★ Chapter 10 | All in One Day ★

TIME SKIP : Six Months Later

KINGS♔ & Royal Queens♕ (A/N : Okay this is their official name of their groups) became popular not just in South Korea but also in Japan and China, they also earn many fans everyday. After six months, when they released their music video, and their first mini album were released, because of too much profit they've earned, they decided to have a mini concert (A/N : I don't know if there's a mini concert, I just made it up) in Korea, Japan and China.

It's been six months for Gray that he last seen Juvia that night. Or was it really Juvia he saw that night?

♔ Gray Fullbuster ♔

I sighed. Me, Jellal and Natsu just finished our mini concert here in Korea. We've been practicing for months now for this concert and this is just the beginning and we're all exhausted from our practice, our choreography, our vocals and also playing with instruments. Well as a professional singer, you must have many talents besides a singing.

"Tonight's mini concert was a success." Jellal said yawning. Natsu stretched his arms and folded his arms at the back of his head with an annoyed expression on his face.

"We'll give you boys a break for one day and on the next day after that, we'll be going to Japan." My manager told us. We all agreed to him and we all go home.

♪ ♫ ~♪ ♫ ~♪ ♫ ~

I walk around town the next day. Wearing a pair of sunglasses and a cap for a disguise hiding my face. I stopped on a building that caught my interest. "Loxar Studio?" I asked myself and entered the building.

When I entered, I saw many people inside the store. Many clothes and accessories for men and women are being sold. I walked to the men's department and looked for clothes I like. Honestly, these clothes looked amazing. It really fits for a guy like me. I choose and bought the clothes I like.

When I've reached the cashier, a familiar woman was talking to a woman who looked like she was the supervisor. I turned my head to them and I was shocked.

For six months, I feel really happy again.

♕ Lucy Heartfilia ♕

"The park~" I said as I sat on the grass leaning against the tree while reading a book. I wear my reading glasses. I think people don't recognize me when I'm wearing it. Time to relax after having our mini concert and then tomorrow we’re going to Japan, which sounds amazing and visited there once.

I also heard that KINGS will be going there tomorrow. I don't understand why we're having the same schedule as them. And I believe that they're the ones who are following our activities.

And I’ve remembered him again, a man whom I mustn’t remember.

Natsu. The way he looked at me, the way he hiss, his annoying look, the bad boy personality he has, how he smiles at me and the feeling of being near to him…

Urrrgggh! Erase! Erase the thought of him!

I can’t fall in love! Especially with him! We’re rivals because of music!

But you’re friends with him at the same time, right? My conscience tells me.

I focused on reading the book I brought called Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. I found this interesting 'cause it's a classic, historical and romance. Its theme is on 18th century England and its so interesting since I'm wondering what's life on England before. I soon began to feel sleepy as I continue on reading.

My eyes began to close and I fell asleep.

I woke up when I felt someone punched on my on my left shoulder. I opened my eyes and saw a handsome face wearing a cap, the person I missed the most...

"Natsu?" I asked. I yawned. "What are you doing here?"

He hissed. "Idiot Lucy. You're sleeping on a park and many people are looking at us." 

My eyes widened and stood up. "Let's - " Before I finished my sentence, Natsu grabbed my wrist and we run away from the spot we've been. Then we're alone - me and Natsu alone somewhere in the park.

"Juvia?" Gray asked as he was a few footsteps away from her.

"Excuse me sir?" She answered back and she gasped. "You're that guy!" And she changed into a stern expression. "I told you, I'm not Juvia. Don't mistake me for my sister."

Gray was confused and raised an eyebrow. "Sister?"

She sighed in exaggeration and blush a little.

"Onee-chan?" Juvia went to Juvee and saw Gray. She blushed and waved to him. "Hi Gray!"

"Juvia?" Gray stared at her. I haven't seen you for a while, Juvia... He smiled. “How are you?”

He smiled! I’m really happy to see you! Juvia thought. “I’m fine! And you?”

