It took me some time finally start writing but here is the next chapter! Hope you enjoy!
I don't own Fairy Tail. It belongs to Hiro Mashima!
Chapter 2 ~ Work
I awoke of the sound from something. Slowly I opened my eyes to look at the thing that waked me from my sweet dream.
"Damn" I mumbled as I recogniced it was my alarm. I had work today!
I turned my alarm off and rubbed my sleep away as I went into my bathroom.
A hot shower will help
With that I opened the door to my bathroom to strip my clothes. I went under the shower to shampoo my blonde hair and my body with strawberry and vanilia scent before I turned off the shower and grabbed my towel. I dried my wet hair plus my body and headed into my room to dress me in a knee-lengh tight black skirt and a yellow strapless top I went to the kitchen to grab some toast with bacon. After my little breakfast snack I grabbed my bag and headed to the entrance door to open it. With my key I closed that door and headed to work.
While walking I remembered last night when I headed for a walk. A smile made it's way to my lips as I remembered Natsu.
After 10 minutes walking I arrived my work - The Fairy Tail company.
I really love working there with all my friends like Levy-chan, Gray, Erza, Mirajane, Lisanna, Juvia, Gajeel, Cana and many more. I opened the door and entered it smiling. I wished everyone I passed by a good morning while I was heading into the 6th floor. It was the floor where I worked with my best friend Levy-chan.
"Good morning Levy-chan!" I smiled at the bluenette who was already working on her computer. Her face bright up as she saw me.
"Lu-chan! Good morning!" she stood up to hug me tightly. I smiled at the 24 years old bluenette who was in the same age like me.
We took a seat - not far away from each other - and continued/started work. I was still tired because of the walk from yesterday and mouth flew open and a yawn come out. Levy noticed it because she turned to me.
"Coffee Lu-chan?" my brown orbs met her green ones and I nodded.
"Please. Maybe that would help me to stay awake ..." I mumbled the last words and Levy went to the kitchen and handed me my coffee. Greatful I took it and thanked her after I nipped on my hot coffee. She smiled to me and continued her work. I heard the clicking of the computer mouse time to time coming from Levy-chan or from me.
After some minutes of silence she asked me suddenly: "Hey Lu-chan, why are you so tired?" she stared at me as if I was sneaking into some house and I sighed.
"I couldn't sleep and headed for a funny walk at night" I smiled as I remembered the night with Natsu again.
"What is so funny about walking into the night?" me and my big mouth.
"Well nothing I just thought it would sound funny so..."
"Lu-chan?" I saw it into her eyes that she didn't believe me and I sighed once again as I gave in.
"Fine. I met someone" I watched her reaction and I could see her eyes widen.
"Who did you met?" Now she stopped working, only interested into my story.
"Ehhh a boy?"
"A boy?! How is he?" I sighed and already knew I regret talking about it.
"He's nice and good-looking and-"
"So he's your boyfriend" she exclaimed and I could feel the blood rushed into my face.
"L-Levy-chan! N-No he is not my b-boyfriend!" she smirked.
"Who is not your boyfriend?" I turned around to look at the raven haired boy. It was Gray one of my best friends here.
"Lu-chan met someone yesterday and I think it's her secret love!" Levy-chan explained and jumped from her seat excited. I rolled my eyes and rested my head onto my hand. I stood up and walked to them.
"He is NOT my boyfriend and I met him yesterday for the first time and-"
"You don't want to tell me you were out with some stranger?!" Gray asked half shouting.
"Would you let me explain everything without that one interrupt me?" I looked first to Gray who nodded than Levy-chan who looked worried.
"Alright... he accompanied me and walked me home while we were chatting and exactly he is some stranger...but he's not bad! He's nice caring and really funny too" I don't want to let them know everything. Gray and Levy would freak out if they heard that he could smell tears and that he have a blue talking cat ...
Both blinked then Levy shouted "He know where you live?" and Gray "I'm going to have a talk with him. Where does he live?"
