Title: My Locked-up Heart
-Loke and Lucy Love Story-
Summary:
Lucy Heartfilia had poured her dreams into planning the trip of a lifetime. Only trouble was, her locked-up heart was being opened by a handsome stranger.
Loke Estrella was escaping the nerved-cracking expectations of his father Luigi Estrella. He was the only son of a proud and prosperous Estrella Family.
By being with Lucy, he was breaking the rules. Happy-ever–after wasn't in his vocabulary, yet he couldn't take his eyes off the beautiful maiden. For the first time, he had something that money couldn't buy – a woman who loves him for who he really is.
I do not own Fairy Tail!
But I'm willing to adopt the sexy handsome Lion
Chapter 1: Meetings
"What on earth do you think you're doing?"
Loke whirled around at the sound of the woman's voice. Tall and sexy with her golden hair flowing around her milkfish skin, she stood with her fists propped on her hips. Her features were both beautiful and elegant, her figure slender, model-like. She had the widest chocolate eyes with long lashes, paired with a pair of lush, dark and extremely kissable lips. But right now, her beautiful face had morphed into a mask of confusion and annoyance.
"Who are you? State your name and business, or I'm going to call the police!" She threatened.
He couldn't blame her. Even he had to admit it himself, what he was doing looked odd.
"I'm not a bad guy Miss," He tried to persuade her. "There's a perfectly good explanation for my behavior."
She raised a brow, skeptism written all over her face, "A complete total stranger. Bare-footed. In my best friend's garden."
He laughed, "I assure you, I'm not crazy."
Though, the last few weeks had driven him near to insanity, really. He had already been pushed past his point.
"Being barefoot, in my best friend's lawn," She continued once more, "In the middle of a bright summer day! This is absolutely nuts. I'm calling the cops."
"Wait," He stepped forward, but thought better of it and backed up. "Hmm, you must be..."
Usually he was good with names and faces, but this time he couldn't come up with this lady's.
"You're one of the bride's best friends, aren't you?" He somehow managed to continue smoothly.
"Wait... How do you know who I am?"
Loke gave her an assessing glance, avoiding the question, "What made you so disagreeable?"
She sighed and lowered the phone she had lifted to press against her cheek when she made the threat about calling the cops.
"I've had a rough day. A rough life and –" She cut herself off again. "How did you do that? Forget it, I'm not telling you a single thing about me."
"Listen, I'll just get out of here and leave you alone since I've clearly come at a bad time," He picked up his shoes and started to leave.
"Wait," She said quickly, and he turned back for a second.
For a moment, Loke swore there was a spark of intuition - one that had driven him to this town.
Then, just as quickly, it was gone, and the spark of distrust had returned.
"You..." She continued, "You still haven't told me the reason why you're standing barefoot in my best friend's garden!"
Loke's jaw clenched, "We're back to that again?"
"When did we ever leave that topic?" She snorted as she lifted her hands to rest them on her hips again, her cell phone in one hand.
He had no intentions of telling anyone anything. In particular, the lady right here, Levy's best friend.
Lucy Heartfilia. That was her name. Bunny girl, Gajeel called her, and her name meant Light
Before she could question him further, he quickened his steps over to his little blue rental car.
Lucy followed him, determination on her face.
"You still haven't answered my question. Who are you? Why are you here?"
"That's two questions, and I don't have to tell you anything, either. It's a free country."
He could almost hear her scream in frustration. Oh, this was going to be fun.
She scowled, "Trespassing is a crime, you know."
He grinned. When he'd book this trip, he had no idea there'd be a fringe of benefit from it.
"Only if you are not invited. And I was invited." He paused a bit, watching her eyes widen in surprise at the word invited, waiting to deliver the last punch of surprise. "I'm the best man after all.''
And….
"You have a bad taste in friends," Lucy declared. "He's weird! He walks barefoot! A total weirdo!"
Gajeel Redfox, Levy's fiancée burst into peals of laughter.
"te hee Bunny girl, you need to give Loke the benefit of the doubt," Loke told her. "He's not so bad once you get to know him, and he has his reasons for being barefoot in Levy's garden."
"Where did you meet him anyway," She snorted, crossing her arms. "Prison?"
"College. He's my classmate in my few classes. And he's-" Gajeel cut himself off, "He's a good guy. Just trust me on that."
"Erza-chan there you are!" Lucy pouted. "We missed you so much, right Levy-chan?"
"We're going to help Levy-chan to prepare for her wedding day?" Lucy asked.
"Definitely, Lucy!" Erza smiled.
"T-thanks so much, Lu-chan, Erza-chan," Levy sobbed a little as the tears built up, pulling her two best friends into a tight hug.
After they finally stopped squeezing the air out of each other, Erza turned to Lucy.
"Lucy-chan, how's your love life," Erza innocently asked.
Levy giggled a little.
Lucy blushed, "I-I don't have one. I haven't met my Mr. Right!"
"What about Hibiki-kun?"
"He's kind, sweet and innocent young man and he really loves you Lu-chan," Levy added.
"I do like him, the way I like you, Levy-chan and Erza-chan..." Lucy said, lowering her eyes to the ground. "He's just a good friend of mine, nothing less, nothing more..."
"Alright," Levy sighed. "Let's drop the subject."
"Lucy" Erza called.
"Yes, Erza-chan?" Lucy turned to her friend.
"What were you and Gajeel talking about?"
"Oh, about his friend, Loke. You know, he's nuts. I thought he was a criminal of some sort, walking barefoot in your garden. He's such a freak."
"Oh, sounds like you're in love~" Levy teased.
"What! Are you making fun of me?" Lucy pouted.
"It could be possible!" Erza pouted back.
"How about you and Jellal-kun?" Lucy smirked.
Levy smiled sweetly while nodding, "Yes, yes, you look so happy, Erza!"
"Ummm, we're doing good... and I'm so happy because he cares for me!" Erza answered, blushing a little. "I know he loves me so much..."
"Right," Levy agreed. "Having Gajeel-kun by my side, I felt so content... So loved and secure."
I can't wait to fall in love, Lucy thought. But falling in love instantly is dangerous... I have to be careful with my heart... She added quietly.
"Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was a choice, but falling in love with you was beyond my control."
