CHAPTER #13
LUCY's POV
A FROWNED embedded into my face as I look at him. I blew thru my mouth before I look at the entire place – everyone is busy doing their task and here I am – looking at him – like he turned into a freaking mushroom, "Do we really need to do this shit?" I murmur under my breath but enough for him to hear.
Natsu took a glance on me – and I pouted my lips "This is part of the activity, Vanilla" he said like that's the only thing I need to hear in order for me to do my part.
"It doesn't make sense!" I said crossing my arms below my breast. I don't know why we need to learned on making a cupcake. I mean, we have maids or I have money to buy a cupcake if I wanted too. I felt Natsu's intense gaze on me "What?" I asked him innocently but my frowned never leave my face.
"Vanilla" he started "Come here" I roll my eyes before I stood up on my chair and walk towards him – he smile softly before he pass to me the I don't know what's it called then stood behind me as he guide me on mixing all the ingredients "Making cupcake is fun, Vanilla"
Fun my ass -_- I heard him chuckle but I remain myself mute "You know... I would like to taste your cupcake"
C-Cupcake? My cupcake? I blush furiously as I remember what happened on my room three days ago. We almost do that 'thing'. And he says he wants to taste my cupcake? Does he mean he want to taste my umm...
My sentiment was cut off short when I heard him chuckle which makes me blush even more. Damn, curse my dirty mind! "W-What?" I says.
I felt his finger playing the tip of my hair which makes me blush even more – I saw his lips twisted into an impish smile "What are you thinking, Vanilla?" he says before he rest his chin over my shoulder. I bit my lower lips and shook my head, his left hand gently snake on my tummy which makes me blush even more "Really? You're not going to share it with me?"
I open my mouth to say something but eventually close it when my own words vanished in my throat. I clear my throat "What should I do next?" I say trying to change our conversation. He instructed me on what should I do next. Natsu remain on my back – again, I should chastise him for being too comfortable with me but for some reason, I couldn't find the strength to push him away for me.
I smile, as I remember our first meeting – it was truly disaster. I hate everything about him before but here I am letting this man besides me to get near and step my personal space.
"Vanilla?" he called me – I look at him quizzically "What are you thinking? I've been dying to know what you are thinking" he said pouting.
"Why you need to know?" I said trying my best not smile in front of him.
"Because it's making you blush and smile!" he said making my eyes grew wider – shock is visible on my face as I held his gaze. Natsu cup my face and stare me intensely "Tell me, please"
"I was thinking the first time I saw you," I says which makes his eyes grew wider "I just realize how much I hate you—"
I couldn't finished my own words when I saw how his jaw tightened and his eyes – I couldn't decipher the emotion I'd see there "You hate me?" he says. I nodded and open my mouth to say but he continue "Then why did you asked me to stay with you?"
"Natsu... I'm—"
"You hate me that much, huh" he stood up there behind me and it feels like he was too far for my reach. My heart clench as I held his gaze "Then how could I keep my promise you, if you hate me?"
What?
I REMAIN myself mute as I stare out the window. I still can't believe what I just learned from my parents this morning. I can't believe that he really do what he said yesterday. I grimace, I should've known that he never intended to keep his promise to me. What a jerk!
Levy Mcgarden: Hi, Lu – chan.
Lucy Dragneel: Hello, Levy – chan. How are you? How's Europe?
Levy Mcgarden: Well, it was fine, I guess. You should come here on your vacation. You will surely love this place, Lu – chan.
Lucy Dragneel: If my parents will allow me to go there.
Levy Mcgarden: I'm sure they will allow you especially if that boyfriend of yours will come too.
Lucy Dragneel: Sure :)
My heart clench in pain when I read her last message. I don't know why I'm feeling this way. My eyes clouded in tears as I stare on my phone – thinking on what I should reply on her message. My sentiment was cut off short when the car stop only to find out that we arrive at my school. Capricorn open the door for me and bow his head "Thank you so much, Capricorn" I say.
"Have a nice day, Lady" he said,
"Thank you," I murmur "And please don't fetch me later. Or rather, I'll just text you after I've done with my errands"
"Certainly, Lady" he said with a bow. I smile and went directly towards my classroom. I can feel the gaze that my classmate are giving to me. Maybe because, this was the very first time I come to school alone. I hurriedly went to my seat and tried to make myself invisible by pretending that my classmates were behaving normally and not pointing fingers and whispering behind my back.
The door slid open with such a force that is crashes against the wall with a loud bang, startling the students "Good morning" my homeroom teacher chirped as he skipped to the front of the class, "Anyway, I have a bad news..." he started "Natsu Dragneel will transferred out" blah blah blah. I didn't listen to my teachers and I started to draw from my notes practically ignoring everybody.
