Well Too Bad
Disclaimer: I do not own fairy tail
Chapter 1
lucy POV
I sat at her regular stool at the bar. Mirajane was chatting away and serving me drinks, Nab standing at the request board, Reedus painting, Juvia 'observing' Gray, Cana drinking, Macao and Wakaba laughing, Romeo training, Erza eating cake, Levy reading, Jet and Droy marveling levy, Gajeel sulking, Wendy smiling with Carla, everybody going about their usual buisness, just another day at fairy tail, but for me it was a special day.
Today was the day I said yes. I was nervous, excited, but mostly happy, so incredibly happy I could barely act normal and keep the grin off her face. It had been exactly a year since the first time Natsu had asked me that question. I remembered it like it was yesterday.
Flashback
I had just finished a rather difficult mission with Natsu, Gray, Happy, Erza and surprisingly the Sabertooth dragon slayers. It had ended up that both Fairy tail and Sabertooth had taken jobs very close to each other and they ended up being the same job. Things had happened, secrets were learned and they ended up working together to take down a fearsome enemy and his dark guild.
I smiled remembering back to how flirtatious a certain blond haired dragon slayer had become during their time together.
Anyway when I had returned home I was shocked to find that Natsu and Happy, who I had left at the train station not 5 minutes ago, had beat me home and were sprawled on my couch napping.
I didn't know why I was surprised. They always did this, so it shouldn't come as a shock. Regardless I let out a yell and 'a what the hell are you doing here', while the dragon slayer sat up and rubbed his eyes.
"Napping" he responded. 'Well duh' I thought. I huffed and told him to get out. "No wait! I have to ask you something." He had said.
"Aye sir" Happy added from beside Natsu.
Natsu looked up at me with the saddest puppy dog eyes. I sighed and sat down opposite him on her coffee table.
"Alright Natsu what do you want to ask?"
He looked a little confused and scratched his chin "weeelll...its two things actually"
"Alright" I prompted.
He looked at her for a full minute as if silently contemplating how to ask his question, I was a little surprised because anyone who knows Natsu, knows he never contemplates.
"Are you leaving Fairy tail?" He finally got out. To say I was shocked was an understatement.
"Of course not! What gives you that idea?" I said
"Well, Sting was flirting and you were laughing and I got worried that you would leave us to go be with him" he grumbled, looking red and annoyed, but still serious. I was stunned.
"WHAT, you think me and Sting! Sure he was being flirty but I do not like him like that and I would never leave Fairy tail! They are my family, I'm surprised you would even think that!" he still didn't look convinced, in fact he looked like he was going over a difficult calculation in his head.
"Whats wrong now Natsu?"
"Can you promise you will never leave Fairy tail cause I don't want you to leave!"
I was a little pink. Whenever he said these kind of things to me, I blushed. I couldn't help it! I had always had a small crush on the guy, but even at nineteen years old and after four years together the guy showed an incredible lack of interest in girls.
I answered "I'm not leaving Fairy tail Natsu." Even after that he still looked unsure.
"What will it take to convince you?" I said, as I gave him my most exasperated look.
At this he smiled. "Marry me! Then you have to stay with me" he gave me his lopsided grin.
"Aye sir, and Lucy will always be with us," Happy added pumping his fist into the air.
I froze. Did he...did...he...propose...marriage...NATSU?!
