This is just a small one shot story that came to my mind when I was dozing off the couch praying for the rain to come. And there, my imagination left the universe again and went somewhere where Lucy, Natsu and Happy might be.
If Fairy Tail is mine, Natsu and Lucy might be seen kissing on the latest chapter, as well as Juvia and Gray! XD
So there, Fairy Tail is not mine, it's Hiro's property.
Enjoy reading!

It is definitely obvious that Natsu Dragneel finds Lucy Heartfilia's company enjoyable. That is why, most of the guild members can't help but think if there is something going on between the two. It is not like they don't really want to meddle on them, but even though how much they are itching to know the real score between them, there are still some things that they know they must stay out of the line. They may be known as a rambunctious and infamous guild, but that doesn't mean that they don't know how to respect someone's privacy.
The only person they know who will do that despite of all their reminders is Natsu. This boy is a pain in the ass. He just doesn't know when to stop. It is really impressive that Lucy can handle him somehow.
"Haaaappyyyy, I'm super boooored!" Natsu whined raising his hand in the air then throwing it back on the table harshly followed by his head banging loudly.
"Aye Sir!" Happy replied before settling on his partner's bunch of pink/salmon hair.
"I didn't know that you can also get bored, Natsu." Cana commented on her two guildmates' action. It is very surprising for them to be bored, because knowing Natsu, he will surely find a way out to kill his time either by fighting Gray, eating fire or perhaps, by pestering Lucy.
"Well, I'm bored now." Natsu answered lazily, more like he's just forcing himself to answer her at all.
"Aye Cana! We're too lazy to go out on a job, I can't cheer Natsu because he refused to fight with Gray and—"Happy was reciting his list when Cana spit her booze out way too close to Natsu only if he didn't dodge.
"Cana! I'm not in the mood if you want a fight!" Natsu shouted which was gone unnoticed by her.
"What? You're refusing a fight? Not with me but with Gray?" she asked in astonishment.
She suddenly became worried as she touched his forehead to test if he's not sick.
"Are you sick? Should I call Porlyusica?" Natsu just eyed her not fully convinced by her fake worry. Maybe she's the one who need to go to Porlyusica.
"No. Fighting with Gray is awesome but it happens a lot. I want something new today." He answered in slight annoyance.
"We just wanted to hang out with Lucy, and maybe go fishing but she refused us, too." He added in a gloomy state as he laid his head to the table.
They are so busy with their talk that they didn't notice Lucy approached them. Walking slowly, she heard by pure accident or not, the topic they are talking about. She tucked a hair beside one ear before clearing her throat to let them acknowledge her presence.
"Yeah? Who would go out fishing in this pouring rain?" Lucy uttered leaning down on Natsu, her hands on her hips. Natsu immediately rose as he place both hands on her shoulders to keep her in place, their faces just a span away.
"We are going to be the first! Don't you like it Lucy?" Cana noticed the beam on Natsu's eyes and the sudden change of mood of her childhood nakama.
Cana let out a smile on herself. There are times that she really doesn't know what to think anymore between Natsu and Lucy, not like she's really paying that much of attention. She just happened to notice them everyday and would wonder about them seconds later. Things like 'Are they for real? Or are they really just best friends?' It is really hard to guess because their relationship is somewhat on the line of friendship and romance. They care for each other. When someone is down, the other one will surely cheer the other up. They are acting and doing what most of normal friends would do but there are some instances where Natsu will definitely do something absolutely incredible for Lucy just to make her smile. One of those marvelous ideas is uprooting an entire Sakura tree, hire a boat, tie it there, sail it down the river, and make sure Lucy will see it.
They are simply inseparable. There never comes a day that Natsu will be all alone without Lucy in sight and same goes for the blonde. They always go together, eat together, laugh together—she won't be surprised if one day, she will just hear that they already slept together!
"That's very stupid but fine!" Lucy agreed with a frown. But still, her smile didn't go unnoticed by Cana.
Lucy can pretend all she wants that she doesn't care or she can act like she is totally irritated or annoyed but deep in herself, she is happy. Cana can't speak for Lucy's feeling because she doesn't know everything but she knows, her trust towards Natsu is immeasurable.
It has never been a year since they became partners but do act like they have totally known each other for years. If only Acnologia didn't steal their time, who knows, maybe those two aren't just friends anymore. Then again, who knows what is bound to happen? You can foretell but everything still depends on how you will act. Everything still lies in your hands.
"Yay! Don't worry Lucy! Fishes are not scary even it is rainy season. In fact, they must be the one who will get scared because of you. Hihihi."
"HAPPY? Do you really want me to come?" Lucy exclaimed. While trying to catch the exceed, she lost her balance and almost tumble down. Thanks to Natsu's fast reflexes, he was able to catch Lucy before she falls. Happy flew near them.
"Hihihi. Of course I want you to come. It will surely be fun, right Natsu?" Happy said before bidding goodbyes to everyone in the guild. Cana also received thanks from Natsu for speaking to them joking that if she hadn't, they must have been gone crazy by now. Typical Cana, she just charged them a barrel of booze for her self-proclaimed precious time which was laughed out by Lucy.
"Aye Happy! It's more fun now that Lucy is here!" Natsu plastered his innocent grin as he draped an arm over her shoulders pulling her closer to him.
Lucy opened her pink frilly umbrella, fully aware of the blush creeping on her cheeks.
"Yeah. I know. Besides, it's always fun when we are together." Lucy smiled at them.
Natsu took the umbrella from her making him remove his arm on her shoulder. Lucy took the chance to grab Happy and hug him to her chest making the both of them warm. Happy snuggled closer to her, enjoying her warmth.
Cana took her drink with one gulp due to irritation.
"Those fools! They're giving me a headache! Geez." She uttered in annoyance while scratching her head.
Those two! How can they act all so friendly and lovey dovey at the same time? Or maybe she's just too drunk that she's starting to imagine things?

