On a hot summers day, there was a beautiful girl walking through the forest.

She had just run away from home and was determined not to go back.

She sighed. She'd been walking around for a half a day now and she was pretty sure she was lost.

Kicking a nearby rock she hmped.

"Stupid father...and stupid arranged marriage...and stupid...stupid everything!" She yelled kicking a tree in frustration.

She hissed in pain and hoped on one foot realising how stupid that was just now.

Damn Chuck Norris..

Heck, she doesn't even know why she's involving him in this anyway.

She heard someone chuckle nearby and looked around.

A man...no a boy who looked about her age was sitting on a tree branch and grinning down at her.

"...H..hi. "She said warily as she looked up at him.

His grin disappeared as he realised the girl was watching him.

"Back off. "

"Wh-what?"

"Back off." He repeated.

"I was just saying hi." Lucy mumbled.

The boy scoffed. "You should be afraid. Dont you know who I am.

Lucy shook her head. What the heck is this fool talking about!?

"I'm a Dragneel. And your in my territory by the way."

"Dragneel? Is that name special or something?" She asked.

The boy looked shocked. "Yeah it means uh...well first of all who are you? "

"Who are you?" She asked him.

"I ask the questions." He said.

"I'm the one who has to answer and I can choose not too." She smirked.

He raised an eyebrow at the blonde as she sighed and gave in to his request.

"I'm Lucy Heartf-...Lucy Heart."

"Nice to meet you Lucy." He grinned. "I'm Natsu. "

Natsu held out his hands as Lucy looked suspiciously at them.

Wasn't this guy just telling her to back off a few moments ago?

She relunctantly shook his hand.

"So Lucy. Where are you from?"

She gulped. What should she tell him? That she's a princess who ran away from the castle because of an arranged marriage...

No! No..she couldn't just blow away her cover like that now could she.

"Um, uh. Fiorrrra, Magn-.,ola..n..."

"Fiorra Magnolan? I dont think I ever heard of that place Lucy."

"Its uh, quite the place. Really fun." She lied.

The boy eyed her suspiciously and grinned once he was content with her answer.

"Whatever you say Lucy."

They stayed silent for a moment until Lucy said.

"Hey Natsu. Do you know where Celestial Tower is?"

"Why?"

"I heard of it and i'd like to see it. This is the first time I've been to this town." She said timidly.

Well, it wasn't really a lie. She's been in the castle all her life, so she never actually got to visit the country she rules over. It's pathetic actually. She doesn't even know the name of the main street..

"Alright then. I'll take you there. But firrrst.."

"Fiiirst?"

Natsu turned to her.

" lucy come with me." He said holding out his hand.

She looked warily at his hand.

"Um exactly where are we going?" She said reaching for his hand and holding it.

He squeezed her hand. "Dont worry about it. We'll be fine."

Lucy furrowed her eyebrows in worry as they walked through the forest.

They walked for a few minutes until Lucy started to hear chattering.

She started to see a path up ahead and gasped in amazement as they stopped.

"Welcome to the town of Fairy Tail!" Natsu said as Lucy looked at the big place.

"It's amazing. So many shops..and food stands..and..and everything!" She said as they started to walk around.

"And this is the Fairy Tail Flee Market. I spend just about all of my time here. You can meet everyone later though."

"Nn." Lucy nodded in awe at the friendly people who greeted each other so casually.

"Hey yo Natsu!" A fruit vendor called.

"Yo!" Natsu greeted back.

"What's up brat!" An elderly man grinned.

"Nothin new gramps."

"Natsu!"

"HEEEY!"

"Natsu how you doin!"

"Awesome."

"Yo!"

"Sup."

Lucy turned to him as they walked.

She smiled. "You sure do know alot of people."

Natsu grinned. "Of course. Everyone knows me! Which is weird since you didn't know who I was."

"I must've forgotten your name..." Lucy lied.

Natsu smirked. "You little liar you."

Lucy looked shocked. "What me? I never lie..."

Natsu laughed and ruffled her hair. "Whatever you say weirdo."

"So now I'm a liar and a weirdo?" She said amused.

"Yup." He smiled.

"Natsu you are surely mistaken-" Lucy stopped Natsu from walking as her eyes widened at what was in front of her.

"Lucy?" He asked.

Lucy recognised that banner..and that mark from anywhere. But why were they here already! Are they looking for her!

"Oh shit it's the guards..." Lucy muttered under her breathe.

Natsu looked towards where Lucy stared.

He looked back at the girl and raised and eyebrow. "Are you in trouble with the law or something?"

She laughed nervously. "I guess you could say it's something like that then.

Natsu tsked. This girl was getting weirder by the moment.

But he kinda liked it.

Lucy pulled on his scarf.

"Natsu don't look now but theyre coming this way!" She said hiding behind him.

Natsu looked at the guards.

"I said don't look!"

"Well fine uh, what do you want to do!"

"I..I don't know."

The guards started to come closer. "It's her!" "It's Lucy!"

"We gotta run!" Natsu said pulling the blonde with him.

"Kya!"

They ran through the market, dodging people and trying not to tip over fruitcarts and empty boxes.

They ducked through corners as Lucy sighed, feeling a little tired from all that running.

Natsu stopped suddenly as Lucy bumped into him with a thud.

"Oof."

Natsu shushed her as they went through an alleyway and hid behind a few boxes.

"N-natsu!"

He shushed her again and kept his fingers on her lips.

"Sowwy."She whispered.

Silence...

They heard footsteps run by.

Lucy peeped over the boxes.

"Is it safe?..."

Natsu also peeked over.

"Yeah."

They stood up and stretched.

"Hey Lucy?"

"Mm?"

"You're a princess aren't you?"

"W-What? Me! Psssssh. No way." She laughed nervously.

Natsu gave her a stern look.

"Okay...I am..but don't tell!"

"I won't." He smiled as they exited the alleyway.

"Hey Lucy?"

"What?"

"You said you wanted to see the Celestial Tower right?" He grinned holding his hand out towards the girl for atleast the third time that day.

Lucy's eyes widened as she smiled. "Yes!"

"Then I promise we'll go there together." He smiled softly at her.

She hugged him and he blushed and looked at her.

"Hey! Get off me!"

Lucy laughed and refused as Natsu continued to blush profusely.

Nashi gasped. "Then what happened to you and mommy!"

Natsu blushed. "I never said it was your mom and me."

"But you said Lucy. Mommys real name is Lucy. And real name is Natsu, ne?"

Natsu sighed. Kids these days are scary...

"You got me kid. The story is about us. The day I first brought your mom to Fairy Tail. Well I changed it up a bit. No...a lot. " Natsu said in defeat.

Nashi gasped. "Coooooooooool!"

"You're starting to sound like Jason the reporter.."

Nashi laughed.

She pinched her dad's cheek. "Now continje the bedtime story!"

"Why you little.."

Nashi laughed and jumped around on the bed.

Natsu sighed.

"Fine. And then.."

A/N:- So.. Should I continue this story too? :3
