Chapter Two: Fun, Fun, And More Fun?
"Cannonball!" yelled the Salamander as he jumped into the pool from the diving board. Water went everywhere including on Lucy, and other guests who were sitting down.
"Come on Lucy. Its great!" said Natsu waving excitedly at her.
"No thanks Natsu. I'll wait for the beach." said Lucy while waving back.
"Ok. Suit yourself." he said as he shrugged his shoulders, and started swimming around the pool.
The old lady next to Lucy looked at Natsu and then Lucy. She had a smirk on her face which caught Lucy's attention from watching her friend having fun.
As Lucy saw the old woman, she found some women should not under any circumstances wear a two piece bathing suit, and this old lady was the reason.
"How long have you two been going out?" asked the old lady who was being quite nosy.
"We're not going out!" said Lucy putting up her hands in defense.
"Oh pish pash. I saw how you look at him." said the old woman.
Lucy blushed as she hadn't noticed herself. She had been watching Natsu a lot more lately, and she wasn't sure what the old lady meant by I see how you look at him.
"Well I guess you could say that I do look at him a lot." said Lucy with a blush.
The old lady just laughed. "Well I advise you to grab him before he gets away. I myself have let plenty of men slip through my fingers and trust me you'll hate it when you think what could have been." said the old lady giving quite a bit of wisdom to the young Stellar Spirit mage.
"Wow thanks miss." said Lucy. She was thanking as those were the words of courage or wisdom that she needed. Lucy knew that she liked Natsu for a while, but her head didn't notice how her heart felt until recently.
After Natsu was done having his fun at the pool, he and Lucy had hit the beach. Natsu was stretched out on a beach towel with sunglasses on. He wasn't ready to go swimming again just yet. Lucy meanwhile was combing the beach for seashells. She had a bucket and pal with her as she walked down the beautiful, trash free beach. So far her bucket was half-full.
After a quick glance at the sun above her, she saw a pretty deep blue spiral shell. "Wow its so pretty," said Lucy as she was about to pick it up. However, a sandal stopped her from picking it up. Well, a foot in a sandal to be precise. Lucy was bent down, and had to look up to see who had blocked her hand from getting the seashell.
A stranger stood above her. He wasn't half bad looking ... for a jerk. He was grinning with sunglasses above his forehead. He had blue spiky gelled hair, while wearing only swimming trunks.
"Whats a cute little lass like you doing something as kiddish as picking up seashells?" asked the jerk.
This made Lucy irritated as she stood up. She now noticed the difference in height. He was way taller than her by quite a bit, as she only came up to his neck.
"I'm picking them because its fun. Its not kiddish either. Plenty of people pick seashells," said Lucy with a huff.
The surfer looking dude just laughed. "Well if thats all you came here for, this expensive hotel, to pick seashells, then obviously you've never had a night out with a man," said the playboy. "Come with me, and I'll show you the night of a lifetime."
"No thanks. I don't go out with big pompous buffoons who only know how to pick up girls," said Lucy as she moved her hair to the side of her face as a wind had just blown it in her eyes.
"What did you call me! I just happen to be a mage, and at that a member of the famous Blue Hawks!" exclaimed the surfer dude. Lucy had heard about them. They were a recently popular guild due to it being primarily having only sexy male mages. However, a rumor was that the guild was weak as hell magic wise, but most of the members had good physical strength.
"Whatever. I myself am a mage, and belong to a guild, so back off," said Lucy as she tried to walk away, forgetting about the seashell this whole thing had started over.
"Oh no you don't!" yelled the Blue Hawk mage as he grabbed Lucy by the wrist, instantly pulling her back against his chest.
"Ouch! Let me go you bastard!" said Lucy as she tried to loosen the man's grip but it wouldn't one bit.
"Your coming with me to pay back for that insult," said the man with a dirty smile.
"Natsu! Help!" yelled the damsel in distress as the Salamander came into mind.
"Natsu? Whos Natsu?" asked the kidnapper.
The man got his answer as Lucy's call of distress had gotten Natsu's attention from the other side of the beach. A fist connected with the jerkish mage's face sending him plowing into the sand.
Natsu caught Lucy as she fell back.
"You ok?" he asked with concern on his face.
"Yeah. I'm fine, just that jerk tried to get me to go with him," replied Lucy while getting on her own feet.
Natsu looked at the surfer looking mage who was getting up, spouting some curse words, and getting sand out of his hair. He started walking towards the two friends with anger in his eyes. "I'll be back in one minute Lucy. Just wait there," said Natsu as he himself started to advance towards the Blue Hawk mage.
After a good bumbling by Natsu, the Blue Hawk mage was now knocked out with a bunch of bumps, and bruises. Natsu returned to Lucy who was sitting down, hugging her legs. She noticed Natsu out of the corner of her eye. She patted down on the sand, for him to join her.
Natsu did as he was asked. "Thanks Natsu."
"No problem. No one messes with a fellow nakama," he replied with that same kiddish grin he gave everything, and everyone.
She couldn't help but giggle at Natsu, but at the same time her heart winced. Was that really all she was to him? A friend? She sighed, enough to grab Natsu' curiosity too.
"Whats wrong?" he asked.
"Well its really nothing," said Lucy.
"No tell me please."
She knew he would keep pestering her for the answer. Instantly, a little plan devised itself in Lucy's mind.
"Alright Natsu. I'll tell you by the end of this trip, if things have changed," she said with a sweet smile.
"Alright, but what do you mean change? Why would one more day here change us?" asked Natsu.
Lucy just shook her head. "Thats up to what happens tomorrow."
Lucy started to comb the beach again with her pal leaving Natsu to ponder what she had meant.
After a few more hours, Lucy, and Natsu returned to the hotel. Natsu was now tan, and Lucy as well. Her pal was also filled to the brim with seashells. They both were smiling as they walked into the reception hall. Just as they were about to hit the elevator, someone caught Lucy's attention. It was the old lady from earlier. The old woman had noticed Lucy before she had her and winked at Lucy. It was as if she knew Lucy was going to try to win Natsu's heart tomorrow. Lucy merely nodded back with a smile to add. She watched the old woman leave to her surprise with a man behind her with a lot of luggage bags.
