Chapter 10-friendly
NATSU P.O.V
"Natsu, sleep on the couch!" there. Lucy yells at me again, this time happy is not with me. He flew to fairy hills one minute ago.
"Aw... C'mon Lucy. i wanna sleep on your bed. Your bed is really comfy" and it has your smell. I smile. This is our daily chat. She always tells me to sleep on the couch, but however her effort tomorrow morning, she'll always find me sleep on her bed. Sometimes I purposely hold her. I was such a devil, right?
"Then, I will take the couch" what?
"WHAT?" actually I don't need the bed. All I need is Lucy. I'm addicted of Lucy.
"If you want the bed, then I will take the couch" she says casually and takes her blanket. I jump in front of her. She back away.
"What the hell are you doing?!" she snaps. I just laugh. She titled her head. Waiting for my answer.
"You're not sleeping on the couch. You are sleeping with me. On the bed" I say seriously.
"Eh?" she looks me, like I was the weirdest thing in magnolia.
"What? If there's no you in your bed. It's pointless" her eyes widen and I can see her cheek blush. I make her blush. I smile. Gray said that, if I ever make her blush, that's mean there's the chance that she likes me too. Yes, maybe I have the chance. I see Lucy again, I really hate to see this expression on her face. Why she seems sad. But then I see her slowly smile again.
"Fine. We can sleep together" she smiles happily. I could feel my smile turn into grin this time. "But just tonight" she said again. We walk to the bed and sit down.
We fell silent. And I began to think about tomorrow, how if she rejects me? Is it okay for both us? People say that fall in love with your best friend will destroy your friendship. I'm not the kind that easily believes what people say, but I'll make it sure. If she rejects me, our friendship will be the same. Nothing can destroy our friendship.
"Hey Lucy" I turn my body to see her clearly.
"Hmm?" her face me too. She flashed me her signature smile
"If something happen between us, promise me something." She looks confused. Her smile fades. I began to regret about this. Because of me, she is sad now. But I can't stop.
"Promise me that you still want to stand with me, be my best friend, be my teammate" I can't read her expression. Slowly, she smiles softly.
"Of course, idiot. Didn't you realize that you make me stuck with you? And it seems I can't find the way to run from you." her hand reaches my cheek. I feel my face hotter now. Then she continues. "I promise if something happens between us, no matter what. I will never betray you, wherever I am. I will never betray you. You'll be my best friend and we will be the best teammate ever"
Oh god, I realize now. How much I love her. How much I want her. I pull her into a tight hug. I hear she gasps.
"What are you doing?" she asks me. I release her. Her cheek now as red as erza's hair.
"It's a friendly hug"
"Yes. It's a friendly hug" she repeat."now, let's sleep Natsu. It's 1 am" she lies down pull her blanket to cover her body.
"Yup. Let's sleep" I lie down and hold her. She yelps again.
"W-what are you doing?"
"Hey. This is friendly sleep"
"STUPID! THERE IS NO FRIENDLY SLEEP!" she pushes me. haha, this is lucy anyway.
"We create it, lushiiiiiii..."I pull her and she keeps pushing me.
"AND IF YOUSAID THAT ONE IS FRIENDLY SLEEP, THAN YOURE DOING FRIENDLY RAPE NOW! BACK AWAY, CREEP!" she pushes me hard, but I still defend my area.
"Ha-ha, stop it Lucy... Better lie down peacefully there and sleep, I promise I won't irritate you. You need to sleep" she stops and chuckles. What?
"haha, this one is friendly fights,but... it's more suitable for our friendship style" i smile. Whatever Lucy... As long as you stay by my side... I hug her again. To my surprise, she don't fight. I look her. She smiles
"Beside our fight... I think this one is suitable too, isn't it?" see reach my hair and ruffles it. I nod.
"Yes. This one is suitable too, now let's sleep. Good night , Lucy" she smiles
"Yes, Natsu... good night... don't forget to keep our promise, Kay?" I nod. Lucy's bed is really comfy and Lucy's skin also really soft. She strokes my hair and it makes me really comfortable... my eyes feel really heavy... And I drifted into my sleep.
Normal p.o.v.
"Are you ready, Lucy?" Lucy smiles and nod her head. She glance to her pink haired best friend.
"See you again, Natsu.." turn her head to loke. "Let's go... Loki, Virgo" Loki smiles and nod his head. A bright light appears around them and when it disappears, they are all gone.
The guild door burst open revealing Natsu.
"LUCY!? WHERE IS LUCY?!"
All the guild member looks him, confused.
Makarov closes his eyes, wiping away all his emotion. He need to be strong. He jumps to the guild bars make all the guild members focus on him.
"Listen brat..."
"If you really want to finish this really fast, then I guess you really need to work really hard, Lucy.."
Lucy nods her head "teach me everything, old man".
The celestial king grins widely.
