The month-long mission is located three days from Magnolia by boat. Sitting in their cabin, Lucy glares, arms crossed, at Laxus as Plue shakes next to her eating sweets that Erza gave him. Opposite her, Laxus sits with his arms crossed and his eyes shut, his headphones playing music into his neck as for some reason he does not want to put them on properly as usual. The cabin resembles a large motel room with a couple of sofas, a mini-fridge, an suite equipped with a shower and behind a red curtain is a large bed. "Are you going to keep staring or are you going to talk?" Laxus mutters, not bothering to open his eyes.
"Well it would help getting some indication about this month long mission I am going on." Lucy lightly strokes Plue's head as he agrees with her. Moving faster than Lucy notices, Laxus places the flier on her lap before settling back into his previous position. "We have to spend a month in a cottage in the middle of the woods?"
Laxus sighs, opening one eye. "It is meant to be a couples vacation house but bad things have been happening recently and it's our job to act as a couple and sort it out." He watches as the blonde blushes slightly before looking out of the cabins window. "What sort of bad things?" Laxus shrugs as his eyes travel over the mage. "Beats me." Lucy huffs before walking around their cabin, waiting for the boat to finally leave port.
A soft smile tugs at the lightning mages lips at the blondes irritation, his eyes following her as she bends over to the mini-fridge, picking up a soda. He lazily travels his eyes around her long legs. Suppressing the urge to groan, Laxus reluctantly closes his eyes in an attempt to distract himself from thinking about the shapely celestial mage.
Walking back to her place on the sofa, Lucy attempts not to look at Laxus. He should have told me about the mission instead of being that brooding, smug, body of smoking muscles. Shocked at her own thoughts, Lucy can feel her face becoming hotter. Why do I keep having these strange feelings about Laxus of all people? I have only had a few conversations with him before and now I can't help the urge to jumps onto his lap and pull his face towards my own.
The boat jolts as it pulls away from port, causing Lucy to stumble forward. She loses her footing. The celestial mage closes her eyes to brace herself for the impacts of hitting the hard ground. A short pain reaches her knees as well as feeling warmth supporting her arms. Slowly opening her eyes, dark fabric meets her gaze.
"Now, now Blondie. If you really wanted to put your face between my legs, all you had to do is ask." Laxus' smug voice whispers as he leans forward so that his lips brush against Lucy's ear. Full face going bright red, Lucy sits frozen as her eyes stare forward. Her tongue licks her dry lips, causing Laxus to laugh. Looking up at him with wide eyes, both seem to hold their breath as their eyes darken.
With her senses coming back to her, Lucy quickly moves away from Laxus and sits on the bed.
Breathing hard, Laxus runs a hand through his hair before putting his headphones on, hoping that the music will distract his urges. Strangely enough, he hasn't felt motion sick next… maybe it is the busty blonde who is helping? Damn it Laxus, quit getting soft. She's just some girl.
