The Valentine's Day Event had successfully passed without a hitch. There weren't many couples competing in the activities, but that made it easier for Natsu and Lucy to win; which they did, every single time. Love shined true that day, and proved that a strong relationship was the key to happiness.
Natsu was currently walking Lucy home, a comfortable silence hung between them like the cool breeze. If anybody could see them, they'd say everything was as it had been. That was alright with them, since they wanted to go on their first official date before going public.
The sky was ablaze with reds, and oranges as the sun began to rise. Lucy and Natsu sat on Lucy's bed, suggled in a blanket. Their gazed sat on the sunrise for mere moments before looking at each other. A smile grew on Natsu's face, happy to see those brown eyes that belonged to the woman he loved.
"Even though I can't remember the last time I woke up this early, I like spending time with you like this," Lucy said.
'My sleeping schedule is going to be messed up now,' Lucy thought, like she could have said no. Something in the blond just couldn't refuse the date idea from Natsu, even if she had wanted to. Maybe it was her fluttering heart, or those puppy eyes that Natsu had given her.
"I do too!" Natsu agreed. A grumble from the boy's stomach signaled it was time for breakfast. Natsu laughed nervously, as Lucy got off the bed.
"Why don't we go to the kitchen," Lucy said, "I should have something for breakfast." Natsu happily jumped off the bed, and followed Lucy over to the kitchen. Inside the fridge sat a nearly empty carton of eggs, and some bacon.
"Bacon and Eggs?" Lucy asked. Her gazed landed on her pink haired boyfriend, who had a toothy grin on his face.
"Sounds good, especially if you're the one cooking!" Lucy blushed a bright crimson, that must have rivaled Erza's hair, as she quickly looked away. Why was her heart beating as fast as it was?
"Are you alright?" Natsu asked, concern laced his voice. The girl froze for a second before she nervously laughed.
"Yeah, how do you like your eggs?" Natsu leaned forward, and Lucy felt her heart speed up as her face heated up.
"As sunny as your smile," Natsu whispered into Lucy's ear. His warm breath briefly brushed against her ear, which sent shivers down her spine. The pinkette quickly kissed Lucy's lips before leaving the lovestruck blond in the kitchen.
Natsu's face was flushed as he sat on Lucy's bed. Happiness had bubbled inside his heart, causing him to place his fist where his heart is. It had been a miracle that he told her that at all. Maybe those rumors he heard about romance were true.
'Love changes a person,' Natsu thought with a small smile. His eyes closed as he thought about his future with Lucy. They'd announce their relationship, get married, and have possibly have a child or two.
Lucy had brought breakfast to the table minutes ago, but couldn't draw her attention away from the happy expression Natsu had on his face at the moment. It looked peaceful, and so full of happiness. What had cause that expression on his face?
"Lucy, come here," Natsu said. Lucy jumped slightly, but was quick to approach her boyfriend. Before she could say anything, Lucy was flung onto the bed. Natsu placed both hands on either side of her head, as his knee was in between her legs.
"I love you, Lucy!" Natsu had quickly placed a kiss on her lips, preventing her reply. Lucy was shocked for a moment, before she returned the kiss with the same passion Natsu had been giving it. Breakfast was all but forgotten at this point.
