บท 174: Pool Party
Earth Land, Ishgar, Kingdom of Fiore, Magnolia.
August, x784.
The next day, just as the sun was setting, Alfonzo and Elicia pulled into their mansion's garage. Then, almost lethargically, they opened the Vanquish's car doors and stepped out of the vehicle.
"I'm never going shopping with you again, Fonzie." Elicia said, sounding absolutely exhausted.
"I can't even remember how many times I've said that to you over the years." Alfonzo said with a tired chuckle. "Still, those merchants were out for blood, weren't they?"
"You can say that again." Elicia replied.
Last night, after they finished their operation at the prison in Crocus, Alfonzo and Elicia returned to their hotel without being spotted. After that, they decided to work off the stress of breaking into a maximum security prison, not to mention the stress they piled on themselves by showering together before their operation, with a few rounds in the sack.
Then, after waking up in the morning, Alfonzo and Elicia made their way to the construction material stores they marked the previous afternoon, intending to make an order for the necessary materials for the new guild hall.
Unfortunately, the merchants had no intention of making it easy on them. They had all heard about the destruction of Fairy Tail's guild hall, so they knew that the guild was in dire need of those materials. So, the merchants did what merchants do best, tried to push the prices as high as they could.
After nearly six hours in total of haggling with several different stores, Alfonzo managed to push the prices down to something reasonable, if still a bit overpriced, before closing the deals. Luckily, he was able to get free shipping included in the deal. Otherwise, he would have been forced to make all the building materials himself.
"Gramps better be thankful for this." Alfonzo muttered as he opened the Vanquish's trunk and pulled his and Elicia's luggage out. "And he better have his checkbook ready for all these invoices. I paid for these out of my own pocket because they wanted cash up front for these deals."
"Uh… Fonzie, I don't think they have checkbooks on Earth Land." Elicia said, reaching into the trunk to pull out the several shopping bags of her own.
"It was just a figure of speech, Lici." Alfonzo said in an exasperated tone.
In response, Elicia simply smiled. Judging by her smile, it was clear that she was just teasing Alfonzo.
A few moments later, Alfonzo and Elicia made their way into the house from the garage.
"Hey, we're home!" Alfonzo shouted once he made it into the kitchen.
To both his and Elicia's surprise, no one replied to Alfonzo's greeting.
"I wonder where they are." Alfonzo wondered aloud.
"On a quest, maybe?" Elicia answered, also in a tone of wonder. "I mean, the quest board is still up in the guild's library, right?"
"I guess." Alfonzo replied with a shrug before starting to move towards the master bedroom.
After a few minutes, Alfonzo and Elicia were in their bedroom and putting away their luggage and new items they bought in the capital. However, just as Alfonzo finished putting away his belongings, he happened to look outside.
What he saw was most of the young Fairy Tail wizards hanging out in his backyard. Naturally, there were a few exceptions. For example, Jet and Droy, although they had been discharged from the hospital, were still relatively weak and spending time resting at home.
Also, Gray, Erza, Natsu, Happy, and Lucy were not present either.
"Well, I guess I know where everyone is." Alfonzo muttered as he walked back into his walk-in closet and grabbed a pair of swimming trunks. "Looks like Team Natsu isn't back yet, either."
"What did you say, Fonzie?" Elicia asked, coming out of her shoe closet with a smile on her face. "Did you figure out where everyone is?"
As Elicia spoke, she walked to the door leading to Alfonzo's closet. Then, she stopped and licked her lips at the sight she came across.
Currently, Alfonzo was completely naked and holding a pair of black swimming trunks with white stripes on the seams. On top of that, he was bending over to slip his left foot into the legs of the trunks with his back facing the door.
"Mmm~ Mama Like." Elicia said as she approached Alfonzo.
*Smack!*
Rolling his eyes at the lecherous actions of his fiancé, Alfonzo continued putting his trunks on.
