A/N: Right. I'm so annoyed. I spent 3 hours last night drawing an eyeball to enter it into a drawing competition and it had to be done for the 5th, so I drew it all, choosing to finish that over this, and when I checked the leaflet, it said that the deadline was the 2nd and that they accepted no late entries. My stupid eyes! Urgh, and now I'm behind on my story and my homework. I'm so stupid. But anyways, here's the chapter!

When Lucy and Erza finally finished shopping and came back to the guild, it was 7 o'clock. Lucy didn't even know the shops were open that long, but a determined Erza knocking on their doors and demanding to be let in probably made them stay open for longer than they normally would.

They both walked to the bar and sat down, dragging their bags behind them. As soon as she climbed up onto the stool, Lucy couldn't help but ask the question which had been on her mind since she that afternoon.

"Do you know where Natsu is?" she questioned Mira hopefully.

Mira turned around from where she was drying a glass. "I haven't seen him since this morning Lucy. Why do you ask?"

Lucy looked away, blushing slightly. "No reason," she said, "I just wanted to ask him something."

As she turned back to talk to Erza, Mira smiled knowingly. She had seen Natsu running after Lucy and Erza when they left earlier, so she assumed that something had happened between them while she wasn't watching.

"Mira, Mira, MIRA."

Mira was shook out of her musings when she saw a tiny hand being shook in front of her face.

"Yes Lucy?" she asked amusedly.

Lucy jumped down off the bar and back onto her seat. "Can I and Erza please have a strawberry milkshake and a slice of strawberry cheesecake?"

Erza quickly butted in, "Just give me 'the cake' Mira."

Mira giggled at Erza's request and Lucy's amazed face. "Yes Erza, just the usual?"

Erza nodded.

"It'll just be a few moments!"

As Mira wandered off into the kitchen to get their orders, Lucy turned to Erza.

"I thought you loved strawberry cheesecake?"

"I do," she nodded, "But after I go shopping, I always get a special strawberry cake instead. It replenishes my energy."

Lucy laughed a bit at her friends reasoning and then turned around when she heard a cough from behind her.

"Master!" she greeted cheerfully, "I didn't see you there."

"Hello child. How are you coping?" He questioned.

"I'm actually doing okay," she replied, "I thought it would be awful but it's not really any different to what my day is usually like, everything's just a little bigger." She giggled.

Master laughed along with her. "You'll get used to that, trust me!" he joked, "Who is on the list tonight?"

"I'm not sure actually." She replied.

"I'll have a look for you Lucy." Erza said, walking off to find the list.

"Where's Natsu by the way?" asked Master, "Normally he doesn't let you out of his sight."

Lucy flushed bright red. "What do you mean Master?! He's not my babysitter! I have other friends outside of Natsu you know!" Master looked a bit startled by her outburst.

"I was only asking child. I just found it a bit unusual, that's all."

Now Lucy felt a bit bad for yelling at him.

"No, I'm sorry. I've just been a bit stressed lately." She sighed.

"It's fine," Master patted her head, "You're allowed to be stressed in this type of situation."

Lucy smiled up at him and was about to say something when Erza came back.

"Laki is supposed to be guarding Lucy tonight." She said.

"Laki?" asked Lucy, a bit surprised. Not that she didn't like Laki, but she didn't really talk to her that much so the fact that she had put herself down for guard duty was a bit surprising.

"Yes, I think her reasoning was that she wanted to look in your room since you looked in hers."

"Ah," Lucy sweat dropped when thinking about Laki's room in Fairy Hills, "That kind of makes sense. But I hope she isn't just doing this because she thinks I've got torture tools in my house like she has in hers!"

Erza suddenly jumped up from her seat.

"I know!" she shouted, "We should invite all the girls round to your house and have a sleepover!"

Before Lucy could answer, Master jumped in.

"That's an excellent idea!" He cried. "Girls! Report to the bar!" He shouted to the rest of the guild.

In a few short moments, all the girls in the guild were gathered around Master. Lucy just shook her head. They hadn't even asked her if it was okay with her, even though it was her house.

"We've decided to have a sleepover at Lucy's house." Said Erza. "Hand's up who wants to come."

Lucy looked at the girls as only a few actually put their hands up.

"Sorry Lucy," said Bisca, "Me and Alzack are going out tonight." She looked a little embarrassed when she said that last part.

"I'm going to visit a friend as well Lucy." Kinana said apologetically.

"I don't really want to join a little girl's slumber party." Evergreen said, as she walked off back to her team.

The people who had put their hands up stayed while the others went back to what they were doing before being called over. Laki, Mira, Juvia, Cana, Erza, Levy, Wendy and Carla were the only people left.

"Excellent!" exclaimed Erza. "Lucy, do you think we'll all be able to fit into your apartment?"

