Not only that but I also have some other stories out if you want to give them a look. This chapter is Vincent centered. So this will be all about his date with Mirajane. I hope you guys enjoy the chapter.
*Fairy Hills*
It was night time at the female dormitory for most of the female mages of Fairy Tail, Fairy Hills. The building itself was a three story building far from the guild, near a cliff where the girls could use the beach area down below as their own private beach. If one was to look at it from the sky, the building looked to be in the shape of the letter 'H'. It even had a small porch area in the front and a tree in the back. No boys were allowed for really good reasons; one was that it was for girls only. The other main reason was that the boys did have a dorm for most of their male members. However, it was destroyed from a normal brawl between the guys getting a little too crazy.
The residents of Fairy Hills were currently all in Erza's rooms. She had about five rooms for herself to keep some armors she doesn't use or because she couldn't keep in her Requip dimension. The girls were all trying to help Mira out and prepare her for her date with Vincent for tomorrow afternoon.
"This is a mighty big shock to see." Erza said for the other girls and Mira to hear. "I would never have expected to hear you actually asking someone out Mira. Especially someone from another guild like Vincent Wilson." She had been Mirajane's rival for a while but they had been on good terms since she became a barmaid.
"Well at least she didn't agree to date someone like Ichiya." Bisca told her. She was one of the resident gun mages in the guild. She was wearing a black dress with a white trim at the ends, red cowgirl boots and a yellow cowgirl hat. It matched her long green hair very well. She had a crush on the other gun mage the guild had, Alzack. He had a crush on her as well but neither one made the first move, afraid of ruining their friendship.
All of the girls shivered at the thought of Ichiya. He wasn't what they would call, appealing to them or any normal woman. "Bisca's got a good point." Levy commented. The girls were looking at different clothes they all brought that could fit Mira for what she could wear for her date. "Out of every mage she could've asked, Vincent does seem to be the nicest one. He didn't do anything perverted to her body when he was stuck in her body earlier. So that's a plus right there."
All of the girls nodded right there as they went back to helping Mira picked an outfit for her date tomorrow. "Hey Mira, how about something like this?" Cana asked as she pulled out a very tight looking dress that seemed like it wouldn't fit all that well.
"Um, no thanks Cana. Maybe we can try something more casual?" Mira asked as she wanted this to be a nice date.
"Hey Mira, how about these jeans then?" Lucy asked as she brought out a pair of jeans and handed them to her.
"Let me try them on." Mira said as she put them on to see if they did fit them. "Hey these fit me very nicely, I think I'll wear these then." She said as she needed more clothes that went with them. They all agreed that Mira should go with a more casual style of clothing so they went with Lisanna's help, seeing as she wore more casual clothes than most of them do.
"So while Lisanna helps her sister out," Laki said as she looked at the other girls, "Maybe we can help her with advice about being on a date with a nice guy. So it begs the question, have any of us been on a date before?" Some of the girls looked at each other with concern looks. Most of them hadn't been on a date before.
"What about you Lucy?" Levy asked her as Lucy blushed from being put on the spot light. "Have you ever been on a date, or a boyfriend before coming to the guild?"
"T-totally, I've had like three before joining." Lucy said as she blushed trying to make herself sound more convincing.
"That's a lie and a very bad one too." Cana said as she called her out on it. "You never had one of either before have you?"
"No." Lucy sighed in defeat. "Before I joined Fairy Tail, the only guys who wanted to date me either wanted to make another girl jealous or tried to get into my panties." Lucy explained to them as they all understood that perfectly. There always were those kinds of guys looking for another notch to add to their belt. Luckily, Lucy learned some self defense moves and has some pepper spray on her person at times.
"If any of those punks try to do that to us, then they will taste the sharp steel of my blades." Erza said as she whipped out a sword to prove her point.
"Hey, no swords in my room Erza, you know the rule!" Mira shouted to her as Lisanna was getting closer to finishing up her sister's attire for her big date.
"I bet you would love it if a certain Dragon Slayer was able to get into your panties, huh Lucy?" Cana whispered into Lucy's ear causing her to blush full red as Cana groped her from behind. Cana knew about Lucy's and Lisanna's crush on Ryuma, she may have to talk about that to them went the moment was right. Now was not that moment.
