Its strange, how he can take me from zero to sixty, or vice versa, so easily. Id had a year to try and figure it out and I'm still stumped at how he does it. Whether it be happiness, anger, arousal or even sadness; Natsu had mastered my emotions and I don't even think he knows when hes doing it. Hes like a master pianist who's never taken a lesson in his life, hitting what notes I need to hear and the only one who had ever broken the mask of happiness I wore around myself like a shield. Here we are, luckily alive and miraculously unhurt after his idiotic stunt but I am incapable of holding onto my anger in the face of his jubilation. The smile on his face is breathtaking and I can feel myself melting. Stupid dragon. "You moron."
"Yeah. I know." The pride and joy is still there in his voice but his face has gone blank as he stares down at me, slowly letting me slide down his body till my boots hit solid ground but keeping me trapped against him. His eyes study my face and a feel a blush heat my cheeks as embarrassment takes up residence in my mind. I know I've changed over the year apart, and not in the best of ways I'm sure. I was dirty, scarred and skinnier then I had ever been and it has only just occurred to me that he might not like the changes. My hands raise to his chest to shove away but before I can muster my strength his lips are on my own, demanding entrance and my head empties of everything but how good he tastes.
Strong fingers wrap around my hips, holding me in place for his mouth to plunder. Its hot and wonderful and everything I had always secretly dreamt it would be. So many emotions, so much needed to be said but right now all I wanted was to be claimed by my dragon. My dragon. He belonged to me, just as Id always belonged to him and that realization only serves to heighten my ardor, a mewl of pleasure escaping my lips. His answering groan has my stomach clenching even as he pulls away, eyes slitted and burning as he looks down at me.
"Fuck Luce. Come on. Before I lose my common sense." Grabbing my wrist he tugs me along behind him, still dazed by that short but amazingly passionate kiss. A chll in the air finally breaks into my daze and I look around, startled at how dark it is around us. Glancing over my shoulder shows a rounded entrance silhouetted in moonlight. A cave then. Turning back I can just make out Natsu's back as he tugs me along, one burning fist raised in front of him though I suspect its more for my benefit then his own as his eyesight was incredible even in pitch blackness.
"Natsu?"
"Hmm?"
"Where are we?"
"A cave. Duh." My fingers itch to smack him upside the head but I curb the urge and sigh instead.
"Yeah, I gathered that. Why are we in a cave Natsu?"
"Igneel and I stayed here for a while back before he disappeared, so I knew we were close."
"O...k...but why did we need to come here?" Finally he turns to look at me, his flaming fist illuminating his profile but leaving his face in shadows, hiding his expression from my curious eyes.
"Where else would a dragon go to claim his mate?" I don't have a response to that one, my mouth dropping open in shock and face flushing as I gape at him. I cant see him, but somehow I know he is grinning in that sexy way again.
~ Natsu ~
I want to laugh at her expression, but I wont. No reason to ruin the moment. Swallowing back my chuckle I grin instead, spinning back around and continuing on with her following docilely behind me. The tunnel isn't too long, but long enough that any animals interested in creating a den would be put off by it. The temperature drops as we venture further into the cave, and though I knew Lucy would be chilled at first when my heat kicked up it would be a big bonus. The thought makes me grin again and I slide my hand from her wrist to twine our fingers together and squeeze her hand reassuringly. Finally I feel the walls around us give way to open air and working from memory I turn right to follow the cavern wall a few feet before stopping and reaching upward with my free hand. When my fingers encounter wood I whoop in victory and shoot off a ball of flame, the torch set into the stone lighting up easily even after so long.
Turning I watch Lucy's eyes adjust to the light and watch her spin in a slow circle to take in our surroundings. The cavern is large, so large that the light does little to illuminate it other then to give a general idea of the size and reveal a ledge directly to the right of the torch. Letting go of Lucy I scale onto the ledge, grinning widely when I feel the bundles of fur rolled up in one corner. Jumping back down to the cave floor I walk a few paces away and unroll the fur, snapping the makeshift blanket in the air a few times to loosen any rocks or dust collected over the years. Luckily for me bugs and dragons did not get along so well so there was little worry over creepy crawlies hidden in the blankets. Even after so many years the scent of dragon in the cave was strong and worked like a barrier to pests. Satisfied that no sharp objects would interrupt us now I practically hop back to the ledge, scaling the rock wall with practiced ease and smoothing out the fur blankets with careful hands.
