(Lucy's P.O.V)
Once I got home I was quickly rushed upstairs by all my maids and put in a bath. Once I was in the bath I could hear footsteps rushing everywhere outside. People talking about being faster and people saying things must be perfect.
"I wonder what all the rushing is about?" I said sinking my head into the water. I was in the midst of my thoughts when I heard a knock on the door so I pulled my head out of the water just in time to hear my maid Virgo.
"Miss Lucy time to get out so you can get ready."
"What's so important about this guest I'm seeing today? And secondly why am I seeing one of fathers clients I'm never invited to see them?" I asked getting a slight giggle in return.
"You'll understand soon Miss Lucy, but for now hop out of the bath so we can do your hair and make-up and get you dressed."
"Ok" I said hopping out of the bath and wrapping a towel around my body.
'But I really do wonder who it is'.
(Meanwhile at the Dragneel Manor)
(Natsu's P.O.V)
As soon as I stepped foot in my house I was rushed into the bathroom by my mother.
"Hurry we're going to be late! Have a quick shower and your clothes will be on your bed when you get out now hurry!"
"What's going on?" I asked in return.
"All will be explained soon just hurry we must leave" my father said closing the bathroom door in my face.
"Very well" I said starting to strip. 'What's going on here' I thought hopping into the shower.
(15 minutes later)
I got out of the bathroom and went into my room with a towel wrapped around my waist. Once I got in my room I saw laid out on my bed a pair of black pants, a red dress shirt and a pair of black shoes. I quickly got dressed seeing how we were 'in a rush' and went downstairs.
"Okay I'm ready, but can you tell me where we are going?" I said hopping into the car.
"As I already said dear all shall be explained soon" my mother said giving me a slight glare as if saying 'Now drop it!"
"I wouldn't mess with her right now her dress didn't arrive now she is angry" my sister Wendy told me.
I quickly looked away not wanting to die by the hands of my own mother. I really wonder what's going on though, I mean I'm never invited to visit my fathers clients and business people, so why? Why now?
(Back at the Heartfilia Manor)
(Lucy's P.O.V)
Once I had gotten out of the bathroom I was quickly rushed to the other side of my room where my dresser was. I was directed to sit down as Virgo went and got Cancer my hair dresser.
Once Cancer had fished putting my hair into a braided bun leaving my bangs out Virgo and Aries came in with the make-up kit and started putting on my make up.
'All of this for one guest, what a special guest this must be' I thought. I was soon pulled out of my thoughts as Virgo and Aries left telling me to put on the dress that was on my bed.
I turned around and went to my bed and looked at the dress. It was beautiful. It was a blue strapless dress with a close-fitting and sparkly top and a long elegant bottom which stopped at the ankles.
Once I finished putting on my dress I put on my white stilettos and looked in the mirror. I checked my hair and make-up before walking towards the stairs. Once there I looked down and quickly hid.
'What is a boy from my class doing here? If anyone saw me like this I'd be ruined! They would all think I'm some elegant business chick and that's not who I am! I hate being dressed like this! Oh no now I have butterfly's in my stomach! Someone take me away from here now!' I looked back down only to be greeted by my mothers eyes who gave me a signal to come down. 'Guess I don't have a choice' I sighed as I quickly went to the railing of the stairs and started to walk down.
'I swear I'm gonna die tonight!'
(Natsu's P.O.V)
We arrived at a house and my mother and father started to hop out of the car, followed by Wendy which was then followed my me. I looked at the house, well I wouldn't call it a house it was more like a mansion. I followed my mother and father as they walked up to the door and softly knocked, which was quickly opened by two maids a male and a female. One had half red and half white hair and the other had blue.
"Hello I am Aquarius and this is Scorpio we hope you have a pleasant time here Dragneel family" the female, who I now know as Aquarius said.
"Thank you" my father said as he walked inside. Once inside we were greeted by a man and woman with blonde hair.
"Pleasure to see you again Igneel, Grandine, Natsu and Wendy" the male said as the woman gave a cheery smile.
"The same goes to you Jude and Layla. Where is your lovely daughter?" my father asked giving them the same toothy grin that I have.
"Still preparing, after all it is a big night am I wrong" the blonde woman now known as Layla said.
"Yes it is indeed" my mother said as she and Layla shared a quite giggle.
The conversations went on as Wendy and I stood there quietly feeling sort of awkward. I glanced over at Layla to see she was looking at something at the top of the stairs I directed my eyes towards there and saw nothing.
