You know what could have happened? We could have been civill adults, we could have said no thank you and move on with our lives. We could have a normal dinner party with just music and food. We could have a lot less 'in need of hospital' accidents if we just had left early, like smart people but were we smart people? Well, base on the scenery that Lucy saw, I guess not.
It was only the 5th person's turn and the whole place already looks like it got raided by monkeys, wild drunk monkeys. It was spin the bottle type of truth or dare and so far it looks like it was rigged to have each past enemies against each other. Warren had spin the bottle and it landed on Mest, which he chose dare, since he wasn't a 'pussy like him'. Although it looks like Warren had got back at him from all these years. He had dare Mest to strip naked and run around the neighbourhood. You'd think that the teachers would stop us from destroying any reputation that Fairy High had but nope, apparently they were too drunk to care less.
Let's just say Mest had became a Meme sensation in the next minute. However Warren never got to celebrate long though because when Mest came back fully dressed, the bottle landed back to him but Warren being Warren and not taking the risk, picked truth, in which Mest asked him, "'Was it true that you peed in your pants back in 10th grade on the bus but didn't tell anyone until you felt something crawl in your pants, so you freaked out, stood up and pulled your pants down to let everyone see your wet crotch?"
"You said you wouldn't tell! And only you saw it because you were my partner and we were sitting at the back.!" yelled Warren face beat red as everyone in the hall laughed.
"I did? Must have forgotten." Mest grinned
"I gave you a thousand bucks to kept quiet!"
"Oh, must have slip my mind…..so sorry."
As they were bickering at the corner, Mira decided to move on so she spun the bottle herself and it landed on Erza.
"Dare" Erza smiled at Mira.
"Hm…..there's so many ways to be wicked…..what ever shall I do?" said Mira as she put a finger under her chin and tap lightly to look like she was thinking of something. She then slowly formed a grin and then she pointed towards the school's janitor closet.
"Go into the closet blindfolded, strip and put on whatever you touch in 5 minutes." As we saw Erza's face go pale but yet still determined. She had took the ribbon that Mira had given her and she led her to the open closet. Once the closet was close, she turned and faced us with a huge smile and walked closer to Jellal.
"What are you doing…?" he questioned as she tugged his arm to pull her nearer to the closet.
"As I said before, we are playing for fulfilling our High School dreams and I'm helping Erza fulfilling hers." she grinned once last time at her victim, opened the door and shoved him in before he could react. Mira had immediately shut the door with key in hand.
Everyone was silent as we now know the true fear of the game. "So…..Erza liked Jellal back then?" questioned Wendy
"Only I noticed that she looked differently towards him, you guys didn't know because they never talked, and I never done anything between those two then because I was waiting for his crush on Lucy to end."
A few more seconds had passed before they heard a loud scream from the closet followed by Jellal yelling to calm down.
"Sounds like Erza's blindfold slipped." Mira giggled as they all proceeded the game leaving the two in the closet for the next hour.
Gajeel had spin then and it landed on Natsu, "Well….let's go with truth."
"Feeling scared?" laughed Gajeel
"After seeing what Mira did, I rather not take my chances." Natsu replied back, knowing full well that he used to have a small fan club, which consists of people in the room so he rather not be forced to be in a situation, which could turn out horribly awkward.
Gajeel shrugged, "Whatever. Let's see….Oh, tell me what business you were talking about when you said you had to take care of some business here."
"Oh that, I'm here to take my fiance back with me." Natsu simply said as if it was nothing out of the ordinary, while everyone's eyes was upon him, wide and shock.
A second had passed.
Two seconds had passed.
Three seconds had passed.
"YOUR WHAT?!" everyone in the room yelled, causing the silence to break and all the boys just rush up to him.
"Since when did you get engaged?!" Gray asked, being his best friend and all, how could he had not known?
"Do we know her?" yelled Elfman, interested in the sudden twist of events because Natsu back then was somewhat of an anti-social, so who would have thought he would date someone.
"Is she hot?" asked Loke as other random questions came yelling in.
While Natsu was bombarded by the guys, the girls were beside them all shock from the news. They always thought Natsu would be single until much later when he finally decided to settle down, who knew it was this soon?
"Levy did you know about this?" Cana asked, somehow out of her drunken state when she came out of shock from the news.
