I hummed a song as i go to the next shelf to choose some snacks. I've already done the additional needs and other stuff.
I hummed happily, Then I remembered the event that happened earlier.
Geez, They're such an idiot.
Always fighting no matter where, when or what.
And what's wrong with them? Getting all angry and snappy, i thought Sting adored Natsu! Well, not in a romantically way.
Or is he?
How come now they fight like cat and dogs?
Hmm, maybe they were jealous?
I chuckled at my own thought.
that'll be adorable if it's true, but not so adorable if they fight carelessly like that.
Sting was one thing, but Rogue?
While Sting and Natsu bickered with each other, i stared at Rogue who kept looking at the ground.
I didn't say anything, but I suspected something.
It was like...
He's communicating with the shadow.
"Hey Lucy?" a voice called out, i let out a shriek and glanced up to see the owner of the voice.
Rogue stared at me, "Oh, Sorry. Did I surprise you?"
Speak of the devil.
I laughed nervously, "Y-you just surprised me!"
"..Are you done with it, Yet?" He asked, "You were spacing off."
"Yeah, that's because I'm confused whether I should choose cheetos or sour gummy bears!" I whined, it wasn't exactly a lie. I was confused.
He chuckled, "You were confused with that?"
He got amused, i huffed in annoyance.
"Just take those two." He suggested, "But my money won't be enough! I didn't bring much today!" I cried, having the thought of only choosing one when you want both of them saddened me.
"I'll pay for it." He assured me.
"I'm gonna be on debt with you."
"No, seriously. You don't have to pay me back." He grabbed the two packets and put it inside his cart. "It's also for apology."
"About what?"
He frowned, "You wanted to come with him, didn't you? You wanted to be with your teammates." He stated.
I gulped.
"Well that is true." I said, "But, they're one their job and I'm also in my job. I can't neglect those just to see my friends. Besides, Right now you guys are my teammates now!" I patted his back and grinned.
Since being with them makes me happy, after all.
"What does that mean?"
"It means i'll be with you guys, I'm not gonna leave you guys!" I exclaimed as i secretly put a chocolate bar inside his cart.
Yes, yes. I'm sneaky, but once you see an opportunity you better take it, right?
"You won't leave us?" He asked, part of his voice is filled with disbelief and concern.
I frowned, "Seriously, i won't."
After a moment of thought, he smiled at me. "That's great."
I smiled back at him, his smile was adorable. He should smile more often, maybe I should find jokes to make him laugh. But he doesn't seems like the type to listen to some dumb Joke.
So, i made a promise with him with a pinky promise.
He stared at me with his poker face, "Seriously, Pinky promise? How old are you again?"
"Shut up! It's just better than cross my heart and die, i don't want to die. Besides this is a pinky promise so that you won't leave me!" I exclaimed, trying to make it more dramatic.
"I won't leave you." He stated in a serious tone, it made me blush a little.
Doki.
That's a foul, damnit!
"So will i." I said to him and walked forward after our pinky touched.
.
.
"I saw the chocolate."
I cursed silently.
"I heard that."
Tch.
-------
I pointed to the red sky, as i pushed myself to the sky with this red swing.
"You see that? That crimson sky with yellow clouds? Beautiful. Hey, you heard that? The sounds of little birds singing with their friends on the sky, so small and cute. And the smell of the Nature! You feel the wind? It jusf makes you feel comfor-"
"Stop, Just... STOP." Sting cutted me off, massaging his head. "Just stop your speech!"
I frowned.
"Will you just please stop praising the nature? Your speech is making me having headaches, Thanks a lot." He said sarcastically.
I smiled innocently, "You're welcome!"
"Can you please just... Find something else to do?" He begged.
"What else to do here?! We're just hopelessly hanging around on a kid's park!" I yelled at him.
Rogue who kept silent just continued his sighing.
You wanna know why we're in this park?
Yeah? Well this happened because the guys didn't have the balls to face Minerva off.
After we finished shopping, we just remembered Minerva's fury.
And ended up getting drunk on air on a park.
"Look guys, I'm going to go to the guild first. I'm going to clean our names." Rogue said seriously.
Me and Sting stared at him horrified.
"No,No,No Rogue! We still have long ways ahead of us!" I cried, pulling him. "We can't lose you!"
"She's right, we're still young! you can't sacrifice yourself like this." Sting yelled, pulling the other side of Rogue, "This isn't right!"
"I don't want you to go there, meet the witch and get bribed by candies which I absolutely think that you would end up getting bribed easily, and then ends up getting burned just to be the Witch's desserts!" I screamed.
"Even if you did escape she'll probably already set up a trap and you'll end up getting caught and you will be forced to eat a candy that can make your legs not move or whatever!" Sting told him, desperate.
"Are we talking about Hansel and Gretel?" I asked.
"Yep."
Rogue sighed, "Look guys, can you just not think that I'll get easily bribed by a candy and get burned down to get eaten?"
"But it's you we're talking about!"
"Put some faith on me, alright?" Rogue grumbled. "If in three hours I'm not coming back..."
"I know, Run for your lives, takes all your things that can get sell, move into another country, change our name, change our appearance and open up a pawn shop." I nodded proudly.
They stared at me with disbelief and decided to just pretend I never ever said that.
"I'm kidding."
