Chapter 3: Part 2
Makarov's P.O.V
" LUCY!...and...LAXUS!" my teary face was soon replaced by utter astonishment at the two people standing before me. Lucy was wearing a bright orange sleeveless top that only reached up to her bellybutton. It really hugged her curves nicely, she was also wearing dirty white shorts revealing a lot of faded scars on her legs but you could barely see them and well Laxus... he was still the same as ever but this time his sound pod was missing. I have never seen him without his soundpod...hmm...why though?! A large gash poking out of Lucy's top was was soon the focus of my attention, it was properly stitched up and it looked quite old but that didn't stop me from assuming that Laxus was the one who gave it to her. Anger rose within me until I could no longer control it, " LAXUS! what have you done to Lucy!" I shouted enraged hoping that none of the Fairy Tail members heard my sudden outburst... thankfully they didn't. I saw Laxus and Lucy look at each other confusion found on their faces until both the said mages noticed the poorly concealed gash poking out of Lucy's top.
" It's not what you think Gramps!" Laxus defended himself holding his hands in front of him showing innocence.
" Yeah master! I got this from the mages I was supposed to capture on the job that I took!"
Lucy added trying to convince me that Laxus was innocent.
I smiled sheepishly, guess I should have just asked them about it instead of blaming Laxus... I laughed awkwardly, " sorry about that I guess I should have just let you explain yourselves" I scratched the back of my head. I heard Lucy laugh who was soon smacked on the head by Laxus.
" OW! what was that for?!" Lucy rubbed her sore head.
" thaw wasn't funny! if you had just covered it up properly I wouldn't have been in this mess!" Laxus lectured her
" Meanie!you could have just told me instead of hitting me and besides I didn't see you complaining before! " Lucy kept repeatedly hitting Laxus on his arm while Laxus just burst out laughing...wait...LAUGHING! the only time I've ever seen Laxus laugh was before he got the lightning dragon lacrima implanted in him! Is this Lucy's doing?! I coughed gaining the attention of the two.
"I hate to break this lovely moment between the two of you but do you want me to call Erza, Gray and Mira up or not?!" I asked teasingly. Lucy stopped her blows immediately which also silenced the laughing Laxus. I took that as a yes then proceeded to walk outside the room. "Gray, Mira and Erza come to my office now!" I shouted, the trio ascended up the staircase and into my room.
Gray's P.O.V
Lucy... LUCY'S HERE!...with... LAXUS?! EHHHHHHH?!
Erza's P.O.V
I can't believe it! Lucy's here! Right in front of my eyes!...with...LAXUS!
Mira's P.O.V
Laxus...with Lucy... MY LOVE SIGNALS ARE GOING HAYWIRE! Could this be...TRUE LOVE?! KYAAAAAAA! Natsu you have competition! Instead of getting worried by Laxus's presence with Lucy like my fellow guild mates did I simply smiled while imagining cute blonde little babies surrounding the odd couple. I would've thought that Lucy would've ended up with Natsu or Gray in the end oh well Fate has it's way of playing tricks! I can't wait to start match-making again! I haven't done that in 3 weeks! For me that's a torturous punishment! Let's get this match-making brain started! I grinned mischievously at my forming plan which went unnoticed by the people in the room.
Lucy's P.O.V
I sighed, I have a lot of explaining to do. Suddenly I felt a lot of weight on my right shoulder and saw Laxus urging me to get a move on with things. I took a sharp intake of breath then started spilling the beans. "Ok so before you guys point fingers at who gave me these...scars... Laxus here saved my life, if he hadn't defeated those mages I was supposed to capture for the job I took then I would have died. Also I will be travelling with Laxus for now until I decide to visit you guys or he ditches me in the middle of nowhere" I heard Laxus chuckle behind me his hot breath gave me pleasant shivers down my spine, " I will also be training with him which would explain why my clothes are so dirty" I shot Laxus a glare earning a laugh from him.
"It's not my fault that you believed that doing all those exercises would help you with thought projecting Blondie!" he burst out laughing and I blushed and looked away embarrassed at my stupidity. While Master, Erza, Gray and Mira was shocked at the scene unfolding in front of them.
"Anyway that's basically why Laxus is here with me!" I smiled cheerfully. Hoping my former guild mate s and master understood the situation.
