Titania and the Card Mage's Little Dragon

Chapter Four Battle of the Aunts/A Barmaid's Job

August 11th

(Mirajane Strauss) I'm cleaning up some glasses when Levy and Evergreen walked into the guild hall arguing, Levy I'm Natsu's favorite aunt no I'm Natsu's favorite aunt snapped back Evergreen, Before they could come to blows I walked over before I stepped between them and I said with a frown girls please calm down, Natsu wouldn't want any of his aunts or uncles to fight each other, Sorry Mira Levy and Evergreen apologized to me before they apologized to each other.

Besides I'm the favorite aunt of Natsu's I said with a smirk and I then walked back over to the bar counter and I continued to clean until someone yelled GRAY YOUR CLOTHES which rang throughout the hall which was shortly followed afterwards by Natsu saying keep your clothes on you perverted popsicle which angered gray to which Gray responded with oh yeah flame breath and what if I don't want to!

Boys I called out as I decided to deescalate the situation why can't you both get along with each other? He's my rival both of them responded back, I decided that since I can't properly get through to both of them I used my ace card, If you boys don't behave then I will unfortunately have to inform your mothers about this little issue, Natsu's face drained of all color while Gray started to shake with fear.

Natsu said please don't tell Mama Aunt Mira she will punish me Gray said same goes for me to Aunt Mira, Good now you both behave yourselves and go outside and play just so the boys don't misbehave I sent Lisanna to keep an eye on the boys, Natsu really loves his Aunt Lisanna and he has been on his best behavior whenever she is around or if his mom is around.

Erza walked up to the bar and she asked me Mira has any strawberry cake arrived? Yes in fact the weekly shipment arrived just an hour ago Erza, I could get you a slice of cake if you'd like? I was love a piece Erza replied with a small smile and so I said Alright I will have a piece of cake coming up real, How has motherhood been treating you Erza?

Erza said with a sad smile it has been hard because I'm very unsure of what I'm doing for example this morning I didn't even know what size shoes Natsu wears, on top of that I think he fears me and it really breaks my heart, I then asked have you thought of asking him how he feels about everything that has happened? Erza just shook her head and said I wouldn't know where to start Mira!

Everything that has happened to Natsu Gray and Lucy is a big shock for all of us but we will all get through this together as a family I said as I gave Ezra's shoulder a gentle squeeze, Here's your cake Erza I then placed the plate of cake in front of Erza, I heard that tomorrow night you and Cana are going on a date with each other!

I'd be lying if I wasn't very nervous Mira because what if I mess this up for Natsu and I! You shouldn't think like that because it will only cause you to think negatively of yourself and any actions that you may make, Motherhood is very hard but it can be very rewarding, Take Elfman Lisanna and I our parents passed away when Lisanna was only a year old.

So with me being the eldest sibling it was my responsibility to raise them by myself and look at them now both of them are amazing young adults who genuinely love and care for each other and so same goes to our guild family members, My point is that there were days that I struggled but it was also very rewarding to watch them grow up.

It maybe hard right now but once you and Natsu are able to find a good balance and get a good system in place I'm sure you'll both will be fine, And don't worry about Natsu while you are on your date with Cana Lisanna and I will watch him for you while you're gone, Erza released a sigh of relief and she said Mira you're a lifesaver. Hey that is what friends are for Erza! The two of us chatted for hours.
