Chapter 14: Confession

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Fairy Tail, Hiro Mashima does. Enjoy!

Lisanna sat in her lounge chair in the Fairy Girls dorm. She was so close to confessing. A gentle sigh escaped her lips. She could do this! It shouldn't be hard, right? There's always that small chance where he could return her feelings. Then they could fall in love even more, get married, and have children. It was a dream she's had since she was a child. To marry the one she loves. She just can't get Natsu off of her mind. He's such a dumb, caring, goofball. He's also really good with children and is attractive in both looks and personality.

Dreamily, she sighed. If only...

There were two knocks on her door. It wasn't loud, it was very quiet. Maybe one of the exceeds? She headed towards her door as she checked the time. Late at night, 10 p.m. Which exceed would be here at her door then? It could be Charle or PantherLily or Happy. Okay, maybe not PantherLily, but still. Opening the door quietly, she gasped as she didn't see the exceeds, but standing there was...

"Natsu! What are you doing here in the girls' dormitory? Boys aren't supposed to be here!" She scolded in a quiet voice, pulling him in quickly as she glanced out in the hall before locking her door. She did not need a tired, angry Erza after her.

He sheepishly grinned at her, "Eh... I just wanted to visit ya." Her dead-panned look asked him to go further on. "Ya know, say thanks n' all."

Lisanna smiled softly. He is such a great guy. "No problem. I just don't like to see you upset." She sincerely said, watching him sit down on the ground.

"Hey, Lis, weren't ya gonna to tell me something back at my house? I was pretty sure ya were." His brows furrowed a bit. His emotions always showed up on his face. Whether he was upset, angry, happy, or confused. It all showed. She admired that, to be honest.

"O-Oh um..." C'mon Lisanna! You can do it! "Right! What I was going to say was..." Say it! I love you! Three simple words, Lisanna! "I love..." He's looking at you weirdly! Retreat! Retreat! "You... nicorns! Unicorns!" Failed mission.

Confusion was still written on his face until it completely washed away when he gasped like an over-excited child. "I LOVE UNICORNS, TOO! Although, Lucy tells me that there's this animal called a narwhal that's a whale that has a horn like a unicorn! It's a unicorn in disguise! But Lucy tells me it's not..."

Once again, her courage escaped her grasp. Damn, she was so close... "Lucy is right. They are not unicorns in disguise, it's just a whale trying to be a unicorn." She giggled evilly. Tricking Natsu was so easy. Way easier than confessing. Sometimes...

His eyes glowed, "No way!" She nodded, giggling at his wild and child-like expressions. "That's awesome! How come Lucy never told me that?"

Lisanna shrugged her shoulders, "I'm not sure. Maybe Lucy doesn't know yet?" She suggested, earning a frown from Natsu.

"But Lucy's really smart. She should know that since she's weird!" He exclaimed a little bit too loudly. She really had to quiet him down. She was not in the mood to get kicked out of the dorm. Her and Mira were having a bet to see how long she could live by herself, and she was not going to lose because of Natsu.

"I thought you said that she's dumb?" Lisanna knew herself that Lucy was very smart, same with Levy. But she could still count the times when Natsu had said the blonde was dumb. Of course, she also remebered Lucy's hilarious reactions. Good times...

"Well, I can't let Luce know that she's smart! It'll just feed her ego. I mean, she already knows that I said she's beautiful so I can't let her know that I think she's smart!" Oh he regretted saying that.

This made Lisanna perk up. Did Natsu just call Lucy beautiful? "You think she's beautiful?"

His cheeks dusted pink. "So what? I say it one time, people! And I was drunk so it doesn't matter!" He whined. "Stupid Gray... getting me drunk with fire whiskey..." Natsu muttered, cursing at the 'stupid Ice-Queen'.

"Natsu..." The next words that came out of her mouth felt as if she was betraying herself. But she had to know. "Do you like Lucy?"

He hid his cheeks in his scarf, "Of course I do. She's my best friend..." The heat in her bedroom increased. She bet his cheeks were flaming by now. Maybe brighter than his flames. Heh. That was funny. Lisanna grinned at her joke, earning another weird look from her child-hood friend.

"I know you know what I mean. Do you like Lucy?" No response. Was he hesitating? Was this a bad topic for him or something? She didn't want to make him upset! "You don't have to answer if you don't want to!" She quickly reassured.

