Wendy threw up her arms and shouted jubilantly before she was lifted off her feet by Natsu who hugged her really tight. As her head rested on his shoulder she was so close to falling asleep again, but she was immediately pulled away from Natsu by Cana who wanted all the details about their relationship.
"Honestly Cana all we do is kiss and spend time together and I love it!" Cana sighed she was obviously disappointed.
"Can I go back to him now?" Wendy asked not really caring about Cana's answer as she rose from the corner of the bar and went to join the others.
"How could you get a girl?" Wakaba asked and Makao joined him,
"I know he really couldn't care less about girls a couple of months ago and look at him now!" the whole guild laughed, but Natsu didn't really care. Wendy gave him a quick kiss as she arrived at the scene before settling herself comfortably with her back against Natsu's legs.
"So, gramps! What are we going to be doing these next two days?" asked Natsu, Makarov nodded as if he'd already considered it. Everyone was expecting some smart speech from the guild master but he just grinned wide and yelled;
"Have fun!" Natsu laughed and Wendy could feel his legs vibrating against her back.
"Hey? How do you feel about checking this festival out during daytime as well?" Natsu leant down and whispered in her ear, she blushed a bit and nodded.
"There is so much foooooooood!" Natsu was in heaven. All these food stands filled with some kind of meat on a stick. The only thing stopping him from raiding them all was Wendy. Whenever she was with him everything else was "Put on hold" so that he had enough time to think about what he was doing.
"You can't eat it all, you don't have enough money." Said Wendy, but Natsu laughed in a perfect Gajeel impression and pulled out a completely stuffed wallet.
"When you don't have to pay rent then you save up a lot." Wendy was surprised she figured her boyfriend was the kind of person that could never save up a single jewel.
"Still I won't eat it all, even I won't be able to without having serious problems for the next week." He patted his stomach like he used to.
""Even you?" then it must be nearly impossible." Wendy laughed at Gray's remark before stopping Natsu from attacking him.
They walked around a lot that day most of the time surrounded by guildmates and Wendy talked to Lucy the whole way so Natsu felt completely alone event though he still held her hand.
"So, Wendy why do you think we got selected to compete?" Lucy seemed to have been pondering it for quite some time now.
"I really don't know I mean they could have picked Mira or Laxus or even Gajeel, but I think they're running late anyways so that must be why we got picked."
"So we're like reserves?" Lucy seemed really disappointed and Wendy suddenly felt bad about telling her that way.
"Neh, you're not reserves. You're two of the most powerful fairy tail mages we have so of course the master chose you." then he did something that surprised both Lucy and Wendy and maybe even himself. He kissed both of them on the forehead. It was totally a brotherly kiss the one he gave to Lucy, but Wendy couldn't help but feel jealous.
"Hey dimwit? Remember what I told you about suddenly going smart? I don't like it" she kissed him just to make her doubts go away, but if she thought about it she knew there was also another reason for it. She had to make sure that Lucy didn't take Natsu from her.
"Okay sure thing Wendy I'll stay dumb for you."
"You better!" she said before both she and Natsu started cracking up.
Kind of short I know, just posted to let you know that I'm having a little problem with making these chapters. As I started this story I decided that I was going to follow the actual story, not make some sort of sidestep from the main story. I have now discovered yet again how difficult that actually is and so I warn you that these chapters will not be posted as often as they used to since I have to take my time writing them. Post me reviews if there is something you would like me to add and I'll consider it.
