Lucy Heartfilia sighed as she sat on her designated stool in front of Fairy Tail's bar.
It's not like she was complaining or anything; it would just be nice if Natsu actually invites her to tag along with him and Happy to their missions these past days.
But she had just sat there the whole day waiting for Natsu to ask her as usual, only to watch on as the dragon slayer and exceed kept going in and out of the guild. They had taken on a grand total of eleven, make that twelve, jobs so far.
She idly swung her feet back and forth as she gazed around the more than half empty guild, most of the Mages were out on last mission jobs in order to qualify to become an S-class Mage according to Loke who was going to partner up with Gray.
She wondered if maybe Erza had enough time on her hands for her, but she didn't want to bother the readhead.
"Lucy-chan? Natsu still hasn't asked you to go on a job yet?" Mirajane asked, frowning in concern.
Lucy flashed Mirajane an assuring smile.
"He's busy trying to become an S-class Mage, I don't want to be a burden."
Mirajane was about to protest to Lucy's statement before shaking her head, "It's okay, I'll get those two to take you on a job at six, so go home and prepare, okay?"
Lucy sent Mirajane a thankful smile before grabbing her blue jacket and exiting the guild.
Loke had told her that the master was the one who decided who would be qualified to take the trials or not, but Lucy couldn't help but disagree at the method.
She thought that there were more than a few Mages in the guild who were more than ready to become S-class, such as Levy and Cana.
It was kind of unfair that only those who passed the trial can become S-class, but it wasn't her place to judge the way Makarov chose to do things, though... it would be nice to have the power to change the rules.
And she admitted that it would also be nice if she could qualify to become an S-class Mage, but what was she thinking?
She was only in the guild for about six months and there were a lot of more promising Mages to choose from than her, but even so she couldn't help but think about it.
Her being S-class....
Lucy shook her head, what was she thinking? The tittle of S-class belonged to people like Erza, not plain old Lucy.
Never plain old Lucy.
She let out a puff of her breath as she stepped onto the river's wall.
She knew that compared to people like Erza that she was a nobody, just a background supporting character in their stories.
