Chereads / Fairy's Conflict / Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

The angel in front of these brothers bowed and smiled graciously as her cat also smiled at them with bright eyes. Lucy is a goddess in these boys' eyes as they've never seen such pure and natural beauty in any woman they have seen in their whole life, well except their cute and loving little sister.

'I think my heart just skipped a beat' all brothers thought at the same time while staring at Lucy with sparkling eyes as they admired her grace of beauty and the aura of light that seemed to surround the young girl in front of them. 

For these thirteen brothers, Lucy is an immaculate goddess that has descended from heaven to bless their life on Earth – which is ironic – Lucy is still clueless about what they are thinking as her mind wanders towards 'is something wrong with her?'.

"Shall we?" – Rin-chan smiled as Lucy nodded towards him.

'Now that I think of it, Rin-chan has a daughter meanwhile Mi-chan had sons. I didn't know how many sons were there. I did meet the two parents on different occasions before they got married. Sadly, I couldn't be there at the wedding since it was when my memories were sealed...' 

Lucy's thoughts made her realize how much she had missed, she shook her head slightly to erase the beginning of her negative thought. Now that she finished introducing herself and Happy to the others and Rintarou and Miwa not blocking her view of the people in the room Lucy widened her eyes a little bit as she saw thirteen brothers and one sister in front of her.

They're staring at her attentively which makes Lucy quite shy and fumbles her fingers together to ease the shyness and nervousness she is feeling at the moment.

"Did I happen to overdress or is there something on my face?" – Lucy asked politely to others as Miwa glanced back at the group, who were widely gaping at Lucy's beauty, Miwa could only giggle at their reaction.

"L-Lu-chan...is that you." – Ema questioned Lucy as the blonde beauty smiled softly in return while she put Happy down on the side of a couch before opening her arms towards Ema.

"Ehn! It's been quite a while hasn't it? I'm sorry for leaving, but you know I had to due to some reasons and complications..." Lucy said sadly as she smiled gently towards little Ema who ran up and held Lucy tightly Ema silently sobbed into an embrace while Lucy gently rubbed her head. It's been so long since Lucy has seen Ema as the last time they were together like this was when she was still a little Ema. 

They were still a child and young at that time, but Lucy was happy to see that she was doing well and had grown up to be a beautiful and cute young lady.

"I have been great, I finally got siblings I can call family and care about, Lu-chan, now that you are staying with us we can finally hang out as we used to!" – she looked up grinning widely not breaking from the bear hug she was giving to Lucy.

"It's nice to see that you both remember each other well." – Rintarou said as he softly smiles

'That's right I saw her as a little sister' Lucy thought.

"Oh, that reminds me." – Lucy said looking up to the frozen number of sons who could only stare at her at the moment.

"Am I going to be welcomed or are you guys going to be stuck like that forever?" – Lucy giggled openly as they finally snapped out of their fantasy.

"I'm sorry for not welcoming you properly earlier and the embarrassing spectacle we've shown you. My name is Asahina Masaomi, the eldest, welcome to the Asahina residence Miss Lucy, and feel free to come to me if there is anything I can help you with. Sometimes I'm not always here as I work in the hospital as a doctor." – a guy with the light brown color of hair who is quite tall and on the lean side. He is wearing a blue checkered collar shirt with black jean pants.

"Please, call me Lucy, no need for formalities Masaomi-san" - Lucy politely said. 

"Now guys line up and introduce yourselves." – Masaomi continued as a signal to the others to do the same as he did.

"My name is Asahina Ukyo, the second eldest. I do the house chores here with the help of Ema, if you need anything please don't hesitate to call or ask me as I seldom leave the house because I work as a lawyer, my clients are kind of unique so I can do my work at home. If I'm not here, you can ask for Ema." - a guy who has a light coffee color for hair and wearing prescription glasses, and also, he is wearing a pair of black suits with a redshirt for the inside and a gray tie and gray vest.

To Lucy, the eldest, Masaomi, looks like the father figure of the family if Rintarou is not at the residence to take care of all of them. As for the second eldest, Ukyo is like the mother figure of everyone if Miwa is not present.

"Hello! Asahina Kaname at your service, angel-chan." – a flashy and flirty man wearing monk clothes that have a piercing in his left ear, and also a hunk on the muscular side introduces himself to Lucy with a flirty smile. 

"Oh, my, my! What a gracious beauty you are. I'm Asahina Hikaru the novelist of the family. If you want to go shopping just call me so, me, you, and our little Ema can enjoy our girl's day." – a man cross-dressing as a woman introduced himself. Lucy can't distinguish if he is a guy or a mature and sexy woman who is ready to gobble her up even though her nose is telling her that Hikaru is a man.

"Asahina Tsubaki here, don't forget me~ Ms. Gorgeous. I'm the oldest of the triplet but the fifth brother for the whole family." – a silver-haired man wearing a white shirt inside and a pink diamond pattern vest with a black jacket as his black necklace with a pendant dangling on his neck, and he also wear black fitted jeans.

"Azusa Asahina, and brother please behave for once in a while, be nice to our guest. The second oldest of the triplets but the sixth brother of the whole family. Nice to meet you, Lucy-san." – a raven-color hair who is also wearing prescription stripe black glasses introduces himself. He is wearing almost the same clothes as Tsubaki, the only difference is he has a blue diamond pattern with a long chain attached to his white belt.

"I'm the third triplet and the seventh brother of this family, Asahina Natsume. Nice to meet you, Lucy-san. I don't live here as I have my apartment, but if you need me with anything else please call me, here is my card." – an orange-color-haired guy introduced himself as he was wearing a full-on black suit from top to head. The first impression Lucy thought as soon as Natsume entered her sight was 'a cat in black suit'. 

