"Huuh." Lucy sighed, walking down the street dejectedly. "Another day , Another rejection..." Unfortunately this was common for Lucy Heartfilia. As hard as she tried, it was difficult to get a good job in this day and age.
She walked past Fairy Tail Ice Cream Parlor only to find herself backtracking. She looked at the window and saw a "Help Wanted" sign. This could be my chance! But do I really want to work at an ice cream parlor? I'm not that desperate!
She resumed walking down the sidewalk while wandering aimlessly, pondering on the job opportunity. She ended up sitting on a park bench. As she began to doze off, the annoying Fairy Tail Ice Cream truck melody blasted her ears, shocking her back into reality.
The truck pulled to a stop behind her. All the sudden she heard, "Oi! Lady! Ya wanna buy some ice cream?"
Lucy's head snapped in the direction of the anonymous voice to see a pink-haired teen with a goofy grin.
"No thanks." She replied dryly.
"Why not? Everyone likes ice cream!"
"So? I'm not everyone. I don't want any ice cream right now!"
"But you can't refuse ice cream! Especially when it's from Fairy Tail!"
"You know, I could care less what brand it is because I don't want any!"
"Please?"
"No."
"Pretty please?"
"No."
"Pretty please with tabasco sauce, habanero peppers, and spicy potatoes on top?"
"What the heck, no!"
"Aww come on!"
"Would you just leave me alone?!"
"Not until you buy some ice cream."
"Fine! How much?"
"Any kind you want for 3 dollars."
"What flavors?"
"Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, Rocky Road, Cookies 'N Crea-"
"You know what, just surprise me." She said shoving her money in the pink haired teen's face.
"Okay." he said going to the back of the truck to retrieve an ice cream. "Here you
are ma'am!" He handed her a green ice cream cone. She took a lick or two with a puzzled face. Then she took a long lick and spit it out.
"Ew! What flavor is this?!"
"Wasabi!"
"What the heck? Who makes ice cream flavors like that?"
"That's Fairy Tail for ya! That flavor was discontinued though..."
" Why the heck do you have any then?!"
" Because its my favorite flavor, duh!"
" And you decided to give me some why?"
He shrugged and flashed her a grin. " You said, and I quote, 'You know what, just surprise me.' " He said in a mocking tone.
She handed him back the cone with one last look of disgust.
" Some surprise. I'm pretty sure you're the only person who would actually like that." Lucy said, laughing a little. "Well thank for kind of cheering me up," She turned to walk away.
" Hey wait you! What's your name? I'm Natsu Dragneel."
" It's Lucy. Lucy Heartfilia." She smiled.
" Well Luigi, if you come back tomorrow I'll give you another ice cream cone for free to make up for the wasabi one!"
She glared at him. " IT'S LUCY! AND DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATH!"
Lucy heard him laughing in the background as she stomped away, fuming.
Natsu, huh? She thought as she paused in front of her apartment, turning the key. What a weird ice-cream man...
Stepping inside, Lucy smiled in spite herself. Maybe I might go back tomorrow... But not to see him again! No way! After all, it could be a totally different employee... It's just for the free ice-cream..
And if he WAS there, then well... she wouldn't complain all that much.
