CHAPTER #10
1876 Words
Hello, world! Finally, the most awaited day has come. I can finally take my day-off and for sure that my pretty fingernails, toes and my pretty brain will be rest. Today is Sunday so meaning we don't have an office but... -_-
Of course, what do you expect to that Alien? As usual, he doesn't know what's the real meaning of the word 'day-off'. I shook my head and made a mental note that I'll give him a book that will give him a better meaning of 'day-off'
I smile from ear to ear when I'm done putting nail polish and it's really beautiful like my face. I heard the door open but I couldn't give attention since I'm busy doing my nail polish. And when I'm concentrating here. No one is allowed to disturb me.
I look to my phone when it suddenly rung; it's not a call or text message. It's a reminder so I check it out; only to find out that; today was Juvia Lockser birthday. I grin when I open the video camera of my phone.
"HEY YOW! Happy Birthday, Juvia? What kind of gift that Gray gives to you? Hey, normal citizens of Earth. Greet the future bride of Gray. BYEEEE! Happy Birthday again, and please if you're going to make a party invite me right now. As in now."
I send that on all the email of our friends and not just a seconds my friends are texting me saying how loud I am, and Gray texted me that 'I'm sure that I'll marry her, but how about you? Are you going to marry your Natsu'.
I pouted on Gray texted message. Why would I marry that Natsu Dragneel, though, it's a wonderful thought---- O______O
Erase! Erase! Erase!
Don't think like that Lucy. As in that's bad.
I frowned when I heard my voice. So I followed it only to found out that Natsu was on the terrace and he was watching the video that I made. But that's not what gets my attention...
I saw pictures of a woman on his laptop. He turns his head on mine when he felt that someone was looking on him. And as soon as our eyes meet, he instantly closes his laptop. I don't know why but... I felt hurt.
I tried to smile then wave my hands on him. I can't leave right now because for sure he'll be known that I saw it. I swallowed and slowly walked on him then grab his juice and drink it.
"Boss, Sir! what are you doing here?" - me.
"I was enjoying the peace."
"Pssh..." rolling my eyes on him "Then enjoy." I put another fake smile on my face before I turn my heels and leave him there. I went to my fridge and get some water for me. I need to relax. It always like this... every time I saw him looking on her... every time I saw him sad and lonely because of...
...
...
Lisanna.
I don't know why I felt hurt whenever I saw him like that. Like, it's not really my concern so why would I be like this. Maybe, I'm acting like this because I'd know him for a long time ago or maybe because I'm attracted to him.
It always... be... Lisanna. Everything is for Lisanna. Lisanna like this, or Lisanna like that.
Natsu can even bet his life just to make sure that he'll be with that Lisanna. But what that woman does to him? Urgh!
I run my fingers on my hair. "Urgh! Relax Lucy... relax. Okay? It's not of your concern. What will you get if you mess on his life? If he wants to live in a sad life then be it. You're not his mother to be a concern on him, Lucy." I say to myself.
I can't be hurt because he gets hurt. I can't be lonely because he was lonely for Lisanna. I don't want to ask myself that...
...
...
Why it's hard to compete on someone who lives in your memories?
I don't want to ask that because to be honest, I don't want to compete with her. I don't want to compete when in the first place I know that I'm already lost at the beginning of the battle. I can't... these feelings should have remained like this. I can't love him because I know what will be the end.
I just end up getting hurt.
Why it's really hard to compete on someone who'll be always being the only one for him? Maybe because... if I did compete with her... she win this even though she doesn't make any effort to win.
I frown... so I shouldn't in love with that man because honestly... I don't want to compete and especially... I don't want to fall in love with him because I end up getting hurt.
I pouted and search for fruit; and when I saw it... I put it on the blender then put some ice on it. That's right... I need this shake to calm my nerves.
"Can I have one?" I heard him say.
I didn't say anything but I get two glasses and put the apple shake that I made. I sat down on the high Stoll while Him; he sat down across on my chair.
"Problem." - Natsu. I shook my head. "Hmm.. really?"
"I don't have a problem. I'm just thinking about how can I go to Mars for free. Would you let me some money."
"No."
I rolled my eyes. As expected to him, he doesn't have a sense of humor. "Pssh.," I say then leave him there and went to living area and open my flat screen t.v. What should I watch now? I stroll in the different channels but I couldn't find the best channel for me.
