NATSU'S POV
Lucy and i walked away from the overly obsessed girl, i was really annoyed by the fact that she was all over Lucy, i just wanted to kick her ass...but i knew i couldn't do that. After a while of being together unbothered everything was going really well! We went on some tiny rides together, even though i always ended up getting motion sickness! But it was worth it, as long as i saw a smile on Lucy's face i was happy. We walked over to the mini games and decided to play a few of the games. The first game we walked up to was a apple bobbing game, i volunteered to play for Lucy.
1. Because she kept complaining that she didn't want to get her hair wet.
2. I was good at swooping food.
3. Every other guy was playing for their girl.
4. Gray and Gajeel were competing too.
And finally..
5. Lucy really wanted this big teddy bear they had for a prize and i wanted more than anything to get her what made her happy.
As soon as i stepped up i gave Gray and Gajeel a dirty look, they of course returned it. "Good luck Salamander..gihi.." Gajeel said ending with a smirk. "Trust me Iron-face..you're gonna need all the luck! Because i am definitely not losing this one!" i yelled out. "Pffft!That's the stupidest comment you've made all day!" Gray then yelled out after my comment. I ignored it, i was confident i was going to win this. Before they blew the whistle to let us know to start, i looked over at Lucy who was jumping and yelling my name, she was cheering me on and this only gave me the strength to win this 100%. Once i looked back to the bucket of waters filled with apples, i took a deep breath before the guy blew the whistle. I shoved my head into the water and started filling my mouth with apples. Not only when Gray reached over and froze my bucket of water with my head still in. My head was stuck under ice! At this point i got furious with Gray pulling out these pranks. Before i knew it i had melted all the water away, i reached over to Gray who had a few apples left and i made his water boil. "HAHAH!" i bursted out laughing, "AAGGHH!" Gray pulled his head out full speed. "AGghhhh! SHIT!" he yelled out as he started running around in circles and Juvia ran behind him. I soon remembered i still had apples in my bucket but not many since i burned some of them to ashes. Opps. i looked over at Gajeel who was sitting in a chair eating each and every apple calmly. I continued swooping every apple into my mouth. When i finally came to an end. I yelled out. "Finished!" but another voice accompanied my yelling. I turned to see who it was. It was the chick from a while ago. OH HELL NO. She gave me a dirty look. "I obviously finished first!" she said to the guy running the game. "That's Bullshit, i finished first!" i said as i crossed my arms. "okay..you both can have a prize.." he sighed. "okay, sounds fair" all i wanted to do was get away from this perverted girl. I took the big prize, it was a big teddy bear that was about Lucy's height. I walked over to her. "Here you go lucy!" i said with a big smile, but when i looked at her she already had a huge teddy bear all up her. What the hell!?. i set the bear down and asked her calmly. "Lucy...who gave you that!?" she looked at me and opened her mouth "uhhh..you know the girl from earlier today.." of course! I was sick of her. "Oh..well i guess i'll just give this to someone else" i picked up the bear "NONO!" she yelled out as she took the bear away from me rapidly. I just smiled. "But..what am i gonna do about the other bear?.." she said quietly. "I'll get rid of it!" i walked towards the bear and with one touch i burned it. "There ya go!" again i said with a smile. It was late and i could tell Lucy was tired. We were walking home, and it was pretty chilly i wrapped my arm around Lucy to warm her up. We talked until we got to her house, she grabbed her keys to open the door. "Lucy..those are your gate keys.." i tried to hold back a laugh. "Ahh..hehe..sorry..i just feel a little funny right now.." she said with a yawn. I found it unusual but i just continued the night without worries.
In the morning i took a shower while Lucy made breakfast, when i got out i sat at the table waiting. "Natsu..put some clothes on." she said without turning around, "but i like being naked!" i said playfully. "Well i don't want to see your man parts, so please." she said as she served my food on a plate and blushing. "Haha! Okay Lucy!" i left to get dressed and shortly came back to enjoy breakfast with the person i love most. After breakfast we headed to guild, as we walked in people were doing the usual. Drinking, eating, fighting, dancing..but something was different, maybe it was just a little detail..but it seemed big, i looked around and spotted someone new. She was talking to Lucy, but Lucy had an uncomfortable face. Oh HeLl nO. it was the same chick from last night, i walked over beside Lucy and hugged her extra tightly. "What the fuck are you doing here!?" i yelled out. "Now Now Natsu calm down..Raven is new to this guild and we must respect her as family.." Makarov said as he came behind her. "WHATTTTT!" i yelled out really loud that even the whole guild became quiet. She was smiling brightly. "Now..Lucy could you perhaps accompany Raven to her first job?" Gramps asked Lucy nicely. "Umm..well actually i was planning on going on a job with-" Lucy was saying before she was interrupted. "Thanks!" Raven took Lucy by the hand and dragged her out towards the guild door. "Lucy!" i yelled out again and ran behind them before Gramps hammered me to the ground.
