"I just don't see what the big problem is."
"The problem is that this—this unknown person is texting you! What if he's some creeper, what are you going to do about it?" Levy shouted as she pointed at Lucy's phone. Lucy just sighed, thinking what in the world Levy thought when she got a text from—whom? Levy wouldn't even let her see the number nor see the text the person sent. All she knew was that while she was in her dorm, Levy came screaming about some unknown person was texting her and she should call the police.
"Levy-Chan, I think you're over-exaggerating."
"Me? Over-exaggerating? Ha! I am not; I'm just worried about my best-friend's safety."
"Right, like how you think calling the police will solve everything."
"Yes, they will, because they work for the government." Lucy held back a snort. "So, Miss Mcgarden, am I allowed to see my phone now?" Lucy held her hand out in front of the blunette who just crossed her arms and shook her head. "Do whatever you like but if he says anything inappropriate, I'm calling the police!"
And with that, the young woman stomped into her own room and slammed her door closed.
Lucy sighed and went on over where Levy had taken her phone. She unlocked her phone and looked at the number. Seeing that it wasn't in her contact, Lucy tried thinking who she gave her number off to in the couple of weeks she's been out. She read the text but all it said was, "Hello, beautiful."
Lucy decided to call the person.
After the third ring, Lucy thought the person wasn't going to answer but when she was about to hang up, a hello from the other line stopped her. She put the phone to her ear, curious. Where had she heard that voice before?
"Hello?"
"Well, if it isn't Miss Hard-to-get."
"How the hell did you get my number?"
"You left it at the table after our date."
"Whoa there, buddy. That was not a date and I left my number for emergencies because a lost puppy-dog was looking for one." Lucy felt like she had her own personal stalker. Jesus, it was just a day ago and she finally thought she was getting some peace.
Lucy heard somebody chuckle from the other line and she sighed, realizing that she was still on the phone with her crazy idiotic 'friend'. "What's up?"
"I'm writing an important essay about how I shouldn't skip class," Lucy rolled her eyes as her professor scolded her this morning. Fucking Natsu and his stupid little mind. "Oh? Did your professor catch little miss perfect?"
"Don't call me that, what do you want from me?"
"Hey, you're the one who called me." Lucy now thought about it and she did call him. She just wanted to know who the hell made her little bookworm friend freak about and now she has been talking to him for more than five minutes. "Oh, uhm, well, I wanted to know who had my number! Making sure some creeper isn't stalking me."
"I can be your personal stalker."
"Oh god—you sound just like a creeper."
"I am not a creeper, I am a man with feelings and you just have hurt them. Its okay feelings, daddy's here." Lucy laughed into the phone. She was wrong about this guy, he wasn't just a flirt.
Lucy sat down on the couch, playing with the ends of her hair. "What're wearing now, hot stuff?"
"Clothes, you know, what people wear?" Lucy just see him roll his eyes. "I mean what kind."
"Fabric. I think its wool, I don't know."
"The fuck does that mean?"
"It's a type of clothes; you asked me what I was wearing." She heard him scoff from the other line. A ghost of a smile lingered on her lips. "I'm wearing my boxers."
"Good for you, mister. Let's just hope you don't catch a cold!"
"I never catch a cold; those damn germs can't win against mine!" Lucy giggled a bit, leaning back against the couch; she looked at the television which was turned on. "Coming to Fairy Tail tonight?" He asked making Lucy look at the clock to see it was almost six in the afternoon. She thought about it but she didn't felt like getting dressed and going out to meet douchebags.
"Nah, I don't want to see your ugly face."
She would be lying if she said that was true. She thought Natsu was one of the handsomest men she had ever seen. Minus his personality, she would totally date him.
"My face is not ugly!"
"I don't want to see my personal stalker."
"Why not? I want to see you, hold you, kiss you—"
"—And take you to bed and fuck your brains out then leave you the next morning!" Lucy finished for him, sighing as she knew it was true. Lucy heard somebody snort from the other side of the phone. "Dude—"
"I said don't call me dude!"
"Lucy—whatever, I would never do that to you."
"But you don't it to plenty of other girls." She stated as the other line went silent and she knew it was true.
She sighed and rolled her eyes, wondering why in the hell is she still talking to some douche that followed her around everywhere yesterday and acting like a total ass. "Alright, that might be true but still—I wouldn't do that to somebody like you. I'll probably fuck you more than twice."
"Goodbye, asshole." Lucy hissed into the phone as she hung up on him.
God, she hated men like that.
Lucy put her phone down on the coffee table that was right in front of her and she lied down on the couch, sighing.
Why did men like that even exist?
Lucy wanted her college and high school year being the best school years she received but all because of her dumbass boyfriend, she ruined everything for her. And she did not want to be played like that again. "Lu-Chan, did you find out who had your number?"
