Lucy's P.O.V
After Rogue and I finished taking a bath in the waterfalls, we rinsed our mud-covered clothes in the water. My only problem is I'm gonna walk all the way home with my bra and panties?! *Cries*
"But, Rogue! Do I really need to walk all the way home like this?!" I whined at Rogue who was smirking like an idiot.
"Sure…" was all he said.
I growled furiously and crossed my arms while pouting.
"You look cute when you act that way." Rogue smirked again.
I just pouted and continued to walk with him. I wish Sting and all of them are all asleep…
But no! when we arrived home they all are wide awake. I hide behind Rouge's back So that they won't see me in this outfit. Especially that idiot Sting. I blushed like the color of a tomato. They looked at me from head to toe while hiding behind Rogue's back. Well, don't exactly look at me. But I could feel their eyes on me. Or is it just imagination?
Rogue decided to take a bath together.
Timeskip:
After Rogue and Lucy took a bath together…
Okay, everyone is starting to act really, weird. Sting, Frosch and lector started acting really strange. Wanna know why? Every time Rogue and I look at them, they will start to whistle as if there's nothing happening. Ugghh… pretenders and interrupters…
Rogue and I decided to sleep while the three of them talks for the rest of the night.
Sting's P.O.V
Me, Lector and Frosch decided to talk for the rest of the night for a meeting. Hehehe…
"So, guys. We will not interrupt the two 'love birds' from now on get it?" I said in a drunken voice.
"Aye, Sting-kun" they said while handing me another bottle of rum that we found on the middle of the forest just now.
I think I find it strange to see a new bottle of rum with ribbon on it in the bushes while walking home. Somebody. Just maybe somebody must be living here in the forest and must be very rich.
I saw a bottle of Ron Zacapa hidden on the bush while heading back home. Hehehehe… I found myself a lucky person. But still, who is this mysterious person? Heh, I'll find out tomorrow…
I drank the entire bottle in one gulp. I need to drain my broken heart in rum. Yes, rum.
"Umm… Sting-kun?" the two exceeds looked at me in a worried look.
Me: STING EUCLIFFE! Let go of the bottle NOW!
Sting: *Stumbles off chair then ruffles hair* Well, here's my lovely wife… *smirks*
Me: Don't 'Lovely Wife' me! You asshole! You're drowning yourself in rum! And plus, we're not engaged yet! *scoffs*
Sting: Raven-baby! *smirks seductively and hiccups* I miss my Raven-babe!
Me: Give me that rum, and get off that floor! NOW!
Sting: Baby! Don't be so maaad~! *hands the bottle* If you're jealous of the floor all you have to do is to ask… *smirks seductively*
Me: Urgghh… I hate drunken peoples… *cross arms*
Sting: *smirks and hiccups* hey, Raven-baby have you heard the old saying: "Girls only say 'I hate you' to the boys they love"?
Me: Um, no? And I don't believe in that piece of crappy shit…. Now take a bath! You smell awful!
Sting: Wanna take a bath with me? *purrs and smirks*
Me: No thanks…
Sting: I know you want to. And it's okay, you can just watch me take a bath. *smirks seductively*
Me: And why the hell would I do the that?
Sting: *Puppy dog eyes*
Me: Fine! As long as you don't take off your damn shirt.
Sting: That's the best part, I'm gonna take off my shirt.
Me: *narrows eyebrows*
Sting: E-except my short pants…. *chuckles nervously*
Me: *sighs* Okay…. *cross arms*
xX Inside the bathroom Xx
*Awkward silence*
Me: Why do I even have to see you take a bath? *close eyes with palm*
Sting: *Hiccup* don't deny, babe. I know you want to. *smirks*
Me: No, I don't!
Sting: Then why'd ya' agree?
Me: Because you promised not to take off your pants!
Sting: Oh, yeahhh…. Raven-babe? Can you sing me a song?
Me: What?!
Sting: Pretty, pretty, please?
