Natsu's Nine Personas [Collaboration Story]

Chapter 13: Two Piece

*:･ﾟ✧ LUCY *:･ﾟ✧

We arrived at the beach a little later. And now, we enjoy the sea in it's commemorative anniversary.

I stretched out my arms as I feel the warm summer air. The waves rang on my ears, filling me with euphoria. The texture of the sand is rather welcoming and there's this sense of adventure that I couldn't help but feel as I took in everything before me.

And so Bakadere and I had decided to 'rendezvous' at the beach. Dandere insisted to go here for a date last time, though; I don't think it would be that enjoyable with him (<---Pervert). Since Bakadere is indeed bakadere, this might go along well. I couldn't help but giggle, in a thought that out of all the deres that I had met, Bakabaka was the one who reminded me most of Natsu.

There's only one problem.

"Hey, Rushi-mushii !" The pink haired glutton waved at me, his mouth full with bacon. "What're you doing out there? I thought we're going to roast marshmallows?"

All he cares about is food. 

I won't actually be surprised if his little brain only realizes now that we are actually on a date. Or at least, if he remembers this is a date.

Well, what do I say? I 'persuaded ' him to say yes with likely a promise that I'm going to feed him like the pig he is.

"Don't you want to go swim with me, Batsu?" I asked as I take a seat beside him.

For a moment, he paused to look at me, munching like there's no tomorrow. "Swim?" He answered with his eyebrows curved. "Is it edible?"

"W-What?" My face exploded with confusion. "Of course it isn't in the first place!" I've already heard those same dense questions, but I never got used to it.

"Ahh.. You meant eating on the water. I seeee." It was too late for me to correct his words. "Do I get more food if I agreed?"

"I really want to punch you right now," I gave him a tight-lipped smile. "What do I do to make you stop eating?"

What the bloody hell should I do so he'd divert his attention to me?

HOW CAN I EVEN KISS HIM IF ALL HE THINKS ABOUT IS FOOD?

What, do I have to go cosplay as a meat or something?

I should have thought it more carefully when I took food as an advantage to him.

I rolled my eyes, sighing in displeasure.

"I dunno. Make me full?" He replies without a second thought. "Meh, if you keep on doing whatever you do, I won't kiss you," I flinched at his sudden announcement. I stared at him, wide eyed.

"Pardon?"

" 'Ya heard me ear-blinded," He once again paused from eating (more like chomping really). "I knew back then--- Coodere in the Cooking Class, then Dandere in the Restaurant-- I know you're the one who made them disappear."

Silence hung in the air.

"They're my sisters," He continued. Instead of laughing, I felt my guilt more as it pierce my chest. On his eyes rather, I am probably the worst person he ever knows.
