Hello my stars! SURPRISE random chapter update. I figured it was time for me to stop moping around and get my lazy ass back to working on these updates and working on this chapter. I am immensely thankful that so many of yall stuck around for the story and I promise that I am working on bettering myself and working on me. So that being said lets just get started. **I DO NOT OWN FAIRY TAIL, OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS JUST THE STORY**
Lucy woke up with a deep sigh as she rolled over, stretching out her body like a plank as she did. Her eyes cracked open and she groaned as she laid there for a little longer. Looking at the clock it read 7:56 am. Staring at the clock with an amused look on her face she closed her eyes and sighed once more before pushing herself up into a sitting position. Glancing around the room she noticed that Ever was still sleeping, snoring softly causing her to let out a light chuckle. Pushing the blankets back she slowly shimmied out of the bed her feet touching the carpeted floor of the hotel room. Staring at her feet before shaking her head she got up and moved to her stuff, searching through the bag looking for some decent clothes.
Bosco was absolutely gorgeous, but it was hot. Everyone here lived for the sun and were all a gorgeous tan, with some dark hair whether it'd be a dark blue, dark purple or black. She was a little confused on why the mayor of Bosco would send a mission like this to Fairy Tail when Bosco has a guild called White Sea. Lucy hasn't been to Bosco much but she knows enough to know the important details. Bix was, well still is, from Bosco. First time she visited Bosco, she nearly had a heart attack with the amount of skin exposure and how just open everyone is. She got to meet Bixs family as well, which was an awkward time for her but that's a story for another time.
Grabbing a pair of lace navy bra and thong she made way to the bathroom rubbing her face as she wished she could still be asleep. Stepping into the bathroom she did her business, then began her shower. She hummed softly as she stood under the steaming hot shower slowly beginning to fall asleep again before she shook her head, snapping herself awake. She washed her hair, body and face before she got out. Lucy wrapped a towel around her waist before she made her way back to her bag to grab her toothbrush and toothpaste to brush her teeth. After she brushed her teeth, she grabbed a pair of blue jean shorts and a tight black long sleeve shirt. She knew she was gonna be hot but she looked nice. Calling out Cancer, she let him put her hair into a half up, half down style. She grabbed her belt putting it on the hooking her keys on it, making sure they are secure. Moving her way to the door she grabbed a pair of black and white nike tennis shoes and put them on before making her way out.
Before she could get to far she ran right into a wall… well a chest but from how hard she hit it, and she didn't even hit it hard, it felt like a wall. Grunting she began to fall, her eyes closing preparing herself to hit the ground before a pair of hands wrapped around her waist keeping her up right. Peeking one eye open, Lucy looked at the ground before turning to look at whoever had caught her only for her breath to be caught in her throat. The man that caught her was the man that was constantly on her mind. He was sporting a part of navy blue basketball shorts, along with a black tank top that just had her basically drooling from how well it showed off his muscles. The sides of the tank top were cut half way down so it was loose and flowy.
"Well, I see you've finally fallen for me" he snickered causing her to blush before a smirk of her own appeared on her face.
"Oh you have no idea" she chuckled as he lifted her up while raising an eyebrow. She could tell he wanted to ask her but he decided against it.
"Anyway, what are you doing up so early?" she spoke softly so that she didn't wake the others up
"Oh, i'm a morning person cosplayer… well for the most part I am. What about you, what's got ya up so early?" bix spoke as he leaned against the wall eyeing her
"Oh, I was gonna go get some breakfast and then head to see the mayor. I know everyone agreed to join and would probably want to go along but you guys just finished a mission so I figured I'd let everyone sleep and rest up longer while I go." she smiled
"Well… since I'm up let me go with you." as he finished her mind was in a slight shock.
'Bix wants to go with me?' She shook her head, 'he probably just wants to go with me so I don't get lost or hurt or something. That's right,' she nodded to herself internally. 'Bix is just being nice is all.'
"Player? Cosplayer?! Helloooooo is anyone in thereeeee?" when she snapped back bix was waving a hand in front of her face with a playful grin on his face.
"Yes yes I'm here, why? Scared i'll leave you?" she chuckled before she gave him a warm smile, "and yes, you can go with me"
"Cool, just lemme grab my good shoes and we can go." he spoke as they walked back to his room so he could throw on some better shoes, because right now all the seith mage had on was… crocs. " and as for your question, yes. I am scared you'll leave me." bix muttered under his breath so she couldn't really hear it… so he thought.
Lucy's face blushed lightly and her heart skipped a beat. 'That was so cute..' she thought while she watched him put on his shoes. Once he was done they made their way out of the hotel and down the street to a nearby cafe called Three Little Birds. Once they got inside, Lucy couldn't help but let a smile grow across her face. The cafe was cute, had people like little kids and teenagers singing and dancing around along with nothing but laughter and positivity in the air. Looking at Bix, who was already looking at her, she waved her hand light signaling a 'come on'
Once they ordered they sat down, waiting patiently for their food. Lucy watched as Bix looked around before chuckling.
"What?" she asked with a little tilt to her head.
"Nothing cosplayer." he winked at her causing her to pout, "ohhh c'mon now don't pout. Hey. no. stop that. Cosplayer it's not fair. God dammit fine fine." he sighed as she let a small cheerful victory knowing her pout still works.
