Jellal instantly stood up to side with Erza.

Soon enough, people got scared to play with her and Jellal.

Only Mira-san stood up, looking excited, decided to play.

"Anyone wanted to play with me?" Mira-san asked, nicely.

Laxus stood up, casually, and nods.

The four positioned themselves to play.

"Whoever loses, will cook dinner!" Erza declared, Jellal standing beside her.

"Fine by me. I always cook dinner." Mira-san smiled.

"Exactly. But, it has to be a feast, today! Plus, a strawberry cake." Erza drooled.

"Sure. If I win, I want seafood." Mira-san responded, looking fired up.

The two started to play.

What shocked everyone was both transformed to their original forms.

Wings were spread.

Even their partners, looked intimidated.

Damn.

They're taking this food thingy bet seriously.

They started playing, and it normally takes 10 minutes before a ball goes down.

That's not normal, considering they're inside the pool.

The elements would hissed at their partners, if the ball didn't get caught.

"You're not trying hard enough!" Erza growled at Jellal, and he was shaking.

For an angel, she looked like a demon at that moment.

Some instance that Laxus wasn't able to catch the ball, Mira-san would throw a glare at him.

"Don't you know better than to catch a tiny ball?" Mira-san hissed, and she looks like the Queen of the underworld, herself.

It was a rather scary sight.

After taking the whole afternoon playing, the game finally ended.

Problem was...

Mira-san lost.

She literally cried after the game, blaming Laxus of their loss.

Laxus, on the other hand, kept comforting her and promised to help her with the feast.

So, there they are now.

Cooking for our feast, tonight.

Everyone decided to spy on them.

Mira-san was baking the cake, and instructing Laxus on what he needs to do.

Laxus, a man of pride, stubbornly follows her commands.

While Mira-san was mixing ingredients for the cream, Laxus accidentally trips off on an onion that fell on the counter and landed on Mira-san.

They both landed on the floor with cream covering both of them.

Laxus on top of Mira-san.

Mira-san raging, Laxus tried to calm her down by explaining what happened.

Then, she started giggling.

"You look ridiculous!" Mira-san laughed, pointing at Laxus who's more covered with cream than her.

Laxus sighed in relief, but eyed her seriously.

But, then, he couldn't help but laugh too.

Laughing with the contagious giggles, Mira-san created.
