A/N: Just a little fun idea I had, original credit goes to The Ultimate Penguin for swapping Erza and Natsu but it was a Harem and I wanted to write it out as the Anime, starting from their childhood and advancing from there, I hope you all like it and as is my way Naza paring in this one might change up my other pairings this time around :).

Natsu sat alone eating a roll of bread peering at the other members of his grandfather's guild, the dark haired boy Gray was yelling at the Card master, Cana, complaining about how bad his 'lucky day' was going. Natsu turned back to the table to find a small girl sitting opposite him, he raised an eyebrow at her, she was barely tall enough to see of the table, she had large brown eyes and short red hair she looked up at him with what looked like curiosity.

"Can I help you?" Natsu asked after a minutes or two under the gaze.

"I was just wondering why you eat alone?" The little girl asked

Natsu looked at her with his one good eye "I don't really know anyone at the guild, so I just thought it best if I leave them alone."

The girls eyes seemed to get bigger and she got up on the seat opposite him "I'm Erza by the way, Erza Dragneel."

Natsu just watched her with curiosity "Natsu." he said quickly.

Natsu watched the girl stare at his food longingly he smirked and picked up the other roll offering it too her, she took it gratefully and practically ate the whole thing in a single bite, Natsu's eyes widened and she smiled at him "Why did you sit here?" he asked

Erza tapped her shin and looked up for a moment before shrugging "You eat alone all the time, I thought maybe you would want some company and since you always eat at the same time I am going to come back every day to talk to you right here okay?"

Natsu raised his eyebrow at her before sighing "You can do as you please." he said before getting up from his chair, he walked out of the guild. As Natsu was closing the door he Heard Gray shout something about flame-brain and he shook his head. Natsu sat into he sun watching a river flow in front of him, he brushed the bandage around his eye tenderly as a few bad memories rushed into the forefront of his mind.

"Found you!" A voice her recognized surprised him and he felt a weight on his back.

"Do you need something," Natsu asked trying and failing to mask pain in his voice "I am not in the mood right now."

Erza shuffled around on her knees and looked at him intently "Why are you crying?"

Natsu looked at her "None of your business."

Erza shrugged "Okay, tough guy just remember we are friends now so you can talk to me anytime."

Natsu shook his head and stood up "I am going home."

Erza looked up at him and squirmed for a moment like she wanted to ask him something, he watched her before sighing "What is it?"

"Well I uh, I don't have anywhere to stay and I don't get along with Gray so I was um wondering if I could stay with you, just for one night I promise I won't wreck anything and I will be super quiet." Erza looked at him hopefully.

Her eyes are creepily large, Natsu thought absently before sighing "Don't you have parent's or something?"

"Well I had Igneel but one day he was just gone," Erza answered "And master Makarov told me that if I wanted to join the guild I need to find somewhere in town to live so I don't have to make the walk from the east forest every day."

"Do you want to join the guild?" Natsu inquired

Erza nodded "Yeah, more than anything else everyone there is so cool, even if they fight."

Natsu looked at the girl in surprise "Fine one night and no more."

They walked in relative silence until Erza spoke again "What kind of Magic do you use?"

Natsu gave her a sidelong look before answering "I study Requip magic and sword play."

"Will you be able to show me someday?" Erza asked excitedly

"I will show you when we get home," Natsu said absently "What about you?"

"Oh, I am a Dragon," Erza said proudly "Well not really a dragon obviously but I use dragon magic."

Natsu peered down at the girl beside him "Isn't that one of the lost magic's where did you learn it?"

"From Igneel dur." Erza looked at him like he was crazy.

"Who is this Igneel you said he just disappeared one day." Natsu asked

"Oh, Igneel is a fire dragon he taught me all about his magic and how to use it." Erza answered with a wide grin.

Natsu got a picture in his mind, A large roaring dragon spewing flames everywhere and he shook his head "A dragon huh, cool." he managed to say nervously.