“Good. Haven’t seen you in a while.” Gray answered. Tch hell six months!

“Yeah, I’ve been busy, we’re both busy. You know…”

“So you two are going to have chit chat here all day?” Juvee said in jealousy and she’s fuming inside. Gray and Juvia are close to each other urgh!

Gray and Juvia ignored Juvee and went outside the store, walking as if they don’t care where they are going and they have no directions.

“Hey!” Juvee fumed. “Hmph!” She gave up and she gets back to her own business.

Juvee goes back to Korea every five months and stays in Korea for one month helping her father’s business. Her mother, also helps in organizing the studio and decided to stay in Korea instead of being together with Juvee when she gets back to France.

♛♔ Normal {Olympic Park } ♔♛

Natsu and Lucy are alone somewhere in the park.

“Lucy, why are you sleeping in the park?” Natsu finally asked while chuckling and ge.

Lucy looked at him annoyingly. “I fell asleep because of the book that I’m reading… Oh where’s my book anyway?”

“You mean this?” Natsu said teasingly as he gets the book between his armpits ‘cause that’s the way he carried it when he grabbed Lucy’s wrist and he held it with his two fingers.

“Give it back Natsu!” Lucy started to reach for the book but Natsu raised his hand higher letting her jump for it to reach it.

He laughed at her, jumping cutely. God, I missed her. But then Lucy bumped into Natsu’s chest and his eyes widened as he looked down at her. Natsu’s hand stopped in mid air, their eyes met, and continued to gaze at each other’s eyes.

Dammit Lucy, why do I feel like this for you?

He inched his face closer to Lucy’s. Lucy blushed like a tomato.

Is he trying to kiss me? Her heart beats fast.

Lucy, you didn’t know how much I missed seeing you, hearing your voice and being with you.

"Lucy." Natsu said her name softly which made Lucy to feel the butterflies in her stomach and making her blush. Natsu shook his head and laughed.

Lucy looked at him puzzlingly with his changing behavior. One minute he looked serious and the other minute he was laughing.

This is ridiculous. I can't fall in love with her... Natsu thought while laughing.

Lucy gritted her teeth and punched his right shoulder. "Idiot!"

Natsu stopped laughing and smirked at her.

"Natsu you idiot! Idiot!" Lucy turned around and ran away from him.

Natsu was surprised by her sudden actions but he was too late in stopping her. "Lucy..." He frowned and a fist formed in his hand. Damnation!

That idiot! Lucy thought and stopped in the place where had been before Natsu woke her up. She fell to her knees and hugged her knees. "I'm such an idiot. I'm a fool..." A fool in love indeed. She thought. Love? Do I even like Natsu Dragneel?

♔ Erza Scarlet ♔

Staying inside the house is already enough for a day off for me. Relaxing inside my room turning the air con on, surfing the internet, listening to music and watching television is what I did today.

I sighed. I finished checking my Instagram, Facebook and Twitter account and many likers and followers I'm receiving everyday. I finished posting some pictures and tweets. I wore off my eyeglasses and looked at the glass window of my room. "What else should I do?" I crossed my arms over my chest and I looked at the time. It's only twelve in the afternoon. And then someone knocked on my door.

"Erza?" My mother said. "I'm going now."

An idea popped inside my head. I opened the door. "Mom! Can I help you at the store today?"

She smiled. "Are you sure? I thought you wanted to relax for today?"

I nodded. "I already done everything I wanted to do. And besides, it's been a while that I've been looking after the store."

Mom nodded. "Okay I'll give you ten minutes to fix yourself."

We arrived at the music store that mom owned. Mom was my first teacher in music and I really love music ever since I was young. Inside this store, there is a room for people to have voice lessons and learning to play instruments. Mom is opening a workshop every summer for people who wanted to learn music.

I changed the sign from close to open. I walked over to the counter and took a seat.

Many minutes later...

