The Tale of the Princess and the Dragon. Takes place after the time skip. Contains NaLu and some Lolu I do not own FT.


Once upon a time in the land of Fiore, there was a lost tale, the Tale of the Princess and the Dragon. Only this was a tale unlike the rest...


Sometime in the morning...

"NATSU! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!"

"Hey Luce! " Said dragon slayer munched on whatever he could find in his team mates fridge. "I was starving so I figured you wouldn't have minded."

"Aye!" Happy chirped in agreement. Both f them missing the murderous aura emitting from their celestial spirit mage. Lucy didn't have enough energy to fight the idiot duo this morning.

"I'll meet you in the guild soon. Just let me get dressed, you can go without me." She turned around only to get 3 steps before she was pulled back and twisted to face the dragon slayer. He did not look pleased, but worried.

Her face began to heat up, it probably bet Natsu's hair at the colour.

'Was it always this hot around Natsu or...NO! It can't be.' She panicked for a way out, only to hear laughter. "You're such a weirdo, Luce! I guess I'll see ya there!" He gave her his trademark smile and left through the window, followed by his blue companion.

"Bye weirdo Lucy!"

There was a few moments of silence until Lucy caught up with reality.

"What the hell just happened? Oh well, time to get ready!" She bounded toward her bedroom, not wanting to keep her team waiting.


"That was weird, even for Lucy and she's always weird." Happy still munched on the fish Lucy had in her apartment. "That's why she's a weirdo!"

"That didn't make sense Natsu." Happy deadpanned. "Oh well, she probably just got up on the wrong side of the pillow-"

"Bed Natsu. The wrong side of the bed." Happy corrected him, again. "What's wrong Natsu? You usually don't make 2 mistakes within 5 minutes."

Now that he thought about it, Lucy's tired and worn out face kept clouding his mind. He didn't like it. What if something happened to her that she didn't tell him about? What if she wants to leave again?

Natsu let out a deep throaty growl. He wasn't liking where his thoughts were going.

"Natsu! We're at the guild! You can stop walking now!" Happy tugged along his partner. He obviously didn't hear the growl. This was defiantly not like Natsu.

"Hey everybody!"

"Yo Natsu! Happy!"

"Hey guys!"

Everyone greeted the duo. Then going back to whatever the hell they were going before. "Natsu! Where's Lu-chan?" Little Levy bounded over. Concern glowing in her olive eyes. Natsu was about to answer then the doors burst open.

"Right here~!" The ever happy blonde bounced happily through the door. Once again, everybody greeted her. Levy tackled her into a hug.

"Did you bring it! Did you bring it! Did ya? Did ya?" Lucy laughed at the blunettes childish behaviour. She reached into her bag and pulled out a bunch of papers stuck together. "Here you go, Levy! Tell em how it is, and be honest!"

Levy couldn't hear her, she was already seated on the floor flicking through the book with utter awe. Lucy was about to suggest to her blue haired friend to go sit at a table but was pulled away by Natsu.

He placed her in front of the request board, which was practically exploding with requests after Fairy Tail had won the GMT.

"You pick the job today Luce!" Natsu jumped behind her, already looking for jobs himself. "Ooo~ look Luce! Here's one!"

"I thought you wanted me to pick the request..." She sweat dropped. "Ha! Flame brain can't even remember what he said 5 seconds ago. Such an idiot." She spun around and was about to say hello to the ice-mage but squealed when he had no clothes on, except his boxers. "Gray...your clothes."

"SHIT! How'd that happen!"

"Stupid Ice stripper! You can't even keep your clothes on!" Natsu laughed, just dodging Gray's ice magic. .

"Pinky!"

"Exhibitionist!"

"Flame Idiot!"

"Ice coward." This went on till they knocked Erza's strawberry cheesecake onto the floor. Even the people who were on the other side of the guild left before Erza had a chance to get them too.

"MY CAKE! I'LL KILL YOU!"


In The Evening. Yup, Erza was that angry she took the whole day to make sure her cake was avenged.

Lucy wiped at the cuts and gashes on Natsu as he sat on her bed. Complaining about the alcohol wipe. "But it huuuurrrrttsssss!"

"I'm trying to make this as painless as I can. I doubt you want to have your cuts infected."

"I could live with it." He stated proudly then she harshly smushed the wipe down on his stomach wound. He backed up onto her bed, his back hitting the headboard. Hissing at her.

"Why the hell did you do that for?"

"Because if your wounds get infected you may get blood poisoning and die! I am not going to let-" She stopped mid sentence, stopping herself from saying the rest.

She turned her face away trying to calm her blush. 'I do sort of maybe kinda like him...a lot.' She fell off the bed at her last thought, ignoring the dragon slayers questions and shouts. She admitted it to herself! She actually did!

