A/N
Wow.. I am amazed by the amount of positive reactions I got on the first chapter!
To answer a question I got, I will definitely make Gale and Nalu chapters, don't worry! I already have those chapters planned and started writing them!
So, here we go! Second chapter!
A beam of sunshine travelled through the opened window, falling on the face of a certain blonde haired girl. She was sound asleep, her hair spread out over her pillow. She had pulled her blankets up to her nose, snuggling further into the warmth they provided. The sunlight tickled her tiny nose, and she giggled in response.
"No mommy, let me sleep for a bit longer," she mumbled while turning around, ingnoring the sunlight that was now travelling all over her face.
The sun seemed determined to wake the sleepy blonde girl up however, tickling her more and more until she threw off the blankets.
"Yes, yes, I'm up. Happy now?" She looked around in her room. Clothes were scattered all around, together with shoes and wrappers from chocolate candy with strawberries. Her favourite. Just like Levy and her lollypops, there was Lucy with her strawberries.
She groaned a little, before grabbing her phone and checking her Instagram feed. She needed to know if she had really met her soulmate yesterday evening. After he had introduced himself, things were blurry for the blonde.
"Come on, come on! Just load already! You have perfect WiFi, WHY WON'T YOU LOAD?" She felt like throwing her phone at the wall, maybe then her feed would load. At last, she could see new posts. Together with... 57 likes and comments? What kind of idiot would spam her like that?
Lucy really didn't look forward to this part, but decided to tap her activity log. She peeked through her blonde hair at the loading feed.
Then, she crashed her head against the floor as she fell out of bed. All of the likes and comments were from the same person. Called 'Dragonslayer'. Lucy wanted to curl up in a ball, lay down in her bed all day and watch some Netflix. She had recently discovered this new show called Grimm, and she loved it. Every part of it.
"What in the hell is all that noise? Is she always this loud in the morning?" A very masculine voice came from underneath a pile of blankets, that moved a little when she had hit the floor.
"I sure hope not, I hate being woken up like this..." the voice mumbled, before deciding to show his face.
It was a sleepy face, with messy pink locks all around.
"NATSU! KYAAAAAAAAAA! GET OUT OF MY ROOM!" Lucy yelled, while using her famous Lucy Kick to send him flying across her room. She quickly checkedher outfit, thank goodness she didn't fall asleep in her bra. Not that this was any better. She wore an old shirt from her dead, her dragon plushie clutched tightly to her chest.
"So.. noisy.." the boy grumbled, before rubbing the back of his head. "Not to mention that hurt like hell! She sure has one hell of a kick, holy shit." he muttered to himself, before standing up.
"Oh, it's just that weirdo from last night. Didn't she pass out when I showed her my tattoo?" His eyes started to glinster mischevious when he suddenly thought of a plan. Let's see how she would like a taste of her own medicine.
"Hey, you never told me your name, Celestial," he said, emphasizing her Instagram name. Not that he didn't know her name. Her sweet roommate, the genius girl, told him that the name of his soulmate was Lucy and that she was usually grumpy in the morning. Not to mention that she would never believe that she had met her soulmate. And that's why she had invited him over to their place.
He scratched his head absently. Didn't the blue-haired girl tell him something about definitely not sleeping in her room? Nah, probably not important. Besides, her carpet looked really comfortable, he just had to try. It wasn't like he was hurting her.
Natsu slowly made his way to Lucy, who muttered stuff like 'I can't believe him!' and 'The nerve of this guy!' under her breath. She decided to treat her self a little, and sat down on her bed again. Unfortunately, she failed to notice Natsu creeping up to her.
He crawled to the other side of the bed, then underneath it. And finally, he came out on the other side, where she was sitting.
Slowly, his face appeared and rose higher and higher, while wearing a huge grin on his face, imagining her reaction. His giggles gave him away. And that's when his eyes met Lucy's.
Later on, that morning would be remembered as "Never piss Lucy off" morning by Natsu.

