A/N: If you don't know, my old FanFiction account was Devoda. The only reason I'm telling you this at all is because I just copied and pasted this story (made some corrections and changes) and posted it back here. I don't want anyone to think that I'm stealing "Devoda's" work. I'm not. Devoda is myself, so yes. I plan on dropping the rest of the stories from Devoda. Unless one of you says no… ?
Anyway, please enjoy Starry Night.
Chapter One
Do you remember how you looked at her that night? Remember the stars and how they looked especially beautiful THAT night? You couldn't keep yourself from staring into her round, pretty milk chocolate eyes. Just seeing her smile brightly made you happy, too.
You knew how oblivious she was to your feelings. How she drove you mad at her cute expressions and remarks, without knowing, of course.
She loved the natural warmth of your hand, that starry night. You tried to look casual, but failed to hide the blood from rushing to your face every time she glanced at you or exclaimed in awe at the stars.
You loved it when she took your hand, and squeezed it as she said: "Thank you,"
You didn't really know what she meant by that, but you didn't care. You smiled back, "Welcome, Luce."
You also loved it every time a chilly breeze enveloped her; she would scoot in closer to you, until she was resting her head on your shoulder and you wrapped your arm around her. And how she blushed so hard when you did that, you felt pure satisfaction. But, was she okay with it?
You didn't say anything to her, except whenever she talked.
You never wanted to say your real feelings, your real wants and desires. 'I love you,' or 'I wish this night would stay forever,' because you didn't want anything to change. What if she rejected you? That was your biggest fear of all.
You didn't mind that tomorrow, she'd greet you the same, smile at you the same, and act the same. As nakama. Nothing more, sadly… but nothing less, thankfully.
And, y'know, you'd have your thoughts about her in your mind, and always laugh at her or tease her for being 'weird,'
But you loved her. You loved her stupid side, her weird side, and her usual side.
She was Lucy.
And that was the best thing of all.

Hey!
I feel… out of place. Like, I've done something that isn't me at all yesterday night. Ah, I can hear my heart now. It's beating so fast, every time I think about it. This isn't normal for me, okay? I'm not good, romantically, with guys. I haven't even had a boyfriend let alone my first kiss (I still haven't, don't get me wrong.)!
Do I run away? Avoid him? Oh man… I sound like a weakling (but, alas, I am one.).
Please, please, PLEASE message back soon!

Okay, okay…
Yesterday night was beautiful, I loved the stars!
Tell me the entire story, don't leave anything out. I'll help you, sweety, I promise.
So, what seems to be the problem?
Gimme the D's! :D

Okay, well… Natsu and I…
Not just any guy you see off the side of the street, but Natsu.
Yeah, him! N-A-T-S-U.
Okay, in all your years, have you EVER seen Natsu BLUSH? Uh, I haven't! Plus, at the end, I found myself cuddled up with him (NOT laying down. Just resting my head a bit… hand his arm around me a bit… and our faces really close… a bit…)
OMG, what am I gonna do? I should just act normally, right? Pretend nothing like that happened on that Starry Night?

WOW, Natsu? Blushing? HOW CUTE!
I'm so happy for you!
So, you like him a lot? You two would be an amazing couple! Everyone thinks so, too. I just talked to Gray the other day, and Erza. Oh, goodness! This is so exciting!
No, don't act as if nothing at all happened. He might think you don't care, if you do that.
It's obvious he likes you, though.
You should give him a chance!

Me?
Natsu?
Couple?
My heads about to explode, I'm getting really hot and lightheaded.
E-everyone thinks it would be a good idea? Like, this has been a conversation! Oh, god!
I… I can't think. I'll talk to you at the Guild later…
Gahhh!

Lucy,
I heard everything from Mirajane just now.
I'm happy that you have finally realized that there is something special between you and Natsu.
No worries, I approve.
I wish you all the best.