"I..." He paused briefly. "Don't tell anyone I'm saying this, Lisanna." He gave her his serious eyes, begging her to promise.

"I won't tell anyone." She promised.

He nodded before gulping audibly. His hands dug into his beloved scarf. Dammit, of course it came to this. He was extremely nervous. What if Lisanna says he doesn't belong with Lucy and to quit on the blonde? What if she tells him that Lucy won't love him back because she is his best friend? But this was Lisanna. She would be comforting. Like how she's always been.

"I don't like her."

Lisanna felt guilty over the way she relaxed and felt relieved. How selfish could she be?! But... She actually has a chance with Natsu. To be with the man she loves... At the same time, why would he be blushing and freaking out about that? Yet, she grinned at him, "You got me worked up there for a seco-"

"I love her!" He blurted out, burying his entire face into his scarf. The white haired mage could hear him muttering into the accessory.

"...What?" In total shock, she froze. Natsu... Natsu loves Lucy... This couldn't be right, this was Natsu! Maybe he's saying he loves her as nakama. Right? No. He truly does love the blonde mage. He was basically creating a pool in her room by his sweat!

"I love Lucy more than I should... Okay? Don't go makin' me repeat stuff..."

"What do you mean more than you should?" The man she loves... loves another. Someone other than her... It could've been worse; she could've confessed already. Just think about what that would cause...

His face reappeared, chewing on his lip as one hand gripped the cloth around his neck even more harder. "I shouldn't love her this way. She's my best friend! I should love her like I do with the rest of you. Like Happy, and you." Her heart slowed. Lisanna was utterly upset. But she was not going to let Natsu go down this drain with her. If she wasn't allowed to make him happy, she'll be sure to help him get happy. Help him to achieve his dream. Help him with Lucy. It's the only right thing to do, right?

"Natsu..."

"I know she doesn't love me back. I... I'm stupid, but I'm not stupid enough to tell her that. It'd just be awkward and embarrassing!"

Lisanna thought for a moment, leaving a very quiet pause. "Well, what do you want?" She murmurred, looking down at her feet.

He cheekily grinned at his friend. "Food."

Lisanna shook her head. "Natsu, don't change the subject. What type of relationship do you want with Lucy?"

The pink-haired dragon slayer let out a deep sigh. "Dunno."

She could tell by the movement of his eyes and his fidgeting that he did know what he wanted. She stared him down, trying to get him to tell her the truth. It was as if cracking a code or opening a lock. You need the right key to enter the door. Right now, she wanted to open the door to his thoughts. But what was the key to open it?

"Fine! Jeez, you don't have to stare me down like that." Natsu shivered, "It's creeepyyy."

Lisanna giggled. The key was her stare-down? That was pretty simple. At the same time, she is related to Mira. "So? Tell me what you want with your beloved mate."

He instantly went red. "M-Mate?"

"Yeah. Like a lover?" She suggested to him, earning more of his nervous habits. "What does it mean to you?"

"Nothing!" He said all too quickly, stuffing his face into his scarf again. "It's mean absolutely nothing to a dragon slayer!" Such a terrible liar. She would have to ask Levy for help on dragon slayer behavior. Maybe the little bookworm had literature about words and behavior of Dragon Slayers.

"Just tell me already! Pleaseeee!"

"I'm not telling you what mate means!"

"I wasn't asking about the mate thing..."

"..."

"..."

"I knew that..."

"Just tell me!" She begged, using her puppy eyes and quivering lip.

"I... I want to bring her on dates. Something romantic? I dunno. I want to kiss her and hug her as long as I can. Just... hold her in my arms so I can never lose her. Maybe propose to her and marry her someday..." He started to get confident with his words, a small smile that started to widen by each thought. "To see Lucy say 'I do' to me as we go on our honeymoon. Then kids. I can see Lucy being a great mother. I know she'll be an amazing wife." A sad look appeared on his face. Oh no, he was doubting himself.

"Hey, hey! Don't give me that look! It will be just a matter of time when she realizes your feelings and returns them. It's all about patience."

"How do I get her return them?"

"Make her fall in love with you. Just be yourself. You're amazing just the way you are!"

His eyes glowed, "Really?"

"Really." She stated in a matter-of-factly voice. Yes! Operation: Get Natsu to confess! "Now, what's this about the word mate?"

