Dinner was served at exactly six in the evening. Lucy was wearing something casual thinking there'd be no point in trying to catch Natsu's attention since he didn't really care. She felt really disappointed a a bit mad that Natsu still hasn't come back to normal with her. With the other girls he plays and makes fun of them but with her he's always serious or sometimes he ignores her presence. It was rude and sometimes she wondered if her little crush on him must've been momentary or a spur in the moment. She sighed while thinking these thoughts.
During dessert Sting chatted with Lucy and the other women as well. Most of the girls found him charming and quite a gentleman. Most of the men were annoyed and wanted to shoot him dead instantly.
After the whole evening Sting asked Lucy to come with him to the balcony. Natsu noticed this and moved closer to the window curtains to catch a glimpse of their conversation.
"what am I doing?!" Natsu thought. "Dammit you idiot! Now you start to get interested! What is wrong with you." Natsu felt like a complete idiot, "Women just love to flirt don't they.."He sighed at his stupidity and decided to sweep everything off his shoulder when suddenly he heard Lucy's voice.
"Tomorrow? Is that even allowed?" Lucy said.
"Yes Don Makarov has granted me permission to take you out on a date!" Sting said cheerfully.
"But I-"
"Come on now Lucy! This way it be much easier to talk to you!" Sting sounded play fully which annoyed Natsu more.
"Whaaaat?! A date?! This is ridiculous! Don't fall for it Luce!" He said to himself.
Natsu's jaw dropped completely as he saw Lucy smiling at approval to the date. Natsu has never felt angrier than before. He walked quickly to the Don's room, even knocking off Mavis who was about to speak with him.
Natsu slammed the door open and intruded instantly. "Oy old man! What's this date with Sting and Lucy?"
" Natsu! I've been expecting you!" The don grinned slyly.
"Yeah yeah, now tell me. Isn't it forbidden for our women to be allowed outside alone with outsiders."
"Yes. I'd only allow it if there was a chaperone... But I'll let this one slide." The Don said calmly.
"wh-what?! Why?" Natsu started to speak loud like before. Confused because sting is much dangerous than a regular outsider!
"Ah! There's the Natsu I've been looking for!" He smiled.
Natsu stepped backward and blushed.
The Don enjoyed this view of him and decided to keep playing. "I'm sorry Natsu! I think you should leave those two love birds alone for now. Now I have work to do, dismissed." The Don sat heavily on his chair, Bouncing a few bumps before completely sitting. Natsu felt irritated but left with no word.
While walking he said to himself "love birds my ass! Who cares about the rules! I'm gonna fucking spy their date!" Natsu smiled evily! "I fuckin won't back out anymore!" He laughed at his idea.
The Don started laughing "Oh God! It's so easily to manipulate those kids!"
Mavis sighed seeing Makarov laughing like an idiot on his chair "You planned this out didn't you?"
The Don chuckled "That boy was out of sorts recently I had to know why, now I know I'm trying to fix this shit together."
The next morning Lucy went down the stairs in her white shorts, blue tank top and purple blazer. She wore sneakers to prepare herself from any heavy activity. She walked down the stairs and saw Sting waiting for her in her casual clothes. He was wearing a slim shirt and some fitted jeans with a checkered polo hanging around his waist. Despite being a man Lucy noticed how sting manages to still accessorize himself, with the single earring and silver bands around his wrists. She smiled at his excitement for this day.
Little did they know a pink haired boy wearing all black Jeans and shirt were following them and was starting the car as well from behind the lawn.
Natsu chuckled in amusement wth his said to himself and reeved the engines wildly.