"CANA!" she said in embarrassment and jumped away from her in shock. It didn't really help her that the night before she had a very raunchy dream about Ryuma doing things like that to her. It got even kinkier with his dragon form especially what he did with his tail. It didn't help her even more knowing that Ryu saw her and Lisanna in their underwear in the guild earlier today.
"Well, in hopes to prevent even more embarrassing moments about our failed love lives being said aloud," Levy said as she pulled out some books. "Maybe we should look over some of these books on dates and what they could tell us to help out Mira."
"That's a good idea Levy," Lucy said as they all looked over these books and checked what sounds right for a date and what doesn't. After a few minutes of reading and taking small notes, Cana decided to say something to two of her friends.
"Hey Lisanna, Lucy, I want to apologize for my actions earlier today when I was in Ryuma's body." Cana said as she apologized to both girls.
"Apology accepted Cana." Lisanna said to her as she was adding the finishing touches to Mirajane's outfit.
"Yeah same here, just promise that if we're ever in a position like that again, to be more careful with those claws of Ryuma's." Lucy said to her as she made sure not to say anything about Ryuma being half-dragon by accident. Some of the girls here didn't know about that side of Ryu.
"I will certainly try my best." Cana said as she tried to promise that.
"Okay girls what do you think?" Lisanna asked as she showed them Mira's attire for her date tomorrow. All of the girls looked and saw that Mira looked amazing in the casual clothes that she was wearing but something felt off a bit.
"It looks good, but something is still missing," Laki pointed out to her. All the girls thought over on what was missing with her outfit before Laki realized it, "Oh that's it, we need some shoes that go with the outfit." The girls knew that Laki was right, they needed some shoes that worked along with Mira's casual outfit.
After trying to match some shoes with Mira's new look, Levy said out loud, "What about Cana's high heel sandals?" After Cana gave Mirajane a pair of her sandals for her, the girls noticed how it worked very well with the outfit.
"Perfect, not only do you have the perfect outfit, but also a great man to have a date with. You're very lucky Mirajane." Lucy complimented her as she was a bit jealous. She wished that she would have a great guy to be with and to treat her like she was very special. She had to shake her thoughts away from that when the image of Ryuma helping her came to mind.
"Let's just enjoy ourselves now and relax for tonight, and have a big slumber party before my big date tomorrow." Mirajane told them as all of the girls began to relax and had a good girl's night in. Mirajane was a bit nervous as she began to wonder what could possibly happen on the big date.
*Fairy Tail Guild*
Earlier that day, Vincent was beginning to worry about what would happen on his date with the lovely Mirajane. He had never been on a date before and had no idea what to do while on a date. He began to ponder for a while and paced his hotel room to try to come up with an idea. He was already good with the clothes he will be wearing later so all he needed was advice on what to do. He had a good idea on just who to go to for advice on his date with Mirajane and where to take her as he was still unfamiliar with Magnolia.
As he entered the guild hall, he noticed how everything had been a lot calmer and things looked like nothing bad would happen yet. He needed to do this quickly as he has seen the normal brawls that happen in this guild hall on a regular basis. He didn't want to be a part of that again. As he made his way through the guild, he had finally found the person who would help him out the most with his date later. It was Lisanna, and she had just handed Ryuma a mug of his usual nonalcoholic beverage as she went back to behind the bar.
"Um, excuse me," Vincent said to Lisanna as he got her attention. "I need some help with making my date with your older sister really good." Lisanna saw the genuine look on his face and knew that he needed help big time.
"Sure thing Vincent, come here and let me help you." Lisanna told him as he sat at the bar and began to ask her questions.
"I have no idea where to go and I want to make a good first impression for your sister. I mean she's a model and I need to make sure I don't screw it up badly. Where does she like to go?" Vincent explained to Lisanna. She saw that he was really worried about screwing this up with her big sister.
"Okay here's what you need to know to help you out," Lisanna began to explain to him. "My big sister on her days off, she tends to do some window shopping at some of the jewelry. She mostly looks at necklaces, so you can walk by this one shop on Emerald Street that she windows shops at the most." Lisanna told him as he got an idea on seeing which necklace she looked at the most and buy it for her. "Then she also likes to go to this one restaurant that serves some of the best noodles in town, it's right by the park that is the only one in town with a huge tree in it. Not only that, but afterwards a few times she likes to go to this one hill in Magnolia and sometimes watches the sunset."
After Lisanna told him all of this, he knew that this was the best advice that he could ever get for his big date. "Just curious about something, why did you ask me for advice? Why not ask one of the other guys in the guild for dating advice instead?" She asked him as curiosity got the best of her.