"Uh... Erm... GOTTA GO! BYE LISANNA!" With that, he unlocked her window, (he was going to enter her room by her window but it was locked, so he went through the hall's window like a ninja earlier) and jumped out of it as he ran away as fast as he could. Hm, looked like he was heading towards the guild.

Natsu was flustered. Dear God was he flustered.

He entered the guild, looking around the area for his mate. NO. NOT MATE. DAMMIT LISANNA. Looking around for his blonde partner. He had told her that he was going to say thanks to Lisanna about her help, but he overstayed his visit. When he spotted the blonde, he grinned. She fell asleep at the bar. He was no longer flustered. For now. He hoped...

"Mira! Get me some to-go food." He called out at the bar-maid who grinned and went to the back to gather food.

"Natsu! Lucy fell asleep really quickly! She's an old-fart!" The blue exceed hovered above said blonde, pointing at her as he giggled evilly.

"Mmm. She's pretty young." Oh shit- "for an old lady who's 400 years old!" They both chuckled, Natsu fidgeting once more. That was a close one.

"Here you go, Natsu! Be safe on your way home!" Mirajane said, passing a bag that was huge and filled with different foods.

Natsu handed the bag to Happy, who struggled greatly with it, and walked to Lucy, grabbing her and placing her over his shoulder. His arm had a firm grip on her small waist. He waved happily to Mira, saying goodbye as they all left to go home.

On their way home, Natsu caught a glimpse of her red, lacy underwear. If he were to lie, he would say it was a weird item. But if he were to tell the truth, oh the dirty things that would come out of his mouth. That's a big no-no. Especially in front of Lucy. In front of the girl who doesn't love him the way he does to her. That would just be a disaster.

"Natsu?" Happy's voice dragged him out of his kinda-perverted thoughts.

"Yeah, little buddy?" He softly spoke, careful not to wake up Lucy with his normal, booming voice.

The exceed looked over to his best-friend, a serious look on his cat features. "You love Lucy, right?"

Natsu let out a sigh as he gave a thumbs up to the cat with a sad smile. He would get Happy's opinion on the situation as well. So maybe he could get some more advice out of Lisanna and Happy. That could totally help him get lucy to love him.

Arriving at the house, Natsu set Lucy down in their bed. No... Not their bed. It was his bed. Oh, but he loved to say their bed. As if they were together. As if they were in love. But it couldn't be true. It was too good to be true.

"Goodnight, Natsu!" Happy said, flying through his little door to his own room. The door shut behind him, a slam coming from the little door. How did Lucy not wake up to that? At the same time, she was snoring heavily.
Natsu closed his door, stripping out of his clothes and changing into clean sweats. He didn't care that he was in Lucy's vision, she wasn't awake anyways so it doesn't matter. Right? He put on a black, long sleeve cotton shirt, feeling warm and snug in it. To be honest, he was glad that Lucy convinced him to wear these clothes she bought for him. They were really comfortable, oddly enough...

The rustling sounds of sheets moving filled his ears. He looked over to where Lucy was laying. He bent down to her level, watching her face. Was she awake? He poked her nose, seeing it twitch as her brows furrowed a bit. He poked her nose again, a little bit rougher this time. She grunted. Natsu poked her forehead before poking her nose, basically jabbing it now. Her hands moved to her face, trying to sway it away like a fly. Finally her eyes opened.

"Natsu! What the hell?" Her voice was not raspy as it would be if she were to be woken from sleep right away. Did that mean she was watching him?

"Were you watching me get naked? Wow, Luce. You're such a perv." He teased, poking her nose again. She flinched.

"I'm not a perv! You are! You're the one who's undressing in front of a girl!"

"I thought you were asleep!"

"I was not! I woke up not too long ago to see you shirtless. Then I noticed I was here so I tried to go back to sleep, but that didn't work!"

Natsu hummed, climbing into bed. Ah, the warmth and comfort of the bed! It also had the scent of Lucy on it to make it better.

"Natsu?" She whispered, her back still facing him.

"Hm?"

"Can... Can you make the bed warmer or something? I'm really cold and-"

"Perv."

Lucy groaned as she then closed her eyes, shivering a bit before falling asleep. He watched her quietly, pretending to be asleep until she was. Wrapping an arm around her waist as he brought her closer, he sighed into her golden hair.

"I would love to make you warm, Luce." He whispered, sighing softly afterwards.

