I looked back at Lucy who just stared at me with curious eyes. Just before we left, when my dad or Loke weren't looking, I winked at her and then walked off. I managed to get a quick glance at her flustered and angry face just before I left, which made me smirk.

Actually, she looks kind of familiar. Ehh, oh well. It's not her. Anyway, she's so cute...

(Lucy's POV)

"Looks like you're getting out of here fast." Levy smirked.
"S-shut up!" I blushed.
"Do you even know who that is?" She inquired. I shook my head. He looked like a stuck up brat to me.

"He's Prince Natsu, heir to the kingdom of Fiore. If he picks you, you'll be treated well." Levy explained.
"Well, what does a maid do?" I asked, tilting my head slightly.
"Anything his or her master says." Levy replied almost instantly, a dull expression on her face.

"A-anything!?" I felt worried. "Even.."
"Yep." Levy replied.
"Well, I hope I'm not picked then." I said in a huff. "I don't want to do any of that!"
"I'm afraid you don't have a choice." Said a man stood on the other side of our cell. He had yellow hair and wore glasses.

"Sup Loke." Levy said.
"Nice to see you too, Levy." Loke replied.
"This is Lucy, she's new around here." Levy gestured towards me, and I smiled at him awkwardly.
"Yeah, I kinda just introduced her to the King and the Prince." He replied, smirking slightly.

"So, Loke, why are you here?" She asked.
"Well, I have a request from Aries to send her the newcomer, Lucy Heart."

"Yep, that's me." I sighed.
"Good good. Come with me Lucy, you'll be back soon." He told me, opening up the door in the cold, metal bars.

I stood up and he let me out the cell. We walked past the rest of the cells where I heard a lot of wolf whistles directed at me. Eww. Then we went through a door into what looked like a boutique.
"I'll leave you in the capable hands of Aries, then." Loke said, and he walked away.

"Sumimasen~" [Sorry/Excuse me] I heard a faint whisper and turned around. "What is your name?" It was a girl. She had pink hair, pale skin and wore woolly clothes.

"I'm Lucy, who are you?" I asked.
"I'm Aries. I'm your stylist." Aries replied. "Sumimasen~ Please follow me."

I was placed inside a cold, dark corner, where I was stripped of my rags and washed until I was sparkling clean. When I got out, Aries was stood there, holding out some clothes for me to wear.
"Sumimasen~ Please put these on." She stuttered, holding the clothes out towards me at arm's length.

Why does she keep apologizing?

She had given me a blue and white strapless crop top that hugged my body, showing off the size of my boobs, an extremely short blue miniskirt where you could nearly see my bum, and some thigh high blue boots.

"I look a bit... Erm... Aren't I showing a bit too much skin?" I asked, staring in awe at the extremely small outfit.
"Sumimasen~ That's how we're told to dress you, then you appeal more to your master." She explained.

Aries then brushed my blonde locks, leaving most of it down but then tying a small piece up at the side with a blue ribbon, all before doing my makeup.

"Okay, you're done." Aries smiled, stepping back to admire her work. At that exact moment, another girl walked in wearing a maids dress and she had short, pink hair.

"Excuse me, can I take the princess into the next room now?" Asked the Maid. Princess? What the-
"O-oh! Sumimasen~ Yes you can Virgo." Said Aries. "Lucy, please go with Virgo, she's going to teach you about being a maid."

Oh god.

(Natsu's POV)

"Yo, Gray, Gajeel, what's up?" I asked. Gray was my page boy and Gajeel was my head personal guard. They're also my friends, so I let them have a maid too.

"Not much, your majesty." Gray replied.
"Hey, stop being formal, it's creepy." I said.
"Alright Flame Brain." Gray snickered. I also heard Gajeel chuckle.

"So, I've seen some of the maids that are going on show tomorrow..." I grinned.
"No way!" "Are they fit?" They both said at once.
"They are, but there's one that I've got my eye on."

That girl, Lucy. I recognise her from somewhere. I'm not talking about the history lesson, I mean from my childhood. Her last name...

Heart. It sounds familiar.

"Natsu~" Gajeel was waving his hand in front of my face. "Your dinner is ready, go!" He said.

I couldn't stop thinking about that Lucy... I mean, it's probably not her, but it might be.
