The Potion

Summary: After Lucy takes a mysterious love potion she suddenly clings to Natsu and won't let him go, but does this event become an eye opener for the two. A couple awkward situations, and confession.

Natsu P.O.V

"C'mon Happy, we have to find something that Lucy will like," I ran out of the house making my way to the Magnolia markets.

"I don't see why we can't just get her fish," Happy complained.

I sighed, "Lucy's a girl and she likes girly things, and fish is not girly. We have to get her something that she'll appreciate."

Lucy had been so kind to me the past few days; in fact she had been extra kind. Like she was actually inviting me to come over I mean not that I didn't want to stay, but she always seemed red a lot when I said 'of course!' I strolled the streets passing many stalls and taking time to look at the ones that seemed interesting, I was starting to get hungry and impatient. Maybe I should just call Lucy and ask what she wants! Oh wait, it has to be a surprise.

"You there boy why are looking down?" I heard an old man's voice behind me.

He was seated at a small table with cloths and candle around it, his skin was awfully wrinkly and the smell of flowers was prominent in the air, "Oi gramps what's it to ya?"

He put on a small smile, "shopping for a girl?"

I was immediately intrigued, "how did you know?"

"Natsu I don't trust this guy," Happy whispered.

I waved him off and the old man continued to speak, "for your girlfriend?"

"Well we are best friends."

"Are you and Lucy going out?" Happy asked.

I looked at him, "that's irrelevant."

"So what are you selling here Gramps?"

He held his hands out gesturing to all the different colored bottles and powder before him, "a wide range of female products, ones that I feel will be to your significant other's liking."

I put my hand on my chin observing the various products; the pink one specifically caught my eye, "what's this one?"

"A perfume."

"Just a perfume?" Happy said flying over me.

The old man shook his head, "no, no, no this is the kind of perfume that draws lovers together."

"LOVERS!" Happy and I both exclaimed.

Happy looked at me, "Natsu, I don't think Lucy would want that."

I thought for a moment, Lucy and I were already close. I mean how much closer could we get? Like Alzack and Bisca. The idea made me smile, "is it magic?" I asked hoping it wasn't.

The man answered a no a little quickly; it was a bit suspicious but whatever right. I had a major grin on my face, "I'll get it!"

Happy gasped saying it wasn't a good idea but I wanted to get something that would make Lucy and I relationship stronger, not to mention something she'd appreciate.

Lucy P.O.V

"Hey Gray, Erza have you seen Natsu?" I asked the two mages sitting at the bar.

They both looked at each other, "he went out," Erza said suspiciously.

I raised an eyebrow at the two of them, "fine, don't tell me," I bit my lip; I just couldn't help but wonder where he could possibly be.

Knowing Natsu he could be getting himself in all kinds of trouble, I sighed deciding to head home and not worry. Just as I was walking out Mira called, "Lucy," she whispered to me, "I heard Natsu was getting something special for you."

A lightning bolt shot through me, no literally a lightning bolt shot through me. Laxus had brushed up against me, "careful," I said to him, "you could hurt someone Laxus."

He looked at me expressionless, "still looking for Natsu, blondie?"

I shied away, "he was in town today with that damn cat," he explained.

"Thanks," I ran out of the guild, why was everyone always asking if I was looking for him. Yeah sure I was but that doesn't mean I want you harassing me about. I arrived home, unlocking the door, throwing my bad on the bed and… "Ow" I heard Natsu's voice.

I looked over at him with a smile and hugged him, nice and tight. I quickly let go realizing my actions, "sorry, I thought you were really injured from my bag so… I uh yeah. What are you doing here?" I asked firmly.

He gave me the 'are you okay' look, "I came to give you something, by the way are you feeling alright because you've being acting strange all week?"

I took a deep breath, "I'm fine…" I wanted to ask what he had for me, "did you want to go on a mission or something?"

He smiled, "as long as you're okay, but maybe a mission tomorrow. I bought something for you," he threw it to me.

I caught it with a smile; it was a cute and tiny box. I slowly opened it revealing a pink bottle, which read, 'For love, let this mixture bring us closer than ever.' I put the box down taking the perfume and smelling it. The aroma of roses and fresh rain filled my nostril, it was beautiful. Suddenly my body became very light and I wanted to sleep, "this is beautiful Natsu."

