"Alright, we're on the third chapter of Surfer's Love!" Mira announced as everyone huddled together in a hug circled in the middle of the guild.

It was raining Happys and Plues outside, so everyone decided they needed a story like this one to brighten up their rainy day.

"Here we go," Lisanna sighed happily.

"We're down to the last 2 contenders!" the man shouted into the speakers. "Who will win? Will it be Sting Eucliffe? Or Natsu Dragneel?"

"Should we get a bet going?" Cana asked with sparkling eyes, her hands around a steaming mug of spiked apple cider.

"They're both formidable surfers who have earned a great reputation in the sport! Why don't we speak to them and see what they're thinking?"

"Natsu already knows," Happy said. "He can read minds, remember?"

I watched the speaker man walk over to Sting and Natsu who were both stretching their muscles. When he reached them he shoved the microphone into Sting's face, the cameramen following close behind.

"I wouldn't stand for that," Lucy shook her head.

"Sting Eucliffe, do you think you will be winning today's competition?" Sting stopped what he was doing and a smug smile spread across his face as he stared at the camera.

"Here we go," the blonde groaned.

"Well...you see, it's not really a matter of thinking, it's more like I know I'm gonna win. I'm not really gonna say my surfing skills are unbeatable, but they're definitely something."

"Can you say 'cocky'?" Lisanna snorted.

I smacked my lips. What a show off.

"I said it," Lucy cheered.

The speaker nodded his head. "I see your pretty confident, Eucliffe. Let's see what Natsu Dragneel has to say." He walked over to Natsu and shoved the microphone in his face. "Dragneel, do you feel that you're gonna win this?"

"Does anybody else picture the guy saying 'cooolllll!'?" Natsu asked. The entire guild as a whole raised their hands.

Natsu shrugged his shoulders. "What happens; happens. But...I did make a promise to someone, and I told them I would definitely win this.—

"He really doesn't break promises," Mira mused.

"Because keeping promises is MANLY!" Elfman shouted.

—But, even if I do lose. As long as I tried my best and had fun, then I'll be happy."

"But I'm Happy," Happy swung his head to look at the Dragon Slayer.

Natsu smiled widely at the camera and waved at the girl spectators. They all squealed in delight. I was actually feeling pretty good too. I mean he was talking about me. Me. Lucy Heartfilia. On national TV! I didn't know if I should be anxious or screaming with joy. But I really liked what Natsu said.

To be honest, I don't really care if he wins or not—

"That sounds mean to me," Levi commented.

—Like he said, as long as he had fun and tried his best, I'll be happy for him. I mean, he doesn't just have to win for me.

"Sting Eucliffe is up! Now it's time for him to show off his moves!" The speaker man shouted into the microphone. I'm guessing its starting now.

Sting takes his board and paddles through the water. When a wave comes, he stands on his board to steady himself. Then he rides on top of the waves and swerves through it, keeping balance, causing a big dip to appear.

"Ohhh! And Sting Eucliffe has made a Bottom Turn!"

"I'm sick of water," Happy mumbled.

"Juvia likes you to know she is completely composed of water!" the Rain Woman yelled across the circle.

He glides around in the wave, holding himself steady. Then all of a sudden, the wave starts to get bigger and bigger till its curving over him so that he's in a thing that looks like a tunnel.

"Ooh, is he gonna get put under?" Happy asked.

"Eucliffe has just gone into Barrel! Will he bail or decide to follow through the wave?" The speaker man shouts

Sting disappeared into the tunnel, which I had just found out was called a "barrel". A few seconds later, he rode out gripping the end of his board. He sailed back to shore and stepped off his surfboard.

"You guys, I wanna try doing this next time we go to a beach," Gray announced.

"I bet I could stay on the board longer than you!" Natsu scoffed.

"Wanna bet?' the ice mage leaned forward.

"I'll be taking them," Cana said, holding out her hands.

He walked onto the sand towards Natsu. "Beat that." He whispered in his ear. I saw Natsu smirk.

The judges tallied up Sting's performance points. "Sting Eucliffe gets an 8.3! Natsu Dragneel is up next!"

Natsu turned around briefly and I sent him thumbs up. He grinned at me and returned the gesture. Then he grabbed his board and pedaled into the water.

"Who else thought of Natsu on a bike with little water pedals?" Levi asked.

"I think it's just you dear," Mira said after a minute of silence.

As soon as a wave came, he steadied himself on his board. I crossed my fingers tightly. This was nerve wracking!

He began to swerve on the wave and made a sharp turn making a deep rift in the water. It was similar to what Sting did.

"Natsu Dragneel has made a Bottom Turn!"

Natsu rides up to the top of the wave, grabs the front end of his board, and flips into the air landing back into the water, gracefully.

"When is Natsu ever graceful?" Lisanna asked.

