"Natsu….." Lucy called out as Natsu groaned in response. Lucy huffed and threw her arms in frustration. When will this stupid motion sickness thing stop?
Natsu groaned again while Happy was busy chewing on a fish.
"Lucy, you know he gets this way whenever we go somewhere. You should get used to it by now." Happy said while putting the fish away in his tiny green bag.
Lucy pouted and looked out the carriage window. She sighed and was deep in thought "It's not just Natsu, I'm worried about….it's everything. Hope we can make it in time and that we can find her in one piece"
"Uh-oh Lucy's making that conceited face again…..which means she's thinking about herself and how beautiful she thinks she is when she looks out the window but in reality she actually looks like a sun fish" Happy said in a very mocking tone.
"Shut it cat!"
The wind was blowing softly, the sun had set and everything had become dark again. Sara stood by the window in Stings room where she had been staying for the past week. She was sitting on the edge of the bed, staring out absentmindedly chewing on her bottom lip. There was a knock on the door which snapped her out from her daydream.
"Come in" she rasped but it was loud enough to be heard through the door.
A few seconds later the door opened and Sting came into the room and stretched. His eyes were droopy from all the lack of sleep. Sara could tell even from a mile away that Sting misses his own bed. She smiled at him. Sting opened his mouth to say something but before a word came out he tripped and fell face down.
"Shit! Sting! You okay?" she asked running to his aid.
"Fuck!" Sting groaned and rubbed his eyes.
"Sting how long are you going to let me sleep on your bed and not sleep like an over sized baby on the couch?" she asked looking at the blonde who looked at her with a serious expression causing the tension in the room to increase.
"Forever" he replied with a cheeky grin. She was confused for a second but then she realized what he said, she shook her head and smiled at him. In the last week she had been treated as a part of the Sabertooth family. The first two days into her stay, she witnessed how much of a sincere guild master Sting was. He tried his best to be in touch with all the guild members, show them compassion and give them strength as a guild master. On the third day when Yukino and Rogue came back, she immediately took a liking to the silver haired celestial mage. They spent day the entire time together the next day. By the fifth day she and Rogue finally bonded over Frosch both gushing over how adorable he was. By the sixth day when Sting and Rogue were absent because they left for a job, she and Yukino went out shopping to get her fresh clothes, the two ladies spent gossiping over rumors brewing in the guild. The seventh day Sting and Rogue finally came back, Sting was flushed from a long road trip with rogue, which made her smirk and look at Sting. Sting's face changed fifty shade of crimson.
She had also received her father's will following their arrival. Her father left all his fortune in her name, sharing the properties with the people that have been with the Alkaev family for the last two generations. Those acres and acres of lonely land, that big house that she grew up in completely empty without her father seemed almost lifeless. She missed her house a lot but then she realized that there was no way it would be the same again. Would she ever be able to call that place her home again? Now, that the most important person in her life is gone. No way that things would be the same. She wouldn't run to her fathers' study and hug him after she was done training. She wouldn't be able to sit on the same table with him and laugh, they wouldn't be able to share a meal. Things had already changed. He wasn't here anymore. She sighed sadly and continued to sulk in a corner.
"Hey" Sting called her, while shaking her gently. She looked at him.
"What do you want Sting" she asked him, he was smirking and sort of red faced.
"So the guild has finally restored the bathrooms, Want to go for a good soak?" He asked with a smirk. Sara snorted a yes and pulled herself to her feet.
"I'll be taking some booze along with me before you blame me for anything let me warn you we're both going to be butt naked and alone" Sting said in a sing a song voice.
"Why are blushing Sting? Scared to be in a bath with me and that you can't hold your tongue while you're intoxicated?" she asked with a sweet smile. "If you think it's too much then we could ask Yukino and Rogue to come along with us."
"Scared? Me. Wow! That's new" Sting scoffed in response causing her to raise her eyebrows. "Fine! don't say I didn't warn you"
So he was going to confess, finally it was about time.
Sting had been going nuts over the last week because of her. Women never had been a big deal for him. Girls usually threw themselves towards him without any question or second thought, but this brown haired beauty took him by surprise. It's almost over a week now and in this short time, Sting was very much attracted to this girl. Something about her made him curious.
