Passing by

Lucy's pov

These couple of months sting and I have been training and to no end do I still think he's annoying. I've been sneaking away from the guild and meeting sting in the place where we first met and decided to train me. I was really glad that I was getting stronger and learning new celestial magic spells also, even though sting's training tortures me I have to admit he's been treating me like an equal. "Oye Blondie that's it for today go back to your stupid guild." Said sting as he sat in a squat position on the ground. I rolled my eyes and in a little annoying girly voice I said "Okay Sting-dono" while walking to a nearby tree to get my whip.

"I told you not to call me that!" I gritted my teeth as I saw the proud mage of fairy tail walked to a tree while teasing me and testing my patience. Geez was she annoying! She pushed all my buttons and drive me insane yet I don't know why I look forward to seeing her every day. Call it a habit but I enjoyed her company and seeing her fail and teasing her about it was entertainment to me. "Fine….stingyyyy bee" she said in a mocking voice. I was infuriated who was she to call me name? "My name is Sting S-T-I-N-G!" I shouted and got this reply. "L-U-C-Y! soo stop calling me blondie" she spat. "Psht! Whatever floats your boat" I said as she grunted. "Whatever Blondie ja ne" I waved as we both went our separate ways.

At Sabertooth guild

"Hey sting!" Minerva called as sting turned to her completely annoyed expression on his face he questioned "What?" "Where have you been? Every day your always disappearing to somewhere and not even hanging in the guild anymore or with rogue and us" she spat with eyes furious as hell. "Now give me one good reason why I would tell YOU where have I been? What are you a police officer interrogating me about my every move? Geez your so irritating" Minerva stood there shock, she never expected sting to talk to her like that at all at the mention of where he was she say fury in sting's eyes. Not less than a minute she was broken out of her trance when she realized sting was no longer in front of her and people in the guild were starring. She gritted her teeth no matter what she was gonna find out where sting was going. She stormed off and waited until tomorrow to see where sting was going. Besides her Rogue has been having his doubts as sting's scent had changed to a high scent of vanilla and strawberries which made him suspicious as to why sting is smelling like a girl. He decided to confront him later about it as seeing Minerva already tripped the fuse.

At Fairy tail guild

Lucy walked into her guild with the normal happy and excited atmosphere as she made her way to by the counter to chat with mirajane. "Mira a orange juice please" I said as she came twirling as happy as she can be by me. "Oh lucyy ! how was your day? And- OH MY!" she gasped. "What happened to you lu-chan?" asked levy.

I was confused until I looked down to see my clothes torn a little and had dirt on it. Sheesh was I so tired I hadn't notice? I brushed it off and replied its nothing although they didn't seem convince. One thing was for sure I was really relief since team natsu along with lisanna went on a mission for two weeks to be honest I since loved natsu a lot. I sighed "Mira-Jane what should I do? I can't stop thinking about him" I slouched down on my chair with a frown. When it comes to love advice Mira was a beast for it. Seriously to her the world revolves around love. "Well Lucy you know what they say!" she squealed "to get over you ex-boyfriend you need to find a new better hottie one" she winked at me. I blushed. "Ehhhhhhh! Mira no way I'm not like that I don't think I'd ever get over natsu." I sighed. "Hmmmmm! I know what would cheer you up" exclaimed Cana as she put a flyer on top of the counter. "There's a new club opening downtown on Saturday named Zen! You should go and find a new boy-toy" Cana winked at me. My face was red it could almost compete with the colour of Erza's hair. "No way am I going there" "Why not Lucy? You're not getting any younger plus you need to relief some stress besides your barely around these days is there someone you not telling us about?" said Mira with sparkles in her eyes. "N-no!" I stutter. "Then go and have some fun get laid I mean seriously get outta virgin hood will ya? Unless you're afraid" Cana spat with a wicked smile while devouring her mug of beer. "Ha! Yeah right! Lucy Heartfiliah isn't afraid of such small things! I bet I would come back with a cute boyfriend and lose my virginity too!" I yelled. Which I should not have I had no idea what came over me and members of my guild stared at me wide-eyed I felt embarrassed. Mira and Cana started to giggle as if they planned this, as I grabbed the poster from the table and made my way out of the guild. Just what the hell did I get myself into? I thought as I wandered through the streets of Fiore. Hmmmmm I know I'd ask Sting to come with me. Just the thought of sting made my heart felt warm but I just shrugged it off and dialled his number.

Sting's pov

I had just finishing showering when I heard the ringing of my blackberry. I grabbed it and saw Lucy's name on the caller id somehow I smile appeared on my face unconsciously.

"Whatcha want Blondie I'm a very busy man yuh know" I said answering the phone in a nonchalant tone.

"Psht! Well aren't we grumpy what your periods came early this month?" she mocked laughing her guts out.

"Che shut up will ya? What's your problem anyway I highly doubt you'd just call to hear the sexy amazing sting's voice" I smirked at my ignorance.

"Geez you're so cocky! I just called to ask you if you wanna go to the club with me it's called Zen and it's in the heart of Magnolia" said Lucy joyfully.

Wait did she just invite me to lime with her? Like a date? Wait- what the hell am I thinking. Club Lucy fellas drooling over her alcohol dirty dancing Lucy wearing a short dress? Sting's thoughts were going while as he took a minute to process the information. Somehow deep down inside he felt angry and jealous thinking about fellas flirting and looking at Lucy. He thought that he should be there to protect her from those bastards and perverts who'd try to lure her. Unconsciously he clenched his fists thinking about what they could do to her if he wasn't there.

"Helllloooooooooo! BEeepppppp Stingggggyyyyyy!"

"Yeah I'd go where and what time?" I said with a hint of concern in my voice.

"Yayyy! Oh well since tomorrow is Saturday we'd go at let's say 8 o' clock tomorrow night?" Lucy screeched. I could tell she was excited that I was going.

"I'd be there just don't be late!" I exclaimed and hang up the phone feeling happier than Mary-go-Poppins.