"Yes, it was one of my friend so don't worry." Lucy waved it off as Levy dramatically gasped. "You have friends?"
"Oh shut up, Levy-Chan!"
~X~
Natsu stared at his phone in his hands, happiness bubbling up inside his chest. He was shocked to find that she called him but he was even more excited to know she talked to him for more than ten minutes. He could just fly right now.
"What is with that stupid grin on your face?" Natsu looked at his friend, glaring at the male. "Shut up,"
"Who were you talking to on the phone? We were supposed to studying."
"We are, and it was just some girl I met at Fairy Tail couple of days ago."
Gajeel rolled his as his tapped his pencil on his math book. "Some whore you're sleeping around with? You see, Levy is the only girl I ever found attractive and is the only girl I would want unlike you."
"Well, it's not my problem girl's find me hot and you . . . scary."
"Me? Scary? Is that why I'm dating Levy Mcgarden?"
"Levy really isn't something to boast about. Unlike Lucy, holymotherofgod her body is just—!" Natsu stopped talking as he daydreamed about Lucy's naked body on top of his. Oh how badly he wanted to run his hands all over her delicious body. "Hey, Levy has a lot of things to boast about. Unlike you, she has an education of a grown woman."
"And a body of a seven-year-old." Natsu added making Gajeel sneer at him. "All you think about is sex, sex, sex. You fucking sex addict, soon, you're going to get all old and wrinkly and nobody will want your wrinkly ass." Natsu rolled his eyes and grabbed his history book, flipping to some random page. "So, Christopher Columbus set foot on America in 2000?"
"First of all, we're on math. Second of all, that guy would be long gone before the 2000 and you fucking dumbshit, it's 2012 right now!"
Lucy shivered just a bit as she stood outside Magnolia's library. She had plans with one of her girl-friends and she was late. Erza Scarlet was never late and she was already sevem minutes late and it was worrying her. She just hopes it isn't something bad.
While standing in the cold, she was surprised when she heard somebody call out towards her.
She turned and looked up at long stairway up to the library as it was somebody she didn't expect to see.
The look of dread crossed her features and she rolled her eyes. "What do you what?" Lucy snapped causing Natsu to grin and step down the stairs, a book or two sticking out of his backpack while another was in his large hands. "You actually read?" Lucy asked as he noticed the books and how he just exited the library.
He stood on the second to last step, looking three times as bigger than Lucy. "Yeah, I read. Why? Didn't think a hot guy like me will read?" He kept hoping down the stairs as Lucy scoffed. "Honestly, I didn't."
"Well I did so no need to worry about me failing College," Natsu gave her a wink and she rolled her eyes, hugging herself a bit tighter. Where was Erza?
"Are you waiting for somebody?"
"Certainly not you so you can go bother somebody else."
"Why are you so cold towards me? I thought we were actually becoming friends." Lucy noticed the pout on his face and she smiled just a bit. "Go away; I'm waiting for a friend."
"I think your friend ditched you, what time was she supposed to be here?"
"About ten minutes ago, but Erza never cancels on a date."
"You're lesbian?"
Lucy shot Natsu a dirty look as held back from giving him a slap in the face. How did he think of that?
"What? You said date and you didn't deny she was a girl so, you're lesbian?"
"I'm straight and if you don't walk away in the next five seconds I swear to god I'll make you regret being born as a male."
Natsu raised his hands in reason again, trying hard not to piss the blonde girl he loved so much. "I'll wait here with you, just in case some creep comes and tries to pick you up."
"I believe there is one right now."
"Where?"
"There!" Lucy jabbed her pointer finger at Natsu's chest making him pout. "Oh, Luce—"
"The fuck is Luce—"
"—you're so harsh!" Natsu dramatically sobbed as he stole small glances at the blonde. She just ignored him, hugging herself a bit closer. Natsu noticed and he reached out, wrapping an arm around her shoulders. She was startled as she was shoved into this man's chest without any warning.
"Is somebody cold?"
"You'll be the one cold if you don't let me go."
Natsu ignored her and hugged her even tighter, liking the feeling of her body against his. He could get used to this. He felt Lucy struggling in his arms and he panicked. His balls were so going to be in lots of pain. "Don't struggle, I know you like this too."
"Fuck you." Lucy hissed as she kicked with her might, her knee coming in contact with Natsu's gut. He immediately let her go and Lucy gave him another kick with her heel, hissing at the male. "Don't touch me."
"Jesus—have you ever thought of joining the soccer team?"
"Go away! You're so annoying!"
"Thank you, but most girls scream my name, not you're annoying."
Lucy glared as she face-palmed herself, thinking why she needed to be the one to come in contact with this idiot. Where in the hell name is Erza? "Come on, baby. Why not come home with me, your friend is not coming."