We don't have many costumers today. I'll sing a song. I thought. I get the guitar from the workshop room and I sit back on my chair and started to play the guitar and sing. I closed my eyes.

I'm gonna pick up the pieces,
And build a Lego house
If things go wrong we can knock it down

My three words have two meanings,
There's one thing on my mind
It's all for you

And it's dark in a cold December, but I've got you to keep me warm
If you're broken I will mend you and I'll keep you sheltered from the storm that's raging on now

I'm out of touch, I'm out of luck
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
I'll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now

I'm gonna paint you by numbers
And color you in
If things go right we can frame it and put you on a wall

And it's so hard to say it but I've been there before
Now I'll surrender up my heart
And swap it for yours

I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
I'll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better

Don't hold me down
I think my braces are breaking, and it's more than I can take

And it's dark in a cold December, but I've got you to keep me warm
If you're broken I will mend you and I'll keep you sheltered from the storm that's raging on now

I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
I'll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now

I'm out of touch, I'm out of luck
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
I'll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now

I'm out of touch, I'm out of luck
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done I will love you better now

I finished singing and heard many people clapping for me. I opened my eyes and a small audience were already in the store.

"Miss Erza can we take a picture with you?"

"Miss Erza can you sign my autograph?"

I smiled. Well a professional is always ready.

"Even though you're on a day off, seems like you're still busy." Mom told me.

"Yeah... Oh I just noticed, where's Uncle Jack and Uncle Fred?" Uncle Jack and Uncle Fred are also musicians. They are the two older brothers of mom. They also love music and they formed a band. They always sing on bars and restaurants. Ever since I'm young, I'm close to them. They have their own families, their wives are living here and having their own jobs, while their children, my cousins have their own families now.

"I forgot to tell you, your cousin Kia is coming home today, they're preparing dinner and they have invited us to come over."

I nodded. "Okay let's go there after work."

My phone rang. I received a message and opened it. "Hi" It said.

I texted it back. "Who are you?"

"You gave me your number. You know me."

"Who are you then?" I started guessing the person I’m texting to.

"Hahahaha."

♛♔ Normal {Velvet Music} ♔♛

The man smirked. "Keep guessing Erza." He was outside the music store where Erza and her mom own. He lean his back against the wall beside the glass window of the store. He wears a hoodie to hide his face. He stood straight and decided to go inside the store, putting his hands in the pockets of his hoodie. He looked around and saw a drum set that caught his attention. Erza approaches him.

“Yes sir?”

“How much are the drums,“ Erza was familiar with his voice. He removed his hoodie cap over his head. “Erza?” He smiled.

Erza blushed and her eyes widened. The two looked at each other for a moment and Erza replied, “That’s 50,000 Won, Jellal.”

“Can I have it for a discount? We know each other.” Jellal said in a teasing tone but serious at the same time.

“Fine, I can sell 48,000 Won for you.” Erza sighed in defeat.

“I’ll pay for its downpayment.” Jellal said.

“Follow me.” Erza said. They go to the cashier. Erza writes something on a paper and let Jellal signed on the paper. “6,000 Won for each month.” Jellal gets his money from his wallet.

“So you owned this store?” Jellal asked as he gave the money to Erza.

“Mom owns it.” Erza said as she gets the money from his hand slowly. But Erza stopped her hand from moving; they both looked at their hands. They both slowly move their heads up and their eyes met. Erza looks beautiful than before. Jellal thought and thought of Erza’s face during her younger years. Erza doesn’t need to know that she knows me before. He thought sadly.

Suddenly, the doors opened. Erza gets the money from Jellal’s hand as she puts it in the cash register while blushing. Jellal and Erza looked at the door and saw a little girl sobbing. She has fair skin, dirty blonde hair “Someone help me. I’m lost.” Erza approached the girl and bent to her.

“We’ll find your parents. Can I carry you?” Erza asked. The little girl nodded and Erza let her sit down on her seat. “What’s your name?”

