One Day

The Dragneels

    This was it, the day I'm heading to the Dragneel estate.  I made myself look presentable, a simple blue dress that's not too elegant.  I finished up my make-up and tied my hair up in a braided bun.  I had already called Igneel asking him to talk, I hope my fathers proud.  Even if it's not what I want to do with my life.

     Capricorn popped out of no where asking if I was ready to leave.  I looked myself over in the mirror before takeing his arm.  We walked car and Capricorn started to drive I started having second thoughts.  Would he even be a good husband?  It's too late to turn back now.  My breathe hitched as we pulled up to the estate.  I took one last deep breathe and got out of the car.

    The house was beautiful, it took my breathe away.  It had red shillings and a fountain with flowers surrounding.   it up front and center.  We had flowers around my house as well, but they weren't taken care of after my mother died.  Seeing a garden like this brought back memories of playing around in them with my mother.  I looked up at the house and started walking towards the steps.  It wasn't the biggest house so it felt very homey to me.

    I knocked on the door, capricorn behind me patiently waiting for someone to answer the door.  When the doors opened we were greeted not by a maid, but by another teenaged boy.  He had dark blue hair, almost black, raven I guess you could call it.  You could hear music blasting from a different part of the house, a party I presume.

   "Oh hello, are you here for Igneel?" this boy asked.
   "Yes, indeed I am, mind showing me where he is?" He let me and Capricorn step inside then pointed down the hall.
   "Third door on the left."  He then turned around and left.  That was werid, I walked to the door and knocked on the door.  I heard a faint come in from the other side of the door.

   I walked inside and sat down where he motioned me to sit.  He quickly apoligized for the greeting and noise.  I looked at Capricorn and he handed me the note.  Igneel looked at me curiously.
    "So you wanted to talk about?" Igneel questioned with some eagerness in his voice.
    "You knew my father, Jude Heartfillia correct?" Igneel quickly nodded as I continued, "You must have heard of his recent passing then.

    "Yes I had, my condolences." I thanked him and told him how I found the letter that was supposed to be mailed to him, all while staying professional and showing off my buissness skills.
    "So he wanted to marry you off to my only adoptive son? Couldn't say that it's surprising, but you agreed to this?"  I just looked at him with no facial expression.  Igneeled sighed and sat for a minute.
   "I accept."

Natsu Pov.

    I just texted the gang to meet at my place for no particular reason.  Dad said some woman was going to stop by to talk with him or something.  I didn't really listen, 'cause why should I? Shes not talking to me.  A knock on the door cut off my thoughts, I opened my door to see all my friends, Gray, Erza, Cana, Wendy, Lisanna, Romeo, Gajeel, Juvia, Mira, Levy, and Jellal.  We all attend Fairy Tail Secondary, a private school.  Known to be the best of the best around here.  Except Jellal, he's home schooled after he got expelled by his elementary school, don't ask how. 
   
     I motioned them all to come in and I started to play music on our stero system.  The group of them split up to different groups, some scavenging the kitchen while others broke into the beer cabinet *Cana.*  the majority of us got drunk including me except Wendy and Romeo 'cause they were too young.  Also Gray since he was the  designated driver.  Sucks for him!!!

     While we were in the middle of playing never have I ever we heard a knock at the door.

     "GRaYyyY go answeerrr it, it's prooobly the chick dad sad was comming."  Gray rolled his eyes at drunk Natsu and headed for the door.  "I woondeer if shes hooot."  As Gray left I chugged a bottle a beer and threw it at the wall.  I knew I'd regret it later but no swelling on the future! It's all about right now.

     My father keeps trying to get my life together, but what he doesn't umderstand is that I don't want the life he's setting up for me.  That's why I get drunk im the first place to try and forget all the pressure my dad os putting on me.  He wants me to learn how to run his buissness so I can take over and he can retire.  Talk about selfish much.  Why couldn't have adopted another kid that actually wanted to take his job?  Some days I just feel really lonely 'cause it doesn't actually feel like my dad is a dad.  That's why I want to marry Lisanna, she's kind and sweet and would be a great mother.  But I don't want to get married for awhile.
