It was a beautiful morning. The suns warm light shone through as the soothing sounds of birds slowly woke her up and light breeze swopped through the open bedroom window.
"Wait… when did I open my window?"
She could feel something breathing and very warm beside her. Extremely warm. At that point she already knew who it was that had opened her window and was currently sleeping soundly right next to her. Her personal heater and best friend Natsu Dragneel.
She immediately tensed and tried to get away from him but his right arm pinned her down on to the bed again. She turned to face him.
His face was cuddled up against her pillow and some drool could be seen in the corner of his wide open mouth. She forgot their awkward position and gave out a short but loud laugh.
He started to stir at the sound and slowly opened his eyes. He blinked a few times to see clearer. When he saw Lucy's red face he smiled. A big heart warming, childish and extremely cute smile.
"Good morning Lucy!" He said as he finally released her to sit up and stretch. She sighed heavily at his behaviour. Some would think that boys would be embarrassed being caught by sleeping next to a girl they weren't dating. He was just… Him. She was actually quite disappointed in his uncaring reaction. She blushed at her own thoughts.
Suddenly she remembered that she was supposed to be angry with him.
"Natsuuu…. What are you doing here?" Her head was turned so that he couldn't see her but her menacing aura gave her away. Natsu gulped. He must be careful with what he says when she's like this. His life could depend on it!
"It's like this Lucy... I found a perfect mission request for the two of us and I went here to tell you… But it was pretty late so you were asleep, so I thought that I should wait until tomorrow instead of waking you up… and I didn't want to run all the way here again… so I decided to sleep here instead! Your bed is much more comfortable than my hammock anyway." Though that was only a bonus. Lucy was the real reason.
Lucy sighed. She was actually on a forgiving mood today. "Next time, please wake me up" She begged him. He laughed and nodded.
"By the way Natsu, you said just the two of us? What about Happy?" She asked.
"He said he was going to help Wendy prepare a surprise for Charle, it was getting boring without him around" He grinned at her. She smiled at the thought of whatever reaction Charle would have to Happy's and Wendy's 'surprise'.
"I hope they have fun then" She finally answered him.
She got up from bed, the bedsheets in a solid grip in her hand. She was only wearing a T-shirt and some panties. Natsu's comfortable heat was replaced by the cool morning air. She shivered as she moved towards her dresser.
"Natsu, could you go out while I dress?" He did as told, happy she wasn't mad at him.
Lucy dropped the sheets when he was out. She quickly changed into some decent clothes and tied up her hair in a ponytail. She checked herself in the mirror, and pleased with the results, she went out to Natsu facing him with a big smile.
"Now that request you were talking about?"
…
This was hell. The true meaning of evil. He couldn't for his life understand how anyone willingly would step on to one of these killer machines. Fucking trains. One day he would melt them all down to nothing. That metal bastard could eat them for all he…! His thoughts were interrupted by yet another urge to throw up. His stomach was currently in war with the rest of his body.
They were heading towards some mountain. Apparently it's too far and too cold to walk all the way so they had to use means of transportation.
"Come on Natsu! It can't be that bad…" He turned his gaze up from his knees to look at Lucy. She was sitting on her chair, opposite way to his, bending down toward him with a concerned look in her eyes.
"I think I'm gonna throw up" He reached his arm out to open the window next to him, but got interrupted when Lucy grabbed his hand half way. When he looked at her again she was smiling with a slight blush on her cheeks as she gently patted her knees, inviting him to lay his head on her lap. He nodded to her offer, too ill to risk speaking.
He tried to stand up and switch sides but as soon as he did, he felt a sharp pain in the pit of his stomach and doubled over in pain.
He suddenly felt a warm, soothing hand rubbing his back in a comforting manner. Another warm hand took his and led him to a chair and placed his head on Lucy's lap. It then started to gently stroke his hair, with small, soft movements.
The scent of cinnamon and vanilla filled his nose. Lucy's scent. He turned to his side and wrapped his arms around her, dragging her closer. He buried his nose against her stomach to pick up more of her wonderful scent. He still felt very sick but the gentle hand on his head combined with Lucy's sweet scent made him feel a lot better.
He turned his head up to look at her but her giant boobs blocked his view.
"Lucy…" He whispered. She bent over at the sound of his voice, and as a result, pressing her boobs against his face.
"So soft…." He thought. He could feel his cheeks heat up. When she noticed what she was doing, she instantly tilted back again.
"Sorry!" She said and covered her head with her hand to conceal her own blush. He grabbed her wrist and pulled it back to his hair, in a quiet order to keep up her magic.
"Does it feel better?" She asked when he smiled.
"Yeah… Thanks Luce, you really are the best" He said and closed his eyes.
…
He woke up to screams. People were running around, some seemed to be crying. It was then he noticed that he was perfectly fine. The train wasn't moving. And with that came the realization that Lucy wasn't here.
He shoot up immediately. Panic filled him and his heart was beating faster than ever. Where was Lucy? He stood up and ran out from their cabin. People were screaming around him, increasing his worries. What had happened?
Suddenly he saw it. The end of the train was gone. Giant rocks replaced what was supposed to be the driving area and a lot of room with it. He could hear sharp sounds of more coming down. He had to find Lucy now! But where was she? If she knew what was going on she would have woke him up. Was she hurt? Dead? NO!
"LUCYYY!" he screamed as he furiously searched around him for the blond celestial mage. He started to pant as he ran around inside the train searching for her.
She had to be somewhere in here! She was NOT under those rocks! She couldn't be! If she was it would be the end for him. His light would be gone and he would be forever trapped in darkness. But it's okay right? Right? She won't leave! She would never leave her friends behind! Never leave him behind!
He continued his frantic search. He could no longer hear the sounds of the people surrounding him. The only thing he could hear was his own heavy breathing and pounding heart. Hope started to leave him for every passing second. He had ran two laps around the train, avoiding falling rocks on the way. He was at the beginning again. The driver's area.
He searched for her scent but the smell of blood and all the panicked people around him made it difficult.
He was just about to run back to check again when he finally caught her sweet scent that he loved so much. It was extremely faint, but it was still there. He went closer to the rocks. The scent came from behind them. He carefully moved the huge rock. The rock's falling on top of another had created an air went with just enough space so that a human could fit.
And in the hole laid his Lucy.
…
Well this was fun! I am a really lazy person, but I hope I will update this more frequently than I think I will. Have hope Kiddies! Well this was something random I came up with when I was eating toast and listening to "Happy" which has nothing to do with the story. But that is how it works. When I listen to sad song I write happy things and when I listen to happy songs I write sad things. And there's something about toast that makes me evil.
Please guys… feedback! My English isn't perfect! My grammar may be bad… I'm not from the US or the UK so… yeah…