Me: Um, no. And I only sing when I bath or take shower… *claps mouth with free hand*
Sting: *smirks* then join me for a bath.
Me: *facepalm* Fine! I'll just sing without bathing with you… *growls furiously*
Sting: That's more like it… *smirks*
Me: Oh, shut up! And let me sing!
Sting: As you wish, babe…
Me: Oh, and what song?
Sting: Hands to Heaven.
Me: Seriously? Why did ya' picked that song?!
Sting: *smirks*
Me: Ugghh… Why did I even ask you?
Sting: Just sing it!
Me: Fine, fine, fine….
Sting: *waiting calmly*
Me: Tonight I need your sweet caress…. Hold me in the darkness… Tonight you calm my restlessness…You relieve my sadness…
xX After singing xX
Me: Satisfied? *Pants* that song is just too high…
Sting: *speechless*
Me: What's the matter? You got all over tongue tied?
Sting: Nope. It's just that I never hear your voice. And you never sing… *blushes*
Me: Oh, so compliments now, huh? Well, anyway thanks… *look at nails admiringly and smirks*
Sting: *smirks* Welcome… Sing again!
Me: Well, look at the time. *looks at invisible watch* It's running late…
Sting: Where are you going, babe?
Me: I'm gonna write my story, babe!
Sting: Okay, fine! Bye, babe!
I wrapped a towel on my waist after I took a bath. The two exceeds decided to go sleep. I went to the bedroom and lied on the bed
*hiccups* I guess I'm just too drunk… *hiccups* Now, where's my pants?
Oh, I think I'm passing out…
Raven's P.O.V
1:30 p.m
*Sighs*
It's been years since my sister, Izzy and I stayed in the forest in a big mansion. Our parents passed when we were very young and leave us with the servants. From all the places, why the forest? Our servants told us that they were probably hiding from business partners who tried to take over the company. I didn't believe them. Staying in this house in the forest was quite safe. 'Cause there is a medium-sized cement gate which is painted with peach and yellow fade. The grass was also mowed inside the gates. And has a little pool on a tiled floor outside the house. But I wasn't that interested much in swimming. I rather stay in the library and read.
I kept on wondering what's behind these walls. Spending my life inside a mansion made me feel like I'm a prisoner. Sometimes it feels like I'm trapped inside.
I learned powers too. Since I was young, I was a music dragon slayer. All years I grew being monotone. Living without parents is not that easy. All I had is my sister with me.
My sister was a Love and Grant mage. Thanks to her we all had enough food and needs without going out the forest. Which, suck 'cause I badly wanted to go to that forest.
Izzy is fifteen years old while I on the other hand, was three years older than her. And this made me eighteen.
I was reading a book with in the mansion library with headset in both of my ears when suddenly a knock came from the door.
"Knock, knock, knock."
"Come in." I made a flat glowing purple treble clef as a bookmark as I ran to the door. Just as I was hurrying the door opened and hit me in the face. Ow, f- - -…
"Raven-san, are you okay?" my little sister Izzy asked worriedly and helped me to stand up.
"Yeah, I'm fine, Izzy." I said rubbing my forehead.
"It's time for lunch." She said cheerfully as always.
"Kay. I'm gonna come down later." I said while she nodded.
"I'll wait for you. So, what are you reading? Is it some kind of a love novel?" she asked with heart-shaped eyes.
Um, I almost forgot my sister is just obsessed with couples, such as love and anything about romance.
"Um, yes. I just can't take my eyes off the pages as I read."
"How can you stand spending the rest of the afternoon here?" she looked at the books in disgust as if there is something slimy on it.
Oh, and she also hates books and libraries. Except books with romance and love.
"Well, it refreshes my mind every time I spend my time here." I said and looked around the books.
Yeah, my sister and I are like different from each other. We are the opposite…
After I finished reading like seven pages and finished the whole book, we both decided to go downstairs to have lunch. Greeted by servants, they pulled a chair gesturing us to sit down.
