Hey Guys! It's been awhile. I am sorry for being late once again. Not sure if I'll ever be early ever again either :/. Anyway one of the reasons for the looonnnggg wait is because I went camping (No Wifi ;-;) which was fun. I also got an idea for a mini NaLu story while I was there but not sure if I should post it. It would be a one shot and it's kinda based on a true story-ish (Leave a review if I should or not!). Moving on to this chapter, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. There is NaLu in it! I did my best and it was fun to write this one. I got really excited and I'm hoping you'll let me know what you think!

Chapter 10 Chaos In The morning

I talked to the rest of the Zodiac in one night. 10 of them. One by One. Some weren't happy and some were so joyful they cried. I didn't get any sleep but I wasn't tired. I had to tell them. I had to mean my words. Now I take the steps. Forward. It's a good thing I don't have classes. I would collapse. I said I wasn't tired but that was when I was talking to the zodiac. Now after one sleepless night, I'm done.

I drop on my bed. Sleep at last. My eyelids fall close.

"LUCE! WAKE UP! IT'S MORNING! BREAKFAST!" Natsu shouts through the door banging on my door.

Right when I close my eyes.

"Natsu. Go away." I groan.

"C'MON YOU'RE GONNA MISS BREAKFAST!" He yells back.

"I don't care. Leave. I need my sleep."

"YOU HAD ALL NIGHT FOR THAT! WAKE UP! LUCE!"

I shove my head in my pillow.

"LUCE!"

I should just ignore him.

"LUUCCEE!"

More banging. More ignoring.

"LUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCYYYYYYYYYYYY!"

"OH MY GOD NATSU!" I yell as I get up and storm to the door and open it.

Natsu stands there with a smile. I stand there with a glare in my eyes.

"Natsu, I have stayed up all night and would appreciate to get some sleep before I collapse." I explain with an 'I'm gonna kill you' smile.

"Why would you do that? C'mon Luce, everyone is gonna be there and you love breakfast!" He complains back.

I blink at him. Is he an idiot? Wait I already know that but still! I just told him I haven't had any sleep and may collapse.

"Natsu... I just told you. I am running on no sleep. Any longer and I may kill someone and look you are the closest." I tell him ending with another 'I'm going to fucking kill you' smile

He gulps and takes a step back. He then puts his hands up.

"Alright, Alright, I got it. If you wanted me to bring it to you, you could've just said so." He says with a smirk.

"I didn't say-" I try to reply back and

He's gone.

I am so locking the door. I am going to sleep. No more disturbances. Sound Sleep. I rest back on my bed. Nothing but Silence. I snuggle into my pillow, close my eyes, and fall into my heavenly darkness of slumber.

"Luce." Natsu's voice gets my attention.

"Natsu? Where am I?" I ask confused of how I got here.

I look around. Everything is white. Nothing else just white.

"Lucy." His voice calls again but I can't see him.

"Natsu? Where are you?" I call out looking around.

"Behind you."

I turn quickly and a hand grabs my hand making take me take a step.

I'm in a huge green field. Flowers are seen in the distance. I look around.

"Luce."

I look back in front of me. It was Natsu's hand that grabbed mine and it's Natsu who's in front of me holding my hand.

"Where are we?" I ask him.

He smiles with his big grin.

"Come." He speaks back.

He pulls me along through the field, through the flowers. Birds fly above us in the blue sky. The sun smiles on our skin. A warm breeze surrounds us.

"Where are we going?" I ask him another question.

He just looks over his shoulder and smiles again that's more of smirk. Then he looks forwards again. His hand warmly pulls me. I stare at his walking figure. Something tugs my heart. I blush at bit and look at the ground.

Natsu stops. I bump into him. I back up a bit but Natsu doesn't let go of my hand. I realize we are by a cliff. I notice Natsu is staring into the horizon so I do the same. The sight is astonishing. It's paradise that words cannot describe. Beautiful. Speechless beauty. The sun is setting over this sanctuary. Natsu turns back to me. I look back to him in the eyes. He smiles happily. He pulls me into a soft, gentle hug.

"Natsu." I don't know why I don't question.

He leans to my ear.

"Lucy." He whispers my name sending chills down my spine.

He slowly pulls away from the hug and looks me in the eyes.

"I love you, Luce." His words fill my ears.

"I love you too." Slips from my mouth.

I love him? Natsu smiles once again perfectly. He leans down to me. I lean towards him. Anticipating the kiss. Our lips inching together slowly. Centimeters apart.