“I’m Virginia. I’m only five.” Erza’s mother entered the scene. She looked at Erza, then the little girl then at Jellal.

“Uhh Erza, who’s this girl?” She raised an eyebrow.

“She’s lost and her name is Virginia. Mom can I help her find her parents?” Before her mom could speak up Jellal interrupted.

“In that case, I’ll help you Erza.” They all look at him.

Erza’s mom smiled. “And who’s this?” Pointing at Jellal.

“A-Ahh. Just a costumer.”

“And a friend of Erza, Mrs. Scarlet.”

Erza’s mom smiled widely. “Oh, don’t you two need to find the girl’s parents? Don’t worry about me, I’ll be here.”

“I’ll call you later mom.” Erza said and looked at Jellal, they both nodded and she held Virginia’s hand going out of the store.

“Where do you live Virginia?” Erza asked Virginia.

“I don’t know.”

“What are your parents’ names?” Jellal asked.

“I don't know.”

“Ohhh so what are they wearing? What color?” Erza asked.

“Mommy’s wearing black and daddy’s wearing white.”

“Why are you lost Virginia?” Jellal asked. The three of them stopped walking and faced Virginia.

Virginia started to sob. “Mommy and daddy are fighting earlier…”

Jellal bent to her and patted her head. Virginia looked up at him and he smiled at her. “You want me to carry you?” Virginia nodded. Jellal carried Virginia and put her on his shoulder, holding her legs. He started walking while Erza was amusingly staring at him. “We must find your parents.” Erza followed them.

Virginia laughed as she happily played with Jellal's hair. "You're like my daddy mister -"

"Jellal."

"Sir Jellal!" Virginia said joyfully. Erza observed the two and smiles. I never knew Jellal had a side like this.

 Jellal smiled. Wendy… He thought and Wendy’s face flashed inside his head. He snapped out. “So where did you last saw your parents, Virginia?”

“We were at the Olympic Park. I saw a blonde haired lady sleeping by the tree. Daddy said we should wake her up by shouting at her ear. Mommy heard what he said and she argued with him.”

“And what happened to the lady who was sleeping by the tree?” Erza asked with curiosity. I just hope it wasn’t Lucy… She thought with concern.

“She ran with a pink haired guy.” Virginia replied. This made Jellal and Erza looked at each other. Natsu and Lucy… They both thought. They looked the other way avoiding each other’s eyes and blushed.

“You ran from Olympic Park all the way to Erza’s store?” Jellal asked changing the subject.

“Yes. And miss Erza, you looked like my mom.” Virginia said.

Like her mother… Erza thought and examined Virginia’s face. Then she realized something. “Virgnia, I think I know your parents.”

"Aunt Erza!" Virginia approached Erza giving her a present. "Mom has something for you."

Erza accepted it and smiled at Virginia. "Thank you."

Virginia is the daughter of Brylle and Kia Summers, and Kia is Erza's cousin. Erza analyzed Virginia's face very well and realized that she looked like Kia. They were at Kia's new house, and having dinner with closest relatives. Erza looked at everyone and they were being happy. She looked at Jellal, talking to Brylle.

"Auntie Erza, do you like uncle Jellal?" Virginia said to her while smiling widely.

Erza blushed and giggled. "Why you!" She started tickling Virginia's sides, laughing with each other.

♪ ♫ ~♪ ♫ ~♪ ♫ ~

"So tired." Erza said when she lie down on her bed. She hugged her pillow and smiled dreamily. "But I have fun today..."

"Gotta be ready for tomorrow!" Juvia said as she lie down on her bed and yawned.

Gray was smiling all by himself thinking about him and Juvia.

Jellal smirked. "Erza..."

Today was the best! Juvia, Gray, Erza and Jellal thought before they go to sleep

"I gotta apologize when we meet again..." Natsu said to himself.

"Urgggh... Stop thinking about him." Lucy groaned.

I'll see you soon Lucy / Natsu. Natsu and Lucy thought before going to sleep.