"Well I don't really know that many people here and some of the guys seem like the kind that are either oblivious like Natsu, Gray, and Ryuma. While some others seem to be drowning their sorrows in beer like those two old guys over there," Vincent explained as he pointed at Wakaba and Macao. Lisanna understood that perfectly, they were always sad and complained about some things. "Also, you seemed to be the nicer one to be asking questions about when it comes to dating your older sister as I think your brother would want to hurt me before I take Mira on the date." Lisanna can understand that very well, Elfman seemed to be a bit too overprotective of them.
And as the universe seemed to listen to her thought at that moment, it gave her a perfect example. "WHAT THE HELL?!" Elfman shouted out loud as he walked away from Happy, "Ryuma, you son of a bitch!" he yelled as he approached Ryuma. Ryuma looked shocked and worried by why Elfman was coming towards him with in an angry expression.
"H-hey Elfman, what seems to be the problem?" Ryu quickly asked him as he wasn't sure why he was angry at him this time. "Look, if this is about what happened yesterday, Cana was in my body at the time and I had nothing to do with Lucy's and Lisanna's wardrobe accident."
"It's not about that you jerk!" Elfman said as he began to get angrier. "Happy told me about what happened in Hargeon about a week ago and what you saw." Ryu remembered slightly what Elfman was talking about and tried to defuse the situation quickly. Once the memory of that event with Lisanna came back, he tried to defuse the situation.
"Whoa, Happy is a dirty liar and nothing happened okay." Ryu tried his best to calm down Elfman before he got past angry. However…
"But Ryu, it's true." Happy said as he munched on a blue fish. "You did faint from a nosebleed and knocked yourself out when Lisanna flashed her boobies at you." Happy said out loud for the whole guild to hear. Silence was the only thing everyone could hear at that moment. Some of the guys were blushing at the thought. They were also jealous at hearing what Happy just said and envied Ryuma for seeing what he saw.
Vincent turned to a blushing Lisanna and asked, "Okay, wow. That sounds like a pretty bold move for you to do there. Why did you do that anyway?" He asked her as he had seen her interactions with Ryuma and knew that she and two other girls did have a crush on the Dragon Slayer but wasn't noticing it.
"I-It's kind of hard to explain really." Lisanna explained to him as she tried to hide her blushing face out of embarrassment. She wasn't really expecting someone to bring that up in the guild out loud and she thought that no one saw her do that besides Lucy and Ryuma that day. Lisanna felt like she could literally die from embarrassment right there.
The silence was interrupted however as Elfman changed both of his arms into lizard-like in appearance and decided to go after Ryuma. "AAAAAAAAHHHH," Ryuma shouted as he ran away from the very angry Elfman.
"I got to stop this, hope your date goes well Vincent." Lisanna told him as she jumped over the bar and chased her brother. "Elf-nii-san, stop chasing Ryu. Please don't hurt him." Lisanna yelled at her big brother trying to get him to stop chasing her crush and to not have him hurt.
"Oh don't worry, I won't hurt him." Elfman said as he chased Ryu out of the guild hall. Ryu felt happy about that until he heard what Elfman said after that, "I'm just gonna make him less of a man!" After hearing that, Ryu ran faster than ever before out of fear of what Elfman would do to him if he caught him. Lisanna chased after them as she tried to make sure Elfman didn't hurt Ryuma too much.
Vincent looked at the three mages running out of the guild and then murmured to himself, "I hope my date turns out better than what's happening here. I also hope Elfman wears himself out before my date or I maybe in Ryuma's shoes really soon." Vincent got up and walked out of the guild to get ready for the big date.
*Fairy Hills*
Vincent was standing outside the building waiting nervously to Mira come out and meet him for their date. He was wearing casual red sneakers with white accents, faded jeans, and a blue, loose, long-sleeved open jacket-like top with a raised collar and hood over his black long sleeve shirt. He tried to get in normally, but the landlady told him that this was a girl's only dorm and that she would inform Mirajane that her date has arrived.
"Okay Vincent," He told himself to calm his nerves. "You can do this man; you're going on a date with a pretty girl like Mirajane. Just behave and be yourself and nothing can go wrong. She's just as pretty as any other girl. Oh who am I kidding, she's the most beautiful girl you've ever seen." He said to himself not realizing that Mirajane was standing right behind him when he said that to himself.
