It's now evening in the streets of Magnolia where the street lamps have automatically lit up like they usually do along with the houses and apartments but with an exception of light switches that people use to turn on and off the lights. Inside the wizard guild hall, most members are preparing to go home while few others decided to stay and clean up.
"WOO! I can't wait to drink some more alcohol!" Cana said.
"Didn't you had 30 bottles of them?" Levy sweatdropped.
"Haven't you heard of the word appetizers."
"Don't you mean main course?"
"Yeah, yeah. Same thing girl."
"I'd rather read books than drink that much."
"Books make you a real man!" Elfman raised his fist above his head.
"You know they're women right?" Gajeel frowned.
"Still a real man's job to do."
"*Facepalm softly and sighs at the same time*."
"HOLD IT MY CHILDREN!" the guild master ordered while standing on the stage as the entire members stopped and then walked near it. "Before you all go I just had a pretty good idea for each and every one of you."
"What's that?" Romeo asked.
"Well child, I was thinking who would be more suitable for 'this job'."
"A job? What kind?"
"Hmmm... That's a very good question. Who is more fit to stay in here so that they can look after our 'Injured Visitor' until he's up and about?"
"Ooh me! I'm gonna make sure that he stay hydrated until he is all better! And especially for you too my darling Gray." Juvia said.
"Don't push it." the ice mage said, sternly.
"What makes you think that? I'll do it so I can snuggle close to him so that he can be kept warm." Cana said.
"Oh no. You reek of alcohol so much that you drove so many men out." Evergreen then earned a glare from her guildmate. "I'm more ladylike so he should be with me."
"I think I'm more appropriate for him." Levy place her hands on her hips.
"Nope. The perfection one should be in charge and that is me." Laki said.
"Since you put it that way. I know everything about Tender. Loving. Care." Kinana said.
"He sure will love my cooking as I will be the one that's babysitting him." Lisanna said.
"Oh no. I should be looking after him as that's what makes me a real man." Elfman said.
"Hold on their buster. Whoever is gonna take care of the passed out dude is me." Gajeel pointed at himself with his thumb.
"As a former guild master. I will teach him the way of the mage." Macao started doing a kung fu type of pose.
"Beat it baldy. I'm much more superior to you!" Wakaba said.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?! I was the guild master until the missing members came back!"
"WHO THE HELL CARES!"
After this, the two started to get into a fight as well as most of the guild members in order to see who'd be perfectly fit to take care of 'The Injured Visitor' who is in the infirmary room, still deeply unconscious. Just as things were about to become a big mess, a sound of the airhorn blared thoughout the whole guild in which cause the entire members to cover their ears in pain. The person who had blown it happens to be Natsu Dragneel.
"WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO, MAKE US DEAF?!" Gajeel yelled furiously.
"For your information, gramps here was talking to all of us but you just had to cut off by fighting." Natsu said
"You do the same thing like us."
"Only if I get interrupted. Now let's listen up!"
"Thank you Natsu, that's really thoughtful of you." Makarov said as the fire dragon slayer stuck his tongue at the entire guild members. "Now where was I. Let's see who is perfectly fit for this job... Now let's see... A certain person who is completely far more under control and...
"Ooh. I'm the most under controlled one!" Max said putting his right hand up.
"He means the one who can teach the youngster on how to dance." Vijeeter said while coming up with new dances.
"Pick me!" Nab said.
"Oh no. Me." Warren said.
"I think I should be the one who would take that offer." Freed said. "Just like I did for Laxus when he was bed bound like that youngster."
"Well I think I'm more suited for this job." Bickslow said.
"Okay that's it!" Makarov said. "I've already chosen the person that is fit for the job."
As most members begin to cross their fingers.
"And that person is..."
Then they started getting a bit closer until he pointed at one of this children.
"LUCY!"
"WHAT?!" Everyone said in shock.
"Wait, why me?" the stellar mage asked in confusion while pointing at herself.
"I think you're more suited for this." the guild master said.
"What about Laxus? Mirajane? Bisca & Alzack? Erza? Wendy & Carla? Gray? Or Natsu & Happy?"
"What did I say before?"
"*Sighs* Nevermind."
"Good."
"But master. I want to take care of him." Cana said.
