Natsu looked up when he felt his wife shuffle. Lucy blinked open her eyes, taking in her surroundings. She was at home. Natsu stood slightly and caressed her face.
"How ya feelin?"
"N-Natsu?! When did you get here?!"
"Well I walked into the guild right when you fainted."
"I fainted?!"
"I just said that Luce."
Lucy huffed and lightly smacked her husband's shoulder.
"So... Why did you faint?" Natsu questioned.
"Uh..." Lucy sweated. She wanted to do something cute to tell him! She hadn't gotten the chance to think of some clever way to break it to him. A card or a game or something! In the very least make him breakfast and surprise him...
Natsu was staring at her intensely, as if waiting for her answer.
"Er... Natsu... I-" Lucy took a deep breath. It really shouldn't be this hard to tell him. "I wanted to tell you a different way but..."
Natsu placed his hands on either side of her face, tugging it up to make her look at him. He smiled softly. "Luce... Just tell me."
"I- I'm... pregnant."
He beamed. "I know."
She gawked at him. "Y-you know?!"
He shrugged. "Yeah."
"How? Did they tell you?" She narrowed her eyes. Natsu sweated, Lucy could go from zero to one hundred in a split second. You could see the murder in her eyes.
"No! Nobody told me! I could tell by your smell."
She stared at him, bewildered.
He elaborated, "Your smell has changed. A new scent has mixed with yours- the smell of our baby."
Natsu beamed widely as he said that phrase. Our baby.
Lucy choked out a bubble of laughter. "Yeah... our baby. We're going to have a baby."
Natsu laughed as well, pulling her in for a huge hug. "We're going to have a baby!"