'Well, of course you would like him. He's shirtless right now, and you've sucked in a lot of medical fumes. You're delusional, Lucy! Delusional!'

She began laughing to herself. She was going mad. Wonderful! *Sarcasm shall be noted*

"Luce! You alright?" Natsu pulled her back onto the bed, his wounds reopening, he didn't take notice. He just needed to know what was wrong with his best friend.

Lucy'e eyes widened at the wounds. "Damnit Natsu! Your wounds. Hold on, I'll get more medicine. She ran off, face ablaze.

She came back in quicker than she hoped and started for his wounds. He glared at the evil medical supplies within her perfect hand-

'What the hell did I just think? P-perfect h-hand?' He fell backwards onto the bed, not bothering to cover his blushing face.

"Natsu, are you ok? Are you burning up?" Her face came into his view, concern creasing in her forehead. She was about to place her hand on his forehead, but he caught her wrist.

"I'm fine Luce! But, can you please help with my cuts?" He was seriously a weird guy. She pulled from his grasp and was about to apply the wipe but he cut in. "Please don't make it hurt..." It was just a whisper, but she heard it, she had to admit it made her laugh.


It took 3 hours to clean all of his wounds, due to Natsu's stubbornness against medical supplies. He even tried to burn his wounds closed because he said it would be less painful. Lucy didn't see how painless it could be.

Lucy cleaned everything up, she even put happy on the bottom of her bed as he slept. Before she moved to the couch for a moderately good nights sleep, she sat at the edge of her bed. Watching the stars outside her window.

About to get up from her spot. She was grounded to the bed by an arm encircling her waist. Blushing like mad, she turned to see a content Natsu, nuzzling his head into her lower back.

Stroking his hair a few times she decided to get up. Natsu's other arm shot up and pulled her onto the bed. She was about to scream, but it was clogged in her throat.

Natsu had spun her around so she was on the other side of the bed and he had his face cosily snuggled in her neck. His arms draped around her protectively.

"Natsu, you awake?" She nudged him slightly. His grip tightened and he mumbled something about Igneel and pain. Her heart sank. You had to feel for the guy, he really did miss his father. She started stroking his hair again whispering softly: "It's ok. It's ok, Natsu."

He pulled her in tighter. He moved his head slightly and his lips scraped up her neck until they came nose to nose with each other.

Lucy was so close to having heart failure. Her mind was completely blank. It was so...so...so...damn! She couldn't think!

He gave her a quick Eskimo kiss and pulled her down so she was resting in his neck. That did it. She had no idea what to do and why it was going on.

"Luce..." He muttered pulling her in so tight she almost couldn't breath.

She had to get out, now. A gold light flooded her room.

She didn't know weather his arrival was a good thing or a bad thing. Loke stood gaping in horror at the scene on the bed. "Help...me." She struggled against Natsu's hold. But he tightened it.

Loke reacted quicker than Lucy thought. He ripped them apart and pulled her to her feet, not letting her go. Natsu was still sleeping peacefully.

He pulled her into the lounge so they could talk without waking the sleeping dragon.


"What the hell was going on in there?" Loke glared at the door, but the pain showed through in his voice.

"He just...pulled me down."

"Why didn't you call me earlier then?"

"Well-"

"Why is he in your bed?" He carried on. "Loke-"

"Why was he even in your room?" She was barely able to open her mouth to reply. "Why the hell is he here at 2 in mor-?"

"Loke shut the hell up!" So the lion did. "He and Gray pissed off Erza and she took all day to make sure they suffered. He came here so I could clean his wounds then he was being a big baby so it took longer than expected. Once I was done he fell asleep on my bed. I was going to sleep on the couch but he pulled me down and-"

"Did he do anything before I came. Anything that you didn't want to do?" Loke's eyes surged with anger. She was his princess. But then he calmed down and almost laughed at himself. He only had a small chance with her if any.

"No. He did nothing but put the death grip on me. To be fair he was having a nightmare." (That rhymed! Ha! I could rap!)

"Nightmare or not you two shouldn't be cuddling!"

"Since when do you make the rules?" She hissed at her spirit. Instantly feeling guilty. His eyes darkened.

"Since the day I fell for you..." Then Loke left in a puff of smoke. Lucy began to worry, but convinced her self he was being a playboy as usual. But that only convinced her slightly.

She collapsed on the couch, lying there without going to sleep. Too much was on her mind.


The Tale of the Princess and Dragon needs a little of Princely action.


Haha, sorry if it's short for your taste but I reckon it's a good size. I also apologize if it's a little confusing and doesn't make sense. I have to work on that...

Leave only positive reviews please, I'm not a fan of haters, although I do appreciate the feedback of some.