"She is coming and I will never in my whole life will go home with you."
"Why not, sweetheart?"
"Because I don't like you, I don't want to be one of your girls, and go away for the final time!" She yelled but Natsu only purred, almost like a wild cat. "Feisty."
Lucy could just scream her head off.
"Lucy!" The couple soon heard a female voice in the distance. Lucy turned around to see her scarlet haired friend running towards them. A smile immediately stretched on her face and Natsu wondered why she won't smile like that to him.
"Erza!" Lucy shouted as she ran towards her friend, embracing her into a tight hug. "Lucy, I am so sorry I was late, I bumped into this guy—goodness, he was really something!"
Lucy could see that Erza had feelings for this guy and she just smiled.
Erza never really fancied men. She always thought they were perverted pigs who needed to go die and so, whenever Erza talked about some guy that caught her attention; it makes her happy to know her friend is also so happy.
"Oho, so this is your friend? She isn't half-bad." Natsu came towards the two college students, his eyes racking up and down Erza's body. Erza who now noticed the male, raised her brow. "Who's this? Your boyfriend, Lucy?" She asked making Lucy blush different shades of red as she shook her head. "Hell no! This guy is some creeper that keeps following me, Erza!"
"He's doing what?"
Natsu swore if looks could kill, he would have died right there.
Erza stomped her way over to him, grabbing him from the collar, she brought him close. Natsu gulped and paled, looking at the female that looked like she was going to kill him. "Leave Lucy alone." She hissed making him furiously shake his head up and down. "A – Aye sir!"
"Good, because if I hear another complaint coming from that blonde about you, I will personally come and rip your balls off and attach them back to your body with a stapler, got that?"
"Y—y—yes ma'am!"
"Good, now scram."
Natsu didn't want to leave but he backed away real fast, running towards Lucy and hiding behind her back. "Luce, you're so mean!"
Erza was about to snap but Lucy laughed, putting her hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry Erza, I can handle this." Lucy did enjoy the horrified face Natsu pulled out earlier. It made her think Natsu wasn't that good with woman.
"Natsu, go home."
"But I want to spend time with you." He whined making Lucy frown. "Well, I have a date with Erza."
"Can I come with, please?"
Lucy shook her head and spun Natsu around, gently shoving him away. "Thanks for the visit, really, but I really need you to go and never come back." She said as Natsu turned around and faced her again, grinning slightly as he pushed him back a bit. "Come on, babe. I don't see you around a lot; we don't have any classes together, what's your dorm number?"
"It's one eight fuck-yourself I told you, I have no interest in you."
"But I do."
"I don't care; I don't want anything that involves you." She said harshly making Natsu frown as he faked-cried, feeling hurt once more. "Oh baby please," He begged as Lucy swore she just heard the sexiest voice. Her cheeks flushed red and she blamed it for the cold. "
Go away, go home, go somewhere and bother somebody else but me."
"I will go home if you promise me one date. Just one." He stuck a finger out but Lucy shook her head. "Hell no."
"Please, or else, I'm not going to leave."
"I'll get Erza on your ass."
Natsu frowned and gave her a puppy-dog eyes making Lucy groan and bite on her lip nervously. One date wasn't going to be that bad, was it? Lucy looked back at Erza and she saw that the scarlet woman was happily texting someone. She looked so happy and maybe if she had a boyfriend too, she would look like that too... maybe one date wouldn't be so bad.
Holding a finger up to his face she started to speak, "One date. Just one." She said as a grin appeared on his face. "If I don't like it, promise me you'll never ever bother me again."
"Boy scout honor."
"Good, pick me up at five tomorrow at my dorm. My dorm number is three sixteen." And with that Lucy gave his shoulder a pat and turned away, walking towards the scarlet-woman who smiled brightly. The two walked away and Natsu stared at the blonde. Turning, she gave him a sweet smile and waved goodbye, the ladies disappearing into a nearby store.
Once they were gone, Natsu jumped up and yelped in happiness.
He was the happiest he can be.
"Date? With who?" Gray shot his friend a look as he watched his friend rolling around on his bed like a little boy who just gotten something he always wanted. Natsu, who just came and barged in his dorm screaming about how happy he was about a date, sighed happily. "Lucy. She is so hot," Natsu sighed as he just thought of the blonde woman.
Gray watched as his friend started to space out, his grin never leaving his face. "You look like a creep,"
"Holy shit, that's what she calls me."
"A creep? I think she was trying to kick you out, not ask you out."
"No, no, no, it's just because she thinks I act like one, I think she likes me."
Gray snorted and flipped to the next page of his book, trying hard to study for his upcoming chemistry exam but couldn't concentrate because of a certain somebody boasting about some girl that obviously didn't like him. "I have a date with her, tomorrow! At five!"
