The Cuties, the Playboy, and the Cold
Upon arriving at his Aunt's mansion, Natsu was feeling the most nervous. He kept on tugging onto his scarf. Loke on the other hand was trying to be calm and be cool despite what he was wearing. Suddenly, Natsu's phone rang,
"Hello?"
"Nephew! Oh Natsu, I think I will be a little late for our meeting today. I am very sorry, I had an emergency" said Aquarius on the phone.
"Really?" Natsu exclaimed in excitement.
"But your cousin will be there to company you until I get there"
"You mean—" before Natsu could finish what he was about to say, the doors from his left side came slamming.
"Natsu!" exclaimed a running young lady with pink hair that had two ribbons (I substituted the horns as ribbons)
Loke looked at her in slow-motion. He knew she was the girl he met at the grocery. He was love-struck! The girl greeted the two and smiled at Loke.
"You must be Natsu's girlfriend. I'm Aries by the way" she bowed.
"I am-" before Loke could answer her (in a very manly voice), Natsu punched him on the stomach.
"She doesn't talk much" concluded Natsu.
Aries led them to the garden but Loke pushed Natsu into the closet.
"Bastard! What the hell was that for?!" cursed Loke at the pink.
"You can't talk because you sound so manly! Deal with it!"
"Remember, I'm the one helping you out!"
Aries opened the closet and was caught off-guard by what she saw. You know what I mean. Well, kinda looks like what I mean.
"I'm sorry, I'll just—uhm.." she apologized.
"No! It's not what you think!" yelled Loke and was again punched by Natsu.
With all the commotion happening, they didn't realize that Gray has just arrived at the mansion.
"What are you doing here Gray?" asked Natsu.
"I'm here to tell you something" said Gray seriously.
Suddenly, a sound of a car stopping caught their attention. The high two-way door opened to reveal a very voluptuous woman in a sexy blue dress and a very hunky man in a very fine brown suit.
"Aunt Aquarius and Uncle Scorpio!" Natsu was in panic mode.
"Dearest Natsu. *zooms in WHERE'S YOUR GIRLFRIEND?!"
"She's uhm…here! This girl here!" said Natsu pointing to Loke.
Aquarius circled around Loke as if like a vulture—ready to eat your guts out.
"Well, she's very pretty. Let's enjoy some snacks on the garden then!" said Aquarius as she grabbed Scorpio's arm.
"Told ya it'll work" whispered Natsu to the annoyed Loke.
"Just don't talk" he added.
Gray stayed on the living area as he sat down on the sofa—thinking about what he was about to say.
"Hey Gray, can you tell my friend to just wait here for me if she comes?" asked Aries.
"Sure" said Gray as he threw his feet on the coffee table.
"What is your name dear?" asked Aquarius to Loke.
"She's Lina" replied Natsu.
"Oh I see, so what are your hobbies?" asked Aquarius as she puts the spoon down from stirring her tea.
"She loves to draw" replied Natsu again.
"LET HER ANSWER ME!" growled Aquarius.
"I'm sorry! She just doesn't like to talk because she tries to save her voice for singing" countered the scared Natsu.
"Singing? Wow! That is a good talent" she recovered quickly from the rage.
Aries arrived and sat down beside Loke. Loke on the other hand, stared at her from head-to-toe and stopped on the "you know". He blushed at the thought and giggled.
"Anything wrong?" asked Aries as she looked at him.
Loke shook his head and smiled at the ground.
"You know what, you're a pretty tall girl" stated Aquarius as she examines Loke.
"She's athletic" said Natsu.
Aries then stood up and whispered on her mother's ear.
"Lina, could you accompany my daughter for a little shopping spree? She likes your fashion" smiled Aquarius.
Loke bolted from his seat, bowed and accompanied Aries.
"Finally! Alone at last!" said Loke in his mind.
"Where you guys going?" asked Gray to the both of them.
"Shopping" replied Aries.
"Juvia is very sorry she is late!" apologized Juvia as she tries to catch her breath.
She looked up to see Gray behind Aries and Loke.
"Gray!" she exclaimed.
"Oh! The girl from the festival!" he stated.
"What was your name again?" he added.
Meanwhile,
"So Natsu, trying to trick me, huh?" said Aquarius as she finishes sipping the tea.
"Did you fell for it?" asked Natsu bashfully.
"Loke is a very weird-looking woman I gotta say" said his uncle, Scorpio.
"You know what Natsu, the girl that I wanted to meet was Lisanna" said Aquarius.
"But I knew you two were faking your relationship" she added.
"The girl that I want to meet is actually that blonde girl I saw with you on the internet" stated the woman.
Natsu then remembers Lucy in his mind.
As Aries, Loke, Gray and Juvia arrive at the shopping mall, Gray took Juvia apart from Aries.
"Gray-sama! But what about—" Juvia hesitated but she wanted to be with him.
"Just come on! I have something to ask you" he said without even looking at her.
He didn't realize that he was already holding her hand.
Aries and Loke were left alone. Aries looked up to Loke and said,
"Hi Loke!" she smiled.
"What?! You noticed?" he was so dumb-founded.
"Yeah, I recognize your eyes anywhere" she stated as she looked away shyly.
"Your real name is Leo but you like to use your stage name Loke" she added.
Loke realized that she was a fan.
"Uhm, can I change into something else?" he asked her permission to leave her for a while.
"Sure, I already brought these for you" she grabbed her back-pack and got out a swag-y set of clothes.
After he changed, he exited from the men's toilet. He adjusted his top which Aries found so cool—she blushed.
"Well, let's go" he said as he put his arm on her shoulder.
"By the way, thank you for saving me back there" he said.
"Un. It's always been my dream to—uhm. Go on a. On a date with you anyway. But I'm not saying this is a date or anything. It's just-" before she could finish was she was about to say, Loke kissed her on the cheek.
"Sure, whatever you say. It's still a date for me" he winked.
Juvia and Gray were at a Café. Juvia was feeling uneasy and her heart pounded so loudly.
"Hey girl-from-the-festival, I gotta ask you something" said Gray as he placed his two elbows on the table and placed one hand on top of the other.
"We met at my school" she said—annoyed.
-"We did? Well, never mind. Has Lucy come to school lately?"
-"No, I haven't actually seen her for a while"
-"Does she still have problems regarding her father?"
-"No. That was already taken care of. Maybe because, well, I don't think that could be the reason but"
-"But what?"
-"A lot of girls hate her and even send her hate mails for always being with Natsu" concluded Juvia.
-"Girls at school even try to start bad rumors about her" she added.
-"So that's the reason why she wanted to quit" he stated.
-"Lucy wants to quit? Quit working for Natsu?" she asked.
-"Yes, she told us just this afternoon shortly after Natsu went to his Aunt"
At another place, Lucy was just outside Clive Complex, waiting for Natsu to come back. The sky started to drizzle.
"The number you have dialed is currently—" she pushed the end button on the phone.
"I'm sorry Natsu, I guess you have to hear it from the others" she stated as she pushed open her umbrella and went home. She wiped away the tears from her eyes and tried to gain back a smile as not to catch any attention.
On Natsu's dressing table, she left a note that said,
"I'm going to quit Natsu. I'm sorry. Thank you by the way for everything"
