{It hurts so bad to know the truth, but I am still in love with you}
Lists
"So let's start off simple." Natsu suggested, leading Lucy further into the building. She trailed nervously, her eyes flickering over every little detail.
"Okay...Mira." She sniggered to herself. Natsu rolled his eyes, ticking one thing off his list.
"Here, sit down." Natsu instructed. What the hell am I doing? He panicked on the inside, slightly unnerved. Why was he pretending to be Mira? What would he think would happen?
Well, his sister had forced him to watch one of those mushy gushy movies, so he at least had an idea of what this chick wanted...
"So let's start off with: Why." Natsu started, pretending to type into the computer.
"Why?" Lucy asked in confusion, echoing him. Natsu nodded his head.
"Exactly." He answered, his black eyes trailing from her to the blank screen.
"Why? 'Why does no one love me?'" He mocked and bit his lip to hide his smirk, her eyes narrowing in annoyance.
"Whatever, I don't have time for this." She grumbled, crossing her legs.
"Don't be offended, we haven't pointed out your flaws yet." Natsu finally allowed his smirk to show, enjoying the facial expressions she was making.
"I have no flaws, thank you very much." She huffed in response. Well of course she had flaws-doesn't everyone?-she just didn't want to admit them to this pink haired bastard.
"Conceited." Natsu listed, his smirk in place.
"Why you-!"
"Short tempered."
"You ass-"
"Badmouthed."
"I'll kill y-"
"Murderous."
"Ugh!" She groaned loudly, wanting to choke the man in front of her. Natsu grinned, happy of her response.
"Just kidding, now let's really start, here..." Natsu thought quickly, what do girls like to talk about? Themselves, right?
"What do you...like about yourself?" He guessed. Whenever a girl came up to him, she'd always talk about what she's good at and stuff he didn't really care about.
"Oh that's easy." Lucy brightened, happy they had gotten serious.
"I like my eyes, my mouth, my intelligence, oh! Also how I can-"
"OH kay then!" Natsu exclaimed loudly, happy to cut the chattery blonde up. Ugh, she's boring.
"What do you like in men?" He asked instead, leaning his head on his fist, fighting off his sigh.
"Well I like gentlemen, of course. Guys that are sweet and go the extra mile-y'know? Who leaves me wanting more-not like that! Who'll leave roses at my door and love me for me. Preferably dark haired with light eyes-no! dark eyes.-no light! Actually I don't care." Lucy said cheerfully, thinking of more things she'd like to add.
"Oh great." Natsu sighed, realizing she was that kind of girl.
"Basically anyone but you, right?" This time it was her turn to smirk, brown eyes challenging. He lifted his head upright and met her smirk, black eyes mesmerizing her.
"Please, I don't want to date you, princess." He scoffed. Lucy ignored his jab, her eyes rolling dismissively.
"Whatever, now tell me who I'm dating!" She demanded impatiently.
Natsu wracked through his head for an answer or excuse-preferably the latter, seeing as this girl was annoying as hell.
"Look sweetheart, I'm sorry to say this but...I don't think anyone is fit for your 'low standards'" Natsu motioned quotes, not entirely impressed. Lucy's eyes widened slightly and she leaned forward, her brown eyes turning dark with desperation.
"Please!-I mean...please. Please, I need this." Lucy mumbled, staring down at her fingers. Natsu rose an eyebrow at her sudden outburst, staring carefully at her.
He held his leveled gaze, and when she had enough courage to meet his eyes again she stared straight back at him. Her brown eyes were filled to the brim with determination, puzzling Natsu.
"Why?" He asked softly, truly curious as to what the blonde wanted.
Her gaze softened slightly, and he could see the pain behind her eyes.
"Let's just say...I haven't had the best relationships, okay? And I'm starting to give up on love. And without love, I'll just be a shell of a human.." She admitted quietly, once again staring down at her fingers. The pink haired male continued to stare at her, trying to figure her out.
"...Fine." He finally gave in, slightly impressed. She looked up quickly, a smile breaking out on her face.
"Really?" She asked hopefully, leaning forward.
"No not really, I'm just saying that to get your hopes up." He replied sarcastically. "We really need to work on your stupid questions, Luigi." Natsu advised, rolling his eyes. Lucy felt a tic appear over her eye, her teeth grinding together.
"Shut up! My name is LUCY!" She roared, startling him.
"A-Aye!" He squealed, covering his head with his hands. Lucy simpered, watching him in amusement.
When he didn't feel a strike, he slowly looked up. He furrowed his eyebrows at her, pouting cutely. "Erza number two." He grumbled under his breath.
She giggled at him, standing up from the chair. He watched her with cautious eyes, wondering what she was doing.
She walked over to him, standing next to him now. She peered over his shoulder curiously, eyes widening at what she saw.
"You baka! You didn't even turn the computer on!" She screeched, wacking him with her purse. He grinned sheepishly up at the girl, unfazed by her attack.
"Hahaha..oops?" He said nervously, standing up so she couldn't hit him again.
"Ugh! You are so annoying and irritating and infuriating and-"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, we get it; you think I'm attractive." He waved his hand in front of her, irritating her further.
Her face flushed and she hit him once more. "You are such a dumbass!"
"We both know what you really mean."
"Ugh!"
