Hello everyone, this is the first FanFiction I have written in (I think) over a year, I had serious writer's block, I still do. Yet I forced myself to write this and I actually found it easier as I went along. It's not as good as my previous 'Heart no Kuni no Alice' ones, but I think it's gone well so far. Also I am really lazy so don't expect an update every day. Or week for that matter.
By the way, I am British so "Mom" is "Mum" in this and things like "Color" or "Favorite" become "Colour" and "Favourite".
PLEASE REVIEW! I beg of you! (Oops I rhymed) I need constructive criticism, or if you prefer just tell me if it's any good. Arigato!
Also I used "NANI?" here because I think it means "WHAT?" as in an exclamation rather than an actual question. If this is wrong please tell me, thank you. And finally, I will try use honorifics. Try.
Disclaimer: I am only doing this once for the entire story okay? I do not own Fairy Tail, nor do I want to. I would rather be IN it.

Chapter One: The Bed Invader
Ribbons of the morning sun drifted through the parted floor length turquoise curtains, which hung in a certain apartment on Strawberry Street. The window was slightly ajar allowing the warm summer breeze to blow gently into the room, making the curtains flutter.
Lucy Heartfilia slowly opened her heavy eyelids, only to have the sunlight glare into her half closed eyes. She quickly shut them again whilst making a small moan of detest and brought the duvet up to her face. Once the initial shock of nature's rude awakening was over the young mage began to slowly peel the cover away from her face, but was still too groggy to fully awake and get up from her cosy, if slightly warmer than usual, double bed. So she simply lay there on her side and stared at the gently swaying curtains and subsequently the patterns of light they made resembling a monotone aurora in the sky that was, in actuality, a cream coloured carpet on the floor of this spacious yet modest bedroom. Oh, that's a good one. Thought she, I'll have to use that in my novel. A monotone aurora.She lay there for another minute or two before realizing that her pillow was ever so slightly moving rhythmically. It was pleasant. Very calming.
Wait… The celestial mage opened her eyes wide, her drowsy state leaving quickly. Pillows don't move. And what am I lying on?
Lucy rolled over only to come face to face with one of her closest friends, and possibly the most annoying person she had ever –scratch that, there is always Ichiya –possibly one of the most annoying people she had ever met, ad he was so close that their lips almost brushed against each other. She stared at him for a moment, as if he were a foreign object.
"KYAAAA!" She leapt out of bed and screamed, overreacting again.
He opened one eye to look at her before sitting up, "Ohayo Lucy, could you please not be so loud so early?" The dragon slayer asked casually.
"Could I not be so loud? Natsu what would you do if you woke up with me uninvited in your bed?" She suddenly blushed realizing the implications of she had asked him, but Natsu didn't seem to notice. He just shrugged and replied "Why would I be in my bed when this one is so comfy?"
NANI? HE DOESN'T EXPECT TO SLEEP HERE DOES HE? Lucy questioned inwardly.
He stretched his arms out whilst opening his mouth in a great yawn, reminding her of a lion.
One of her celestial keys began to glow and unexpectedly Loke appeared next to her, poised for battle, his Regulus ring at the ready. Speaking of lions…
"Lucy what's happened? You were screaming." He questioned her immediately.
"Nothing! Really it's nothing!" His master insisted!
"But then why –Oh. I see. The screaming wasn't… um… pain…" Loke awkwardly relaxed his arms from his fighting stance, looking towards Natsu in Lucy's bed, obviously having just woken up, Topless; Lucy herself in underwear as she usually slept in.
It dawned on her what he must have been thinking. "No! No! Loke, it's not like you thi–" She tried to explain.
"It's absolutely fine I completely understand, you are both at that age when things inside you are changing, your hormone levels rocket and you have needs," said the spirit "and anyway I thought something like this would happen sooner or later." He ended on a slightly hurt note.
"Huh?" Natsu asked, rather baffled.
"Honestly Loke we aren't –we're not –" Lucy tried to protest before being cut off again by Loke.
"You don't need to explain yourself to me Princess; I guess I never really had that great a chance to begin with." He smiled sadly at her. "Oh well, while I'm here I might go get a drink or something, see some old friends. By the way Natsu, congrats. Treat her well." He sent a courteous nod in the younger mage's direction and then turned for the door and exiting swiftly, leaving Lucy dying of mortification and Natsu really confused.
The pink haired boy turned to his friend. "Care to explain–"
"No." She deadpanned. "Just throw your top on and I'll make us some breakfast."

Natsu was now seated at the mid-sized table in the kitchen-dinner, next to him sat Happy, the lovable blue Exceed, more commonly known as a magic cat. Happy had apparently been curled up last night on the clothes she had set out for the day and had fallen asleep for the night. Now here favourite outfit was covered I blue cat hair.
Both were now fully energized and waiting for Lucy to serve them breakfast, banging their cutlery on the table, chanting "Food! Food! Food! Food! Food!", whilst grinning childishly.
Lucy served up the Bacon and eggs and toast. "Hurry up guys! We are two hours late and they are going to be wondering where we are!"
Both Happy and Natsu yelled "Itadakimasu" and shovelled the food into their mouths the moment it was set in front of them, the plates were truly emptied in a minute flat.
"Ok Lucy! Let's go!" exclaimed Natsu, idiotic grin plastered to his face.
"Aye!" Happy concurred.
Together the three ran to the Guild, knowing that if they didn't show up soon Titania would come looking for them, and it was too early in the morning to face Erza's wrath.

Wow, that was really short, in fact that was more like a prologue than anything, I promise it will get more interesting. But yeah, my writing was a bit bland here because I am SO TIRED.
Ok I will be including some romantic pairings in this, but I need you (YES YOU!) to help me choose the final pairings. I will only pair Erza with Jellal. The poll will be on my profile.
Also I may change the point of view and rating as we progress, and most likely the title.
Yes, the dividers are stupid, but it's only because mine aren't working on here for some reason.
