the coming chapters are all long, please tell me if they are boring
"have you heardㅡ"
"shit guys! there's a very hot man outside the PR office!"
"what!?"
Natsu glanced up from the file he was busy reviewing and saw the shadows getting up from their seats to make their way out of his vision
And now, it's Natsu alone inside his office. everyone was out to make their break times productive eating, and some just wanting to breathe fresh air.
meanwhile, Natsu decided to just stay inside the room to be alone, he didn't want to go anywhere, he didn't want to overthink again, well, he would be spending his break time alone in the office, being a model he is and reviewing for upcoming events
"i still have to pass this to Kishio." Natsu groaned, remembering
closing his file, Natsu stretched his arms and let out a groan in satisfaction, he then took the files under his desk and went out of the room only to see people running to one direction, the female employees were checking on their faces, putting make up on, meanwhile the males were were laughing and acting all cool as they passed by the hallways.
"no runningㅡ"
"aw, since when did you start scolding like an old man?" one startled Natsu as he threw his arm on his shoulders.
"but you could get hurt running down." even Natsu was shocked at himself. he usually isn't like this.
"hey, I heard there's a visitor." the male gave Natsu a wide smile "want to go check it out?"
is this fuss all about that visitor? it must be someone important, is the visitor a celebrity perhaps?
Natsu shrugged of his arm and showed him the papers he was holding. "still need to give this to the team leader."
"I heard that it's miss heartfilia's husband." the male said, wiggling his brows at Natsu.
not because he knows something about their relationship, he just wanted to see Natsu's reaction for the couple.
oh, now he knows who's the visitor
"okay then." Natsu continued to walk away, waving a goodbye at the blond. "take care of your way down the stairs." he said, sounding uninterested.
but he did care.
his heart cared so much when he didn't want to care, his mind was thinking of something else, recalling the event folders, he had learned so far for the day, but his heart was there, hurting at the information he received a while ago.
Taking another staircase down as the other one was full, Natsu passed a group of people and then passed by a familiar pair that caught his attention.
"Yuki, don't be sad." Sting said as he rubbed circles behind Yukino's back.
She then pouted. "I'm disappointed."
Natsu raised a brow at the conversation he heard. he didn't know where he got this attitude from, he isn't the type to eavesdrop on conversations.
"i was expecting for the princess to be there." Yukino said, startling Natsu when ahe stomped her feet.
walking away, Natsu couldn't help but have that smile on his face. he could picture the little girl running around the large office and he can't help but find it so cute.
But then, he remembered the last time they came and the mistake he made. he didn't mean to scare Sol, he was just scared for Sol to call him and get himself exposed. he was guilty and he hated himself for doing it.
poor girl, she must be so scared.
"no." Natsu then shook his head. "you don't have to be guilty, you did it for your own good." he convincing himself
but it was his own daughter. Sol was scared andㅡ
"Natsu, you don't want them to find out, do you?" he was now mumbling to himself. but there's nothing to be embarrassed of, everyone was circling the office because of this specific visitor. "you almost got caught last night, snap out of it."
he shouldn't feel anything towards them. giving them support is already enough. it should be enough.
"plus," he stopped in front of the frame that had a sign PR and stood there for a while. "he's going to find someone to fall in love with, why should i now start caring for them?"
Natsu keeps on scolding himself for always having thoughts about his daughter and even Lucy.
he would now think of how sol is, if she is alright and is eating well, and if she is having fun at home. it has just been half of
the day and that's how much he keeps on thinking about her.
as for Lucy, he would often glance at her if she spots him. they had meeting with her a while ago and Natsu kept on staring at her, admiring everything she does. it felt so weird, he had never felt anything like this with someone.
his mind keeps on reminding himself not to care but he can't help it, he is starting to care for them.
staring at the lunch box on her table, Lucy couldn't hold back a smile forming on her lips "these guys.."
there's even a picture of the Sol being glued to the lunch box and Lucy appreciated how they were trying hard, ahe was just thankful that.
Loke didn't bring Sol and left them at home with Romeo looking out for them for a while, instead, Loke took a video of her and sending a message to Lucy.
but what Lucy couldn't forget what the mess a while ago. a lot were gathering around the floor just because Loke came to pay a visit to Lucy.
the employees were acting as if Loke was one celebrity, when actually he's just a babysitter, but that's not what they see in their eyes.
they were now addressing Loke as Lucy's husband and not like both of them had any problems of it.
for Loke, it's better than having rumors about Natsu being a father of her fluffball and having something going on with their strict director.
