Chapter 3
2 weeks after the beach
"I'm back-ahh,owwwww!" Natsu screamed as he writhed on the floor.
"Don't just walk in yelling. It's impolite, now apologize!" Erza scolded, hand still poised in a chopping position, almost daring Natsu to disobey her and face its wrath.
"Okay, okay! Jeeze, I'm sorry. Good enough for you?" The pinkette inquired rudely.
"What are you sorry for and what should you have done instead?!" The female mage irritably asked butting her head against Natsu's. If they had been able to read the guilds mind right now they would've found that they were all wondering the same thing, 'When did Erza switch bodies with Gray?'(Well at least most of the guild was thinking this. The exception was Happy who was drooling and imagining fish swimming around him.)
"You're pushing it Erza," Natsu lowly growled. Suddenly both parties burst into laughter.
"Did you see their faces?! They were priceless!"
"Hahaha, Natsu you were so right! Making a commotion when entering the guild is fun! I usually enter the guild so quietly that no one notices!" Erza commented oblivious to the sound of numerous drops of sweat falling to the floor. 'Erza never comes in quietly; she slams the door and practically stomps everywhere she walks. The only reason we don't look at her when she enters the guild is because the last time we did that she practically destroyed us yelling the whole time,"What are you looking at?!" Poor Nab was never the same.' The guild was reminiscing when they heard Erza continue with her speech.
"However," at this point Erza's demonic aura was gathering and she slowly turned to a paling Natsu," It was a onetime deal remember? If I remember correctly you promised that if we caused a ruckus entering the guild you would do whatever I wanted for a week; yes?" Natsu nodded weakly, once again cursing his stupidity and short-sightedness. "Well, I demand that you be my personal butler for the next week!" Erza exclaims triumphantly either not noticing or ignoring the amount of blood leaving our dear fire-breather's now clammy face. Oblivious to the rosette's terror she continues, "This is perfect timing; with the Fantasia Parade coming up, you can do all the heavy lifting!" Before anyone could make a lewd comment about him being her personal butler and having to fulfill her every wish, Erza spun on her heel and practically pranced to the bar where she happily ordered her usual meal consisting of a slice of strawberry cheesecake.
Taking this as a way of saying the conversation was over the rest of the guild returned to their duties. Pausing before taking a bite of her cake Erza calls Natsu over and says, "Your duty will start tomorrow. Be outside of Fairy Hills at 7:00 A.M sharp. If you are late your punishment will be severe." As she communicated the last piece of information a dark aura began to surround her and her eyes turned into to two huge sparkles. Mildly disturbed and thoroughly terrified Natsu started to walk away; each step a little longer and faster than the last. Soon after he escaped the guild the resident red-headed re-equip mage pushed her stool away from the bar and left the guild hall with the excuse of fatigue.
Unbeknownst to her and the rest of the guild her plate still held the most of her cheesecake. Before anyone could notice the plate was practically full it was snatched away by the one and only barmaid; Mirajane Strauss. Inspecting the cake to see if it was poisoned the barmaid could only come up with one plausible solution as to why Erza would ever leave a piece of cake untouched; her mind must have been occupied by other more important things. However the thing that intrigued the match-maker the most was the fact that the cake looked like it had only been poked at after Natsu came and talked to Erza. 'Hmmm…the only reason Erza would leave her cake untouched is because she had something more important on her mind. Don't tell me that… things are gonna be interesting now…' With this last thought the barmaid smiled, turning back to her all important job of polishing the already shining glasses.
Outside the sun was high in the sky its intense glare herding everyone inside. Well almost everyone. There relaxing in the shade of the great trees overlooking the river sat two people, one with pink hair and the other with bright red hair. If it had to be described it would have to be…scarlet.
"Why did you have to say that I had to be your butler?" Natsu whined ruffling his pink hair in frustration. "Now the guys are gonna tease me!"
"It was the only good excuse I could come up with that would require you to be with me all day," Erza replied, "Besides don't you want to spend all day with me? Nobody would bother us… we could be all alone…"
When she first responded to Natsu she had been sitting a good foot away from him but now she was sexily pouting at him from her position on his lap. It was all Natsu could do to stop his nose from exploding right then and there. Knowing the effect it had on him the redhead pushed just a bit further knowing it would give her victory. Leaning forward slowly, she lightly nibbled the shell of his ear and whispered, "Who knows… it could be really fun…" Trailing off suggestively she was all but tackled onto her back by a very lustful looking Natsu. Before she could protest her lips were captured by his fiery ones and she quickly lost the battle for dominance. Lost in the heat of the moment she didn't register that he had pulled away and had leaned towards her ear. What she did register however, were the words he sent softly floating by her ear, "How does it feel?"
Only then did she realize that the tables had been turned and that he had seduced her. Due to Erza's lack of breath from the passionate lip-lock she could only muster the breathe to lift her head up and say, "Touché," With that she dropped her and resumed the task of forcing air into her lungs. Once she felt she was ready she got up left Natsu relaxing and proceeded to walk to Fairy Hills with one thought coursing through her mind, 'This week is gonna be interesting,"
How was that? I'm sorry for the long wait but I am finally done with my project and my writers block. Thanks for all the reviews and support, it really helped. I fixed the whole paragraph situation and I tried to separate dialogue from different characters. I know it's just fluff but the action is coming don't worry. Well thanks! Au Revoir!