"Urgh! What the hell is wrong on this day? Is there any x-rated movie to make my nerves alive?" I say to myself.
"Why do you want to watch an X-rated movie?"
I scream. I look on my behind only to find out that Natsu was watching me; he raises his brow on me. Before, he sat down right next to me. I put some pillow between us. "It's a joke."
"You're joking on yourself."
"Yep... If you're talented you can joke on yourself."
"I think that's what you called 'crazy'"
"No."
"What's wrong with you right now? Do you have a period?"
I blush and hit his arm "Of course not. I'm just pregnant."
He didn't say anything.. I mentally rolled my eyes. My eyes got widen when he suddenly tilt my head making me look on his face. His face was dark like he was ready to kill someone. "What?"
"Since when?"
"huh?"
"No.. nevermind that.. who? who's the father of your child?"
What? Did he really believe on that? I really need to bring him on Juvia to check him. "Umm... Jellal" - me.
"What? How? When? Why I didn't know about that? We've been together and I'm pretty sure that he couldn't come here in your house? Or you're secretly met up on my back?"
My mouth dropped on the ground on what he said. His crazy -_-
"You're not making sense, you know?"
"Did he will accept the child? How about you?"
I rolled my eyes "Yes, he will accept this. He even said that he'll marry me."
"WHAT?"
He was about to stand up when I hold his hand. Right, I shouldn't say something like that to him because for sure he'll take that as serious. "It's a joke, you dummy," I say.
"You mean---"
"Of course I'm not pregnant Duh! You know you should go to the hospital. I think there's something wrong with your brain."
"Don't joke around like that!"
"It's a joke. J-O-K-E" I sigh and I turn my head to the television. I really need some space with him, because if not then I'll be an alien like him.
"Lucy."
"What?"
"Do you like Jellal?"
"no." What the hell is he thinking? If I like Jellal then all the JeRza fanatic will kill me right away -___-
"Then who would you like?"
"Gray Fullbuster." There's an awkward silent surround us. So when I turned my head to see his reaction. "What?" - me
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN 'GRAY FULLBUSTER'?" aww my poor ear.
"It's a joke."
"Lucy Heartfilia" he warns me.
"Fine.. I don't like someone else. If I did like someone it's not really your concern." he didn't say anything but I cried on pain when he pinches the side of my cheeks really hard "Ouch! Urgh! If you're not my Boss then I swear to my apple shake that I will throw you out of my window."
"You can't do that."
"I can."
"You can't"
"I can."
"You can't"
"I can."
"You can't"
"I can."
"You can't"
I want to kill this alien now, but I think I had a better idea on how will I revenge on him. I smile on him sweetly then crawl on him, I bite my lower lips as I look on his eyes then down to his lips. I run my fingers on his cheeks... he's eyes darken but I ignore it. My fingers went to his neck... down to his chest.
I crawled seductively... smiling at him. I saw him swallowed when I pulled his collar down. I smile on him then buried my face on his neck..
Kiss him there?
Lick?
...
...
No, I bite him there... Hard.
"AW-AW-AW! It hurts" he cried for pain.
I smile ear to ear then stand out making space between us. "So, what now Natsu Dragneel" I challenge, grinning back at him. He smiles at me... and my eyes got widen when I saw something on his eyes. "You're going to have to catch me first."
His eyes widen a fraction, and he grins, slowly getting to his feet. "Came back here, you little witch."
"No." The breakfast bar is between us. I have never been so grateful for its existence than at this moment.
"You can't catch me, Dragneel. "I tease him. "After all, I'm always better than you." He continues to move toward his left, as do I.
"come here." His eyes blaze, and wild anticipation emanates from him.
"I'm quite fast you know." I try for nonchalance.
"So am I."
He's stalking me, in his own kitchen. "Are you going to come quietly?" he asks.
"Do I ever?"
Suddenly, he lunges for me, making me squeal and run for the dining room table. I manage to escape, putting the table between us. My heart is pounding and adrenaline has spiked through my body... boy... this is so thrilling. I'm a child again, though that's not right. I watch him carefully as he paces deliberately toward me. I inch away.
My eyes got widen when he suddenly grabbed my arms and throw me on the bed then pin me there with his own weight. I tried to move him out but I can't. "Now... my turn," he says.
"What? Are you going to bite me?"
"No."
"Then what?"
"Isn't obvious?
...
...
...
I want to kiss you."
