Magnolia Town- Friday
"Phew, I'm wiped. What a long mission" sighed Lucy as she and her partner, Natsu, walked down a cobblestone street towards her apartment.
"I guess" Natsu replied with his arms crossed behind his head while he walked side by side with Lucy. "But the pay was pretty good. 100,000 jewels each just to stop a guy from swindling townsfolk. Talk about easy money" continued the pinkette with a grin to which Lucy just sweatdropped.
"Yeah, maybe for a monster like you. Seriously you destroyed like three buildings when you sent the guy flying. You've got to learn how to hold back" scolded the blonde as she stopped in front of her door and reached into her pocket trying to find her apartment key.
"Aw Lucy, I'm not a monster. That's mean" whined Natsu childishly.
"Oh shit, what's the date" asked Lucy quickly as she remembered she had to pay her rent soon. She had to make sure she kept a close watch over her money until then so she'd have enough for her rent and living expenses. It was either that or she'd have to go on another town destroying mission with her hot-headed partner. Not that she would mind but man was it tiring.
"This Saturday" said Natsu nonchalantly while looking away towards the canal that ran through the city. Lucy turned to face him and blinked in surprise as she noticed his strange antics.
"What?" asked the blonde mage still confused by what he'd meant.
"This Saturday. That's when our date is" said Natsu after turning to face the blonde with a small smile and a slight blush.
"Tha. that….that's not….wha..what I meant" stuttered Lucy in embarrassment as her face became redder than her friends Ezra's scarlet hair before looking down at her feet. She kept her eyes there for a few seconds before looking up to see if her friend was joking or not. When she noticed he wasn't and still looked determined, she couldn't help but smile at him.
"Well Levy and I are going to the next town over to meet one of our favorite authors for a book signing on Saturday" said Lucy to a now slightly disappointed Natsu.
"It's okay Lucy. No biggy" said Natsu trying not to seem too upset. "Of course she'd reject me. We're just friends after all. God why am I so stupid" thought the pinkette as he went to walk away.
He was stopped short, however, when he felt a pair of slender arms wrap around him, halting his step. When his mind stopped racing, he realized they belonged to Lucy.
"You're amazing, Natsu. I'm sorry I'm busy Saturday but let's reschedule. I'd love to go on a date with you" spoke the blonde in a hushed voice as she pulled away to look at her partner. She couldn't help but giggle at the goofy expression on his face.
"Yeah sure! Let me know when, Lucy and I'll take you out" the mage celebrated internally, happy that he wasn't actually rejected.
"Ok, great. See you later then Natsu" replied the smiling blonde beauty as she retreated into her house leaving Natsu with the same goofy grin.
"I should have done that sooner" thought Fairy Tail's Salamander before running off towards the guild so he could tell his companion and friend Happy. "Who knows, maybe Happy finally got a date with Carla too. Why else would he leave to the guild right after a mission?" "This is gunna be great!" cheered the teen jumping in the air with a fist pump, and imagining how their date was going to turn out.
