... Chapter Starts...

The boy 'Natsu' grew up nicely and now he was almost four years while Gray was only younger than Natsu with two months. Both boys were still attached to each other as if someone had glued them together. Hotaru was happy that Natsu had a friend along with Lucy who was also a very precious friend to both of them. Hotaru had several photos for them as they grew up and she is still treasuring them and even updating.

"Don't you like Gray too much, Natsu?"

"Yea. 'Tsu wov Gray." Natsu smiled.

Hotaru chuckled and went to wash the dishes in the kitchen while watching over Natsu who was eating quickly now, eager to finish and go and play with Gray.

Dong!

"Mommy! Mommy!"

"I'll get that, don't dare to move, and finish your breakfast."

Natsu nodded while Hotaru smiled and went to get the door.

"Miss 'Hotaww!"

"My beautiful Lucy~"

Hotaru quickly hugged the blonde girl and carried her up, kissing her small cheeks over and over again making the girl giggle loudly while Gray smiled that small shy smile of his, seeing the two girls hugging each other.

Gray had brought Lucy along so that when Natsu finishes his breakfast, the three of them can play together.

Lucy was wearing a sleeveless dress that had white and pink colors with the graphic of some kind of an animal named 'Plue' on her tiny chest. She was wearing heart shaped cute earrings and her long blonde hair was tied in a pony-tail fashion making Hotaru don't want to release the girl from her bear hug.

Lucy's sandals almost fell from her small feet because of the way Hotaru was carrying her and the girl giggled non-stop. " 'Hotaww! Me shoe will fall!"

"Oh sweetie~ I missed you!"

"Me miss you too! Mommy say 'Wocy~ tell 'Hotaww, Mommy say Hi'. Mommy miss 'Hotaww too."

That was too strange, considering the fact that the three families usually see each other on a fucking daily basis. Then again…. The three families had grown so fond of one another the past four years. They did everything together. Birthdays, parties, trips, and vacations were shared and every day, Hotaru and Igneel were certain that they were lucky getting into this neighborhood. It's like their fate was to see each other and be like one big family.

Not only the adults got along, but also their kids. Lucy, Natsu, and Gray's friendship was unbreakable. Sure they were all friends to Ultear, but Ultear was more of the quiet shy type, and she didn't usually get to go with them out more often because of school. The three young kids were just like three siblings, not to mention Natsu's and Gray's glue-like relationship.

"I miss Layla too. Oh Gray baby, what's mom doing now? Did she tell you when she'll come over today?"

Gray blushed and stuttered which was always the case with the adorable child. "Um, Mommy say, ' 'Ray, Tell Hot-Head me no come today. Me busy with 'Tear in school.' So Ur no comes today."

Hotaru had a vein popping in her head and her eyes twitched. Ur always does that to her. She always doesn't come when Hotaru makes the best cookies and lemonade juice. However, that scary face disappeared as she saw the adorable Blue-eyed boy in front of her with the pink cheeks.

"Ok baby. Why don't we go and see Natsu?"

"Yaaay! Natsuuu!" Lucy giggled and hugged Hotaru closer as the lady laughed and took Gray's small hand to guide him inside the house. When Natsu saw his friends, his eyes lit up and grinned.

"Mommy~ 'tsu finish!" Natsu said as he climbed down the kitchen stool running to his mom.

"Why don't you go wash up? Gray and Lucy will be waiting here."

"Okay!" Natsu ran to the bathroom and Hotaru smiled while holding Lucy in her arm. The girl was just an Angel.

Natsu finished washing and came grinning looking at his two friends. "Mommy, can 'tsu go pway now?"

"Sure. Come on, I'll walk you guys out, just wait 'till I grab my purse."

"Ok."

Hotaru put Lucy down on the couch and went to get the keys and purse to take the kids to the park. After she finished, the trio walked hand in hand in front of Hotaru who was laughing as she heard their complicated discussions.

Lucy was in the middle while Gray and Natsu were on either side holding her hands. Gray was shy as always, but he participated in the talk with a word or two, in contrary to Natsu and Lucy who were so noisy in the morning.