"Yeah, everyone is out in the backyard." Alfonzo replied. "It looks like their having a pool party."
Instead of teasing Alfonzo any further, Elicia rushed to the sliding door that led to the mansion's backyard. Seeing Cana, Laki, Alzack, Levy, Ur, Ultear, Mirajane, Elfman, Lisanna, Bisca, Marin, Sun, Gozaburo, Ren, Masa, and Fujishiro all hanging out in and around the pool, Elicia rushed into one of her closets and started picking from her selection of swimsuits.
"Come on, Fonzie!" Elicia shouted from inside her closet. "We can't' be left out of the party."
Once again rolling his eyes, Alfonzo finished getting dressed. Then, he walked out of the closet and waited for Elicia near the sliding door.
Surprisingly, it only took a few minutes for Elicia to choose her swimsuit and change into it. Then, she rushed towards the sliding door and wrapped her arms, and breasts, around Alfonzo's left arm.
Looking down, Alfonzo saw that Elicia was wearing a two piece bikini with hot pink cups and black straps that tied around her neck, back, and on the sides of her hips.
"Let's go!" Elicia said, releasing Alfonzo's arm with her left hand and pointing it towards the pool through the sliding door.
With a smile, Alfonzo reached his right hand towards the sliding doors handle and slid it open as the two walked out into the backyard.
Meanwhile, Ur and Ren, who were trying to soak up the last few rays of sunlight, were the first to notice the door opening.
"Oh, it looks like the owners of the house are back." Ur said with a grin. "How did the material shopping go?"
"Don't even ask." Alfonzo said with a weary expression. "Those merchants are vultures."
"But you got everything you needed, right?" Ren asked, sliding the sunglasses she was wearing up onto her forehead.
Naturally, both Alfonzo and Elicia let their eyes wander over the swimsuits the two mature women were wearing, though, their reasons were different. While Elicia was checking the swimsuits from the fashion aspect. Alfonzo's instincts as a man took over.
Ur was wearing a sporty, two-piece that emphasized all the good points of her figure while Ren wore a royal purple one-piece that highlighted her hips.
"Ur, you really should let me make a few swimsuits for you." Elicia said, letting go of Alfonzo's arm and running over to the pool chairs Ur and Ren were laying on. "Although that suit definitely looks good on you, I could make something that would flatter your curves even more."
"I'll think about it." Ur replied with a wry smile. "It's not like I've got anyone I wanna show off to."
"Who knows, maybe someone who has been missing for the last three years would like to see you in something sexy." Elicia said in a teasing tone while nudging Ur with her elbow.
"If you're talking about Gildarts, please stop." Ur replied while rolling her eyes hard enough to give herself vertigo. "The only way I would ever give him a chance is if he could stop his womanizing. But we all know that's impossible."
"So, he does have a chance." Elicia said while waggling her eyebrows.
"Oh, let it go, little girl." Ur replied with a slight frown, though it did nothing to hide the blush that was creeping up on her cheeks. "Anyway, you said something about my suit, why didn't you mention Ren's?"
"Oh, because I bought this one from Lici." Ren said with a smile. Then, she started waggling her eyebrows like Elicia did before. "But I'm more interested in the previous topic. So, if Gildarts stops his womanizing, you'd give him a chance, huh?"
"Ugh! Me and my big mouth." Ur muttered in resignation.
While Elicia was talking with Ur and Ren, Alfonzo continued walking towards the pool. Eventually, everyone noticed his approach.
"Alfonzo!" Sun shouted from the deep end of the pool in her frilly baby pink one-piece swimsuit. "Come play with us!"
"Sure." Alfonzo replied with a smile while doing some light stretches at the edge of the pool.
Meanwhile, as Alfonzo stretched, two girls swam closer. To no one's surprise, they were Ultear and Mirajane.
"Welcome home, Alfonzo." Ultear said after reaching the edge of the pool.
"How was the trip to the capital?" Mirajane asked a moment later.
