Chapter 37
Manly Men
"I was sure my plan would work." Freed seemed quite put out that clothes didn't seem to be the way to Lucy's heart.
"Of course not." Elfman jumped to his feet, fist in the air. "Men don't judge people by their clothes."
"Lucy isn't a man." Natsu replied with a sweat-drop. That was part of the problem.
"Women love men who are manly." Elfman continued, slinging an arm over Natsu's shoulder. "Show her that you're a man and she will fall for you in no time."
"Is that what worked for Evergreen?" Bickslow heckled causing Elfman to flush bright red.
