Chapter 3
-After School (Four days since Lucy moved)
Natsu, Lucy , Juvia and Gray went home from school together. They rode in a gray van that belongs to Lucy given by her father for her transporation for school. Gray was the driver with Juvia sitting in the front seat beside him. Erza went on a date she promised with Jellal after school.
Natsu and Lucy was at the back seat, and as usual for Natsu, he was having his motion sickness again. Even though Lucy is still upset with the Lisanna matter, she cant help but giggle at Natsu.
"Gray, is Natsu always like this in transportation?" Lucy asked to Gray earning a death glare from Juvia
"yeah he is, he looks awful doesn't he?" Gray answered to Lucy
"Love rival is talking to Gray-sama" Juvia said softly as she whimpers
Juvia Lockser, 17 year old girl with blue hair and deathly glare for girls who are around Gray, except Erza of course. She is really obsessed with Gray who liked her secretly. Sometimes she spaces out only mumbling 'Gray-sama Gray-sama' over and over again. That's how obsessed she is.
"Juvia?" Gray called out to her really gently
"Gray-sama?" Juvia responded while beaming in happiness
"would you…uhmm" Gray couldn't seem to finish what he was saying
"Gray-sama?" Juvia's heart was beating really fast
"would you go on a date with me tonight?" Gray asked shyly as a blush appeared on his face.
"I would love to Gray-sama" Juvia beamed. She was really excited for tonight, her first date with the man of her dreams 'Gray'. She felt like her heart was going to explode as she blushed madly.
Lucy watched them both as she thought of how sweet they are. She took a look at Natsu who was still suffering from motion sickness. She giggled a bit until she heard
"Lucyyyyy" Natsu called out pathetically as if he has no energy at all
"What now?" Lucy said as Natsu laid his haid on Lucy's lap.
"That's more comfortable" was all Natsu could say. He felt comfort and warmth in Lucy's touch.
Lucy began to play with his hair. Twirling it, brushing it. Natsu fell asleep in her lap as she was smiling like an idiot with her heart beating so fast. Oh, how she loves how this idiot makes her heart beat.
They arrived in front of Nanohanasou. Gray escorted Juvia out while Natsu is still asleep in her lap. He looks so cute and Lucy was flushed from embarrassment. She tried to wake Natsu up but all he responded was 'umm' 'five more minutes' 'Lucy'. Lucy tried to stand up and leave Natsu all by himself at the car. She tried to get up but Natsu got up first.
"Luce"
"Yeah"
"I still feel bad Lucyyy" Natsu said as he asked Lucy for help to bring him in his room. Lucy helped him up as he wrapped an arm around her shoulders as Lucy supported Natsu's back.
Lucy threw Natsu in his bed and said " your really heavy"
Lucy turned around to leave but a pair of strong arms had held her waist asking not to leave. Lucy thought that if this Lisanna girl will come back, she wont have any opportunity to be with Natsu, so she treasures every moment she had with Natsu.
"Natsu, I gotta go"
"stay with me Luuccyyyy!" Natsu said without realizing it, it just blurted out of his mouth. Lucy blushed ten times Erza's hair. She struggled but Natsu was too strong as he hugged Lucy from the back. She gave up and stayed with him for an hour.
Natsu laid in his bed, not breaking his backhug to Lucy and unconsciously breathed in Lucy's neck. "you smell wonderful" Natsu said as he fell asleep. Lucy blushed so hard that she cant even hide it
'How did I fall for this idiot? It's only been days. Is that even possible?' Lucy thought
-ONE HOUR LATER
"Lucy-san?" Juvia called out for Lucy as she opened the door of Lucy's room. But surprisingly, she wasn't there
"Mira-san! Have you seen Love rival Lucy?" Juvia asked the white haired girl named MiraJane
Mirajane Strauss, Lisanna and Elfman's older sister and the dormitory head master. She is 25 years old with white hair and match making habits. She loves match making but how cannot she match make herself with Freed (Will be on the next chapter). She loves sweets and drawing but apparently she draws like a 5 year old kid which always makes Gray laugh and says "Who the hell drew this? This is sh*t" and she always cry when Gray says that.
"Lucy? Ohhh, I wonder where could she be?" Mira said giving Juvia a wink
Meanwhile
"Oi Flamebrain!" Gray called him as he widen his eyes as he saw him hugging Lucy. Juvia went to Gray and
"Gray-sama, have you seen—" Juvia was cut by Gray as he closed Natsu's room and had wide eyes but soon became soft when she saw Natsu and Lucy hugging and cuddling
"that's just sweet" Juvia smiled and oh how she wish that Gray and she were like that.
"shhh… we cant disturb them" Gray said as he left a note infront of Natsu's door and left with Juvia for their date.
-AT NATSU
"Hmm? I thought I heard a-" Natsu was shocked as he woke up and saw Lucy sleeping in his arms peacefully.
"So pretty" Natsu smiled warmly as he brushed some few strands of hair from Lucy's face. "You look like an angel Luce" he said as he kissed Lucy's forehead. He was silent himself for a few seconds and…
"Did I just kissed Lucy on her forehead?" Natsu said out loud but not loud enough to make Lucy wake up
Natsu removed Lucy's head in his arms and said "What the hell is wrong with me?" Natsu thought as he could feel his loud heartbeet and see his blushing face. He was crazy! He's totally out of his mind!
Natsu went to the kitchen to grab a glass of water. Maybe water could snap him back to his senses
"Hey there Natsu" Mira greeted the pink haired boy
"M-M-Mira" Natsu stuttered
"Ara ara Natsu, did something happened? You seem so red? OHHH! ARE YOU BLUSHING?" Mirajane teased Natsu as Natsu blushed harder.