Lucy didn't want that to happen, she didn't want Natsu to get in trouble.
"god, i'm still caring!" Lucy hit her head, leaning her back to her swivel chair with a frown on her face. "you're now moving on from him, care less starting right now."
after their conversation that night, Lucy finally decided to move on from Natsu. He is still going to be the kids' father but that's all he's going to be.
Lucy realized that loving Natsu would only hurt her. She needs someone else.
Lucy deserves someone who will love her back and will basicallyjust treat her properly.
"even he is fine about me finding someone else." Lucy said, recalling Natsu who's not bothered at Lucy finding someone else to love. "if he's fine then why am i having a hard time? i should also start looking for people!"
but she honestly doesn't know where to start. She's too busy to participate in
blind dates, to start meeting up with people, and even to fall in love.
but yet, she had time to fall for Natsu and waiting for him despite of the boy having
no signs of loving him back
"why does he have to make everything so hard?" Lucy stood up from her seat and grab a file that she needed to stack up to the shelf inside the office. "well, i'm going to show him that i'm going to live a perfect life without him!"
Lucy nodded in agreement at what she just said and then promised herself to do that. to find someone and show to Natsu that she can live life without him.
She's going to do that, yeahㅡshe's not going to be able to do that. because first thing's first, Natsu keeps on appearing inside her head. She can't move on.
"that fucking, shitty, gorgeous human being." Lucy mumbled under her breath as she reached out to place the file up at the highest part of the shelf, just as she was about to say another word about Natsu, she saw a hand also reaching out for a file, making Lucy panic and quickly turn around to find out whom that arm belonged to.
but it was a wrong move.
the director then froze from her place when she noticed someone familiar being so close to her.
Just when she was cursing the life of this person, he decided to appear. "N-Natsu?"
"Miss heartfilia" Natsu scanned the files at the self and then looked down at Lucy who's eyes were looking straight at him, "do you perhaps know where mister kishio placed his records?" Lucy knows, but she isn't moving nor speaking.
Natsu was aware that Lucy was frozen there but he didn't try anything to snap her to reality.
Lucy started to get uncomfortable under Natsu's gaze meanwhile Natsu was getting comfortable at the position they were in.
fortunately for them, they were alone inside the office. there's always a specific time of the day where Lucy is left alone in the office
being caught in the moment, Natsu placed a hand on the shelf and the other on Lucy's left side. he was now trapping the poor director, but she didn't feel uncomfortable now unlike before.
It's probably because Natsu is now looking at her with pure admiration, and it shocked her seeing that.
but they were still in office, they shouldn't be in a risky position.
"Naㅡ"
"where's my kiss?" Natsu didn't know why he just brought this up now.
Seeing Lucy's lips a little bit parted like that made him remember himself wanting Lucy's morning kiss but didn't had the guts to ask. but now he had the confidence to do so.
"your what?" Lucy placed both of her hand on Natsu's chest, ready to push him away. "just to let you know, we're working."
so what if they are at the company? surprise, Natsu didn't care.
"so Loke gets a kiss but i don't?" the director scoffed. "a babysitter gets a kiss from you meanwhile the father of the kids can't have your kiss."
Lucy didn't know what was happening to Natsu but honestly speaking. She was silently liking it.
"i want my kiss." Natsu leaned down even closer, totally forgetting that he's talking an employee working for him right now.
"Luc-"
a kiss he wants? a kiss he gets. Lucy grabbed the older's collar and then pulled him down for their heights to match, smashing their lips together. Natsu unknowingly smiled in between the kiss and now wrapped his arms around Lucy's waist, deepening their sweet kiss.
Office? never heard of that.
pulling away to breathe, it didn't take them long to kiss back again. only them, they were imagining that there is no one else but them in this world.
they even lost track of time. what they are focused are their lips dancing in sync, tasting each other for so long.
too immersed in their longing kiss to even realize the door opening.
they were snapped back to reality when they heard a gasp. Lucy pushed Natsu a little bit harshly, causing the superior to hiss and turn to where someone gasped.
And the two widened their eyes seeing someone familiar looking all so shocked.
"Sting!?"
the blond blinked twice to check if this was real he couldn't believe what he had just saw. Lucy and Natsu were eating each other's faces, something he had never knew he would encounter.
"Miss Heartfilia? Sir?"
How's your Sunday???