I always had lunch like this. And it's no fun without anyone but Izzy and I to eat. I asked our servants to sit down and eat with us. Yeah, the more the merrier.
After having lunch with our servants I headed to the music room. It's my favorite spot on the mansion. The piano is open just as I left it yesterday. I sat on the black shiny wooden piano chair. I pressed the keys. And played the notes inside my mind. Later when I knew it, I started to sing with the song inside my mind. (A/N: Actually, I got this song from Mariposa and the Fairy princess… I do not own this song! I just love it! The title: Only a breath away…)
Now the sun is up Just over the horizon I'm gonna see what I've only dreamed
The wind is in my hair
And the way's rough
But I don't really care
Just a short flight from here
I'm gonna fly on the lightest breeze
It's gonna be like the books I read
I'll write the pages to my story
It's a brand new day (Oh, oh, oh) The wind won't slow us down Just over the horizon I'm gonna see what I've only dreamed (only dreamed) Only a breath away I'm gonna see what I've only dreamed (I've only dreamed)
Only a breath away
It's just a chance to play (oh, oh, oh)
We'll chase the drafts around
They won't get in our way
Bet ya the skies are clear
I'm gonna fly on the lightest breeze (lightest breeze)
It's gonna be like the books I read
I'll write the pages to my story
It's a brand new day
Only a breath away
Only a breath away
Your light reminds me
That I have everything I need
I'm gonna fly on the lightest breeze (the lightest breeze)
It's gonna be like the books I read
I'll write the pages to my story (ah, ah, ah)
I was lost in my song I didn't even notice I was pressing the keys so hard. My sister appeared on the door with some kind of an old letter.
"Mom, wrote it." She said sadly.
Izzy handed me the letter. I read the almost faded words.
Dear girls,
Once you both had grown and finally read this letter, I just want you both to know that you may do what you please. Go on adventures! Follow your dreams! Although I can't be there to say that to you both, I am just proud of you. My daughters. I love you both. This letter will remain a secret. You may not tell anyone else. You are ready. It is sad to leave you but your father and I need to do this. But I can't tell you.
I love you both. Be safe!
Love forever,
~Mom~
Both Izzy and I cried on each other's shoulders. Suddenly a thought came to my mind. I read the letter once more and smirked.
I squealed excitedly. Izzy looked at me as though I'm insane.
"Izzy! Mom said we can do whatever we want!" I squealed. She join in the squealing moment with me.
"So, what are you gonna do?" I asked Izzy.
"I'm gonna go check out that forest."
"I'm gonna go check out that forest." We both said in unison and squealed again.
We both went to our room separate way to ready our things. I'm so excited. It's like I'm finally gonna see the whole world around. Finally I will see freedom. I dressed myself into my outfit which Izzy gave me from her 'Grant' power. Sure, Izzy got taste for fashion.
The outfit was a white legging until my knees and a gray sleeveless tank. I put on white cubic bracelet and my mother's heart locket around my neck. I placed my Ray Ban black purple sunglasses on the top of my nose. I slipped on my white pearl sandals. I let my long black-brown hair down and fling it behind my back. I put important things inside my brown Louis Vuitton bag.
Izzy wore a sleeveless sky blue top with a black leather jacket with revealing it open. She also wore gray pants until knee almost like mine. She had a black flat with white ribbon to design it. She wore our mother's white watch on her left hand. She had her white coach bag in her right hand.
Our servants looked at us as though we were insane. We told them that we were gonna explore the forest and we'll be back after a couple of days. I didn't carry much of things 'cause Izzy can just flicked one hand and poof- we got what we need.
It's gonna be so exciting!
So how's this guys? I can't believe I'm putting myself and Izzy on this Chapter. I never do this before. Well, anyways I just can't wait- wait what? Do you think this Chappie is long enough? Well, thanks for the reviews! I love you guys!
