After awhile he broke the silence.
"Morning Lucy..." He said so quietly she almost didn't hear him.
"Good Morning..." She simply replied, slightly blushing.
He stretched his arms up above his head, but not realizing it, his wings stuck strait out.
She sat there in awe, staring at his wings.
"Umm... Lucy?"
"Oh! I'm sorry its just... that your wings... there so big."
"Hmm..?" He turned to look at the pair of giant wings. "Ya... they are."
"What does it feel like..?"
"Huh?"
"I mean having wings and horns? What does it feel like?" She tilted her head to the side curiously.
"Well the wings sure are itchy... every since I woke up they've been that way. And the horns... well, I kinda like them." He said proudly.
She smiled to herself before reaching up to pet his horn, just like last night.
Like it was a instinct, he tilted his head downward, closed his eyes, and began to make a purring noise.
"Teehee." She giggled at how he was acting.
"Luucy~, stop it..." He wined, not wanting to be picked on.
"Aww, but you're so funny."
"You're cruel." He stated with a playful tone in his voice.
She giggled again, but continued to stroke his horn. She looked at his face, his eyes were closed and he had a smile on his face. She had a smile on her face as well, but her smile was because of his. She closed her eyes, relaxed, she just continued to stroke his horn not saying anything, just enjoying the moment.
He opened one eye, he noticed her eyes were closed and she had a small smile on her face. An idea sparked onto his head. He sat up strait and opened his other eye so that both his eyes were open.
She could tell he sat up because he was now taller, she opened her eyes only to him smirking with almost a... evil glint in his eyes.
"Umm...Natsu- Eeep!"
He had grabbed her and put her in his lap, then wrapped his arms around her.
"..."
"...?!"
It became dark... He had wrapped the pair of giant dark wings around them both.
She looked at his wings, they were so big... big enough to wrap around both of them easily. At first she felt awkward, but then the awkwardness faded into comfort and warmth. She soon fell asleep in his embrace.
Lucy slowly opened her eyes to darkness. So she was still in his wings. She couldn't move, though, because he was holding her tightly. "N-natsu," She said, hoping that he'd wake up. But... to no avail. "Natsu!" She exclaimed, a little louder than before. She tried scooting forward, but each time she tried to wriggle out of his grasp, he'd just tighten his embrace.
Soon an idea popped into her head. "LALALALALALLALALALALALAAAA~!" She sang loudly.
Natsu, who secretly had been awake, jumped at the loud, unpleasant
noise. "Gah- Luuuuuuce!" He wphined.
"Let me go... or I will sing again."
"ANYTHING BUT THAT!" He unwrapped his arms and wings. She stood up, secretly missing his warmth.
"You don't like my singing?" She teased.
"W-well, Not when you sing like that, Lucy..."
"Whatever. Anyway, what should we do today?"
"Let's go fishing!"
"We have to stay inside, baka."
"Awww, that's not nice to say, Luce..!
"How about I make cookies?"
Natsu thought he was dreaming, "Am I dreaming?"
Lucy giggled, "No, Natsu. Now come help me make cookies.
They walked into the kitchen. "Get me eggs, milk, butter, flour, sugar, vanilla, and chocolate chips."
Natsu walked over and got the ingredients, bringing them to her.
Lucy hummed a familiar tune while he stood and watched as she mixed the ingredients. "Hurry, Lucy! I'm hungryy!" He whined.
Lucy ignored him.
"Lucy."
"..."
"Lucy?"
"..."
"Lucy!"
"What?!" She snapped.
"...Are you almost done?"
"Yes, Natsu. I just have to put them in the oven." She grabbed the plate of doughy balls. Then, she put them in the oven.
"They'll be done in fifteen."
Natsu smiled happily at her. Lucy felt a throb in her chest but chose to ignore it.
DING! DING! DING!
The cookies were finally done.
"Oi, Natsu, where are your oven mits?"
He walked over to her, and reached into the oven, grabbing the the tray of cookies and taking them out with his bare hands.
"Oh, nevermind.. I guess you don't need them.."
"You forgot that fire doesn't harm me, Luce." he chuckled.
She pouted. "Don't laugh at me."
He laughed some more, much to her anger. "I-I'm sorry, Lucy, you're just so cute!"
"C-c-cute!?" She stuttered, her face becoming very, very hot.
Realizing what he had just said, he snapped his mouth shut, his own face reddening as well. He pulled his scarf up over his nose, hiding his face.
"Sorry..." He mumbled.
"N-no big deal, I don't mind..."
He looked away. This feeling in his chest... what was happening to him? He set the cookies down and then smiled slightly at her. Her face, it was so... pink, and cute. he just wanted to hug her, or something. What is this?
He grabbed a cookie and popped it into his mouth. It was so yummy! He usually didn't care for sweets, but this? This was one of the best things he'd ever tasted in his life.