The blonde had cooked her soulmate some breakfast. She decided to cook him some scrambled eggs, together with some bacon and a glass of super spicy tea. Seriously, who the hell drinks spicy tea, just for the taste of it? Tea was hot, so if you weren't careful, it would burn your tongue off. And if the tea didn't, then the spicy flavour would.
Now that she had calmed down, and he had explained his situation to her, she decided to at least cook him some brakfast as a thank you for bringing her home safe. She decided to take a good look at her soulmate. He didn't look bad. In fact, he actually was pretty hot. Aside from the pink hair, he had onyx eyes that seemed to be able to pierce down to someone's soul. He had some fine muscle, she'd be the first to admit that. And he was nicely tanned, not too much, but nice enough to look hella attractive. Dared she even say sexy.
Her chin rested in her hands and she observed the boy with a light smile. She could've gotten a soulmate that was a lot worse. According to the amount of texts she'd received from Levy, her soulmate was a weird guy. Not that she'd read them yet, but she would as soon as she managed to shove Natsu out of her house. She closed her eyes, a soft sigh escaping her lips.
"Luce?" The boy noticed a small change in her behavior. Judging from how well he'd known her(which was, let's be honest, not very well), she was always smiling and laughing. This didn't seem to fit with her very well.
"Hm? Oh, it's nothing Natsu, don't worry," she said while waving away the little sigh. Her eyes softened at remembering the conversation she had had with her parents a long time ago. Yet, she wouldn't tell him. Not now. This guy may be her soulmate, but she wanted to get to know him.
"But anyway, Natsu," she said while leaning in a bit closer, eyes filled with interest, "how did you know I am your soulmate?"
The poor boy's eyes nearly popped out of his head at hearing those words. His fork, filled with scrambled egg, dropped onto his plate. "Soulmate? Is that what those tattoos mean? Mira told me that they were tattoos to identify someone who could become a great friend and was meant to be in your life! But soulmate? I'm not ready to give up my life yet! I want to travel the world! I still wanna beat that Ice Bastard in an eating contest! I want to start the world's greatest fire! I don;t want to become a daddy!" He threw his hands up in the air in despair, while trailing off about a very long list with things that he still wanted to do.
Lucy couldn't help but giggle at his childlike behaviour. "Well of course they identify your soulmate, you dummy. Your soulmate is someone who you can laugh with, someone who will become a great friend and is indeed meant to be in your life. How on earth can you misinterpretend those words?" She slapped his head in a playful way.
"Idiot."
"Weirdo." He pouted at her.
"Moro- wait. Weirdo? What have I done to deserve that name?" she exclaimed, slamming her arm on the table and giving him a very scary look.
"A-aye! Because you were saying some weird things earlier about the.. Well.. Uuuh..." he trailed off, running his hands through his looks while looking for a way to talk himself out of this mess.
Lucy's eyes started to glinster a very dangerous shade, as she leaned in and grabbed his arm. "So basically, Mister Idiot, you called me a weirdo because you didn't have a better insult. Right?" A sadistic glinster lied in her eyes and a smile has creeped his way up to her lips. Now he was the one who did all the sweating and nearly screaming.
Then, his eyes fell on her wrist. He easily freed himself from her grip, and grabbed hold of her wrist instead, pulling her closer.
His eyes were studying her tattoo with an interest she never thought she'd see again in anyone's eyes.
"Hmmmm..." He scratched his chin a little, while still gazing at her wrist.
"W-what?" Lucy asked him. She couldn't help but feel like she was being assaulted in some sort of way, with the way he was gazing at her wrist. Not to mention she was still in her dad's oversized shirt.
"Yup! I knew it!" He exclaimed, sounding awfully happy.
Lucy was almost too scared to ask him about what, but she dared to anyway.
"You're a weirdo! It says so on your shirt!"
"KYAA!" she yelped, before looking down. Indeed, the shirt read 'Weird: a noun used to describe people like me'.
