NaLu Paradise - Chapter 1

~Simple Observation~

Lucy's sitting on the bench longer than usual. She's been observing someone without budging an inch at all.

"What have gotten into Lucy today..."said Cana.

"Why don't you go ask her, maybe she has some problem or something" said Mirajane who happen to pass by. Cana replied with a quick and simple smile.

"Yes". Cana thought herself 'Hmm... she is very...very weird today'.

Cana waved her hand a few times to snap Lucy out of whatever she was doing.

"No response?". Cana stood up and sat beside Lucy and observe where exactly is her eyes focusing on.

"Aha! I see...". Lucy startled and fell down the bench.

"Oh, it's you Cana... Since when where you sitting beside me..."said Lucy with a rather soft voice.

"Don't act like nothing happened. Why are you looking at him?" "At who.." Lucy blushed a bit. "Natsu!" yelled Cana.

The guild was surprised of Cana's voice. Everyone looked at Cana with a devious look.

"Nothing... I was just saying umm.. uh.. that Team Natsu was just too good.. You know with Natsu, Erza, Gray, Lucy..."

"Don't forget me too!" interrupted Happy.

"Actually the team is better off without you, Happy" said Natsu.

"How could you, I'll never share my fish again with you Natsu! N-E-V-E-R... NEVER!"

Soon the guild returned to its original state, noisy and lively as always.

"Lucy, follow me.." ordered Cana while pulling Lucy's arm.

"Huh? Where to?"replied Lucy.

"Just do what I say... please just for a while"

"Okay.. I guess"


Cana and Lucy went outside of the guild and took a stroll in town.

"Where are you taking me?" asked Lucy.

"Somewhere private and further than the guild.. "

The two girls enter a cafe' and ordered some cups of tea.

"What is it that you wanted to talk to me about, Cana?" said Lucy with a cheerful tone likely to hide 'it'.

A waitress then came and served the cups of tea that they ordered.

"Admit that you like him, Lucy" "L-L-Li-like who..." replied Lucy with a slight blush on her cheeks.

"Natsu of course, I observed you a while ago at the guild. Your eyes was focusing at him.."

There was silence for a while...

"Y-Yes...Yes, I do like him..." said Lucy with her whole face red!

"I thought so... now there it's not wrong to fall in love with someone in the same guild..." "

I know... But I just can't say it to him...E-Every.. t-time.. he smiles..."

"Aha, I'm listening to you.." said Cana with a rather teasing voice. "...It makes my heart pound very fast..."

"Like how?" asked Cana.

"Like right now... ugh... I'm so embarrassed..." said Lucy with her face looking towards the floor.

"That's all I wanted to hear...so let's get back to the guild, shall we?"

"Cana, will you keep this as a secret between you and me.." Cana looked at Lucy for a while...

"Sure thing, no worries..."

"Th-Thank... you..."

'Teasing people who are in love sure is fun..' whispered Cana to herself with a small grin.
