The Dragon and The Princess

Chapter 27

•Lucy's POV•

Mira swung open the kitchen door open and sprinted in, dragging Natsu and I in with her, Laxus trailing behind us. Mira stopped abruptly in her path when a sword was thrown at her feet. Mira didn't flinch one bit, and neither did Laxus. Natsu and I on the other hand screamed and hid behind Mirajane.

"What brings you here devil woman?" Erza mumbled as she shoved some cake in her mouth. I couldn't believe my eyes when I set them on Erza. Erza was sitting there with a deathly aura around her, but then she had five different cakes surrounding her.

Mira chuckled as she let go of our wrists and sat herself next to Erza. Erza started to make choking noises as tried to swallow the cake that she just bit into. Erza sent a glare over towards Mira, and Mira did the same.

"Oh just coming here see you." Mira cackled evilly as she started to pull on Erza's already full cheeks. Erza grunted as she began to pinch Mira's cheeks as well. I felt as if I'm watching Natsu and Gray fight, which makes my brain go all stupid watching those two idiots. Erza and Mira started to pull tighter and harder on the each other's cheeks.

"What the heck are you two doing?" I asked in astonishment. I've never seen Erza act this way before, she's acting so... childish. I'm sorry Erza, but that's mine and Natsu's job! They obviously know each other, but do they hate one another?

"Oh we are just being friendly." Mira said sweetly. Erza let go of Mira's cheeks which left a little bit of a bruise on her cheeks. Mira quickly took her hands away from Erza's face and began to rub her sore ones. Laxus rolled his eyes as he sat next to Mirajane.

"Usually I don't care what's going on and all but," Natsu sighed. "How do you two know each other?" I was kind that surprised Natsu would even care, Natsu usually hates listening to other people talk. Erza shoved another piece of cake into her mouth as she eyed Mira carefully.

"You two might want to sit down for this." Laxus sighed. Mira smiled as she pulled Laxus into the vacant seat next to her.

"Well do you want to know how me and Erza know each other, or," Mira took a breath. "Me and Lucy?" Natsu started to hum, he usually does this when he's thinking. Natsu then stopped humming and snapped his fingers.

"I want to hear about you two beast women!" Natsu exclaimed as he pointed over to Mira and Erza. Erza raised an eyebrow and so did Mira, did Natsu have a death wish?

"Chose your words carefully Pinky." Erza growled. Natsu scooted his chair closer to me as he put an arm around my waist. Natsu was sweating bullets, he must really fear Erza. Erza cut another piece of cake and set it on her plate.

"We are rivals." Erza smiled as she popped another piece of cake into her mouth. Mira nodded her head as she laid her head on Laxus's shoulder. What kind of rivals? I don't think it would be rivals in love considering Erza loves Jellal, and I think Mira and Laxus are a thing. I'm not quite sure though, she did call him her hubbie. What in the world even is a hubbie?

"Rivals in cake baking?" I asked. I was only joking but I don't like the way Erza had a glint in her eye. It was like she had some type of idea, never is it good when Erza has a glint in her eye.

"As funny as that is you are wrong," Erza chomped down on her second piece of cake. "We are both swordsmen." Natsu looked over to Mira and then to Erza, then back to Mira. I also did the same. Laxus started to laugh as he looked at us.

"Mira might not look like it but," Laxus shivered. "She is truly demon." Mira giggled as she lightly punched Laxus arm. Erza nodded as she cut another piece of cake and began to chomp on it. Erza really does love her cake, where did she even get this much cake?
