(AN: I felt as though a part of Flip Flop was incomplete. Another point of view to be touched. So guess what, here it is! If you haven't read Flip Flop, don't worry about it as everything will be explained here for you to understand. Though the rating for this fanfic is raised for more leniency of creativity ~.o School has started up again and there is going to be some minor halts on postings but I hope to get out a chapter per week. Anyways, get on with the story! ~Dragon)
Rating: M
Genre: [Hurt/Comfort / Romance]
Characters: [Lucy x Natsu]
Summary: Something crazy happened to two of my best friends, but it also had an affect on me as well. Since they had some crazy adventure, then I did as well. Maybe it was just some crazy affect? Or maybe it was just always meant to be?
~~~Chapter 1: Pear Pressure~~~
"Natsu!" I yelled at the pinkette that dragged me into the latest brawl. The brawls have been out of control since Fairy Tail won the Grand Magic Games.
"Oi, Ice-Breath!" Natsu shouted, completely ignoring me. "Hey, where'd he go?! Gray?!"
"He went on a job, Natsu," Mira answered.
"Aw, man! Oi, Gajeel! Come over here! I gotta punch somethin' and your ugly face will have to do!" Natsu responded, bolting over to the iron eating brute in the corner.
"What'd you say, Fire-Head?!" Gajeel questioned as he joined the brawl with Natsu.
I sighed as I sat down at the bar exhausted. Mira giggled behind the bar and stated how active the guild was. Active was an understatement. Natsu was bouncing off the walls with the rest of the boys following his lead. Even Gray had to leave the guild it was that bad!
I asked Mira, "So, what job did Gray take?"
She replied happily, "He and Juvia took a search and rescue mission. It shouldn't take too long. I'm just happy they went together."
"Really? Usually I wouldn't ask, but since the guild is going crazy I might as well…" I began with a drunk Cana congratulating me before downing another barrel. I continued, "Fill me in with a little gossip, Mira."
The white haired bartender nearly jumped for joy and squealed excitedly. She announced, "Okay, so Gray was sitting in his usual spot here. His head on the counter, more bored than he's ever been. Juvia came up and offered to get away for a while and he accepted! They went right over to the job board, picked one out, and left. Gray and Juvia are just so cute, aren't they?!"
I agreed, "Yeah. I feel bad for Juvia since she has to wait for so long, but I can see where Gray's standing. You think he'd confess some day?"
"I sure hope so! Wouldn't that be wonderful?! I can almost see their babies now!" Mira chimmed.
"What about babies?" a voice questioned behind me, making me jump. It was Levy and I sighed in relief.
I answered, "Nothing, Mira was just getting a little carried away."
Levy giggled, "Just be glad that Juvia isn't here to hear that. She goes crazy just by the word. I couldn't imagine what would happen if Gray actually lets her in for once."
"What about you, Levy? Lucy? You ever think about kids?" Mira asked with that creepy happy smile she gets when she gets into shipper mode.
"No!" I exclaimed a little too loud and a bit too fast. My cheeks were pink for sure.
The bluenette next to me looked down at her feet, fidgeting with a bright red face. It was obvious that Mira knew the actual answer. Levy didn't even deny it. Great, time for Mira's shipper mode to turn on us.
The She-Devil declared, "With who?"
"That's my personal business," Levy pouted as she crossed her arms.
I played denial, "What do you mean? I never did that."
Mira looked skeptically and scolded, "Lucy, spill it."
I huffed, "Fine, one time before I joined Fairy Tail I thought Gray was hot. There, I said it. But it's not like I wanted to marry him. Please don't tell Juvia or Gray, I'm already on Juvia's kick list as it is."
It wasn't a lie… Before I met Natsu, I did kind of think that Gray was a really nice looking guy. But I guess since I got into Fairy Tail and met him, everything changed. It wasn't like I would've wanted him like that. And especially not now.
"Wow, didn't know you had such tastes, Lucy," Cana hicked.
"What do you mean?" I challenged the drunk.
Cana giggled and replied, "You had a thing for Gray before? What made him so special? He's cold, sometimes heartless, and was a horrible kisser."
I puffed out my cheeks embarrassed, "Like any young girl could resist abs that are never covered by a shirt. Besides, how would you know that he sucked at kissing?"
"Because I was his first kiss," she answered.
"You?" I questioned.
"Oh, yeah, you never told the story to Lucy," Levy commented.
Cana asked and explained, "Didn't I? Well, we were kids. Erza had a birthday party as she was turning thirteen. We played spin the bottle that night and I spun right on Gray. So we kissed, and that was our first."
I looked skeptically, "You played spin the bottle as pre-teens?"
"Yep, those were the good old days," Levy smiled. "Lisanna and Natsu had their first kiss that day too. After that, we played it a lot whenever we were all home from jobs. Jet and Droy were always trying to spin to me. It was fun."
"We should play again!" Mira exclaimed. "Like the good old days! I can set it up over in Fairy Hills and we can get everyone together tomorrow for a game or two!"
I shrunk in my seat. Everyone had their first kiss… But me. I'm not so sure that I want to lose it to a stupid game. It was with the Fairy Tail guys, so it wasn't like it would be someone I never knew… But…
Hesitantly I said, "I don't know…"
"Come on, Lu! It'll be a blast! Oh, I can't wait!" Levy cheered.
"Count me in!" Cana added.
I caved, "Sounds like fun!"
What was the worst that would happen? Right?
