Petrel

Chapter 35

- What are you whispering about here? - I appeared behind the people closest to me.

- Um... well... - Charlie hesitated.

- Charlie suggests trying to spend the night with Mira, - Elsa immediately gave her friend away.

I sighed heavily, looked at the kitty and said, "Charlie, I understand that you literally just lost your virginity and you're still aroused after our marathon. But... We won't be adding anyone else to our relationship. Just the three of us, together, forever."

"I didn't mean it that way, honestly," the cat girl panicked.

- Don't worry, I understand what you mean. And in principle I agree. - I answered with a smile. - But since there are three of us now, I think it's important to add one rule to our relationship. We do EVERYTHING TOGETHER. - I set an important condition, especially emphasizing the key words.

- Yes, I think it will really be right. - Elsa immediately agreed, although we, in fact, lived like this up to this point and can no longer imagine life without each other.

- Yes, of course, - Charlie confirmed after the scarlet-haired girl.

- Well, since we've decided everything, I propose this course of action: we take two blockheads with Lucy and go to train.

- Before we go, let's figure out what we decided about Mira. - Elsa stopped me.

- Yes, perhaps you are right. - I sighed and sat down at the table opposite them. - Although I think everything is simple here. We will wait until autumn, when there will be an annual parade and depending on whether she finds a mate, we will decide whether she will spend the night with us or not. Do you agree?

- Yes, - I received confirmation from my lovers.

- In that case, it's time to train. We've already missed a whole month.

So, having finished discussing our plans for Mira, we set out to gather a group of students. Although we didn't have to go far to find Natsu and Gray, as usual, they were bickering in the middle of the guild, so Elsa and I simply walked up to them. Each of us grabbed a student by the head and dragged them along while they screamed because their heads were being squeezed too hard.

Unlike the two idiots, Lucy was not found in the guild, so we headed towards her house. However, what made me smile were the two girls who they thought were secretly following us, namely Rain and Lissana.

We dragged our students like this for 5 minutes, and after we let them go, I addressed them.

"Do you know why you were punished?" I said in a stern tone.

- Because we fought? - said Gray.

- No. Any other options? - Elsa said.

- For the destroyed temple during the mission? - Natsu suggested, making me frown.

- No, but you will get paid for this.

"Idiot," Gray hissed quietly.

- Okay, I see you still don't understand. – I sighed and began to explain.

- I can't force you to always get along with each other, and I don't want to do that. The problem is that you fight in public places. If you want to beat each other's faces, at least go out of town.

- But when a fight starts in the guild, almost everyone fights, - Gray said with resentment.

- But you're missing an important point. Mass fights in the guild have long been starting with just the two of you. - Elsa said

- Not true! Mira and Laxus recently started a fight, and they even used magic.

- Their situation was different from yours. As an example, you can imagine how angry Elsa and I would have been if you had brazenly come up to us and ruined our cake.

From a very vivid fantasy, both guys shuddered and swallowed hard.

- Okay, I think you roughly understand, now let's go get Lucy.

- You two, stop sneaking around and come with us! - I shouted.

Hearing my scream, two girls came out from around the nearest corner with embarrassed faces.

"Instead of sneaking around, you should have asked to train with us," I scolded them both.

- Oh well, it doesn't matter. If you chose these blockheads as your mate, you will train with them on equal terms, and I won't allow you to shirk. Got it? - They only nodded like dummies at my words, mentally beginning to regret a little that they gave in to jealousy.

So, a group of seven of us headed to Lucy's apartment.

*Knock, knock* - I knocked on the apartment door after 10 minutes of walking.

- Wendy? Elsa? Did you want something? - Lucy was surprised when she opened the door, but what confused me was that she was wearing only a towel.

- Slut. Seducer. - a quiet hiss was heard from behind, clearly belonging to Lissana and Dozhdiya.

- Hi. We promised that we would train you, so we came in. - Sighing from the understanding that this incident added fuel to the fire of jealousy of the girls, I told Lucy the purpose of our visit.

- Exactly! But I can't today, I need to take a mission to pay the rent. - the girl said joyfully at first, and then a little upset at the end.

- Don't worry about the rent. You're my mother's great-granddaughter, so I'll pay for your rent and food while you train.

"But it's somehow…" the girl was clearly confused by this proposal.

- Calm down, Lucy. The moment Wendy decided to train you, you lost the opportunity to refuse. - said Charlie, but instead of calming her down, panic flashed in the white-haired spirit enchanter's eyes.

- Charlie, don't scare her. We won't chase her like the boys anyway, - said Elsa.

- Okay then, Lucy, go dry yourself and get dressed, and we'll wait for you outside, otherwise these two furies will soon be poisoned to death. - I said, turning towards our involuntary fellow travelers, who immediately pretended to be goody two shoes.

"I'll be right back," the girl disappeared instantly, apparently only now realizing that she had been talking to us this whole time wearing only a towel.
