"You know I didn't think you would hide this from me Lucy."

"Not now Cana, I'm not in the mood." Lucy grumbled, swatting her brunette friend away from her. However, Cana's teasing look never left her face.

"Awww~ why not?" The older girl slung her arm on Lucy's shoulder, "You still thinking of that hottie you had a photo shoot with the other day?"

"Shut up!" Lucy's immediate answer came, accompanying it was a healthy shade of red on her cheeks. Cana guffawed at her cuteness, "You're thinking about him, aren't you?"

Cana was met with silence from the blonde, but her embarrassment just proved the answer that the brunette wanted.

"My little girl is all grown up!"

"I'm not a little girl!" Lucy pouted at her. Sure Cana was like the older sister she never had, confiding in her about her troubles, or if she needed some advice. Although she had always thought about why her friends were always treating her like she never had a boyfriend before. It's not like she was allergic to the opposite sex, she just hasn't found someone new that made her heart pound like crazy. Except for that guy…

He had a spicy scent mixed with woods, more like nature along with-

"Oh my gosh! It's Lucy!"

"She's so pretty!"

"I heard she had a photo shoot with a famous band-"

"Well aren't you just popular as usual~"

"You know I didn't ask for it Cana. Those Strauss siblings are just hard to shake off." Lucy grimaced, but politely smiled at the screaming girls younger than her.

"Liar~ you and I both know they wouldn't take 'no' for an answer." Lucy giggled at her statement. The Strauss siblings just had a way of getting what they wanted by any means possible.

"Well in any case, you and that hottie of yours are going to meet again." Cana said, teasing Lucy once again.

"How do you know that, Cana?" Lucy asked in a bored tone.

Ping!

"Duh~ My cards said so." Cana answered as she waved her cards in front of the younger girl. "I'll see you later Lucy, I need to get my daily dose of booze."

"I'll laugh when you get caught." Lucy warned, giggling at Cana's disappearing figure. I think she's getting it from Mira. She brought out her phone, looking at the message she just received.

'Hey, you haven't talked to me since yesterday.' 1:46 P.M

'Sorry. I told you I was busy yesterday wasn't I?' 1:47 P.M Lucy didn't know that she was pouting at her text mate.

'She lives! I thought you didn't want to talk to me or something…' 1:48 P.M

'Hey! I'm not that mean~ you're making me feel bad.' 1:50 P.M

'Sorry~ so what's your name?' 1:51 P.M Her pout turned into a frown.

'I won't tell you.' 1:52 P.M

'Why not?!' 1:53 P.M

'Because I don't know you.' 1:54 P.M

'But you know me…' Another text came before Lucy could answer back, ' We even met.' Lucy's eyes bugged out. Maybe I should ask Erza to look this person up.

'Look Natsu… you're kind of creeping me out. So if you're a murderer or something I'm going to have to stop texting you.' 2:02 P.M

"Since I'm not feeling well I'll let you guys go home early today." Their teacher who just came in said. He received cheers from his students that made him chuckle, "I'll see you guys next week." With that their teacher left the room.

Ping!

'I'm not a murderer! I'm a famous person!' 2:07 P.M Quirking an eyebrow, she started typing her answer to this Natsu person, which she didn't know who.

'Really? How about this, I'm free for the rest of the day. Want to meet?'

'Really?! Where?' 2:14 P.M She hesitated in sending the message, but something in her gut was telling her to meet this person. With her eyes closed, she sent the message. I'm so going to regret this…

'Meet me at Café Le Strauss.' 2:15 P.M


'Meet me at Café Le Strauss.'

"Fu- Jellal! Please tell me we don't have any schedule today." A familiar pink-haired boy shouted as he ran towards his tattooed face leader. The blue-haired blinked at him, "What?"

"I said, can I go out?" Natsu asked, changing his first statement. I'm not even going if we have a schedule. To hell with it! I'm going to meet my blonde-haired angel!