"We should do, especially with me being so small now." Lucy smiled.

"Then we shall go there now."


After everyone had gone to Fairy Hill's to get their overnight bags, they all met back at Lucy's house.

Lucy and Erza had just gone straight to Lucy's apartment because Erza could just requip her clothes and Lucy still needed someone to guard her. By the time the other girls came back, they had moved all the furniture in her living room so that there was a space on the floor in the middle of the room.

Erza looked at their handiwork with her hands on her hips and nodded.

"Yes, this shall do nicely." She decided.

It wasn't long before the rest of the girls came to the apartment. When they knocked on the door, Lucy went to answer it in her new fluffy pyjamas. She opened the door to find Cana wearing nothing more than her bra and some boy shorts.

"Cana!" shouted Lucy as she averted her eyes, "Put on some clothes!"

"Aaaaawww, you're so adorable!" Cana cried in response to her shouting. She swept Lucy up into her arms and proceeded to crush her face into her chest as she hugged her.

"Don't even try trying to get her to change," said Levy as the girls filed into her house, "We've been trying ever since we left Fairy Hill's."

As the girls all walked into the house and started unpacking their sleeping bags, Mira came through the door with a pile of stacked boxes.

"I stopped off at Yajima's restaurant and got them to make us some food!" She said as she put them in the middle of the floor.

The girls hungrily dug in and soon they were all sitting in a circle on top off their sleeping bags.

"Let's play truth or dare!" shouted Cana, clutching her drink in her hand.

"Maybe you should stop drinking." Erza replied.

"No!" Mira said, "I think that's a good idea. Cana you can start."

Without even waiting to see if the other girls were playing, Cana asked the first question.

"Laki! Truth or dare?"

"Truth!" declared Laki.

Cana smiled slyly. "Do you have a weird torture kink?"

Next to Laki, Wendy turned bright red as Carla shot daggers at Cana for asking such a question.

"No." Laki answered calmly, not even bothered by the question, "What makes you think that?"

She tilted her head innocently to the side as the rest of the girls sweat dropped.

"My turn now!" she cheered. "Erza, truth or dare?"

"Your dares will be too easy for me," mused Erza, "so I choose truth!"

Laki looked at Erza with the perfect question in mind to ask her, "What's your favourite smutty novel."

This time, both Wendy and Erza turned bright red and Carla started shouting at Laki.

"Laki! These are not questions which young ladies should be asking!"

She was interrupted by Cana's laughter.

"Do we look like ladies to you?" She asked from where she sat open legged with bottles of alcohol all around her. "Answer the question Erza!" she cackled.

"W-well, I w-w-would have to s-say that Were-w-wolf l-lovers is a ve-r-ry deep n-novel-"

She was cut off by Cana's maniacal laughter, "Yeah, reeeeaaaal deep." She said with a seductive wink. Erza shut her mouth and steam started coming out of her ears in embarrassment. Wendy's face mirrored Erza's.

"That's it!" shouted Carla, "Please refrain from asking these questions around Wendy!"

"Come on Carla!" said Cana, "Lighten up a little. It's just a bit of fun!"

"Just calm the questions down a little Cana," said Mira, "Wendy looks like she could pass out any moment." She put her hand over her mouth to hide her giggle.

"Fine," she pouted. "Erza, it's your turn to ask truth or dare."

Clearing her throat and trying to calm down, Erza turned to Lucy.

"Truth or dare?"

"Dare!" exclaimed Lucy.

"Excellent," grinned Erza. Straight away, Lucy started to regret picking Erza's dare. "I dare you to...wear this dragon onesie, go outside and scream 'I'm a dragon' while running up and down the street and then wear it for the rest of the evening."

"Oh God." Sighed Lucy. "Fine, but you can't record it or anything!"

Grumbling as she did so, Lucy stood up and went to the bathroom with the onesie in hand. Once she had locked the door, she pulled a key out of her belt.

"Open Gate of the Virgin, Virgo!" She cried.

"Punishment Hime?" Virgo appeared bowing before her in chibi form.

"No Virgo, no punishment," said Lucy, sweat dropping, "But can you help me put on this onesie please?"

"Yes Hime."

With Virgo's help, putting on the outfit was over in seconds and they both stepped back to look at the finished look.

"I look so adorably stupid, it's actually unbelievable." Dead panned Lucy. Virgo could only nod in agreement.

The onesie that Lucy was wearing basically turned her into a dragon. She had red arms and legs with an orange stomach and claw-like feet but, thankfully, the arms didn't cover her hands with similar claws, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to do a lot. She had red stuffed wings on her back and even a small, tipped tail which hung behind her. The hood was the worst though. It came up over her face until it reached her forehead where a massive stuffed snout rested and sewn on eyes sat on top of that while 3D spikes ran from the eyes all the way down the back of the onesie to the tail. The hood also had elastic in it so that it stuck to her face, leaving no gaps between her skin and the hood, however Lucy had pulled out her blonde hair so that it wasn't bunched up at her neck.