It was like she was testing him. Pushing him to his last limit, waiting for him to do something drastic. Sting was the first one she had opened herself to, which Sting considered a great achievement and since then Sting had discovered the kind of a person she actually was. She liked the color blue a lot, she liked animals a lot, she doesn't like her powers that much because her mood and thoughts reflect the outside weather, she likes booze and last but not the least she was comfortable in the buff. The last one wasn't directly mentioned to Sting in the list of things she liked, what gave her away was after her third day she slept naked on the bed while he slept on that dumb couch with a raging boner. She stripped in front of Sting as if it meant nothing or maybe because she was provoking him. Sting had been flirting and sending her signals the entire week but even when she's butt naked in a tub with him so close to her face, she could smile so easily and blow him off.
"Aaaaargh! Fuck it!" he cursed in defeat slamming his fists on the table. Sting sat on a chair in the guild's office frustrated with all that paperwork. All that paperwork might kill him. Paperwork? No more like his thought process.
"I think you should just ask her out" Rogue said as he looked up from the book he was reading and stared at his companion. He closed his book and gently placed it on the table. Sting looked at him with a knowing look.
"What good would that do? All she does is blow me off" Sting grumbled with a pout.
A smile was tugging at the edge of Rogue's lips. When it came down to someone like her, Sting really didn't have a chance. Usually the women from a wealthy noble family don't get to choose their husbands on their own will. Their father will choose from all the suitors that present themselves with their area of business qualifications and of course money. That's how trading went well. But since she was orphaned Sting wouldn't have to go through so much trouble but judging by a women of her caliber, he doubts Sting would even make it through the first date. She was raised by Stephen Alkaev. Alkaev industries has been in the trading business since the start. It's such a shame that a talented man like him had to pass away.
After Rogue had come back from his job with Sting. He took the liberty and went through all the business contents that Alkaev industries had. He did a good background check on him and nothing out of the ordinary except for one red flag, Sara Alkaev was not his biological daughter. This made things a little confusing but what interested Rogue the most was her visit to fairy tail.
"I'd say to take her out on a fancy date but she would not like all the fans that decide to ogle at you. Hmm well since you share a common interest of nudity and drinking. I'd say you could finally use the guilds bath" Rogue suggested with a smirk. Knowing Sting and how brash his actions were he would jump at this chance to bed her but what Sting wasn't aware of was Sara's thoughts towards Sting, it was comical to a great extent. It nearly took Rogue everything to not to laugh at his friends expense and the situation that was going to take place. Sting was going to be very disappointed tonight.
Sting's face broke into a huge grin. A hot soak date huh? Guess Rogue Cheney wasn't asexual after all.
Sting and Sara walked over to the guild, it was fifteen minutes away from Sting's house. The guild was empty, no one was there. As they arrived in the bath it was foaming with fragranced soap and the whole atmosphere was relaxing. Sting blushed and turned to see Sara, who was already taking her clothes off. Sting didn't waste any time either he took everything off. His mind was in chaos it kept switching between lust and caution.
The warm water comforted him and his exuberant emotions. Sting looked over at Sara and she was sitting in a corner where all the bubbles were. She sighed softly, as if she was really enjoying this more than she should have. She looked at Sting. Her cheeks were red, she was blushing. He smiled and moved closer to her.
They were both a few shots down before they could start talking. Sting and Sara started talking about the most random things in the world, they both were giggling and smiling. Sting finally settled his gaze on her. His breathing almost stopped as his eyes scanned over her exposed body. She was gorgeous. He started admiring her from head to toe. She sat there with a sweet smile, Sting was dazed. He kept staring at her toned legs, drinking up each of her curves, watching carefully as each of her movements caused her large breasts to bounce lightly. He watched her like a tiger stalking its prey. Every movement she made, every breath she took enticed him even more. His mind was racing, the entire place smelled like her. His eyes moved to her face. Her brown eyes lazily flickered to his face, a delighted smile was present across her lips.
"Ugh…Sting since there's no one else here would you please wash my back?" she asked Sting with a pleading look on her face. Sting was blushing hard. She handed him the shower gel bottle and a blue sponge. The sponge was really soft and it smelled like strawberries. She turned around and sat up on the bath side. Sting followed her as well.
Sting made sure to gel the sponge nicely and slowly started to rub her back, nice and slow. Sting started roaming his hands on her back with the sponge.
"Aaaaah this feels great" Sara sighed with a smile.
The sponge was nice but tinier than his hands. Sing moved his hands to the side of her breasts rubbing against them a little.
"Shit shouldn't have done that." Sting thought mentally, he was almost feeling her kick him on the face.
Sting was being cautious, he looked at her face to check whether she was pissed or not. She was far from being pissed, her eyes were closed, her face was red and she was smiling.
"So Sting, how are things with Rogue? How was your last mission?" she asked.
Sting could feel the heat rising from her body. Sting wanted to fasten this process he took his hand back to her back and started to give her a neck rub making an attempt to unknot all of the tensions.