He looked away smiling, "I'm glad you like it, by the way can I stay the night? Happy has gone home and I wanna sleep here."

I nodded feeling really sleepy, "sure thing," my voice was drowsy.

Natsu removed his top and shoes hopping straight into my bed, "night Luce."

I managed to get dressed in the bathroom considering how tired I was, due to my tiredness I only managed to put on an oversized shirt and barely brush my teeth, "time to sleep," I said to myself.

Natsu P.O.V

I woke up the next morning feeling very comfortable, the smell of vanilla and a little turned on. I opened my eyes analyzing my surroundings; Lucy completely had her body around me. Her arm around my neck, breast pressed on my torso moving up and down with her breath and her smooth legs wrapped around mine, I took a deep breath trying to analyses the situation, "Lucy are you awake?"

She smiled moving closer, "yes Natsu."

She was consciously doing this; she is completely in control, "are you okay… with this?"

She nodded her head, opening her eyes and staring up at me, "morning Natsu."

Her eyes were really big and beautiful, lips full and certain glow radiating off her, "morning?"

I sat there for a moment then decided to get up, I ran to the bathroom taking a deep breath. What the hell is going on with Lucy? I showered changing in to the spare clothes I had left here; I came out to see Lucy on the bed looking all cute in the oversized shirt which belonged to me. I stood in the middle of the room as Lucy looked up at me, she got up beginning to unbutton the shirt, "you took a shower without me, wanna join me this time," she had almost unbuttoned her shirt to the point of me seeing her very exposed. I quickly turned away pushing her into the bathroom, "you're no fun," she said through the door.

I ran out of her apartment straight to the Guild, this was all too weird. As I entered Fairy Tail I went straight over to Happy who was sitting with Wendy and Charla, "Happy I need to talk to you about Lucy."

"Is it about the perfume, I told you she wouldn't like it."

I ushered him over to the side, "no this is different Lucy is acting strange."

Mira overheard and came over, "you always say that Natsu, and maybe she didn't like the gift you gave her."

Wendy jumped up in excitement, "Natsu gave Lucy a gift, how cute. Did she like it?"

I scratched my head in nervousness, "well… I think she liked it."

Lucy had suddenly run through the Guild doors; she was wearing the typical mini skirt, tank top and boots looking exceptionally cute. I gulped, "oh no."

"Natsu!" She ran over to me smashing a kiss on my lips, the tasted like strawberries also very soft.

The whole guild gasped, this is bad. I wanted to kiss Lucy again the moment she pulled away but it didn't feel right, "Lucy what's going on with you?" I asked her whispering.

"What is going on?" Erza asked red all over. She was happy but had many questions, "when did this happen?"

I shook my head, "nothing happened, this is a big mis…" I went to finish but Lucy had her finger on my lips sending shivers down my spine.

She looked around the guild staring at the familiar faces, "I love Natsu, and he loves me. We're destined to be together," she had herself wrapped around my arm.

I couldn't have felt more uncomfortable with the whole guild watching this happen, "Lucy, when did this all start?" Levy asked.

"Last night, when Natsu dragged me into bed and slept with me…" I covered her mouth before she could finish, Wendy covered he ears with cheeks all red.

"Wendy don't listen to this," Charla came to her aid.

Mira leaned on the table in disbelief, "Damn, flame freak you finally did it," Gray gave me a thumbs up.

After ignoring the other entire question that came flying Lucy and I took a seat at a table, I had to figure out what the hell was going on. Lucy wouldn't stop playing with my hair as we sat; Gray and Erza just stared in fascination but mainly in disbelief.

"Hey Gray, Erza," Lucy said, "don't you reckon Natsu has the most beautiful hair?"

Erza and Gray laughed out loud, "what this salamander?" Gajeel called out.

After the two had finished their laughing fit, they got serious and started asking questions, "so when did this all start?" Erza asked.

"Last night."

"Just randomly," Gray asked.

I shook my head then Happy fly over, "Natsu got her this strange perfume, the old man said it was perfume but he seemed off."

"Well I thought it was just perfume till Lucy smelt it, I just wanted to get her something she'd appreciate," I confessed.

"Isn't that cute, Natsu's made another idiotic move," Gray joked.

