~At the guild Lucy's POV~
I have had a horrible week. After going on a mission with Natsu, Gray, Erza and Happy to have over half the reward money taken away because Natsu just had to go on a rampage and destroy five buildings in the city. Now my rent will be late and I barely have enough money for food, let alone the cute new outfit I saw in the store that I wanted so badly. I am currently sitting at the bar with Mira serving all the members present and Levy sitting next to me reading a rather large text book. Natsu suddenly comes into the guild and sits down next to me. He looks upset about something.
Natsu-Mira fire whiskey please
Lucy-What Natsu you don't drink
Mira-Yea Natsu when did you start drinking
Natsu-Since now, just give me the damn drink
Mira-O-oh okay Natsu one second
Lucy-Hey Natsu are you okay?
Natsu-Just fine
Lucy-Are you sure? You know you can talk to me whenever you need to I'm here for you. Since you are my best friend.
Natsu-I said I am fine now just leave me the hell alone!
Lucy-Fine but I was only trying to help you
I storm out of the guild and decided to go back to my apartment. What has gotten into him? Drinking and having such a bad attitude? This is not like him. My chest starts to hurt just thinking about it. I plopped down on my bed shoving my face into my pillow and crying my eyes out. It feels like I am losing my best friend
~Back at the guily Natsu's POV~
Mira-Natsu don't you think that was a little harsh she was only worried about you
Natsu-I know but its something I have to do
Mira-Why is that?
Natsu-I can't talk about it Mira
Mira-Okay well if you need me you know where to find me
Natsu-Thanks
I downed my fourth shot of fire whiskey, who knew that it would be that good. I keep trying to figure out what is wrong with me, why I have this strong yearning feeling in me? It feels dangerous so I need to distance myself from Lucy. I don't want her to get hurt. I did not want to hurt her by what I said but its hurting me to. I walk out of the guild and got lost in my own thoughts till I found myself outside her apartment. I was about to turn around a go home when her scent hit me like a ton of bricks. Suddenly I am no longer in control of myself and my instincts kick in.
~Lucy's POV~
I just got out of the bath and wrap myself in a towel. I went into my bedroom and started to pull out my clothes when I hear my window pried open. I spun around to see Natsu standing in front of it. But its not the Natsu I know. There is a look in his eyes thats almost animalistic.
Lucy-Natsu, what are you doing?
Now normally I would be yelling and beating him for intruding into my apartment but something about that look he is giving me tell me to stay away. I know Natsu would never hurt me but it does not change the fact that I am still scared.
Lucy-Natsu please answer me, what are you doing?
Natsu-Tsk tsk sweet Lucy, no need for questions. Just sit back and enjoy the ride
Lucy-What are you talking about Natsu?
He then starts walking towards me, closing the distance between us. He pins me against the wall and reaches for my face. He pulls me closer to him and starts to lean his face in. I know he is about to kiss me and I have dreamed of this moment for some time now but I never imagined it to happen like this. When Natsu does not even realize what he is doing. I turn my face from him tears streak down my face as he forces me to face him. His face is inches from mine. No not like this, I wanted my first kiss to be romantic, and loving not like this!
Lucy-NATSU, PLEASE STOP! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME?!
The look in Natsu's eyes finally turn to normal. He looks at me confused and pulls away
Natsu-Lucy what happened?
Lucy-I don't really know, all I know is you came into my room not acting like yourself and tried to kiss me. Natsu whats going on?
Natsu-I don't know Luce
He starts to back up with a look of fear in his eyes. He turns around and starts to climb out the window when I reached for his hand and he whipped around so fast that I tripped and braced myself for the impact of the hard floor but instead I fell against something warm. I look down to see myself laying on top of Natsu. Once again he has a weird gleam in his eyes but this time it is different from earlier when he scared the crap out of me. My face burns crimson from gazing into his eyes when Natsu broke the silence.
Natsu-Um Lucy where is your towel?
I look down to see that my towel had fallen off and laid on the floor next to me with me laying completely naked on top of him. My face turns even more red if that's possible and I yell
Lucy-AH! Natsu don't look! Close your eyes!
He did as he was told and I got up and grabbed my towel and wrapped it around myself. I told him that he could open his eyes now as I held my hand out to help him up.
Natsu-thanks I'll just be going now
Lucy-Um okay
I say completely forgetting the reason I was stopping him from leaving in the first place. He jumps out the window and is gone from sight soon after. Of course I get all flustered because of the position I was in with him but he just acts like nothing happened. I guess to him I really am nothing but his friend. My feelings are totally one sided and I got dressed and decided that I should go back to the guild since I could not be left alone with my own thoughts right now.
~At the guild Lucy's POV~
Mira-Hey Lucy
Lucy-Hey
Mira-What happened you look really upset
Lucy-To be honest Mira, I am not even sure myself
Mira-Well just tell me what happened
I start to explain to her what happened but I did not realize a certain iron dragon slayer was listening in. After explaining everything that happened Mira gives her infamous fangirl scream with the stars in her eyes
Mira-That's it! He likes you!
Lucy-How did you come to that conclusion?
Mira-Well maybe it was the fact that he tried to kiss you or the way he said for you to sit back and enjoy the ride
Lucy-Yea but what is that supposed to mean?
Mira-Really Lucy sometimes you can be just a dense as Natsu. Obviously that is sexual innuendo. Maybe Natsu is finally has a normal teenage boy's hormones
Lucy- What no way Mira! There is no way that dense Natsu could mean it like that!
Mira-Oh I can not wait to see where this is going