"M-Mira, why is my heart beating so fast? So fast that is seems like its going to explode" Natsu said with a confused face. He's afraid. He had never felt like this before. Sure he likes Lisanna and Lisanna makes his heart beat too, but not like this one. Not like this.
Natsu went back to his room and watched Lucy while she's still sleeping. For some reasons, he wanted to be near her and feel her warm, comforting touch. He leaned closer to Lucy's face until their faces were just 2 inches apart. Natsu was about to kiss her unconsciously but suddenly, Lucy woke up seeing Natsu just an inch away from her. She blushed and froze.
"Pervert! What are doing in my room?" Lucy shouted at Natsu who facepalmed
"Uhmm Luce?First, this is my room, second, why are you here?" Natsu questioned the blond haired girl
"Why? Oh! You were having a motionion sickness and you asked me to stay with you" Lucy said
"And?" Natsu wants more information to what really happened. He couldn't believe that he really asked this weirdo to stay with him.
"And i was about to refuse and leave before you had taken a hold of my waist. You were too strong! I cant fight back" Lucy stated to Natsu who had a crimson red cheeks
"Uhmm. I-I uhmm." Natsu didn't know what to say. He kept on stuttering until Mirajane arrived.
"Natsu, Lucy. Im going to visit my mom and Elfman so I'll be gone for a week okay? Could you tell the others? Oh and the dinner is in the fridge. You just need to heat it up okay? " Mirajane asked the two frozen teens
"Uhmm, sure Mira-san" Lucy spoke up as Mira waved her hands for a goodbye leaving Natsu and Lucy alone In the house.
There was a silence after Mira left. Lucy had gone to her room and took a bath and Natsu did the same.
The blond girl had finished taken a bath and wore her cute pajamas and sleeve less sleeping blouse with yellow star patterns and light pink background. She hesitantly led to the kitchen. She was nervous, she's all alone with Natsu what if…? "SHIT LUCY! DON'T IMAGINE THINGS!" Lucy shout out loud in her thoughts. She headed to the kitchen down to the fridge and heated up their dinner.
When she's done, she called Natsu "Natsu! Dinner is ready!" Lucy called out
-NATSU POV
I'm done with my assignments and I already had a bath. I heard Lucy called and said that the dinner is ready. Gosh, I just love hearing her voice. I don't even know why im thinking of these things but I just do.
I headed down to the kitchen wearing a knee length pajama and a plain white shirt. As I looked around I saw her in her cute pajamas and blouse. Her hair was tied in a cute bun with a pink ribbon just like the color of my hair.
"hey there beautiful" I greeted her… WAIT! DID I JUST SAY BEAUTIFUL?
"H-hey" she replied nervously
We ate our dinner without even talking. An awkward silence between us until I spoke up
-NORMAL POV
"Luce?"
"Yeah"
"wanna play a game? I mean, I don't have anything to do now and Gray isn't here so I cant have my insults on him and you're the only one here. But its nothing special! Really!" Natsu said to Lucy as if he was hiding something. Lucy found it pretty cute. No, too cute that she cant held in and giggled at the cuteness of Natsu.
"Why are you laughing?"
"Im not laughing! It's a giggle pinky! Anyway, sure! I'll go up to your room after I wash the dishes okay?
"Really?" Natsu asked happily as he stormed up to his room and prepared his game.
Lucy couldn't help but smile warmly at her friend. It has only been days since she has moved here and yet now, she felt like everybody in Nanohanasou especially Natsu, are her bestfriends.
As she was done washing the dishes, she headed up and knocked on Natsu's door and called him
"Natsuuuuuuuu!"
"hiya Luce!" Natsu greeted her and "Welcome to my room!"
"Whoa Natsu! Your room sure is clean, not like Gray told me" Lucy said
"umm yeah" Natsu sweatdropped. 'That popsicle is gonna pay!' Sure, before Natsu's room was messy as hell but he took the opportunity to clean it when Lucy was still washing the dishes. He cant let a girl see how messy his room was!
Natsu and Lucy were laughing and playing the game. Natsu has lost 6 times to Lucy already
"Luce! Your cheating aren't you?!" Natsu gave her a puppy eyes.
"No pinky, im just good playing at this and—" Lucy couldn't finish what she was saying, the electricity went off and there were no lights and Lucy is afraid of the dark.
"Wait here Luce, im gonna check it out"
"No! Don't leave me!" Lucy said softly. She grabbed Natsu's shirt. As soon as Natsu had felt that she was holding in to his shirt she quickly held Lucy's hand and assured her that its okay.
"Its okay Luce, im here, its gonna be okay" Natsu said as he kissed Lucy's forehead lightly.
'Shit! Not again! Why do I always kisses her without knowing? Its like my body is doing it without my permission' Natsu thought as he felt that Lucy froze.
"Friendly comforting kiss" Natsu told Lucy. Lucy felt like crying. Friendly?
Natsu and Lucy went out and checked whats wrong. Mrs Spetto said that the circuit broke and the electricity will be back tomorrow morning. They headed back to Natsu's room and stayed there. They sat at Natsu's bed as a single candle was the only thing that gave them light. Lucy yawned, she was sleepy but she cant because if she do, she will be alone in her room without lights and it made her afraid.
"Luce, you should be back to your room, your sleepy"
"but Natsu, its dark there, im afraid" Lucy said and Natsu sighed. Natsu went somewhere and grabbed a comforter and wrapped it around both of them with him giving Lucy a backhug. It was warm, Lucy loved it as they fell asleep together with a single comforter wrapped around them.
Okay, I know I said that Jellal will be introduced here but I had changed my mind. I'll introduced him in the next along with Freed and the next chapter would have something about Lisanna.
Since its already summer, my updates will be faster , maybe 3-4 times a week
