embarrassed! –Narrative

"Who is that?" Lucy repeated herself while adjusting her bright blonde hair.

"That's Raziel, I'm glad he's better. He was out cold when he first arrived on the gates of the guild." Mira glanced at Raziel and quickly turned her head back to Lucy, Mira went a shade of pink before she continued, " He's a S-class mage here in Fairy Tail. He's one of the strongest in the guild."

"I've never seen him in Sorcerer Magazine!" Lucy said kind of bashful, she didn't want to admit that she memorized almost all the issues by heart.

"He's never really been around. It's always mission after mission for him. This has been the longest I've ever seen him in a long time!" Mira sighed. She looked at Raziel.

"Has he always worn that hood?" Lucy inquired grabbing the drink that Mira had placed on the table; she slowly took a sip and studied Raziel.

"Not always. If I remember correctly, he started covering his face a few years after he joined the guild. It was so long ago, I was only a kid; I can't seem to recall his face though." Mira sighed again and rested her chin on her hand. She glanced around before leaning close to Lucy, "But around a few years ago when Raziel was about to leave the guild for his quest, he knocked into a civilian girl in front of the guild. His hood fell away from his face and at that very moment she fainted, and when Raziel left after helping her into the guild for treatment a few moments later the girl woke up and announced that he had the most beautiful face she has ever seen."

"Really?" Lucy was growing curious, but she couldn't help being skeptical. "His face caused her to faint?"

"Yeah! When the word gets out that Raziel is back many girls from the town try to test their luck and confess to Raziel, however he reject everyone." Mira whispered. Lucy really wanted to know what he looked like.

"Where you've been?" Lucy noticed Natsu's booming voice from across the room. She noticed that Natsu's rage has been settled. That's almost impossible. When Natsu's mad, he's mad. Lucy grabbed her drink and quickly drank it all, once she finished chugging her drink she proceeded towards Raziel.

"Hi, I'm Lucy! I'm new at the guild!" Lucy stuck out a friendly hand. Raziel turned to the blonde girl. He stood up straight and stuck out a hand in return. She looked down and saw that Raziel's skin was pure white, and his hands were even smaller than her own.

"Nice to meet you!" His voice chimed.

Lucy was going to ask him some questions until Natsu threw himself onto Raziel. "Fight me!" Natsu tried to get Raziel into a headlock, but never succeeded. Raziel quickly scooted towards the bar, and Lucy, Natsu and Erza followed after him. He was almost like a magnet.

"Hey, Mira."

"Welcome home, Raziel." Mira flashed a brilliant smile.

"Thanks, could I get some food and beer? I'm starved." Raziel leaned on the bar counter. Mira nodded and headed towards the basement kitchen.

"Ah, beer. So Manly!" A booming voice echoed behind the group of people at the counter.

"Hey Elfman. "Raziel responded quickly. Elfman laughed and patted Raziel on his back. A large "thud" could be heard each time Elfman's meaty hands landed on Raziel's back.

"Ow."

"Fight ME!" Natsu was standing on the counter roaring fire; " I've gotten stronger since last year. I'm not a kid anymore!"

"You finally hit puberty?" Raziel chuckled sarcastically. Gray stifled his laughter from where he was sitting on the benches.

"You laughing droopy eyes?"

"Yeah Pyro!" Gray and Natsu were both on the counter eye-to-eye, ready to fight.

"Natsu, Gray!" Erza glared at the two fighting idiots. Instantaneously they calmed down out of fear. Gray went back to his seat on the bench, and Natsu returned to challenge Raziel.

"It's here!" Mira's singsong voice broke the chatter throughout the guild. "Let me fill up a pint of beer." Mira's eyes met Erza's. They had some sort of telepathic conversation, but it wasn't long until the guild realized what was happening. Even the guild master who was returning from taking a leak was observing. Mira wanted to get Raziel to take off his hood. "Here~"

"C'mon fight me!" Natsu interrupted Mira mid sentence and attacked Raziel suddenly. Raziel was not anticipating a sudden attack, his head quickly made contact with the floor and a sharp pain pulsed throughout his body.

Natsu was proud that he finally pinned down the unbeatable Raziel, a cold feeling spread out on his back. Natsu was drenched in beer, but he barely noticed that. Under his hands was something soft. His hands were on his chest, but something was not right. Natsu always suspected that Raziel's chest would be hard and muscular since he was so strong, but it was squishy. Two round mounds protruded from his chest, they felt nice, soft, and they were rather large. Natsu gave a quick squeeze before Raziel kicked Natsu off of himself.

Raina took a few seconds to process what had happened. Was she just groped by Natsu? Her face turned a thousand shades of crimson. She quickly glanced at Natsu, who was staring at his hands. Raina hid her embarrassment and noticed that Natsu was drenched in beer. I need something to wipe him down. She quickly looked around for a towel, nothing in sight. She gripped her hood, that's it!

"Here" Raina slipped off her hood and placed it onto Natsu's wet body.

Without looking up Natsu laughed, " I can dry off my self! I can use fire magic." Natsu said with a condescending tone. " Why is everyone so quiet?" Natsu noticed the sudden silence that washed over the guild. Natsu faced towards Raziel's direction. In font of his eyes long and wavy strands of green hair tickled his nose. His eyes followed the winding roads of green hair until he saw a shimmering pair of light grey eyes star right at his.

"Sorry! I forgot." Raina helped Natsu from the ground, " you okay?" Raina stared at Natsu questionably. Natsu stared into Raziel's bright grey eyes that were covered by a thick fan of dark black lashes. Her ruby red lips repeatedly forming the question, "Are you okay?" Natsu shook his head and quickly snapped out of it.

"You're a GIRL?"

"Yas! She's always been a girl." A small black cat came from her thick wavy hair. It yawned and started, "Raina, you didn't tell them you're a girl?"

"I have to tell people? I thought people could automatically tell! Do I look that much like a boy?" Raina repeatedly touched her face.

"Raina?" Natsu spoke quietly. The rest of the guild was silent, only Natsu and Raina spoke. " I thought your name is Raziel." Natsu studied Raina's face even closer, soon they were only a few inches apart.

Raina blushed and took a step back, "Raina Raziel. Raziel is my last name." Raina awkwardly touched her neck. Has Natsu always thought that she was a boy?

"What? How did the whole entire guild think that you were a guy?" Lucy yelled, she was still new to the guild so she doesn't know the whole history of the guild members.

"I'm wondering too!" Lucky tweeted.

"Aye!" Happy flew closer to Lucky who was on the bar counter. Lucky quickly returned to Raina's shoulders, Lucky noticed that he was only half the size of Happy! Raina never told him that Happy would be this huge!

"I thought Master Makarov told you guys my name in the beginning. Since you guys only called me Raziel, I thought you guys didn't like the name Raina." Raina quickly faced Makarov. "Right, Master?"
