Ch. 35: Natsu's Type of Girl

{Lucy's POV}

I sighed dreamily at the sight of Gajeel giving flowers to Levy. I wonder what they're talking about. It was so obvious that I want the both of them to be together already. I had already told Levy about it, but she was just taking it as a joke. She told me they were just friends (although he calls her Shrimp) and that would never happen. I say that's just for now, and it will not last longer. That I promise.

With a good mood, I sat down an empty table and ordered a milkshake. My eyes glimmered at the sight of it when it was placed on my table a few minutes later. I am in love with milkshakes.

"You really love it like you want it to be your boyfriend." I looked up from the voice and saw that it was Natsu. I narrowed my eyes at his statement. What's up? "Your milkshake." Oh.

I knew he needed—no, wanted something because he wouldn't do this in normal circumstances. "So?"

A passive look was what I saw from him. "You know me well." He said as he sat down in front of me. "You used to drink one when you were a kid every after two hours." I think I know this already. I just hope it's not what I think it is. "You used to share them with me... so can I take a sip?"

With a shake of my head, I said, "No."

"Why not?"

I leaned closer to him. "Look back and reflect what you had just told me. "... you used to share them with me."" I quoted.

"So?" I felt like he just returned the question I have asked earlier. Not only that, I felt like I was a retard, too. "What's so wrong about it?"

"That was back then." I replied, leaning back. "I wouldn't want to share it to you too because..." As I tried to think of a more valid excuse, a horrifying idea popped in my mind. I only have one straw. If I let him take a sip...

"Fine then." He stood up. I guess he was annoyed. Why should I care? It isn't bad to not share something you like every once in a while. I watched him walk away.

"I sense some unusual atmosphere." More like tense. "What happened?" I replied with a shrug as he took Natsu's seat.

Erza came in the scene. She stopped by, leaning her elbow on the wooden table. "What happened?" She asked like Jellal, but she was answered by a really annoying silence. "Yeah, that happened. Why is the atmosphere like this? And why are your faces like that?" She queried but for the second time, she was answered by a long period of silence. Jellal seemed more awkward for some reason. "Thank you for answering me." She said sarcastically and walked away.

"I wouldn't bother you anymore. Hope to see you happy soon." He could've just told me that he'll apologize to Erza. It was so obvious anyway that Natsu could've figured it out too. And my hunch was right. I saw him talking to Erza with a pleading look. Much to Jellal's disappointment, he was just deliberately ignored. I felt guilty now. This was somehow my fault.

"We're going home in a few minutes!" Just in time, I had finished drinking my milkshake.

I went over to the van and tried to open the door. Locked.

"We're going home!" Juvia reminded as she unlocked the car with the keys. I was about to sit beside her when someone tugged at my shirt. I got cranky and turned to see two people smirking at me like they were planning something evil. Planned, rather. They're finished.

"Nope, you're going to sit at the very back beside Natsu." They both told me. I couldn't do anything about it because they pulled me out of the van. They were too strong for me to handle. I secretly gave Erza and Jellal murderous glares. Pissed off weren't the right words to describe myself.
