"Hello?"

"Zeref! You finally answered! I was calling you for hours!"

"Sorry Mavis. I was sleeping." Said Zeref sheepishly.

"At this time in the morning?"

He could hear Mavis 'hmmph!'ing on the other side of the phone.

"Anyways, want to hang out at 1?"

"Sure thing. Gotta tell Natsu that I can't go to the movies with Lucy then."

"Are you sure? I mean, you don't need to give up your time for me,"

"Doesn't matter. Besides, they're going to watch a romance movie, and I do NOT like that genre."

Mavis giggled. "Then meet me in front of the Sakura tree! At one, okay?"

"Okay." He hung up.

Zeref scrambled out of his bed, and checked the clock. Half past eleven in the morning.

He stretched a bit, and walked out of his bedroom door. Zeref could still hear Natsu snoring in his room. Sighing, Zeref barged in through the door and removed his younger brother's bedsheet.

"Wake up, Natsu. You have to get ready if you want to arrive at the park at twelve." Natsu groaned.

"Just five more minutes."

"No. Natsu, wake up now. You want to be late again?"

"Fine!" Natsu yelled, before sitting up.

"Get dressed up. It's your first date, isn't it?" Natsu grumbled, and began to search through his messy bundle of clothes.

"You never fold them properly, do you?"

"I don't bother." Natsu answered simply as he picked up a black shirt with a red dragon and a pair of grey pants, along with white socks and a black jacket.

"Come out when you're ready. I'll have breakfast prepared. And also, brush. Your. Teeth."

"Yeah, yeah. Fine." Zeref staggered out of the room, closing the door behind. He went straight to the kitchen, where he cooked bacon and fried eggs.

Natsu ran out of his room, still zipping the jacket, drooling.

"Is that bacon and fried eggs I smell?" Zeref shook his head at his younger brother's love for food.

"Correct. You know, sometimes, I mistake you as a dog." Natsu pouted.

Zeref layed out five eggs and eleven strips of bacon on a plate, serving it with orange juice. Natsu grabbed a knife and fork, pinned one strip of bacon and shoved it into his mouth. The plate was cleared within minutes, not a single speck of egg or bacon to be seen.

"Brush your teeth." Zeref reminded, Natsu groaning even louder.

"Fine, fine. I lose." He stumbled to the bathroom reluctantly. He returned a short moment later.

"Natsu, I'm not going to follow you on your date." Zeref stated simply.

"Wha- why? Then who's going to help me please Lucy? Who's going to stop me from doing juvenile things?" Natsu sounded scared.

"You'll be fine, Natsu. It's just a date, okay? Besides, Lucy loves you. I'm sure she wouldn't mind taking care of a dragon for a day."

"Then where are you going to go?"

"Hanging out with Mavis."

"You mean dating."

"Same thing."

Zeref stopped by a flower shop before heading out to meet his girlfriend. Smiling, he bought a bundle of dandelions, a present for Mavis. The dandelions were pale yellow, nearly the exact same color as Mavis' hair. Before Zeref could realize, he was already near the Sakura tree, pink and white blossoms blooming in the sunlight.
He hid the flowers behind his back, with a familiar, short girl running as fast as her little legs could carry her.

Mavis Vermilion.

A flower.

No- his flower.
