I walked to the guild, I could hear the commotion from the guild two blocks away, I smiled to myself as I continued to walk to the guild with Plue following me.
I opened the doors to the guild and ducked as a chair flew at me, I continued walking unfazed toward Levy, Erza, and MiraJane at the bar.
"Hey Lucy!" Levy said as she hugged me
"Hi Levy" I hugged her back and sat next to her at the bar.
"Good morning, Lucy" Erza said
"Morning." I smiled and ordered a glass of orange juice. Mira came back with my drink she placed it in front of me, and handed Erza a plate of strawberry cake.
"Isn't it kind of early for cake Erza?" I asked. Erza looked at me and glared "Its never to early for cake." I laughed nervously "Ok then."
"So what's new?" I asked Mira
Mira always had all the latest gossip around the guild
"Oh Mavis you won't believe what I heard apparently Romeo and Wendy are a couple! Isn't that just the cutest thing!"
"Really! That's great!" I was genuinely surprised by this Mira knew everything before I ever did.
"That is pretty cute" Levy said as she put her head on her hands. "What do you think Erza?"
"Romeo best not hurt Wendy" Erza said with a threatening look. She looked back down on her cake and her expression changed to delight as she happily stabbed the last bit a cake and shoved it into her mouth. We all laughed at Erza's reaction and went about talking amongst each other.
"So Lucy" Mira started, I took a sip of my drink "When are you and Natsu going to.. tie the knot?" I looked at her confused
"What do you mean?"
"Get married!" Mira said while jumping up and down. Erza and Levy looked at me expectantly. me and Natsu have been together for a little over two years. Ever since Elfman and Evergreen got married Mira has been planning everybody's weddings.
I sputtered and laughed thinking they were joking, I looked at everyone around me. They all had serious looks on there faces.
"Oh, you were serious?"
"Yeah Lu-chan."
I stuttered "I-I don't know, I m-mean we haven't talked about it."
"You haven't talked about your future at all?" Erza asked
"About the future, yeah. But not marriage!"
Levy cut in "Me and Gajeel talk marriage all the time and we've been dating for 2 years, just like you and Natsu."
Mira smiled "Are you talking about having kids too."
Levy turned red and started shaking her head "Whoa Mira, were talking about Lu-chan here."
"So you ARE talking about having kids" Mira prodded
"Mira! Can I get a drink over here please!" Macao yelled from across the bar
"Coming!" Mira said, she pointed to Levy and me "Were not done here." and she walked off
Levy sighed and looked over at me and Erza "So.."
"Lucy!" Natsu called I looked over at him and back at Mira who was at the other end of the bar. she waved and started walking toward us
"Oh shit! Natsu want to go on a job?" I didn't wait for his reply as I ran and grabbed a random job, grabbed his hand and ran out the door "Were taking this Mira!"
After I was sure we were a safe distance I started walking instead of running. Natsu quickly fell in step beside me never letting go of my hand. I quickly looked down at the request and skimmed over it. It was just to capture some bandits in the woods, on the out skirts of Magnolia so it wasn't to hard of a mission. Me and Natsu were walking toward the clients house which wasn't to far from the guild.
"What was that all about?" Natsu asked
"What was what about?" I asked pretending not to know what he was talking about, we had been walking for about 10 minutes
"Back at the guild" Natsu prodded
"Oh nothing, I just wanted to go on a job."
"That's it? It seemed like you were avoiding Mira."
"Nope nothing like that. We just need some jewels, especially if we want to buy food this week."
"Oh, okay!" Natsu said as he put his hands behind his head.
I sighed mentally as he dropped it so quickly.
"Luce now that you mention it I'm hungry, can we get food?"
I looked over at my dragon slayer boyfriend and sighed "Ok but you have to be quick we have to be at the clients house soon"
Natsu smiled his usual grin and kissed my cheek. I blushed "I love you, you weirdo." he said. before I could respond he grabbed my hand and practically dragged me toward a nearby café.
After Natsu had ate pretty much the whole menu, we started toward our destination.
An hour later of Natsu complaining about having a stomach ache and then 15 minutes of him complaining about being hungry again we finally made it to the house, but it was more like a shed. It was small and looked like it would collapse any minute. The house was just outside of the woods in the middle of nowhere. I knocked on the door carefully afraid it might fall over if I knocked any harder. I turned around "Be good, and don't talk." I pointed at him, Natsu put his hands up in surrender just as the door opened. A lady with blue hair walked out, she looked about her mid-20s, and she was short with brown eyes that were so dark they almost looked black.
"Hi." I started "Were here about-"
"About the bandits in the woods, yes I've been waiting." she said darkly
Me and Natsu stood there shocked neither of us speaking, but then again I did tell Natsu not to speak.
"Here's your reward, now go before they do anything else." she slammed the door closed, leaving me and Natsu alone and confused. I was surprised that the house didn't fall apart when she slammed it.
"Did that seem a little odd to you?" I asked Natsu as we started to walk away
Natsu nodded "yeah maybe"
"I mean we haven't even done the job yet and she gave us our reward?" I looked in the bag. Holy there was double in here then what we were suppose to get. I showed Natsu what was in the bag.
"Wow. She must really trust Fairy Tail to get this job done."
"Yeah I guess." I shook off my unease and me and Natsu headed into the woods.
