Please, please review for the story and tell me your favorite parts or what made you laugh.

Fairy Tail Hotel

Dragneel Brothers

Natsu scratches at his chin over and over again. His brother turns his attention away from the window to look at him and raises a single eyebrow.

"You okay there Natsu?"

"Huh? Oh yeah, I'm fine." Natsu mumbles to himself.

"Alright then," Zeref says looking back out of the window.

He observes all the buildings passing them by before he starts to hear that irritating itch again. Natsu begins to scratch at his chin once more, paying no mind to the annoying noise he's making.

"You aren't nervous, are you?"

Natsu stops scratching and scoffs at his brother, "me? Nervous? Why would I be? I was the one who proposed to her. I mean if I was nervous I would have never asked her to marry me. I never understood that about people. I mean, why do husbands and wives run off during weddings? They've been planning it for so long, you would think they would know if they wanted to marry the person or not. They do have the choice of yes or no when first asked, so why do they say yes and just run-"

"Natsu!"

"I know, I'm talking to much, I'll shut up now."

"No Natsu, you only ramble on about useless thoughts when you're nervous about something, or if something is on your mind. Is there anything on your mind you want to tell me about? Like something bad you did that could potentially make my job harder as you leave me to clean it up while you go on your honeymoon?"

"What?!" Natsu starts laughing nervously, "no way! You're not serious, are you Zeref? Ha! What a laugh! You're funny!" He tries to play it cool, but secretly hopes that the one client he called a complete imbecile will call to complain about it once he's officially out of contact with his brother.

Zeref stares at him, not really convinced, but relaxes a bit as he looks back outside of the window. "You know it's perfectly normal to be nervous for your wedding. You've only known this girl-"

"My whole life."

"Exactly, your whole life, and if you're having doubts even after knowing her your whole life that simply means you don't want to be with her."

"That isn't it Zeref, not at all."

"Then be happy brother, you're getting married in two weeks."

Natsu smiles, but Zeref doesn't see it because he's too busy looking at the sights. The rest of the limo ride is silent until the two get to the hotel. Their driver pulls up in front of the entrance and exits to open the door for the famous Dragneel brothers, but Natsu is more than capable of opening his own door and is too impatient to wait.

As he takes that first step outside and breathes in the fresh air, his happiness only lasts a quick minute before he freezes.

"Welcome to Fairy Tail Hotel Mr. Dragneel," a soft, light, beautiful voice tells him.

And to match that voice, a beautiful woman smiles kindly as she bows to him. Her buttons are all the way up, so this time around Natsu doesn't catch a sight of her cleavage, and she leans back up, her blonde hair falling out of place in front of her face. He wants to reach out and brush it gently behind her ear, but stops himself.

"No need to show this idiot any respect Lucy," Zeref interrupts his train of thought.

Lucy giggles behind her hand and fixes her glasses back into place, "that may be so, but I should still be kind. After all, Natsu is the funny one out of you two Mr. Dragneel."

"Ha! You hear that Zeref?! She likes me the best!" Natsu cheers wrapping his arm around Lucy's shoulder.

She smells like sugar cookies. Why? Why does she smell like his favorite cookies?

"If she really does like you better then why is she my secretary?" Zeref asks, raising an eyebrow.

Lucy ends up giggling again and quickly intervenes between them before it can escalate any further. After years of working with the Dragneel brothers she knows when and how to stop a fight between them.

"Now now boys, play nice. You two are the first to arrive here, after the wonderful me of course," Lucy teases shaking her hair around. Natsu chuckles and Zeref just smiles lightly. "Ms. Strauss hasn't arrived yet, but she did send me a text saying she'll be here within the hour. Her sister is in a meeting right now, she'll probably be ready to see you guys when Ms. Strauss arrives. I have your room keys with me right here, today is just a formal event to make sure everything is in order for your wedding in two weeks. I've left Invel in charge of things back at the office Mr. Dragneel and told him to send me hourly reports so we know nothing is burning down for the next two weeks of your vacation." Lucy recites, reading off the schedule from her tablet.

"Perfect. I couldn't ask for a better secretary Lucy, you make my life so much easier." Zeref compliments her.

"Thank you Mr. Dragneel."

"Ugh, enough with the Mr. Dragneel stuff! You can call us by our first names you know! We're practically family!" Natsu complains, "and what's with those dorky glasses?"

"Shut up Na-!" Lucy takes a small breath and pushes her NON-DORKY glasses up, "I'm just trying to keep my professionalism up and practice it for when your guest arrives. I do not want them to think poorly of you two because you allow your secretary to call you by your first names."

"Screw what others think, I like you Luce, so you have to call me Natsu. Boss orders. Now come on, show us to the buffet here at the hotel. Another boss order!" Natsu cheers slipping his arm away from her and heading towards the entrance of the hotel.

Lucy sighs and shakes her head at his poor manners.

"He's right you know, relax a bit. If you call me Mr. Dragneel again you're fired." Zeref teases ruffling up her hair.

He pulls the bun out and lets her ponytail fall flat against the side of her head, running his fingers through it to make it a little neater. Next he pulls off her glasses and puts it in his chest pocket, showing off her bright chocolate eyes. There it is, how she always looks. Lucy smiles at him before her face turns a little... pale.

"Zeref... Mavis plans on coming here in a week. I told her you would be staying here two weeks prior to the wedding and she told me she would move her schedule around so she'd be able to get here early as well."

If he's surprised Zeref doesn't show it at all on his face. He simply takes a small breath and nods his head.

"I didn't know if you wanted me to lie-"

"No, that's alright. You did the right thing. Thank you Lucy."

"Of course Zeref, anytime."

The two of them stand there looking at each other, not moving. Natsu looks behind his shoulder and sees he's alone. He spots his two favorite people still standing where they were before and narrows his eyes.

"How did she sound?"

A wide smile appears on Lucy's lips, "excited! And I don't think it was for the wedding!"

He sees his brother blushing and Lucy smile so brightly it makes something in his stomach feel sick. He charges back over to where he left them and wraps one arm around Lucy, the other around Zeref, and then starts pulling them in.

"Come on you two! Stop wasting time!" He laughs.

"Natsu! Hold it! I'm tripping!" Lucy shrieks.

"And I do not need to be manhandled!" Zeref yells out.

Natsu just ignores them though. Payback, he thinks. Payback.
