A:N/Hey guys so it's GraLu week and for the next week, until the 21st I shall try to post a GraLu fic every day in celebration of the event.
So please enjoy this small one shot I put together tonight and await the new chapter tomorrow.
In all honesty today was going to be a very bad day. Lucy had been dreading this day for the past week and now it was upon her. Letting out a very loud groan, she fidgeted with her bangs which also didn't want to cooperate. Even her reflection was mocking her, brown eyes dripping with embarrassment and humiliation.
She really wished she hadn't lost that competition.
Her cheeks itched as she grabbed a tube of black eyeliner and drew long black whiskers on with a steady hand. Her nose was a little black button and it looked absolutely ridiculous. Large floppy pink ears hung in her face and irritated her skin immensely. Fleecy and pink her entire body was swathed in a large, hideous bunny costume and Lucy felt like screaming.
Gray was going to pay for this one! Never in her entire seventeen years had she dreaded something more than this day. For in less than an hour she was expected to be outside Fluffy Minxe's cafe for some 'refreshed advertising'. This was all Gray's fault, he accidentally brought up the idea in front of the manager whilst they were there and the manager was so excited he nearly peed himself!
Of course Lucy had refused on the spot but then Gray proposed a challenge she just couldn't turn down.
A challenge so up her alley Lucy thought she might have invented it; a dancing competition. Now most people didn't know this about her but Lucy loved to dance and she was good at it. So when Gray posed the challenge she obviously couldn't turn it down.
Unfortunately for her Gray had been withholding a important piece of information.
That he could dance!
Not only had he won the competition by a landslide he had about twenty girls flock him for the rest of the afternoon.
Huffing heatedly Lucy stomped over to her apartment door, revenge fresh in her mind. Gray wasn't the only one who could play dirty. Lucy had a little trick up her sleeve and she was more than excited to show it off. Cackling sinisterly to herself Lucy grabbed her keys and belt then hurried out the door, little bunny tail hopping the whole way.
The cafe was already swarming busy, people lining up outside just to get in. Lucy arrived right on time and she immediately spotted Gray. He was sitting comfortably in a recliner chair on the outside patio, sipping a tall pink lemonade.
He looked devilishly handsome, dark shades and well a fitted t shirt and shorts he looked like an oasis in a sweltering desert. Lucy kicked herself mentally and reminded herself today he was the enemy.
Storming onward she spotted the manager whose bright pink hair was a dead give away. Completely ignoring Gray she bee-lined for him, face sour.
"Oh hello Lucy dear," he giggled upon her arrival, "you look absolutely adorable in that! You're going to attract a lot of attention!"
"Yeah unwanted attention." Lucy muttered under her breath.
The manager pretend to not hear that comment and continued talking. "So you'll be stationed out here for the next three hours so please keep hydrated!" He flashed her a practised smile, "you'll need it! Anyways I gotta get back inside but here take these!" He thrust two hot pink pom poms into her hands, "good luck sweetie! See you in three!" Blowing her a kiss he hustled back inside, disappearing.
Lucy stared at the pom poms and felt her teeth clench, now hell begins. Once again completely ignoring Gray's presence Lucy went to stand on the street corner, a fake smile plastered on her face.
"Come on in everybody! Minx's is the way to go on a hot summer day!" Lucy cheered, flapping her arms wildly, twirling around and dancing.
Gray snorted loudly behind her, barley containing himself as he slurped back his lemonade. Lucy's face grew warm and she continued to remain oblivious to his presence.
It was only a matter of time before her revenge came!
An hour passed, Lucy was beginning to grow tired of smiling and began to sing and cheer, waving at cute boys and winking at them once and again.
Let Gray be jealous, she thought to herself, he deserves it after this hell!
It was just about one and Lucy knew it was time to initiate the master plan. Beaming to herself, Lucy grabbed the zipper at the top of the suit and quickly slide out of it. Once off it revealed a strapless bikini, covered in tiny little bunnies with two white bunnies ears glued to a head band perked cheerfully upon her styled hair. Talk about bunny sex appeal! Unable to keep herself from peeking at Gray, Lucy looked over her shoulder to gauge his expression. Slack jawed, glasses gone, stormy eyes shocked, cheeks tinged pink. All in all his reaction was priceless, now the real fun begins!
