I do not own Fairy Tail.

Natsu and Lucy had returned to her apartment together and had started to cook dinner. Since she had "slept" most of the day, aka spent time in a different reality, Natsu decided they should stay up playing board games. Natsu attempted to pressure Lucy into reading him her book, but she repeatedly declined his begging. Since he learned of Lucy's novel, Natsu had be curious about the contents of her book. A part of him hoped that she secretly wrote about all of their adventures together, like how he kept all the receipts from restaurants they shared meals out. It may have been a silly habit of his, but he liked remembering all the food they ate together.

They played twister for a couple of hours, neither of them willing to lose, and both of them extremely competitive. Twister would put them in awkward positions, making Lucy blush, while Natsu takes the opportunity to fart in her face to win the upper hand. After that experience, Lucy vowed to never play twister with Natsu again.

They both took showers, separately, and laid in bed together. Natsu was worried about Lucy because she had been acting different lately, and Lucy was distracted by her thoughts to the extent of ignoring Natsu. She had a plan to test out her next wish.

Lucy would watch for Natsu to fall asleep, and when she was sure he had fallen into a deep slumber, she pulled her lacrima bracelet in front of her face. Lucy stared into the swirling lacrima gem as she wished for a world where Acnologia had been defeated 400 years ago.

Lucy opened her eyes to a world of fire, screaming, and chaos. She was standing at the top of a mountain and looking down on what seemed like an enormous battle between dragons. Lucy recognized a few of the dragons based on the dragon slayer's that she had met. They were all fighting against Acnologia.

On the left side of the battle were a hoard of dragons, while the right side of the battle had Acnologia. She was sure her eye drums would shatter from the sound of the roars and the crushing "pops" that reverberated all around her every time the dragons would collide. Dragon blood was everywhere and in the middle of the battle she thought she saw a child-sized Natsu.

When she focused on watching Acnologia, Lucy could see Zeref attacking him. Zeref was here! This must be around the time that he became immortal, Lucy thought. The earth was shaking around Zeref as he launched spells at Acnologia. Before a big blow hit Zeref, his magic aimed right at a child with pink hair. The action made an orb encompass the child and Lucy watched as it floated away into the distance.

Zeref was hit by Acnologia hard, he was barely standing from the impact of the attack. He had just managed to evade the deathly bite of Acnologia. Acnologia's teeth might be the only thing strong enough to break through Zeref's immortal body, but he was fighting anyways.

Lucy watched in shock as she saw Zeref wave Igneel away to follow the child-like orb, and at the same time he started spinning in the air, as if he was doing acrobats. Zeref forced his magic from his arms and the ground shook as he beat Acnologia mercilessly.

The other dragons looked too exhausted to partake in the fight, since they had been fighting Acnologia before Zeref got there. The two continued their battle while the earth around them died, black waves coming from the two. The dragons started to fly away, afraid of the darkness coming from Zeref's body. In a final blow from Acnologia, Zeref exploded, and his magic of death took over Acnologia's body. The final magic of Zeref overpowered Acnologia's own magic which turned it against him. Acnologia's magic drained out of him as he died from Zeref's remains.

When the darkness ceased to spread, Lucy looked down at where the battle had just been, and the field was empty. Ashes lay across the land as far as she could see, only the sky was free from the resounding impact of Zeref's death. She stared in shock at the past her wish had changed and wondered how it changed her future.

She stared into the Lacrima with so many questions, hoping it would give her an answer, and it did. Lucy could hear the voice of the light, that had given her the lacrima, speak to her again. In the world this wish creates, Natsu Dragneel was encased in an immortal egg before Zeref could turn him into E.N.D. Zeref put him in the egg in hopes of saving his life, but because he could not turn him into one of his book of demon's, Natsu will never be able to awaken again.

As Lucy stared in shock at the empty world in front of her, the light continued explaining. Without the demons of Zeref, and without Acnologia, there was no stopping the other dragons. The dragons that got away from the blast of Zeref in time, were so enraged at humans that they would kill any human they came across. Since Acnologia had once been human, all dragons decided to never allow a dragon slayer to become a dragon again.

The repercussions of that prevented many dragon slayers from obtaining their powers, and the art was lost to the world. The humans that did survive the slaughter from dragons, would later be destroyed by many the many evil mages who followed. The word spread through the world that Zeref had been destroyed, and the fear (of Zeref) that had previously prevented mages from taking too much power was gone. It seems evil replaces evil, so you must choose the lesser one.