"Oh why thank you Vincent." Mirajane said causing him to jump in his spot. He turned around to see Mira in her attire for their date that night. She was wearing a blue and white striped t-shirt with the word 'Naughty' written on the chest area with devil horns and tail with angel wings and a halo above the word. She also had a pair of jeans on with a pair of sandal wedges that worked well with the outfit she was wearing.
"Mira, wow you look really amazing." Vincent told her as he was blushing and taken aback by seeing how beautiful she is even in more casual clothes. The reason why he was blushing was because her clothes looked like it was clinging closely to her body. "Um, how long you were standing there?" He wasn't sure how long she had been standing right behind him.
"Not that long." Mira told him with a smile on her face. "So ready for a date with an amazingly, beautiful girl?" She said with a saucy wink. Mirajane was nervous as well, but held a strong demeanor to calm her nerves down.
"Yeah I sure am, now may I ask for this lovely lady to follow me for a wonderful date?" Vincent asked her as he held out his hand for her. Mira blushed at that gesture as this was a bold move and knew that she would be treated kindly.
"Of course this lovely lady would love to follow this gentleman for a lovely date." Mira said as she grabbed hold of his hand and then looped her arm around his and they walked off to enjoy their date.
As they walked down one of Magnolia's main streets as they arrived at Emerald Street. "Hey I know this place." Mirajane pointed out as she wasn't expecting to arrive here, one of the places she goes to at times whenever she has time off.
"Really?" Vincent asked as he faked his ignorance.
"Yeah sometimes I go here to see some of the jewelry and see what would look really good on me." Mira explained to him as she went to look at some of the jewels that were shown in some shop windows. Vincent noticed that while she had looked at the windows of a few of the jewelry stores, she kept going back to one in particular, a small shop called Pearls of Wisdom.
As they entered the store, Vincent couldn't help but notice that Mirajane was walking around and looking at all of the merchandise. 'Okay Vincent, think.' He thought to himself as he saw Mira looking at the jewels. 'One of these necklaces is the one she has her eyes on the most, so it's either the most expensive one or the most popular one.'
As Vincent watched Mirajane closely, and saw which necklaces she viewed at, she kept going back to one in particular. It was a sterling silver necklace that was styled to look like an angel wing on one side with a demon wing on the other, at the bottom of the necklace there appeared to be tails looping each other. In the center of the necklace there was a sapphire blue gem in the middle that brought your eyes to the center. "Or it could be the most unique looking one." Vincent whispered to himself as he didn't want Mirajane to hear him say that. He did see the price of it and saw that it was very affordable. He did wonder why Mira didn't just buy it for herself.
"So Mira, do you see anything you like?" Vincent asked as he approached Mira. She turned to him and sadly shook her head no.
"Sorry, nothing really caught my eye." Mira said as she was about to leave the shop. "Come on Vincent, let's go somewhere else and enjoy ourselves." Mira told him as she wanted to see what else he had in store for her on their date.
"In a minute, I have to use the restroom." Vincent told her as she waited outside the store. When he knew Mira wasn't looking and in the room, he turned to the clerk behind the table. "Hey buddy," Vincent told the clerk getting her attention. "I would like to purchase this necklace for my friend Mira." He told her as he pointed to the necklace that Mira kept going back to.
"Excellent choice my good sir. Miss Mirajane has always kept an eye on this one particular item. We tried to sell this to her in the past but for some reason, she kept holding it off. It's as if she was waiting for something." The clerk told Vincent as he paid for the whole thing and wrapped it up in a special case for him to give Mira.
As he pocketed the case he walked out to catch up with Mira who was waiting for him just outside the store. "Sorry if I kept you waiting, milady." Vincent said to her as she giggled at his polite antics.
"It is okay my gentleman, come let's continue this date." Mira said as she looped her arm around his and he led her to the next destination.
*South Gate Park*
Vincent had led Mira towards South Gate Park, a park that was one of the famous meeting places of Magnolia. It's a park that was slightly below street level with some steps and smooth ramps to lead people into the park. There was even a large tree in the middle of the park. As they arrived at the park, Mira's stomach let out a good roar of hunger. She blushed as she didn't want for her stomach to do make a loud noise like that.
"I take it you're hungry?" Vincent asked as he knew from the sound of her stomach that she seemed to be very hungry.
"M-maybe," Mira told him as she was still slightly embarrassed by her stomach growling like that.
