This is an entry for FireDragonNatsu's NaLu fan fiction writing contest.
FireDragonNatsu, I'm sorry I took a long time submitting a story. Our finals had just ended so.. :)
Anyway, here it is.
Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail. :)
Chapter One: The Meeting
"Lucy, get up!"
The said girl buried her nose behind a book, reading the words louder for the pink haired dragon slayer to hear. "She was curled on the couch, sitting by the fireplace—"
"Lucy, let's play!"
"—since it's winter, and all she wants to do—"
"Lucy, let's go fishing!"
"—is to be alone and get away from her rowdy friends—"
"Luucyy, let's get something to eat!"
"—and read a very good book WITHOUT getting DISTURBED by some PINK-HAIRED IDIOT!"
"LUUUUCYYYYYYYYYYYY!"
Gray looked at the pair with scared eyes and started to inch away from them hoping to harbor safety from the upcoming roar that he thought is stronger and scarier than of the dragon slayer's. Still, he can't help but watch his two teammates struggle with the behavior of each other – the one trying to deal with the idiotic one and the other one trying to deal with the academic one.
"Geez, Natsu! Couldn't you take a hint?"
There goes the second Erza, Gray thought cringing, making sure that he doesn't speak the words out or he'll sure be as good as dead. He watched as Lucy snapped shut the book in her hands in an unlady-like way and glared a deadly glare (Gray confirmed she's really a family relative of Erza)at the pink-haired dragon slayer on her side still caught up on tugging her sleeves. As much as he loved the look on Natsu's face when Lucy starts to act like that, he still can't mock him as he looked like he'd pee on his pants himself.
"L-Lucy, I just w-wanted to play –"
"Then get the hell out and play! Don't drag me in your stupid antics!" Lucy fumed, still glaring at Natsu who flashed a slight hurt look at her. Okay, that went overboard, she thought to herself guiltily. Seriously, she's in one of those PMS days now and clearly, Natsu's not helping at all. She badly wanted to read the book she's holding to relieve her from stress but she can't read in her apartment since the plumbers are there, busy patching up the slight damage on the water pipes that was caused by a jealous water mage. So now, she's trying to read in the guild, hoping to ease her mind a bit. Apparently, Juvia learned that Gray had been crashing to her house to take nice warm bath – which is unknown to Lucy or she wouldn't have approved – and got really mad, effectively letting the water gush out of the tubes, leaving her apartment flooded and the water pipes damaged.
"Oi, oi," Gray spoke worriedly seeing the look on Natsu's face.
Lucy turned to him, glaring.
Uh-oh.
This is all his fault! Lucy thought. She considered kicking Gray out of frustration and guilt but she knew she would just cause more damage. Now, she's totally and officially broke! What with all the repairs needed to be done with the apartment, thanks to Gray. And she's been darn frustrated and PMS-ing and Natsu – the idiotic and insensitive Natsu just have to receive them all.
"I-I think I need some air," Gray gulped nervously and slid down from his seat and turned around. He was surprised however when he felt he bumped something on his knees and blinked down to see a little girl with pink hair with her butt on the ground. Then, a little blonde boy, about as tall as her rushed to the girl to help her stand up and then charged towards him sending little punches to his knees that did nothing but tickle him.
"Huh?" He just said as he looked dumbfounded at the two children.
"Gray? Who are those?" He heard Lucy ask, her anger completely forgotten. He felt the people in the guild started to gather around them looking curious at what is happening.
He turned to her with a confused look as Natsu came forward to take a better look at the two toddlers.
"Papa! Papa!"
Confused and flabbergasted, the guild watched as the little girl ran up to Natsu, lifting up her hands towards him as if asking him to carry her up. And then, the other boy looked past Gray and his face turned delightfully happy as she saw Lucy peering on Gray's shoulders. He pushed Gray away and wrapped his tiny arms around the blonde's waist and shrieked, "Mama!"
By that time, everyone's jaws fell on the ground looking at the two kids interacting to two of their members. There was a complete silence as everyone tried to process the turn of events.
With a bold heart (and probably because she was the blonde's best friend - as how everybody sees it), Levy stepped forward and gawked at the two. Then she turned to Lucy who was looking like she'd just swallowed a whole grenade, "Lu-chan?"
Lucy turned to her still looking dumbfounded.
She continued. "Natsu, Lu-chan.. are these your.. kids?"
"….EHH?"
AAAAND that's it!
It's kinda short isn't it? Anyway, please do correct my mistakes if I had any here.
I really don't mind. :)