"When I was a kid I used to come here a lot. It was one of my favorite places… somewhere where I could just be myself without having to worry about what everyone thought of me or staring at me. I was just me.. Bickslow Pradesh not Bix the perv but… unfortunately this place burnt down and all the memories I had here were gone. I mean yeah it's rebuilt and stuff but.. I don't know to me, nothing is as good as the original is." he spoke softly as he looked at her. He could see understanding in her eyes along a tint of sadness and happiness. The happiness he could only assume it was because he told her something about himself that he never has.
"I can relate. There was this park that I absolutely loved going to for the longest time. It meant the world to me because it was a place where I could go and just pretend. Whether I pretended to be a princess or a mermaid it was a place that i could call my own and after awhile, unfortunately, the land was bought and it was turned into a restaurant. All my memories from that one special place gone. But Bixy, to me you'll always be a pev" she chuckled but froze as she saw a frown appear on his face, "okay not what I meant. I meant that you will always be you. To me, you being a perv is also what makes you… well YOU. To me, you are Bickslow Pradesh. You are a perv, you are strong, funny, carefree but can be serious when you want too, loyal, and just a down to earth guy and any girl would be lucky to have you. Bixy, you are you. And if people think you're just Box the perv then fuck the,. They don't deserve your kindness. Because at the end of it all, you are a beautiful human being." she gave bix the warmest and most loving smile she could before placing money down on the table for both of them.
Throughout all of that their food did show up adns he had eaten while she talked. Once she placed the money down she stood up, glancing at the seith mage who looked like he'd seen an angel. Chuckling he nodded her head to the door, "come on, let's get going" she spoke gently before turning around and walking out the door.
Bickslow got up and followed after her, his heart hammering in his chest because that was the nicest thing anyone has ever said to him. She made him feel like he was wanted. She made him believe that he could be himself around her and he loved it. He loved teasing her despite how mad shed get. He loved hearing her laugh and seeing her smile. And his babies? God his babies knew that he was a sucker for her and she… she loved him babies. She didn't treat them like they were monsters or weirdos, no Lucy… Lucy let them be who they were too. She really was Light of Fairy tail. She was his light and he adored her honestly admitting it to himself maybe loved her but… he couldn't have her.
Smiling they both made their way to the mayor's house, both of them having each other on their minds. As they began to see the house, Lucy's lacrima began to ring. Looking down at it she noticed it was Laxus calling.
"Hellooooooo?" she immediately said as she answered
"Blondie where the hell are you? And have you seen bickslow?" Laxus grunted
"Easy there light bulb," he growled causing her to roll her eyes, "i'm on my way to mayor right now and as for bixy he's right here" she turned the lacrima to Bickslow
'What's up Boss Man!" he smiled sticking his tongue out before laughing
"Why didn't you wake us up? We could have gone together, I mean hell blondie we told you we'd join you on this mission. Also why is Bix with you?" Laxus frowned as he didn't know how he felt about having Lucy alone with the seith mage. Yes he can hold her own and take care of herself but Bickslow, well he was a perv. He's been through a lot of shit but at the end of the day to Laxus, he's slept with way to many people and he doesn't want Lucy to be one of those one night stands. Laxus knows that Bix likes the little blonde celestial wizard but he couldn't fully tell if it was infatuation or just lust.
"I didn't wake you up because you guys had just finished a mission yesterday, I can handle at least going to the mayor's house by myself. Bix wasn't even supposed to be here. I ran into him as I was leaving and he wanted to join along. I wanted you guys to rest up and heal up some more before we go to take the dark guild down. I will call you guys and fill you in once the meeting is over. For now, just eat some breakfast, because had some earlier, and just relax. Okay sparky? Good. bye now!" before he could respond Lucy hung up the phone tossing it back into her pocket before taking a deep breath still following the seith mage.
Once they got to the mayor's house, they knocked and waited for someone to answer. Once someone opened the door they noticed a very shy and timid maid, who blushed lightly at the sight of Bickslow.
"Hello… may I help you?" she spoke softly that they had to strain themselves to hear
"Ah yes, my name is Lucy Heartfilia, and this is my teammate Bickslow Pradesh, other team members are back at the hotel resting but we are here because of a request about a dark guild?" Lucy watched the way the girls eyes widen and nodded opening the door more before pausing
"If you don't mind may I see your guild marks?"
"Oh yes, of course." Lucy lifted her right hand showing her light pink guild mark while Bix just stuck his tongue out causing the poor girl to turn redder than Erza's hair, if that was possible.
"Come in, come in" she waved them in and began to show them the way to the mayor's office. Once they reached the office they glanced at each other before stepping in, moving to take a seat at the Mayor's request
"I'm just gonna get straight to the point. There has been a dark guild that has been non stop attacking small areas of Bosco and stealing things from the citizens. Their guild name is called Midnight. They have various images of all ranks and the leader of the guild is a very powerful water mage," with this Lucy and Bickslow chuckled and nodded their head standing up.
"Thank you so much Mayor, we have enough information. We will be back later today to collect the reward" Bickslow spoke as he began to walk to the door opening it for Lucy.
"I wasn't done. You don't know where they're located and how do you even plan to try to get rid of them today?" the Mayor asked in confusion and a bit frantic.
"We'll be fine on our own for the first question, and for the second question… well… it's simple," Lucy smiled and winked, "we're Fairy Tail" and with that the two of them walking out of the mayor's house.
As they made their way back, Lucy called Laxus and filled him in on everything that happened and they agreed to meet back up at the little cafe that her and Bix were just at, the poor dark guild not knowing about the badass fairies coming their way.
