Unspoken Rule #4: Never use sexual innuendos on Erza Scarlet.
Gray leaned back in his seat and observed the area. For the umpteenth time since she joined, the team was currently taking refuge in Lucy's modest home. For the umpteenth time since she joined, Lucy was fuming at the uninvited company.
"Seriously guys, why is it always my house? Why can't we ever visit Erza at Fairy Hills or invade Gray's or Natsu's homes. Why is it always mine?" Lucy shooed away a wandering Happy and continued with the task of drying her hair. She didn't appreciate the sudden invasion while she was in a bathrobe and trying to make herself decent.
"It's because your house is always stocked up with food, to which our team has a fetish for. I'd think that you were used to it by now." Gray half smirked as he witnessed Happy get smacked away yet again as the blue cat tried to sneak a peak of Lucy's blossoms.
"One thing I'll never get used to is having you half naked in my home with a creepy look on your face."
With that being said, Gray looked down to see what she was talking about and of course he was once again in only his boxers. "Gosh darnit! Where did I put my clothes now?"
"Could you guys keep it down? I like to eat in peace," Natu hushed the distracting scene.
Lucy glared at the dragon slayer and pointed an accusing finger at him. "If you want to eat in peace then go to your own home!"
Natsu looked at her innocently with a piece of chicken hanging out of his mouth. "Iwt's nowt my fawt you awas 'ave yummwy foooooooood."
Happy agreed with a random, "Aye."
"Hey, where is Erza? I haven't seen her since I caught you all going through my underwear drawer earlier."
Gray gave a nonchalant shrug, clothed this time. Natsu and Happy could really care less as they were stuffing their faces with everything they could get out of Lucy's fridge.
The blonde girl's question was soon answered as the missing woman from earlier appeared behind her. "Lucy, I didn't know that you were such a descriptive writer."
Upon hearing what the scarlet haired girl was inferring, she turned around without hesitation and practically screamed.
"ERZA! WHY DO YOU HAVE THAT! WHY WOULD YOU DO SUCH A THING!"
Lucy herself knew that she was overacting, if only a tiny bit, but she couldn't help it. She always made sure to update Levy on all her works but this particular story was for no other human eyes besides herself.
Erza looked shocked for a moment before kneeling down on the ground and apologizing to the stellar mage. "My apologies Lucy. I don't know what came over me to invade your privacy like that. Please just punch me."
Unlike months ago when some idiot really did punch her (coughNatsucough), Lucy just sighed and pulled her friend up to a standing position. "It's no big deal Erza, really it isn't. I blame myself for not putting it in a better hiding place."
"What's all the hubbub about?" Gray found himself next the girls and looked over their shoulders. He was smacked by, a flustered, Lucy as she pushed him away from the scene.
"It's none of your business. Now go be half naked somewhere else." Gray looked down at Lucy's statement and cursed. He managed to undress himself yet again.
"Aye," Happy randomly added, in between inhaling food with Natsu.
Suddenly a curious Natsu snatched the supposed book away from the girls. How he made it to them so quickly without them noticing, no one will know. "If Luce wrote it, I bet it's good stuff!" He energetically flipped through the pages, to the two girls' horror, but his features suddenly changed to that of a confused expression.
"I don't get it…."
"That's because you're too young for this stuff. Just give me the book back, Natsu!" Lucy rapidly took her works away from the prying boy and ran into her room, trying to find an area where her team will hopefully not think of going through.
"I don't see what the big deal was," Natsu pouted with his arms crossed.
"The point is that it's something that we have no right to look through, and it's my fault for ever taking it in the first place," Erza explained to the child-like fire user.
"I think I know what was so surprising in Lucy's novel," Happy implied with a naughty face on his blue face.
"And Lucy says I'm the creep. Not likely when the winged cat is here," Gray remarked as he looked at the flying creature.
"Gray that's mean!" Happy made a hurt expression and attacked the ice mage with plenty of counters.
All seemed fine once Lucy came back and the team resumed with what they'd usually do. Natsu and Happy went back to stuffing their faces with the occasional fights between Gray and Natsu. Lucy and Erza watched television while Gray was on a never ending journey for his clothes.
It came close to night and eventually the company thinned. Happy was first to leave, saying that there was a new episode of 'Fish Quest' that he recorded. Gray left a few minutes after, saying that there was only so much time he could spend with a flame brain.
That just left Natsu, Lucy and Erza. Lucy looked like she was getting tired and that was enough for her two friends to get ready to leave the blonde to her sleep.
Before they left, however, Natsu began to look puzzled again. His puzzlement seemed to only increase once the two childhood friends left Lucy's house. Even in the dark, Erza could tell that Natsu was in deep thought, mainly because he was unusually quite.
"Is there something troubling you, Natsu?"
Natsu looked up at Erza and gave a sheepish smile. "Well there was actually something I was wondering about."
Erza turned to him completely and stopped walking. "What is it? Maybe I can help you."
Natsu stopped walking as well and nodded. "Lucy's book….there was something in there that confused me." By now Erza had a startled look placed on her face. "There was a sentence in there….saying something…uh…actually never mind, forget it."
The scarlet haired beauty sighed a sigh of relief, happy that she wouldn't have to explain anything that might interfere with Natsu's strange innocence.
The following day recycled most of the events that happened previously. Lucy was met with her shameless team, invading every little part in her house. They all did their separate things and left sooner rather than later.
Once again, Erza and Natsu found themselves walking together in the night. It was nice enough. Natsu went on and on about who knows what and Erza placed in her opinions every so often. If anything, it was the best that they've gotten along for quite awhile. It was nice and refreshing to just be able to talk about the useless things in life together.
Leave it to Natsu to break that kind of sweet atmosphere.
"Hey Erza, maybe some time we could try amomaxia sometime. Your mammaquatia makes me wonder how good you'd be. Hmmm, or maybe before we do that, we should try typhlobasia first."
At first Erza didn't know where Natsu acquired that sort of vocabulary and why. She didn't care for an explanation either. All she could do was blush and be grateful that it was dark so that her blush was hidden.
"So how about it? I bet you'd bring me loads of pleasure. If all works out, maybe we could invite Lucy and Gray along too. And of course Happy can join in on the fun as well." Natsu gave Erza a big smile.
Erza, on the other hand, wasn't smiling at all. In fact, she really didn't know what to think. Being Erza Scarlet, she did the one thing that came into her mind first.
"W-wait Erza! What are you doing?"
Erza brought her fist down upon the poor dragon slayer until he was bloodied and about ready to cry.
"NEVER TALK TO ME AGAIN YOU PERVERT!" Erza gave him once last final blow to his baby makers and stalked off, visibly pissed.
"B-but…" Natsu lay on the ground unable to move at all.
He was never asking Macao for word definitions again.
