Chapter 2 : The Chase
After a while when Gray kicked Natsu out of the guild to catch up to Lucy, a shadow appeared before the front doors of the guild. It was Lisanna, Elfman and Evergreen. Everyone in the guild was in a state of shock just after what happened and this is going to be more worse than ever if Lisanna is going to step in to the circle.
It was obvious that both Lucy and Lisanna have the same feelings towards Natsu. But there's one thing: Lucy only loves Natsu. While Lisanna always flirts around every other handsome guy that pass by here and there. So it was obvious that Lucy deserves Natsu more. And everyone in the guild supports Natsu and Lucy to develop their feelings for each other more. Since Natsu has been showing signs that he likes her, they wanted to work it out by helping them get together as soon as possible so that Natsu won't end up in Lisanna's grasp. Even her brother and her sister, Elfman and Mirajane, doesn't want Natsu to end up with their little sister. Why? All of them in the guild share the same reason. Natsu is too good for Lisanna. It would be such a waste for a guy like him.
Natsu, on the other hand, of course, doesn't realize much about this yet because his mind is full of idiocy. That is the part that Lucy hates the most about him. Everyone in the guild knows how she feels about him but the person itself doesn't even realize it even though a lot of people knows about it. But Lucy doesn't mind it that much since that's what makes him more cute every time.
Lisanna, now walking through the hallway, looked around for any signs of a pink-haired guy. When she finally reached the bar, she immediately asked her sister, Mirajane.
"Mira-nee, have you seen Natsu around?" Lisanna asked in a cute 'imouto' tone.
Mira, ignoring her sister in front of her pretending that she didn't hear what her sister just said and turned around with a wine bottle in her left hand and a towel on the right and said,
"Oh. Lisanna! Welcome back. Elfman and Evergreen too." Mira replied with a bright smile on her face.
"Yeah. We're back nee-san." Elfman replied.
"We're back." Evergreen also replied
Then after the greetings, Lisanna spoke out again. "Uhh… Mira-nee, as I was asking whe-" she was cut off by someone at the nearest table. It was Laxus.
"Oi, Mira! Give us more booze here." Laxus Shouted at the waitress.
"Ok. Wait just a moment!" Mira replied happily as if she was just saved from hell.
Mira then got some beer for Laxus and the others at his table and walked out of the bar to serve the booze herself. While having the feeling of relief that Laxus noticed about her fidgety feeling earlier even though it's not really very noticeable since it's Mirajane.
"Thank you, Laxus." She whispered and smiled at him as she served the booze.
"Yeah. Anytime." Laxus replied in a cool tone with a killer smile while Freed and Bixslow snickered and blushed at their backs. Because just the other day, they noticed that Laxus was looking at Mirajane wherever she goes and that's when it started.
Mira, taking her opportunity to escape walked in a fast pace to go through the bar doors and put back the tray to where it belonged and got out of the bar as soon as she can and she let Kinana take over her work and walked out of the guild so that she can go home and she wouldn't have to take Lisanna's questions. Everyone in the guild doesn't want to tell Lisanna where Natsu went and whenever she asked, all they say is, "No. We haven't seen him since this morning."
Lisanna, now sick of the replies of her guild mates walked out to find Natsu on her own. But they doubt that she would find him since Natsu probably boarded the train already since Happy is not there, he have to suffer all the consequences that's going to be thrown at him.
Now that Lucy and Cana are already in their respective seats in the train, Cana began to bring up what just happened.
"You know Natsu, Lucy! So it's fine right? Since he is an idiot and all, right? So cheer up! It's not good if you're going on this kind of mission with a face like that!" Cana stated cheerfully so that it can also cheer her up.
"Yeah. I know. And I somehow went too far earlier…. I feel somehow, guilty." Lucy replied with guilt definitely in the tone of her voice. She never wanted to yell at Natsu like that.
"Natsu might never want to see my face because of this and I'm such an idiot for not thinking about it." She added.
"You really do love him don't you?" Cana replied with a hint of jealousy because she's never been in love in her whole life and now she wants to fall in love too.
"Yeah. I guess so. Haha." Lucy replied with a forced smile on her face.
"Hehehe. It's in the part of being in love you know. I'm sure, Natsu doesn't mind it at all. It's Natsu we're talking about after all. He only gets angry whenever someone picks up a fight with one of our members." Cana replied with a comforting smile that could cheer up anyone who would look at it.