"There you are!" Natsu turned around to see Gray fuming at him and Erza.

"You want something Gray?" Natsu asked

"You know what I want Natsu, Fight me!" Gray demanded pointing at him.

"Um Gray, where are your clothes?" Erza asked

Gray looked down and realized he was naked "Shut up Flame-Brain this doesn't concern you."

"I heard you challenge less than an hour ago, are you sure you want to do this in a weakened state?" Natsu asked

"The old man broke us up before we could do anything," Erza said scuffing her shoe on the ground "Lucky for Gray here I would have beaten him into next week!"

"All right Gray," Natsu smiled "Go ahead hit me with your best shot."

"Ice make, Hammer!" he threw a large hammer made of ice at Natsu, Erza watched as a dark purple circle appeared in front of Natsu, he pulled a sword seemingly form nowhere, she watched as he almost effortlessly cut the ice in two before it hit him, it landed with a loud crash behind him, Natsu dashed forward and put his sword at Gray's throat.

"I win again," He said with a small smile "Honestly Gray try making something other than a hammer just once, instead of fighting me go practice your magic."

Gray swallowed hard as the sword disappeared "Yeah, Whatever and hey what are you doing hanging out with Flame head over here, she your new girlfriend I thought you liked being alone."

Erza blushed lightly and Natsu glared at him "Gray, go home."

Gray gulped again at the almost murderous look in Natsu's eye and nodded before turning around an taking off at a dead run.

Natsu shook his head and sighed "Hurry up."

Not waiting to see if Erza followed him or not he strode past her and continued towards his home "So that's requip magic huh?"

Natsu Nodded.

"You aren't going to talk again for awhile are you?"

He nodded again.

Erza sighed "Are you really that embarrassed about people assuming I am your girlfriend, I mean come on I am not that bad."

"It's not that at all," Natsu said simply "I couldn't care less what anybody thinks."

Erza huffed "You know that tough guy act is starting to get on my nerves."

"I still don't care," Natsu said simply as he opened the door to his home he gestured for her to come in and closed the door "Home sweet home I guess."

Erza stared around wondrously she had never been inside a house before, the guild hall wasn't like this at all she noticed a big brown thing in the corner and pointed at it "What's that?"

Natsu frowned "A couch." Erza took the time to point out everything in his home and ask him about it when she had finally finished he heard her stomach growl.

"Sit down and stay here," Natsu commanded as he walked into another part of the house, she heard a few noises and smelt something that made her mouth water, after around half an hour Natsu came back out of the door with a two plates he set one down in front of her and began eating on her own "There you go."

Erza stared down at her plate with an almost wild look in her eye, Natsu watched her over his own food, she picked up a fork slowly and began to eat "This is really good!" she exclaimed before wolfing the food down at an almost blinding rate. Natsu just watched her in surprise when she had finished he held out his own plate to her and she accepted it with a confused look about her.

"I'm not hungry," Natsu said quickly before she could ask him any more questions "Go ahead."

He got up and walked into his bedroom and pinched the bridge of his nose with a sigh, he was enveloped in a golden light and when then it blinked out, he stood in baggy black pants and a white singlet, he laid down on his bed with another sigh he stared at the ceiling, he turned his head to see Erza standing in the doorway she Yawned tired and crawled onto the bed she curled up beside him and within seconds her could hear her snoring softly, he watched her for e few minutes and sighed maybe having her around wouldn't be so bad "Well it certainly wouldn't be as quiet." he chuckled out, she stirred slightly and seemed to be reaching out for something in her sleep, he held out his hand and she grabbed it, a small smile spread across her face as she slept and Natsu shook his head looks like I am going to bed now too.

A/N: All right guys I hope you like it, I don't know how I am going to advance this but I certainly did enjoy writing it, it is supposed to be slightly comedic for the first few chapter's then I will put it into a more serious tone.
