„Ok, this needs to be the last one!" Lucy screamed over the loud music, before chucking down the Tequila shot and biting into her lemon.
"You forgot the salt!" Cana shouted back and ordered two more shots. "We have to do it again." All the while some deep-based music rang through the club Cana chose for them tonight. When the two shots were put in front of them, they drank them in the right order, salt, Tequila, Lemon, even though Lucy wasn't really sure someone could force an order onto her on how to drink alcohol correctly. As long as you didn't drink too much, but they overstepped this point a few rounds ago. Cana was proud of her friend in the moment, Lucy would become a free spirit, she felt it in that moment and her feelings never betrayed her. If she remembered the next morning, she´ll read the blondes cards, maybe they explained Lucy´s behaviour, not that she minded.
"Let´s go dancing girl!" Pulling on the blonde´s arm Cana guided her through the crowd, right to the centre of the dancefloor. First, they danced with each other, ignoring all the attention their risky outfits got them. They wore similar dresses, tight, glittery and short, only Cana´s was back free and Lucy´s showed more cleavage. After a few songs though, they let some lucky men dance with them. If Lucy was honest with herself, she liked dancing with Cana better, of course she wanted to get some experience, yet it still scared her to be touched by a stranger.
The alcohol helped Lucy a lot to let loose and after some habituation time she enjoyed the way her body felt pressed to this stranger. He was no mage, he had no magical signature radiating from him, but still appeared fit and his face was cute, he kind of reminded her of Eve, before the seven-year time skip. She blinked, now she couldn't unsee it. He looked way too much like Eve and she didn't want to make out with Eve, ever! When they started their dirty dancing, she was sure he could be the one to get her first kiss. He would have been perfect; a stranger, good looking, minty breath and drunk. There was no chance they would ever meet again, but now, now he resembled a child. She pardoned herself, let Cana know that she went to the toilet quickly and then ran away from the Eve doppelgänger.
Before she could reach the toilets though, she crushed into someone and almost fell on her butt if not for another person behind her, she ungracefully stumbled into. She heard a glass drop and felt an evil glare directed at her, the alcohol in her system, however, let her ignore it. The guy she ran into grabbed her by her wrists to prevent her from stumbling in anyone else.
"Lucy-sama?" There weren't many people calling her that, mostly Wendy and Romeo nowadays. By Mavis, if that´s Eve she´s gonna scream. She eyed the man in front of her.
"Sting?" That was wild, her drunken mind couldn't comprehend what was going on but in a strange way it was perfect.
"What are you doing here?" She asked him, now standing on her own, so he dropped his hands from her wrists, still eyeing her to make sure she didn't stumble.
"Minerva, Rogue and I were close by for a job, and the Lady wanted to test Magnolia´s nightlife." He grinned at her cheekily while scratching his neck. In that moment he reminded her so much of Natsu, yet in a different way, she couldn't put her finger on it. Lucy never would have guessed that Minerva of all people liked clubbing, of course she was different than during the games, changed a lot, yet she appeared so serious all the time. Erza appeared serious as well, yet loved nightclubs and dressing up, so Lucy guessed she simply mistook Minerva. Hell, she was so tipsy.
"What about you Lucy-sama?" The man in front of her also changed so much in the last year, he became guild master at such a young age, even though he was over 300 years literary, still, he was also extremely polite and he felt so familiar. Why did he feel so familiar? She touched him, first his underarms, then his upper arms and finally his face. He smirked at her, clearly amused.
"Do you wanna make out?" The question left her drunk system before she even thought about it but when she saw that sexy smile on his face, she knew she made the right decision.
Sting pulled her away from the crowded area in front of the toilets into a darker corner. His body pressed against hers, with such a heated force Lucy thought she would hit her head on the wall behind her, but he took care that it won´t happen. He was obviously more experienced than her, which was good she thought.
Sting gently grabbed her chin between his fingers, smiling down at her when she wetted her lips with her tongue. He didn't say a word and then dipped his head down, so that their lips touched just briefly in a small, sweet kiss. Lucy thought her heart might explode, she was extremely nervous and yet wanted more. The soft touch was simply not enough.
She pressed herself against him, her lips now pressing against his in a rougher motion as he slipped his hand from her chin to her hips. Her own hands wandered over his body, he wore more clothes than normally, or just longer clothes? She didn't know, she didn't care. All she wanted to do was touching and kissing, and that they did. He tried to pull her up, wanted her to wrap her legs around his midsection but Lucy didn't want to do that and as soon as he realized he stopped his attempts.
They still made out, and it felt great. It was a little sloppy here and there and when their teeth collided Sting simply smiled against her lips, slowed the kiss down again, showed her what to do with her tongue and hands, as if he knew how inexperienced she was. Maybe he could tell, at least he didn't comment.
After a few minutes he broke the kiss to caress the corner of her mouth, her chin, her cheeks and finally her neck with his lips. Lucy never believed she could feel so much pleasure from kisses alone, yet here she was. She gasped when he bit down harshly but licked over the swollen flesh immediately as if he tried to apologize. It felt so good, a moan escaped her lips. She pressed his head closer to her neck, to feel more of him, he needed to be closer, kiss her more, bit her again. It felt too good. The way his hands slid up and down her body, squeezed her butt and briefly touched the underside of her breasts. It was not roughly; just light touches and she was glad he didn't go too far.
He bit her again. She moaned louder.
"Sting?" Rogue´s cold voice was loud and clear over the loud music and the blond Dragon Slayer let his head drop on Lucy´s shoulder.
"Go away!" He murmured in the knowledge that Rogue undeniably heard him.
"The Madam wants to leave, she sent me to get you." Rogue knew what Sting was doing, he saw the two leave for the dark corner. It was not his intention to interrupted him, Minerva really wanted to leave, he just happened to enjoy the small things in life and one of those small things was being a cock block for Sting. Also, he always thought Lucy and Natsu had a thing and he really didn't want Sting to fight the other Dragon Slayer again, it was tiresome.
The last time they fought Sting locked himself up in his office to mourn and Rogue was forced to deal with the guild´s business on his own. So, parting the two blondes was for the better, if Natsu ever find out, and he eventually will, then he may be pleased to hear that it was a quick kiss. Well, if you want to call several minutes quick.
"Well, that was a brief encounter. I hope you´ll come visit soon Lucy-sama and bring Natsu-kun with you." Sting said and after a last bittersweet kiss on her lips he went to his waiting partner. Rogue, who saw the interaction slapped Sting´s head while leaving and Lucy had to chuckle about their antics.
They were so much like Gray and Natsu, it was ridiculous but also the reason Lucy felt so comfortable with Sting. He reminded her of Natsu, but not in the same way as the stranger reminded her of Eve. She knew she acted ambivalent, there was simply a huge difference between kissing someone who looks like a child, Lucy was not into that, or kissing someone who acts like your best friend, who you love dearly but on a platonic level. She felt good about kissing Sting, mostly because the kiss felt good.
Now she was giddy, she experienced her first kiss, and it was absolutely awesome.
I know this chapter is rather short, and also appears to be out of context, but I simply didn´t want to change it. I like it, it´s just off... Well, the next chapter will be longer and also more contentual