"You have a beautiful and smooth and softest hair I've ever seen or touched, I'm Asahina Louis. A professional hairdresser, call me or text me if you want someone to design your hair like how I do for our Ema." – a gentle-looking man who has platinum blonde hair wearing a blue polka dots cardigan and a white with black color as a shirt and wearing straight red-violet jean pants.

Lucy almost tries to reject the offer politely as she has Cancer and Virgo to do her hair and dress her up, but soon changes her mind when she sees the eagerness in Louis's eyes. 

"Asahina Subaru." – a tall young man, a black-haired guy who has a lean but muscular body wearing a white jacket and green t-shirt with black pants. He seems sporty and cool guy but kind of anti-social or maybe cold towards strangers to Lucy.

'Maybe a tsundere...' Lucy thought jokingly.

"I guess...it's my turn...I'm Asahina Yuusuke. Nice to meet ya." – a red-haired man who is wearing modern casual clothes for teenage boys introduces himself with his right hand rubbing his nape while looking away from Lucy as he blushes from embarrassment. Lucy could not help but chuckle slightly.

"A red puppy..." - Lucy muttered inoffensively making Yuusuke blush out of control and try to disagree with such a description but he ended up stammering then everyone laughed. 

Lucy realizes that she spoke her thoughts out loud and immediately apologizes to Yuusuke, but that makes everyone laugh out loud more and the poor red-haired teenager turns redder than his hair and an imaginative smoke puff comes out of his head. 

"Not even that pretty, you should know my name I am THE Asahina Fuuto, a STAR IDOL!" – the arrogance to his voice could not escape from Lucy's ear as a smug-looking young boy stared her up and down which caused Happy to cat-hiss towards him while showing his sharp claws.

"I am Asahina Wataru, the youngest of them all. Nice to meet you goddess-chan. Let's play sometimes together with Ema-nee-chan." – a child jumps towards her and hugs her so tightly as the child giggles happily.

"Usagi?" - Lucy once again speaks her thoughts out loud after Wataru introduces himself. Hearing such a cute impression from the blonde beauty, the child couldn't help but hop around happily while carrying his Usagi stuff toy. 

"It's a pleasure to meet you all, I hope to be in your care. Is it fine if someone shows me to my room so I can unpack?" – Lucy asks politely towards them.

"Yeah, I'll bring you and by the way honey, you should tell them who Lucy is, so they won't freak out sooner or later." – Rintarou said to his wife as Lucy nodded towards Miwa to signaling her that it is fine to speak about her origin.

"Aye!" – Happy exclaimed quite loudly, shocking the others in the room.

"NANI, THE CAT TALKED?!?!" – the siblings shouted with their jaws on the ground as their eyes were wide open.

"I am not a cat, I'm an exceed from a different world so I can talk and fly. I am Lushiee's partner." – Happy said flying up to Lucy's shoulder to get some rest together with his partner as he left the others behind still shell-shocked. 

Everyone was at a loss for words and didn't know what to say and allowed the so-called looking cat to walk away with their stepfather and their new fascinating guest.

Their mother, Miwa told them everything she knew about Lucy – her magic and origin – and about the different realms she came from and where her family originates from. She also told them it's best to not ask about her past regarding where she was without her family when she 'lost' her memories as it's a sensitive topic for her. 

They felt bad for Lucy as she experienced those things in the past but surprisingly, they accepted her faster than Miwa, Rintarou and Lucy thought. Soon both the parents had to leave because they had business work abroad and important meetings with higher-ups.

Today's event is hectic for Lucy after meeting everyone who got her quite exhausted. She still could not believe they accepted her quickly as if they could trust her and would treat her like a family. Lucy is still afraid of trusting others without knowing them fully especially when they look at her longer than she expected.

'Was I dressed weirdly? Did I look bad?' these thoughts run wildly through her mind as she does not quite understand why they just stare at her for like a good ten minutes before snapping out with her help.

Lucy summoned Virgo to help her arrange her things and unpack her clothes to put into the closets. Both of them set Lucy's room perfectly by her liking which she commented on her gratitude towards Virgo who happily bowed and ask for punishment.

"I am all done, punishment hime?" – Virgo asked eagerly toward Lucy

"No, but tell the others I said hi." – Lucy beam watching Virgo smile slightly then bow and disappear in golden dust.

"Lushiee are you okay?" – Happy ask concernly towards the blonde placing himself on Lucy's lap once she sat down on the bed, it wasn't really Lucy's style of a bed so she asked Aries helped by using her wool to make it more comfortably to sleep on.

"I'm fine it was all weird when the Asahina brothers kept staring at me." – she sighed petting the exceed's head.

"Maybe they liiiikeeee youuu~" – he smirked rolling his tongue as he flies to the air trying to escape from Lucy's grasp and wrath.

"SHUT UP YOU DAMN NEKO." – Lucy jump up trying to catch the stupid cat, but he seemed to fly out of their bedroom straight to the hallway which Lucy soon followed. 

As she opens the door and runs to the hallway, she bumped into someone, she closes both of her eyes expecting to fall downwards. A muscular arm found its way to Lucy's waist as it wrapped itself to her waist catching Lucy from meeting the cold and hard floor. Before opening her eyes, she felt this hard chest and warmth, and unexpectedly... somehow, she felt safe and comfortable being embraced by this person. She slowly opens up her eyes to see who actually catch her from falling to the floor.

Lucy sees the eldest brother, Masaomi holding her as their faces is inches away from kissing, she can feel their breath mixing together that Lucy could not help but blush as her blood is rushing up to her face making it look like a tomato.