"Well," she sighed, "let's get this over with."

With a deep breath, she opened the door and stepped out into the living room to find her friends ready and waiting with lacrima's grasped in their hands.

Without warning, lights started going off as the girls took picture after picture of Lucy in her cute outfit.

"Argh! Guys, stop!" Lucy cried, trying to shield her eyes with her arms. This had the opposite effect however, because when she lifted up her arms, the wings on her back also lifted, eliciting another chorus of 'aaw's and more snapping of the lacrima's from the girls.

"Now Lucy!" Erza stepped in front of the other girls, "Go run round the street!"

"Fine." Huffed Lucy, "But don't let them take any pictures Erza-or you'll pay." She glowered at Erza.

When Lucy usually made that face, even Erza became a little scared-not that she'd ever admit that however-now though, with her tiny body, it had all the effect of a pouting toddler.

"Yes, yes." Smiled Erza, "Just hurry up and do it!"

With a final pout and huff, Lucy ran to the door and down the stairs onto the street, wanting to get this over and done with as soon as possible. When she got to the bottom of the stairs, she looked up to find the girls all watching her from her windows.

"You'd better not take any picture!" Lucy shouted up.

"We won't!" Cana called back down. When Lucy nodded in response, she added under her breath in a singsong voice, "But you didn't say anything about video's!"

Looking around in embarrassment but finding nobody on the streets around her, Lucy calmed down a little. It was just a few quick runs up and down the street right?


Natsu was on his way to the guild, thinking about what had happened between him and Lucy that afternoon. He had been pondering her actions at his house all afternoon after he had run away from her, but after not working out anything, he decided that what he needed to get his head into gear was to beat up Gray for a bit. That would clear his head, right?

He was almost there when he heard a noise from a couple of streets over.

"I'm a dragon! I'M A DRAGON!"

What was that?! Something about dragons?!

"Igneel?!" he yelled in the direction of the voice, "Is that you?!"

He didn't even stop to think, he just ran off in search of the person doing the shouting.


The girls were watching from Lucy's apartment's window as Lucy ran up and down the street in the little dragon onesie, shouting 'I am a dragon' as loud as she could. They had all decided, after watching her for a bit, that Lucy was adorable as a dragon and that if she was still stuck like this for Halloween, they would make her wear it again.

"After all," as Mira had put it, "Dressing up like a dragon might make her catch some attention."

They were about to shout down to her that she had run around enough when they suddenly heard some yelling in the distance.

"What's that?" asked Levy, alarmed.

"I don't know," replied Erza, "But if they mean to harm Lucy, then they shall have to get through me and my sword first!"

She was about to jump out of the window, sword in hand, when a hand across her chest stopped her.

"Wait!" It was Wendy, "It's fine Erza. It's just Natsu."

"Oh ho," grinned Cana, "It's just Natsu is it?"

Sure enough, after a couple of minute's shouting and running from both, Natsu burst out of an alley on the other side of the river.

"This should get interesting." Cana commented.


"IGNEEL!" Natsu continued to shout as he got closer and closer to the person doing all the shouting.

Suddenly, he tripped over a barrel at the end of an alley and fell onto the road next to the river...and opposite Lucy's apartment.

On no. This was bad. This was very bad. He couldn't see her now! Not after he had left her like that in the middle of the streets! He still needed to get his thoughts straightened out and decide on what he wants!

He was about to do a 180 and run back into the alleyway when a flash of red stopped him.

Wait. Was that Lucy? Wearing a dragon costume?!

Lucy was fed up of running backwards and forwards. She had ran up and down the street screaming so many times that she had lost track of how many lap's she'd done and her voice was a bit hoarse from shouting. She was about to call up to the girls to get them to let her back in when a clatter and thud from the other side of the river stopped her.

She turned around to find...

"Natsu?" she called, "What are you doing here?"

"What am I doing here?" repeated Natsu, "What are you wearing?"

Flushing, Lucy looked down, having completely forgot she was wearing the stupid dragon onesie.

"Aha, this? This is nothing!" she tried to play it off, "Just something that the girls were forcing me to wear. Nothing special..."

She trailed off as Natsu crossed the bridge and made his way towards her.

"Natsu?"

Natsu didn't know what happened when he looked at Lucy, but as soon as he realised what she was wearing, and the colour of it, his entire body suddenly became stiff and ridged.

His eyes became tunnel vision as he stared at Lucy and his nostrils flared, taking in her scent. He could her heartbeat starting to speed up from embarrassment and her breathing became quicker, coming out in short bursts. Before her knew it, he was standing right in front of her.

