Here's the latest chapter, everyone! Hope you'll like it!


"I'm tired~" Lucy complained.

"Good thing we finished our quest early." Natsu said.

"I know," Lucy said. "I'm worn out."

Lucy and Natsu just sat on the bench, worn out.

"I'm going home." Lucy said.

"I'll come with you," Natsu said.

"No." Lucy said straightly.

"Don't leave me~" Natsu cried.

Lucy stood up and said her goodbyes to everyone and left the guild.

XxX

When Lucy reached her house, she was surprised to see Natsu sitting on her porch.

"What are you doing here?" Lucy said.

"I was about to go in your house through the window but the window was locked." Natsu said.

"Serves you right!" Lucy stuck her tongue out.

Lucy opened the door and went in. Natsu also went in.

"Don't tell me you'll sleep over again tonight." Lucy said.

Natsu smirked.

"Why do you love my house?" Lucy said.

Natsu just giggled.

"You're so childish." Lucy said.

Natsu just smiled at her.

"I'll take a bath," she said. "And I won't take it with you."

"Eh?" Natsu cried. "Why?"

"I don't want to," Lucy said.

"But we took a bath together yesterday." Natsu said.

"Well, today, I don't want for us to take a bath." Lucy said while browsing through her cabinet. "Get it?"

"No~" Natsu cried.

Lucy stood up, holding her clothes and towels, saying, "I WON'T TAKE A BATH WITH YOU." She went into the bathroom and closed the door.

Natsu, you're such an idiot. Lucy said to herself.

Lucy was in the middle of her bath when the door opened and Natsu barged in the bathroom and joined Lucy.

"Natsu!" Lucy shouted and covered her body with her hands. "Are you and idiot? I'm naked here!"

Natsu just laughed.

Lucy checked if Natsu has his clothes on, good thing he has his shorts on.

"Natsu, why did you join me? I'm all naked here, you know." Lucy said, while blushing.

"I want to take a bath also~" Natsu cried.

"You can take a bath after I take a bath!" Lucy shouted.

"Lucy~" Natsu cried.

"That won't work on me, Natsu." Lucy said. "Now, get out!"

"I don't wanna~" Natsu cried.

"Oh, please, stop being a cry baby. You're already a teenager. No, you're already a young adult so stop acting like a little lost baby." Lucy said.

"But, Lucy," Natsu said in a deep voice. "Why did you think I came here inside the bathroom? Besides, you told me to 'act like a young adult'. So, I came here to act like a young adult. What do young adults do in the bath, anyway?" Natsu looked at her in the eyes. "You know what I mean, right?"

Natsu started to crawl towards Lucy, who was at the same time trembling and trying to move backwards.

"N-Natsu! Stop this!" Lucy said.

"No." Natsu said straightly and having an evil grin on his face.

"S-stop being a pervert, N-Natsu!" Lucy said. Then, she reached the wall, she was cornered now.

"You know, I really love what young adults do in the bath." Natsu grinned at her. "And I know that you'll love them, too."

"N-Natsu! Stop this! Don't be a pervert!" Lucy cried, while Natsu was getting closer to her.

"I'm not a pervert." Natsu grinned. "And I . . . won't . . . stop." Lucy just closed her eyes and prayed.

"Hey, Lucy, turn around." Natsu ordered.

Afraid that Natsu might do something worse to her; she turned around, just like Natsu ordered.

"Be prepared, Lucy." Natsu said.

I'm calling all the angels and saints, please, bring Natsu back to reality. I'm so sorry if I told him to act like a young adult. I'm so sorry. Lucy cried inside.

"Here I go!" Natsu said.

Lucy closed her eyes tightly.

Then, the strangest feeling came – something was on her back, something . . . soft.

"Eh?" Lucy looked back and saw that Natsu was scrubbing her back while having moes and having a good aura.

"So, Lucy, how does it feel when I scrub your back? Feels good, right?" Natsu asked happily.

Lucy let out a sigh of relief, and let the tense move out of her body.

"Y-yes," Lucy said. "It feels nice."

"I told you that you'll love what young adults do in the bath!"

"Seriously, do young adults scrub each other's back when they're taking a bath? Don't they do something else like, you know . . . that?" Lucy asked, confused.

"Well, all I know is that when you're taking a bath with someone, you should scrub their back." Natsu said. "By the way, what does 'that' means?"

"Oh, nothing, just some . . . childish stuff." Lucy sweat dropped.

Seriously? 'Childish stuff'? Do kids nowadays do that? Lucy scolded herself.

"Hey, scrub my back later, okay?" Natsu smiled at her.

"O-okay," Lucy once again let out a sigh of relief.

"Why are you sighing?" Natsu asked.

"Nothing," Lucy smiled. "Hey, turn around; I'll scrub your back."

"Okay~" Natsu turned and Lucy did her thing.