"LUCE! WAKE UP!" Natsu yells at me scaring the crap out of me.

I jump up. I breathe hard.

"A dream?" I ask myself looking around.

"Did you have another bad dream?" Natsu asks, inching close to my face.

My eyes widen and I slap him away.

"What the hell! Why?" Natsu cusses in confusion.

"W-why are you here? H-how did you get in?" I ask stuttering.

I can't look at him in the face I'm so embarrassed

"Well, I told I'd bring breakfast. And I try to open the door but you locked it so I went thought the window. Here" He says so casually hand me a tray with strawberry crepes and a milk shake on it. How did he get this through my window? I take the tray.

"S-so you broke into my room?!" I accuse him still stutter and not making eye contact.

"Well not exactly. It was unlocked!" He justifies himself.

"T-that doesn't make it okay!"

"But I told you I was coming! And you purposely locked the door!"

"Because I wanted to sleep!"

I finally look at him but not for long. His face is once again close. I remember the last part of my dream. I blush really hard and turn away quickly. I stuff my mouth with crepe.

"What were you doing all night anyway?" he asks me.

"Important stuff." I reply, mouth full, looking away.

"What important stuff?"

"Just Stuff!"

"I'm asking what stuff!"

"None of your business!"

He grabs my cheeks and yanks them to face him.

"Why won't you look at me?" He asks seriously.

I swallow hard and my flushes bright red. I jolt back knocking the tray spilling everything on the floor and Natsu. Natsu falls backs wards pulling my face bring me down with him. I fall on his chest being smushed with crepe and milkshake. My blankets in the middle of the mess.

"Oh my god..." Natsu puffs out.

I jump from off his chest being even more embarrassed. Not a good idea. I go backwards and end up kneeing his crotch.

"Gahhhhhhhh" He groans in pains.

"Ah, Sorry" I apologize getting off of him.

My face is red in embarrassment, there's mess all over the floor, and Natsu rolling in it crying in pain, great.

"Natsu stop it! You're making it worse!" I shout at him.

He stops rolling and looks at me.

"Making it worse? You created this whole mess! And to top it off you were the one that sacked me!" He argues back.

"Only because you grabbed my face!" I blame him.

"How does that make it my fault?!"

"I don't know! Whatever, this wouldn't have happened if you just let me sleep1"

"You can't sleep the day away. It's a waste of the day."

"Well I was just hoping to sleep this morning; I didn't say I would sleep all day."

"Right, if I bet you would sleep till lunch."

"I probably would."

"That's not good."

"It's a weekend! People do sleep in!"

"Oh yea it's a weekend."

"You forgot?"

"Not really but I just woke up earlier than usual today."

I sigh and walk towards the bathroom.

"Where you going?"" Natsu asks from the floor.

"To take a shower. You try to clean that up." I explain walking in the washroom.

"Oh no you don't."

He grabs my wrist and pulls me backwards. I trip and fall on my butt.

"HEY! Not cool!" I shout at him.

"I get to shower first. I'm messier and you have to clean it up." He explains with a smirk.

"But it's my shower. Plus if you wanted to shower just go to your room, it's right next door."

"Yes it is but I'm dripping with milkshake and I don't want to drip the mess in the hall. We'll both get yelled at then."

"But-"

"Just start cleaning up."

He walks in and locks the door. I stare at the door for a moment. He just stole my shower. I grab my dirty blanket and put it in my dirty clothes basket. Grabbed some cleaning supplies from the closet by the bathroom. I soak up all the spilled liquid. I clean up the chucks of crepe on the floor. It's a good thing I don't have carpet. I'm going to need to mop. I can only do that after I shower. I take out my spare blanket and put it on my bed.

"Luce! Where are your towels?" I hear Natsu shout through the bathroom door.

"Under the sink." I shout back.

"Found them!"

I hear the bathroom door unlock. Natsu steps out of the washroom nothing but a towel around his waist. I gulp. Natsu has abs. Like built abs. He looks hot. What the hell am I thinking? But seriously, He looks good. I knew Natsu was attractive but I didn't know he was this attractive.

"Like what you see?" His voice breaks my thoughts.

I flush red. He noticed I was staring.

"N-no. I-I am g-going to take a s-shower now." I stutter getting up and rushing to the washroom.

I hear him laughing through the door. My face is burning. My heart is beating. There is something wrong with me. I have to ask Levy.

