Hello my little wolfies~ Or readers, if you prefer me calling you that.
This is my first Fairy Tail fanfiction, so it may seem a bit amateur at first, just warning. ^^
I don't own Fairy Tail! Or else NaLu would've been canon...

Natsu and Happy joyfully pranced through the forest, after just sleeping at Lucy's house, and she slowly walked behind them, looking at her feet. When she looked up at them, she just saw them fooling around as usual, and sighing, Lucy plopped down on a tree stump, glumly fiddling with her petite fingers.
I woke up, with Natsu's warm, muscular arms around me, and when he saw me he just laughed, and greeted me, with no other emotion in his face while I could feel mine burning up...
Being the dense idiot Natsu was, he didn't notice much. He didn't seem to care that he woke up in an intimate position with Lucy; he didn't seem to care as Lucy sat there, alone, in the forest, just hanging around and taking a break from all the missions they accomplish.

"Luce...?"
Lucy shivered, as she looked up, into the onyx eyes of the pinkette mage before her.

"You ok...?"
The Celestial Mage nervously chuckled, nodding her head in a mechanical way.

"U-Uhm, fine! Great!"

Natsu cocked his head, and frowned in disbelief as he sat beside her on the wide tree stump.
Damn...He's so close to me.
Natsu's hot breath was felt on Lucy's porcelain, and delicate cheeks, as they shaded to a light shade of pink.

"You can tell me anything, Luce! We are best friends, right?"
I thought it would be more than "best friends" by now...

"Y-Yeah...Partners.."
The blonde chuckled, as the pink-haired dragonslayer smiled a toothy grin.

"Then tell me what's getting you down!"
Lucy looked down, as she blinked before taking a sharp inhale.

"Um...I stubbed my toe on a tree stump, and it really hurts..."
Lucy smiled with all the fake pain she could muster, and rubbed the tip of her black leather boot, as Natsu stared down at the article of clothing, and then nodded, smiling goofily.

"Oh, ok, Luce, hope your toe gets better!"
Natsu laughed softly, and then scampered off to chat with his blue cat, which in Lucy's chocolate-brown eyes, seemed more important than her.

How can you be so dense, Natsu...Not even bothering to ask more questions about it, in suspicion..AGH! What am I thinking?! Natsu's my best friend, I shouldn't be thinking about him like this, I should be hanging out with him like usual, and just having fun. Of course, though, that wouldn't express my feelings enough, would it..?

Natsu stared at the blonde beauty secretly, under the large shade of a tall tree, and sighing, sunk down, as Happy looked at him in confusion.

"What's wrong, Natsu?"
The dragonslayer fiddled with his callused hands, looking down.

"Its Luce. She's acting like a tree stump got her down, but I know its something else...I can sense it..."

"It just means one thing, Natsu.."
The pinkette looked up at the flying blue cat for an answer, running a hand through his salmon hair.

"You liiike Lucy!"

"S-Shut up! I do not!"

As the tense moment was killed by Happy's childish reply, the pink-haired mage's thoughts, showed he wasn't as dense as he seemed.

So whaddya think? :D I'll be continuing this story, so, hope you review, and help fix any errors at all! Thanks for reading!