I looked back at Layla and saw she was directing whatever she was looking at to come down. I slowly looked back towards the stairs and as I did I stood there wide eyed and jaw dropped.
It was the new girl from class, Lucy but the only difference was she wasn't in that ugly school uniform the girls usually wear she was in a elegant blue dress with a sparkly top that showed off her amazing body figure and a long blue bottom that stopped at her ankles. I couldn't directed my eyes away from her she just looked so beautiful.
(Lucy's P.O.V)
I walked down the stairs feeling awkward and fidgety. He was staring at me. I looked behind to see if he was looking at someone else but he was looking directly at me. I looked away not wanting to look him directly in the eye.
I reached the bottom of the stairs and as soon as I did I was greeted by two blue hair ladies and a red haired man. Who I then found out to be Igneel, Grandine and Wendy.
I made my way over to Natsu and gave him a small smile. "It's nice to see you again Mr Dragneel" I said.
"Please the pleasure is all mine Miss Heartfilia" he said giving me the same toothy grin he had when we met, and once again I couldn't help but smile back.
"Well we are going to discuss business, why don't you two get to know each other a bit more. Wendy you can come with us dear." Grandine said as Wendy nodded and the five walked away into the living room.
We stood there in silence it was kind of awkward we didn't really now what to do or say. "So what would you like to do?" Natsu asked breaking the silence.
"Ummm how about we take a walk" I said looking at him he quickly nodded as we headed out towards the garden.
(In the garden)
(Still Lucy's P.O.V)
"So how do you like the school so far?" Natsu asked.
"It's good I guess, I think I'll start to like it a bit more once I get to know people and make friends" I said giving him a slight smile.
"I'm your friend" he said looking directly at me making me blush. He let out a small laugh as he walked in front of me and stopped me from walking.
"Am I your friend?" he asked grinning at me.
"If you can handle me" I said giving him a evil smile.
"Is that a challenge Miss Heartfilia?" he asked crossing his arms and giving me a curious look.
"What if it is?" I asked making him grin.
"Then I'll have no choice but to accept"
"Oh really?" I asked.
"It's only the polite thing to do is it not?"
"If you wish to challenge me-" I started to walk away mid-sentence taking off my shoes. He gave me a weird looking not understanding what I was doing.
"If you wish to challenge me you must... catch me" I said running off.
He stood there shocked for a moment before starting to grin "If that is what you wish".
I looked behind me only to see him chasing after me I started to laugh as I kept running as fast as I could.
I went to turn my seventh corner as I felt arms circle around my waist. I screamed and looked behind to see Natsu grinning at me. "Got cha".
I started to laugh as he turned me around to look at him. My laugh started to die down as I looked into his eyes.
"You know your really different Luce" he said as he continued to look into my eyes and his arms still around my waist.
"Luce?" I asked.
"Your new nickname" he said as he smiled at me.
"When you say different do you mean in a good or bad way?" I asked making him laugh.
"In a good way I promise".
I smiled "In a way I guess your different too" I said.
"In a good or bad way".
"I don't know yet but it's fun" I said making him smile.
"I'm glad I came here I learnt something about the new girl that the others don't know" he said.
"Really what?" I asked "I don't remember telling you anything about me".
"You didn't need to tell me because I didn't need to hear it I saw it" he said.
"What did you see exactly?".
"That no matter what you wear or how you act your always beautiful". he said grinning at me.
I started blushing fifty different shades of red as I froze in his arms looking away from him.
I looked back up to meet his eyes and he put his hand to my face brushing away my bangs.
"What you doing?" we quickly jumped apart looking down to meet the eyes of Wendy.
"Oh ah nothing we were just talking" I said looking at anything but Natsu afraid I might blush again.
"Yeah, anything you needed Wendy?" Natsu asked.
"Yes actually, you need to come to the living room now there is important news to tell" Wendy said walking away quickly followed by me, followed by Natsu.
(In the living room)
(Natsu's P.O.V)
"Hello deary's" my mother said as Lucy and I entered the room. "Take a seat".
Lucy and I sat down as we did Lucy began to speak.
"Is there something you needed" she asked sweetly giving a innocent smile.
"Yes actually there is important news we must tell you" Layla said looking at Lucy to me.
"What kind of news?" I asked getting quite scared of what was going to be said. Knowing my mother it wasn't always the best news.
"Well" my father started "When both you and Lucy were very young the four of us sat down to talk about company matters and what would happen to our companies in the future".
"What does this have to do with us?" I asked looking around.