As if his body was on autopilot, he reached forwards to touch her blonde hair, which cascaded from the hood of the onesie down her body. She flinched back a bit, but stopped when she realised what her was doing.

"Natsu?" she questioned softly.

Instead of replying, he grabbed her gently by the shoulders and brought her body to his, burying his head in the crook of her neck. Taking a deep breath, he pulled in a lungful of Lucy's scent.

Seeing her standing there, as a dragon, wearing colours of fire and looking so damn cute, had set something off in him. Something which wanted Lucy.

His eyes became less and less focused as he kept breathing in Lucy's scent. Gently, he moved his hands so that he was cradling her head and moved it to the side so that her neck was exposed to him. He moved closer and closer until...

"Natsu!" Wendy shouted down from the window, "Don't let your instincts rule you!"

Natsu blinked slowly a few times and shook his head, as if clearing his mind from fog. He had completely forgotten about the girls watching them from the window.

"Whoooo!" cheered Cana, "Don't stop Natsu! You were just getting to the good bit!"

Natsu flushed red slightly when he realised what he had been doing to Lucy.

"Argh, Luce! I'm so sorry, I don't know what came over me!" He apologised.

"It's fine." Said Lucy, even though her face was bright red and she had jumped away from Natsu as soon as she heard Wendy's voice. She was looking anywhere but at Natsu, too embarrassed to make eye contact with him.

"Come on lovebirds!" Cana called down, "Get up here! Mira's decided to stop truth or dare and instead we're just going to sleep." She paused, "Well, you are at least. I'm gonna drink till the morning comes! Yeehaw!"


When Natsu and Lucy got back to Lucy's apartment, they were met with the sight of an extra sleeping bag and facemasks.

"Gah!" shouted Natsu, "What's on your face?!"

"Exfoliating facial scrubs and wrinkle reducing mud masks." Answered Mira, "Just a little something that me and Wendy came up with one day."

"They're extremely good for your skin and reduce the size of pores and wrinkles!" Exclaimed Wendy.

"Ooh, let me try one on!" Cried Lucy, running to join the girls, completely forgetting about her embarrassment when faced with new beauty products to try.

"Come on Natsu, you should try one too!" decided Lucy, already having some green gunk applied to her face by Levy and Juvia.

"No way!" yelled Natsu, "I'm not going to try your yucky girly stuff, and I'm definitely not going to put that on my face!"

Suddenly, the room was filled with a terrifying atmosphere and Erza seemed to appear from nowhere to stand before Natsu.

"Did I just hear you call my weekly routine 'yucky girly stuff' Natsu?" She asked with a deadly aura spilling out around her.

The rest of the girls in the room shivered as they felt the temperature drop.

"Girls!" Erza suddenly shouted, "Hold him down! Let's give him a chance to see how yucky and girly it really is."

She started advancing towards Natsu with a devious smirk on her lips while the other girls, except Lucy and Wendy who were cowering in the corner, followed behind her, holding the methods of torture aloft so that he could see them.

"NOOOOOOOO!"


Later on that night, after a movie marathon, midnight snack and some gossip, everyone was lying fast asleep in bed, apart from Mira and Erza. They had been awoken by knocking at the door and when they had gone to answer it they had found Happy.

"Is Natsu here?" he asked with a sad expression, "He's been really broody lately and I can't find him anywhere."

Mira smiled gently at the cat, "He's fine Happy, he's been here all night."

"Go through and find him." Added Erza.

They were halfway through making a light bite to eat when Happy came into the kitchen.

"Do you think I'll be allowed to sleep with Natsu and Lucy?" He questioned.

"I'm sure it will be fi-" Mira's answer was cut off by Erza.

"What do you mean?! Are they too close? Is her chastity in danger?" She requipped a sword and was about to go swinging it in the living room when Mira stopped her.

"I'm sure they're fine Erza, right Happy?" She gave a hard look to Happy.

"Yes Erza," Happy started sweating, "They're fine. Go see for yourself."

She requipped her sword away and walked into the living room. Almost immediately she rushed back in.

"Mira, where's the lacrima?!"

"It's here," Mira pulled it out of her pocket, "Why do you want it?"

"Just come look!" Erza whisper-shouted.

She grabbed her arm and dragged her to the living room where they found Natsu and Lucy huddled up together in Lucy's sleeping bag, with Lucy still wearing the dragon onesie. They both still had the face masks on and the light green clashed spectacularly well with Natsu's salmon coloured hair. As they watched, Natsu mumbled something in his sleep and dragged Lucy closer as she snuggled closer into his chest.

Instantly, Mira began taking video's and pictures while Erza just watched from the side, in awe at how cute they could be.

Even though they themselves didn't know it, they were definitely the cutest couple in Fairy Tail.