"I don't know where he lives!" the memory as Natsu gave me his number came back. Maybe I should call him that he can explain everything. I searched for his number into my bag but forgot it home.
"Can we please talk about this at lunch?" both nodded and I sighed in relief. Gray walked back to his seat in another room with Loke and I tried to think of how I get out of that. The time flew away and soon, exactly after some hours, Gray came and asked "Ready?" and I gulped. I didn't know how to explain it to them but maybe on the way to the local it would cross my mind.
"Ah Lucy, Gray and Levy" we all turned to where the voice come from.
"Erza!" we exclaimed in unison.
"Would you mind if I join you today at lunch?" she smiled. How beautiful she looked with her red long hair.
"No! We were heading to the local into the Blueberrystreet." Gray said nervous.(Since Luce lives in the Strawberrystreet why not?)
Most people in the company are afraid of getting Erza angry because she can be really scary when she is angry!
We headed to the elevator when I felt a dark aura behind me. I turned around to saw Juvia hiding behind some door mumbling "Love rival". Well she loves Gray and thinks every person beside him want him as a boyfriend. But Gray is more like a big brother to me and I really like him.
We drove to the ground floor and headed outside to the said street to enter the local. We took a seat and ordered. I took some salad with some toast while Erza ordered a strawberry caked what leaved everyone on the desk with a open mouth. Gray ordered some meat with salad while Levy ordered spaghetti.
While we waited for our ordered meal Levy started the conservation.
"So Lu-chan start to explain your story!" she looked really excited and Gray just nodded.
"Which story?" Erza asked letting the three sigh in unison.
"I met a boy yesterday for the first time when I headed for a walk because I couldn't sleep. And those two" I pointed first at Levy than at Gray "think I'm in love or was out with some stranger .."
Erza answered fast. "I never knew you have a b-boyfriend" she stuttered and her face was as red as her hair.
"Did you listened to my words? Yeah maybe he is some stranger but he's also a nice and caring person! Not to think of how funny he can be. I know he's not a bad person. Stop thinking he is when you all never met him." I couldn't belive that all of them thought he is a bad guy. Seriously not every person is bad!
Our ordered meal come and we started eating.
"Some more questions?" I asked not sure if they would stop there and believe me.
"Yeah. Lu-chan do you know his name?" I blinked a few times and nodded.
"Tell us" Erza and Gray said in unison.
"Okay his name is-" I was interrupted again from someone and I looked into the persons eyes angry.
"Excuse me beautiful may I sit beside you?" my eyes widen at the voice, those onxy eyes and this toothy grin.
"Yo Luce!" Natsu grinned at me.
"N-Natsu!" my face burned and I knew everyone was looking at me.
"Wait you know Natsu?" Gray asked suddenly. I nodded and let Natsu sit beside me.
"Well he is the stranger I was walking with yesterday" I explained.
"Hey Gray, Erza!" his grin is really awesome.
"Natsu" as he heard Erza's voice he shivered.
"Y-Yes?"
"Congratulation for your realationship" my eyes widen at Erza's words and I could see her blushing a bit.
"We aren't together!" I exclaimed.
"We aren't?" I turned to Natsu who smiked at me serious about his question. I bet he just wanted to tease me but that didn't help me that my face was as red as Erza's beautiful long hair.
"No we aren't!" I nearly shouted.
Finally after arguing a bit all gave in and we continued eating. Natsu ordered some fire chicken to join us.
We were talking about how Natsu met me and thank god they understand now that he's not a stranger nor evil or bad. While eating I asked how they met Natsu and Gray explained that they are childhood friends.
I blushed as Erza said they were often bathing together when they were kids and Natsu asked me if I had fever since my head was so read. He took his hand on my forehead what only let my face burn more.
After lunch we headed back to work. Levy and I were talking about some special book and when my next chapter from my novel will be out while Gray, Erza and Natsu talked about what they like. Erza stared with weapons while Gray said he loved ice and Natsu wanted to be a dragon with a lot of fire in his lungs.
I sweatdropped when I heard their conservation - glad that we were back at work.
Finally! Hope you enjoyed!
