Lisanna was kissing Natsu. On the cheek.
'Phew, I seriously thought they were kissing on the lips,' Lucy thought to herself.
Lisanna then got up to go to the restroom, and accidentally bumped into Lucy on the way there. Lucy fell and so did the food. It was all over her clothes, her hair, and her face.
"Oh, my gosh! Lucy, are you okay?" Lisanna asked, worried.
"Y-yeah, it's fine," Lucy answered as her eyes started to burn from the onslaught of tears that were threatening to spill.
"Luce! Come on, I'll go take you to...the restroom? Or...where do I take you?" Natsu said as he went over to where Lucy was sitting on the floor. "Um, just take me to the kitchen in the back. There's a restroom over there."
"Alright, then."
Natsu quickly picked Lucy up in his arms bridal style. Lucy blushed at his sudden gesture. He carried the girl to the large kitchen in the back of the restaurant. As he entered, he took Lucy to the small table in the corner if the room. She sat down on a wooden chair and looked at Natsu.
"What?"
"Why are you really here?"
"I told you, Lisanna made me come here with her."
"Why did she make you come here?"
"We're on a date."
"Oh...Alright, then. Go back to her. You can't stay here with me," said Lucy as tears started sting her eyes again.
"No, Luce. I have to take care of you since you're my best friend."
"Just your best friend, huh...?" The celestial mage whispered quietly.
"What?"
"Nothing."
"So, are you gonna change, or what?"
"Huh? Oh, yeah," the girl said as she reached for her pink duffel bag. She took out a pair of black shorts and a gray shirt that showed her shoulders. She walked to the restroom, but then remembered the food in her hair.
"I need to take a shower," the blonde told the dragon slayer who was still standing. "Uh...doesn't the owner live here? You could ask her if you can take a shower."
"You're right! But then...where's Nana?"
"She left to go buy some more ingredients," Rita said as she entered the kitchen.
"Oh, Rita. Um, can I borrow your shower please?"
"Yes, of course you can! It's upstairs. Would you like me to take you?"
"Yes, please."
"Alright, then. Follow me. You can come, too, if you'd like," the copper haired girl said as she face Natsu.
"Um, okay then."
"What about Lisanna?" Lucy hissed in Natsu's ear.
"She'll understand."
"I dunno..."
Rita led Natsu and Lucy to a hallway that was connected to the kitchen. There was a large staircase all the way at the end. Rita climbed the steps quickly, the two wizards following close behind. As they reached the last step, light flooded their eyes. There was a large living-room-like sort of area and an immense window covered the wall farthest from them. The girl with emerald green eyes continued to lead them throughout the second floor until they reached a wooden door. She opened it and it appeared to be a bedroom...?
"This was where you were going to sleep tonight," Rita turned to look at Lucy.
"Oh, okay. Thank you."
"The restroom is over there," she pointed to a door in the corner of the right side of the room.
"Thank you."
"It's fine. I should be heading back to work now," Rita said with a bright smile before she turned around and left the room.
As Lucy grabbed a towel, he kept staring at her with a weird look on his face.
"What?"
"You smell weird."
"Well, pasta, chicken, and water was just spilled all over me," the girl said in a spiteful voice.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah...all I have to do is clean myself up. There's nothing to worry about."
"You sure? I can ask Lisanna to go home so I can stay with you."
"No! What's wrong with you? Your her boyfriend! Start acting like one!"
"Geez, Luce...I was just looking out for you."
"I'm sorry, I'm just not in a good mood."
"I'll come to check on you later, alright?"
"Mhm."
Lucy walked inside the restroom and removed all of her clothing. She turned on the water and went inside of the tub. She stood there for a while and let the warm water wash away all of the mixed feelings inside of her head. She grabbed the shampoo and began to idly scrub her head. Soon enough, she got out and got dressed and then entered the bedroom that would be hers for the rest of the week. When she walked out, she was surprised to see him sitting on the edge of the bed, looking in her direction.
"Natsu...?"
"Hiya, Luce. Guess what?"
"What?"
"Lisanna just broke up with me."
HAHA! No matter what you say, I will keep leaving cliffhangers! But, you know I love you guys, riiightt? :3