The next morning, a sneezing Lucy, a smiling happy and a grinning Natsu entered the guild.
"How's the fishing in the rain, Flame-head?" Gray, who is beside Cana, asked, surely asking for a fight.
They noticed the dagger looks Lucy is showering Natsu and the apologetic look when he is glancing at her.
"I-It's f-fun… Right L-Luce—?" He asked while slowly walking backwards. He is scratching the back of his head while giving her an awkward smile.
"What's so fun about having an unexpected bath on the lake while it's damn raining on whole Fiore!" Lucy shouted at the now cowering Natsu behind a chair.
"S-sorry! Sorry Lucy-sama! Please forgive me Lucy-hime!" Natsu bowed banging his head on the floor.
"Oi Happy! Come apologize too!"
"Aye Sir! Please forgive us Lucy-hime! Please forgive us!" Happy said, imitating Natsu in the process.
Acting all so friendly again, then later on, acting all mushy mushy and stuff! Cana somehow managed to memorize their relationship cycle.
"ACHOOOOO—" Lucy sneezed.
Natsu stood and walked over her who is badly blowing her nose off.
"Geez. I told you to just stay on your bed." Natsu worriedly scolded her while rubbing her back in a soothing manner.
"Don't wanna. It's sad there cause I' alone." She whispered softly making it impossible for Cana to comprehend what she said.
"You think we're gonna leave you there by yourself? Come on. No whining." He said while dragging Lucy out of the guild despite of her protests.
"I said—kyaaah! Bring me down!" He tossed her in the air and caught her on his back, giving her an instant piggy back ride.
"If you got cold, I'll make you warm then." He gave her a grin before calling Happy telling him that they are ready to go, that's why he failed to see the tint of pink dusting on his passenger's cheeks.
Cana smirked. See? She told you.

A/N: It's pretty short but I liked it so I hope you will like it, too. Kami-sama arigatou! Juvia has come finally! (insert victory pose). Trololols. Haha.
So I'm planning to add another chapter here, but I'm still contemplating whether to add or not. What do you think? Should I write another one?
I am also planning to start a chapter story of Nalu but I'm afraid it will not come out good because it's pretty dramatic. Gah! I'm so depressed and I don't know why I'm feeling like this… The feeling just came to me uninvited. Sheesh.
How are you there guys? Reviews? Please excuse my wrong spellings and any grammatical errors. I'm too lazy to reread it right now.
Have a good day minna! Jaa.
