It Doesn't Matter || Sting Eucliffe Love Story (Book 1)

~ Chapter 6: Pose off to the wedding ~

"Wardrobe Change: School Swimsuits!"

Akiko blinked, looking at the blue one piece she was now wearing. She raised an eyebrow, she muttered "Interesting choice, Chapati."

Her hair was down, and a ribbon was wrapped around her wrist like a band. The way she looked almost had no difference in how she looked with her hair up, almost. There was some, but not that much.

Either way, she posed, just because she didn't want to disappoint her fans.

"And now! Bikini and thigh highs!"

Akiko posed once more, seemingly to not really care about this.

"Who likes girls in glasses?"

The black-haired female pushed up her 'glasses,' taking on a cute, professional look.

"Cat ears!"

"Mrow," she mewed, laying down on the ground like a lazy kitten that can't be bothered to get up. She actually looked like she could fall asleep any minute.

"Bondage Gear!"

Akiko cracked her whip, her eyes having a seductive, cold look on her face. She wore a very, revealing bondage outfit. She wore tight, bike shorts with black denim shorts on top with a white crop top to go with it - which looked more like two cloths crossing over each other than anything else. "Why are these outfits getting skimpier?" She mumbles to herself.

Shiro yawns, before saying "I'm surprised you're even bothering to do this," she rolled her eyes.

"Wow, so much faith in me. Tch, making me do all the climbing, some partner," she muttered.

"How about a blushing bride challenge?" Chapati asks. "So ladies grab a lucky guy and squeeze into some wedding dresses!"

She twirled around as she wore a beautiful, light blue gown. It had small frills on it, but not too much that it made it look too fancy. Simple yet not too simple for people's taste. It was just right. Her hair was down also, her ribbon wrapped around her wrist while a light blue veil accompanied her loose, long hair.

"Now, aren't you beautiful?" A voice said from behind her, a hand snaking around her waist and pulling her into someone.

She glanced behind her to meet a familiar blue eyes. Those eyes... They're... Beautiful... But, who is he?

Tick...

Tock...

Tick...

Tock...

Ding! She lifted her chin up, saying "You're Sting Eucliffe of Sabertooth, right?"

The blonde haired dragon grinned, slightly taken back that she took so long to remember, but quite happy that she at least had some idea who he was. He said "I'm glad my reputation has exceeded to you, Ice Serpent," she shook her head.

"Call me Akiko," she stated. "Besides, it's hard not to realise who you are - you're quite famous, heard your name quite a lot during my travels."

He raised an eyebrow. "You travel?"

"Hmm," she nodded. "Many, S Class wizard jobs take a long time and require lots of travelling. Sometimes I travel for fun, but it's rare."

"I see," he said, before looking at her snake. "So, this is Shiro, I presume?"

She nodded, lifting up a finger and gently tapping the snake's head. Shiro shifted slightly around her neck, before lifting up his head tiredly. He asks, yawning "You need something, Akiko?"

She shook her head, and pointed at Sting. "Say hi," she said.

"Are you seriously talking to a Sabertooth member?" Shiro asks, sighing. "You never learn, do you?"

Sting didn't like the snake's attitude. Akiko replied "Don't need to. Besides, I don't see the problem with talking to a Saber, he's talking to a Fairy after all."

She does have a point, Sting thought to himself. Wait, she's a Fairy Tail member? He asks "You're a Fairy Tail member?"

"Yeah, somewhat," she said, a smirk coming to her lips. "Don't tell me you became my partner not knowing that."

He blushed, and denied "No!"

"Too quick to answer," she said, a giggle rising to her lips. "Such a bad liar," Sting blushed even harder, he looked away from her, embarrassed.

"Don't flirt with the enemy!" Shiro pointed out.

Akiko was about to retort his words, until someone cut her off yelling "Akiko! What are you doing with a Saber Tooth member? He's the enemy!" The voice belonged to Natsu.

The black-haired female shrugged, "Needed a partner and he offered.. I suppose," she frowned. "Well, I think that's how it went..."

Her mind started to wander as she started to think about what was going on. Sting chuckled at her cuteness, he would've placed his head on her shoulder if not for a certain snake hissing at him.

"Let her go!"

Sting stuck out his tongue. "Make me, snake," he remarked, annoying the snake.

Shiro hissed "Fine by me!"

He was about to attack the blonde dragon slayer, but Natsu had already beaten him to it. The two dragon slayers began to argue, joined by Gajeel and many other men. All the fighting snapped her out of her thoughts.

"What's this? Is there a brawl going on between Fairy Tail and Sabertooth? Over the Ice Serpent, Akiko?"

Akiko sighs, before saying "Guys, cut it out. Please."

They didn't stop, and it was ticking her off. Just as she was about to scold them, the bell rang and the men stopped, finding that the wedding was over and returned to their respective setas. Sting gave Akiko one last glance, catching her eyes. He smirked and gave her a wink, a slight blush came to her cheeks which caused her to divert her eyes. His smirk widened, satisfied that he got her to blush before returning to his team's booth.

"And now that the wedding is over! Let's go back to another swimsuit round!"

However, before the 'fun' could continue. Oba from Lamia Scale crashed the party, making everyone lose their mojo and return to their respective guilds. After the little circus, Jenny had made a bet with Mirajane. Claiming that the loser would have to pose for Sorcerer Weekly absolutely nude. The white-haired female pulled a few strings and beat Jenny in a proper fight using one of her satan soul, Sitri.

Akiko sat at the stands, trying to calm herself down. Shiro asks "Is something wrong, Akiko?"

She shook her head, replying "No. Just thinking."

His eyes... They were so blue, like the sky and sea.

I want to see them again.
