Hi guys! I was amazed with how much reviews I got and I want to thank all you reviewers! It really brought my spirit of a writer back up and I'm ready to write!

But before that let me answer a complication that some might have with this story. For one thing my stories are thought of right off the bat. I don't write my stories with a plan for the next chapter. I'm not exactly saying I winged it since I try to think of great situations for each chapter but pairing and those kinds of things are by what my readers want!

Okay also for voting. Honestly I lost track but I know for now is that NATSUxLUCY is on a flight! All you LAXUSxLUCY fan gotta catch up! Honestly because of the previous where the votes for LaLu was higher, it's gonna be a bit hard to turn the story but since it's Natsu I'll probably think of something hahha!

Anyhow! Read, Feedback, Pairing Vote in Review! I have no poll for this so don't ask me where the poll is hhahaha.

Previously:

She then blushed as she jumped in her bed, hugging Plue as she said, "I wonder what he wants…" Plue just stared at his beloved master as he just said, "Puuuun"

She lied in bed after turning off the light and hoped that tomorrow would come fast.

Chapter Four: Two Meetings, One Choice

The next morning Lucy woke up at 4 a.m. The sun was yet to brighten the sky, the clouds were beautiful in the dark night with the crescent moon hiding behind. She rubbed her eyes as she yawned, "Crap I woke up too early…"

However, if she had to be honest, she couldn't sleep at all. She was curious of what Laxus needed to say to her and she didn't know exactly what time he wanted her to come. She had the questions in her head. What time is early for him? I wonder if I leave right now I'd be too early? Or is he already there? He sighed as she couldn't keep her thoughts in her head anymore.

She got up and went to the bathroom as she took a shower and brushed her teeth. It took her a few minutes and she came out with a towel around her body. She walked towards her closet as she took out her uniform and put them on after her undergarment. She looked in the mirror to see what she was missing and it was her bow. She looked at the colors and saw yellow with one thunder, a pink one with small flame on the right, blue one with a snowflake, and one white one with white flame on it.

She thought and smiled, "The pink one it is!" She took the bow and tied her hair to the side. She walked downstairs to see her closest spirit guardian with his 'younger sister', Leo and Virgo. They were close as siblings and they both loved Lucy dearly. Leo was cooking and Virgo set up the table. The hazel eyes of the male looked towards his master as he said, "Princess you are done getting ready yes? Your beauty is radiating in the house…" and he rambles on of her beauty.

Virgo on the other hand stares at Loke and then looks at Lucy, "Princess will you give him a punishment?"

Lucy sighs but laughs lightly as she said, "No Virgo no punishment for anyone. Guys I have to go to school early today"

Loke and Virgo silently blinked then looked at each other and back at Lucy. Loke paled as he stuttered, "N-No way it couldn't be… Princess is there a man you are in love with?" Lucy widened her eyes and blushed as she said, "N-No! I just need to see someone!" and ran out.

Loke and Virgo was going to stop her but they stopped since they knew their master won't be so pleased with it. Loke scratched his head as he said, "She left her lunch…" and then smirked because he had a good idea. Virgo stared at Loke and said, "You're going to do something foolish yes?" Loke just laughed and both disappeared as light surrounded them.

Lucy was running as the cold breeze surrounded her. Her face was cooling down but her nose was slightly red due to the coldness. She soon stopped since her stamina in sports or physical activity wasn't that great. She looked around to see that she was most likely the only person awake on the block.

She then calmly began walking into the forest. It was still cold and she was wearing a skirt so her leg felt like it was freezing. She looked around to see if there was anyone there. She didn't see a blondie male that had texted her last night.

She sighed as she looked up in the sky and then looked down as she muttered, "I must have came too early… argh baka Lucy! Why did you come so early!"

Rustle Rustle

Suddenly she heard a rustling. She turned around to see no one. She first thought, 'Oh it must be the wind' and then turned around waiting for the man.