Hotaru always liked to walk and listen to their talks. In fact, she always kept a camera with her so that she could video tape some of their moments and take pictures too and it was beginning to be such a wonderful time-killer hobby. She could never get enough of how the three young kids seemed to be completely in sync with each other.

She was holding her camera and recording as she saw the kids saying 'Hi' to a shop owner in the end of the street. The guy was so kind to give the three small kids free apples from the shop as he seemed to be very familiar with them. Gray and Natsu usually pass on that street whenever they want to play with Hotaru or Igneel or Ur, so the man was used to these three kittens and he loved them so much. They even called him 'Jii-chan'.

After a while they reached the playground and Hotaru loved how the weather was nice as she sat down on a bench looking out for the three kids who were playing together. She smiled and after a while she closed her camera and just enjoyed the breeze that messed around with her pinky long locks.

'Baka Ur.'

Ur was so busy lately. After all, the woman has a life too. Hotaru discovered four years ago that Ur was some major-well-respected CEO of a big crystal company. It was rare when Ur worked back then, so that's why probably Hotaru thought that Ur didn't have a job. She didn't know that Ur had taken a break from work temporarily for Gray's sake just as she did for Natsu.

But that was four years ago.

Since the last Year, Ur had been called frequently to manage things in the company, and Hotaru saw less and less of her best friend and maybe the one truly friend of all times. And Ultear going to school also didn't help. However, Hotaru shrugged all of those negative thoughts. One of those days, she's gonna go back to work with Igneel who was dying already to have her with him again.

That's why Hotaru loved weekends. She could slack all the time and see all of her friends as much as she wishes… and not just go and yell at Ur at her company telling her that she should quit for good.

Yeah….. She did that. Once.

Ok, maybe three times.

How did it end?

Imagine.

Place: The Company lobby.

Time: In the damn morning.

Status: All employees are watching within the company Lobby.

Ur had a vein popping in her head while she stands in her formal business suit watching a fuming hot-heat in front of her, tapping her foot on the ground and all employees witness this. Ur had always been their most respected leader that could not be defied by rivals or whoever. That's right.

That's why Ur had called the building security to escort the pink-head along with Natsu and Gray out of the building. She had an image to preserve in that fucking place. And she certainly didn't care about Hotaru's crocodile tears. She could just burn in hell, and she wouldn't care.

Hotaru sighed. That was embarrassing, but she couldn't help herself being separated from her friend cruelly like that even if her friend was a total ass.

"I bet someone is thinking that I'm a total ass."

"U-U-U-UR!"

"Hello Hot-head."

"UR!" Hotaru jumped and hugged her friend instantly like she hadn't seen her in months.

"UGH! You're fucking breaking my so-delicate ribcage."

"YOU! H-HOW? Gray told me that you won't come!"

"Man, aren't you always too loud idiot? I told Gray to tell you that just so I can see you sullen face. It's just priceless every time I see it."

"…"

Hotaru's eyes widened as she looked to the woman as if she had said something so very much devastating.

"Sometimes I don't know what you would do without me." Ur said proudly crossing both of her hands on her chest.

Hotaru just blinked several times dumbfounded. "You bastard…"

"Doesn't matter. I got you, haha."

Hotaru pouted and sat next to Ur on the bench. "You used Gray to your own dirty purposes?"

"He didn't know he was lying alright? Now, knock it off with the drama tone and look to yourself before you start blaming me. You're the one who used both Gray and Natsu to your own 'dirty' purposes."

"WHEN WAS THAT?! I NEVER DID SUCH-"

"When you came to the company to disgrace me in front of about 100 employees carrying Gray and Natsu to make me feel sympathetic with you. Shall I go on?"

"-thing….. you were asking for it! Like if you didn't show up now, I would've done the same thing today!"

"Good thing I showed up, or your sorry ass would've been dragged shamefully again outside my building."

Hotaru faked some tears.

"And those are not gonna fool me Hotaru. I've learned my lesson."

"Che. You're so mean."

"And you're crazy. I've never seen someone doing what you did for an enemy, let alone a friend. Those shit-bags thought that you were from a rival company."

Hotaru stuck her tongue out to Ur who was pissed. "Evil monster CEO woman!"

"That's not an insult. In fact, I'm proud of that. It's so damn good to see the horror in my employees' eyes. It makes me feel power. Something that you're not familiar with, Hot-Head."