Nearly vibrating in eagerness now I spin back and reach a hand down to my pretty little mate, dragon purring in satisfaction when she does not hesitate to put her small hand in my own. A quick tug brings her into my lap, the momentum knocking us both down onto the furs with me on my back and Lucy cradled against my chest. That worked better then expected...Feeling a hand on my chest I look down at the blonde headed female and watch as she pushes herself up enough to look at me, eyes dark and beautiful face flushed with what I hope to be anticipation.
"Natsu...your sure about this? Wont we be tied to one another forever?" Watching as she bites her lower lip in the adorable way she is prone to do when nervous I slowly raise myself up into a semi sitting position, one arm planted behind me for support and the other moving to cradle her jaw. My thumb strokes that lower lip before moving to her cheek, following the curve of bone with a gentle swipe. While I miss the roundness her face and figure used to have the new slimness suits her well, face now delicate and pixie like.
"Luce...damn I'm not good with this stuff. Look, you've always been mine even if I wouldn't admit it. When we met in Hargeon and you went off to that boat I nearly went crazy, then went crazier trying to figure out why I cared. When it finally clicked I decided to take you back with me, not to claim you but to just...keep you safe I guess. When you were around other guys or on a date I would loose my fucking mind. Once Gajeel even had to knock my ass out it got so bad. Ive been tied to you from day one whether I liked it or not. Now that I've accepted it there is nothing I want more then to finally claim whats mine. But what about you? You know its not going to be easy having a dragon for a mate."
"It wasn't exactly easy having a dragon for a best friend either, but that never stopped me. Wait...is that why you were always sneaking into my house and sleeping in my bed!?" The sheepish grin on my face must have been answer enough because she rolls her eyes, mutters 'idiot' under her breath and leans up to seal our lips together again.
Our tongues dance and I slide my hand from her jaw, trailing my claws down her neck and over her shoulders before dipping lower to trace her side until I reach her hip. I hadn't given her time to get her shirt back on earlier, not that either of us had seemed to notice, so my hand encounters warm skin rather then fabric and I groan. Shes just so damn soft. Claws curling around her hip I tug her harder into my body, her breasts flattening against my chest and reawakening that clawing need in my head. Letting myself drop back to lie on the furs I keep her pressed against me, the mating of our mouths become distress as the need for oxygen battles against the need to taste. Finally Lucy pulls back, greedily gulping air and hands racing over my toned chest and stomach before she plants them against my skin so that she can shift positions until she is straddling my hips. My delighted growl makes her smile.
Grabbing her hips I grind up against her, watching the smile give way to a gasp of surprised pleasure. Repeating the motion I start up a slow rocking, one hand slithering back up her side to tug at the tip of one rosy nipple. Her breathing becomes erratic as I fondle the tip to attention before abandoning it to do the same to the other, her body shuddering with each upward grind of my hips. Her eyes have closed but I cant seem to look away from her face, the pleasure glowing there too intoxicating to miss. When I raise my head and lick one eager tip Lucy's head falls back, a groan ripping from her throat and her hands diving into my hair. Eagerly I give her what she so clearly wants, my fangs grazing her sensitive skin and sending shivers down her spine. I'm proud of my restraint until one of those slim hands drops from my head to tunnel between us and wrap around my swollen member.
With a roar I twirl us, delighted by the squeal I startle from the gorgeous creature now lying beneath me. My claws make quick work of her pants and I grin at the dazed expression on her face. She was gonna be pissed at me for destroying her clothes later, but right now she couldn't seem to concentrate long enough to even notice. That's the way I wanted to keep her. Sitting back on my haunches I run my eyes over her figure, the only covering left a wispy piece of lace over her core. Pale skin, smooth lines of muscle and a few shiny lines from scarring that only enhanced the fragile look of her. Raising one hand I run my claws over the skin of her thighs, the catching of her breath stretching my mouth into a predatory grin. His skin is so damn soft here its amazing; I can only imagine how it'll feel when they are wrapped around my waist. When my claws skim over the lace covering her and her hips buck into my touch a shot of male pride races through me. This woman, my best friend, my mate...knowing I'm the one bringing her this pleasure...making her mindless...fuck its good.