Rustle Rustle

She turned around again but the sound disappeared again. It started to scare her now. She began walking to the school hopefully to the chairman's office which was Laxus' hang out. She heard rustling sounds of bushes becoming louder and louder. Frightened Lucy began running for her life thinking it's a murderer, a rapist, or something like that. She ran and ran as she looked back until she bumped into someone.

"L-Luce? What's wrong"

Lucy snapped her head up to see Natsu. She looked at him with eyes that showed fear and she clenched onto him as she pointed with one hand, "T-There's someone coming after me Natsu"

Natsu looked at her and then at the forest road. He could hear rustling and he was ready to lit his hand on fire to attack the one who was chasing Lucy. However he widened his eyes as he noticed the scent of the stranger. He opened his mouth and spoke, "Happy?"

From the bushes a blue cat with wings came out as it smiled, "Aye Sir!"

Natsu sighed as he said, "Happy I told you not to scare people!" and the cat gave his usual little creeper face. Natsu looked at Lucy who hid her face in his toned chest, holding him tightly around the waist. He said, "Luce it's okay. Sorry it was my cat… Happy apologize to Lucy for scaring her"

Lucy looked up as she saw the huge eyed blue cat stare at her. It looked happy as it said, "Sorry lushy" as if it wasn't actually sorry.

She said, "I-It's okay… At least you weren't a rapist or a murderer." With a smile. Happy then smirked as he said, "Lushy liiikkkeeeeees Natsu"

Lucy raised a brow and noticed that she was sticking with Natsu like they were stuck with crazy glue. She separated from him, flustered about what had happened. She apologized to him, "S-Sorry I just freaked out…"

Natsu gave her a toothy grin as he said, "I don't mind. You can hug me anytime"

Lucy smiled with a little faint blush on her cheeks. She asked him, "Thinking about it… Why are you here so early in the morning Natsu?"

Natsu rubbed the back of his head as he said, "Well I train from 3 to when school starts so yeah"

Lucy widened her eyes amazed at how Natsu takes training so serious. If it was her she'd probably laze around. Natsu looked at her amazed expression and chuckled. He asked her, "What are you doing here so early?"

Lucy looked at him and then said, "Me? Hmmm I was…" then it hit her. She widened her eyes as she said, "Shoot! He might be here!"

Natsu raised a brow as he said, "Who are you searching for?"

Lucy looked at him and said, "Laxus texted me saying he wanted to see me early in the morning but I didn't know what time was early so I came out."

Natsu frowned thinking how Laxus texts her and he shrugged as he said, "Why does he want to see you so early in the morning?"

Lucy looked at him and said, "I honestly don't know but I guess I should go to find out" and turned around as she was going to head back into the forest. However something grabbed her by the wrist.

"Don't go"

Lucy turned around to see that Natsu grabbed her wrist. Natsu looked at her with pleading eyes for a minute or two as he muttered to himself of something. She couldn't catch exactly what he said but she got out of his grip. She looked at him and said, "Why?"

He shrugged as he said, "Do you like him?"

Lucy was flustered but wondering with the sudden question she asked, "Why does that matter to you"

He said, "Because… I'm curious?"

She sighed as she said, "Natsu I don't have time for this. I'll tell you if it's something not really important" and she jogged away back into the forest.

Natsu reached his hand out as if he was attempting to stop her but frozen in the spot he just watched her disappearing into the forest. He sighed as he rubbed the back of his neck.

He looked at Happy and sighed, "ha… What's wrong with me?" Happy just rolled his eyes and stared at him cheeky, "You liiikkkkkeeeee her"

Lucy was running towards the forest as she looked only forward, not back, not wanting to see if Natsu was chasing after her or not. She then soon saw a tall muscular figure standing there. She could recognize who it was since she saw a cloak and a familiar sound pod. She looked at him as she said, "S-Sorry Dre—I mean Laxus! I was caught up with something."

The figure turned towards her and it was indeed Laxus. He looked at her and said, "It's fine."

Lucy looked at him and asked him with a smile on her face, "So what did you want to talk about Laxus?" Laxus looked at her and then shrugged as he said, "I want you to be in my group."