Hotaru sighed. "I'm sorry. I guess I'm just an idiot."

"….."

"I miss you so much, that's all."

"Hotaru. I miss you too, but it's out of my hands alright? It's not like that company will run itself."

"I know. Sorry."

Ur smirked feeling victory. She turned her attention to Natsu and the others who were playing and clearly enjoying every minute of it.


Gray's tears were all over his face, apparently feeling so pained. His knee was slightly bleeding.

He had fell from the swing earlier in the park and got hurt making Hotaru and Ur panic, and taking him home. Even though Natsu wasn't at pain at all, he was crying making Lucy release some tears too.

Natsu was very sad. It wasn't the first time that he sees Gray getting hurt, but it always made him very angry and sad.

Ur bandaged the small blue-eyed kid's knee in like… five minutes, and scowled at the other kids who were overreacting.

"Ok, shut it both of you! He'll be just fine."

Natsu nodded and wiped his tears. " 'Tsu not crying."

Lucy giggled quickly recovering. " Wocy not crying."

Even if they did that, Gray was still crying silently with puffed pink cheeks making natsu hug the boy who was resting on the couch tightly, not wanting to let go.

Hotaru and Ur rolled their eyes.

'There they go again.'

Both parents went to the kitchen to prepare some snacks for their children.

"Oh Hotaru, Layla and I decided to go out this weekend with the kids to the fair. Are you going to come with Igneel?"

"Suuuure. Natsu has been dying to go there since they post those ads on TV."

"Good. Lucy's father is coming too."

"Great. Finally, we'll get to have a good time."

"I hope this makes up my absence lately."

Hotaru made a thinking face, then shrugged smiling that stupid care-free smile of hers as she kissed Ur's cheek.

"Thanks."


Hotaru and her two friends were sitting on a bench at the fair watching their children playing together. Igneel and Lucy's father were playing with them too leaving the ladies to do nothing but enjoy the peaceful afternoon.

After Hotaru had insisted that Igneel talks to Lucy's father, the man returned to his senses and tried to save as much time as he could for Lucy and Layla. Hotaru had always imagined the man as a jerk, but now as she watches him playing with the kids, she smiled and shrugged the first impression about him. He was certainly a kind person, but didn't show that more often.

She also smiled at Natsu who was grinning his adorable grin, giving a rose to Gray who sat next to him.

"Wow… you guys watch that." Hotaru whispered to Layla and Ur to look at the boys. They smiled as soon as they saw the scene. Gray took the rose shyly and kissed Natsu's cheek who giggled.

Speaking of kissing….

Something very weird has been happening making Ur and Hotaru speechless every time they see it.

It happened that one day Ur was leaving Hotaru's home, and so they both hugged before Ur and Gray leave the house and Ur had accidently kissed Hotaru's lips instead of the cheek. Both women giggled and it became an innocent habit that they slightly brush their lips together when greeting each other. They practically became sisters and they acknowledged that small kiss on the lips as a lovely friendly gesture and after a while they discovered many countries that did that ritual with mothers and daughters or between sisters. They laughed when they knew that.

Igneel was surprised the first time he saw them saying goodbye to each other, but after he had seen them doing it several times, it became something normal.

That habit had rubbed off on their kids, Natsu and Gray. Whenever they visited each other, they kissed, whenever they were leaving each other they kissed and kissed when saying goodnight to each other.

Hotaru and Ur had a priceless look on their faces first time they see it, they tried stopping that habit themselves, but they couldn't because….. It was a habit. Gray and Natsu didn't really pay attention to what happened when they were seen outside doing that. Mainly they earned surprised questioning looks. And sometimes 'What the fuck?!'

Hotaru and Ur decided finally to let their kids be, seeing cuteness and innocence whenever the boys did it.

Natsu and Gray were very much fond of each other. Hotaru saw a very beautiful relationship blooming between both kids and wandered what will happen in the future when they are adults. Will they still be like this?

She shook her head. Of course they will. Seeing them now assured her that no matter what happened, they will always stick together and sometimes, she even believed that they couldn't live without being with one another.

However, the future didn't belong to Hotaru.

She hoped it to be so true though.
