AN: yo's everyone! So I made this story for a certain someone who requested me to make it! It was lots of fun and im sorry for the wait Dx I hope the story comes out nicely and this is AU setting, and its my first time writing a Fairytail fanfic so if I make it OOC I apologize Dx alrighty, who wants to hear me blabber? On with the story!

"Ugh, god I am so freaking tired. A beautiful girl like me shouldn't have to work so hard..." Lucy complained as she got out of her part time job. After working so "hard", she was ready to hit the hot tub.

She grabbed her keys and opened the door to her house and all was quiet. Lucy sighed in relief. No one to bother her.

Immediately she headed straight to the restroom to take a nice, warm, and steamy bath...ahh...just thinking about it made her woozy.

Forty five minutes later...

"Ahh that felt so good. Now a good night's sleep is all I need," She grinned to herself and went to her room in a towel.

What she saw next made her want to jump off a twenty-storey building," EEK! Natsu! Just what do you think you're doing?!" She screeched and covered up her chest with her face resembling the color of a tomato.

Natsu was happily napping away on Lucy's bed while she screamed her head off, bursting his snoring bubble," Huh? Oh hey Lucy! I seriously thought you were never going to come home! Did you have an overtime today or what?" He babbled endlessly. Natsu stretched out and grinned.

"No I did not have an overtime! And just what the heck are you doing here?! IN! MY! BED!" She squealed half embarrassed, half angry. But mostly angry. There went her peace.

"Sleeping. Duh. I had to wait at least-" he glanced at a clock, "three hours, twenty-seven minutes, and fourteen seconds."

Lucy eye twitched,"DOES IT LOOK LIKE I CARE?!"

"Um, you look more angry," Natsu commented.

"That's because I am! NOW GET OUT!" She yelled. Obviously she had a temper tantrum over this and kicked him litterly out of the house.

"But-"

"Out!" She slammed the door in his face.

Natsu stared at the foot as he stood outside on the cool, almost winter night,"I have to tell you something important..." He murmured, knowing she couldn't hear him.

So he decided to go home. It would do no good if he became a frozen glacier. And it reminded him of a certain someone.

~o~o~o~o~

Lucy groaned. Here she was at work so she could pay her rent. It was a maid cafe.

Natsu was with her like usual. It was annoying, but Lucy thought of him as a very close friend.

"So when do you get out of work?" Natsu yawned.

"Few hours. You can go home if you want," She said, hoping he'd go away.

"Eh. I'll wait. Something...important..." he said, mumbling on the last part.

Lucy shot him a confused expression but no reply came as he sat in a relaxed position.

"Can I have something to eat for free?" Natsu asked.

"You can have water," she remarked.

The pink-haired teen sighed, "Don't go around eating other people's order though!" She snipped,"You did that last time and I'm surprised the manager didn't ban you from this place!"

"It's a cafe! Full of food! You know I can't help it..." He protested.

Lucy once again, sighed. This guy was hopeless.

It's been a while already so most of everyone was pretty much gone now.

"Oh hey, I gotta go to the bathroom. I'll be right back!" Natsu said suddenly.

"All right! Take your sweet time!" Lucy called out. Boy, was she glad he was gone.

Just as he left, a chime rang off indicating that someone had entered the cafe so she came up to greet the customer,"Hello! Welcome to the Treats Cafe! How can I help you?" Lucy cheerily welcomed the man and made a feminine pose that wasn't too explicit nor too little of it.

The man sat down. When he did, Lucy stared at him, He had raven-colored hair with a deep depth of blue in his eyes.

He wore saggy dark green jeans added with a casual dark colored T-shirt.

Noticeably, he had had a lean body and well built muscles.

As far as she could tell, he was an attractive young teenager about her age.

"Just get me coconut bubble tea," His voice rang deeply.

Lucy realized that she was staring at him. Her cheeks lit up to a rosy pink,"O-of course! Right away!" Then she ran off embarrassed.

Wait. Why the heck was she blushing? It should be her seducing him! Not the other way around!

She quickly did his order and walked back out to see his face. Lucy at first, went in dignified, but as soon as she set her sight on him, she immediately melted into a cherry-colored maid.

"Um...here you go," She mumbled, not happy that her attempt failed.

"Thank you," He took it and started sipping.

"I'm back! Sorry to take so long!" A familiar voice called out.

"Oh no," Lucy thought. Natsu was going to make a fool out of her.

He ran out, smiling his silly one as usual," So what'd I miss?"

Lucy opened her mouth to say something, but she could think of nothing to say.

Perhaps fortunate or unfortunate for Lucy, when Natsu and then raven-haired teen saw each other, pointed fingers were sent to the other.

"What the hell are you doing here?!" Natsu yelled at him.

"I should be asking you the same thing!" The other male scowled.

Lucy watched in disbelief. The two boys started fighting each other litterly. She could see sparks surrounding the air around them from their intensity of their fighting.

"U-um..." Lucy stuck out a hand, unsure how to stop them without intervening physically,"Could the both of you please stop? It's a cafe, not a wrestling ring!"

Obviously the two boys were too caught up to pay any attention to her. So she stood there like an idiot until the manager came out to stop them.

~o~o~o~

"Oh my god! The two of you got me in trouble with the manager! Couldn't the either of you control your temper?!" Lucy scolded them while she herself was screaming after she got off her shift. Which was right after all the commotion.

"You're the one to talk. Yelling at us..." The unnamed male sweatdropped.

"Shut up!" She continued to shriek. But to her blind temper, the blonde didn't notice that she had went up to his face until a second later. When she saw this, the teen swiftly pulled back, face flushed.

While she had a good look at him, Lucy had his image stuck in her head. Dark blue eyes that looked much like the murky blue sea...

"SNAP OUT OF IT, LUCY!" she said to herself.

"Anyways...who are you?"
