That night, a certain men decided to drop by even though he has been reminded by master not to disturb Lucy and Hikari. Well, it is typical of Natsu to invade Lucy's apartment without permission.
Natsu pov
After I make sure Happy have fallen asleep, I decided it is time for me to visit Lucy and Hikari. Speaking about Hikari, she smells a lot like… me? I wonder why? As I reach Lucy's apartment, I decided not to enter her room using window but the chimney instead. Lucy always yells at me if I enter her room using the window, I guess if I change the entrance she will not be THAT mad. I laugh at my brilliant idea and jumping on her roof, entering the chimney. I safely land in Lucy's room but heck! No more chimney! It is too narrow and dusty! I dusted my vest carefully and slow enough not to wake Lucy up. I walk towards Lucy's bed as slow and careful as I can. I was stunned by the two girls on the bed. They look …. Similar! The little girl is like a spitting image of Lucy! I calm myself down and walk toward Lucy's couch. I don't know why but I don't want to leave Lucy alone with this girl. I know Hikari will not harm her but I just feel it is right for me to stay here. I lay on the couch while staring at the two angels on the bed. Wait! Calling Lucy…angel?! That's just weird; I think Lucy's weirdness has rubbed on me.
Normal pov.
Natsu still staring at Lucy but his eyes shifted to Hikari who seems to have a nightmare. She moves to right and left before jolted up from her sleep. She wiped her forehead, looks around the house and sighed. She then frown and take a deep breath, to calm herself. She then sniffed the air and gasp as she smells similar scent. Hikari look around and found Natsu with dumbfounded expression. She wanted to wake Lucy up but Natsu put his palm on Hikari's mouth to prevent her doing so.
"Shh.. Calm down, this is me. Natsu." Natsu said as slow as he can.
Hikari nodded and Natsu release his hand, sighing hard. His heart feels like to explode the time Hikari wake up. Waking Lucy up at night is not a good move, especially when she just got back from mission.
"What are you doing here?" Hikari asked, a bit loud.
"Shh..come with me, we talk on the roof."
"Roof?" Hikari is dragged by Natsu to the roof. He opens the window, jumped here and there and they reach Lucy's roof.
"P- Natsu! It is awesome! Do it again!" Hikari said in excitement.
Natsu sweat dropped for a moment and smile. "Sure! But, next time. Now, we can talk without waking Lucy up." Natsu grinned.
Natsu make Hikari sit beside him carefully to make sure she get her balance before releasing her small body.
"Oh! I almost forgot. Why are you here?" Hikari look at Natsu's eyes directly.
Natsu scratches his cheeks making a sheepish smile. "W-Well, I just want to make sure you guys are safe! Yeah.. that's all!"
"I see." Hikari answered and rubbing her eyes sleepily.
"You're still sleepy didn't you? Sorry for dragging you here. Let's put you on bed again." Natsu takes Hikari's wrist but she shakes her head.
"I'm not that sleepy. I want to sit here longer. Can you stay with me?" Hikari pleaded.
Natsu make a confused face but nodded. "Sure."
"Anyway Hikari, did you have a nightmare? Mind telling me?" Natsu started to make a conversation.
"How did you know?" Hikari tilted her head.
"U-umm.. I saw you seem uncomfortable in your sleep and jolted up in surprise. So, I guess your dream might not be a good one."
"Ano…. It's a dream about my papa." Hikari started. Natsu humming, waiting for her to continue her story.
"In that dream, my papa said he want to replace my mama. He wanted to make one of my aunties as her spouse. He said, he don't want to celebrate my birthday because of the date is the same as my mama death! I- I begged him but he said, my mother would have been alive if I am not born!" Hikari tell every inch of her dream and start tearing.
Hikari could not held back her tears and cry for the fourth time in a day. Natsu who shocked by her sudden outburst becomes flustered. "Oii, Don't cry."
Hikari did not stop and cry even louder. Natsu sighed . 'I really don't know how to handle a kid.' He thought. Natsu hug her small body, patting her back lightly. "Calm down okay. It is just a dream." His voice is slow and gentle making Hikari feel safe.
"Uhuh.. I'm-sorry. The-dream-is –just-too-scary-and-weird." Hikari hiccupped.
"Don't worry, it will never happen. Whoever your papa is, I'm sure he is not a bad guy." Natsu pull away from the hug and look at her confidently.
"How-can you-be so sure?"
"How can a bad guy have such a brave daughter like you?" Natsu grinned.
Hikari wiped her tears away and stare at Natsu with a blank face.
"H-hikari?" Natsu shakes her body lightly. "Is my word shocked you that much?" Natsu confused.
Hikari laugh.. hard "T-Thatdoesn't make sense at all. Hahaha!"
"W-what?! I'm just saying the truth Hikari. Sheesh, kids nowadays sure is scary. You and Asuka would make a good friend." Natsu crossing his hand, pouted.
"Asuka nee-chan?! She must be as clever as me right?" Hikari blurted out.