Dipping my head I rain kisses down her stomach, tongue tracing the elastic of those sexy little panties and earning another whimper and shift of her hips toward my mouth in a needy grind that makes my dragon roar in my head. Her smell is driving me fucking insane. Impatience slams into me and clamping my teeth into that lace I rip it from her body and dive down to spear her with my tongue, the scream that rips from her throat mingling with my loud groan as her taste floods my mouth.

I don't have time to relish how fucking sexy it was that he just ripped my underwear off. With his teeth. His tongue forces a scream from me and my back arches in pleasure, that coil of pleasure deep in my stomach tightening painfully. Oh. My. Gods. His tongue is hot and strong as he laps at me, spreading me for sensual torture I've only ever dreamt of. Every few licks he twirls that skilled tongue around my clit, bringing me to the edge of bliss before dipping it lower and starting the process all over again. His tongue...oh gods his tongue. Magic. It had to be magic. Nothing could feel this good and not be magical.
Feeling him roll that skilled appendage over my clit again and I lose my train of thought, eyes screwing shut under his onslaught. Just as I feel that coil tightening in that painful way before it explodes I become aware of an odd stretching sensation inside of me. Startled my eyes pop open and my body clenches, legs tightening around his shoulders. Natsu's head rises to look at me, his uniquely colored hair draping over his dark eyes in a way that makes my breath catch again. "Easy Luce. Relax for me baby."
Nervousness radiates from me but I do my best to obey, forcing my muscles to relax as Natsu's head dips back down and his tongue resumes its magic on my clit. Slowly my legs relax followed by the rest of me and I watch as his arm begins to move in a slow pumping motion for a few moments before it hits me that when I'm feeling are his fingers. My blush is nuclear but I lay my head back and trust my dragon, warmth finally flooding back into me as his skilled mouth and fingers work me back into a frenzy. I can feel him burning, his skin where we touch would be singing if I weren't his mate, but he is being so patient with me. By now I'm sure he knows but it doesn't dull the pleasure any and I feel a sense of pride that he would be the one to take my innocence.
~ Natsu ~
It only took a few shallow thrust of my fingers to figure it out. Couple that with how tight she is and her sudden tensing...my gorgeous little mates a virgin. Possessiveness is a living thing inside me, my dragon roaring its approval that this blonde was ours and ours alone in every way possible. Instinct pounds at me to rush and claim her like the dragon I am, but the man side of me knows I'm going to have to have patience. When she finally begins relaxing again I don't rush, keeping the gentle pace as I wind her back up to that edge between pleasure and pain. I can feel her at the edge, her mewls of pleasure and the shifting of her hips begging for release. With a growl against her skin I nip at the little bundle of nerves, sucking at her while at the same time spinning my fingers and making a come hither gesture inside of her that I knew would hit that sweet spot and drive her wild. With a scream of my name she shatters, body convulsing around my fingers and its like someone poured lava through my veins. Fire erupts over my skin, illuminating the area around us in a dim glow and I watch fascinated as she screams again, another round of convulsions clamping my fingers in place as my magic seems to take her farther into madness.
Watching her scream under me, mindless as I take her over the edge and into oblivion was sexy enough. Seeing her go off like a bottle rocket from my magic...its so fucking hot I feel like I'm losing my mind. With a guttural growl I rip my fingers from her body and bury my tongue inside of her, lapping up the juice pouring from her body like a starving man. I don't let up, driving every ounce of pleasure from her body until she is whimpering and shivering under me, one limp hand tugging at my hair as she breathlessly begs for mercy. My mouth curves and I give her a few more firm licks before allowing her to breath, tongue darting out to clean the remains of her from my lips while I take in her bemused expression and heaving chest with pride.
