Erza's POV
"Welcome to Scarlet Bakery, what can I help you?" Serving customers with my newly designed maid uniform really makes my mood heightened. While I am cutting a slice of cheese cake to a female customer, the bell at my entrance rings, signalling a customer coming in. Then before I can greet the newly arrived customer, he slams a few notes on my counter and whisper-shouts, "Give me 2 whole strawberry cakes!"
"Ah, Jellal, nice to see you here again. I must admit this is the first time I see you buying strawberry cakes instead of your usual donuts."
"Erm, well, I thought I want to have something different today."
"Thank you and please come again." I hold out a box of the cheese cake I cut earlier to the female customer earlier and she exits. Without wasting anymore minute, I start to take out 2 strawberry cakes from the display and packs into 2 large boxes. In my bakery, strawberry cake is my specialty and most of the time, I will bake extra 2 just to eat during my break time and after hours. There was once a huge blizzard hit the town, making everyone stayed at home and no customers at my bakery. I was able to finish 10 strawberry cakes without problems. Still it was a strange day though, I remembered a blue haired person peeked through the window even though it was practically snowing hard.
"So, Erza, erm, why are you wearing that maid outfit?" I can see Jellal's face blushing very hard. Is it my imagination? Even smoke starts to emit from his ears.
"Oh, this? This is my new uniform that I designed earlier."
"Erm, don't you think it shows too much of your cleavage? No-no, I don't mean to peek!" His face is now as red as a ripe tomato. I just chuckle and hands over his boxed cake to him.
"Thank you and please come again." He looks at the 2 boxes and takes one. After that he shyly says, "The other one is for you."
Before I can respond, he runs out as fast as he could, even leaving a dusty trail behind him. I look at the other strawberry cake that he left and smiles shyly. He always make me laugh in the inside with his usual embarrassed antics.
"Thanks for the cake, Jellal."
The bell rings. Before I can say anything, a shirtless Gray interrupts me with a loud yawn, "Erza, give me a large coffee and a raisin bun."
"Gray, your clothes."
"Shit, where did I left them?" He looks around frantically and suddenly Juvia hands him his clothes, "Gray-sama, your clothes here."
Sama? Why did she call him sama? What kind of relationship they have? Is Gray the type to dominate innocent girls like Juvia to call him master while he *ahem* giving some kind of kinky punishments to her? Oh my, I think I'm going to faint!
"Thanks. Hmmm? Do I know you? And why did you address me as sama?" So Gray doesn't know Juvia at all? Is he going to fool me?
"Erm, Gray-sama doesn't know Juvia, but Juvia knows about you."
What? Even Juvia admits it? Wait, did Gray orders her to do that in public? And when they are alone, he will do *ahem* stuffs to her? This is getting out of hand!
"I'm not a celebrity or so, then why do you know about me?"
"Gray Fullbuster, 24 years old. Works in Ur Ice with Ur and Lyon. Always comes to Scarlet Bakery in the morning for a coffee and raisin bun. Then starts his working shift while sculpting and delivering to places. After that go to Fairy Tail pub to hang out while picking fights with a pink haired guy named Flame Brain by Gray-sama himself."
"W-what?! Did you stalk me or something?"
"Gray-sama! Juvia wants to be your girlfriend! Juvia will catch all your clothes that you strips off!"
"Erza, help me!"
I cannot take it anymore. Now even though Juvia confesses how much she wants to be his girlfriend after all they *ahem*, this Gray just ignores her and asks me for help? Did he not know about responsibilities?
"Gray, you are going to be so dead today..."
"Erza, spare me!"
Doranbolt's POV
If you think being a lawyer is fun, you are going to be wrong.
Even after hours, I have to study cases non stop without having time to relax or rest properly. But today's different.
I passed over most cases to my subordinates and runs out from the firm before they catch me. Today I'm going to do something I should have done much earlier.
I'm going to make sure I get a potential life partner.
In order to make my plan to approach my target, I went to get a Siamese cat as my very first pet. Then in order to get the necessary vaccine for it, I'll have to get it to a vet, right?
Once I reach the small pet clinic which has the sign Dragon's Vet, I barge in without realizing I hit a person on his face when I opened the door. Then putting down the cat I was carrying about, I open my mouth and ask, "So, how much for all the necessary vaccines for a new pet?"
"Huh, Mr Lawyer you are here again? Oh, what a cute Siamese cat you have!"
"Heh, meet my new pet, erm called Mest."
"Hey Doranbolt! Why did you have to open the door so hard to hit me right in the face! I'm going to be late to get back to my house and check out my new hot neighbor!"
"Natsu? Oh so you always bring Happy here?"
"Of course, you were too busy to listen to me and you always just nod every time even though we all practically hangs out at Fairy Tail!"
"Well sorry."
"Natsu-san, you know Mr Lawyer here?"
"It's Doranbolt, not Mr lawyer."
"Wendy! This is the crazy guy I told you before! Where he is always curious and wants to know about everything happening around him when he is in a strange case!"
Okay, this is not a good start. I always know Natsu's not the kind of guy to introduce people with their good points instead. I just hope Wendy here didn't freak out.
"Ohh, so he is the one you mentioned earlier that chews rocks just because he wanted to know why the rocks is used to hit that idol, Michael James?" AN: I don't know whether this person really exists or not, I just make up the name.
Well, remind me to find something to blackmail Natsu with when I'm free.
"Exactly! Well I talked too much, I'm going to go now before that Lucy chick is not at home!"
After Natsu left, I am brought back to reality by Wendy's throat clearing, "Well, Mr Law- I mean, Doranbolt-san, I'm going to give your cat Mest all the necessary vaccines and checkups. You can wait here while you are waiting."
"Thanks a lot. Anyway, how long do I need to wait?"
"Erm, about an hour if there's no one else coming in. You can have a walk around the neighborhood if you want."
"Sure, then just give my cell a call when Mest is ready to be picked up."
Before I can move, a white furred cat comes to my leg and starts to scratch my jeans. Wendy shouts and picks up the white cat while it hisses at me.
"I'm so sorry, Doranbolt-san! Carla, my cat here is always friendly with customers, so please don't sue me for anything please!"
"Hahaha, don't worry."
"Wendy! Lily is sick again!"
A gruff looking guy which is a lot taller than me comes in the clinic with a black cat in his arms. Is he sane to have so many piercings on his face? And does he ever heard of a barber shop? His hair is so long that people will usually assume he never cuts his hair!
Wendy puts her hands on her tiny hips and scowled a bit at this guy, "Gajeel-san! I told you not to let Lily eats iron! Who lets their cats to eat screws and stuff?"
"Tch, just fix him before he pukes on me."
"I'm sorry Doranbolt-san, looks like you have to wait longer than an hour."
"It's okay, just call me when Mest is ready."
Well, since I have nothing better to do after I throw all my work to my subordinates and I'm going to wait Wendy calls me, this is the precious time where I get to take a break from my constant work and have some drinks at Fairy Tail.
AN: Erza is having perverted thoughts just like that! Well, blame it to the romance novels she borrowed from the library Levy works in. And for Doranbolt to buy a cat just to get closer to Wendy is really cute! And since Carla never have a good first impression on Doranbolt when they first meet in the manga, I wrote it so that she scratches him instead.