"Nee-chan? I guess she is around the same age as you. Yeah, too clever that send shiver on my spine." Natsu mumble.
"What are you talking about Papa?"
"P-papa?!" Natsu ask in disbelief. "I don't remember having kids with anyone. Wait.. I don't remember sleeping with any woman. Well, Lucy is an exception but just sleep! I never touch Lucy yet… And.. and.. Lucy never gets pregnant.. and.. and…." Nastu put his hand his head, thinking deeply.
"Hehe.. I'm sorry Uncle Natsu, my mouth just slipped. I kinda miss my Papa." Hikari admitted.
Natsu sighed deeply. "Ahhaahaha..You gave me a heart attack there Hikari." Then Natsu put his hand on Hikari's head, ruffle her soft pink hair. "You can call me Papa if you want. But keep it a secret from your father. I don't want to be treated as a criminal, stealing other people's kid." Natsu laugh at the last part and grinned.
Hikari could not help but grin back at him. 'Mama and Papa are really destined together. Their words are exactly the same.' Hikari thought.
"Let's put you back to sleep. If Lucy knows I kidnapped you, I'm sure she will punish me." Natsu take Hikari's hand, jumping down and put her on Lucy's bed.
"Hikari, let's talk again tomorrow. Papa will go home now." Natsu whispered with blushes appear on his cheek. A little embarrassed addressing himself as Papa.
Hikari just nodded. Before Natsu walk out of the window, he whispered again at Hikari. "Keep everything that happens tonight a secret okay. About your dream, I'm sure your Papa won't do something like that to you. And if he ends up doing that, come to me. I will kick you Papa's ass." Natsu grin and dashes out of Lucy's apartment.
Hikari lay back on the bed. There are 2 things she realizes about her Papa. The first is he is s complete idiot and second he have to kick his own ass if her dream ever come true. Hikari smile and fall in a deep slumber.
The next morning, Lucy wakes up from her sleep, yawning and stretching her body. Her smile appears as she sees a small figure beside her. Lucy goes to the kitchen slowly to make sure she doesn't wake Hikari up. She open her refrigerator and realize she don't have anything to make a breakfast.
Lucy's pov.
Looks like I don't have anything to make breakfast for Hikari. It is best for me to take Hikari out for breakfast. I decided to take a bath first and let Hikari sleep a little longer, she must be exhausted. I scanned around my apartment and saw ashes on my couch. I wonder why that happens. As far as I remember, Gray is the only one who enters my apartment using the chimney or Natsu tries to make a new trick? I become alert and walk to the bathroom, opening is slow and carefully. And…. Empty. Good, at least to one is here. I will have a word with Gray when I reach the guild today.
After I have finished my shower and dresses, I wake Hikari up, shaking her body gently. She grumbles a little and opens her big eyes, rubbing it and blinked a few times.
"Good morning Hikari!" I greeted.
"Mama!" She jumped on me, sobbing. I was surprised but nonetheless return her hug. "Hikari, it is not a good thing to start a day with tears." I wiped her tears and make her stand up straight. "A good day must start with a smile okay!" I winked. She nodded and smile to me. I think staying with her will make my heart melt anytime soon. I help her take her shower and dress.
"Hikari, I'm sorry. I don't have anything for breakfast. Let's go eat outside okay."
Hikari just nodded. "No problem mama!" She answered me cheerfully. I wanted hug her but I control myself. 'She is too cute!' I scream in my mind.
Normal pov.
Hikari and Lucy walk hand in hand to the nearest café. Hikari wanted to eat anything Lucy wanted to. Lucy then decided to take her to her favourite café near the guild. Before they even enter the café, Lucy heard her name being called by familiar voice.
"LUCY! HIKARI!" Natsu shouted while running towards them.
"Hello Natsu! What are you doing here?" Lucy asked.
"I wanted to join you guys!" Natsu huffed. "I waited the two of you at the guild but looks like you're late. I wanted to check on you guys and somehow, I see you here." Natsu explain breathlessly.
"Good morning Papa!" Hikari greeted.
"Oh, morning Hikari!" Natsu answered.
"W-wait, why Hikari call you papa?" Lucy shuttered, a little embarrassed.
Hikari wanted to answer but Natsu stopped her. "I will tell you later. But now, I am starving! Right Hikari?"
"Yups! I wanna eat!" Hikari shouted excitedly.
Lucy sighed and grinned. "Yosh! LET'S EAT! But if you want to join us, you will pay okay Natsu!" Lucy smirks and grabs Hikari's hand "Let's make Papa pay okay Hikari!" Lucy giggles.
"Papa will pay!" Hikari cheered.
"Aww.. Lucyy!" Natsu whined.
The three of them is having a good time together. Hikari and Natsu could not stop themselves, devouring everything served to them. Lucy just giggle and frowning. Now I have to deal with two Natsu. But, the little one is too cute in her own way. I sighed in defeat. This will be a long day.
To be continued!
