"Hey guys, where's Natsu?"
Lucy, Erza, a blue-haired girl I recognized as Levy, and a passed out Freed shrug.
"Hey, I'm Levy. I hear you're the new member of Fairy Tail?" Levy instigates sweetly, her pretty face blessed with a smile.
She had cute features; as small nose, wavy tendrils, and wore bright colors. The girl had a huge book in front of her- and several to her side, stacked. Next to her, Lucy was absorbed into her phone.
"Just temporary," I shrug. "(y/n), nice to meet you!"
"It's great to meet you too!"
I seat myself on one of the wooden chairs, now covered with brand new, hand knitted green mats. You could see the hard work put into it, the strings and fringe made by diligent human hands.
Mira comes up behind me, sliding a bowl of fruit in my line of vision. Raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries, mingled around with shaved ice. Next to it parks freshly-squeezed pineapple juice.
"Wow! Thank you Mira! I see more fruit is coming on the breakfast menu?" I smile happily, unable to restrain the cheerful swinging of my legs under the table.
"That's right!" she beams. "a healthy breakfast is a well nourished breakfast!"
"I couldn't agree more," a ravenette adds, taking a seat in front of me. He was already shirtless- I was told he unconsciously takes his clothes off- and munching on a fruit popsicle.
"Now, Gray, don't you start acting all high and mighty. I saw the glazed donuts you bought yesterday," Mira accused, but humor was still present in her voice.
And then something clashed against our table.
The wood shuddered, and I looked down to see a cursing Natsu come to his feet.
There were bags under his eyes- he was sweating buckets, down his temples and biceps. He had a wild look in his eyes, like an antelope trying to catch the view of the prowling lion. His pink hair was disheveled, shirt-inside out.
"Dude, what happened to you?" Gray asks in disbelief.
Natsu takes one look at Gray, let's out a scream, and scrambles away from him.
He ducks under the table, attaching himself to my legs.
We try to ignore the frightened Natsu.
"Have we introduced you to Juvia yet, (y/n)?" Levy brings up.
A shriek under the table.
"Now now, Natsu, where has your manly pride gone?" Erza rumbles.
His hold on my legs become stronger. I feel goosebumps appear on my skin as his cheek presses against my bare skin- locks tenderly brushing against them. And damn, really soft hair for a guy that takes daily trips through the ocean.