"Well you and Lucy play a big part in the companies future, and so we when we were talking about the companies future we were then brought into a conversation discussing both of your futures and we decided on a path that would help them both".
"What kind of path are we talking about here?" Lucy asked gaining the attention of everyone.
"Well" Jude said "We decided-" he was soon cut of by two screaming women "TO ARRANGE A MARRIAGE BETWEEN BOTH OF YOU" Layla and my mother yelled.
"WHAT!?" we both yelled standing up.
"I can't marry someone I barely know it's unreasonab-" I started but soon stopped when I saw Lucy falling towards the ground.
'Oh shit she fainted' I thought. I quickly rushed out and caught her.
"LUCY" Layla and my mother yelled.
"What happened to her! Oh my dear Lucy are you okay?" Layla asked rushing to Lucy's side.
"She fainted" I said "I think shock got the best of her" Igneel said leaning down and feeling her temperature.
"She's really warm" Igneel said "It would be best for her to rest".
"Natsu could you carry her to her room?" Layla asked making me blush.
"S-sure" I said as I picked her up bridal style. "Where is her room?" I asked.
"Oh Virgo will show you the way, please stay with her till she wakes up it will be best if someone is there when she wakes up" Layla said making me nod, then out of no where a maid with pink hair appeared in front of me. I assumed it must be Virgo and quickly followed her with Lucy in my arms as she walked out the door.
It was an awkward silence between me and Virgo as we walked Lucy to her room. She quickly took Lucy in and changed her as I waited outside. It took about ten minutes and I waited outside using my phone. Once Virgo came out I took it as my queue to go in. I started to walk in but was stopped by a hand I turned around to see Virgo looking at me.
"Is there something you need?" I asked making her nod.
"Sure what is it you need?"
"I need you to take good care of Lucy" she said, I stood there shocked what was she talking about. "Just please hear me out" she said as I nodded. "Lucy has never really been a big fan of boys, she wouldn't ignore them or anything but she wouldn't let a boy touch her or talk to her the way you did. She has never had a boyfriend or been on a date or anything like that. The reason I'm asking you to take care of her is because I saw the way she looked and talked to you. It was different. I've been with her her whole life and she has never looked or spoken to a boy like that before. You might be something special. Take pride in that. She likes you so please take care of her" after that she let go of my arm and walked off.
I stood there shocked for a while before I slowly closed the door and looked towards Lucy as I sat on a chair next to her. She is so different from other girls, other girls would kill to have a boyfriend or go on a date, but she, she doesn't care. I smiled to myself as I brushed the bangs of her face. I have tried so hard to keep the walls to my heart locked when it comes to girls but she, she just walked right in and unlocks it.
(Time skip 20 minutes)
(Lucy's P.O.V)
I slowly opened my eyes and looked around. I was in my room. How did I get here?
"Welcome back" I heard a voice say. I looked around till my eyes laid on a man sitting in a chair. Natsu.
"What are you doing in my room?" I asked sitting up slowly and looking down "DID YOU DRESS ME?"
"No, Virgo did. God what kind of man do you think I am?"
"A sick pervert looking for any girl you can get" I said smiling at him evilly.
"Ha ha very funny and I carried you to your room after you dramatically fainted in the living room" he said looking out the window with a blank face.
"Wait, you carried me?" I asked.
"Yeah, pretty sure I just said that" he said turning around to grin at me.
It was awkward for a few minute till Natsu broke the silence. "So we're getting married I guess" he said making me look at him.
"No matter what anyone says I'm not marrying you because I don't love you. I refuse to marry someone I don't love" I said glaring at him.
"Well I don't want to go against my parents wishes unlike somebody so I'm just gonna have to make you love me" he said resting his elbow on his knee and his chin on his palm.
"I doubt that" I said making him grin.
"Another challenge?" he asked making me glare at him even darker.
"Love is not a prize to be one by a challenge!" I yelled making him put his hands up as if surrendering.
"Sorry sorry, but please for the sake of our parents at least give this engagement this a chance" he said making me look at him curiously.
"Fine I'll give this marriage four months, if by the end of the four months I'm still not in love with you the engagement is off, but if I do end up loving you then the engagement will continue and we will get married" I said making him nod.
"Deal" he said giving me a slight grin.
"Very well prepare for the worst four months of your life Dragneel" I said making him look in my eyes and pull me up so his hands were around my waist and his eyes were locked on mine.
"Oh Miss Heartfilia prepare to fall in love".
