Wedding Cake Plans
"Another early morning" I sighed as I hit my alarm clock off. I rushed to get ready, since I had to tell Mira all about Jellal...
I hopped into my car with energy I don't know I had, and drove over to the Fairy Tail Cafe. I got there and unlocked the door, I then automatically went into the backroom. I saw Mira working on a pot of coffee
"Hey Mira!" I greeted her
"Hey Erza! The usual?" She asked me
I nodded my head, once Mira got me my food, she sat down with me.
"So why are you so energetic this morning?" Mira questioned me with her eyebrow raised
I slightly blushed while saying "W-well I met this guy..."
"NANI! (A/N: Nani= what) ERZA GIVE ME ALL THE DETAILS NOW!" Mira demanded, her matchmaking side coming out.
I sighed and proceeded to tell her all about how he was the last customer and got the last red velvet cupcake, I described his face with great detail, not skipping a beat. I also told her how I met him again yesterday at Wendy's, and we talked and he gave me his business card, and then later that day he came into my bakery and asked for another red velvet cupcake.
By the end of my story, Mira was squealing like she just won a million dollars.
"THIS IS AMAZING HAS ERZA FINALLY FOUND A MAN OMG I NEED TO MEET HIM! AGHHH!" Mira ranted at me.
"Mira, I've only known him for 2 days, give it some time" I sighed
"Alright alright, but keep me updated on everything!" Mira demanded.
"Alright I will" I promised her.
I got up and threw away my napkin and put my cup in the sink. I waved goodbye to Mira and headed off to my bakery, I arrived at the door, and I was surprised to see that it was already unlocked. When I came inside, I noticed the kitchen light was on. I curiously walked over there, not making any sounds, and I peeked my head around the corner, where I saw Lucy hard at work. I sighed with relief, forgetting that I gave her and Mira the spare keys.
"Hey Lucy, glad to see you bright and early" I nodded towards her.
Lucy jumped, dropping the egg she was holding. I laughed, seeing how scared she looked. Lucy shot me a glare, however I wasn't bothered, seeing how my glares are the best.
"Don't do that Erza! You made me drop an egg!" Lucy huffed.
"Ok ok I won't do it anymore," I apologized, "so why are you here so early?" I asked
"Oh, Natsu was snoring really loud and I couldn't get back to sleep so I just decided to come in early and get to work." She replied
I smiled gratefully at her, then I got my apron on. We started getting to work, when I got a phone call, I went over to the bakery's phone.
"Hello, this is Scarlet's Treats! How may I help you?" I started off with.
"Ah hello! I would like to place an order for a wedding cake!" A young lady answered.
"Alright, would you like to come by the bakery so we can plan it?" I asked her
"That would be lovely! What time should I come?" The lady asked
"Any time is good for me! Just come over when you're ready." I responded to her
"Okay thanks, bye!" She ended the conversation.
I walked back over to my chair, and got out the samples for the wedding cake.
"Another wedding cake order?" Lucy asked me
I sighed and nodded.
"Okay, if you need help don't hesitate to ask, and don't forget, we are hanging out at Fairy Tail tonight!" She reminded me
I nodded my head and got back to work, I realized it was opening time, so I got all of my employees in their places, I wiped off my hands and turned the sign over so it read
"OPEN"
I smiled, then went back to the kitchen, another day at the bakery!
After some time, Milliana knocked on the backroom door, where I was setting up stuff for the wedding cake. Through the door, Milliana told me that my wedding cake client was here. I sighed then got up to open the door, I was greeted with a woman who looked to be in her young twenties. She had dark purple hair that reached her mid back, and peculiar red eyes. She smiled brightly at me.
"Good morning , I'm Ms. Milkovich, but you may call me Ultear!" She smiled at me
"Good morning Ultear! Let's get started on this wedding cake!" I said to her.
She nodded and followed me where I placed her in a chair, and went back to my chair.
"I'm sorry my fiancé isn't here! He had an unexpected business meeting." She apologized
"Don't worry about, now when is the wedding?" I asked while pulling out a calender.
"Well let's see, today is August 4th, so August 20th." She told me.
I nodded my head with a smile, 'that gives me a good amount of time.' I thought.
"Alright, so describe to me how you vision your cake"
"Well, it would be 3 layers, and be covered in white fondant with scarlet roses and brown vines" she replied."
"And flavors?" I asked her
"I know my husband loves red velvet, so how about red velvet for the bottom layer, chocolate for the middle and a small lemon velvet on the top?" She told me
"That sounds lovely! I will be sure to have your cake ready for your wedding date!" I promised her
"Thank you so much ! Have a nice day!" She smiled as she was leaving.
After that, the rest of my day went along without a hitch. I asked Meredy to close up the shop, since I had to go get ready for the hangout session my friends and I were having at Fairy Tail. I got home and went to change into some white jeans, and a black blouse, I let my scarlet hair out of its pony tail, and brushed it out, I did my makeup, and grabbed my purse and keys. I got into my car and headed off to Fairy Tail.
A/N: I'm sorry D: I feel like the chapters are getting shorter and shorter! I'll try to make them longer !