" I understand Lucy but if this bastard tries any moves on you or even hurts a single strand of hair on you call me and I'll come and kill him!" Erza said her tone deadly serious which gave me and Laxus the creeps.
" Don't worry Erza! He won't make any moves on me! He might make flirty comments and maybe perverted ones here and then but that's just for fun... right Laxus?!" I gave him a deathly glare that made him shiver and shrink back down. "See Erza! He's afraid of me! He wouldn't do anything that would result in him being injured now would he?! Hehehe look at what all the training I've been doing for the past few weeks have done!" I mocked Laxus, smirking almost cockily. Wow he's been rubbing of on me!
"HEY! I'M NOT AFRAID OF YOU BLONDIE! IF ANYTHING YOU'RE THE ONE AFRAID OF ME!" he shouted angrily at me, " Besides... I know you're weakness" he taunted his smile revealing his devilishly large teeth.
" Which is...?!" I questioned the situation getting interesting, he responded by pouncing on me and tickling me on the sides. NO! NO not tickling! How did he find out?!
" L-Laxus p-please s-stop! I-It's n-not f-funny" I said in between laughs. Soon the tickling died down which resulted me sitting on his lap. While the Master, Erza and Gray looked at both of us shocked their souls floating away from their mouths and Mira...well she's smiling like she was a blind woman who had just seen light for the first time in her life.
"my my it seems like my love signals are going through the roof with you two!" Mira smiled slyly. I suddenly turned bright red and so did Laxus.
"M-Mira! We're not in love! Honest!" I shouted embarrassed
"Sure...whatever helps you sleep at night Lucy." I saw Mira smirking her match-making habits re-surfacing. I gulped nervously knowing that Mira had set up a plan, knowing me and my clumsiness of stepping into one of her traps I quickly devised an excuse to leave.
"Just make sure you invite me your wedding ok Lucy!" she winked at me and both me and Laxus turned as red as Erza's hair.
"M-Mira! What makes you say that?!" Erza stuttered her face as flushed as ours.
"Seriously haven't you noticed that they've been flirting with each other the past couple minutes?! Is Fairy T ail this dense about love?!" Mira asked unbelievably. I saw Erza think for a moment then her face brightened up as if she found a surprising realization...which she probably had.
" Now that I think about it you have a point Mira!"Erza agreed clicking her right-finger.
" Erza!" Gray argued against her...bad choice Gray. Erza gave Gray a don't-go-against-me glare which made Gray recoil in terror at the beast in front of him.
"Come on Mira! Like I would ever flirt or even MARRY this pervert!" I reasoned with her, my voice seemed desperate.
" HEY! Like I would marry you either Blondie! Why would I want to spend the rest of my life with an annoying brat like you!" his words stabbed my heart, with each stab it became deeper but just like any other unexplained feeling I had I just ignored them.
"Perverted Bastard!"
"Dumb Blonde!" (No offence to blondes! I didn't mean it! please don't kill me!) I was about to retort something back at him until Mira decided to join in our conversation.
" ahh young love!" she stated dreamily.
"STAY OUT OF THIS!" both of us shouted at the poor barmaid simultaneously. Both of us continued our verbal war both ignoring a Mira who was currently in a delirious state dreaming of...well...something.
Mira's P.O.V
Blonde blue-eyed babies, blonde blue-eyed babies, blonde blue-eyed babies. KYAAAA! MY LOVE SIGNALS POINT TO TRUE LOVE! KYAAAA! I imagined Lucy and Laxus dating which lead to marriage which then led to a honeymoon which finally escalated to a blonde blue-eyed family! KYAAA! I can already see it! don't worry babies Aunty Mirajane is coming to save you! I started thinking up a plan to make the "premonition" come true.
Lucy's P.O.V
Both me and Laxus still continued our verbal fight and didn't seemed to show any signs of giving up from either sides when suddenly Mira screamed something which made both of us freeze and made our blood turn ice-cold.
" BLOND BLUE-EYED BABIES!" The love obsessed barmaid screamed at the top of her lungs unexpectedly which made Erza, Gray and Master faint. It was a shock to see that none of the Fairy Tail mages ventured up to master's room to see what caused Mira's high-pitched love related scream.