LUCY'S POV
This was by far the worst day ever, i was assigned to escort Raven on her job and alone! And she was always so close to me, always hugging my arm or holding my hand. I was so uncomfortable. At this point i needed Natsu so bad. As we walked to the train i heard whispers from people around us, this only bothered me even more. On the train she sat next to me, i only looked out the window trying to ignore the fact of people talking about me and Raven. "Hey Lucy!" she said. "Mhm" i responded back, still looking out the window. "What are you and Natsu?" she asked. "Well..we're a couple.." i said with a smile. "Oh..like a couple of friends..right!?" she asked again. "No!" i chuckled "well yea..actually we're really good friends..He's my best friend who i love with all my heart..but we are more than friends now, we are lovers..ya know!?" by then i had turned to her. "Ohhh...so you guys just fuck around!?" i smacked my forehead. "No..ugh he's my boyfriend..does that help you out?" i was praying that she would finally get it. "Aye..that makes sense.." Finally.
We got to our destination and looked for the hotel we were suppose to stay at for the night. Once we found the hotel, i took a seat at the couches they had at in the main room while Raven requested a room. After a while she came up to me "alright! I got us a room." i grabbed my bag and stood up and followed her. "Okay..here it is!" she said while opening the door. "Nice..so where's my room!?.." i said. "You are looking right at it" she said with a smile. I was afraid she was going to say that. "Umm..there is only one bed though" i scratched my head. "Well guess we have to sleep together~.." she smirked at me. Sigh. "alright…" i started unpacking.
NATSU'S POV
I was laying on Lucy's bed looking up at the ceiling. "Gosh...i miss her.." i said quietly to myself. "Miss who!?" Happy came flying through the room. "Lucy...she left on a job with..Raven" i said her name with annoyance. "Aww..it's okay Natsu! I'm sure Lucy will come back really quick from her job!" Happy said while flying in circles. "What makes you so sure?" i asked, now sitting up. "She's obviously annoyed and uncomfortable with Raven..she would want to come back as quick as possible to avoid being around her." Happy was now hovering in front of me. "And i bet she misses you as much as you miss her!" He said with a wink. "Yea i guess you're right! Plus the job they went on should take only about 1-2 days..no biggie!" my spirits now lifting up. "There's the confident Natsu Dragneel i know!"
The next morning i woke up, without Lucy to wake up to i felt a bit depressed. It wasn't a special morning like any other. I made myself breakfast, but only ended up burning the kitchen. Luckily i could suck the flames in so no damage was done. Thank god. After i finished eating my burnt eggs and bacon. I left to the guild, once i was there i took a seat next to Lucy's usual seat. "What's wrong Natsu?" i heard but i was too lost in thought that i didn't respond back " Natsu?!" i heard again but this time i snapped out of my thoughts "huh!?" i looked up to see Mira. she laughed a bit "daydreaming?" she smiled while washing the dishes. "Well..yea..just thinking about Lucy, it's pretty lonely around here without her." i sinked my head onto the table. "Don't worry she should be back soon..for now on how about you go on a job!?" she said. "No..it wouldn't be a fun without Lucy. i'd much rather wait than go on a job on myself" i answered back. "Well okay..your call" Mira then turned around taking orders from her comrades.
I continued my day by walking around town, looking at things Lucy might like or just a few things for home. I found myself back at my place and an idea popped in my head. I wanted to do a few changes, a big change. My house was pretty big for Lucy, Happy, and i to live in. I wanted to move in with her, and continue my life alongside her. I started off by cleaning inside, i knew that i didn't want Lucy to clean up my mess all the time. Once i finished i went outside and cleaned out until it was shiny clean, you could even see stars appearing around it. Perfect. I then made more space around inside the house to fit another closet for Lucy's clothing.
LUCY'S POV ~later that night
I decided to take a warm shower, this day was definitely different than any other job with Natsu. I had to wake up early and help Raven complete her job successfully, as i washed my hair i felt someone holding me. Almost as if Natsu had followed me all the way over here. I slowly turned around with a smile..but soon that smile faded and i became embarrassed as hell, IT WAS RAVEN HOLDING ON TO ME! Her hands were wrapped around my hips and she was completely naked too. "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE!?" i yelled out at her. "I just wanted to shower before you finished all the hot water." "Umm..how exactly do you know i finish all the hot water?!" slowly becoming creeped out. "Oh!..i watch your every move!" she smiled. Okay, now i'm creeped out! "Uhh.." my face becoming really red. "please ..don't do that.." i backed away from her as i reached out for my towel, stepping out of the shower. "Where are you going!?" she reached out for me and grabbed my wrist. "I'm tired! Goodnight!" i said.
I wanted to go home, i missed the guild, i missed my friends, i missed the jobs we went on together, the adventures, i missed..Natsu. I walked out on the porch of the hotel, i climbed up to the roof of the hotel, laying on the cold hard roof, staring at the dark blue sky mixed with black and purple. Stars that made the night bright. I closed my eyes and imagined myself running alongside Natsu, just like the yellow field, with smiles in our faces. I couldn't be happier, i loved him so much and he loved me back.
... but who knew that soon enough, that would change...
