Hey Guys! Yes, it is yet another random cross-over fanfic from yours truly, Happy_The_Cat!
OH! By the way, I kind of suck at writing romance :3
I was inspired by another Fairy Tail X Devil May Cry for this, so enjoy!

Lucy slowly opened her eyes. Her whole body cried out in pain as she struggled to remember what had happened. Right. She had taken a job by herself, since Natsu and Happy had gone out fishing for the day, Erza was off at the blacksmith asking about new swords and armors, and only god knew where Gray was, probably hiding from Juvia. The job seemed simple enough. Kill the monster, claim the reward. The standard procedure. Lucy's mind flashed forward in a throb of pain. A giant, silver claw, slashing through the air towards her, almost as if in slow motion, time speeding up again as it hit her, her small body being flung like a rag doll, smashing into a tree, and that's where her memory ended.
Ignoring her body's screams of protest, Lucy sat up, and looked around. She seemed to be in a filthy house or shop, with an old looking jukebox, a pool table, a desk and chair and a couch that she was lying on. As she moved to get up, her legs caught on something. She blinked down in confusion.
A red coat?
"Ah! Good, you're awake!"
Lucy turned quickly to locate the body to match the voice. There, standing the doorway with a can of beer was a tall, white-haired, rather good-looking man. Lucy blushed lightly, as she did with just about everything. She quickly snapped out of it and stood up, clenching her teeth in pain, taking a quick breath in and hoped he wouldn't notice.
"Ah, yeah."
"So, who are you?" Lucy blinked in confusion. Shouldn't that be her line?
"Lucy. Lucy Heartfillia. And you?"
"Dante, just Dante" he smirked at her, coming closer.
"So, Lucy Heartfillia, what can Devil May Cry do for you?"
"Huh?" Lucy asked stupidly.
"You didn't go fighting that demon to meet me?" Dante asked.
"No….I went to fight the monster for the reward" Lucy replied, looking at him suspiciously as she slowly walked over.
"Oh. Well then, If you're not in need of my services then you can go, I guess" Dante said rudely.
"I suppose so. How do I get to Fairy Tail from here?" Lucy answered back, putting on a high-and-mighty act to match his rudeness, crossing her arms.
"Fairy Tail? You've obviously not from this part of town, girly" he taunted her.
"Obviously. So are you going to give me directions or not? And don't call me girly!" she huffed, starting to tremble ever so slightly from the pain, digging her fingers into her arms to try and stop herself from shaking. She needed to get back quick and have Wendy heal her up a bit. And fast.
"Not. I'll take you there myself" he grinned. Grabbing his coat from the couch and pulling it on and heading for the door.
"Eh?" Lucy asked stupidly, her act falling away as her doe brown eyes followed him to the door as he opened it, motioning for her to step outside, as a doorman would.
Lucy slowly walked out the door, trying her best to act as if her whole body didn't feel as if it were engulfed in Natsu's flames. As she stepped down the grimy stairs, she stopped as she saw the red '67 Impala (I don't know what Dante's car actually is, I just like that Impala model) she blinked in confusion.
'Why would someone running such a crummy shop have such a beautiful car?' She thought to herself as Dante gave her a light nudge to get her back moving down the stairs, never once taking her eyes off the car.
"So, you like my car, do you?" Dante said, his rough voice shaking her out of her daydreams.
"Yeah, it's beautiful" she mumbled peeking inside the windows.
"Well, what're you waiting for? Get in" she said, his usual rude air about him as he got in the driver's seat. Lucy slid into the passenger's seat and sat as still as possible, to keep her pain from spreading any more than needed.
With a flick of the key, the car started up, and they were off.
