Lucy sighed and leaned her forehead against the shower wall, allowing the warmth of the water to run over and soothe her tired muscles. Her eyes closed slowly as she rest a hand on the wall, thinking about this last job with Natsu. She hissed in pain as the water managed to hit a particularly sore spot on her back; probably where that stupid mage had managed to throw Virgo into her. Why the flame brain even thought that throwing the celestial spirit was a good idea, she had no clue. Then again, she rarely had a clue when it came to Natsu.
She shook her head quickly. Why was she thinking of Natsu in the shower? When she wasn't doing the miscellaneous tasks for the mission, fighting him tooth and nail to get on a train, and lamenting the amount of damage expenses they had to pay, Lucy usually ended up trying to sleep, but consistently being interrupted by Natsu. Surely after a week with him, she'd be desperate to think of anything else? But then again…that boy was ripped. An understatement if there ever was one; Natsu unknowingly tended to draw Lucy's attention in more ways than just collateral damage.
Speaking of collateral damage, was that a crash in her room?
"Yo, Luce!"
….Crap.
"Luce?"
Oh no, what to do, what to say?
"Lucyyyy, where are you?"
Shit. Shit. Shit. She wasn't prepared to see his musculature while she, herself was naked. Lucy didn't think she'd be able to control her actions. There was a sudden hammering on the door, and she squeaked, whipping around to press her back against the shower wall. She grabbed at the shower curtain, covering herself to the best of her ability before he could come barging in. In spite of herself, Lucy tried her best to prevent this from occurring.
"Natsu! I'm in the shower, DON'T YOU DARE COM-"
Crash
Lucy let out a sharp yelp, pulling the shower curtain around herself even further as the dragon slayer looked up from where he was on the floor.
Idiot.
"You know, normally you break down a door with your foot, not your whole body." She said sharply, her irritation evident.
"Hey, it worked, didn't?" He said, a smirk crossing his face as he propped himself up on his elbows to enjoy the view.
Lucy raised an eyebrow, momentarily unaware of what that sly look on his face was about. That is, until she looked down a bit and blushed furiously. "GET OUT, YOU IDIOT!"
His smirk widened, "Come over here and push me out,"
Lucy pressed herself further against the wall, taken aback by his sudden change in mood. "W-what?!" Granted, she was fighting the small smile twitching at the corners of her lips, but what struck her as odd was the forwardness he was displaying. Natsu, being a bit (alright extremely) romantically-awkward, tended to let her take the lead in their private lives.
Lucy's train of thought was broken as she noticed Natsu begin to stand up, pulling the sleeves of his vest off his shoulders. She watched in shock as he let it fall to the bathroom floor, taking a step towards her. Oh geez, were her neighbors nailing in a painting, or was that her heart thudding. muscles, muscles everywhere. She ran her tongue over her suddenly dry lips, trying to think of a reason why she should be protesting. He took another step towards her and she tightened her hold on the curtain in her hands. She barely noticed that the water was still running or the fact that Natsu's hand was creeping along the top of his waistband. What she did notice was the distance between their faces getting smaller by the second, and the smirk growing even more on his face.
"Oh what the fuck," she finally decided, rolling her eyes and opening the curtain to let him in. "I'm not going to get past his stubborn streak in any case," she rationalized to herself, refusing to acknowledge defeat by saying she actually wanted him there. She turned back to the shower head, closing her eyes when she heard his feet make contact with the showers floor.
Arms slowly wrapped around her waist, and his breath brushed her shoulder, his hair tickling her ear before the water saturated it and made it lie flat against his shuddered as lips came into contact with the skin of her neck and bit down the gasp that threatened to make itself known. She moved her head to the side, resting against his shoulder as she felt his arms guide themselves lower, hands beginning to explore her body.
"Lucee," he whined against her skin, "why were you mad at me this past week?"
Lucy frowned in confusion. Mad? She hadn't been mad. Irritated (as she usually was) with him, but ma- Oh.
"Natsu, there are going to be times we can't sleep together, get used to it," she said, a blush covering her face.
"But I don't like sleeping without you, Luce."
Her blush intensified, but her nose wrinkled a little in frustration as she remembered how euphemisms tended to go right over his head, "Well, I meant more in a sexual sense, but we can still just sleep together during those times. You were just wanting to do more last week."
"I can't help it, Lucy. You're just so.." He murmured softly into her skin, moving his lips up her neck and to her ear. His breath made her shiver and she struggled to keep her voice from coming out as shaky as she felt.
"So… what?"
He growled a little and gently bit her shoulder, "Don't know enough words to say it," he mumbled around her skin.
