This one has a little more lemon in it, so if you don't like lemon, don't read. Otherwise, enjoy.

"It was nice of them to let me stay, but getting their sake for them? I feel like a slave!" whined Lucy, as she carried bottles of sake back to the house coming home from the market.
"Well, you did sort of agree to do it," said Happy, who accompanied her and flew around her head.
"Even so," said Lucy.
Lucy opened the door to the cottage, where Natsu was playing with fire (literally) and Gray was cooling himself off (literally). Lucy slipped her shoes off at the front door, wiped her feet on the carpet (part of Gray's conditions for letting her stay), and put the bag down on the kitchen table.
"Drinks are here!" exclaimed Lucy.
"Oh boy!" cried Natsu.
"Not so fast," said Gray, blocking Natsu from rushing to the table, "It's too early in the morning, and we haven't even started our mission yet."
"Aw," moaned Happy and Natsu.
"Relax," replied Gray, "We can drink when we get back. Geez, you're both acting like cranky 6-year olds on a road trip."
"Should I go with you guys?" asked Lucy.
"Not on missions," replied Gray, "Just keep doing what you're doing."
"We'll see you later!" cried Natsu and Happy.
Natsu, Happy, and Gray left for their mission, once again leaving Lucy all alone in the cottage.
"I guess I can go try on some clothes or something," said Lucy.
She started to head towards the stairs until she heard moaning coming from behind her, "Drink me…"
Lucy turned around to see one of the bottles of sake with a big old grin on its face, as if it were a person.
"Drink me…" it hissed.
I want to, thought Lucy, but I think I should wait for the guys to come back.
"Drink me!" exclaimed the bottle.
"Maybe one sip won't hurt," said Lucy, taking the cap off the bottle. She took a small sip and put the bottle down, with a small drop of sake sliding down the bottle.
"Mmmm, that's good, drink more…" hissed the bottle.
Lucy took a smaller sip, and then a slightly bigger sip…until she found herself chugging the bottle down. She didn't know why she was doing it, she just felt good about it.
Next thing she knew, she was counting sheep while taking sips. She literally saw sheep bouncing around her, begging to be counted. She was on 42 before the next one became a dancing ukulele. "Dance with us, Lucy! Dance with us!" it exclaimed.
Soon enough, all the sheep became musical instruments dancing to each others music. Lucy finally got up and joined in.
"Hooray!" cried the violin, "Lucy has come to join us!"
The clarinet and flute took Lucy by both her hands and threw her in the middle of the circle on instruments dancing around her. Without realizing it, she found herself breaking into dance. She started with the electric slide, which appeased the instruments at first, until the clarinet got in and asked Lucy to dance.
"Care to dance with me?" asked the clarinet.
"I'll dance," replied the drunken Lucy, "But not with you."
"What do you mean?" asked the clarinet.
Now, being a fantasy influenced by drugs, the instruments were not of regular size. The clarinet was about four times its regular height…just perfect to use as a pole. Lucy wrapped her right leg around the clarinet, climbed up a little, and began to spin with her arm stretched out. All the clarinet felt was pure bliss.
"All night long…" said an overjoyed clarinet.
"My turn," said the saxophone, shoving the clarinet out of the way.
The clarinet went back in the circle dancing around Lucy and the saxophone. Before the sax knew it, Lucy was giving it a lap dance. Lucy enjoyed having something going up and down in between her butt cheeks, and the sax enjoyed it just as much.
Many hours later, Gray, Natsu, and Happy were on their way back from work, eagerly awaiting their drinks.
"I hope Lucy is back with our drinks!" exclaimed Happy.
"Don't get too crazy tonight, though," said Gray, "We have to be up early for tomorrow's mission. Don't forget that."
"Yeah, yeah, we'll be up," replied Natsu, "Don't be such a sourpuss!"
When the three entered the house, they saw that one of the bottles was missing from the bags Lucy had brought back earlier.
"Where is Lucy?" asked Happy.
"I have a feeling I know what happened," replied Gray.
Gray had been right, as usual. He led Happy and Natsu into the next room, where they found Lucy passed out on the floor. Not far from her was an empty bottle of sake.
"Isn't this exactly how we found her yesterday?" asked Gray.
Passed out, yes. Under the covers in nothing but her panties, not quite. No, she was still clothed. She was still wearing the white and blue tank top, still had the blue handkerchief around her neck, and still had the tight, black booty shorts on. What surprised Happy was that a girl as cute as Lucy could hold that much liquor. What surprised Natsu was that a girl as cute as Lucy could snore like a dog.
What angered Gray was that she was using one of his study books as a pillow.
"Gimme that," hissed Gray, pulling the book out from under Lucy's head.
"What was that for?" asked Natsu.
"She can't just make this her own personal playroom," said Gray, "She may be our guest, but she has to understand some ground rules."
"What are you doing?" asked Happy as Gray picked her up.
"I'm putting her to bed upstairs, where she belongs," replied Gray.
"Oh well," said Natsu, "I guess we'll see her tomorrow morning. Let's go get some drinks, Happy!"
"Oh boy!" exclaimed Happy.
Gray wasn't about to admit it to the other two, but he couldn't deny that Lucy was kind of cute when she was passed out. He wasn't quite sure why he enjoyed holding her in his arms, but it probably would pass when the alcohol wears out of Lucy's system. He suddenly froze in his steps when she heard him say something in her sleep.
"Natsu…"
