"...It really is the First Master. A-Ahahaha... the world is spinning." Lucy said with a disbelieving laugh.
After all, it was Mavis, the First Master of Fairy Tail. If the other members of Fairy Tail found out about this, they would probably react just the same wasy as Lucy had. Makarov on the other hand might directly faint from the shock if he heard about it.
"You okay, Lucy?" Yuuki asked.
"I-I'm okay. It's just so surprising to find out that you, bad boy, even managed to seduce the First Master." Lucy was too speechless to even glare at Yuuki. Then, remembering Mavis's current state, she suddenly became curious and asked Yuuki about it.
"But Yuuki, isn't the First Master already..." Lucy said carefully, but she didn't finish her sentence, not wanting to hurt Yuuki's feelings.
Understanding what she was implying, Yuuki simply said. "Oh, that? You don't need to worry about it. Mavis is actually still alive."
"Eh? The First Master is actually still alive?! How is that possible?" Lucy exclaimed, stunned by Yuuki's sudden revelation. After all, Mavis had been around for centuries, making it almost impossible for her to still be alive. Plus, their Master even told them to find Mavis grave during Tenrou Jima exam.
Nevertheless, Yuuki explained Mavis's situation to Lucy, since they would be sisters from now on. However, he left out certain details, such as Lumen Histoire and Fairy Heart, as he felt it would be too much for Lucy to learn about at the moment.
"I see. That's good to know." Lucy sighed in relief after learning about Mavis's situation.
"You're not angry anymore?" Yuuki asked awkwardly.
"Hmph! What can I even do? I've already fallen for you, and I can't exactly stop you from pursuing another woman, right?" Lucy said, rolling her eyes at Yuuki, who could only laugh awkwardly.
Seeing her pout, Yuuki sat beside Lucy on the bed and wrapped his arms around her from behind, gently resting his chin on her shoulder as he tried to coax her.
"Thank you, Lucy. I love you."
Lucy's face slowly grew warm when she heard Yuuki suddenly utter those three words, and her emotions began to soften. She glanced back at Yuuki with moist eyes before quietly replying,
"I love you too, Yuuki..."
The two of them gazed into each other's eyes as their faces slowly drew closer. Only a few centimeters remained between them before their lips could meet.
But...
BAAM!
The door suddenly slammed open as Erza and the other girls entered the room.
"Yuuki, I heard you were here. I came to—ah!" Erza said, only to freeze with her mouth hanging open as she took in the scene before her.
"Why did you stop at the door, Erza-san? Eh? EHHHHH?!" Wendy asked after arriving at the room and noticing that Erza had suddenly frozen in place. However, she quickly followed Erza's gaze and also became stunned by the scene inside the room.
"Now, now... what are you all doing with my cute little brother?" Mirajane said as she entered and stared at Erza. Yet, the moment she saw what was happening inside, her expression froze as well.
The rest of the female members who had followed Erza also entered the room. Like the others, they also immediately stood rooted to the spot as their mouths hanging open in disbelief as they saw Yuuki and Lucy embracing each other and even looked like they were about to do something more intimate.
"Erm… yo, Erza, Mira-nee, Wendy, and the rest of you girls. Fancy seeing all of you here together… A-ahaha." Yuuki tried to play it cool, but it was impossible with the dark expression on Erza's and smiling look on Mirajane's faces.
They didn't know how Lucy somehow end up inside their guild since they haven't seen her all day, but it doesn't matter right now.
"E-Everyone, let me explain." Lucy's lips twitched as she looked at her friends, who had just caught her together so close to Yuuki that their faces were almost touching. Her back was drenched in cold sweat as she noticed the dark expressions on the faces of the two most intimidating women in Fairy Tail.
"A-Ahaha… Yuuki is dead." Laki laughed awkwardly.
"Awawawa! Yuuki-san and Lucy-san are k-k-k-kissing!" Wendy's face turned bright red.
"H-How shameless!" Carla exclaimed.
"Yuuki-nii…" Lisanna couldn't believe what she was seeing and gasped in surprise.
