I know, I know. I'm still not updating things like I should, but I really am just all over the place with my writing lately. I just get inspiration for some things and for others it's just...dead. I guess you can assume all my stories are on hiatus for what they're worth at the moment. I'll try to catch up with everything, but I don't know when that will be. If there's a specific story you want me to update leave a review on that story or PM me with something inspiring, your thoughts on what you'd like to see next in the story, or just saying how much you love my writing and/or my story. It might not seem like much but that just might help me out with a story. Thank you all so much for your time and patience. I love you all!

So this story has been typed up for a long time on my computer and I just decided to post it. I have about six chapters done, so I'll at least have a regular story for a while with this, which is a main reason why I'm posting this story. Maybe being regular is just what I need right now.

Prologue

"Hey, Natsu!" Lucy sang, skipping up to the pink-haired Mage. "Do you wanna go on a mission with me?"

"Sorry, Luce, but I promised Happy we would go on a mission together," Natsu explained. "We haven't had a chance to go together since you came."

"That's fine," she laughed nervously. "Is Erza around? Maybe we could take one together."

"She had a special mission from the Master," Happy chimed in.

"Oh, I see." She looked around. Levy left on a mission the day before, so she wasn't available. Lisanna wasn't in the question. They haven't really gotten along since she returned from Edolas.

"Natsu, let's go on a mission."

Lucy looked up and saw Gray. He had that same bored expression on his face as always. "Natsu's going on a mission with Happy," she said, trying not to pout. "We could go on one together. My rent is due soon. I know you won't destroy a whole town."

"Okay, let's go."

That was the day that changed something. In that was one mission, they became closer. Lucy had stumbled and fallen, Gray tried to catch her, then they landed on the ground with him on top. It was very cliche, but that moment, that one mission, changed everything. A spark that was always ignored was set aflame, and with one little kiss, they realized how they felt.

That mission was four months before. The two have went on dates often, and the occasional missions together, but the guild didn't know. They really just feared everyone's reaction. They all wanted Gray to end up with Juvia, and Natsu with Lucy. That's how they all expected it to be.

They finally decided to their their friends though. After the flooding from Juvia's crying was drained, the whole guild partied long into the morning. The two had left around one in the morning. The questions were getting very embarrassing, so they escaped the chaos.

"You're really heavy," Lucy whined, throwing Gray down on the couch. She had to carry him from the guild. She would have summoned Loke to help her, but he wouldn't leave afterwards. She had made the decision too many times. She had learned her lesson already.

"Sorry," Gray apologized. "I'm just tired now."

"I'll go make some tea." Lucy had drank some that night, but not much. She had learned at that point to not drink a lot. She usually had to help Gray or Natsu home, even before she was in a relationship with one of them.

She got the tea and went back to the living room. She noticed that he wasn't there. She found him sleeping on her bed. The tea was abandoned on her desk when she sat by him. He surprised her by flipping over so he was on top of her.

"I thought you were tired?" Lucy asked, a heavy blush on her cheek. They haven't done anything below the belt, but she felt like that may happen that night. Him being drunk had a part in that, but she knew that if anything did, he really wanted it.

Gray have Lucy a sweet kiss, then rested his forehead against hers. "Lucy, I have a special mission for you." She laughed and gripped his hair, pulling him closer to her.

And those were the two nights she would remember, no matter what happened.