Lucy widened her eyes as she said, "Your group? You mean Raijin Tribe?" He nodded. She was quite surprised because it was hard for normal people to be part of the Raijin group. They had to be quite strong in order to be in the group. She knew that only four members were in the group which was Bickslow, Freed, Evergreen, and the founder, Laxus.

She looked at him and said, "B-But why? I'm not that strong and I'm not very well known…" Laxus looked at her stammer about how she wasn't really fit for his group.

He looked at her and said, "You were on the list for smartest and manageable magician. We need a member like that. You can work for me as the secretary or something…" And thought, 'Not to mention hot' but he decided to not say the hot part.

She was surprised and honored. She smiled meekly as she said, "U-Um can I give you the answer to you by afterschool?"

He looked at her with his usual look and said, "Sure… I'll wait here afterschool" She nodded and he turned his back as he began walking into the forest again. He was disappearing into the trees and she would wonder where he would be heading.

Lucy's POV

I looked up at the sky as I said, "Unbelievable… Should I consider myself lucky?" Well my name was originally Lucky Lucy Heartfilia so I can consider myself as lucky. I walked back to school and it was still quite early. I looked ahead seeing Natsu who seemed to have waited for someone. It can't be that he was waiting for me right?

Natsu looked towards me as he waved. Should I dare to wave back? Is there anyone behind me? I looked behind me to see no one and then towards my side. No one except me… He looked like he was amused as he jogged towards me.

"You weirdo. I was waving at you Luce" he said to me with his signature toothy grin on his face. I blushed as I said, "M-Me?"

He nodded and shrugged as he asked me, "So… What did Laxus want to talk to you about"

I looked at the time and it seemed like we had nearly an hour to talk about these issues. I smiled as I said, "I'll tell you about them. First let's head to class so we won't be late." He nodded in agreement with me as he walked beside me.

When we entered the classroom I sat in my seat while Natsu grabbed Sting's empty chair and brought it to my desk. He looked at me and said, "So?'

I looked at him and said, "Well it was surprising but he asked me to—" Natsu stopped her from talking and interrupted her, "Did he ask you out?"

I widened my eyes as I shook my head, "Of course not! He asked me to be a member of the Raijin Tribe"

Natsu frowned as he asked me a bunch of questions about Laxus. I didn't understand why he asked me these questions. I looked at the hands of the clock as they seemed to be moving faster than usual. Well that's what I thought since Natsu made it seem like time could fly so fast.

I sighed, "Are you done with your questions Natsu?"

Natsu shrugged and asked, "Hey Luce…"

"Yeah Natsu?" I answered him with a questioned look.

"Well… What if I asked you out?"

I was bewildered. The infamous Natsu Dragneel… was he confessing to me? So much things had happened today and of course it had to be another shocking one. I was hesitant, was he serious or is this one of his pick-up lines.

"Luce? My ans—" I was saved by the bell when it rang when he asked for his answer. I looked at him with a meek smile on my face as I said, "H-Hey there goes the bell! I think you should get going to your class"

I could tell Natsu was annoyed and he wanted to complain for his answer but that was until he was smacked by a bag. He glared behind and I lifted my head up to see Sting.

"Pinkie! You're in my seat"

Natsu clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction but backed off and walked towards his class. I sighed in relief. I groaned, "Thanks Sting you're a lifesaver"

He raised a brow as he said, "Whatever you say weirdo"

I looked up at the ceiling as I thought to myself, 'Was Natsu serious? No way… It was just a what if question right?'

Suddenly I heard a ringing noise inside my pocket. It was my phone and when I stared at the screen it showed a notification of messages. Of course they were from yours truly, Natsu Dragneel.

I pressed preview so it didn't show that I read it. It was a short message:

"Come to the school roof after school. I want my answer"

I banged my head on the table. I could hear Sting murmur of me being a weirdo and all. I groaned as I murmured, "Laxus wanted me to meet him afterschool but now Natsu… Ughhh who do I meet?!"
