Hi Everyone!

Jellal is back with a new one-shot story.

I hope you wouldn't mind reviewing this story after reading it.

And pardon my wrong grammars! I'm not really good at it, so if I made mistakes, I hope you forgive me! (Plus if the characters out of character, I'm really sorry nya~)

Oh yeah, and Fairy Tail isn't mine. It's Hiro Mashima's. But this story is mine!

Oh yeah, and it's a translated fict. I'm too lazy to read it all over again to check whether I got something wrong like grammar mistakes or not. And I need to find a nice beta-read to read my story. I made it slightly different from the original so yeah~

Hope you enjoy reading.

Jellal.

Enjoy

Lucy bit her lips. She gazed at the people who danced along the music. She knew that today is the day where they have Lisanna's welcome back party. For her, Lisanna is fine. She was nice at first, but she wouldn't know her true attitude later, right? Her eyes were blue—she resembles Mirajane's eyes. She liked it. Lucy shook her head. Why the heck am I thinking about it? She thought. She didn't know why, she was bored. This isn't like the previous Fairy Tail's party. She felt—tired. There's nothing she wanted to do. As a result, she was sitting there alone, on a long table's chair. She has a glass of Sherry with her. Wondering where's Levy McGarden? She was laughing with Lisanna Strauss there. She surely looked happy, Lucy admitted. It's not like she's jealous of Lisanna. She told Levy that she hoped that girl wouldn't dump her after Lisanna's appearance. Levy agreed and calmed her down.

Cana Alberona, as usual she was laughing with her alcohol. No, not barrel. She was holding an exclusive wine glass. She looked calm today. And she was wearing a beautiful short dress with peach color. Her lips were red and she has the most beautiful smile this night. All the boys there asked her for a dance, but she denied. Lucy asked herself many times that night, why would Cana dressed so beautifully?

That beautiful blond haired girl couldn't find the mage with scarlet haired. She wondered, because she knew that Erza Scarlet is a friend of Lisanna Strauss. She coughed. Lucy felt dizzy somehow. Some one tapped her back.

"Mi-Mira-san?" Lucy was surprised when she saw a silver haired girl smiled gently at her. She stroked Lucy's blonde hair.

"Lucy, you're drunk. It's the best for you if you walk home now." Mirajane was concerned about the heir of Heartfilia. Lucy laughed a little. She appreciate it, but she didn't want to go home that fast.

She denied, "I'm alright, Mira-san. Noth-hik-Nothing to be worried," Lucy waved her hands. Mirajane exhaled and walked behind the guild's long table.

The Celestial mage asked, "Why are you here, Mira-san? I thought you were with Lisanna-san?" Lucy smiled bitterly.

Mirajane shrugged. "Yeah, I don't feel like it," she answered plainly. Lucy knew that wasn't the true answer, so she raised her eyebrows.

"Don't lie to me, Mira-san. I don't like it," Lucy said bluntly. She stared at the people that danced happily.

The silver haired girl announced, "You too, Lucy. Why didn't you dance with Natsu?" She began to wipe some of dirty glasses. Lucy realized it immediately. Mirajane was right. Why she is here? Why didn't Lucy walk to the dance floor and dance with the fire dragon slayer? Something stuck in her throat.

"I don't know," Lucy answered honestly. "I prefer Natsu spend his time with Lisanna-san. They used to be very close, right?" Lucy touched her glass to drink some more when Mirajane glared at her.

She shook her head. "No more alcohol, Lucy. Enough."

Lucy's brown eyes met Mirajane's blue eyes. "Why?"

Mirajane smiled sadly. "I want to ask this to you directly Lucy. This is important. You like Natsu, don't you?" Lucy was confused. Like? She—Lucy Heartfilia like Natsu? What a joke. She never like a boy before. For her, she needs more time to considerate that.

Lucy raised an eyebrow. "Like? I like Natsu—he's a good friend," Lucy answered honestly. She has to realize that Natsu look at her as a friend. Liking Natsu is a big mistake for her—especially when Lisanna is here now.

"I have no idea that you would be so stupid about love, Lucy," the scarlet head girl spoke. The S-Class wizard sited beside the celestial mage. Mirajane gave a strawberry cake instantly.

Lucy cut her words. "It's a waste of time liking that stupid dragon slayer," Lucy smirked. She grabbed a glass of juice and drank it.

Erza glared at Lucy. "Why it's a waste of time? Tell me, Lucy?" The girl with light blonde hair shook her head. She raised her hand.

"Natsu—" Lucy pointed at Natsu that was laughing. His face reddened and his hair was so messy. "Is Lisanna's." Lucy twinkled. She munched the cookies on the table. Erza and Mirajane exchanged a worried look.