In addition to the terrors that inhabited the world form the loss of Acnologia and Zeref, Fairy Tail would never come to exist. Mavis Mavillion was never able to learn magic from Zeref, and because of that she never created Fairy Tail. The light finished by telling Lucy he could not show her to a future beyond her comprehension.

Lucy sighed, when she was first transported here to this reality, she thought losing both Acnologia and Zeref would be a good thing. But a world without Natsu, without Fairy Tail, and humanity was too terrible for her to accept. There was not an enemy alive worth destroying if it caused this amount of destruction to Fiore.

While looking back into the Lacrima, Lucy thanked the light for showing her this past and explaining the future it would invoke, and the world went black.

Opening her eyes, Lucy blinked rapidly before realizing she was in her bed at home. She looked to her left and smiled at a sleeping Natsu. As Lucy stared at her ceiling, she started to feel stressed about this wish. It was turning out to be more complicated than she imagined. She might have to set her sights even lower in order to make a wish with a safe and happy future. Since traveling between realities was surprisingly exhausting, Lucy closed her eyes and let sleep take over her body.

Natsu was wiggling under the covers trying to get comfortable, when he accidentally kicked something soft and warm with his knee. He opened his eyes and saw Lucy sleeping on his arm. He slept so hard that he forgot Lucy let him sleep there again! Natsu was excited by having Lucy so close to him, so he pulled her in closer while wrapping his arms around her. He felt more protective of her than anything. It was as if she was his treasure, and more than just a partner, more than Nakama.

Natsu was unfamiliar with these types of feelings, and he didn't really understand them, so he generally just ignored them. But today, he decided to let the feelings sink into his heart. He felt a warmth spread over him and he smiled at his Lucy. He would do anything for her. Natsu bent his head down to kiss her forehead.

Lucy had started to wake when she felt Natsu knee her thighs. It hurt but she was too sleepy to move. After Natsu pulled her in for a hug, she felt her heart beat quicken and felt confused. When she opened her eyes his face was leaning in towards hers. She watched in shock as he kissed her forehead, and she rapidly closed her eyes to pretend she was still asleep.

A minute later, Natsu climbed over Lucy and lumbered into the bathroom. She could hear the water start and was surprised when she realized Natsu was bathing on his own free will! He must finally be maturing! Lucy thought. It made her so happy, that Lucy thought she should give him a reward.

Lucy got out of bed, slipped on a robe and slippers, and hurried down the stairs to the kitchen. She slowly began to cook bacon, eggs, and toast while she prepared coffee. Lucy stretched over the stove and hummed to herself. Waking up next to Natsu always put her in a good mood, but she would never admit that to him because he would never leave if she told him.

As she thought about the wishes she had experience, Lucy decided it was time to get ideas from her friends. She wouldn't have to tell them that she had a wish available to her. She could just ask them what they would wish for, if they could. It might even be fun to learn a little more about her Nakama! She was exceptionally curious as to what Levy would wish for, if she could wish for anything. Levy was so smart, that Lucy figured she would have a brilliant wish. However, Lucy also hoped Levy would wish for Gajeel's affection. Hehe.

That was settled then, Lucy would ask her guild mates, what they would wish for, today! Lucy set all the food out on the table, while she filled some glasses with orange juice. She added some condiments to the table for the toast, and got a cup of coffee when she heard Natsu shuffle down the stairs.

Natsu was so excited to smell bacon, and he knew it was because he showered, since Lucy usually kicked him out without breakfast. So, he decided he would shower more often if it meant Lucy would feed him! He smiled at her as he inhaled the dozen eggs she had placed in front of him. Lucy knew the size of his appetite, and he loved that.

They walked side by side to the guild, laughing about how annoyed Carla would be at Happy staying there for awhile. They really hoped he could successfully woo her this week. Lucy even contemplated helping the cat by giving him advice on romance. As they walked through the guild doors she could see happy in the distance buying fish and putting a ribbon on it. Sigh, he would never learn that girls like presents other than fish too.

Author's note: I will be posting about the wishes her Nakama make soon. Please review if you like it:) It makes me happy to know someone is reading! (I'm new to writing fanfic).