~ Shared P.O.V. ~
Lucy was both relieved and disappointed when he pulled away from her, the onslaught of pleasure finally ebbing and allowing her to take the gulps of air she so desperately needed. She had been giving herself orgasms for years, but never like that. Even inside this cave she could swear she saw stars. Basking in the afterglow of the best orgasm she had ever had Lucy barely notices as Natsu crawls back up her body, situating himself between her legs before claiming her lips in a kiss spiced with her own flavor. Wrapping weak arms around his neck she returns his ardor, legs moving to wrap loosely around his waist and earning her another of those sexy growls.
Natsu on the other hand was trying desperately to keep his calm and not tear his way into his mates oh so willing body. Fire races over his skin, heating the space around them and creating a fine sheen of sweat on her delectable body. Having torn his pants away before kissing her he hisses a breath when her legs wrap around him and the sensitive head of his member brushes against wet heat. The sexy catch in her breath tells him that she felt it too and only serves to fan the flames raging in and around him.
With gentle strokes he rubs himself against her opening, the juice coating his head seeming to sear his flesh and driving him mad. Catching her eyes he lowers one hand to align himself and when he speaks his voice is low and husky with need. "Ready Luce?" Her bashful nod is endearing and his eyes soften as he leans down to kiss her gently, hips moving forward in a shallow thrust. Its uncomfortable at first, but Natsu is being gentle and Lucy finds herself easily adjusting to the first few inches of him, hips rising to meet him with each slow motion. When he finally hits her barrier Natsu stills, body screaming to rush but the need to care for Lucy keeping him sane enough to not hurt her. Their eyes lock for a few tense seconds before he slams home, burying himself inside her at the same time as he buries his face into her neck, his groan of pleasure mingling with her sharp hiss of pain.
Keeping still to let her adjust Natsu breathes in her scent, trying to stay calm as her heat pulses around him. After a few moments he rises up and brushes some of that pale golden hair away from her face, tsking at the tears in her eyes and whispering soothing words against her skin while he kisses them away. Shit he hated to hurt her, but he had to admit that knowing he was her first made the pleasure that much better.
Finally he feels her relax beneath him, arms tightening around his neck to signal her readiness for more. Sliding a hand between their bodies his fingers ghost over her clit, the tightening of her walls around his shaft ripping another groan from him. Slowly, keeping their eyes locked he pulls back and watches as surprise flitters over Lucy's face. When her legs tighten and she raises her hips to try and bring him back inside her a chuckle rumbles in his chest, making her blush. "Easy baby. I'm not going anywhere."
The endearment sends a rush of warmth through her and the last bits of tenseness leave her body, replaced quickly by pleasure when Natsu begins a slow thrusting rhythm. That coil in her stomach begins to tighten again and as his pace quickens with each thrust their combined moans fill the cavern, echoing off the walls and creating a sexual symphony. Lucy could feel her body starting to burn, Natsu's flames fanning her own until they are both breathless and aching for release. Lucy's hips grind with each of his thrusts, matching his pace as he pounds them both toward what Lucy knew would be an all consuming orgasm.
The coil tightens painfully before finally snapping and her body convulses. Her scream echoes in his brain, his name falling from her lips over and over again and she chants incoherently while shuddering beneath him. Natsu follows her with a loud roar, the squeezing of her walls around him so good it hurt, milking him of his seed until he can barely breath. Both mages lay there panting, shivers of pleasure wracking their frames and their breathing harsh. Finally, as the flames die down and their breathing no longer comes in pants Natus rolls off of her, arms pulling Lucy onto his chest and cradling her there. Her eyes are dazed when she finally looks up at him, skin flushed a pretty red and her smile so sweet and bashful he cant help but grin.
"Hi." Her voice is slightly hoarse, no doubt from screaming Lucy thought. Not that she minded.
"Hi? Your such a weirdo Luce." The smack to his chest was totally worth seeing her blush brighter and as sleep drags at his mind he pulls her tighter against him. "But your my weirdo."
Her smile is bright enough to rival the stars when she responds. "Yeah."