"Who this Lucy chick anyways?"
"I met her at Fairy Tail,"
"Oh, scored on another woman? Thought you were looking for that blonde chick you told me about."
"No, it's the same one I was telling you about couple days ago. I found her! And she attends Magnolia University—god you should see her. She's like a fucking supermodel; just imagine how great she'll be in bed!" Natsu started to go on and on about Lucy, his eyes widening at everything new. Gray only scoffed and started to go through his phone after he received as text from one of his girls. "I bet you twenty bucks she'll not show up."
"Dude, she told me to pick her up at her dorm. Three sixteen, I think."
"Bullshit. I think she gave you a fake dorm number to some ugly chick."
Natsu shook his head as he pulled his phone out. "I even have her number." He said, presenting the lit screen as Gray cocked an eyebrow at his direction, surprised that the pink-haired male was so excited about some girl he met at the club. He normally didn't act like this.
"So, are you going to go?"
"Fuck yes! I would be an idiot not to go!"
"Do you have a picture of her?"
"Do you have a yearbook?"
Gray was up and rummaging through his treasure chest, searching for the yearbook that he bought last year. Since this year's weren't on sale yet, Gray had to look for the yearbook of 2011. Once he found the Gray hard-covered book he blew on the front and dust blew everywhere.
Natsu coughed as he waved his hand around to get rid of the dust. "Damn, it's like a fossil." He commented as he snatched the book from his hands, flipping through the pages like a mad-man.
Gray stood behind him, leaning over his chest as Natsu started to name girl's he went out with and slept with, Gray following soon after. They laughed about bad dates and bad fuckers, soon forgetting why they even opened this book.
"Urgh, this girl was the worst!"
"Really? I fucked her at least twice."
"Damn, all she talked about was her feelings and she got so annoying after the first ten minutes of the date." Gray groaned as Natsu laughed while he flipped the page, stopping as his eyes found the girl he was looking for. "Her! This is Lucy!" He said making Gray lean closer, squinting his eyes as he stared at the picture of the blonde.
His eyes widened as the picture finally processed in his mind. "What? That's Lucy Heartfillia!"
"Yeah, that's her!"
"What the—you have to be shitting with me! The Lucy Heartfillia?" Gray asked as if he was talking about some sort of celebrity.
"Yeah, why so surprised?" Natsu looked at Gray who snatched the book from his hands. Bringing the book closer to his face, Gray just laughed like a mad-man. "Damn it, Natsu! You got to her before me!"
"What? You've been trying to pick her up?"
"For almost three months now! God, that girl is hard and she is fucking sexy."
Natsu nodded, agreeing with his male friend. "Jesus, how'd you even talk to her? Whenever I try to talk to her, all she does she flick me off."
Natsu started laughing as he heard what just came out of his friend's mouth. Falling back on the couch, he howled with laughter, holding his gut while at it. "Ha! She likes me better!" He said as Gray shook his head in denial. "No, you must have threatened her or something."
"I followed her around the whole campus for the whole day."
"She is right, you are a creeper."
"Hell no, I just wanted this girl so badly. Unlike you, I actually tired. It cost me thirty bucks but eh, I still got to buy her lunch."
Gray stared at him in disbelief. "You even got her to eat lunch with you? I really didn't think you had it in your, flame-head." Natsu smirked at him, feeling so good about himself. He also got a date with her tomorrow. She said something about not messing it up or else he can't bother her so he'll make it the best a girl he took out ever got. "I'm coming with you tomorrow."
"What? No fucking way!"
"Yes fucking way. I need to see with my own eyes that the Lucy Heartfillia is going out on a date with you."
"And what's wrong with me?"
"Everything. I promise I'll just go and see then leave right away." Natsu eyed his friend for a moment before nodding, grinning at the man. "Got it."
"And you own me twenty bucks if she doesn't show up." Natsu nodded, praying to god that it'll turn out great and he won't be able to owe that ice-freak twenty bucks. "Alright, out of my dorm."
"Wha—I'm lonely." The rosy-haired male said as he frowned and pouted. "I honestly don't give two shits, out. I'm studying for an upcoming exam and I can't let your stupidity ruin my chances of passing."
Natsu glared at Gray, finding what he said insulting. "Out!" Gray shouted as he grabbed Natsu and pushed him out of his dorm, throwing his jackets at him.
"Son of a—!" Gray slammed the door in Natsu's face and he cursed to himself silently. Walking down the hallway, he went to go find his dorm.
The grin returned to his face as he remembered Lucy and he jumped for glee.
"Watch out, Heartfillia! I'll be making it the best date you ever been to!" Natsu shouted out to nobody in particular, entering his dorm to slam it shut.
He was so happy.
