Benefits With My Butler [NaLu:Fairytail Fanfiction]

CHAPTER #13

LUCY's POV

A FROWNED embedded into my face as I look at him. I blew thru my mouth before I look at the entire place – everyone is busy doing their task and here I am – looking at him – like he turned into a freaking mushroom, "Do we really need to do this shit?" I murmur under my breath but enough for him to hear.

Natsu took a glance on me – and I pouted my lips "This is part of the activity, Vanilla" he said like that's the only thing I need to hear in order for me to do my part.

"It doesn't make sense!" I said crossing my arms below my breast. I don't know why we need to learned on making a cupcake. I mean, we have maids or I have money to buy a cupcake if I wanted too. I felt Natsu's intense gaze on me "What?" I asked him innocently but my frowned never leave my face.

"Vanilla" he started "Come here" I roll my eyes before I stood up on my chair and walk towards him – he smile softly before he pass to me the I don't know what's it called then stood behind me as he guide me on mixing all the ingredients "Making cupcake is fun, Vanilla"

Fun my ass -_- I heard him chuckle but I remain myself mute "You know... I would like to taste your cupcake"

C-Cupcake? My cupcake? I blush furiously as I remember what happened on my room three days ago. We almost do that 'thing'. And he says he wants to taste my cupcake? Does he mean he want to taste my umm...

My sentiment was cut off short when I heard him chuckle which makes me blush even more. Damn, curse my dirty mind! "W-What?" I says.

I felt his finger playing the tip of my hair which makes me blush even more – I saw his lips twisted into an impish smile "What are you thinking, Vanilla?" he says before he rest his chin over my shoulder. I bit my lower lips and shook my head, his left hand gently snake on my tummy which makes me blush even more "Really? You're not going to share it with me?"

I open my mouth to say something but eventually close it when my own words vanished in my throat. I clear my throat "What should I do next?" I say trying to change our conversation. He instructed me on what should I do next. Natsu remain on my back – again, I should chastise him for being too comfortable with me but for some reason, I couldn't find the strength to push him away for me.

I smile, as I remember our first meeting – it was truly disaster. I hate everything about him before but here I am letting this man besides me to get near and step my personal space.

"Vanilla?" he called me – I look at him quizzically "What are you thinking? I've been dying to know what you are thinking" he said pouting.

"Why you need to know?" I said trying my best not smile in front of him.

"Because it's making you blush and smile!" he said making my eyes grew wider – shock is visible on my face as I held his gaze. Natsu cup my face and stare me intensely "Tell me, please"

"I was thinking the first time I saw you," I says which makes his eyes grew wider "I just realize how much I hate you—"

I couldn't finished my own words when I saw how his jaw tightened and his eyes – I couldn't decipher the emotion I'd see there "You hate me?" he says. I nodded and open my mouth to say but he continue "Then why did you asked me to stay with you?"

"Natsu... I'm—"

"You hate me that much, huh" he stood up there behind me and it feels like he was too far for my reach. My heart clench as I held his gaze "Then how could I keep my promise you, if you hate me?"
