Just imagine Loke…Loke…He is Loke. He. Is. Loke. Yes, I got it. Lucy took a deep breath and looked ahead. It wasn't like she had a choice, it was a promise, you see, and Lucy was taught to never break a promise.
Err, okay, Loke-kun...Loke…And you ask: why did she make a promise that she didn't want to keep? Well, simply put, it was a deal.
Lucy training for…can you believe it? A kiss.
And you really couldn't blame her, with all the nonsense spilling out of that boy's mouth, one learns to ignore it all. She just wasn't listening. Who knew that a small little "yes, sure" would lead to this?
Lucy cringed, for more than the first time that day. She was putting all her concentration on imagining Loke—and it was hard. In no way was this man—no, this boy, like Loke-kun. For instance, his mouth. It was truly an ugly mouth, those thin and slimy lips…they were nothing, really, nothing like Loke's. (She will admit that she was caught more than once staring at those…those delicious, perfect lips.)
But the challenge only urged Lucy to try harder… More minutes passed as she stupidly repeated 'Loke' in her mind.
"Lucy-san? Lucy-san…I think the best place for our wonderful and lustful kiss would be under that blossoming tree of blossoming cherry blossoms. Don't you think?"
Shit, shit...how am I supposed to imagine Loke with you talking like that? Lucy-san? In my dreams, maybe. She smiled and put on a polite voice, "Ah, yes. Sure."
Seconds later, they were positioned under a cherry blossom tree in uncomfortable silence. Lucy, determined and now staring ahead, was muttering 'Loke'. And Lee, who was sifting from foot to foot—obviously nervous.
As he gathered his courage, Lucy's seemed to falter, making her look away. How many minutes were spent as one looked up, and the other looked down—who knew? Did it matter? All that was important was that it wasn't ever going to end.
Going on, and on, it was…ongoing.
Until, finally, both their heads snapped up, as if someone had called "GET ON WITH IT!" And so, their eyes locked and everything seemed to freeze. The annoying shouts and screams of the children playing nearby disappeared and Lucy's merciless Loke-ing came to an end.
Lucy, self-proclaimed Prettiest Girl in Konoha, braced herself, getting her chakra ready for healing (just in case).
A sudden thought came over Lucy, this isn't so bad…he looks almost…cute—being all nervous like that. Not bad at all, the scenery is so peaceful too...
She leaned in, closing her eyes, (Some might have been expecting this—) just as Lee leaned back out. Making poor Lucy trip and fall face first into the ground (she needed healing after all!).
"I'm sorry, Lucy-san, but we have forgotten something. Something our kiss can not do without, and I—"
"Yeah, yeah, Leo, just get on with it."
"Yes ma'am, my beautiful lady!" he saluted. Saluted. And guess what he did now? Leo the crazy-green-spandex-loving boy grabbed a whole handful of 'blossoming cherry blossoms'—right off the tree (Lucy cringed again at this), and sprinkled it all over the ground.
"Now we can stand on this beautiful ground, and share our first kiss!"
First kiss? Boy, this will be your only kiss, Lucy thought, if I were a sketched character…I would sweatdrop right now.
