Lucy's POV
Almost instantaneously, every hand shot up. I should have expected this kind of response.
"Levy?" I asked. She seemed hesitant but curious, "You said the celestial key would be able to intertwine Natsu's magic because of your love. How strong does that love have to be in order to fuse the magic at such a wide distance?"
Wendy and Carla looked curious as well. This made me blush since this would be the first time I'm admitting my true feelings to anyone. "At this distance, true love or soul mates. I love Natsu and know it's not a passing crush because of this," I said while removing the black cuff I have been wearing that was similar to Natsu's.
Under the cuff was an imprint of a red dragon curled around. When I revealed the mark, the girls gasped. "Lu-chan!" "Lucy-san" "Oh, my" the last which came from Carla. I ran my fingers over the mark on my left wrist. "So this is a mate's mark." Again I was interrupted by everyone.
Wendy's eyes widened, "Natsu-san gave you a mate's mark?! So that means..." she trailed off blushing the color of Erza's hair. "Tch, such an inappropriate topic. But still..." Carla said looking at me expectedly while sipping a cup of tea that magically appeared.
Levy looked from me to the mark to Wendy and to Carla. "Lu? What's a mate's mark and why did Carla say it was an inappropriate topic?" she asked curiously.
I smiled thinking about what the mark did mean. "As you know, dragon slayers take on dragon traits. One of many happens to be mating rituals. When a dragon meets their mate, they are instinctively bound to each other. Once the two recognize and accept the union, the dragon claims his or her mate intimately. After the union, the dragon marks their mate in their representation. Since Natsu is a fire dragon slayer, my mark is red. My imprint also feels warm to the touch..." I kind of trailed off mesmerized by my mark, smiling.
"Um Lu-san, I understand why the dragon is red, but why is its eye a beautiful blue color?" Wendy asked unsurely.
Blue? I don't remember seeing it. I brought my wrist closer in observance. Huh, the eye was blue. "I'm not sure actually, but I do agree that it is a beautiful shade of blue. It's seems familiar though...don't you think?" I asked them holding out my wrist to let them see.
We stared at the mark trying to place it. It was Carla who broke us out of our concentration. "Does this color really not ring any bells?" she asked almost condescendingly. We looked at her confused and shook our heads. Carla turned to look out the window but there was a faint blush on her cheeks. She cleared her throat but still spoke softly, "That blue eye is the same color as Happy's fur, not that I pay attention or anything."
Levy, Wendy, and I looked shocked. We all looked back to the mark and noticed she was right. "So you're telling me, that this mated mark is not only representing me and Natsu, but also that fur ball Happy?!"
"Aye sir!" what the?!