Lucy stared dreamily at Natsu's adorable face. Even though he had wings, claws and horns, he was definitely the same old Natsu. And she couldn't' help but think that he was absolutely the single most greatest looking creature on earth- wait, what?!
Realizing what she was thinking about, she blushed fiercely and looked away from him.
After swallowing, Natsu sighed, "Lucy, that was so good! Where'd you learn the cook like that?"
Lucy's smile faded, and immediately she stared at the floor, her eyes watering, "M-my mother..."
Natsu mentally slapped himself. Why did he have to be such a heartless jerk when he was around Lucy? "I-I'm sorry, Lucy! I shouldn't have brought it up. I'm the worst..."
Lucy looked up at him as a single tear flew down her right cheek. He had a regretful look in his dark eyes. "It's okay, Natsu." She said, but Natsu knew she wasn't. He could tell by the salty waterfalls coming from her chocolate brown orbs.
He wrapped his arms around her gently as she buried her face into the crook of his neck. Why was she so sensitive around him? Lucy wished that she could be the indepenent girl that she was when she was with everyone else, but, with him, she felt as though she couldn't control the tears.
She embraced her big ball of comfort a.k.a Natsu. Really, all she felt when she was around him was comfort... And maybe a bit of attraction-BAD LUCY!
She blushed again at her thoughts-again. Why did she keep thinking about such embarrassing things? As much as she wanted to deny it, deep down, she knew she felt something for him. Thinking about this made her heart race. She hoped he didn't notice!
Natsu blushed as he felt Lucy's heartbeat against his own chest quicken. His did too, along with hers. Oh no, not this love crap again! He wasn't ready for this!
He pulled back, and offered Lucy a heart-wrenching grin. He then grabbed another cookie. "Say ah, Luce." He rasped out.
Lucy blushed at his new tone. She felt herself blushing profusely as she reluctantly opened her mouth.
Natsu toothily smirked as he placed the cookie into her mouth. She closed it and chewed, before a happy smile came across her face.
"Wow, I didn't know I could cook so well," Lucy remarked as she walked over to the couch and sat down on it. Natsu followed and sat beside her, their thighs touching, making her blush for some weird reason.
"Lucy?"
"Hm?"
"...Can we watch How to Train Your Dragon again?"
"We just watched that! Can't you give it a rest?"
"What else can we watch that's actually good?"
"Oh, I don't know," Lucy said as she scanned the list of movies that they could watch, "How about this?" She smirked teasingly, holding up his biggest fear.
Natsu choked on his own saliva, "Not that! Please!"
Lucy giggled. The movie she was suggesting was Barbie and the Diamond Castle.
"Say, why do you even have this, Natsu?"
Natsu blushed, scratching his cheek awkwardly. "I-I had to babysit this little girl for a job request."
Lucy nodded at him before looking some more.
d"Oh, how bout that, Luce!" Natsu exclaimed, pointing at a movie called Silent Hill.
"Uh, I don't know about that..."
"Oh come on Luce. Are you too scared?"
Lucy scowled, blushing yet again, "O-o-of course n-not!"
"Then let's watch it."
"F-fine!"
And so the movie began, and Lucy was shaking head to toe from the very beginning.
"Ah!" She gasped as a terrifying scene came on. She clung to Natsu's arm for dear life. Natsu only chuckled. "It's okay, Lucy."
And they kept on watching, Lucy being silent until pyramid-head ripped off the girl's skin.
Lucy shriek in horror, wrapping her arms completely around his torso and burying her face into his shoulder.
Dang it! Why did he have to make her watch this!He felt so bad! He wrapped an arm around her shoulders, hoping to comfort her. "Should I turn it off?"
"N-no..." Lucy said.
Soon after, the movie ended, leaving Lucy in tears. They watched several more movies until it became late and they both dozed off. _
XOXOXOXOXO
Natsu awoke to darkness. What was this? He stood up and walked around, only to find nothing but an endless room.
"Hello!?" He called, his voice echoing, "Is anyone here?"
Silence.
He continued to search, but was interrupted by a man suddenly appearing in front of him. The man had black eyes, and black hair with a tuft sticking up on top.
"Hello, Natsu. Or should I say Etherious Natsu Dragneel. I am Zeref, your creator."
"W-wha..."
"You must know that-"
"NATSU!" He heard a voice. It was undoubtedly Lucy's. "NATSU!" _
XOXOXOXOXO
Natsu opened his eyes to a bright light. He was on the couch, and Lucy was next to him, shaking his shoulders.
"I thought you'd never wake up..." She said. Natsu noticed that her voice was raspy.
"Oh..." He said, still thinking about what Zeref was going to tell him. But he brushed it off. "So what are we doing today?"
"Not much," Lucy said, pointing to her red nose, "I have a cold."
XOXOXOXOXO
And there! Sorry that there aren't line breaks. I have an ipad and they won't let me put them for some weird reason.
We hope you enjoyed.