I clenched a fist but Lucy stopped me, "Natsu it's okay, I like being this close to you."

I couldn't tell if that was normal Lucy speaking or the one under the control of the potion but it sounded sincere, "we have to fix this," I said.

"You're right," Gray agreed, "no girl should have to hopelessly cling to you," he started giggling again. I grunted in annoyance.

It didn't take Levy long to find the potion in her books and how to fix it, "so what do I have to do?" I asked.

Levy read the page, then looked over Gajeel who was also reading it; they all passed the book around exchanging look, "what is it?" I hadn't even seen it yet. Lucy snatched the book from Laxus who was having a look, Lucy looked up and me with a smirk the out the book down throwing herself at me. The guild giggled, "I like this Lucy better," Laxus said.

I looked at the book and it said that I had to wait it out, it could vary from days to weeks or I could pass the infatuation of hers to someone else but that would mean she'd be fawning over some other guy and no way is that happening. I don't want some other guy taking advantage of Lucy; I mean is this really what she wants?

"I guess you're stuck with me," she whispered seductively.

The day had gone by and people had left me to fend for myself with an overly attached Lucy, Gray was the last person left in the Guild just after he had said goodbye to Juvia. I ran over to him while Lucy was in the bathroom, "Gray I need your help."

He raised an eyebrow shirtless, "why?"

"How do I deal with an overly attached Lucy, she wants to do things to me," I mean the idea didn't sound totally bad but if let her and the real Lucy came back she'd kill me.

Gray waved his hands, "okay please I don't wanna know besides why would I know how to deal with an overly attached girl?"

I slouched like it was obvious, "J-U-V-I-A c'mon help me out."

"One, Juvia is not as bad as Lucy right now and two, you actually like Lucy so you'll figure something out. Just don't do anything you'll regret."

Gray left with some good advice, he was right. I really like Lucy and I can handle her just don't do anything stupid. Lucy came out of the bathroom skipping towards me, "did I keep you waiting?"

I shook my head, "not even a little while."

We started walking back, the moon was out and Lucy was looking really good on my arm, "Lucy, are you back to normal yet?"

"Of course I am," she went on her toes kissing me on the cheek.

I sighed, finally we arrived at her place and she just needed to sleep. Maybe that would help her get back to normal, "do you want hot chocolate?"

"Are you sure you don't wanna sleep?"

"I'm sure," she sang, "I know you like marshmallows and extra hot."

"You remember?"

She looked at me like I was crazy, "of course, how can I not remember if the man I love likes it extra hot with marshmallows," she giggled.

I felt a small blush; would Lucy ever say that to me if she wasn't under the influence of a potion? We sat down on her bed drinking the hot chocolate all snuggled up, Lucy stared out the widow glaring at the stars, "Mira always said how we would end up together…" she laughed, "I guess she was right. We are meant to me.

I was taken back, "Yeah… still wanna go on a mission tomorrow?" Thought I'd change the subject.

She looked at me excitedly, "just the two of us, no Happy."

"But he always comes along."

She put her hot chocolate down then took mine out of my hands and put it down, she leaned in closer on all fours, "I just want it to be a little more intimate."

I was frozen on the spot, not wanting to move but knew I had to, "nah he should come."

"I love you Natsu and I want to show you how much," she wrapped her arms around my neck placing her lips on mine, she had seated herself on my lap with her legs around me, we had begun making out. Mira had told me Lucy had never kissed a guy but that was hard to believe now, she was squirming a lot and moaning I couldn't help but get a hard on. This is bad I don't want to stop, everything about Lucy was beautiful and she made me feel really good but I had to stop. I pushed her away slowly.

"What's wrong" She asked, to my surprise I had unknowingly removed her top and she was sitting there in just a bra. I just stared, "wanna touch them? Not like you haven't before."

This Lucy was very naughty and bad, I did kind of like it but I knew my Lucy wouldn't want this. I put the blanket over her, "goodnight Lucy," I got up but she grabbed my scarf, "I can't stay here anymore."

Tears started to appear like crystal in the moonlight, "I'm sorry…"

I was going to ask why she was apologizing but she spoke before me, "I don't want to lose you Natsu," she let go of my scarf closing herself into the blankets, I couldn't just leave her now.

I took of my shoes hopping into bed with her once again.