"Do you remember the last time you took care of the previous dude." Laxus reminded her.
Flashback...
It's morning in Magnolia and somewhere in the town, we see a place called Fairy Hills where is always been calm and peaceful until...
"*THE LOUD SOUND OF THE DOORS BURST OPEN* WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" the dark skinned muscular man with sliky fringed green hair with a guild mark that is a shape of a fox face to go with on the left side of his arm wearing nothing but a white towel on yelled in a freaked out way. "You were supposed to give me a safe haven until your drunk ass had to ruined my privacy!"
Then a person who happens to be none other than Cana came outside with only a white towel on, holding a green glass of wine and a back scrubber to go with,
"Hey come *hic* on now *hic* I wanted to give you a *hic* nice scrub on your *hic* back." the card mage said.
"DO I LOOK LIKE I GIVE A FLYING ASS ABOUT IT?! And plus, didn't I tell you I already have a fiancee."
"*Winks at him, seductively* She doesn't have to find out about it."
"You are one crazy and sociopathic alcoholic lady!"
"Aww don't be that way, why don't you comeback so that once we're done, we have some private time together and then get wild up with each other."
The green haired mage widened as he ran as fast as he can while Cana just watched with a smirk on her face.
"Hopefully he'll comeback once he changed his mind."
End Of Flashback...
"Oh. I just wanted to wash his back, that's all." Cana said
"That doesn't mean you had to get drunk and strip all of your clothes off. But thankfully, he only had a minor injury unlike this dude." Laxus said.
"Hush man. I was doing my job."
"Really? If you was doing your job, you wouldn't have scared him off like that."
"Sure, sure, sure."
"Hey gramps, why don't Happy & I stay here with Lucy so that she doesn't have to be all alone?" Natsu asked.
"Let's just say I'll put it that way." Makarov playfully pulls his left side moustache.
"NO FAIR!" Most members yelled.
"*Dark aura appears around his body* DIDN'T YOU HEAR WHAT I SAID?!"
"*Most members quivered in fear* Yes master."
"Mommy *Points at Makarov* The guild master can be scary and bossy at the same time." Asuka said.
"That's because these people don't listen to him for what he saying." Bisca explained.
"You don't want to upset master right, so it's better to listen to what he has to say that is really important to listen." Alzack said.
"Okay daddy I will." the little Connell said.
"Okay now that is over, time to go!" Makarov said.
With that, the entire members left the guild with an exception of Lucy, Natsu & Happy as they're chose to take care of the young man who had suffered severe injuries along with a high fever to go with. They even choose to do the cleaning where the few members left off due to the trio staying behind. Just as they're done, they lock up the guild, went in the infirmary room to get ready for bed. Natsu & Happy chose the bed next to the door while Lucy have bed next to the window. Both of their beds were next to the unconscious raven haired teen. The fire dragon slayer then started scanning at the youngster from his upper body by slowly pulling off the covers.
"Hey Lucy, don't you get worried?" Natsu asked.
"Worried about what?" Lucy asked back. "H-hey what are you doing?"
"Hmm... I'm just taking a good look at his entire body."
"Well you shouldn't be doing that."
"Why not ?"
"Because you're invading his personal space."
"He's still unconscious though, so what would happen?"
"Do you remember when you tried to 'unstone' Erza?"
"I was trying to turn her back, I didn't mean to give her a crack but she did gave me a well hell of a punch."
"Anyways. Let's get changed alright?"
With that said, Natsu leaved the young man alone and placed the covers back up to his chest. Natsu told Happy to keep a eye on him in order to make sure he doesn't do something suspicious while he and Lucy closed the curtains so that they changed into their night clothes in order to avoid looking at each other. Lucy was wearing a white and pink t-shirt on and a pair of pink pants white Natsu only wears a pair of orange pajama pants as he's not really that bothered about being shirtless. Once they're done, the two opened the curtains and then laid on their beds while Happy made a hammock by using a infirmary gown next to Natsu . As Lucy and Happy fall into a long deep slumber. The pink haired dragon slayer curiously glanced at the teenager.
"Hmmm... I wonder... No, I think I should leave him alone for now." Natsu thought as he slowly closed his eyes and drifted into a long deep slumber.
