbled, as she lowered her head in thought.
"Oh, I know! Number two and number four must make a handshake and declare their friendship!" the young girl said with a bright smile.
"Eh? That's all?" Cana said, with clear disappointment.
"I am number two" Lucy said with some hesitance, raising her stick.
"And I'm number four!" Levy said enthusiastically, as she held out her hand. Lucy smiled, as she shook the blue haired girl's hand with vigor.
"You are my best friend, Lu-chan!" Levy declared, with a sparkling smile.
"You are my best friend too, Levy-chan!" Lucy said, with the same expression.
"How sweet!" Mirajane commented, clasping her hands.
"That must be true friendship!" Wendy said, with a dreamy expression.
"That's nice. A little boring, though" Cana mumbled, rubbing the back of her head.
"This should be expected from Wendy. She is too nice, after all. However, we must make sure that she doesn't become king again! Otherwise the game will be indeed, too boring!" Erza claimed, with a determined expression.
"You seem really fired up about this" Cana mumbled.
"Okay everyone, next round! Draw!" Mirajane said, as she held out the wooden cup again.
"I am the king! As it should be!" Erza declared triumphantly, raising the stick with the red marking.
"Not Erza!" Lucy groaned.
"Now, what should the king's command be?" Erza rubbed her chin in thought, as she scanned the other participants, causing everyone except Mirajane and Cana to shiver.
"I know! Number five must sit on number one's lap!" she said, with a commanding pose.
"What? This is embarrassing! Juvia can't do that!" Juvia yelled in distress.
"The king's orders are absolute!" Erza pointed her finger towards the blue haired girl, who started sweating.
"Come on Juvia, it's okay! I'll be nice!" Lisanna smilled, as she put the pillow away, and patted her knees.
"So, Lisanna was number one" Lucy said, as Juvia slowly got up.
"Juvia is so embarrassed!" she mumbled with a heavy blush, as she timidly sat on Lisanna's lap.
"That's better! Let's go, next round! Come on, king's mark. Oh yeah, I'm the next king!" Cana yelled, as she held out the winning stick.
"From Erza to Cana? This can't be good!" Lucy thought nervously.
"I've been waiting for this since the beginning of the game! Number seven must confess her true love!" Cana issued her command, causing everyone to gasp.
"How daring! As expected from Cana" Levy mumbled.
"I suppose, it can't be helped. The king's orders are absolute!" Erza whispered, as she got up, her expression hidden from her long hair.
"Erza" Lucy mumbled, with some worry.
"Erza-san" Wendy whispered, worried as well.
"You can do it, Erza!" Mirajane encouraged her.
"My true love…" Erza said slowly, clenching her fists, as everyone held their breaths.
"My true love, is cake! I TOTALLY LOVE CAKE!" Erza announced, with a loud voice, causing everyone to sweatdrop.
"I should have expected this" Lucy shook her head.
"Nice dodge, Erza! I underestimated you, but I'll get you next time!" Cana said, with a smirk, as Mirajane held out the cup once again.
"How nice! It looks like I'm the king this time! What to do now?" Mirajane wondered with a sweet smile, as she played with the stick.
"Oh, I know! Number three will have to purr like a kitty!" she decided.
"Eeh? That's harsh, Mira-nee!" Lisanna complained, as she looked behind Juvia, who was still sitting on her lap.
"So, it's you Lisanna! In that case, you need to use your Cat Soul Take Over for added image" Mirajane said simply.
"What?!" Lisanna suddenly got up, causing Juvia to fall on the floor.
"Ow! Juvia fell!" she groaned.
"Sorry about that, Juvia" Lisanna apologized, as she helped her get up, before turning towards Mirajane again.
"You can't change your previous order, Mira-nee!" she said, pointing her finger towards her.
"I'm not changing the order! I'm simply, improving it. And the king's orders are absolute!" Mirajane explained, with a singing voice.
"This is getting good!" Cana said, smirking.
"Mirajane is hard, even against her own sister!" Levy mumbled, impressed.
"Certainly. I guess she is even more dangerous than Erza, or Cana!" Lucy nodded in agreement.
"Fine then! I won't back down!" Lisanna said decisively, as she used her magic, partially taking a feline form. Her forearms were covered with striped patterns and feline like pads appeared on the surface of her palms, while sharp claws appearers on her fingertips. Small cat ears, whiskers and a long tale appeared as well, but the most notable difference was her outfit, which was now a two piece tiger skin bikini, as well as a collar with a small bell around her neck. Lisanna then fell on her knees, and started purring like a cat, moving her cat ears and tale.
"Oh, what a cute kitty!" Mirajane exclaimed, as everyone started laughing. Lisanna pouted for a moment, before she laughed as well.
"Let's continue to the next round then!" Erza said, as Mirajane held out the cup.
"That's what I'm talking about! King again!" Cana yelled excited.
"Cana again?" Lucy said with surprise.
"Okay, time to get serious! And I want no backing down! Here it goes. Number four must grope the breasts of number six!" Cana said, causing everyone to gasp.
"Damn it, Cana! You choose me again!" Erza said, clenching her fists, as she held out her number.
"Really? Hah, I told you I would get you, Erza! So, who is lucky number four?" Cana said with a wide smirk.
"Kyaah!" Wendy's voice suddenly came out, as she covered her face.
"I guess that answers your question" Mirajane said.