Happy woke up to the sounds of grunts and whining in the next room. The blue feline jumped out of his small bed, rubbing his eyes as he yawned. What was going on next door? He slowly flew to his door, opening it as he looked out into the living room. It was still dark which meant it was late at night or very early in the morning. The grunts and whining were more audible to his now perked up ears. It was coming from Natsu's room.
He placed his ear next to Natsu's closed door. They... Those two weren't doing anything bad in there, right? Lucy wasn't trying to kill Natsu, again... He hoped.

"Dammit, Lucy." Happy gasped as he put a paw to his mouth. This was not happening! They were not having sex right now! Not while he was supposed to be asleep! That's nasty! But what if they're not? There has to be some type of explanation for this, right?

"Natsuuuu. Hurry up!"

"This is gonna take a while, Luce."

What. The. Hell.

Happy couldn't believe. His virgin of a father was no longer a virgin! Oh, he couldn't wait to tell Mira this! She would be so happy! But listening to them like this was nasty! Really, really nasty!

"Natsuu, it's stuck! I'm getting worried..."

"It's your fault for moving around so much at night! Now look at the position you're in!" Happy could hear him chuckle, "Does it feel good?"

"Shut up, idiot! And stop shaking it!"

"Ah, such young, bold love! I can't handle this. I wonder if Charle is awake..." Happy thought aloud, leaving his home to go see his beloved Charle.

(What really was going on inside Natsu's room.)

"Dammit, Lucy." Natsu grunted, groggily opening his eyes, AGAIN. She had been whining at him this whole time and it seemed like she wouldn't stop. It got to the point where it had turned annoying.

The blonde whimpered, tugging at the hair that was stuck in between the mattress and the headboard. She had already told him that her hair has been stuck, yet he didn't care. Now it looked utterly hilarious. She tugged at it once more before Natsu wrapped his hand around hers, helping her tug her hair. It was literally stuck in between. How the hell does hair get stuck between a headboard and a mattress?! Ah, the wonders of living with a girl. A weird girl, that is.

"Natsuuuu. Hurry up!" She exclaimed, both of them tugging harder at her hair. Damn, this was hurting her badly, but she did not want to show weakness now! Lucy loved her hair dearly and took care of it so well! So this is what she gets for being such a good person to her hair?

"This is gonna take a while, Luce." He got out of the bed, the springs squeaking as his body weight left. He would have to move the mattress in order to help her with her hair.

"Natsuu, it's stuck! I'm getting worried..." Lucy lowly whimpered, wanting to cry. This was her hair for God's sake! Why would her hair betray her?!

He moved the mattress with a grunt of effort, wanting to make a joke about how heavy Lucy is, but now was not the moment. "It's your fault for moving around so much at night!" He scolded, knowing her habits of moving around A LOT at night. "Now look at the position you're in!" Lucy frowned, hearing a chuckle from Natsu. Here she is, about to cry her heart out while he laughs at her? So rude! "Does it feel good?" He asked teasingly, shaking the mattress side to side.

She puffed her cheeks as she kept on tugging at her hair. "Shut up, idiot! And stop shaking it!" It was making her a little nauseas, weirdly enough. There was a slam at the front door that caught their attention. Was that Happy? "Natsu, it's getting loose! Pay attention to getting my hair out first!"

Natsu huffed, "Yeah, yeah." With a final grunt from Lucy, her hair was pulled out. "There, it's out! Happy?!"

"Very."

"Now lemme check what happened out there." He lazily moved the mattress back as Lucy cried dramatically, thanking that her hair was barely damaged. As Natsu opened his bedroom door, the first thing he saw was a note taped on the front door. What the hell? Taking the piece of paper off the door, he squinted.

I've gone to see my Charle! I can't wait to tell Mira what I heard in the bedroom! You two are very loud and active at night! Glad you're not a virgin, Natsu!

-Happy

Even if you could barley understand the writing, Natsu knew what was written. "DAMMIT HAPPY!" Natsu screamed, earning a small shriek from Lucy in the bedroom. He raced back in panic, seeing Lucy pointing at a small spider on the wall.

"KILL IT, NATSU! YOU'RE HOUSE IS INFESTED WITH HAROLDS!"

"I WILL NOT KILL HAROLD, YOU MURDERER! DON'T THINK I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN WHAT YOU DID TO HAROLD THE FIRST!"

"IT'S MOVING CLOSER TO ME! AT LEAST TAKE IT AWAY!"

"FINE!"

"Natsuuuuuuuuuuuuuu."

"What do you want now?"

