Chapter 3
Mavis's POV
I lay there on my bed, checking through my messages.
"11 unread" it showed on my cell phone screen.
Yesterday I'd been busy, busy enough to forget my cell phone.
It was some spam from Levy and chain messages. I went through the rest and something caught my eye.
'Zeref_kun: I hope my clothes are well'
It showed.
It was very rare for him to send me a message. He only texts with Erza, Lucy and… Ultear.
He talks a lot with Ultear. Some even said that he used to have a crush on her. What if he still does? Ultear talks about him to me all the time telling me everything he said to her, how he bought her a kitten on her birthday, how they know each other since childhood and bleh I usually just forced a smile and nodded.
Its nothing special to receive a message from him. I conclude. He only cares about his stupid clothes.
'your pant tore while I ran' I typed, lying
Zeref POV
I sat there on the couch, headphones on and my cell phone in my hands.
A beep was heard indicating that I had received a new message.
'Shorty: your pant tore while I ran' .I read and smirked, we hardly texted.
'what?!' I typed with fast fingers. It really didn't matter to me though.
I waited for her reply but I received none. I got up and went towards the balcony.
Mavis POV
I stood-up and walked out of my bedroom, taking along my i-pod.
I'd like some fresh air right now. A park lies a short distance away from here so I decided to go there.
At the moment I wore a pair of Jeggings and a lose baggy T-shirt.
"I'm going out for a walk mum!" I informed when I passed by her room.
"take Tenshi along!" mum told me. Tenshi was my 1 year old maltese dog.
I stepped out of my house with Tenshi .
It was a warm afternoon. Perfect for a walk. I happily walked toward the park , pulling Tenshi along.
"nice afternoon eh Tenshi?" I said.
"Baw!" he agreed.
I unhooked the leash and patted him.
"don't stray" I warned.
Zeref POV
I was in my balcony leaning against the fence and changing the song from time to time.
I watched the people come and go. There was a park near my house which I could see clearly from the balcony.
Dogs played fetch with their masters and children ran around aimlessly, stupidly bumping into each other and falling. Stupid kids.
It had been a packed day today. Natsu had taken us to a Comic-con (A/N: its something like an anime festival but instead of anime its comic) . We were VERY excited as it was held once every two years. I bought tons of stuff from there. Gerard thought Erza would mock us if she found out we were so excited just for a comic-con so he called it "the thing". Being a maid would be worth it. I met Batman.
My flow of thoughts was interrupted when I spotted a certain blonde in the park. I fallowed her every move. She lazily walked to a nearby swing sitting there listening to songs.
She swung for sometime than she got up and neared the sand-box in which little kids were making sand-castles.
She took off her head-phones and wore it on her neck smiling and watching the kids play. I couldn't help a smile forming on my lips.
A naughty kid, with his dirty hands pulled Mavis in with a jolt. Mavis was startled but she smiled at him and joined them.
I despised kids but Mavis seems to love them.
I watched them play. Even though she was playing with first-graders her sand-castle was the worst one. All the kids laughed at it and she pouted and laughed along.
The sun was about to set and the kids one-by-one hugged her good-bye. She waved to them and herself got out of the sandbox. Her dog was patiently waiting for her near the chair.
*sigh she's a kid too. But unlike other devils I find this one cute.
Mavis POV
I slowly walked home. Both me and Tenshi were tired. The sun was setting as we walked home.
I reached my house and entered the main gate, passing the garden I knocked on the door.
"I'm home ~" I announced as I entered. The maid took Tenshi from me.
"Mavis. Look at you!" my mum exclaimed.
I looked at my clothes. It was all covered in sand.
"uhh… sorry" I said stupidly.
"go get changed, I told a maid to get your bath ready"
I like the sound of that. A lavender bubble bath would do me some good anyway.
Its short. I know. OMG I love you guys sooo much (I mean 6 reviews for 2 chaps?!) but sorry for the waaaaaaaiiiiiiiiitttt (long wait) four months? I dunno. There will probably be a little improvement hence forward.