"Things with Rogue are just fine. Should there be something wrong with me and Rogue? Our last mission was pretty good. Lector made a little alligator friend and then the mommy alligator came around. Rogue and Frosch decided to go watch the stars, me and Lector decided to follow" he said softly.
"Aaaa Sting" she almost purred those words as Sting worked his magic. Sting smirked to himself.
"Wow! You're pretty good at this" she said while resting her head on Sting's shoulder. Shit! Shit! Shit! He was naked. Butt fucking naked.
"So Sting, tell me about you and Rogue. When did you meet Rogue? Etc etc." Sara requested while she stretched and sat back in her former position, Sting took the first chance.
He was fucking naked with a visible boner but still he continued on she was really tensed. He continued on with his work, the noises she made were pure music to his ears.
"Rogue and I met a very fucking long time ago. We're friends, we understand each other. Rogue is way calmer than me. He is a shadow dragon, he is my opposite. We want different things but we would die to protect each other and what's with this whole Rogue questions? Do you like him or something?" Sting asked with a chuckle trying to distract her.
Sting's hands were moving along with the sponge towards the sides of her breasts. Sting squeezed her breasts a little earning a soft sigh from her.
"No Sting, the real question is whether you like Rogue or not." She asked as she got up and went back into the water. Sting was shocked for a second. Sara turned around and smiled at him and gave him a wink.
He sat there shocked for a few seconds taking in what she just said and within that time span she went back to her bubble spot where there were more bubbles now.
She got there so fast. Sting sat there wondering for a few minutes, thinking. She swam way too fast. What made her swim so fast? Water. It had to be. After she took a shower she looked better. That's it, water heals her.
Sting got down into the water. The water was still really warm. The bubbles had risen. He walked over to the bubbled spot and sat right next to her, She blushed and smiled at him. Fuck. This was getting frustrating.
Sting moved his hand to her sides and pulled her closer. She giggled but didn't struggle.
"Sting watch out Rogue's gonna really mad at you" she said with a smirk. Sting looked confused. Why would Rogue be jealous of him? Wait, Does Rogue like Sara? Could it be a possibility that she actually might like him back.
"Wait does Rouge like you or something? Or is it the other way around?" Sting asked, he was so focused on the conversation that he forgot his hands were resting just under her breasts. Sting sighed and accidentally squeezed her breasts.
"Sting…." She let out a soft moan. "No I was talking about….." she trailed away as Sting gave another squeeze.
"Aaaaah! I was talking about Rogue getting mad at you for the infidelity" she gasped out as Sting squeezed them again. He was very hard, he could easily have her bend over and fuck her. Sting jerked his head. Sting stopped all his actions. Wait, him and rogue? What? WHAT?
"What in the world are you talking about? Wait you think me and Ro- ARE YOU FUCKING INSANE? I'M AS STRAIGHT AS STRAIGHT CAN GET!" Sting yelled out. Sting was fuming, he was pissed beyond belief. He and Rogue were friends and sometimes rivals at most but lovers?
Cana had finally settled down in the tub after she had returned from a very tiring job she had taken. She sighed in relief as she felt the warm water calm her. She didn't waste much time and started sipping on her drink. She was already two barrels down while she was in the bar and now she prepared three more bottles.
Cana had been stressing a lot for the past week. Avoiding the guild and the master as much as possible after the whole incident, it was only normal. Cana closed her eyes and rested her head on the cold marble behind her.
"Who the fuck do you think you are that you're just going to come into fairy tail and claim bullshit over Gildarts? What do you think just because you claim something as dumb as this and we're going to take you in? NO! we're not. You're wrong. You think me, you and Gildart's are going to be one happy family? Huh? Well dream on because that old fucker isn't here at any point in his life and at the end game I have to be stuck with you! Whatever you're doing just stop. This guild isn't for people like you. So stop blabbering utter nonsense and leave. We don't need a liar and a stupid imposter among us. JUST FUCKING LEAVE! Fairy tail has no place for you."
Cana's eyes snapped open. A single tear slid across her face. She sniffed and sipped on her drink. No, whoever that girl was, her relation was with Gildart's which was none of her business but then again she was his daughter but so was she. Granted that Cornelia married Gildart's and they had Cana but that girl is also his flesh and blood. That girl didn't deserve any of those things she had said to her. She didn't choose to have him as her father and it's not like she wanted to bond with Cana and play house. She was here to seek protection. All wanted to do was just leave a job request for fairy tail. She didn't even want to join the guild.