"Even if it's rare, I've seen it," Lucy told her.

"Really?" Levi asked. "When has he ever been?"

"Whenever it's snowing and you're on an iced lake. We were out on said lake, right? Well, there was a hot cider and cookies stand on the other side of the lake we were trying to ice-skate at. He went all the way across the lake in a matter of seconds, he passed an ice-skating competition and won it, not to mention cleaned out the whole vender's cart."

"Wow," Levi hummed. "You'd think we would have melted the ice…"

"I never said I made it off safely. I fell through the thinned ice, getting a nasty cold," the blonde revealed.

"We all gotta say that was pretty cool!" The speaker man shouted. Everyone started clapping and cheering in agreement. Another barrel wave forms and Natsu disappears from sight. We sit there in silence as we wait a few seconds and Natsu still doesn't come out.

"Uh, oh! Where has Dragneel gone? The wave is about to break and there is still no sign of him!"

"Aliens. It was aliens."

I started to get scared. Where was he? I stared as the opening got smaller and smaller. I cupped my hands around my mouth.

"Natsu, I know you can win!" I shouted. "I believe in you!"

A millisecond before the wave crashes down, I see a head of pink hair that just barely makes it through the small gap that was left of the wave.

He rides back down swerving to make deep gashes in the water's surface.

"Dragneel carves the waves and does the Drop-In! How cool is that?" The speaker man oohs and awes.

"It is Jason!" Erza gasped.

Natsu makes his way back to shore, drenched in water, panting heavily. He walks over to the bench they set up for all the surfers to rest on.

My fingers were still crossed because I was really hoping that he won. After about 20 minutes, I hear a man clear his throat into the speakerphone.

"Didn't your fingers cramp, Lucy?" Happy cocked his head.

"Maybe I loosed the grip."

"After much debate with the judges we have decided on the winner of the Annual Shirahima Surfing Competition!"

A lot of applauding is heard throughout the beach. "And the winner is...

Natsu Dragneel! He comes out with the highest score of 8.7!"

"I would settle for anything lower than a twenty seven!" Natsu shouted.

"That's impossible," Happy shook his head.

I raised my fists up into the air and cheered doing a victory dance. Everyone applauded. Some surfers congratulated Natsu or shook his hands.

Sting threw down his surfboard and stomped off. He was obviously mad and not happy with the results. What a sore loser.

"Since he talked so big, it was obvious he was going to get beaten into the ground," Gajeel noted.

One of the judges walked over to Natsu and placed a gold medal over his neck, then congratulated and shook hands with him. The part that hung around his neck was blue with some kind of white writing on it. He turned to me and smiled. I thought of this as my cue and ran over to him.

"Did you forget about the murderous fan girls, Lu-chan?" Levi asked.

"I can hold my own!" the blonde shouted defensively.

"Wow! That was so cool, Natsu!" I gushed. "I had no idea you could surf so well!" I eyed him in amazement, smiling widely.

"I thought you had more confidence in me than that," Natsu huffed.

"Water isn't exactly your best element," Lucy told him, patting his back lightly.

He slightly blushed and scratched the back of his head. "It's not really a big deal. I mean I've been surfing since I was little." Then he looked down at me and smiled widely. "I told you I would win, didn't I?"

I laughed lightly. "You sure did."

He then placed his hand on his chin and looked up thoughtfully. "Do I get anything for winning this?"

I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. "You go a medal didn't you?"

I saw a smirk ease its way onto his face. "I mean... from you."

"There you go Natsu!" Cana whooped. "Get it!"

My eyes widened in shock. "Something from me?" He nodded his head and had a weird smile on his face.

"Uh-huh."

I narrowed my eyes a bit at him. "Like what?"

"How about we hang out tomorrow? Just me and you."

"It's a date!" Levi squealed.

"No it isn't!" Lucy waved her hands in front of herself frantically. "I wouldn't date Natsu!"

"Why not?" He huffed.

Lucy stared at him with a blank face. "You eat every piece of food you can get your hands on, you destroy everything in your path—"

A/N Hallo again!

And the list goes on...

Blaze-chan! Thank you so much, once again, for letting me use your awesome story! You get a cup of Cana's cider! It's still a little hot, careful!

I have a legit excuses for being late with this chapter!

1. I got a job working for my father. He's fun to work for, since it's doing something I love (Writing articles for websites), but it makes me super busy.

2. My grandmother broke her back. It may sound wierd, but she bent over to tie her shoe, but she coughed and completely cracked the L-13 or something like that... So we've been having to take care of her

3. I have felt like shit the entire week. Sorry for cursing, but it's true.

4. I. have. so. much. homework. Psychology is killing me.

Alright, enough with my drama, or whatever.

I swear, I'll try to get these updates on time in the future!