"I think I know the perfect spot for a delicious meal." Vincent said as he pointed to a noodle cart stand on the edge of the park. It was a very simple and popular one for the people of Magnolia as some of the best noodles in town, it was called "A Wok by the Park."
"Oh I love their noodles come on Vincent." Mirajane said as she practically dragged him by the arm to grab a spot at the cart.
As they got two spots right next to each other, the owner/chef came out from behind a curtain to greet his new customers. He was a simple old man with balding grey hair, a simple green collared shirt with a red apron on. As he was about to greet his new customers, he was shocked to see his favorite repeat customer arrive. "Ah, Mirajane. It's so nice to see one of my favorite repeat customers return to my humble noodle stand." The owner stated as he saw her with a very nice looking lad. "Who's this handsome fellow here? Is this the man who can tame the fierce demon named Mirajane?" The owner teased as they both blushed at hearing that.
"Oh please stop, you're embarrassing us." Mira told the owner as she was blushing really badly.
"Oh alright." The owner told her. "I'll be right back just got to help another customer." He told them as they sat in silence for a while.
"Hey Mira," Vincent said as he got her attention and stopped blushing. "What did he mean by 'The Fierce Demon' comment?" He had never heard of that nickname for Mirajane. The only one he had heard before was that of her modeling career and being a centerfold for Sorcerer Weekly.
"Oh that, well you see before I became a model for the magazine I was once an active S-class mage in Fairy Tail." Mira explained to him. "I was very skilled in a special kind of Take-Over magic where I could take over the form of Demons. Believe it or not, I was a lot scarier and a much more different girl than I am now."
"Really? Because I cannot see you being something different than this." Vincent said as he cannot picture this lovely lady being a different kind of person.
"No really, I wore some more revealing gothic style clothing and was much scarier looking. However," Mirajane said as she looked a bit sad at that moment. "That all changed about two years ago when I was on a mission with my brother and sister. We went to take on this beast that was terrorizing some of the villages and prevent more death and destruction from spreading. I was cocky and I got injured during the mission. I couldn't save them from the beast and I almost lost my family that night. After that mission we were able to survive thanks to Ryuma coming to save us from almost dying, so I decided to retire from active duty and worked at the guild as a barmaid and later came into the modeling business."
Vincent was shocked to hear all of this. He had no idea that Mira's past was tragic and filled with some dread. "It must've taken a lot to confide in me like that," he said, causing Mirajane to nod. "If it makes you feel any better, I have absolutely no memory of my life before two years ago," Vincent told her, surprising her.
"Really?" Mira asked as she was curious about why this is about him.
"Yeah. Everything before Cait Shelter is one big blank," Vincent said as he tapped on the side of his head. "The last thing I really remember was a big blank spot, and then my imouto finding me in the woods before dragging me back to the guild. Other than that, I have no recollection of my past, though I still try to make the most of it. If I can't remember my past, I'll just have to do my hardest to remember the days I do remember."
Mira was taken back by how he has no recollection of his past and tries to make the most of it with his guild and little sister. "It's all we can do at times, make the most of it with people we trust and care for." She replied as she held his hand. Vincent blushed at her holding his hand, he had known her for a while and she never flirted with him like this before. He couldn't help but stare into her lovely eyes as they showed so much compassion.
Just as he was about to say something else, "Are you two lovebirds ready to order or do you want to make out first?" The owner returned to them as he finished his other customer's orders and drinks. Mira and Vincent both blushed full red in embarrassment and looked at the owner. He couldn't help but chuckle at doing that, he may not see a lovely couple like them much, but that didn't mean that he couldn't help himself there.
The couple were looking over the menu's as they got ready to place their order. "Well, I'll have the chicken miso ramen please." Mirajane said as she placed her usual order.
Vincent was having a difficult time picking which ramen to choose as he looked over the menu. "I think I will go with the pork miso ramen please." He would have tried some of the other ones but they would have left his breath to smell. He didn't want to worry about something like that while on a date.
"You got it then, I'll be back in about 15 seconds." The owner said as he quickly went into the back. Vincent was confused by this.
"Hey Mira what did he mean by that, doesn't it take longer to make food like-" Vincent was about to say more before two large bowls of steaming hot ramen right in front of them. "How… What?" he was shocked by how fast that took and how the food looked ready to eat and fully cooked.
