To love a Tiger

by Char-nee

When Lucy first met Rufus, she had no idea that he was a Sabertooth mage, she just asked him for some help, even though he didn't know she was a Fairy, either. When they first met, they thought "She's/he's so cute!" but now, they think "I will finally get to spend time with you, even if you are my rival!". this is Lufus, or whatever you call it, don't like it, don't read! nya ;3

3. Who!

Nice to see you again, minna! Arigatou for being so patient! But, Char-nee has this thing called School and Homework... this makes it soooo much Fuckin' harder to update my fanfics! T^T But, on the bright side, I actually still update my stories! In this chapter, it is after everyone has recovered, and Sabertooth and Fairy Tail are tied for 1'st place! Now, for the next chapter! ON WITH IT, BITCHES! X3

Nobody's P.O.V.

"WHAAAAAAAT?!" ask the two teams

"That's right, brats, you both are forced to spend your prize together!" Yells Master Jiemma

"For once, I agree with him! You have to deal with it!" Makarov yells after Jiemma. Both teams groan, except for Lucy and Rufus.

"Do we have to?" asks Orga

"Yes, it won't be that bad, and if you disagree, I will punish you!" says Master Jiemma with a glare. After a long time of bickering, they were forced to go, being already packed, they got there quickly. But, when they got there, there was a note from Jiemma and Makarov that Orga read aloud

"Dear brats,

You have each been paired up with a member of the opposite team. If you disagree or try to switch, you can't, because we have the rooms rigged, so only the two assigned to it can enter, if you do enter, you will be shocked and drained of your magical power, and it will tell us who you are, so we can thoroughly punish you when you get back.

otherwise, enjoy yourselves!

Masters Jiemma and Makarov."

Everyone got the message... they went to check into the rooms, so when they went to go and get the room keys, the lady at the desk also handed Erza a list of who was in which room, which, of course, Erza read aloud

"In Room 201, Rufus and Lucy

in room 202, Natsu and Sting

in room 203, Minerva and myself

in room 204, Rogue and Gray

and in room 205, Orga and Elfman."

And as soon as she finishes, Natsu says

"But Erza, I don't wanna be with this arrogant bastard, and I think it's unfair that Lucy is the only one with a male! What if he tries something!?" he complains, Erza knocks him on the head, while Rufus is waving his hands in front of his face, innocently

"No, no, no, no, I would never try anything with Lucy!" he says defending himself

"Don't worry Natsu, I know he won't try anything." Erza says confidently

"Owww, alright..." Natsu grumbles.

On the outside, Lucy and Rufus are expressionless, but on the inside, they were screaming YES! they both thought that after this trip, they could tell their friends about their friendship and how they met. They went up to their room and shut the door

"I'm so happy, Rufus! We can talk to eachother without inturruptions, because there is a shock-thingy on the door!" Lucy says happily throwing herself at Rufus

"Yeah, and I can do this!" He says tickling her without mercy

"R-R-Rufus, knock it- hahahaha- off!" She manages to gag out

"Say uncle!" He says laughing at the giggling girl

"Uncle, uncle!" she yells at him. He stops tickling her and starts to laugh harder, she looks at him confused and then cracks up again.

"Haha- we pmft really- heehee are idiots!" she laughs out

"Y-yeah! hahaha!" He says

After 30 minutes of laughing like idiots... (Lucy's P.O.V.)

"Sorry, I jumped on ya before!" I apologize to Rufus, who is hiccuping from all that laughing

"That's *hic* alright *hic*" he exclaims, glugging down more water. All of a sudden, we hear a scream

"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA?!" we rush into Natsu's door way. only to find Sting crawling towards me, and a girl with short white hair, standing in a suitcase

"Uh, hey, Lucy!" she says, nervously scratching her cheek

"Lisanna?!" I ask