Cana didn't know how she even threw those words to her face. Moments after she spat those hurtful words at her, Cana regretted it immediately but even when she realized what she said she didn't even apologize. She made a mistake, a big mistake. Yes even though the master was beyond pissed after he came back from his meeting only to find that his guest was missing and Mira had told him what happened. He yelled at Cana a lot but she didn't object to anything he said. Cana sighed and wiped her eyes. Mistakes are all she ever made.
This girl could have been someone she could help. What if something bad happened to her? What if the dark guild she had told master about got to her? Cana let the tears flow this time but she was interrupted as there was a sharp knock on the door. Cana wiped her eyes and downed the last contents in her glass.
"Come in" she said in a small voice. The door opened to reveal him standing there. Swaying slightly as he was a little tipsy.
"I just finished a barrel but don't worry I brought more to fix the water works." He slurred as he sat next to the tub. He smiled at her. "Wipe that sad face off. No more crying and bitching okay? Onl- hic-uh happy drinking."
This time Cana smiled a genuine smile through her tears. How did this crazy, drunk man even understand her?
"You're being such a gentleman but yeah! It has to be wild" she said as she raised a bottle and Bacchus beamed at her because she smiled that pretty smile after such a long time.
Sting sat across Sara in the warm water, clearly pissed with a sour look on his face. Sara now sat in the far corner, letting all the bubbles hide her body. She couldn't look at Sting. She didn't dare to look at him instead she closed her eyes tightly. How could she be so dim? He was the guild master of the guild that was so kind to her and this is how she repays him. She sighed, she needed to apologize and was ready to take any punishment that he would offer.
"Sting…..I mean Master Eucliffe….." she spoke in a soft tone, Sting was looking at her as if he a little more and he could turn her into stone. "Please forgive me, I apologize for my actions even though I'm not a member of your guild, you sheltered me and all I did was make wrong accusations about you. I apologize from the bottom of my heart." She was looking down into the bubbles. Not able to meet his piercing blue eyes. She had recklessly gotten ahead of her presumption and got naked in front of him.
"Stand up" Sting ordered. Sara's head jerked up to look at him, her brown eyes finally met his blue eyes. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
"Yes Master….." she said with a small voice and stood up. She stood there completely stripped. She couldn't even use her hands to cover herself. Sting smirked at her. Just what kind of dirty punishment was he planning? Sting didn't utter a single word as he poured himself a drink. She could tell he was going to hold it against her and have his own fun. Sting looked at her with a dead serious expression.
"Sting…." She trailed away as she used her hands to cover herself. She was red faced. For the first time it was her who was red faced instead of him. It was him who had the upper hand now, he was looking at her as he took a sip from his drink. Sting put the glass down.
"So tell me. What made you think that Rogue and I are a thing?" he asked as he looked at her bare body. Sara refused to look directly at Sting's face.
"Well…you guys always go on missions together, always stay together, stay in the same house, everything thing together and the last day when you came home you were all red faced and flustered and I saw you two come out of the closet together once…." She trailed away as she looked away. Sting laughed nonchalantly which made her more uncomfortable.
"I was too busy looking at you in your new outfit. I was so out of it looking at you because you looked so beautiful, I was blushing because of that and you thought? Hahahahaha" he continued to laugh at her expense. This angered her a lot. She glared at him.
"Look Sting I understand that I made a mistake but that doesn't mean you get to take advantage of the situation. I apologize again for my misconception but I won't stand for such humiliation. Whatever you're doing, stop it now! Enough is enough. I thank you for your hospitality but this will be dragging it too far." Sara cleared herself while Sting looked at her dumb founded, it took him a few minutes to register what had just happened and as he did a chuckle escaped his lips followed by mad laughter which stopped soon. He looked solemn which left her mortified.
He stood up, and walked over to her. She was stark naked and so was he. She watched fearfully as he moved towards her. Her breath hitched and got caught up in her throat. He stood inches from her and his hand started to move to her side. She closed her eyes as if a single touch would end the world.
"Ahem…." She snapped her eyes open only to see Sting holding a towel for her. He wasn't looking at her, this time she was the one who was dumbfounded. She stared at him for a long time with her mouth slacking open. Sting extended his hand a bit more, she gingerly took the towel from him and wrapped it around herself. Sting looked at her, his expression changed and a grin replaced those grim features.
"Calm down! I didn't mean to piss you off. Your reaction was just so funny I just had to take the opportunity and besides after you called me Master. I just had to. I'm sorry. I didn't think it would upset you so much" he said before he patted her head. He started to wrap a towel around himself and got out the tub right before he left he looked behind her and smiled.
