For Lucy the day had only just started and she was already pissed, the reason for the anger came walking slowly behind making sure to stay clear.
As the Guild got into view Lucy kept the fast speed and arrived first not even looking back once. Letting her eyes run out over the half empty hall, she growled as Natsu tried talking to her and she quickly decided to sit somewhere else. Going past some tables she saw Bickslow alone and thought that he could only be better company right now, and she sat down in front of him.
A surprised Bickslow looked up from his coffee "Cosplay girl? what do I have to pay for your company?" it was a joke between them that he said everytime she joined him at a table, but unlike the other times she just huffed and placed her head on her hands "So we're mad this morning eh? What did Natsu do this time?" As he laughed, Lucy gave a hard glare and opened her mouth to answer when a tired looking Freed sat down beside Bickslow "Good morning I see you have joined today Lucy, did Natsu do something again?"
At the mention of the name a growl ripped from her throat as she remembered what had happened earlier "He insulted me in the middle of my shower!" Freed blinked a few times before he collected himself "What do you mean? were you two in there together?" a small annoyed voice came from her "Bath with him?! No way I would do that ever!" it was clear on her face that she meant every word, but before she could continue a deep voice talked "I take it you gave Natsu the big red mark on his left cheek?" Lucy just looked to the side as she huffed "Damn right I did! he deserved it"
Smiling Freed lifted his head "Ah good morning Laxus-san" said male sat down beside Lucy and leaned against the wall as he smirked at her "Do tell why.. It must have been bad since you slapped him and are sitting here" She sent Laxus a glare "If you really must know, he broke into my bathroom where I had just finished my shower and stepped out of the tub"
When Lucy stopped talking Laxus lifted an eyebrow "you mean to tell me that you got mad over that?" Lucy lowered her eyes as she placed her hands in the lap and murmured just high enough for them to hear "Natsu came running in and I think he slipped on something, because the next i know he's on top of me on the floor with his hands on my breasts" as she talked Laxus's jaw tensed and Freed's eyes moved between him and Lucy before he caught on to what was happening "And if that wasn't bad enough, he had the nerves to ask me if my breasts hadn't got bigger and that I should loose some weight"
At the end of her talking Laxus was fighting himself as he only wanted to beat Natsu up, and the thoughts of why he wanted to do that, he wasn't completely sure about though one look on Freed's face told that he knew what was going on. It almost seemed like Bickslow knew his thoughts because he stood up "be right back guys" as Bickslow left, Freed sighed "I understand why you got mad Lucy, but have you thought about if Natsu got feelings for you?" Looking up Lucy seemed a little confused as Laxus blinked and began paying attention "Why would he have that? His dating Lisanna"
A gasp came from Lucy as she looked up at a very surprised MiraJane there was just about to sit a milkshake down in front of her "I'm so sorry Mira! I promised Lisanna i wouldn't tell, but i really thought that you knew" A smile graced Mira's face "it's okay Lucy, but if you will excuse me I've something to take care off" Staring after Mira there was leaving the Guild dragging a scared Lisanna after her, a hand taking her milkshake got her to look to her right "just what are you doing? that's mine!"
As Laxus took a sip a huff left her but she didn't try and take it from him but the moment he sat it down, she had grabbed it and Laxus laughed "Cute blondie.. Didn't know you liked blueberries, I would have guessed on Strawberry" A small blushed graced her cheeks and as she took a sip of the milkshake Bickslow sat down with a big grin on his face, and almost as if Laxus knew what he had been doing, he shock his head as a small smile graced his lips. Lucy looked between the two clearly confused and as she sat down the milkshake, a loud yell from the doorway got everyone's attention.
"NATSU!" A very angry Erza could be seen walking towards Natsu and it was then that Lucy understood what Bickslow had done and a shocked look graced her face "you you.." As he laughed she turned to Laxus with an angry glare "You knew he would tell her!" Liking where the conversation was heading Laxus smirked and leaned forward towards her with a leg on each side of the bench "And why blondie would I know"
Just as he knew her anger rose "YOU!" growling low in her throat, Lucy didn't know how close she had got to him before she felt his breath on her face. Blinking a deep blush lit her face and when she was about to pull back a loud crash beside them had her jump in fright and before any of them could react their lips met. Freed looked shocked for a second before shaking his head and smiling as Laxus looked just as shocked as Lucy did but as Laxus was about to pull her closer she pushed him away as an angry voice spoke up.
"What are you doing to Lucy!" an upset Natsu stood up as he brushed off his cloth while Laxus just leaned back against the wall again rolling his eyes "I didn't do anything, she jumped at me" Lucy blushed even more and was about to argue back but quickly closed it again as she remembered that she indeed had done just that. Natsu's anger grew as he watch her blush and as she stayed silence he snapped and jumped at Laxus, there took it completely cool and simply hit him before Natsu could attack.
As Natsu had been knocked out, Erza stepped over him and stood in front of Lucy "Are you okay Lucy? I heard what happened" looking at the floor where Natsu was knocked out she felt a little better and nodded her head as she moved her sight back to Erza "yes I'm okay now, thank you" Smiling a nod came from Erza "that's good, but now to something else I have an easy job some towns away and I want you to tag along Lucy.."
A surprised blink came but some small seconds later Lucy smiled happily "Sure I would love to join Erza, is it just going to be you and me?" A nod from Erza confirmed it "yes just the two of us, I thought it was about time for a girl only trip. We leave now and don't worry we are back again later today" Lucy's eyes widen and she stood up forgetting about everything else.
"Okay then lets go.." Turning her upper body she smiled at the guys as her eyes shortly met with Laxus's "Thanks guys, I'll see you later, oh and Bickslow you can have the drink" A grin came from him and he happily took the glass as Lucy chuckled and walked away with Erza "Have a good day you three" just when they were passing through the doors, she felt eyes on her back and as she turned her head she saw Laxus staring after her and she turned her head quickly as a small blush lit her cheeks. A raised eyebrow from Erza got her to speed up to catch up and as they left for the station Lucy knew Erza would ask questions that she wasn't sure she could answer yet..
