S"Achoo, achoo gehh Why me ?." Said Lucy, who was continuing to sneeze repeatedly.
"Gesundheit. Your not getting sick now are you Lucy?" Natsu asking in a mild worried tone.
"I sure hope not, it would suck now more then ever, considering the festival is in two days. Gahh I'm blaming you for it. She said."
"Meeee, Why me ?"
"Because, you said that your flame troia was gonna last until we got back to the guild. Plus you created an avalanche dummy," She stated in an unpleasant mood.
Natsu knowing why it was his fault, just stayed quiet until she cooled off.
"Umm im sorry, if you don't mind me interupting, said the young wind dragon slayer. I over heard you talking about troia?
"yeah Natsu over here goofed up the spell"
"No I didnt I got it right. I just miss timed when it would wear off, mummbling the last part to himself.
"Actually he didn't get it wrong Wendy explained. You see troia are like quick boosts so they eventually get weaker as time passes. I thought I told you Natsu ni-san."
"Ohh I..I hehe.. I must of, sort of zoned out at that last part when you were teaching me how to use it. Hehe sorry Wendy." Natsu rubbing the back of his neck in embarrassment.
"Leave it to Natsu to goof up and not pay attention." Said Lucy in jokingly way.
As they continued to walk, the weather had increased intensely it was almost zero visibility. The group were seen struggling to get down the mountain. They continued to battle through the storm and the relentless winds howling into the sky. Making it difficult to keep there feets stabled to the slippery terrain, and trying to keep their eyes opened without having them dry up.
The temperature dropping rapidly and the sun going down wasn't helping the cause. Struggling with the intense blizzard, they kept proceeding forward.
Natsu seeing how he's team minus Gray, who was already use to this type of weather were struggling. He began to think how to help them. Thinking wasnt he's strong point but nontheless, an idea quickly came to him acting fast he put his plan into action.
"Here goes!! Fire Dragon flame cyclone." He broke the silent. Everyone now turning to face him of what he was yelling about.
As flames began to ignite from his hands causing them to be manipulated in the form of a mini cyclone. Flames began mildly spinning around his guild mates. They instintly felt the warmth of the air. Everybody feeling a sign of relieve.
Like the rays of the sun breaking through the clouds.
Lucy was mesmerized by the flames. With an amazed look, She couldn't help but keep staring at the way the flames moved.
Surrounding her. She mildly spoke in her mind.
"You would think fire would burn your skin off. Yet it feels like a sanctuary of warmth."
Turning her head to face Natsu she spoke under here breath.
"Who would have thought he could come up with a brilliant idea. Creating something so beautiful and harmless. Especially coming from him of all people the one who destroys everything.", Quietly laughing to herself at the last part.
Watching the flames around him showed a new light to him, she couldnt help but stare at the way he lit up like a spark. Something surrounded by his element gave him new features.
Feeling herself warming up even more then usual she turned away, she felt confused as to why it was happening so fast. She touched her face with her hands to feel just how warm she had gotten.
"Am I getting a fever," she said to herself, clearly knowning it was something much more different.
"I.. I cant be.. Can..can I ? she said stuttering to herself.
Turning to face him again, her eyes closing ever so slightly in admiration, while placing a hand on her heart in a loving way.
Just then thoughts of Natsu being around her, warming her body with his body heat, his arms wrapping around her waist started popping up. Lucy's eyes fully closed continued her day dream of her and Natsu sharing a place together, enjoying a warm bath, while he massaged her back, as she did the same for him. Sharing a moment of love. Lucy was in utter bliss, as her day dream intensified calling him to join her to sleep with her in bed. The beginning image of him under the sheets with her, were soon fading, as she heard someone calling out to her.
She started to feel someone nudging at her, and after a few more seconds quickly opened her eyes, a shy blush had appeared on her face.
Staring at the floor Lucy couldn't believe what she imagined. Her and Natsu living together, sharing a bed together and..., Shaking off the images once again blushing even more so this time.
"Natsu what did you do to me ? she said in her mind while blushing lovingly.
Still lost in thought and dazed, she hadn't completely noticed the person in front of her calling, until the voice and the person's figure became clearer to her.
"Hey Lucy.. Lucy is everything okay?, he called out to her while softly shaking her."
Fully knowing now who it was. she was
trying to Respond to him calmly, but her mind was still to dased.
"Uhh.. uhh..yeah everything's fine Natsu" she said, Sounding so nervous in front of him.
"Are you sure ?, your face is a bit pink" he continued.
"Yeah im sure, it's probably just a small fever I'm getting, she lied."
"Well then if you say so. Here hop on and I'll carry you." Natsu turning his back to her so she can climb on him.
Lucy feeling a little unease about being carried by him considering the images she had of him didnt think it was a good idea. Her heart was leading her to him. She and her heart both knew what they wanted and without a thought more she had climbed onto his back.
"Hold on tight okays, and dont worry I'll keep you save, I promise, flashing one of his warm smiles.
Lucy did as he said and was holding onto Natsu firmly, instintly feeling his warmth radiating from his body, once again having the feelings as before reappear on her mind, brought her something very unusual and embarrassing. Feeling something wet near her thighs shocked Lucy from her thoughts. She instead wondered what dripped from between her inner thighs. Thinking the worst she made a mental note of the month and day, but soon remebered it wasn't time for that yet to happen. In an instint she knew what had happened. Hoping he wouldnt notice, she quickly brushed it off from her memory instead, Looking at his smile as he turned to face her, She could feel herself begin to imagine his warm lips on hers, quickly shaking it off again. she did admit enjoying the comfort he brought her.
"What did he do to me, to act this way around him ?" she asked herself again.
"I mean he's my bestfriend for crying out loud plus he's annoying sometimes and very loud too. Then again he is really kind and cares for all of us, not to mention he can be cute when he sleeps and... ohh boy unable to finish her sentence just burried her face in his back.
"Hey now, Stop tickling my neck will yeah" he said.
Lucy at hearing this decided to mess with him.
"No way this is pay back for entering my room without permission," as she continued to nuzzle her hair on the back of his neck causing him to feel ticklish.
"Your gonna make me loose my balance, Im already having trouble carrying you. Stop eating so much at night will yea, said Natsu."
"Hey im not heavy," as she pulled his ears back with rage.
"Gah.. gahh.. i was joking let go now, he said in pain
"Nuh uhh you said to hold on tight remember."
"Not like that, you know what i ment"
After a few more seconds she had let go of his ears, and went back to gripping on his neck for security.
Feeling save in his presences soon began to feel sleepy, as the warmth from him began to feel like a cozy blanket.
As if a sixth sense, he spoke up to her,
"Luce if your tired go ahead and sleep dont worry I'll keep you save." he said
she nodded and soon after fell asleep on his back smiling.
Natsu hearing her softly snore quietly let out a chuckle and increased his body heat to prevent her from getting hyperthermia as he strengthen his grip a bit more so she wouldnt fall off.
Soon continued walking down the mountain with the rest of the group.
As watching from the distance a blue cat was joking around with himself.
"He lovveess her" Smack !! Oww Carla whyd you hit me. "shushh, you know why" she responded. As they too followed suit in getting off the mountain.