Lucy began to cheer louder, jumping around, voice a sweet, purposely seductive singsong. Almost instantly boys from all around began hawking around the place, smiling sweetly at her and enjoying the view. Some even stopped to talk to her, asking her what her name was and for her number. At first Lucy was tempted to say no, she was dating Gray.
But, she could feel his jealously and that made her want to indulge the boys so she willingly slipped them her number.
"Call me whenever," She said with a wink, "I'm always around."
The boys nodded wildly, eyes wide as the walked into the cafe in a daze. Lucy chuckled to herself naughtily, she wondered how far she could push him before he snapped. Once again she cautiously cast him a look, too curious not too. His teeth were clenched, hands balled in fists and eyes positively wild. He looked like he was trying his hardest not to turn all the boys in line into popsicles.
Only a bit more, Lucy thought to herself, celebrating mentally. Never again would he dare show her up like this! Just as Lucy was about to head over there and give him a kiss on the cheek and ask him if he'd ever embarrass her like this again a large man appeared in front of her.
"Hey bunny girl," he purred, thick fingers stroking down the length of her arm. "Even in that tiny bikini you look a little hot, wanna come back to my place and cool off?"
Lucy looked up at the stranger and frowned. Large and muscular he towered over her, shaved head and a nasty scar cutting across his cheek he didn't really look like the friendly type.
"Not today," she said politely, shaking her head. "I'm working."
He chuckled darkly, huge hand clasping around her left wrist, "yes you're working me very well." He grunted huskily, hot breath pouring down her face. "Now I suggest you come along now before things get messy."
Lucy looked up at him indignantly, eyes narrowing. "Let me go!" She snapped, pulling against his grip.
He shook his head, "not until you help me out a little bit, my bunny princess. Dressed like that I can't help but want to bring you home for a little special feature."
A clatter of chairs sounded through the air and then the sudden shock of ice bit at warmed sky. Instantly Lucy's harasser was turned into humanoid iceberg. Lucy jumped away from him, arms wrapping around herself in fright.
Gray appeared at her side, scowling loudly, eyes icy. "Sick bastard." He grunted, kicking the solid ice in disgust, lips tight.
Lucy looked up at him sheepishly, "I guess I was kinda asking for that to happen. I was being stupid." She whispered guilty.
Gray looked down at her thoughtfully, "no." He said quietly, wrapping his arms around her. "No one is ever asking to be harassed." His voice was soft and his solid hands rubbed calming circles into her back.
Lucy smiled, tears brimming in her eyes. Looking up at him she couldn't help but let her smile grow, silent tears sliding down her cheeks.
"Yeah, you're right. Now that this is over with let's go home. I'm itching to be back in some cozy pyjamas."
Gray grinned cheekily, kissing her forehead quickly. "Whatever you say bunny girl."
Lucy groaned, shoving him playfully, "not you too!"
Gray shrugged jokingly, following her lead as the walked home. "You were the one who brought the sexy swimsuit."
Lucy huffed, rolling her eyes. "I only brought it because that other suit looked ridiculous."
"Ridiculously cute." Gray disagreed, hands in his pant pockets, eyes gazing down at her.
Lucy snorted, "whatever you say. I'm dressing you up as a full size penguin when we get home!"
Gray mulled this over, "that's actually quite fitting."
Lucy laughed loudly, "I'm glad you think so because I signed you up to fill in as Puddles the Penguin for Animal Kingdom on Ice next weekend."
Gray almost chocked on his tongue, "you did what?!" He yelled in indignation.
"Yeah I thought it seemed like a good idea after what I went through today. Ya know as payback."
Gray glared down at her, eyes flashing.
" Aw come on, you'll surely make an adorable Puddles the Penguin."
So thanks for reading. The message or w.e behind this story is something that I think is important. No means no. So if you don't have consent, doesn't matter if she's half naked, a woman ((or man)) is NEVER asking for it.
EVER.
Please keep this in mind and be safe out there.
Anyways, thanks for reading please review, favourite and follow.
There will be more tomorrow!
Goodnight!
