You'll Regret This

It was 6 AM when the private jet headed to Enca took off. I didn't expect that this will be the kind of airplane that we will use to go to Enca.

There are five of us here, two are Erza's friends, while the other is an old woman.

I was shocked when Natsu went to the old woman to greet her as soon as we went inside the jet. Her chinky eyes are surrounded by wrinkles

"How are you, Natsu? How's Zeref?" she asked.

"He's okay, Old Nan."

"Won't he attend the wedding?" the woman asked while looking at me.

"He won't. He's busy with the business."

The woman shook her head. "That kid... I know you're both avoiding something. It's great that you came," she said.

Natsu didn't talk. Ever since that encounter with the old women, he didn't talk to me the whole ride. I busied myself with the view from the top. The weather's not cloudy so I can see the islands and seas clearly!

"According to my phone's maps, Ingens is a bit far from the Enca's capital. Are we going to ride a bus or a car?" I asked while staring at my phone's maps application.

"Chopper," Natsu answered.

I slowly nodded. Fine! I thought we're gonna travel by land!

True enough, after the jet landed, we were quickly transferred to a chopper. I was shocked when I saw the familiar faces of Natsu's bodyguards.

This won't be the first time that I'll fly using a chopper. Daddy usually uses it when going around Fiore. Besides, this is a new experience. This time, I'm with Natsu.

The old woman went ahead of us. She was escorted by some of their men. We quickly got to the resort where Jellal and Erza's wedding would happen.

"Who's that Old Nan, Natsu?" I asked.

"She's our old house maid. In my grandparents ancestral house"

I nodded and stopped asking. So the old woman knows his other cousins. That's why she's here in Natsu's cousin.

When we got to the hotel where we'll stay for this event, I saw the familiar faces of the businessmen there. It looks like the whole place is exclusive for the wedding.

"Natsu!" a businesswoman went to us

I know her! I modelled one time for the Scarlet Clothing Line and even designed something for the Irene Belserion Group of Hotels. How could I forget! She the mother of Erza who's getting married tomorrow!

"Auntie..." Natsu greeted.

Madame Belserion smiled at me. Natsu turned to me for an introduction.

"This is Lucy Heartfilia, Luce, this is Aunt Irene Belserion, Erza's mom."

I quickly presented my hand to Madame, "It's nice to see you again, Madame!"

"Heartfilia?" she frowned at Natsu. "We've met before? I'm sorry, I'm old. Memory loss!" Madame laughed.

She's not at all old. I think she's in her mid 40s or 50s.

"Yes. I'm an interior designer. A year ago we've meet for a proposal for the design for your new rooms in your hotel."

She nodded. "You work for the Dreyars?"

I also nodded.

"Oh, yes! I remember now! Come! You'll enjoy in the resort. It's nice! I've been here for two days now," Madame smiled.

"Where's the others?" Natsu asked.

"Jellal's with Erza. I don't know, checking the last minute things with their organizers? And they have a scheduled aerial shoot later. Laxus, Mira, and Vasilys are on the beach."

Natsu nodded and held my hand.

Madame's eyes slowly went to our entertwined hands before quickly looking back up.

"Zeref, Natsu?"

Natsu shrugged, "He's busy..."

"Oh, well... the man's always busy ever since, huh? It's nice that you're able to come 'cause I'm going to be mad at you if you wouldn't! By the way, I'm gonna call the room boy so you two can have your rest in your room. I'm sure you must be tired."

The resort personnel guided us to our room. My eyes remained on the white sand and the clear blue see which can be seen through the large windows of the room. You can even see the corals and reefs because the water's like crystals!

"Are we swimming?" I asked while fixing the curtains to make the room brighter.

The room is wooden. But it still has a modern touch because of the furniture. The huge white bed is very inviting. The headboard is cushioned wood. The windows are huge and covered with white curtains.

"Maybe? Just wear your swimwear under a dress or something to cover you up," Natsu said while sitting on the bed.

I glanced at my phone. I didn't tell anyone about this escapade. But I think I still need to tell them my whereabouts.

"Who are you texting?" Natsu raised an eyebrow.

"Just my mom and dad. I'll tell them that I'm in Enca."

Natsu took a deep breath, "If they ask why are you in Enca?"

I stopped texting and dropped my phone. Not because I'm scared they'll find out about us but because I know they won't care about my plans. They won't ask why I'm here.

"Well... I'll tell them that I'll attend a wedding... but well, they won't ask anyway. I just thought to inform them, in case."

I turned to the sea again. In the seashore, I saw a little boy who's probably two years old running in the sand. Mr. Laxus Dreyar's wearing an all black diver's suit. Maybe he dived earlier. He's with a guy who's also wearing a similar attire. The other woman there is wearing a bikini while Laxus' wife is wearing a maxi dress

"It's Laxus! They're outside with his wife and son!"