I strip and get in the shower. I calm down. The steam feels good on my skin. My mind wanders back to the dream I had. It's starting to fade in my mind. All I can really remember of it is me and Natsu exchanged 'I love you's and were about to kiss. I can't believe I had that dream. I mean I've never thought of Natsu like that, have I? Anyway it's just weird. It's not like I find him attractive besides when he's shirtless. But that doesn't mean anything. Every girl likes abs so it's ok if I think his abs are cool. I would think any guy's abs is nice. Natsu is just a built good looking good looking boy.

The water streams down my body. The heat releases my muscles from tension. It feels so good. I wash my golden hair clean. I scrub the dirt off my body. I feel like I'm sparkling. I get out of the steaming bliss. I grab my towel. Natsu probably left. So there shouldn't be any more problems. I wrap the towel around my body and grab the door handle. I twist it and open the door.

Natsu is laying on my bed in his boxers looking through my sketch book.

"What are you doing? Why are you still here?" I shout at him.

He looks up at me and scans me from bottom to top. I realize I'm still just wearing a towel and hide behind the bathroom door. He laughs again and puts down my sketch book. I peek out to hear his answer.

"Ah well, my clothes are dirty and I can't just go out like this." He explains.

"YOU LIVE NEXT DOOR!" I yell at him.

"Yea but still-"

"OUT! I want to get changed and I can't with you here."

"But I-"

"I don't care, get out."

I come out of hiding and push him to the door.

"Hey- wait a minute-" He starts talking.

"Out! Out! Out! Out!" I repeat.

I open the door and shove him out. I re-lock it and hear him shout a bit outside. His voice disappears. I sigh and walk to my dresser. I put on a pink tank top and some jean shorts. I decide to mop my room so I do that. It's finally clean.

I blow dry and brush my hair. I want to hang out with Levy. I have to talk to her. I need to ask her questions about my dream. I walk out of my room and lock it. I glance at Natsu's door. I shake my head and walk down the hall. I go straight to Levy's room. I knock on the door. I wait for a few seconds then the door slowly opens. Levy stands there in Pajamas and messy hair.

"Lu-Chan?" She confirms it's me.

"Hi Levy-chan. I was wondering if you wanted to hang out?" I ask her.

"Yea sure. That be awesome. Come in!"

She opens the all the way and lets me in. Her room is different from mine. She has a bigger book shelf and a bigger desk. Her bed is smaller though. She has a circular rug in the middle of the room that's pink and white. It matches her walls that are pink.

"SO this is my room." She tells me bubbly.

"It's nice." I tell her.

"Thanks. Come sit down"

She sits on her bed and pats next to her. I walk over and sit where she gestured.

"So what did you want to do?" Levy asks.

"Well actually I need to ask you about something." I reply

"What is it?"

"It's about I dream I had."

"Good dream or bad dream?"

"Honestly I don't know."

"What do you mean?"

"Well I can't remember full details but it involved Natsu."

"Go on."

"We were walking and he was pulling me by the hand. I asked him where we were going but he just smiled. Then we stopped by a cliff. He pulled me into a hug and said my name. Then he pulled away and told me he loved me and I told him I loved him and we were about to kiss but I woke up."

"Oooo A Love Dream!"

"Love dream?"

"You know when you have a dream about the one you like."

"But I don't like Natsu. At least I don't think I do."

She smirked at me. She then sighed.

"Do you ever feel weird around Natsu?" She asks.

"I don't know if I feel weird but sometimes my heart beats really fast and I get embarrassed for no reason." I explain.

"You totally like him!"

"I don't! It was just a weird dream!"

"Do you find him attractive?"

"Well yea sort of but that's because he is attractive. I'm not saying it's 'I love you' attraction but I just think he's good looking."

"Mhmm."

Levy is smiling at me. She grabs my hands and gets excited. She asked me more questions so I told her the story of this morning and she went ballistic.

"You saw him just in a towel?" She asked super excited.

"Yea but I hopped in the show immediately." I reply.

We talked for hours. I found out she's in love with Gajeel and thinks he likes her too but won't ask her out. It came time for lunch. Both of us headed to the cafeteria together. I thought about what Levy said. Is it possible that I like Natsu? I mean I guess it is. I mean we do hang out a lot and I do think about him a lot. But isn't that because he was the first one I met? I don't know anymore!

We sit at our usual table with our food. Natsu and Gray are already there arguing. Natsu notices me and gives me a small glare. He must be mad about before. I roll my eyes with a smile. He can't help but smile back. He puts Gray in a head lock. He's so childish. I notice I'm staring once again. I look away blushing.

There's no way I like him!
