Anyways, for those who are wanting to know when they'll confess... well only time wil tell. xD But please keep reading heheheh :)

Oh and the story is T rated for inappropiate words (bad words).


- - - - - The Message- - - - -

Lucy had summoned me to send a message to Natsu at the guild. Honestly, does Natsu really need to know the reason why she's not going to the guild today? No, right? No he doesn't. So I don't really see why Lucy needs to worry about him so much. After all, is he really going to be waiting around for her? Heck, he's probably gone and done something stupid that cause him to be knocked out right now.

Hmmm he's probably fighting with Gray right now...

"Alright Loke? If you don't mind going that is." Lucy stood in front of me, a worried look on her face.

What can I do but to accept? Lucy is asking me for a favor after all.

"Not to worry, my lovely Lucy. I will do as you wish." Bowing slightly, I transported to halfway to the guild. I needed time to time... and maybe even snoop.

Pulling the envelope out of my blazer, I peer at its contents. Short letter, quick writing, and a lot of sorry's.

"My my, Lucy, this is definitely not how you should play this confessing game." Grinning slightly, instead of going to the guild, I headed to the bakery where they make Erza's favorite cakes; exactly where Erza is now.

We spirits although can not pass through the gate on our record most of the time except for exceptional ones such as I and Virgo, but that does not we can not eavesdrop on our Master's conversations. We have an unbreakable. A bond of trust, love, and friendship. Or as Aquarious calls it, a bond that allows us to eavesdrop on Lucy. But I see it as a bond for me to know what she's feeling.

And lately, Lucy has been feeling bothered and confused. Many times she would blush out of nowhere and start talking to herself. Sometime she would even voice her thoughts into her diary. Of course we know what she says and where she hid it as well.

We know everything about what's happening to Lucy. Even though we have this bond, Lucy cannot eavesdrop on us. It's only a one way bond. Lucky for us, most times.

Because I and the other spirits are sure Lucy wouldn't want anyone knowing how she's feeling... Especially a certain someone.

"That's why I'm doing this Lucy... for you."

Sensing the scarlet head on the move, I decided to meet her there. In a flash, I stood in front of Erza and Cana who were suprise of my sudden appearance.

"Loke." Erza blinked twice while Cana waved flirtingly at me. Surely she's drunk since she wouldn't do that if she was sober.

Flipping the bangs out of my face, I reacted to how I do when I'm around beautiful women. Sometimes I can't help it. It's like Gray's stripping thing, it's a habit I have developed from surviving in the human world. And of course my good looks also gives me a huge ego as well.

"Good afternoon, beautiful ladies. I couldn't help but notice your prescence and rushed myself all the way over here."

Draping my arm around Cana's shoulders, I made extra sure to not touch Erza. I wouldn't want to become like Natsu and Gray whenever Erza gets angry. That's goal as of right now: Don't piss Erza off.

"Hehehehehhhh Lokeeeeyyyy ... *hic* Long tiiiime no seeee." Cana drunkly smiled, ruffling my use to be perfect hair. "*hic* Heeey, your hair is soooooft... heh..."

"Ugh Cana! You ruined the mood."

I was too occupied with the card mage to notice Erza had a spear pointed to the side of my head. Her hand tightly gripped my shoulder, menacingly.

"Loke, surely you didn't come all the way here to mess around? We're very busy as of now. State your business, unless you would like to be ruffled. And I assure you, it won't be as gentle as Cana's ruffling your head."

Okay Loke. Stay cool. You've never been subjected to Erza's punishments before. You can do this. Play it cool. DON'T PISS ERZA OFF...ANYMORE THAN THIS.

"Ah right! I was suppose to deliver a letter to Natsu from Lucy..."

"Yes, and?" Painfully aware of the spear moving closer to my head, I slowly stopped the advancement with my index and middle finger.

She allowed it to be moved away from my face and fell beside her but ready to attack at any given moment.

"... And I thought that I wanted to be part of this whole 'Lucy confessing to Natsu' shenanigan."

Erza relaxed but not before widening her eyes, "How do you know about that? Surely Lucy doesn't talk about those kinds of things with you."

