Hey guys! Since I got such an amazing response to this story I decided to continue on with the story! Yay! ^_^

So, I am using WordPad to write (type) this story since my laptop doesn't have the fancy nancy Microsofts thingsy. So there will probably be grammar errors and word miss spellings. I usually read chapters about 3 or 4 times to make sure I didn't type anything wrong but sometimes things will slip by so this is an apology in advance for anything wrong :)

So yeah. Enjoy!

Lucy's face was turning blue. She stared and stared and stared at the note that was now on her writing desk. Morning had come an hour before and Lucy was not looking forward to going to the guild. She had showered, dressed, and ate breakfast. Now she just stood in the middle of her room, looking straight at her desk.

Some part of her wanted to believe that she had just dreamed up an imaginary dragon and had made up the whole story of dragon mating. But the other, larger, part of her knew that she wasn't that smart to think up stages of mating and such. She sighed. Let's get it over with, she thought, shoving the note into the bottom drawer of her desk. She grabbed her whip and her keys before walking out the door.

Lucy took a deep breath and looked at the famous Fairy Tail's front door. This is it! Just push it open and hopefully no one will notice anything odd about my behavior, Lucy thought. She opened the door quietly, hoping no one noticed her slipping in.

Fairy Tail was as lively as ever. People were fighting and throwing chairs. Lucy sighed in relief when she saw that most of her guildmates where being themselves for once. But then she saw that the rest was (what looked like to her) fawning over Lisanna. Again.

Lucy looked around. She had thought of a plan to figure out who her apparent mate was. Obviously, her future mate was a Dragon Slayer since she's never really been in contact with a dragon in person before. Problem was she knew a handful of Dragon slayers so she'll have to watch closely whenever a Dragon Slayer was near her.

What was the signs again? She asked herself. Hmmm. Stages. Stage 1- Shows Dominance. Stage 2- Marking. Stage 3-Sex and then a surprise. Okay! I totally got this!

Lucy looks around again. Oh! I am totally crossing Gajeel off my list, she thought as she looked over to the corner where he was sitting at and saw him staring quite longingly at Levy. Then glaring at Jet whenever his arm accidently brushed against hers when he was reaching for his drink that Mira left for him.

Wendy is out for the running, also. I mean I just don't go that way and plus she is really young!

Hmmmm... Lucy continued to think on who was the possible candates. Mira set down Lucy's favorite drink from the guild, strawberry milkshake, in front of her. "Hey, Lucy! When did you get back?"

Lucy's somehwhat good mood dimmed down when she remembered the way her guildmates treated her yesterday. Lucy gave a weak smile. "Oh, uh. Very late last night. Around 12 or so." She lied.

"Oh? I thought you'd be here earlier than that." Mira said. Lucy simply nodded and said something about being solo made the mission a bit longer. Lies! All lies!

"LUCY! Where have you been?!" Lucy tensed a little when she heard that voice. She knew that voice anywhere. Natsu. She turned around in her seat.

Natsu was walking over to where Lucy was. Lisanna glanced at her and smiled sweetly in greeting. Lucy gave a small one in return. "Uh, I was on a mission."

Natsu flopped down beside her in a sloppy way. "How long were you gone? A week? I haven't seen you around."

Lucy gave him the 'are you kidding me?' face and rolled her eyes, "A day or 2."

"Really? I'm pretty sure I'm right." Natsu sat up and began to suck on my straw. For some odd reason, Lucy watched his lips suck on the straw and she shifted her body to find a more relaxed position. At least, that was her excuse.

Lucy just sighed. Suddenly, Lucy is being slammed into Natsu from the side. Lucy looks over at the criminal and finds Loke. What the hell? She hated it when he suddenly pops in like that. "Hello there, my dear Luce!" Loke beamed at her.

Lucy leaned away a bit but jumped back into place when Natsu suddenly growled. She looked at him and saw him bearing his teeth at Loke in a defensive matter. She gave him a questioning look before turning back to Loke. "What are doing here, Loke? And what did I say about you popping in like this?!" Lucy shouted at him, standing.

Loke just smiled slyly. "I only came to see if you would care for a picnic in the park for our dinner date." Lucy looked confused. When did she ever agree to go on a dinner date?

Natsu suddenly stood. "Hey! Luce! Watch me beat up Gray!" He yelled to her, while going to find Gray who looked like he was in the middle of feeling Juvia up. "GRAY! FIGHT ME!"

Gray lazyly looked up at him and only waved him away. Natsu glared at him so hard, Lucy was afraid Gray would burst into flames. "Loke. I am not having dinner with you." Lucy said as nicely as possible. Loke only shrugged before disappearing.

Natsu threw a punch at Gray that connected with his jaw. Gray flew back. Natsu looked back at Lucy to see that she was saying something to Loke and frowned. He'll have to make the punch more harder. He lit his hands on fire but got punched in the face instead.

Gray grinned at him, quite amused now. "That's all you got, flame for brains?" He taunted. "You hit like a grandma."

Natsu glared. Now. It was personal! No one insults his fighting skills in front of Lucy and gets away with it! He flew at Gray.

OMG! I just realized that in the first chapter (in the dream part) I switched from 3rd person to 1st person then back to 3rd person! I am so SORRY! I was planning on having the dream be in 1st person because its in Lucy's head (dream) when the whole thing was happening! I apologize!

Why did Natsu want to suddenly fight Gray when Loke showed up? Will Lucy know that answer?

Please review and tell me what you think.