"I hope so…" she replied. And this time, her smile wasn't fake anymore. Now, she just need to wait at the right moment to apologize to him. She wanted to let some days pass first though. Because if ever she's going to see Lisanna's face right now, it might turn into a punching bag. When suddenly,
"Ohhhh! Speaking of the devil!" Cana stated and pointed out of the window of their seats and Lucy turned her head to look at the direction where Cana is pointing. Lucy was so surprised when Natsu hurriedly hopped into the train just in time before the door closes.
Natsu was panting hard with sweat rolling all over his body. Seeing him made her fidgety and she knows that she is blushing so damn hard because of just seeing him catch up to them. Lucy felt like she was in heaven.
Now that Natsu already caught his breath, he got his way through the hallways of the train, passing seat by seat, not even caring about those people staring at him and just walked until he reached their seat.
Lucy was shocked. Natsu is in front of her, not having the slightest hint of anger on his face. He was looking straight at her eyes until he kneeled in front of her and all the passengers are shocked. Because they might be witnessing a marriage proposal of one of the most famous and strongest mage. They all stared at them until Lucy couldn't take it anymore and spoke up.
"Oi. Natsu! What are you doing?! Stand up alrea-" she was cut off by the warm sensation that grabbed her right hand. It was Natsu getting Lucy's right hand.
W-wh-what?! Don't tell me he's going to p-p-p-propose?! Lucy screamed at her mind and she felt her face flush.
"Ohhh! Escalating to the next level already huh?! Hehehe!" Cana stated in a teasing tone. And by that, Lucy's face became much more redder. Lucy couldn't speak because of the situation she's in right now. And Cana couldn't be more excited.
"Oi, Natsu! Say your thing already! Everyone's waiting." Cana told the pink-haired guy still kneeling in front of Lucy while still holding her hand. He finally decided to speak.
"Lucy….." Natsu said her name in the sweetest tone he can make with his voice.
"Wh-wh-what..?" Lucy replied with her voice stuttering because of her heart racing so damn fast and all those wedding scenarios popping out of her mind and how many kids will they have in the near future.
Natsu looked up to meet her flushed face and looked straight at her eye. When she saw his face, it also has a little blush on his cheeks. Then he spoke up,
"Lucy…. Wi-will you forgive me?"
Lucy, shocked at what she just heard, turned to stone. She was so stupid to think that Natsu, who is the biggest idiot, would propose to her. Everyone that was watching them turned away because of disappointment. Cana, who was so excited about it, turned to stone the same time as Lucy did.
After a few seconds of thinking, Lucy finally got back to her senses.
"Ha? Fo-forgive you? For what? Hahaha. Ahaha. Ha. I'm such an idiot. Please spare me…. Ahaha. Ha." Lucy said with tears in her eyes. She's crying because of her stupidity.
"Ha? I mean, I'm sorry for not telling you about that time when I got to go on a mission with Lisanna. I know you're still mad at me. I'm sorry." Natsu said and turned his eyes away from hers because of the uneasiness between them.
"Ah. Is that the reason why you're here?" Lucy asked while she wiped away her tears and a little blush appeared on her face.
"Yeah. 'cause I just can't stand it. It feels like there's a big wall separating the two of us. And I don't like it." Natsu replied with a blush on his face. Lucy blushed harder making her little blush earlier a big one and it became more redder when she saw his blushing face that was so damn cute and she couldn't resist it.
"F-fine then. I'll forgive you on this one. But if ever there's a next one, I'm going to make sure that you'll end up in hell." Lucy stated in a sadistic tone but, of course, Natsu didn't mind that. Instead, he stood up and hugged Lucy tightly and he said,
"Thank you, Lucy. I promise that there won't be a next time." Natsu said sweetly at her ears. Lucy shook her head and said,
"No. Don't promise me something like that. Just that, be sure that you won't do it again okay?" Lucy replied back in a sweeter tone than his and Natsu's face became more redder. And as for Cana, she blushed at the sight of the two of them being all lovey-dovey to each other. And just at the same time, the train started moving and…..
"Unghh… ug… *slurp* arghhh…." Natsu almost vomited at Lucy's back when Lucy quickly turned him over to the open seat at her side and let him lay his head on her lap. The train continues on until they reached their destination and quickly finished the job so that they can go back home already.