"Let's change so we can join them..." Natsu said.

I didn't waste a beat. I quickly changed into my bikini and followed what Natsu suggested. I wore a bohemian white dress.

"Is that a dress or a top?" was his violent reaction when he saw me stepping outside the bathroom.

"What? This is a dress!" I said.

He grabbed the hem of my dress and raised it while I quickly stopped his hand. "What the hell are you doing, Dragneel?" I shouted.

"One blow of the wind will reveal your fucking body! And for fuck's sake, why are you wearing a red bikini, Lucy?" his breathing is fast. His anger is really evident in his face.

"Okay! Okay! Calm down! I don't have other bikinis left! The other one's also red. I bought this because it's nice! The other one has a starfish in the middle of the bandeau."

"I don't care about the starfish! Why are you..." he couldn't continue saying it anymore so he just groaned out of frustration.

I rolled my eyes. "Please, Natsu. Don't be conservative now. I know you like it when women show some skin. Don't tell me you haven't drool over girls because of what they're wearing?"

"So you're telling me that you're wearing that because you want people to drool?" he almost spitted every word.

"For God's sake, that's not my point! My point is why get angry now? It's the beach, I can't wear something with too much cloth in it!"

"Luce, please-"

"Oh gosh! Don't make me change!" I shouted before marching away from the room.

In his face! I am not going to change my outfit. I left him there with his frustrated self. When I got outside, I bumped with some familiar people and exchanged greetings with them. The fact that they're here the day before the wedding means something. Oh well, today's a Saturday so there's no work. It's like a free vacation, right?

The seashore is kinda far from the hotel so I needed to walk. Natsu will find me anyway, he's good at that!

I saw a vacant sun lounger beside Laxus' wife. Laxus and another guy are diving in the sea.

I sat on the sun lounger and looked at the child beside Mira, Laxus' wife. The kid is fair like his mommy. His cheeks are red while his curly ash blonde hair is dancing in his shoulders

"Hi!" Mira greeted when she noticed me.

"Hello! Your baby's so cute! What's his name?"

"Vasilys!" Mira gently guided the kid's hand for a wave.

"Say 'hi' to auntie? You're friends with Jellal?" she turned to me.

"Uhmmm." I shook my head. "I'm Lucy..."

Mira accepted my hand. Her eyes squinted, like she heard my name already and can't remember where. I saw her during exhibit for a bit I never really had a formal conversation with her.

"Then, you're friends with Erza?" she asked again.

I shook my head again. "I'm with Laxus' cousin, Natsu Dragneel..." I said, unsure if I should say that.

"Oh!" she nodded and smirked. "He's here?"

I grinned at her and looked at the kid with red lips. He's so adorable!

"Hi Vasilys!" I greeted.

The kid looked at me and waved the plastic shovel in his hand. I felt like bursting because of his cuteness!

"That's Auntie! Say 'hi!' Aunt Lucy!" Mira said, teaching the young Dreyar.

"Hi!" Vasilys quickly said.

"Very good, baby!" Mira kissed his cheeks.

I bit my lip. How adorable children are! My smile faded when I wondered if I'm also that cute when I was still a child. Or I was probably the worst child, the worst kid. I probably look like a monster, or maybe I don't smile that much? My pictures tell me otherwise. I was a jolly kid. But why don't mommy and daddy like me?

"Hard-headed!" muttering behind us was Natsu.

My train of thought were quickly cut when I heard him. I turned to him and saw his pissed expression. He's wearing a white vneck t shirt and grey shorts. Even when he's wearing something for the beach, he's still so hot!

"This is okay!" I looked at Mira.

"Hi Natsu!" Mira greeted.

"Hi Mira... How's Vasilys?" Natsu sat beside me and immediately put his hand on my thigh.

Damn, this man! Don't tell me his hands will be all over me the whole time we're here?

"Hi!" Vasilys greeted upon hearing his name.

"Hello, big boy!" Natsu said while pinching the blushing cheeks of the kid.

"That's Uncle Natsu!" Mira cheerfully said while guiding Vasilys to wave again.

"By the way, this is Lucy, Mira..."

"Oh! Yup, we've already met here, Natsu," Mira said before looking at Natsu's hand which is on my thigh. Holy crap!

Mira gathered her hair which is dancing to the wind before talking, "You just got here?"

Natsu nodded, "Where's the others?"

Mira shrugged, "We went here with Makarov and my siblings. I think Wendy arrived with Aunt Irene. The others would probably be here tomorrow."