Meanwhile, Erza and Mirajane's expressions remained dark as the magic power within their bodies began to gather.
"Yuuki… Tell me, how do you want to die?" Erza cracked her knuckles as she slowly approached Yuuki step by step.
"Yuuki-kun… It's bad doing naughty things inside the guild." Mira said with a smile but somehow her expression look frightening.
Lucy also felt awkward, feeling somewhat wronged. However, she wisely chose not to argue, knowing just how terrifying Mirajane could be when she was angry.
On the other hand, Yuuki gulped and raised his hands defensively.
"W-Wait. Let me explain."
Even though Yuuki had grown incredibly powerful that the number of beings capable of fighting him could be counted on one hand. He still felt a chill run down his spine as he faced the two demonic women standing before him.
"What's there to explain?"
"Fufu… Prepare yourself, Yuuki-kun~"
"Eeek!"
BAAM! BAAM!
Lucy and the other girls could only tremble as they watched Yuuki being mercilessly beaten by the two scariest female mages in the guild. However, none of them dared to leave, since they also wanted to know what was going on.
Eventually, they all turned toward Lucy, their expressions was like asking for a juicy story.
Lucy could only give them a wry laugh, having absolutely no idea what to say.
After a few minutes of beating him up, Erza and Mirajane finally felt satisfied and allowed Yuuki to explain himself, leaving him momentarily speechless.
'You beat me up first, and now you want to hear my explanation?! Unbelievable.' Yuuki complained inwardly, but he wisely kept his thoughts to himself. He had no intention of provoking the two girls and give himself another beating.
With no other choice, Yuuki told everything that had happened to Erza, Mirajane, and the other girls who had entered the room.
After hearing the whole story, they were left completely speechless, especially after realizing that Yuuki had actually been serious about what he had said earlier at the guild and that he and Lucy were now officially dating.
This caused Erza to pinch the bridge of her nose in disbelief, while Mirajane stood there for a moment, clearly caught off guard.
"Ah! Are you okay, Mira-nee?" Lisanna asked hurriedly.
“Yuuki-kun... you started dating Lucy?” Mirajane asked, her usual smile faltering for a moment as she looked at him in surprise. She then turned her gaze toward Lucy, who looked a little awkward under her stare. Mirajane couldn't help but puff out her cheeks slightly, feeling a small twinge of jealousy toward her.
"Anyway, congratulations, both of you. I'm happy for you two." Laki said, though there was a hint of jealousy and begrudging acceptance in her voice, making Yuuki's smile turn stiff.
"C-Congratulations, Yuuki-san, Lucy-san." Wendy wasn't really sure what to say, but she followed Laki's lead and congratulated them as well.
"Sigh. What a mess." Carla shook her head as she looked at the scene.
In the end, everything had been cleared up, from how Lucy had turned invisible to how she and Yuuki had started dating. The whole story was also relayed to the guys downstairs who had been fighting earlier.
When they heard the news that Yuuki and Lucy were actually dating, everyone erupted into different reactions. Natsu, Gray, and Happy's jaws practically dropped to the floor, while Macao, Wakaba, Elfman, and the others were hardly any better, completely shocked by the sudden announcement.
Yet, seeing how close and affectionate Lucy and Yuuki had become, they had no choice but to accept the truth.
Only a few, such as Kinana, Bisca, Alzack, and Romeo, calmly congratulated the two of them with warm smiles. And so, that was how Yuuki and Lucy's relationship started.
One morning, Romeo entered the guild and called out to Lucy.
"Lucy-nee, you have a visitor." Romeo said while a girl with elegant appearance followed him closely.
"Huh? Who is she?" Natsu asked, crossing his arms as he curiously looked toward the entrance.
Lucy also seemed confused, as she didn't recognize the girl.
"Erm…"
The girl who had arrived with Romeo was a beautiful blonde with a gentle appearance. Upon spotting Lucy, her eyes brightened as she walked toward her.
"Are you Lucy Heartfilia?" the girl asked excitedly once she reached her.