I hate to admit it! But I'm fucking pissed off because of that guy. He should at least told me about this!
I LET out a deep sigh as I gave a smile to her – due to the emergency meeting of the teachers. The classes are half day and since I don't want to go home I stayed here in the school. "You should have told me everything, Lu – chan" Levy – chan said as she dramatically roll her eyes on the camera.
I chuckle under my breath "Well," I say with a shrug "I'm done with my essay, Levy – chan" I say trying to change our topic.
I saw how her eyes roll into me "You really don't want to talk about it, don't you?" she says with a sigh.
"Yeah" I says truthfully "So are we going to talk about my essay?"
Levy – chan lips twisted into an impish smile "I'll asked about the vice president of our club to publish your essay."
"You know," I started "I would love too, but I think my essay is not that great"
"It is great, Lu – chan" she reassured me "Please email your essay to me so I could read it okay. And oh, my parents told me that they will arrange my wedding soon"
"Do you even have a fiancée?" I asked with a frowned. I chuckle when Levy – chan snort I was about to open my mouth to say something when I feel someone approach me – I look at her with a frown "Umm... yes?"
"Are you, Lucy Heartfilia?" the girl with brown hair ask me which is weird because I don't know them.
"Who are you?"I asked with a frown. The woman in front of me smile like she was amused on my reaction. I open my mouth to say something but close it when I heard that familiar voice.
"Cana, damn it!" his voice sounds annoyed. The woman in front of me look behind her and there I saw him once again – but he wasn't paying attention to me but instead he was looking at this woman "I told you to fucking wait!"
"I want to meet her" the woman says.
"I asked the guard." He hissed "All the students went home including her."
I saw the woman in front of me roll her eyes before crossing her arms below her breast "So I'm just drunk and hallucinating that the lady behind me wasn't Lucy Heartfilia?" that was the cue for Natsu to finally look at her face. I remain myself calm in front of him and I'm thankful that I manage to smile even though I want to kill this jerk.
I excuse myself and look for my phone where I saw my best friend is carefully waiting for my return. I gave her an apologetic smile "I'm sorry, Levy – chan. Can we talk later about my essay?"
"Are you alright?" she asked me worriedly.
"I'm fine." I says with a smile "Talk to you later" I say waving my hand before I turned off the video chat. I inhale sharply before I look at them "Do you need something from me?" I says politely.
"Lucy, what are you doing here?" he asked me. So Lucy? I thought it was Vanilla? I mentally roll my eyes with my thought and remain myself mute. "Lucy?"
"You are Natsu's girlfriend, isn't" the woman with brown hair said as she held my hand "I am Cana Alberona, Natsu's friend"
I gasp escaped from my lips when all of a sudden she dragged me out of the campus. And there, I saw a not – so – familiar faces "Guys! I saw Lucy Heartfilia" Cana shouted calling the attention of them.
A woman with a white – wavy haired look at me with an awe "You really look so beautiful just like how Erza describe you" she said – I was confused literally "My name is Mira Jane Strauss, by the way."
I open my mouth to say something when someone put his arms around my shoulder – and when I turn my head to see it "Loki" I mumble irritate.
His eyes shine with amusement "So you remember me, beautiful girl" he say which makes me roll my eyes "You still beautiful and feisty as ever"
"And you still that irritating and annoying man" I say as I remove his arms around me "And stop touching me will you" I glare him.
He put his arms once again "Still beautiful" he says and I was about to punch him on his face when Natsu remove his arms around me glaring to Loki "Okay... okay... I won't touch her," he said "Chill man"
"You meet her already" Natsu voice was so cold which making my heart clench "Can we go back to Magnolia?"
"We want to get – to – know your girlfriend, Natsu" Mira said.
Natsu open his mouth to say something "You can't win on my girlfriend, Natsu" the man who had a blond hair say as he carefully wrapped his arms on Mira's waist. He look at me "I'm Laxus, by the way" he said and I nodded.
"Maybe we should go to a nearest café, right Lucy" Mira suggested – and they all agreed as if my opinion wasn't really matter, "Lucy?"
"I'm sorry but I can't go with you." I say as I bow my head a little "I have lots of things to finish today and my fetcher will be here soon."
"But... but" Mira Jane begs me and I shook my head "Natsu..." she says like she was silently asking for Natsu to convince me.
Natsu open my mouth to say something but I just continue "And Natsu and I are over." I says "So I think, getting – to – know me is not necessary anymore since I'm not his girlfriend. Excuse me" I say.
I waited for him to run after me, but he didn't. He just let me walk away like that. Well, I guess this is finally over.
