Erza, Cana, Wendy, Loke and the Strauss siblings were having a wonderful time at the beach. Wendy, Loke, Elfman, Mira and Lisanna were splashing each other - it was boys vs. girls, and of course, the girls were winning, while Erza was eating her favorite cake and Cana was drinking grape juice. Cana looked around.
" Hey, where are the others? " she asked Erza.
" Gray and Juvia were going to eat ice cream, Levy and Gajeel are looking for a new guitar, Levy told me he was a musician. Lucy is still sleeping, and Natsu... well Wendy told me he was sleeping too. " Erza said. Cana grinned.
" Sleepy heads. They're going to miss the fun. " She took a sip from her juice. Erza grinned.
" Well ,she did woke up pretty early. " Cana raised an eyebrow.
" What do you mean? "
" Well, it was pretty early when I woke up and saw that she wasn't in bed and I thought she was in the bathroom. While I was waiting, I heard her talking. When she opened the door, she was startled to see me and I saw she was holding her phone. " Erza explained.
" So she was talking to someone, but who? " Erza smirked and looked around.
She faced Cana. " A certain pink-haired boy. " Cana's eyes widened.
" Natsu?! " she was surprised and shocked. Erza nodded.
" But how? "
" I heard her say his name. But what shocked me is that she didn't tell me about him. " she said.
" So she lied to you? " When she nodded, Cana blinked.
" This isn't like her. She would tell us anything. Well, it's true that if it was someone she likes we would tease her. We're her best friends. I'm going to confront her. " Cana crossed her arms.
" I also heard she was meeting him today. I mean, they will hang out together. " Cana gasped.
" Do you think it is a date? " Erza shook her head.
" No idea. But it sounded like Lucy really likes Natsu. "
" Or maybe she looooves Natsu. " Cana smirked, rolling her tongue. Erza laughed.
" Love at first sight. " she signed, thinking about how she fell in love with Jellal. Suddenly, her phone rang. She answered it.
" Hello? " Cana watched as Erza's eyes widened and a deep blush appeared on her cheeks. She smirked, thinking it was Jellal calling her. " Hey, how are you? " Pause. " Everything's fine here. Just hanging out at the beach with my friends. " Pause. " How's Hargeon? " Pause. " That's great! So, where are you going on vacation? " Pause. " Great. I hope you have a wonderful time then. I miss you. " Pause. " Bye. " she hung up. She had a big smile on her face and signed dreamily.
" What's up? " Cana asked.
" It was Jellal. He took a break from his work and is going to Grand Cayman for a week. " Cana blinked.
" That's pretty far. " Erza nodded.
" I know. "
" I was hoping he would come here. " Cana hoped. Erza looked at her.
" Why would he? He would have told me about it. " Cana gave her a look.
" Erza, you're madly in love with him. You were dating for like two years but you had to break up because of his work in Hargeon. I mean, it's stupid. You might meet again and be happy in each other's arms. " Cana scolwed. " And you know what they say, no matter where you are, no matter how far we are from each other, they'll always be a place for you in my heart. " Cana smiled warmly and Erza smiled back.
" You're right, but if he did come, than things would be awkward between us. "
" Don't you want to be together again? " Erza looked down and slowly nodded.
" Then, if you see him again, run to him and hug him tightly, saying how much you missed him and want to be together again. " Cana grinned. Erza shook her head and laughed. She hugged Cana.
" Thanks. " Cana hugged back.
" That's what friends are for. " They pulled back and suddenly Cana's eyes widened in shock and... fear? What was she scared about?
Cana was looking over her shoulder, her eyes couldn't look away from the person who was taking off his shirt. Erza looked behind and narrowed her eyebrows.
" It's him. " she muttered. Erza looked at her.
" Who? " Cana looked at her worridly.
" It's Laxus. "
Lucy was sleeping peacefully, having a wonderful dream yet again. But then, someone rudely woke her up by knocking, more like banging on her door. She covered her head with her pillow, trying to avoid the noise. A few minutes later, it stopped. Lucy signed in relief and continued to sleep. She growled loudly when her phone started ringing. She quickly grabbed it and answered it.
" Hello? " she muttered.
" Morning sleepyhead! " Lucy's eyes widened, now wide awake and stood up upon hearing the same male cheerful voice.
" Natsu? " she asked shocked.
" Do we have to play the guessing game again? Of course it's me, you dummy! " he laughed while Lucy's face became red from anger.
" Oh yeah?! You're the dumb one waking me up at 8 in the morning! " she yelled.
" Uh, Luce? It's 12:30pm. " Her eyes widened and looked at the clock. And it said 12:30pm.
" What?! How did I overslept?! Why didn't the others woke me up?! " she panicked and noticed her friends were gone. " They left without me! "
" Geez, Luce, stop yelling! You're hurting my ear! " he whined. Lucy scolwed at him.
" It's your fault you woke me up at five in the morning! "
" Alright, alright, sorry! So, you remember today, right? " Now Lucy was confused.
" Remember what? " That's when it hit her. " Oh yeah! We're supposed to hang out today! Sorry about it, I'll get ready and you be here in 15 minutes. " she was about to hang up.
" Actually, I'm at your door. "
Lucy blinked. " Huh? " She heard someone banging on the door.
" Open up. " he said. Lucy walked to the door and opened it, revealing Natsu with a goofy smile on his face. He hung up and hugged her tightly, making her blush.
" Hiya Luce! Took you long enough! " He entered the room and sat on her bed. Lucy blinked.
" Natsu, were you the one banging on the door? "
" Yup. " he said cheerfullly. She hit him with a pillow.
" Is that any way to wake a person while they're sleeping? " she yelled. He shielded his head with his hands.
" I'm sorry! I went to the beach first but I didn't see you there. I asked Erza where you are and she told me you were still sleeping! Please don't hurt me! " he cried. Lucy signed and rubbed her forehead.
" Alright, I forgive you. But please don't bang on the door next time or we'll get kicked out. " she said. Natsu gave her one of his adorable smiles that made her blush again.
" No problem, Luce! " she smiled and told him to wait here. She took some clothes and went inside the bathroom. She brushed her teeth, washed her face, put on her clothes and brushed her hair before leaving the bathroom. She saw him watching TV.
" Ready? " Natsu looked up and his eyes widened and a deep blush appeared on his cheeks. She was wearing a yellow sundress that reached a little above her knees with a brown belt and yellow and blue sandals. Her hair was in two low pigtails. She was beautiful.
" Is everything alright? " Natsu coughed and smiled.
" Yeah. Um, you look great b the way. " Lucy smiled at him and blushed.
" Thanks, you too. " Natsu was wearing a black shirt, white pants and black sandals. He was also wearing his scaly scarf. He grinned.
" Thanks. " He took her hand. " Let's go. "
She blushed hard and giggled. " Yeah, let's go. " And together, they left the room.