"I didn't keep track of anyone that went out of the country and I was already busy taking care of Gajeel and keeping an eye out on Lucy to make sure she was safe." Levy replied back.
"This can't be happening, how can this minor information disrupt my whole plan." whined Mira.
"Plan?" the rest of the girls said.
"I was going to make Natsu and Lucy closer with this event, if the bottle landed on one of them and I was the one spinning. I always thought they would look good together, being childhood buddies and all, also they just suit each other so well!" Mira complained with her arms crossed and whining like a child as the girls comforted her.
Meanwhile the ever so quiet Lucy just looked at the scene and sighed, this was why she avoided relationships with people. In fact the times when she did date back in High School, her friends had disapprove of them when she mentioned their names to them and asked them what they thought about him, knowing that once she said she was dating him, they would change their opinions, which Lucy didn't want.
Besides, her group back then, Levy, Laki, Lisanna, Wendy, Juvia and Erza had said that the boys in their school were no good, well except Juvia. So she didn't really expected any of her relationships to last long, be it friends or dates. So Lucy at that time just dated for the sake of experiencing it, despite not holding any true feelings towards the other. She did end up learning something through, she found out that it really wasn't good to play with the other person's feelings but thankfully it was only High School, so people usually just make its memories there be bygones.
Lucy sighed as she came forward to Mira and said, "It's fine Mira, you're plan wouldn't have worked out anyway. I'm too awkward to ever get a lasting love interest. Besides, it was good that Natsu had revealed he had a fiancé now than later, if you ever did manage to somehow make my feelings bloom in just that scene alone."
Mira wiped her crocodile tears away, "I guess you're right." She sighed and turned to Natsu, which was still being cornered by questions, "Although, I would really like to know who had taken Natsu's interest."
Lucy and the girls agreed as well.
"So Natsu! Do you have a picture of her? A name could do as well." Levy said as she made her way in front, being tiny did have its perks after all.
"Guys please, it wasn't part of the game." Natsu chuckled nervously as his eyes dart around the room, looking for some kind of help, and that's when he spotted Lucy.
"Oh look at the time, I have to go now. You should ask Lucy, since we are 'childhood buddies' I'm sure she can answer for you." Natsu said and quickly dashed out of the building.
"What?" Lucy said when she heard what Natsu said, was he kidding her? They haven't been talking since graduation and that was years ago! But before she knew it the group had already surrounded her with questions.
"NATSU!"
The questions had only gone on by another 10 minutes until they realised that she knew nothing. After that the party kind of died down and everyone had started to leave to in the next half and hour. Everyone forgetting about the two individuals stuck in the closet until next morning, where the school janitor had found two graduates together cuddling in towels by the corner.
Lucy had started to head home around 12.30am, being one of the last to leave because she had arrived the latest. She had forgotten to bring her coat due to the rush of getting here, so now she had to deal with the shivering cold wind outside the building as she made her way through the parking lot. If it weren't for the eerie silence and darkness, Lucy would have maybe roam around the building to refresh some memories but she wouldn't now, not at this time.
While walking in her gown with her annoying heels clicking the ground every so often and her hands around her arms, shivering from the cold, Lucy had suddenly felt a warm fuzzy cloth drop onto her shoulders. She had turned around and saw the runway pinkette that made her deal with his problems.
"Natsu? What are you doing here? Didn't you leave an hour ago?" Lucy asked as Natsu had gently smiled down at her, he still had his party clothes on so he hadn't gone home and came back. If this was the Lucy 10 years ago, she would have fallen even deeper in love with Natsu there and then but the Lucy now wasn't so keen in relationships and having any emotions of 'love'.
"I was waiting for you." he had said as he lead her towards his car.
"I have a car, Natsu. Thank you but it's fine." Lucy said but Natsu had never let go of his arm that was around her waist, which she just noticed that was inside of his coat.
"Don't worry about the car, I'll have someone drive it back to your place tomorrow, well I guess later today."
"What?"
"I'm having you back with me to the hotel, Lucy. Unless you don't mind me staying at your place, I don't mind either actually." Natsu had casually said with his casual smile that showed his pearly teeth.
For the second time that night Lucy had never been more confused more than ever, "What?"
Erm, what am I doing...where is story going. Wtf is my brain on.