"MIRA!" I yelled embarrassed at her...unusual statement. That seemed to make her break free of her delirious state and back into reality. She looked at us and smiled innocently...almost too innocently, I knew she had finally figured out her plan by then and made an excuse to leave. "Well as much as we'd like to stay and chat for a bit longer we have some training to get back to at Crocus." I was so focussed on getting away to notice that I just blurted out me and Laxus's location until it was too late. " oops." I said innocently
"BAKA! do you want them coming after you and taking you back?!" Laxus roared at me. I mentally cursed myself at my clumsiness.
"I'm sorry! Please don't come after me!" I begged them while crying my eyes out
" Don't worry Lucy it was your decision in the first place we wouldn't want to drag you back here and make you join us again without your free will. It's better seeing you happy than seeing you sad and miserable here." Erza reassured me her voice seeming forced. While Mira and the rest nodding understanding the truth behind Erza's words. " Oh wait Lucy! before you go! I just wanted to tell you Lissana was possessed by a restless demon and before the demon escaped she said something about Lissana ruining her chances of killing...you." I stood there shocked at the information my brain processed. Someone wants to kill me...but why?! What did I do to them?! " Anyway do you know who this demon could be by any chance?! She also said something about Acnologia's Dragon slayer... at first we thought that she was talking about you but we were sure that you couldn't be Acnologia's Dragon slayer since you're a celestial spirit mage." Erza explained her eyes looked desperate for information about the unknown demon.
"Sorry I don't know any demons at all but I'll keep a look out! Besides Laxus will protect me as well!Right Laxus?!" I smiled angelically, he just smiled and nodded. His smile was becoming seen more often as well as his laugh too, everyone just smiled at our ever-growing friendship. "Well got to go guys! Bye! see you next time!" I smiled cheerfully.
" Oh wait Lucy before you go!" I looked at Mira confused.
" yeah...?!" I asked cautiously hoping that this wasn't one of her plans.
"hehehe give Laxus a kiss!" she yelled enthusiastically. My jaw dropped to the floor at her demand and shook my head vigorously indicating a no. Mira got angry and transformed into her...SATAN SOUL! "Come on Lucy you have to! It's tradition that when two people are underneath a mistletoe they share a kiss!" Mira encouraged me while she got dangerously close to both of us, I tensed up when she was in front of us her devilish features more terrifying.
"B-but M-Mira there's not even a mistletoe above us!" I looked at the ceiling and found a mistletoe dangling above me and Laxus. I gulped and gave in not wanting too feel the wrath of an angry Mira. I turned to Laxus who was beet red and took a deep breath a blush igniting my cheeks. " fine you win Mira! but only on the cheeks!" I closed my eyes (bad move -.-) and leaned in closer. I was about to kiss Laxus on the cheeks until suddenly.
Laxus's P.O.V
As she leaned in closer I felt my breath quicken and my heart rate start to speed up. Why am I feeling like this?! It's only a kiss on the cheek! She was about to kiss me on the cheek until I heard Mira's voice.
"Laxus!" I looked over to Mira just when Lucy was about to kiss my cheek resulting in her kissing me on the lips. I closed my eyes and gave into the moment. I wanted to so badly deepen the kiss but that would only confirm that I like her to my former guild mates. So instead I just tried fighting with the temptation to do so.
Just wait till your all alone together then make your move!
NOO! she might be embarrassed and start avoiding you! Make your move now!
While my two halves were fighting Gray interrupted me and Lucy's kiss.
" Get off of her Lightning Freak!" Gray yelled at me making Lucy break our little kiss.
Lucy's P.O.V
I'm kissing Laxus and he's not resisting! what should I do?! I want to just let my worries fade away and wrap my arms around his neck but they're watching...hmmm...i'll just wait till we're alone till I confess to him,!
I heard Gray threaten Laxus so I just ended the kiss right then and there much to my utter disappointment. But I didn't show my disappointment though I did blush, my cheeks as red as scarlet. Just before Mira or anyone for that matter could utter a single word Laxus and I disappeared already at our limit.
Gray's P.O.V
" MIRA!" Me and Erza shouted at the she-devil in front of us, she just looked at us innocently and ran outside the door with us following her.
Normal P.O.V
What anyone didn't know was at the darkest corner of the room lurked the murder-obsessed demon, her demonic features revealing a dark and twisted grin. Her eyes shone bright-red showing her killing intent and her hatred for Lucy.
" Just wait for me there...Lucy"