"Well, we don't have one today. Tomo- hold it!" Jellal scrambled to snag onto Natsu's shirt, who was going to run before he could finish talking.

"Arghh! Let me go!" Natsu whined at him.

"I will, if you tell me where you plan on going." Jellal said calmly.

"I'm going to meet Lucy!" He shouted, successfully escaping Jellal's hold. And just like that Natsu was gone out of his sight and out of their house.

"Did I just hear him say he was going to meet with Lucy?" A voice asked.

"He's meeting up with bunny-girl?" Another voice joined. Jellal sighed as he stared at his two bandmates.

"That's what he said."

"Heh. I'll just call shrimp and tell her the news, she'll kill me if I didn't." Gajeel said, moving out of the living room.

"Hey Jellal." Gray said. "What is it Gray?" Jellal answered back, feeling drained at the possible outcome that Natsu might get followed by paparazzi's

"Let's follow Natsu." A grin present on Gray's lips. He chuckled, "I figured you'd say that." And this time Gray chuckled with their leader's answer.

"Oi Gajeel! You coming or not?"

Better tell Erza a head's up on the situation.


"Lu-chan! That's not fair! I want to see how you and your mystery man will look together!" Levy whined at the blonde, who sheepishly smiled at her. Well, I already know how they look together. That magazine just proved their perfect chemistry.

"It's not my fault you have classes this afternoon." Lucy mumbled, fixing her things as she got ready to go and meet this Natsu person. Better have Erza on speed dial, just in case.

"But Lu-chan! You can't just meet with someone you don't know!" The smaller girl grabbed the blonde's hands, "What if he's some psycho?" Well, I haven't met him before. But, Gajeel said he likes to blow things up. I hope he doesn't hurt her or anything, but they look so cute!

"I'll have you and Erza on my speed dial." Lucy bargained. Levy pouted at her, but sighed after a few minutes of them staring.

"Fine, you win." Levy said, handing her a pepper spray. "Just make sure to use this when he starts doing anything inappropriate to you."

"Yes, mother." Lucy said, giggling when Levy playfully slapped her arm.

"Lu-chan!"

"I'm going to go now." Lucy said, looking at herself in the mirror one last time before she head out out of their dorm.

"See yah later Levy-chan!"

"Be careful!"

"Fu~ I wanted to be there for their first meeting." Levy whined as she stared at the door Lucy just left through.

Boom!

Brrrrmmm!

Thunder sounded, lightning flashed in the sky. The coldness the wind brought enveloped Lucy. Pulling her thick overcoat tighter against herself didn't help keep the cold at bay. I hope the rain will pass immediat-

BOOM!

She gulped, her heart starting to pound. Her calm steps slowly turned into frantic ones. Soon she was running towards the café she and Natsu was supposed to meet. Water poured down from the sky like sprinklers, that soon got heavier and the droplets larger.

BOOM!

No!


Lightning struck in the distance, its light illuminated inside the barren café. Onyx eyes watched the rain get heavier outside the building. Trees dancing along with the strong winds.

I hope she's okay. Natsu thought, as he watched for any sign of a person heading towards the building. Maybe I should cal- A flash of blonde passed by. Like on autopilot his feet brought him in front of the doors to the café, and not a minute or two he was catching this soaked person.

Despite being soaked her hair still looked like a halo. She was panting from all the running she had done and his automatic response was to embrace her. And he did.

Seconds passed.

Minutes passed.

Just like the other day she smelled a spicy scent mixed with woods, more like nature along with-

"Uhm… Thanks." Lucy mumbled, pulling away from the person which she assumed was a man. Familiar onyx eyes met her brown orbs. His pink locks mused in all directions. The familiar heat emitting from him. Fire and ashes.

"No problem, Lucy." His voice sending shivers down her spine.

"How do you know my name?" She asked, her eyes narrowing at the hand that lifted in front of her. Slowly, like he was afraid he would break her, he caressed her cheek. Cold cheeks slowly turned warm. A toothy grin escaped his lips.

"I'm Natsu."

Doki.