Before answering Mirajane's question, Alfonzo looked around the pool. Unsurprisingly, he saw Cana sleeping on a pool chair in a teal and black striped two-piece with a bottle of liquor cradled in her arms. Meanwhile, Elfman, Gozaburo, Masa, and Fujishiro were playing cards and most likely gambling.
Looking into the pool, everyone else was playing tag in the deep end of the pool and looking to be having a lot of fun. Then, Alfonzo finally looked down at Ultear and Mirajane.
They were both wearing bikinis, with Ultear's in a sky blue color with white straps and Mirajane wearing one identical to Elicia's, the only difference being that the cups were white instead of hot pink.
"It's good to be back." Alfonzo replied with a smile after checking out everyone's situation. "And as for the material procurement… I'll tell you later."
Hearing that, Ultear and Mirajane nodded in understanding, instead of storytelling, it was time to have fun in the pool. Still, they reached up towards Alfonzo with one hand each.
Thinking that the girls wanted to get out for a hug or a kiss, Alfonzo smiled as he reached down and grabbed the girls' hands.
As soon as both Ultear and Mirajane had a firm grip on Alfonzo's hands, they exchanged glances with a mischievous glint in their eyes. Then, they both put their feet on the wall of the pool, and with all their strength, the pushed off and flung Alfonzo in to the pool.
"What the f---" Alfonzo shouted in surprise.
*Splash!*
A moment later, Alfonzo splashed into the water halfway between the deep end and the shallow end.
Something to take note of, however, was the fact that Alfonzo was standing at the shallow end of the pool while he was stretching. Another thing to pay attention to is the fact that the pool is a regulation, Olympic-sized pool. Meaning, the pool was 164' (50 m) in length.
A moment later, Alfonzo surfaced. After realizing just how far he flew, he narrowed his eyes at Ultear and Mirajane.
"Oh, I'm gonna get you for that!" Alfonzo shouted.
"Only if you can catch us!" Ultear shouted back with a smile.
"Run away!" Mirajane shouted happily as well.
With that, Ultear and Mirajane swam away in different directions, leaving Alfonzo to decide who he should chase after first. Meanwhile, in the deep end of the pool, the game of tag ended and all those playing decided that a new game would start with Alfonzo being "it".
Like that, everyone enjoyed their time around the pool, tiring themselves out in the process. Then, after a while, Alfonzo decided to get out of the pool and set up his grill to make everyone a late dinner, something that he received unanimous cheers for.
Then, after the food was cooked, served, and everyone had their fill, the party moved inside where the whole group drank and played games in the game room in the basement. Alfonzo even made the drink they discussed the day before for Sun, which she loved. In fact, she loved it so much that she ended up getting drunk and sitting on Alfonzo's lap.
"Alfonzo, feed me more of that yummy drink." Sun said with a drunken smile on her face.
Shaking his head with a chuckle, Alfonzo picked up Sun's glass and held it to her mouth.
"Uh-uh." Sun exclaimed while shaking her head. "Not like that."
"Then how else am I supposed to feed it to you?" Alfonzo asked with a wry smile.
"Like this!" Sun shouted as she snatched the glass out of Alfonzo's hand.
In the next moment, Sun took a big gulp from the glass before setting it down on the table. Then, she grabbed Alfonzo's cheeks with both of her hands and planted a kiss on his lips while pushing the drink in her mouth into his.
Naturally, this action turned into more than Sun just feeding Alfonzo the drink in her mouth, as it lasted for nearly five minutes.
And while Sun was kissing him, Alfonzo was sure that he could hear the sound of a tooth shattering, but since no killing intent was directed his way, he wrote it off as a figment of his imagination.
Alfonzo's other girlfriends, after seeing Sun's boldness, also wanted to be fed their drinks and snacks in the same way. So, though it was a busy night for Alfonzo, he did not complain. Instead, he did everything he could to keep his girls happy.
