Chapter 5: Change of plan
As the day ended, students started to vacate the school and started to do their plans. Even our dear teens had plans on their own. Gray and Juvia had a date, Gajeel and Levy had some baseball game to watch, Erza and Jellal had some date as well. And for Natsu and Lucy, they had their own study date according to the pink haired teen.
Each of their friends had gone and went to their own dates which makes Natsu and Lucy be together while waiting for Natsu's ride. While waiting, Lucy was swinging her feet while wearing headphones in her ears. Never realizing that a certain pink haired teen was just staring at her.
Suddenly a blonde haired girl stood in front of the two but it seems the girl was only there for Natsu. "Natsu-kun do you have any plans because I was thinking maybe you want to hang out with me?" this caught the attention of Lucy and looked at the boy next to her, "Well I'd love too but I got to study to night so I have to say pass."
"But Natsu-kun, you can study tomorrow... You are a smart guy anyways...please" saying the last word, the blonde made a cutie cute face to Natsu which makes him chuckle a bit.
"Okay fine, just give me a minute to call my driver..." And with that the blonde girl nodded and leaped towars the gate to wait for him.
As soon as the girl left, Natsu looked to Lucy who just gave him a raised brow, "From what I know, you were the one who made this plan..."
"I know I'm sorry...but she got some point, I can study tomorrow."
"Didn't you know, I also had plans for myself but since you insisted last night about studying together I ignored it...then suddenly your going on a date?"
Lucy didn't wait for Natsu's respond anymore for she stood quickly and walked away from him. She heard him call out for her but she never looked backed and went home alone instead.
Natsu's POV
After going out with Michelle, the blonde girl who asked me out this afternoon, I decided to go home quickly. For some reason, I felt bad going out with her, I don't know if it is because I made Lucy disappointed or just because the date is boring. But i guess I made Lucy disappointed. So once I get to my room, I quickly called her.
THE NUMBER YOU HAVE CALLED IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE. PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE AFTER THE BEEP.
beep.
"Hey Luce, um... I just got home and I'm really sorry about this afternoon. I didn't mean to upset you. I was just...Look I'm really sorry, hope you'de call back once you hear ."
I tried to wait for her call back, but it never came. Time just came that Wendy called me for some dinner, "Hey Wendy, if Lucy call can you pass it to me?"
"But Lucy-nee just called about 5 minutes ago..."
"What?! why didn't you tell me?"
"How am I suppose to know? you didn't mention anything to me. Its time for dinner" Wendy then walks off leaving me just staring at the open door way. I then realized, its true, i didn't mention anything to her, so why should i get mad. From all the people I should be mad at is myself.
I didn't join dinner anymore with my family because until now, I am waiting for Lucy to call back in my phone. But my waiting was distracted once mom opened my door, "I thought Lucy would be coming over for the weekend to study with you"
"That was the plan...before I suddenly made my own date"
"Date? with who?" mom suddenly sits at the end of the bed while I turn myself in the chair to face her, "With some girl in school..."
"And Lucy was there when you suddenly changed then plan...am I right?"
"Y-yeah...am i awful?"
"What do you think?" when mom returns the question back to me, I always know the answer right away. And I end up silent so mom continues herself advising me, "I know you know the answer to your question, so I'll just tell you, make it up to her...After all she is your best friend. You know what to do."
Minutes of staring with my mom, she kisses my forehead and leaves me alone. I actually feel relieve when she does that but I don't tell that to my friends except Lucy. When finally I was alone, I tried to call Lucy's house but all they said Lucy didn't want to be disturbed, and you know me, what they don't like is what I do. I called Lucy countless times.
"WHAT?!"
"Finally you answered! haha!"
"I'm going to hung up if this is not impor-"
"Wait! um...I'm sorry?"
"Are you apologizing? or asking?"
"Can I say both?"
"What do you need? I'm studying..."
"Hey aren't we suppose to study together?"
There was a deep sigh as I waited for Lucy to talk back. But it took quite long before she answered, "Natsu, don't tell me about studying together cause you were the one who broke the plan..."
"I know thats why I wanted to make it up to you. I'm really sorry about that."
"You don't have to make it up to me... I just want you to keep your promise"
"And I'll do...always...For you"
There was a long pause before Lucy answered back to me, "If you want to make it up to me, make sure tomorrow morning you'll pick me up and you have chocolate and mint ice cream at your house...we're going to study together."
"I promise...I'll pick you up and two ice creams are ready at home."
"Good" then Lucy hungs up the phone.
Even if I didn't want our conversation to end I'm pretty sure Lucy is smiling like the way I'm smiling to myself. I then thought to myself, Tomorrow I'll make sure Lucy will never regret that she forgave me.
