Never have guessed.
Chapter one. - The contract.
(Lucy's Pov)
I walked into the office. I was told to meet Mr. Fernandez at his office. I hadn't been in his office since my interview for this job. I knocked on the door and he let me in.
"Hello, Lucy." I smiled and sat down on one of the chairs. I replied "hello".
"We all know that, you are the best Accountant, we have here in FTE. We have had an offer, that we really can't refuse. It's a deal with SE. They want to create a Housing Estate, and a shopping mall, we basicailly they want to build a new town in some sense." I nodded at what he was saying. Sabertooth Estate was known for building and they had a good reputation apart from employing cocky jerks they were one of the bes estate companys around here. Apart from Fairy Tail Estates. "But they need more funding and we happen to have enough funding to give them. So the village will be done by them, with our money and we will spilt the profits in two." He continued. I again nodded, this was seriously an offer he couldn't refuse. This would proably rise the profits to our company 5 Percent. Which is alot cpnsidering the recent resession. "The only down side is for you." I gave him a worried look. "What's the downside?" I asked. He sighed and took out the contract. HE passed it over to me and i quickly scanned through it. Untill i stopped at a point. "The best accountant's from each company have to work together to make sure the profits are made and that the town doesn't fail. The two accountants will be responsable for the money, where it will be sent to improve the town and they will not have any imput fom anyone else apart from there partner." I read aloud. Well, that doesn't seem so bad. What does he mean by 'Downside'. "Lucy, i am putting you up for the job." He said. I felt a smile form on my lips. "They have chosen Sting Eucliffe." And there's the downside. He used to work for us untill he got too cocky and left for sabertooth. He is also my cousin's ex. This ought to be fun. Not. But I still agreed to do the job. It was a big opertunity and i wasn't going to turn it down for some stupid tiger. (Yes we call people from Sabertooth estates 'tigers'. I don't know why but They call us 'faries' so... )
Mr. Fernandez gave me all of the documents and showed me to my new desk. It was in a room, all by it's self. He told me, I could put pictures on the walls, along with my diplomas. I nodded and gathered the stuff from my old desk. I put everything in the new room. I looked on the door to find my name. 'Lucy Heartfillia.'
"You have 2 Hours to decorate how you like and Then mr. Eucliffe will be here, To discuss the contract and extra details." I nodded. "Thanks Mr. Fernandez." I smiled.
"Call me Jellal, We are friends now, right?" He asked with his cute smile, I couldn't help but laugh a little and nodded. I hugged him and then he left. So I began Putting My diplomas on the wall. I had 5, For a number of things. Mostly Acadamic. I put some pics of my friends on the wall. They were studying in America for a bit, I missed them loads. The only one who didn't go to Yale was Gray. He came here with me. He's like my brother. And then there's my brother. Luxus. He unfourtantly likes in the same building as me. So he's always checking up on me. I placed the pics on the wall, I smiled at memories. Memories that i could never forget. About them. The bestest friends I ever had. I sat down and turned the computer on. I began reading some of the documents that Jellal gave me. Then there was a knock at the door. He was here, ALready. I got up and answered it.
"Hello." I greeted forcing a smile. He smiled and followed me into the office.
"Lucy, I didn't know I'd be working with you!" He sould happy but I just rolled my eyes, when i saw his Sly smile. How on earth did my cousin fall for such a jerk?! He isn't even cute... Ok maybe a little. I menatly slapped myself.
"Ok so, I was told we need to clarify the Contract." I began, He nodded and took some papers out of his bag. I smiled, he seemed to begin to concentrate. "So You take care of the funding and we take care of construction. The profits get halved and everyone's happy." Sting stated. I nodded. I handed him a pen and he signed both contracts. My copy and his. I did the same. "So Is there anything else we need to sort out today?" I asked putting the contract away in one of my draws. He shook his head. "Ok then, Well I guess, I'll see you tomorrow, to sort out the Funding details?" I asked. He nodded and stood up. "Thanks Luce, For not being funny about us working together, I know you and Mira were close." I nodded. "It's fine, What's done is done. I don't hold it against you. Just let's try and get on for the sake of both companies." I smiled I went to shake his hand but he pulled me into a hug. "Sting what are you doing?" I asked annoyed. He whispered in my ear " Apologizing." I hugged him back. After all, we were about to become Family before He and Mira cancelled the Wedding. To be honest, I don't exactly know what happened between them. At the time, I didn't want to get involved.
I pulled away from him and smiled. "Friends?" i asked him. Trying to act proffessional. He nodded. He went to the door and as he put his hand on the handle, he turned to face me. "How about we Do Lunch tomorrow, And talk about the Details then?" He asked. I thought about it. What harm can it do? I mean, it was a buisness lunch right? So I nodded. "I'll pick you up here, tomorrow then,at 12? ok?" He opened the door as i nodded my head. He smiled and left. Well he's changed. He's less of a jerk and less cocky than i remember ... But that was years ago. I mean, we've both grown up now.
I went home after work. I opened my door to find Luxus sitting in my apartement. I slammed the door to make sure he heard i was back. "What the Hell? Don't you have your own apartement just down the hall?!" I questioned as i put my bag down and took my jacket off. "Aww, I didn't know there was a law about coming over to visit my baby sis..." He ruffled my hair. I just stared at him. "There isn't but breaking in my apartement is againt the law.." I stated. He sighed and rolled his eyes. Then he left. Finally alone! After a long day at work.
I made something to eat and then i did the dishes. I went for a quick shower and then My phone rang.
{ Hello?

I put the phone down and fell on my bed. A tear escaped and fell down my face. I missed them all so much. They all meant so much to me. Me and Natsu were dating before he went to America. We promised each other to wait but I can't make him do that now. I'm sure I'll move on eventually. I mean me and Gray, have to stick together. I couldn't wait for this weekend. Our weekend. Of course tomorrow I'll tell him that natsu phoned. I won't tell Luxus though, He'll only bother me more than he does now...
Next Time : The 'date' About the contract between Sting and Lucy. Gray and Lucy's weekend Starts. Only this weekend won't end like the others.
