What is this?
What is this feeling? The feeling of wanting and desiring someone so bad, you fight all your urges to keep your mind from going mad. You want to feel the touch of their hands caressing the lower sides of your waist, as they slowly glide their fingertips up your torso. You want the warmth of their body to always stay close to yours. You want that husky, sweet smelling aroma, to stay familiar in the depth of your nose. GOD, how did it ever come to this
"Oi, Lucy!" shouted the overly, joyful Tamarisk-hair colored mage.
Lucy Heartfilia was resting her head on the bar table, wondering why not a lot of people were present at the guildhall this morning.
"Is it really necessary for you to shout my name every time, you walk in?" responded the already annoyed blonde.
"Well yeah! I'm always excited to see your bored expressions every morning", retorted Natsu.
"Aye sir, Natsu's right Lucy, you need to soften up those grimaces of yours. I can already see the aging wrinkles appearing on your face", giggled the abrupt feline.
Lucy ignored that last remark, seeing as she didn't feel like dealing with Natsu and Happy's rudeness this morning.
"What do you guys want, I'm not really in the mood", the blonde asked bluntly.
"Well, Happy and I just got done redecorating our living room, and we wanted you to come check it out", smiled the pink haired mage.
"Can I do it another time? I kind of want to just rest here for a bit".
"Pleaaaase Lucy, we've been working on this for a while, and finally want some body to see it", whined the two.
Lucy considered this for a moment, and decided that since the usual entertainment is not here, she accepted their invitation.
"It' s been a while since I've been over here"
Natsu and Happy's place was neither the cleanest nor the most appealing place around, but when Lucy arrived she was impressed. The small but normal sized, cottage-like house connected from the living room to the kitchen, then traveled upstairs to "bedroom", along with their tiny bathroom. The living room was the first thing that caught the eyes of anyone entering the home of these two. Instead of, a scratched, stained sofa, there was beautiful, chestnut-colored, nylon replacement, with beige pillows to compliment. A 32-inch flat screen was mounted on the wall with a wooden exterior to match the design of the room. Along with a large rectangular rug, that looked to have the softness of a bunny. Lastly, there was a tiny wooden table with gorgeous Larkspur flowers, in a glass vase, that gave off that welcoming-vibe to the room. Overall, this part of the house looked ten times better than how Lucy last remembered.
"These two really outdid themselves… I'm shocked"
Natsu and Happy watched Lucy's face for her critique on the newly styled living room.
"Wow you guys, this room looks awesome! What made you want to redecorate?" asked the amazed blonde.
"Well... Natsu and I like staying at your place so much, we decided to make our place resemble yours in some sort", explained Happy.
"I see… well you guys did a really good job"
"Also, since we have this new HD TV we want to watch some scary movies with you tonight!" exclaimed Natsu. Lucy wasn't much of a fan of scary movies, but come on…. how could she resist! Watching movies on a HD TV! She couldn't refuse the offer, when she doesn't even own a TV at her own place.
Sitting down on this beautiful sofa, Lucy felt like she was drifting on a pile of feathers, along with cushioned clouds resting on her rear.
"So soffffftttttt "
Natsu sat right next to Lucy on the couch, which at first gave her this awkward feel of sitting this close to a man, but she eventually shifted away from him a bit. Happy curled into a ball-like formation onto Lucy's lap, making himself comfortable. Natsu reached for the remote turning on the most fearful, head-turning movies Lucy had ever laid her hazelnut eyes on. Lucy was scared for dear life and caught herself having to close her eyes more than once.
"I wonder when Happy fell asleep? He's basically using me as a mattress to snore on. Crude cat!"
Forgetting this, Lucy questioned why people would ever make such dreadful movies, like these. Lucy had noticed how Natsu's crisp eyes never left the screen, and also how close she was to him again. She wondered when his right arm had come to lay on the backrest of the sofa, behind her. The heat of his body gave off a warm sensation that reached beneath the depths of Lucy's skin. Feeling this closeness, she caught the smell, of this musky yet audacious and oriental scent. Lucy secretly sniffed Natsu, because his scent was just that addicting. She oddly enough felt like she was smoking and reaching a new "high".
"God, why is this fragrance he's giving off, smell so good. "
"Lucy you alright there, you look a bit tired? Want me to turn the movie off?"
Shocked that Natsu had actually directed his attention to her, Lucy awkwardly responded, "Oh, U-Uhm, n-no, I'm fine! Continue the movie", with a guilty expression on her pale yet, radiant face.
"You sure? Cus' I can turn it off and walk you home, since it's getting pretty late?"
"N-No, It's fine, I'm okay", she assured her male partner.