The knight mage whispered, "Did Natsu drink alcohol, Mira?" Erza whispered to Mirajane. Mirajane nodded as she embraced a brown tray.

"That's why I'm worried of Lucy. I'm so worried," Mirajane muttered. Erza could hear a scared voice came from Mirajane as she said that. The scarlet haired girl nodded in agreement.

"If Natsu like your sister, he could kick Lucy out from the team," The requip mage swallowed her cake.

Mirajane murmured, "And when that time come, you'll be there to make a new team with Lucy, Erza!" She exclaimed softly. Once more, Erza agreed.

"I will beat Natsu down before that. I will never accept the fact that he will kick Lucy out. What the hell is he thinking? Well—that's 'if'. We're not sure yet, aren't we?" Erza explained. "If Natsu is drunk, all the things that he kept inside his heart will blurt out. If his feeling to Lucy is a feeling from a friend to another—"

The maid nodded, "He will explained it bluntly and clearly," Mirajane finished Erza's sentence.

"What are you guys talking about?" Lucy asked happily. She tilted her head. Erza and Mirajane was shocked and tried to cover their conversation.

"Master asked us to do some S Class mission," Mirajane replied quickly. Lucy nodded with jealousy.

Erza and Mira could see her face turned out to be sad. "You guys are so strong. You're so different from me. I'm weak. If just I'm as strong as you guys, it'll be fun, isn't?" Lucy laughed freely. Mirajane glanced at Erza. Erza shooked her head. Natsu was so close with Lisanna. It looked like they have something to discuss.

"Erza? Mira-san? Why are you guys so quiet?" Lucy was confused. She exchanged look between Erza and Mira.

Erza couldn't reply. Mira just stood there without saying anything. They were thinking about how to kept Lucy's feeling safe if Natsu like Lisanna. If Natsu didn't like Lucy, he will blurted it out blunt and roughly. Lucy's heart will broke and they will never let that happened.

"What the hell guys?" Lucy pouted and started to drink her juice. Mirajane sighed as Wendy Marvell came.

Lucy started to blurt out when she came, "Wendy? Why are you here? You're too small!" Lucy commented. Wendy widened her eyes. Lucy always trusts Wendy and looked at her as a grown-up and mature enough to decide something by her self. And why did she say that? Erza worked her brain as fast as she can. If Lucy is the same as Natsu, blurt anything out if they're drunk, it's dangerous!

"I'm looking for Charle," Wendy said hesitantly and started to look for the exceed. Lucy nodded. Mirajane bit her lips when she saw Lisanna ran to Mirajane. She looked happy as ever.

Lisanna exclaimed, "Mira-nee! I want wine!" She took a glass of wine quickly when Mirajane served it. Lisanna dropped a precious necklace given by Mirajane.

"How careless. This thing was given by Mira-san. I will return this," Lucy stood up and grabbed the necklace. She ran to Lisanna. Oh no. Natsu was with her and they will confess about what they feel about each other. Erza shivered.

"Lisanna, this is yours," Lucy gave her necklace. She carelessly bumped into Natsu. They exchanged look each other.

"Ah, Lucy-san! I want to ask Natsu if I can join your team. But a team with 6 people is too much. Because you're the urm…,"

"Weakest," Lucy cut. "I know. Don't be such a sweet jerk, Lisanna. You're fun to be with, but when you want something, you're as annoying as hell," Lucy hissed honestly. Lisanna was shocked. Natsu could hear it and he was surprised.

"Don't say that to Lisanna, stupid!" Natsu exclaimed. Then he turned her head around at Lisanna. "What do you mean? You, inside my team?" Natsu raised her eyebrows.

"Yes! As Lucy's replacement, of course," Lisanna said bravely, because Lucy mocked her before. Mirajane and Erza came along and saw Natsu grinned. They could feel fire burning around Natsu. Lisanna was happy, she thought that Natsu accepted her. Both S-Class mage think the same. And Lucy, she could feel her tears on her cheek. Why? Lucy turned her body and decided to go home.

Lisanna hugged Natsu. "Yeay! Thanks, Natsu," she said happily. But Natsu didn't care and held Lucy's wrist.

"There's no one can replace Lucy in team, 'ya know, Lisanna!?" Natsu grinned. Lucy felt that Natsu's face was too close. Natsu hugged her. "If Lucy is not in my team, I can't protect her. It's obvious that Lucy is the only one I wanted to protect." Natsu announced proudly.

Lucy couldn't stand it. She bursted into tears and hugged the dragon slayer. "Yes, Natsu," she whispered. "You're the one I wanted to prove that I'm useful enough to protect you with my life—"

They hugged each other before they passed out.


A/N : Oh my God! Pardon my wrong grammar and stuffs, I'm not really good with it! (And yet I'm still making this stupid story, I'm so sorry!)