"You're quite right! She doesn't, which is a shame. But you see, Erza, between the spirits and Lucy, we have a bond. The type of bond that allows us spirits to know exactly what she's feeling and when her emotions are strong enough, we can listen to her conversations. It's quite an useful bond for when we need to know if our Lucy is ever in dang-"

"AAAAH!"

What was that? I was in the middle of talking and all of a sudden something flew past me. It was so fast that I couldn't to see what it was. And if I was standing a little bit to the left, it would be my body against the stone wall.

Looking at the spear, I noticed it was the same spear Erza had pointed me with. All of a sudden, the minacious aura from being me made sense.

Should I turn around? Should I not? I'm kinda scare to...

"Loke." Erza's commanding tone had me turning around faster than Scorpio's sandstorm.

"Y-yes Erza!" I crunched down, slowly planning my escape, forgetting what I had origninally came here to do.

Now I know how frighten Natsu and Gray must have feel in order to fake getting along with each other. Erza's a demon! She looks like one too, with her scarlet hair flowing around her, her bangs covering her left eye... leaving her right eye turning into a red eye!

"You were... EAVESDROPPING ON LUCY?" Erza roared, shaking the ground.

"Whooo go Erza!" Cana cheered on the side, as if she knew this was how their encounter was going to result.

Whipping my head make eye contact with Cana, I beggingly yelled, "Cana, help me please! Save me from this bakemono!"

Cana simply turned to the side and jugged down the rest of her flask.

Ugh... What did I do wrong... I was just showing off...

"I won't forgive you Loke. Come! I will teach you how to respect a young maiden's privacy!" Erza charged towards me, spinning her spear to gain acceleration.

Giving up, I shouted the one thing I hope would be enough to stop her. "There's still Lucy's note!"
Covering my handsome face with both my arms, expecting a collison, but instead Erza simply held her hand out, asking for the note.

"Ah yes. Here you are."

Erza inspected the note's contents along with Cana's eyes.

After finishing, Erza nodded once, understanding what I sought her ought for.

"Thank you for seeking us out Loke. You did a good thing." Erza smiled before trading her spear with a pair of scissors.

"Uh Erza, what are you doing?"

Without answering, she swiftly cut the note into tiny pieces, making sure to count as she cuts. "Hmmm a hundred pieces should be good."

I looked at her in bewilderment. "And what exactly do I do with those pieces?"

"Nothing, absolutely nothing." Erza tossed the pieces into the trashcan.

"So... what do I do now?"

Erza smiled kindly at the leader of the zodiac, "Simply return to the Spirit World as if you've completed your job. If Natsu is really worried about Lucy not visiting the guild today, then he'll take matter in his own actions and do something about it."

"Ooooh Erzaaaa how naughty, getting Natsu to visit Lucy's apartment."

Erza turned away with a slight blush, "As if Natsu can even do something naughty to Lucy in her apartment. Besides he may be a male, but he's as dense as a rock."

Cana agreed, "Even Gray isn't as dense as he is!"

"Alright then, ladies. Unlike you here, I must return to the Spirit World to rest. I bid goodbye."


I returned to my world, notifying Lucy and proceed to rest, wondering how in the world Lucy is going to get through to Natsu's thick skull.

Hopefully he's not as dense as everyone says he is...

If he is...

"Lucy, I don't want you to get hurt..." I managed to say before sleep overtook me.


DIIING!

The sound indicates that Loke had returned to the Spirit World. Patting the key holder on Lucy's desk, she returned to her writing.

"Good, that must mean he got the message to Natsu. Thank you Loke."

A faint voice echoed from her key holder, "Lucy, I don't want you to get hurt..."

Lucy smiled softly, silently thanking the spirits for caring about her.

She knows that even if she does get hurt, she'll have her spirits there to comfort her.

"I won't be alone."

"Thank you."


A/N: Yes! I wanted to fill in gaps... lol... yeah I'm just making the story longer than it needs to be. But I'm also testing myself to see if I'm capable of writing multiple chapters since in the past I had problems with that...

Anyways, thanks for reading!

P.S. The next chapter will probably be long...

See you guys next time~
