Hey. I'm back. Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. School just started. Blah blah blah and all that stuff. Yeah, common excuse, but it's my freshman year so. Yeah. Sorry. So, anyway guys. Look. I know how in the last chapter I asked for a review or two, but if that offended you, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it to. It's just that I only get reviews from two or three people, so I usually have their input on the chapters. I wanted other's inputs so I could become a better writer. I'm sorry if I sounded like I was looking for attention. Please don't hate me?There's also a new thing. This chapter is the end of NaLu getting together. So next on my list is Gruvia. I need an Idea as to how to get them together. You gotta pm the idea to me. If you review it, I won't even bother to look at it. Also! Has anyone ever heard the song 'Pika Girl' by S3RL? It's really good. So, here's the next chapter. OH! If you haven't read the chapter with a major rejection, there's a spoiler in here. Fair heads up.

Lucy POV

"Sure…" I say very wearily. "What is it?"

He mumbles something incoherent. "Can you say that again?" I ask. He nods and mumbles, again. I think quieter this time. "Speak up Natsu. I can't hear you." I say getting really annoyed. "If you're just gonna mumble it then don't bother to bring it up." I finish and turn back around. Only to find Natsu right behind me.

He grabs my hand, looks straight into my eyes and says "Lucy, don't, move." My eyes widen, and he notices. He then slowly starts to smile, and ends up on the floor of my room. "Luce, the look on your face! Ahahahahaha!"

"Jerk. I'm going to the guild. Stay here or leave, I don't care. Can't stop you anyway." I say, and just walk out the door. Halfway to the Guild, Natsu catches up to me.

"Luce," He says, sorta panting. He must have run all the way. Idiot. "I really do need to talk to you." He continues. "Can we go down to the park real quick?"

I look at him and think what does my - er, the - pink haired idiot want now? "Fine, but I have to be at the Guild in half an hour. Something about Juvia getting depressed."

He has us sit under the big tree in the middle of the park. "Lucy." He starts. "Ever since we first met, I knew there was something in you. I just didn't know what it was. I knew there was potential for you to call up more than one spirit once I found out that you were a cele mage. But there was still more potential I couldn't figure out. It wasn't until Melody started teasing me about it that I figured it out."

"Natsu." I say, looking deeply into his eyes.

"Lucy," he says, looking equally deeply into my eyes. "I realize what that potential is." He says with a small smile and a light blush. "It wasn't the potential in you. It was the potential in me. The potential for me to admit it. I love you." He finished.

I just sat there, shocked for a few seconds. Then, I smiled. More like smirked. "Took you long enough." I waited a few seconds before continuing on. "It's been obvious since the grand magic games." I finish. My smirk had grown into a full on smug smile. After a few more seconds, I leaned in, and kissed him. Then, me being me, I got up and started to walk away.

Natsu recovered quickly, catching up within fifteen seconds of me walking away. He came up behind me, wrapped his arms around my waist and whispered in my ear "So is this yes?"

"Absolutely. Now lets get to the guild, or I'll be chewed out by Mira." I said and started to run to the guild. Natsu started running as well. He could run faster than me, considering I was wearing my boots, but he stayed next to me, and I knew he wouldn't leave.

When we got to the guild, I had seconds to get to the bar. "Sorry Mira, Natsu had to tell me something."

"It's okay Lucy. Everyone in the guild already knows." She said with a smile. I give her a weird look and she pointed at Warren. "Natsu had Warren connect the conversation you two had to the guild speakers." She explained. I sighed and just shook my head, dropping the conversation.

Melody and Juvia were also sitting at the bar with us. Melody was smiling with the biggest smile I have probably ever seen on anyones face. And this smile was produced by two things. Both included me. One was obviously what happened with me and Natsu just now, and the other was a sketch that she has been working on for weeks.

"Melody, being the Music Dragon Slayer, what all can you do?" I ask out loud. She looks up from her sketch, smiles, and goes back to sketching. "Are you gonna answer?"

"Nope."

"Will I ever find out?"

"Eventually."

"Tomorrow?"

"...Sure, why not?"

I turn my attention to a very happy Mira and a slightly depressed Juvia. "So what's wrong Juvia?" I ask, only half expecting a response from Juvia.

"Juvia is sad... because... even Lucy... could get the guy... she... liked to... notice... her, and say... he loves... her. And the one... Juvia likes won't... even give Juvia... the time of... day." Juvia said in between sobs. I'm not sure if I should take that as a complement or as an insult, so I'll just ignore it for now.

"Juvia, did you ever consider that maybe Gray doesn't like clingy girls? Maybe if you went on a mission for about a week or so, and only make small talk with him, he'd find you more interesting." Melody pipes up.

"How would… Juvia know how… to make… small… talk?" She asks, still sobbing. Right after she finishes, Melody smiles. Now, knowing Dragon Slayers, especially ones like Natsu and Gajeel, when they smile with a determined look in their eyes, it never means anything innocent, sweet, gentle, or good. In other words, trouble.

"Melody, what are you planning?" I ask skeptically. Immediately after I said this, she held up a Request from the board that she must have had for a while. "Looking for five young wizards to come and help me get my daughter back. 500,000 jewel. Could be anywhere from three days to three weeks." I read out loud. "Sounds easy enough, but who would be the fifth wizard?" I ask. "With you, me Juvia and Mira, that will only be four."

She starts grinning again. This time it looks, if at all possible, even more devilish than the one she smiled before. "Not, a, problem." She says and starts scanning the room. "Hey Levy!" She yells before I have a chance to stop her. "Do you wanna go on a quest with the four of us!" she yells all the way across the guild.

I can see Levy thinking this through. She stole a quick glance at Gajeel, and looked back asthma us. "Sure!" She called back at us. I knew it would be an easy job. Not many bandits in that area they are probably in the northern woods surrounding the area.

"Okay everyone, be here at nine tomorrow morning. If your not here by nine, then just go down to the station and wait for us there." She said. And with that I knew that we were in for a long two ir three weeks.

Okay. You now have something to look forward to. ^-^ Again. School stuff. I have been working on this for about three weeks. So there you go. What does Melody have in store for those four unfortunate souls. Find out whenever I feel like letting you find put on Remember. Oh yeah, I'm writing an original story, do you want me to post it?