Lucy shivered again, all coherent thought nearly escaping her hold. Biting her lip, she gained control of herself and whirled around, staring him in the eye. "Well, last week doesn't matter anymore," she said, a grin crossing her face before she leaned up to kiss him. She felt him grin against her lips as he drove her back against the wall. It quickly disappeared as he let out a groan, kissing her hungrily. Lucy giggled and kissed him back for several moments before pushing him back, ignoring the little growl of protest he unleashed.
"Okay, Natsu, time for you to learn about a little thing called foreplay." she said, a smirk growing on her face.
A look of confusion flickered cross his face, but he quickly caught on as she kissed her way along his shoulder and down his chest, letting her tongue run along the clearly defined lines of his toned stomach.
"Luce?" he asked a little hesitantly, trying to make sure his idea of what she was doing was actually what she was doing and, if so, if she was really okay with it.
"Shut up," she said as she dipped her tongue into his navel.
"O-okay," he responded, the light touches and caresses tickling him and making his stomach jerk inward of its own volition.
In spite of himself, he let out a surprisingly high-pitched squeak as one hand reached around and smoothed over his rear. The sound was so unexpected, that Lucy and to pull back and duck her head, trying desperately to stifle the giggles that threatened to spill from her throat.
Natsu blushed, but started to laugh a little, too, before gasping as Lucy unexpectedly leaned forward and flicked her tongue over his tip.
"Shit," he thought, twitching as the disparity of temperature between the shower and Lucy's tongue caught up to him.
Lucy, for her part, glanced upward and found her gaze captured and held by the intense stare he was giving her. The desperation for more nearly glowed within his eyes, and Lucy enjoyed the feeling of having this much power over him.
Refusing to break eye contact took more confidence than she was positive she had, but she leaned forward again and slowly wrapped her lips around his head, one hand moving up to grasp the rest of him. This being the first time she had done this, and the sum of her experience in this situation adding up to the amount of books she had read secretly in the darkest part of the night, Lucy discovered very quickly that just jumping head first (pun absolutely intended) wouldn't get her anywhere productive. Bit by bit she began to move her head up and down. When Natsu hissed and requested she try to hold back on the teeth, she blushingly obliged. However, her embarrassment soon died as one of his hands tentatively came up to cup the back of her head. A glance to the side revealed the death grip he had on the shower handle, and, in a corner of her mind, she was grateful he managed not to hold her hair that tightly.
The entire process was somewhat uncomfortable, but watching him fight furiously with himself to not take control acted as a rather large rush. Occasionally, when she pressed her tongue a certain way, or rubbed her thumb over what she assumed was a sensitive nerve, she could feel the odd sensation of him twitching while in her mouth. Lucy was also surprised at how often she had to stop in order to relax the ache that was growing in her jaw. None of her books had mentioned how difficult this entire process could be!
Back and forth, back and forth, Lucy eventually fell into a rhythm that Natsu seemed to enjoy, based on the periodic tensing of the hand nestled in her hair. Every now and again, he would let out a low noise from the back of his throat, and his head would fall back. Say what you will about Lucy's efforts in this endeavor, she quickly came to the conclusion that that particular view made it all worth it.
Natsu's hands twitched as his muscles began to tense. If she continued for much longer, he wouldn't be able to control his actions wi-
"Lucy! What happened to your bathroom doo- N-n-natsu?"
Erza's voice rang out loud and clear as she made her way into Lucy's home, stopping in the doorway of the bathroom, horror spreading across her features. Lucy and Natsu froze, identical expressions of horror reflecting back at the redhead.
Shit.
Ello once again! Here I am, continuing to avoid my responsibilities to HIWTHI and FBOW (to my undying shame. it's been what, 6, 7 months? D:) and uploading more one shots from the NALU Love Fest 2014 on Tumblr! WEWT
This one is fancy smanchy because it was COWRITTEN with cinnamontoastkden, who, as i've mentioned, has been acting as an absolute wondrous beta. We did this thing where we refused to talk about where we planned the chapter to head and then I wrote a line, she wrote a line, and so on. This event literally ended up being one of the most fun things I have ever done (and the same for her as well, as far as I know) and we're now working on another, significantly less serious piece. Actually, I'm pretty sure it's a full on crack fic at this point. Anywho, This was Interrupted!
We're also going to cowrite a second chapter for this for the Jerza Love Fest 2014 happening next week. The prompt for Wed, Nov. 5, 2014 is conveniently "Caught in the Act" so it fits rather nicely.
Anything I write for that festival will be uploaded the week after, so look forward to that! Have a nice day!
