day 6: fragrance*
.o.o.o.
Note: I dont know if this is fluff, I have written.
But guys thanks for the reads... I wasn't expecting the stats. And choco forest (throws myself in a virtual hug*) waaah...two last short chapters, uhmm so...
.o.o.o.
Soft breathing were heard in the four corners of the room.
Under the white sheets, their limbs intertwined like vines, they relished the warmth of each other.
Lucy was the first one to wake up, and as she try to remove herself from her boyfriend's iron grip, she could not help but to sigh in defeat.
"Stop pretending to be asleep." She said as she deadpan on the awful sleeping act Gray is doing.
Gray on the other hand, snake his arms on Lucy's slim waist and embraced her.
He softly kiss her knuckles, as she caresses his hair.
"Why are you grinning?"
"Nothing, so why did you decide to team up with me?"
"is it bad to try and team up with my boyfriend for this mission? "
"Nah, I'm just surprise. Most of the time its you, Natsu and Happy, but recently you've been teaming up with Erza."
"Are you jealous?" She asked and noticed that he is biting her shoulders.
"No." He grumbled as he kiss the new bite mark.
"Ouch that hurts, don't bite." Lucy pinches his arm and cuddled him tightly. Gray grumbles as he burried his face on her shoulder.
"You're mine."
"I know."
"You smell like sakura..."
"Huh?!"
"Yeah, sakura it is."
"Ah, you mean my perfume?"
"Yup, I like it."
"Really?"
"It calms me, also reminds of spring."
"Oh, is that so?"
"Yeah, dont know but reminds me of my childhood."
"I know."
"Know, what?"
"Ah, it's nothing." he didnt know why but ever since they got together, he felt Lucy knew something more about him.
He felt like Lucy is treating him carefully, as if he is as fragile as a glass.
"..."
"Ok, so If my perfume reminds you so much of spring, then You remind me so much of ... Winter."
"..."
"Your scent...is.. Like your magic. Its cool, fresh, minty, like you know peppermint... Hahaha.".
Both of them hope that this moment would last.
Gray stared at her sleeping form.
He didn't know what are her reasons on why she tagged her self in this mission with him.
Guilt and betrayal still bother his conscience, and he couldn't help but to wonder why she chose him.
Seeing this moment, he thought it is indeed pretty.
She's pretty.
She's so pretty that it hurts.
Cherry blossoms reminds him of her.
He stares at the sakura's in front of him. Nonetheless, a bittersweet smile is on his face as he held the book that's given to him.
"Oi! Old man why are yah, staring."
"Hmp, nothing.. What's you're name brat?"
"Fuyu, ugh stop staring old man."
Oh...
A vague memory somehow reminded him of someone.
He looks forward the road, As he relinquish the memory.
He know remembers.
"Fuyu... What a weird name Lucy gave to our son." There's a hint of amusement and familiarity from a memory that he now remember. He let's out a laugh and saw how his son reacted which is very similar when he was young.
He wouldn't say it out loud, he just never expected that his son would inherit some of his personality.
"Tsk... Its not weird old man. I was named after my mother's first friend, and I think it's awesome." His son scoffs and he grinned.
His son doesn't have any hatred lace on his words nor his act. Its just lace with disappointment yet there's still longing in it. He knew his son wanted to know why he left.
He is indeed a fool.
"Is that so."
"Before I forgot, yah got yourself a granddaughter, her name is Haru. She's eighth months old." He saw how his son brighten up when he begin to brag his daughter, he began to wonder if he is also like that if didn't left her.
Still he is shock that his son insists to rekindle their relationship.
Side by side, the father and son walks under the cherry blossom trees.
The scent of spring reminded him so much of her.