"I should explain," Mira told him to help Vincent understand what happened. "This place is famous for the fastest ramen made in Magnolia. He uses a variety of magic to prepare and cook the meal."
"Oh okay," Vincent said as both he and Mira ate their meals. As he tasted his, he was amazed by the taste of the broth and the rich flavor of the noodles and pork. "Holy crap this is amazing." He began to enjoy his food even more.
Mira was happy to see him enjoy his food. She knew that someone told him about this being one of her favorite places to eat. She didn't mind at all because she really was having a good time. All the times she had seen him before, he was acting like a bodyguard for her and the other models for Sorcerer Weekly. He was strict about who can see the girls and who couldn't, but he was very shy when he was the model at some occasions. She was happy to see this calmer side of him.
"So I take it your enjoying the food?" Mira asked him as she saw him drink some of the broth.
"Oh yeah this is really good food here. I'm so glad your sister told me about this place." Vincent said before realizing what he had said. "Oops."
"So it was my baby sister who helped you out with where to go for this date huh?" Mirajane asked him in a calm and nice voice. She had a feeling that someone helped him out as she knew that he was unfamiliar with the town and brought her to several places she frequented.
Vincent knew he was busted and couldn't play it off so he confessed. "Yes she helped me. I was just so worried about screwing up this date and all that I panicked about what to do for this date that I asked Lisanna for advice."
"I should thank her because this is really a great time that I'm having." Mira said as she finished her meal before Vincent did as he paid for their meal. "Where is she anyway?"
"Well…" Vincent was about to tell her before a scream was coming towards them from the distance. Everyone at the stand turned to look down the street to see someone run towards them. As the person got closer, it was revealed to be Ryuma as he was still being chased by Elfman. "Seriously? The guy's still chasing Ryuma after what Happy said in the guild. Man Mira, your brother sure is determined when he sets his sights on something."
"Yeah he can be a hand full at times. But, why is he chasing Ryuma? And what did Happy say?" Mirajane asked as she wasn't in the guild all day to know why this was happening.
"That is something you should ask Lisanna about." Vincent quickly told her as this was something he did not want to repeat. Mira wasn't sure why her sister was involved in this and was about to say something before a funny sight came around.
"DON'T HURT HIM ELF-NII-SAN!" Lisanna rushed at her big brother and slammed him in the head with a club, knocking him out swiftly. Ryuma was still running as he didn't hear Lisanna knocking out her brother. She started to drag Elfman away from the scene before seeing Mira and Vincent staring at her. "Oh don't mind me, just continue enjoying your date now." She told them as she left the scene.
"How long has that chase been going on for?" Mira asked Vincent as he knew a bit more about what had just happened more than her.
"About a few hours before I got to your place." Vincent told her. "You know what, let's try to forget about what we just saw and enjoy our time here in the park." Vincent asked her as he wanted to have some nice alone time with Mira.
"That sounds like a lovely idea there." Mira responded as they spent the rest of the day at the park enjoying the serene, peaceful nature at the park. They sat by one of the nearby benches as they watched the peaceful scenery around them. They saw families playing with their kids, people flying kites, heck they even saw a guy proposing to his partner for their hand in marriage. Vincent and Mira both looked at each other as they saw the proposal and unconsciously pictured each other getting married, they both looked away in embarrassment.
"Well, seeing how well this date is going Mira," Vincent said finally getting the image of Mira in an elegant flowing wedding dress. "I do have a special gift for you." He told her as he pulled out a jewelry box and presented it to her.
As Mira held onto the box, she opened it to see what was inside and was amazed by it. "Oh my, this is very beautiful Vincent." She said as she pulled out the necklace she kept eyeing in the store. "You planned this too didn't you?"
"Well, yeah. I noticed you kept looking at this when we were in that store so I got it for you." Vincent explained to her. "There is one thing that is bothering me, it wasn't the most expensive item at the jeweler's so how come you haven't bought it for yourself?" Vincent asked her as he was curious about it.
"Well, I always did want to buy it for myself but held it off. I mostly waited for the right moment to get this item." Mirajane explained to him.
"Dare I ask what that 'right moment' was?"
"Easy, I waited for a kind and genuine gentleman to get it for me." Mira told him as he sported a bit of red on his face from embarrassment. "Do you want to help me put the necklace on?"