"Let's go to the guild." Lucy suggested, holding the shreds of a paper in her hand. "Stupid Happy..." She murmured, blaming the blue exceed for doing what he did. The only words on the badly written note that gave everything away was 'not a virgin', 'Mira', and 'active at night.' She was certainly pissed off.

Natsu sighed, "It's so early..." He grumbled, trailing his hand up his shirt to scratch his stomach. That's the spot, he thought to himself as he grinned. Yawning ever so loudly, Natsu looked at the small clock on the wall.

"Well I just want to get there before Happy does when he tells Mira. I don't want everyone to think I had... that with you." She mumbled, not looking into his eyes as her cheeks flushed.

Natsu pouted, "And what's so bad about having sex with me?"

Lucy shot a glare to Natsu as she felt her whole face heating up. "Don't ask stuff so casually!" She scolded, throwing her pillow at him.

As it successfully hit him, Natsu took his own pillow and threw it at her. "Answer my question and then we could go to the guild. Deal?"

"What's bad is that we're friends! I would want to do that stuff with someone I want to be with," Ouch, a stab in the heart. "Someone who would take care of me," Does she not realize that he takes care of her? Looks like another stab in the heart. "Someone who I could spend the rest of my life with, you know, without ever getting tired of them," Oh, goodie, another stab in the heart. Wouldn't she want to spend her life with him? They are best-friends after all! "Someone I love in a romantic manner." Another stab to the heart annnnnd he's a goner. Dammit, why does he even try with her? Lucy wants a prince, not a fucking dragon.

Suddenly, Lisanna's words from earlier reached him at his moment of doubt.

"... It will be just a matter of time when she realizes your feelings and returns them. It's all about patience."

Patience. He could do that. Just wait for Lucy... And she'll realize his feelings. Patience.

All he needed was patience.

And sleep. He really needed sleep. It seemed like Lucy fell asleep after her little speech. Guess they're not going to the guild anytime soon. Natsu chuckled, closing his eyes. Good thing they were too lazy to get up from his bed or else he wouldn't be able to get there if they were elsewhere.

So he drifted off to deep-slumber, snoring loudly with a small grin on his face, and hope on his mind.

An awkward aura surrounded Lucy and Natsu. They were about to enter the guild. After last night's events, Happy had misheard them, thinking they were doing something other than pulling Lucy's hair out. They both knew Happy would tell Mira. Those two have been all over them lately... And also because of the note Happy left them.

The blonde let out a shaky breath, "I... I don't know if I want to go in anymore..."

Natsu sighed, "We're just gonna have to. Wouldn't it look more suspicious if we don't show up? Anyways, where's the confident Lucy from this morning?"

"Confident Lucy slept on her confidence." She groaned. "I guess you're right..." Lucy murmured. She pushed herself forward, opening the guild's doors. "Good morning, everyone!" She greeted loudly.

"Yo!" Natsu shouted, going straight to the bar to get breakfast. "Mira, get me some breakfast! I'm starving!"

"Got it!" The white-haired bar maid replied, looking extra cheery at that moment. "You want anything, Lucy?"

"Some of your famous pancakes sound good! Ooh! Get me a strawberry milkshake, please!" Mira nodded at the order, skipping around to get the food.

"Ne, ne, Natsu!" Cana called out from the corner of the guild hall. "How did it feel to play with Lucy in bed? Was she good?" The card-mage snickered, ignoring Charle's shout. Something about how there's children in the guild? Eh, who cares.

"We didn't do anything like that." He responded bitterly. Natsu looked around the guild and saw Lisanna staring back at him. "We don't like each other that way!" He quickly defended, cheeks heating up when he saw Lisanna's smirk.

"Yeah! So will everyone leave us alone?" Lucy said, smiling softly at everyone.

The guild went back to being the same. To normal. Well, their type of normal.

Lisanna stood up from her chair in the back of the guild and headed towards Lucy. At least the blonde wasn't in her maid outfit anymore...
The reason she wanted to talk to Lucy was because she wanted to do a mission with her! They were supposed to go, but Natsu said no. Now that Lucy isn't under his control (even though he barely used the power, that idiot) she could finally go with Lucy!

"Lisanna! Hi!" Lucy greeted, sipping a little bit of her milkshake with a grin. "Have you told Natsu...?"

"No. I think it's too early." She lied. Of course she hasn't told Natsu. She couldn't. The pink-haired dragon slayer is in love with Lucy. "But I was wondering if you want do a mission?"