Natsu nodded, and reverted his eyes back to the TV screen.
Truthfully, Lucy wanted to maintain this close feeling she was having with Natsu. She didn't know why she was enjoying this so much. Lucy tried to distract herself by regaining her full attention onto the horror film they were currently viewing. Unfortunately for her, she could not resist Natsu's sweet smell, and returned her concentration back to him. Doing this, lead her to overlooking all of Natsu's qualities that she never paid much attention to before. She scanned the muscular, undaunted teen that was sitting right next to her and started speculating from head to toe.
His spiky yet in place, salmon shade of hair…
That almost tan completion that complimented him very well…
Those muscular biceps that not many average male teenagers acquired, along with that 8 pack on his torso that she never really acknowledged…
This delicious, heat, he brings off, which any girl, would love to be next to...
"Natsu…"
"Good morning sleepyhead, did you sleep well", laughed the dragon slayer who was now standing in front of the half-awake blonde.
"Shit… When did I fall asleep?"
Lucy rubbed her eyes, trying to understand the situation clearly. She awoke to a pillow lying beneath her head, and a large, but soft blanket covering on top of her. Lucy gave Natsu a questioning stare, hoping that he will explain to her what happened.
"You fell asleep on my lap halfway through the fourth movie", explained the oddly enough cheerful male.
"Oh…. Why didn't you wake me up, so I could walk home?"
Did I really fall asleep on his lap? I hope he doesn't start getting any ideas.
"Well… because you looked so peaceful sleeping, I didn't want to bother and wake you. Plus it was already too late", smiled Natsu.
He then murmured something else that Lucy didn't quit catch, but judging by his gestures he was embarrassed to be saying it. Lucy tried to break the awkwardness that was now between them.
"Uhm…okay, so uh… where'd Happy go?"
"He went to the guild early this morning to visit Charles and Wendy, I think they all have plans to go somewhere together."
"That seems fun, well I guess I better go, I pretty much over stayed my welcome", said Lucy while, putting on her black leather boots, and grabbing her bag that she carelessly left on the small table.
"D-Don't GO", exclaimed the hesitant pink male, "I-I-I mean, don't go with out leaving … uh… your…. Oh yeah your house keys! They fell out your bag, so I set them on the counter top in the kitchen". Natsu turned around and headed into the kitchen to retrieve Lucy's house keys
Lucy caught the reactions in Natsu's face, before he walked away and he seemed really embarrassed about something. Well, whatever it was he'll get over it.
Natsu came back and handed Lucy her keys. "Well, I had fun. I'll see you later, okay Natsu." Lucy smiled warmly giving Natsu a comforting feeling, of knowing that she'll get home safely. He waved goodbye to Lucy and he was now alone in this house with just the coconut lime scent staining the couch. He was now left with the smell of Lucy infesting his nostrils with such a sweet pheromone.
Lucy was now close to her place, trying to remember how great it felt to be so close to Natsu. His aroma, and amazing physique. She wanted to rewind time and go back to the moment when they were both side by side on that nylon comforter.
"Fuck, what am I doing? Thinking about Natsu like this!?"
The blonde shook those thoughts out her head and entered the house keys into the lock of her door.
THE NIGHT BEFORE
Why was it so fucking hard to concentrate on this goddamned movie? Was it because a beautiful blonde girl was now fast asleep on his lap? His partner, his best friend…Lucy, what was it about you that made Natsu's senses reach their limit. What was this problem inside his stomach that gave him this ticklish feeling?
Natsu quietly watched as his best friend was sleeping so pleasantly.
His feline friend had gotten up and flew upstairs to their "bedroom", leaving just Natsu and Lucy together on the couch.
With his powerful nose, he had caught every whiff of that coconut lime fragrance that she presented to him. Natsu built up the courage to softly take his hand and graze his fingertips across the opening in her shirt that was left visible. Lucy shifted slightly, causing Natsu to quickly retract his hands from that delicate pale skin of hers. Natsu tried to fight all his urges that any normal male teenager would have if a beautiful girl was this close to him. But…But she's so cute while she's sleeping, I can't disturb her. He realized ,without a mirror, that he was blushing really hard.
Natsu lifted himself from under Lucy's head and replaced his lap with one of the beige pillows against the couch. He then grabbed a blanket large enough to cover her entire body, and laid it on top of her. Watching how comfortable she looked while sleeping. He noticed what looked to be her house keys that were on the floor, and quietly put them on the table in the kitchen. Natsu whispered his farwells for the night, and joined his blue friend upstairs.
"Goodnight Lucy", he smiled warmly.
