Chapter Four: Gorgeous As Always
Gray deepened his fingers on his chest tying to reduce the beats his heart made. Bu-bump, it would go and it always sped up after a minute or two. He couldn't wait for Alice to come. And Lucy and Erza were grinning so wide that their face were going to stay like that. Natsu and Happy…. Well they were normal, not even laying a finger on Gray. Not that Erza was there, but just all three of them (Gray, Lucy, Erza) were so abnormal today.
"All of them are just weird. Especially Gray…" Happy whispered in Natsu's ear. Natsu grinned, chuckling behind their backs.
It was sunset and the view over the lake behind the guild was magnificent. It showed orange and fiery red colors.
All of them arrived fashionably and strolled in casually. Except Natsu and Happy… They raced to the buffet until Erza stopped them. Happy used his wings, but Erza grabbed them instantly.
"What do you think your doing?" Erza glared at them with the most evilest expression.
Natsu and Happy had the goose bumps and shivered in fear. "B-but Erza. There's fire chicken and noo- noodles."
"So?"
"Lucy promised I could have some when we get there," he whispered in a soft voice.
"I do not care whether she says so. The food is to be eaten when Serenade comes here!" she commanded. Natsu and Happy slowly walked back towards a empty table and slump back to sleep.
"I only did that to wake him up." Lucy whispered to Gray. He nodded and saw Erza's glare. Look away, he thought.
A girl with long silver white hair that was put to a ponytail walked towards them wearing a long hot pink dress that ended an inch above her knees with ruffles. She wore her cute heels that never got out of style.
"Oh, Mira-san!" Lucy exclaimed and her jaws dropped at her beautiful outfit. Mirajane twirled and sparkled under the lights. "You look beautiful!"
"Ahaha, obvious compliments, Lucy. I love that about you! Anyway, Lucy, Erza, Gray, and um- Natsu and Happy?-" she said as she glanced a worried look to the flame head and the cat. " You look amazing as I am. Ah, Natsu. You'll love how Lisanna will look like." She giggled and so did the others.
"Any news Mira?" Erza asked directly.
"Oh, yes, Erza. Sorcerer and other famous magazine businesses send out a couple of photographers. Like that other crazed person from Sorcerer…." she wondered off. That was a weird day… she thought. "I would hate that it would get on the tabloids."
"Why? They usually don't mind." Lucy assumed.
"Oh you didn't hear?" Mira asked. Lucy shook her head with a worried look. How can they not love the photographers? Capturing their every move, wait. That can be a little uncomfortable, Lucy thought. "Oh dear."
"What happened?" Erza shot out.
" The three will continue their careers, for fun. They love it. But since their joining a guild, they don't want any news about their daily lives. They have a powerful magic each inside of them. And they feel like they should use it. Oh Lucy-san, I think they have something in common with you."
Gray thought Lucy was going to be crazy, but not this time. She just made her "thinking face". Putting her hand on her chin and biting her lower lip. "Hmmm… Okay, I guess."
"Lucy!" Gray said in shock. "What-huh? What did you say?"
"Didn't you hear me, Gray? I said 'Okay, I guess'. Do you ever listen?"
"Uh, yeah. But how can you not be crazed? You go 'Omg! I love her' and this and that." Gray pointed out. "How can you just say 'Hmmm… Okay, I guess so'. What was that?" When Gray acted like Lucy, he had a girly voice…. Awkward!
"Um, hello Mr. Don't Freak Out Over Superstars! You get so stupid when I say something like that! Now did I try to make you anymore idiotic?" Lucy screamed. She cared about Gray and he didn't want to ruin his first encounter with Alice tonight. Lucy tried not to freak out.
"I guess not." he said silently. Then he burst out a complain and fought against each other.
Mira and Erza were just staring at them, confused. From time to time, they would watch them like a tennis game. They watched the person who was talking and move on with which ever turn it was.
Then a young woman with curled blue hair stepped in wearing a Spain-like dress and blue heels. She looked strict, but the look in her eyes were shy and worrisome. It was Lluvia Loxar, the girl who had a heart for Gray. She looked at both of them. If Lucy-san is fighting with Gray-sama… Does that mean they will rightfully despise each other and Gray-sama will like Lluvia. And forget about Lucy-san. Oh, happy day! she thought. She danced around happy and filled with excitement. Then she stopped herself and focused on their battle.
"Oh so you think I'll get Annabell and use her to get fame?" Lucy said offended.
"Of course!" Gray said. "I always know you want to be the poster girl for the freaking Sorcerer Weekly!"
"Stop it!" a voice rang, obviously, it was Erza. How can she just sit back and watch two of her friends brutally fight over some stupid argument? "I cannot accept this behavior! Do not blame it on each other! I expect the best out of you two! Now… APOLOGIZE!"
Erza's last word was meaningful. Apologize. But it did give them the goose bumps and apologized each other right away. Their faces were sad and Lucy ran and hugged Gray. He blushed, again. "I-I'm sorry, Gray. I again apologize for being such a fame wannabe."
"A fame wannabe? No, Lucy. You have fame right there. I apologize, too, dearly. Now how about we welcome some friends?"
Lucy nodded and let go of Gray. Well that ended Lluvia's evil prediction.
The sun was no longer on the sky, the moon replaced it. It was silver and Lucy thought she saw the man in the moon. The spotlights were ready and band of screaming fans gathered in the entrance. A red carpet was set up and it was like a movie premiere.
Oh, guys I'm so sorry that I can't get to the point where those three superstars come! Go to the next chapter. I'll update it after I update this.
And remember "Alice" isn't my real name. And the girl Alice is not based on me if you think so. Please review after reading this chapter. And I'll update on random days. J
