LUCY'S MOMENT (P.O.V. is too mainstream)
"I feel like he avenged me." I heard Gray say. I opened my mouth to say the same thing but no sound came out.
"You okay, Luce?" I heard, "You look like one of Happy's fishes with your mouth open like that." Natsu said with a confused look. I felt a tick mark on my forehead and angrily sent Natsu to the skies with a punch.
I sighed and felt mental fatigue because of my crazy thoughts earlier. I announced that I was going to the infirmary and they all nodded.
I pushed the wooden door and was greeted by Evergreen sleeping on Elfman's chest. I smiled at the sweet sight but since my head screamed for rest, I turned away. I settled on the vacant bed beside them and closed my eyes, wishing for a sweet romance like theirs. Perhaps with someone like... like...
'Laxus?''
My eyes shot open. I rose and scanned the room for any intruders. Seeing no one new, I sighed and thought it was all in my head.
'Which it is, by the way.'
I jumped in surprise and realized the weird voice really did come from my head.
My eyes narrowed. 'Who are you?' I asked.
'No one important. Anyway, admit it. He was your first choice.'
I felt my cheeks heat up and I shook my head in attempt to cool it down. 'No, he was not.' I defended.
'Oh yes, he was.'
I scowled. 'He was not my first choice in anything you suggest. Now, get away from my mind. I don't even know why I am responding to whatever or whoever you are.' I finished and laid back down. I closed my eyes again and imagined things that would help me sleep.
I feel like he avenged me.
My eyes shot open... again. It seems like nobody wants me to rest. I groaned and sat up.
"Gray, w-" I stopped as I realized he wasn't here and I realized that it came from my head... again.
'What the-"
I feel like he avenged me.
I heard it again and I felt a slight pang in my chest.
I feel like he avenged me.
My chest felt tighter and I patted it to try to loosen it up.
That's right. I wasn't the only one who was injured by Raven Tail. Gray and Wendy were victims too. So I wasn't the only one he avenged-if he really did avenge any of us.
I feel like a million bricks fell on me.
I hugged my knees close to my chest and rested my head there. "Baka Lucy." I murmured. "What are you getting depressed for? You were never really close to the guy... you don't even know him...-"
"Your underwear is in full view, you know."
I yelped and sat straight. My eyes widened at the man before me. Just moments ago he was in my mind and now, he materialized right in front of me?! Eh?
Blink.
Still there.
Blink.
Nothing new.
Blink.
Same pose.
Rub eyes.
Air.
I sighed in relief. So it really was my ima-
"You look very stupid doing whatever you're doing by the way."
My head whipped to my right so hard I thought my neck would break. But, nevertheless, he was there sitting on the bed beside me. He was placing ice on his wrist which had a dark red mark.
"L-Laxus! How-?" He cocked an eyebrow which looked like it was telling me I was stupid. I stopped myself and rolled my eyes internally.
But all of a sudden, I felt very embarassed and awkward around him. I suddenly couldn't stand looking at him-or what he was doing- without feeling the blood rush to my cheeks. I turned away and stared at the suddenly interesting bedsheet.
Just what is happening to me?
NORMAL MOMENT
"Um.." Lucy started. "Congratulations. On winning against all of Raven Tail." She didn't even look at him.
Laxus cocked his eyebrow again. The woman in front of him acted just like earlier. He wasn't irritated or annoyed anymore. Just confused.
'Women wil always be confusing.' He thought.
"You aren't taking advantage of my dragon-like hearing, are you?" he said.
"Eh?"
"Speak louder. I can't concentrate on listening to you since I'm concentrating on a closer matter here." He gestured toward his injury and she recognized it immediately.
"Oh. That's from Flare's hair, isn't it." She got off the bed and walked toward Porlyusica's personal medicine cabinet. "Ice won't work on that. You should use this." She took out a red glass vial and walked toward him.
He didn't say anything and just watched as she spread the magic ointment on the burn. They both felt the awkward in the air. The difference was that the female blonde knew why while the male blonde had no clue.
After wrapping it with gauze, she stood and shook off invisible dirt off her skirt. "Done." She said.
He examined her work and also stood up. He looked at her and saw her looking expectantly at him, probably waiting for a 'thank you.' He smirked. She wasn't getting it.
It was childish, he knew, but he wanted to make them even. Though only he would think and know that.
He was amused by her weirdness. (And maybe his weirdness, too.)
She was surprised by his ungratefulness.
He walked toward the door.
She stayed in the same spot.
He was going to leave...
She was going to sit down...
"You should consider wearing longer skirts, Ms. Srawberry Panty."
He laughed out loud.
She blushed in embarassment.
"H-HENTAI!"
Okay, I just had no idea how to end this. So I must have sort of dragged it. :/
P.S. im not sure where Flare really attacked Laxus so lets leave it like that.
Anyway, I want revieeeews! I see people following but I like reading comments. •﹏•
