“Today was exhuasting…” I mumbled to myself, dropping down low into the bath water and blowing bubbles into the water. The medium sized tub overflowed, splashing water onto the towels I set on the outer rim of the tub to soak up the water.
This was normal for me, I kept the water running to keep the bath warm and as a result always had a mess to clean up – but I didn’t mind. For the ten minutes a day I spent in the bath, it was well worth the effort to clean up.
I stood up, letting the water run off my body before stepping out onto the towels and wrapping myself up in a dry one. The tub made a sucking noise as I pulled the plug, letting the water drain out of it slowly while I watched it, mesmerized by the bubbles making their way around the drain before slipping in.
Wrapping a towel around my wet hair, I sighed contently and made my way to my room, flinching as the cold air hit me. I plopped down on the bed and began furiously rubbing at my hair with a towel, causing the blue strands to puff up, making me look like a freakin’ poodle.
I sighed again, falling back onto my bed and going over what happened today in my head… In order to pay my rent each month, I took requests from guilds world-wide regarding medical issues. My job wasn’t to ask questions, it was to do what I was paid to do and leave, and sometimes it got to you.
A knock on my front door broke me from my thoughts, making me realize I was still in just a towel on my bed. I grabbed my jacket off the top of the laundry basket I kept next to my dresser since I was too lazy to put my clothes away after I got them from the dryer.
The black leather jacket slipped on comfortably, the end of it brushing up against the carpeted floor, the collar covering my mouth and nose comfortably. While impractical in most situations, a high collar kept others from seeing my facial expressions while I healed them, because sometimes I couldn’t help but gag at the various cuts and bruises on a person.
I ran a brush through my puffed up hair quickly, putting it into a high ponytail and scurrying off to the front door to see who was there. I caught a glimpse of my jacket in the mirror, realizing I’d forgotten to put on an undershirt to cover the two large cut out part of the jacket at my waist.
I always thought regular jackets were so boring. Shaking my head I continued to walk towards the door, hearing the knocking grow more frantic as I walked.
“Yeah, yeah – I hear you.” The knocks stopped, but person outside started talking to himself in a tone that made me walk a bit faster to the door. It sounded… of, and it had to be urgent to interrupt me at my home instead of sending a letter like every else did. “What is it?” I asked, swinging open the door.
“I need help.” The man stated, holding his side. His hand was covered in blood and his body itself was rather torn up. I stepped to the side to let him in, watching him wobble past me into the house and wait for me to shut the door and guide him to the living room.
“Sit,” I signaled for him to sit down on the couch and walked off to my bathroom to grab a few towels to soak up the blood. He took the towel from me gratefully, wiping off his arms and setting the towel clean side up on the couch to keep it clean. “Heh, thanks for that.” He gave me a weak smile. “What’s your name?” I asked, running my hand over his arm to assess the damage.
“Natsu,” The name sounded familiar, but honestly I worked with so many popular mages it was hard to tell them apart sometimes. “I’m from Fairy Tail.” He stated proudly, holding out his arm to show me the Fairy Tail marking on his shoulder, wincing as he did.
