Nothing Beats a First Kiss?

By: Clovergiel

Natsu Dragneel, together with Happy, joyfully opened the door that led them inside their beloved guild. He scanned through the room, probably searching for his blond companion.

"Aha! There you are, Luce!" Natsu beamed as he pointed his long index finger at Lucy Heartfilia who was currently sitting on the bar stool near Mirajane Strauss, sighing unenergetically.

He quickly ran towards Lucy as he sat on the stool opposite her.

"Hey, Lucy. Let's go on a mission today. They said that some of the requests have increased their rewards offered!"

Lucy's head leaned flatly on the table before her, still not interested even with the good news he had brought her. Natsu didn't lose hope though instead, he poked her throughout her body, continuing to beg for her approval.

Lucy seemed irritated of Natsu's constant brawls so she gave up and raised her hands up in the air.

"Alright, alright! We'll go. But I get to pick the mission, you understand?" Lucy scowled at him.

"Hai!" Natsu said with a full smile plastered on his face. "So I'll pick you up later after you've chosen the-"

"Hep!" Lucy interrupted him, "Nah-uh, We're going tomorrow. Just not today, Natsu. And I'll still have to pack if were off to a long journey, you know."

"Alright." Natsu's face fell as he and happy walked out of the guild.

"Poor Natsu," Lucy muttered as she glanced up at Mira, who was giving her the same apologetic look. Lucy decided to choose the mission later since they'll be heading off tomorrow.

"Ah, Lucy!" Mira's face lightened as if she remembered something. Lucy gazed at the long-haired girl as the latter took something from her pocket. "Check this out."

Mira handed her a blue, cylindrical tube which can be opened in half.

"What's that?" Lucy asked, bemused.

"It's a magical lip gloss. I saw it earlier in town today and decided to buy it. It changes color as you apply it, according to the color you want. I haven't tested it yet but the shop owner told me that it can enhance your sex appeal by 50%," Mira smiled at Lucy, who now has her jaw dropped.

"Go on, try it," Mira added.

"But it's yours-"

"Don't worry, I have mine," she said as she held up a similar cylinder tube, but in color pink. "And please treat that as my gift to you."

"Thanks, Mira. But I'll just try it later at home, if you don't mind. Oh! Which reminds me, I have to go pick our mission for tomorrow. Ja ne, Mira-san!"

"Bye Lucy," Mira said, waving her hand at Lucy, who was on her way to the request board.

"Woah, so it's true," Lucy murmured to herself as she glanced at the mission requests in front of her. Her eyes were in awe after seeing the increased prices of the rewards on most of the missions.

"If this goes well, I'll be able to pay my rent until the next two months."

Lucy's gaze stopped on a piece of paper located on the lower left side of the board. She examined the paper and a suppressed smile crept in her lips. It involves battles and stuff , but Lucy didn't care one way or another. She can gain two silver keys, aside from a million and a half jewels, if they're able to carry out this mission swiftly--which she doubts with Natsu's destructive character.
