Something more than friends!

I DO NOT OWN FAIRY TAIL.
Through the whole night, Lucy just couldn't wrap her head around the fact that she was falling for one of her best friends, and on top of that. She highly doubted that he would want to be with her. He never really jumped out as the relationship type.
Before she knew it, the sun was beating In her window and must have gotten about three hours sleep in the whole night.
She pulled herself out of the bed and walked to the bathroom to get showered and ready for work, she know that Natsu would be excited to start a new mission today. Even though she really wanted to just stay at the guild and just lazy around.
It took her half an hour to finally be ready to leave, she grabbed her bag and her celestial keys and finally, nearly forgetting Natsu's scarf that was lying folded on the bedside table.
She held the scarf up to her face and sniffed it, even though it was just after being cleaned, she could still get the indulging aroma of Natsu.
Her eyes snapped open, after realising what she was thinking in her head. She had never described Natsu's smell as indulging. What was wrong with her?
'Lucy!' a knock came to her window, she looked out to see the all too familiar figure of a blue cat, with wings, she opened and looked at him with an annoyed expression.
'What Happy.' She usually would be happy to see the little exceed, but lately he has been very annoying, making fun of her left right and centre.
When she got a good look at the exceeds face, her face dropped the annoyed expression.
'Natsu needs your help!' He cried out loudly.
'What?' Lucy answered shocked, what could have happened to him that he needed her help for?
'He's in big trouble and he needs your help Lucy!' not waiting for her to answer, he flew behind her and flew her out of the room with great speed.
'Happy! Tell me what happened.' The girl cried up to the girl while trying to hold her skirt down so no one from under them would see her panities.
'you'll find out when we get there.' Happy said.
Happy put her down in front of the guild, Lucy was confused, what could have happened to him here?
She ran in, looking around for the rosy haired mage, she caught sight of him on the other side of the room sitting at one of the empty tables looking down at something.
'Natsu.' She called as she nearly reached him 'What's wrong? What happened?
'Lucy..' he cut off, Lucy looked down at him, he didn't even look up at her as he talked 'Your too late…'
'To late for what? What happened?' Lucy asked getting worried now.
'I WON!' he suddenly bounced up and cheered punching both his fists in the air in questionable pride.
'What? You won what?' Lucy was getting irritated now.
Natsu turned towards her 'I challenged Loki to a fight and I won!' he cheered.
Lucy felt like she could have murdered him right there, she knew Loki could come and go as he pleased without draining her magic, but why was she called to help.
'I went to get you Lucy because it looked like Natsu was getting really hurt and you're the only one that can stop Loki.' Happy cried as he suddenly laid down on her breasts, she shooed him off in annoyance as she sat down at the table trying to control her anger, getting her all worked up for nothing.
'You guys are so annoying.' The celestial mage mumbled into her hands.
'Hey, you had my scarf I was looking for it.' Natsu said sitting down beside her, she looked up at him quickly noticing that he was closer than she expected, he was looking down and she followed her gaze.. she was wearing his scarf.
She must have wrapped it around her neck when happy was flying her to guild in case it flew away.
'Lucy what are you doing!?' Happy yelled at the girl, she looked away from Natsu and to the blue cat in confusion. 'Who said you could wear Igneel's scarf, only Natsu can wear it, no one else!' he crossed his arms in anger.
Lucy blushed and looked at Natsu apologetically, she didn't mean to get them angry, but Natsu's face was a picture of calm as he looked at his scarf wrapped around his best friend's neck.
'Happy, chill, go get a couple of drinks for yourself, I'm sorry I made you worried, now I think you need to have a drink to ease the tension.' Natsu said to the exceed handing him come jewels to buy some drinks for himself.
The exceed didn't argue, he just smiled widely at the money and half flew and half danced away from them.
When he was gone Lucy turned to her friend. 'I'm sorry, I didn't know I was wearing it, I must have thrown it on when Happy was getting me from my room, I washed it for you again.' Lucy gave a small smiled to her teammate.
Natsu just kept looking at her with a no expression. 'It's okay Lucy, I don't care if you wear it, besides you did wash it for me, thanks for that, and why apologise, it looks good on you.'
Lucy knew that she had gone bright red to that, she didn't not expect Natsu to come out with something like that… it was… sweet.
Lucy smiled at time before reaching put to take it off. 'Well, next time you need it washed, you know where I am.' She said handing it to him; he looked down at it but didn't take it 'What? Have I contaminated it with some girl virus and now you don't want it?' Lucy guessed, knowing him all too well to know what would be a typical thing for Natsu to say.
She chuckled and shook his head slightly, 'No, it's just that's its cold and you should keep it to keep you warm, you obviously didn't have time grab a jumper leaving your apartment.' Natsu said gesturing to her skirt and short sleeved top.
He took the scarf from her hold, fixed it and then threw it around her neck and balanced it right on her shoulders, she imagined that her face resembled the scarlet colour of Erza's hair right about now.
'I'll get it of you tomorrow.' Natsu smiled and then turned as he heard his next opponent walk into the guild, Gray Fullbuster. 'Got to go Lucy, talk to you later.' Was all he said before walking away, leaving Lucy along to try and control the blood racing to her head.
Okay, she had made up her mind, either she was losing her mind completely, or she was falling helplessly for her teammate and best friend.