Without thinking, she did the first thing that came to mind. She slapped him across the face, and not very softly either while useing her other hand to cover herself up.
"IDIOT!"

Natsu was walking through town with a red hand-shape on his right cheek. That girl definitely knew how to deliver a blow. Maybe she had taken some secret lessons from Erza or something.. That would explain why she also had that kick of hers. His head still hurt from being kicked into a wall. Natsu always thought that only Erza was such a scary monster, but it turned out he was wrong. Lucy was just as scary, if not even scarier.
Maybe he shouldn't said his last remark, but it was too funny. At first, he truly was interested in her tattoo, but then he noticed the letters on her shirt. It was too perfect not to use, plus it would be a great recovery from his last slip up. Or so he thought.
Rubbing his cheek, he didn't pay any attention to his surroundings when he suddenly bumped in to a boy with raven black hair, and not a shirt anywhere near him.
"Ice brain!"
"Ash Flames!"
"FIGHT ME!" Natsu yelled out at the boy, getting ready for a good fight. It had been a while since he had fought a serious match and he could use the excercise.
"Nah, somebody else already beat you up before I could do so. Could you tell me who? I should send him a thank-you card for saving me trouble," the boy said with a slight smirk. His necklace was dancing up and down, the boy continuing his way like the encounter never happened.
"GRAY!" Natsu screamed, before running after him. "It wasn't a guy who slapped me! It was my.. My... well.. soulmate," he admitted sheepishly.
After hearing this, the boy named Gray erupted in laughter.
"You've got to be kidding me, right? The great and famous Natsu Dragneel, getting beaten up by a girl? Not to mention his soulmate? Oh boy, you must have screwed up big time if she really hit you this hard!"
At his words, Natsu started to blush. He hadn't really screwed up his chance with his soulmate, now had he? After all, they were soulmates. So they were meant to be. No way he could screw this up. Nope. No way to do that.
"Popsicle, you know that the whole deal of a soulmate means that you are meant to be, right? So there's no way I could have screwed up! It's all planned out!" She started laughing like a mad man, sounding like a dying hyena.
Well, that was what it sounded like in Gray's opinion.
"Listen up, Ash for Brains. If there is anyone who could screw up so badly that their soulmate wouldn't want anything to with them, it would be you. So I suggest you get your ass up from here, get back and apologize for whatever it is that you've done. Because only you could screw up that much."
Gray's eyes softened. No matter how much he and Natsu fighted, he still was a very precious friend of Gray, and he didn't want to see Natsu down. Especially after meeting his soulmate.
Gray himself had met his soulmate a while ago, a cute girl named Juvia. After she had met him, she kept calling him "Gray-sama" for some reason. Oh well, looking further than her little weirdness, she still was a very cute and sweet girl with a very kind heart. She was also good friends with two girls on campus, although she kept calling them "Love-Rival" because the girls hadn't met their soulmates yet.
According to Juvia, the girls were really pretty and well known around campus. One girl was super, super smart and the other girl was the girl who had thrown coffee over their professor. Although now she was also known because she was genuinely pretty.
Unfortunately, Gray himself never got to meet them. Natsu would always drag him off somewhere and he could barely say goodbye to Juvia before being taken away to the city. He would often find himself in some sort of weird shop that only sold the hottest tabasco sauce ever invented by humanity. Serious, what was wrong with that boy?
"Gray! Our fight has to wait! I have more important matters to take care of right now!" And just like that, Natsu ran away, back in the direction he came from. Gray smirked. That idiot would still listen to him, no matter how much he denied it.
Natsu stopped running after a while, remembering something.
"OOOOOOOI! ICE PRINCESS! WHERE THE HELL ARE YOUR CLOTHES?" Natsu yelled out, before continuing to run, giggling to himself.
"HEY, I AM WEARING CLOTHE- WHERE THE HELL DID MY PANTS GO?"
