Chapter 7
"Natsu…I feel like I owe you the truth." "Yeah, you do so spill it." "Okay, well, after I ran last night, Rogue captured me and said that Sting was impressed with my powerful move at the games and wanted to know if dragon slayers could have an equally powerful move like…" "And you actually believed that load of shit?" Natsu was speaking with a sort of venom in his voice. Lucy didn't like this side to him, it scared her and all she wanted to do was crawl under the covers and cry. "Well, yes. I promised to at least meet with him this morning and then Rogue let me go. I went this morning and we talked and such; but it's not like anything happened. I didn't even know he was planning to do what he did."
Natsu just stared at her in silence wondering how anyone could be so stupid to fall for such a trick. It was obvious Sabertooth was messing with Fairy Tail out of jealousy, and they picked the perfect target. Natsu noticed Lucy had tears in her eyes and that she was suddenly against the wall with his hands on either side blocking her escape. "N-Natsu…p-please don't hurt me! I-It's not like I shared any secrets. That's all he asked, honest! Please don't hurt me Natsu!" Natsu couldn't believe his ears. Hurt her? Why would he do that? He just saved her didn't he? Now wasn't the time though, Lucy was crying which worried him more than even never finding Igneel again. "Luce…I would never hurt you. I'm sorry if I scared you." He pulled her towards his chest with his strong arms, but was careful this time to not squish her to death again. He felt terrible…to know he inflicted so much pain when she's already had such a hard day was enough to make anyone feel guilty. Although, he must admit the feel of her in his arms and her head against his chest just felt right. He hoped this moment would never end…but sadly the carriage must always turn into a pumpkin.
"Natsu, I'm (yawn) tired…" Natsu nodded and picked her up and laid her in bed once more. This time however, like most nights, he climbed into his side of the bed to sleep next to the beautiful blond. His arm wrapped protectively around her waist and pulled her into him as her increased his body temperature to keep her warm. He knew she always slept better in heat, so he was the perfect fireplace. Her scent filled his nostrils like a drug and made him feel happy and calm knowing that Sting wasn't the one who was her with her. It was him. No one else knew Lucy the way he did, and no one else was allowed to act the way he did when he's around her. It made him happy to know some things, were specifically for Natsu, and Natsu alone.
