"Lucy!"
The Celestial mage turned around; reluctantly putting her bookmark into the novel she had borrowed from Levy. Her energetic pink-haired partner ran into the guild, waving wildly. His partner flew in after him. Happy had a mildly panicked expression on his face.
"Natsu, no!" The blue exceed cried.
Lucy crossed her arms in front of her chest. What is it this time?
Natsu stopped in front of her, a childish grin adoring his face. "I got something important to tell you!"
The dragon slayer's onyx eyes fastened onto hers. This is it, she thought, a sparkling image of Natsu appearing in her mind, a rose clenched in between his imaginary teeth, He is going to confess his love for me, and we will get married, and have 30 children who will…
"Lucy, I think I'm in love with you!" Natsu declared, hands clasping her shoulders. His tone was light, as if he was informing her that the milk had run out, or he had bought her a cake.
Oh well, no confessions to- Wait, WHAT?! Lucy's eyes widened, her face turning the same shade of pink Natsu's hair. Everyone was staring at the pair now, waiting for the outcome. Lucy's face quickly darkened to Mirajane's dress magenta, and then onto Erza's hair scarlet. Her blush hit florescent red and impossibly went one shade darker.
Lucy passed out, falling off her bar stool.
The rest of the guild collectively face palmed. Happy muttered something like "I told him you couldn't do it like that," his face buried in his paws.
Levy simply smirked, raking in the money she had earned from the betting pool. Sometimes she just had to thank God that Lucy was so inexperienced. Mira and Cana groaned, cursing the same fact and reluctantly handing over their jewels.