Lucy's eyes glowed. "Of course! It would be so much fun! What type of mission were you thinking?"

Lisanna thought. What would be the best mission to go on? "I'm not sure... How about we go check and see? I saw one where we could help out in a bookstore! I'm surprised Levy didn't take it, but at the same time she was dragged out of here by Gajeel for a different mission."

Lucy nodded, standing up from the barstool and stretching her legs. It felt so good!

That was when Lucy spotted Natsu staring at her. Like, glaring at her. Okay... that is not scary...

"Yo, Lucy! What are you doing?"

"A mission with Lisanna. You don't mind, right?"

"Can I come?" The sudden question surprised both Lisanna and Lucy. Natsu wanted to go with them? Even if it was a boring mission for him? There was only one way to find out!

"Lucy and I are doing a simple mission out of Magnolia. We are going by train to help out a bookstore. Are you sure you want to come?" Lisanna questioned, looking for any hint of annoyance in his eyes.

He looked a bit green at the mention of a train, but he recovered. "I'll go. It'd be nice to do something like this..." Though they both could tell he was lying, he truly wanted to go. Lucy wondered why, but Lisanna frowned, knowing the reason. So Natsu could spend more time with Lucy is what she thought.
The two girls looked at each other hesitantly. Should they let him go? He could destroy things like usual and take things too far. Would it be worth it?

"Lucy, it's up to you." Lisanna stated with a cheeky grin. The blonde grinned at her. Maybe it would be good if Natsu were to come? The three of them together have not been on a mission.

"I guess. Sure! Is Happy coming along?" Natsu shook his head, pointing to the exceed that curled up on Wendy's lap as she spoke with Romeo. Were those two dating yet?

"Great! Where are we meeting at? How long is it going to be?" Lisanna smiled at Natsu who bombarded them with questions. This would be fun, right? Nothing could go wrong on a mission helping out a bookstore!

"Oi, Mira, we'll be taking this job!" Natsu shouted, showing her the flyer of the bookstore that needed help with its opening and whatnot.

Lisanna smiled, nothing would go wrong, and she'll make sure of it.

"How about we pack now and leave 2 hours from now?" Lucy suggested, earning nods from her teammates. "Okay! Let's do this!"

Natsu grinned, "Yosh!" He grabbed Lucy's hand, running as fast as he could out of the guild with a stumbling Lucy behind him, laughing as she scolded him.

Mira, behind the counter, grinned widely as she secretly cheered for those two to become an item. Oh, if only Natsu could confess to Lucy! It would be a dream come true, that's for sure! She sighed dreamily, only to be broken out of her trance by her young sister.

"You okay, Mira-Nee?" She questioned, hinting her concern.

Mira nodded, "Yup! I am alright, Lisanna! It's just some thoughts!"

Lisanna grinned, heading towards the doors of the guild. She should start packing soon enough if she had to be here in two hours.

"Natsu-San really likes her, huh?" The sky dragon slayer spoke to Romeo softly, petting both Charle and Happy as they slept.

Romeo nodded, "Something like that! He's with her all the time, so I guess he loves her."

"Mmhm! Maybe we should go on a mission together with the exceeds? We may have to have some older people with us though, you know how Mira-San is!" Wendy excitedly mentioned, desperately wanting to go on a mission.

"Yeah! But who?" Romeo questioned, looking around the guild. There was Elfman, but Romeo wasn't too familiar with him. It also seemed like he was going on a mission with Evergreen?! Wacky combination. There was Erza who was maybe a little too focused on her cake. Didn't she just come back from an S-class mission with Juvia or something? What about Gray?

"Juvia would like to accompany Wendy-San and Romeo-Kun on their mission if they would want Juvia to come!" The water mage stated, a soft smile on her face.

"Sure!" Shouted both Wendy and Romeo. That would be fun, right? "The mission I was looking at would be taken by train! Someplace out of Magnolia. Something about a suspicious bookstore?"

"Juvia thinks that sounds interesting. We should take that mission! Go grab the flyer, Wendy-San." Juvia looked around for a certain someone until she spotted them. "As Wendy-San does that, Juvia will go get Gray-Sama and convince him to come along!"

Wendy nodded, walking up to the mission request board. She couldn't wait to do a mission and show everyone how strong she is! She had been secretly training with Gajeel. How nice of him!
