"Perhaps you should explain it to me once more. I'm not quite sure I understand."
"I wanted to know what was so special about strawberry cake. I wanted to know why you liked it so much."
"Yes you've said that…numerous times." The redhead glared at the dragon slayer as he cowered before her in the corner of their kitchen. "So instead of simply asking me for a piece, you decided to down the entire cake that I was saving?"
"Y…yeah?"
"Natsu~!"
The dragon slayer braced himself for Erza's wrath. As he made peace with the various gods above, the pinkette was comforted by a hand on his head. When he opened his eyes, he saw Erza smiling softly at him.
"Did it at least taste good?" she asked him.
"Kinda. You're not mad?"
"Oh no, I'm positively livid." The redhead said through her now ominous smile. "I had been saving up for that cake. They only make it twice a year. This was the first time I was able to buy one before they sold out, but I guess it was my fault for leaving the cake out in the open for you to eat in the first place. I should have known better."
Natsu sulked. "Sorry."
Erza sighed and pulled the dragon slayer to his feet. "Apology accepted, but that doesn't mean you are off the hook. As penance for your crime you are to buy me two whole cakes to replace the one you ate when they go on sale again. It won't be cheap either, just one slice is equal to half of Lucy's rent."
"You're kidding me!" Natsu exclaimed. "What kind of cake is-"he immediately shut up when Erza's glare narrowed. "Never mind. I understand."
"Good." Erza's smile returned. "Next time you're curious about one of my cakes just tell me." she grabbed his hand. "We'll eat it together."
Natsu smiled wide. "Right."
I did mention I was a day behind. So here is the official prompt for day 2.