"Oh sure," Vincent agreed as he helped Mira put the necklace on. She moved her hair over her shoulder after turning her back to him. He helped her place the necklace around her neck and tied it up in the back. When it was locked in, he let her know that it was done. "Okay Mira, it's locked in."
Mirajane pulled out a small compact mirror to look at herself. She was very happy to see that the necklace Vincent got her looked great on her. She always did imagine what the necklace looked like her, but now she loves it even more. "Oh thank you so much Vincent." She hugged him as she couldn't be any happier at the moment.
Vincent was caught off guard by the hug, but he quickly snapped out of the shock to return the hug to her. After that moment, he noticed something surprising. "Wow, it's starting to get dark out." Mira looked up at the sky to notice that he was right, it was starting to get dark out.
"You're right, I guess this means that the date is coming to a close." Mira pouted a bit as she was having such a great time.
"Looks like it, do you mind if I walk you home milady?" Vincent asked her as he didn't want to leave her all by herself when she's heading home. That and If Carla ever heard he did that, she would never let him live it down.
"Why of course my good man." Mira answered as she held his arm and they walked back to her residence. As they walked to her place, some of the towns people who saw them were whispering to themselves about Mirajane having a boyfriend. Since Vincent is a wind mage, he was able to hear the whispers very easily and was blushing a bit from embarrassment.
They finally made it back to the girl's dorm after a long walk through town. "Well I had myself a great time today, we should definitely do this again soon." Vincent said as he held the door open for Mirajane.
Mira was sad that the date was over and wanted to do something special for him. Mira looked to see if the landlady was inside, luckily for her the landlady wasn't there. This was the perfect moment for her, "Hey you know what, how about I bring you up to my room for some nice drinks for the two of us to enjoy?" She asked him before she went inside.
"Oh, um I'm not su-" Vincent could only say before Mira dragged him into the dorm and brought him upstairs to her room. He was amazed by how interesting her apartment looked. It was a simple apartment room with an open kitchen and a dining room that also functioned as a living room as well. He could also see that her bedroom door was open and saw that there was a punk Lolita style to it. It was slightly frilly and punkish, but it wasn't over the top or subtle, just enough to fit her style.
"Sorry for dragging you up here, but I wanted to treat you to some nice tea and snacks." Mirajane explained herself.
"Oh, um sure why not." Vincent responded as he wasn't expecting that. He saw her head to the kitchen to prepare the tea and pulled out some crackers as well. "This is a really nice place you have here Mirajane."
"Why thank you. Most of the girls from the guild live here, so it's very nice and welcoming." Mirajane told him. "Although I wish the rent was smaller."
"Why's that, is it too expensive or something?" Vincent asked as this was a nice place.
"The rent is 100,000 jewels a month per room." She told him as the tea was ready and brought it over to the small table for them. She did make another trip to bring out some cups for them to enjoy the tea with.
"Really, damn that's a lot for rent. Wait, 'per room'?" Vincent asked again as he wanted to make sure he heard correctly.
"Yeah Erza's lives here as well and she has about five rooms in this dorm mostly for her armors that she has collected."
"Wow, just wow." Vincent said Mirajane poured him some tea. Vincent took a small sip of the tea and said, "This is some really great tea here Mirajane. So I got to ask, is there a guy's dorm or do only the girls get that privilege?"
"No, the guys did have a dorm." Mirajane explained to him. "I say did because, one night some of the guys got into a fight about something and totally destroyed the building. Any guy found here does get thrown out, but some girls sneak a guy in once in a while. At the most part only 3 guys from the guild have been able to get in, Elfman, Natsu, and Ryuma."
"Honestly, if I didn't know your guild before today I would be surprised." Vincent said as he ate a cracker and drank some tea. "I can understand why Elfman is allowed in, mostly because he's your brother, but why Natsu and Ryuma?"
"Natsu has this bad habit of coming in through the window of his friend's place, he sometimes sneaks into Erza's to try and prank her but fails miserably. Ryuma's allowed because he has helped some of the girls here move some of their things into their rooms." Mirajane told him as it made sense.
"Okay I can believe both of those statements right there. So may I ask what the reason is for bringing me up here besides the tea and crackers?" Vincent asked as he didn't know what Mirajane's plan was.
Mirajane looked bashful when Vincent asked that question. "W-well, this is actually an apology for what happened the other day when that whole body-swapping incident occurred."
"What do you mean, I didn't do anything to you while I was in your body. Oh god, no matter how many times that is said out loud, it still sounds so perverted." Vincent said in a dejected tone for saying it out loud again.