"Interesting! Come on Wendy, go for it!" Cana cheered on.
"I- I couldn't!" Wendy stammered, with a heavy blush.
"It's okay, Wendy! The orders must be obeyed. Come, I'm ready!" Erza said with a determined expression, as she stood up. Wendy got up as well, and walked slowly towards her, until she stood behind her back, with a deep shade of red on her face. She gulped hard, then shook her head, as if she had made her mind, and awkwardly grabbed Erza's breasts. Her small hands barely covered the ample breasts as she slowly rubbed them, as Erza let a small sigh escape her lips, before she could hold it. After a few moments, Wendy withdrew, letting out a heavy sigh, as she looked at her palms.
"So big and soft!" she mumbled, before looking down her own chest.
"Uwah! When am I going to get breasts like that?" she whined.
"Calm down, Wendy! You are still young! Soon you'll grow up, and then…" Levy tried to calm the younger girl, but her words stopped and her smile froze, once she looked down her own chest.
"Maybe, I shouldn't say anything more" she mumbled with a depressed expression.
"It's okay you two! You both have a more slender type! That's actually pretty cute!" Mirajane comforted the depressed girls.
"Mira-san!" both of them said with grateful expressions.
"You are too nice, Wendy! You should be more aggressive! Like this!" Cana said, as she suddenly grabbed Erza's breast in a much more aggressive way, and rubbed them roughly.
"Kyaah!" Erza yelped, in surprise.
"Did Erza just say Kyah?" Lucy mumbled.
"So it seems!" Juvia nodded.
"That was kinda cute!" Mirajane remarked.
"I'll get you for that, Cana!" Erza said under her breath, as Cana simply grinned behind her. The girls drew from the cup one more time, and Lucy was shocked at her pick.
"Lucy is the next king!" Lisanna said.
"I am? Okay, um, number two must give number five a piggy back ride across the room" Lucy said.
"Eh? Why Juvia again?" the blue haired girl whined.
"Come on, Juvia. I'll give you a ride across the room" Levy sighed, as she struggled to keep Juvia on her back.
"Juvia is embarrassed again!" she said.
"Can Levy really lift Juvia? I mean, she's so small" Cana wondered.
"How rude! Juvia is not fat!" Juvia yelled, exasperated.
"And I'm not small! I'm slender!" Levy said with the same expression. After she took her across the room, Mirajane held out the cup once more.
"I think we can do one more turn, before we call the night" she said. The girls agreed, and drew one more time.
"It seems I am the king this time! Let's see if I can make the right choice!" Erza said, as her eyes fell on Cana, who seemed slightly nervous.
"Number two must give number seven a kiss!" she said with a commanding voice, causing everyone to hold their breaths.
"Well, it seems I'm safe!" Cana sighed in relief, as she leaned back on the couch.
"I got number seven! Who's going to give me a kiss?" Mirajane said with a playful smirk, as everyone looked each other and checked their numbers. Slowly and with her head lowered, Lucy raised her hand. The white haired girl looked at her with surprise, and then a small smile formed on her lips.
"So it's you, Lucy" she said with a silent voice, as a pink shade graced her features. Lucy raised her head and looked at her for a moment, before she took a determined expression. Slowly, she crawled towards her, until they were mere inches apart.
"I got number two, Mira" she whispered.
"Go ahead then!" Mirajane encouraged her. The blond girl stared at her before she leaned closer, and gave a soft kiss on her cheek. She quickly got back to her place, as Mirajane put her hand on the spot that Lucy kissed her.
"I think that's enough for tonight" Erza said, breaking the silence that fell.
"I agree. I can barely keep my eyes open" Cana agreed, with a long yawn.
"Juvia is tired too! Juvia would like to go to bed now" the blue haired girl said, as everyone slowly got up.
"Goodnight everyone!" Mirajane said, as the other girls waved back, before one by one they got out of her room.
"I guess it's about time I get going too" Lucy said, as she moved towards the door.
"Lucy, wait!" Mirajane suddenly said, causing the blond girl to give her a wondering look.
"What is it, Mira? If it is about that kiss…" she started timidly, lowering her eyes.
"No, it's not about that" Mirajane shook her head.
"I was just thinking that it has gotten pretty late. All the other girls have rooms here, at Fairy Hills, but you live on your own. I wouldn't like you to get out at this time so, you spend the night here. What do you think?" she suggested.
"Spend the night, here? You mean, at your room, with you?" Lucy said slowly, her eyes wide with surprise.
"I, um… Are you sure about that? I mean, I don't even have my pajamas" she mumbled, with some uncertainty.
"Of course I'm sure, Sweetie! It's not like you haven't stayed in the same room with Erza before. Come on, it will be fun! And don't worry about your pajamas, I'm sure I have a pair that will fit you!" Mirajane said with excitement. Lucy looked towards her, and beamed gleefully.
"If you are sure, then fine! I'd really like to spend the night at your place!" she said. Mirajane smiled brightly.
"Come on then. Let me give you your nightwear" she said, as Lucy walked towards her with a joyful expression.
Author's note: There goes this chapter. I thought about having some humor, in addition to the romance in this chapter, so the idea for the King's Game came to my mind. The next chapter will focus a little more on the main pairing between Lucy and Mirajane, and I'm thinking about having another pairing as well. Anyway, I really hope you enjoyed this chapter. The next chapter will be updated soon. Until next time!