I couldn't understand what they're saying so I entertained myself by watching Vasilys while he's playing with his plastic shovel.

They continued talking about big surnames which I deemed familiar until we heard the laughs coming from a big speedboat.

Laxus and his two companions are now finished diving.

They were still far when the other guy started shouting at Natsu who just shook his head and smirked.

"Hello, Natsu! I see you're finally with someone?"

I bit my lip. I wonder what they're thinking? They think we're together when the truth is we're just fuck buddies.

"Luce, this is Juvia and her walking snowman, Gray," the woman in a blue bikini presented her hand. 'Gray' tried and failed to hit Natsu because Juvia scolded him.

"Nice meeting you," I accepted their hands.

"And I'm sure you know Laxus..." Natsu said to me.

I nodded. Laxus looked at me too. His gaze made me realise how him and Natsu are related. "Lucy Heartfilia..." Laxus greeted.

I smiled at him. He nodded and looked at Natsu, "Which dog are you, Natsu?"

My forehead crumpled because of their conversation.

"Shut up, Laxus!" Natsu laughed.

"I do hope it's a dog with higher IQs. Though I wouldn't be surprised if you wouldn't be able to fetch decently." Gray joined the conversation.

The two of them started to fight. Natsu threw punches straight on Gray's face. Gray quickly ducks and tried to throw punches at Natsu which he dodged. Laxus, who started their taunting, is now silent because of Mira's sharp look at him.

"Boys! Please, that's not a good example for Vasilys..." Juvia pleaded while playing with the kid.

Gray and Natsu stopped and quickly glared at each other.

"The sea's nice. Why don't you try diving?" Laxus said while looking at me.

"Maybe later..." Natsu answered for me.

Laxus whistled and I saw the teasing smile both he and Gray was sporting earlier. My cheeks burned and I don't know why.

"Shall we leave you then? We'll go back here later, we'll just take a break..." Laxus said.

The three of them are smirking. I still don't understand why.

"Like I'll agree to breathe the same air as this flamebrain," Gray said while grabbing Juvia by the waist. The latter squeaked and blushed.

Juvia returned Vasilys to Mira. She carried the kid in her arms before turning to us again.

"Enjoy, you two. See you later!"

"See you..." I said while waving to their retreating figure.

We're the only ones left now at the beach. I took out my beach towel and my sunblock. Natsu sharply glared at me.

"What? I'm going to put some sunblock on. I don't want my skin to get burned."

He surveyed the whole resort. Because it is closed for the wedding tomorrow, the place is exclusive for the guests. There aren't many guests wondering by the seashore right now.

I started to properly place my beach towel in the sand. I liked it better here than the sun lounger. When I sat in it, Natsu quickly followed and took a seat beside me. He even got the time to call a waiter who just passed by to order a shake for the both of us.

When the waiter went to make his order, I called Natsu's attention.

"Can you please put some sun screen on my back?" I said, smiling while quickly taking of my clothes.

I heard how Natsu violently inhaled a large breath. He grabbed the sunblock and put enough in his palm before spreading it in my back in circles.

I closed my eyes while feeling the heat from his hands on my shoulders. It sent shivers down my spine and I couldn't hide it. I moaned a little when I felt his hands on my back.

"Lucy, for goodness sake!" he whispered, "Put your dress on!"

"What about my other shoulder, Natsu?" I said while looking at him. I'm already heady. I can't believe it!

Natsu almost cursed while putting the sunblock on my other shoulder. I groaned again. I heard his curse before stopping.

I grinned before taking the bottle of sunblock in his hand.

"Come here, I'll put some on you."

His eyes squinted ay me but he took his shirt off nonetheless. Good boy!

I put enough sunblock on my palm before lightly spreading it in his broad back. I also held his arms and put some on it too. He just stared at me while I'm doing it in his arms.

"Let me put some on my legs... Give me the bottle," Natsu said.

I gave the bottle to him but I didn't stop with his back. I even put some on his chest. He turned to me, his jaw clenched.

"Are you seducing me in broad daylight, Lucy?" he asked.

My eyes went down to his board shorts and I saw a tent there. Millions of volts of electricity traveled in me because of what I saw.

"Come here!" he ordered.

I slightly moved away from him while laughing but he managed to grab my wrist. He pulled me in the middle of his legs. His arousal brushed my back. I laughed as he put his hands all over my body.

"This is your fault! Thanks for being so naughty... Now you stay here until it's asleep!"

I laughed and tried to free myself. He put his face in my neck and started kissing it.

"How is that gonna sleep when you keep on kissing me?" I chuckled.

"Stay still. You'll really regret this, Luce..." there's warning in his voice.

I just laughed and held his hands which is caging me. His arousal is now very proud. I can feel it in my back.