"Actually it's about something I did." Mirajane explained as Vincent took a sip from his cup. "When I was in your body I looked down your pants and saw what you had down there." Vincent performed a spit-take spitting his tea away from Mira when she told him.
"You did WHAT?!" Vincent blushed as Mirajane confessed to that.
"I'm so sorry, I plan to make it up to you." Mira said as she stood up for a moment.
"N-no, you don't really have t- HOLY SHIT!" Vincent said as he saw Mirajane taking her top off to revealing her bare breasts to Vincent. He tried to look away from Mirajane's beautiful, flawless breasts but he kept looking back seeing her pink nipples. He even noticed the necklace he got for her sitting right between her breasts. "What the hell are you doing Mira, put your top back on."
"I'm sorry for startling you Vincent, but I need to do this for you to forgive me for violating your personal space." She said as she got closer to him. "I want to apologize to you so I want you to grope my chest."
"I-I can't do that; I accept your apology. You don't have to do this anymore." Vincent tried to tell her but that was before Mirajane grabbed his hands and placed them on her boobs. He tried to pull his hands off her breasts but found himself not doing that. As his hands laid there on Mirajane's chest, he couldn't help but be amazed how not only were they voluptuous and big, they were also soft yet firm as well. Mirajane meanwhile was freaking out on the inside, she did this all on the spot and didn't think this through. But seeing as how Vincent wasn't letting go she was relieved by this. She even let out a small lustful moan when she felt him squeeze her breasts lightly. She wished this moment would last forever until…
"Hey Mira, me and Lucy wanted to ask you a ques-" Lisanna opened the door as she and Lucy looked on at seeing a topless Mirajane being groped by Vincent in her living room. The girls were having a small bonding moment when they got curious about what if they were in a guy's body yesterday. They didn't ask Cana for fear of teasing so they went to ask Mirajane about that.
Vincent and Mira were both like deer in the headlights and were frozen in place as they didn't know what to do next.
"Well sorry for bothering you two, we'll just leave now and never tell anyone what we just saw." Lucy told them as they closed the door, with a blushing face.
A few seconds after the door closed, Vincent turned away to hide his embarrassed face as Mira was blushing full red and quickly put her top back on. "Oh my god that was the most embarrassing moment of my life." Mirajane said as she was still blushing.
"Are you decent?" Vincent asked as he didn't know what to do at that point.
"Yeah I am." She replied back.
"Good," Vincent said as he turned back and saw she was decent. "Besides that could have been a whole lot worse."
"How?" She asked not seeing how it could have been worse.
"Either Erza or your brother could've walked in on us doing that." Vincent told her as a hypothetical scenario. Mirajane couldn't help but agree to that statement. "I think I should be heading back to my apartment, should I take the main exit or just go out the window?" He asked as he wasn't sure how to leave after that.
"I can help lower you down the window as I don't think it's wise to have you go out the main exit." Mirajane said as this wasn't the first time one of the girls had to lower a guy down to have him exit.
"That's okay I think I'm good with my Wind Magic. So listen," Vincent began to say to Mira. "I had a really fun time on this date and was wondering…if you wanted to do hang out some more, minus the whole topless moment." Vincent asked her as he was kind of shy about asking her.
"I would love to hang out with you some more. And I promise no more topless moments." Mirajane told him as she opened the window for him. "So, see you tomorrow?"
"Sure thing, see you tomorrow." Vincent said before he was about to jump out the window. Mirajane stopped before he did as she kissed his cheek. She gave that to him as a sign of knowing she had a wonderful time.
He jumped out the window and flew down to the bottom of the hill where Fairy Hills was standing on. As he landed safely on the ground, he looked back at the dorm and said to himself, "Oh boy, that was a date I will definitely never forget. I can't wait to see her again. I wonder if I should tell my imouto about this, I will definitely leave out the topless part for obvious reasons. Oh Shiiit… I just realized that I forgot to pay for the noodles."
While Vincent was walking back to his apartment, a cloaked figure stood on the top of Kardia Cathedral looking over the town, focusing mostly on the Fairy Tail guild hall seeing some of the people leaving as it was closing time. "I've been surveying the target for a few days now," The cloaked figure said as he continued to stare at the guild hall, "It's almost time to strike." The cloaked figure then jumped off the Cathedral and vanished into the night, waiting for the right moment to strike.
