Quick update! This is the longest chapter. I've been writing all night *yawn* please remember to R&R!
"She just broke it?" Cana asked.
"Yep," I said. "Gray threatened to freeze her head and that was that."
"Impressive," Erza said.
"Levy? Are you ok?" I asked, noticing she looked a bit sad.
"Not really," she said. "I'm worried about Mirajane."
"We all are," I said putting my hand on her shoulder. "I'm sure she just went home."
"How do you know?" Levy asked.
"Well..." I said. "Let's ask. Elfman!" I called.
He came walking over.
"Hi Lucy," he said. "Can I help you?"
"Actually, yes. Have you seen Mirajane?"
"No, and we were supposed to go to church today."
"Ok," I said.
Elfman turned around and walked away.
"See," Levy said.
"Well we can look for her today. Wait... no, I can't."
"Why not?" Juvia asked.
"I want to go see Natsu before anything else happens."
"But-" Levy began.
"Shut up!" Cana exclaimed. "Let her go with Natsu."
"I partially thank you Cana," I said.
"Well if you're going to leave, why not leave now?" Cana asked.
"Sure," I said.
xXx
I knocked on Natsu's door, waiting for it to open. To my surprise, Happy opened it. He had a pot on his head and what looked like armor.
"Lucy!" he exclaimed.
"Happy?"
"N-natsu's being wierd."
I laughed and said, "He's fine now."
"How do you know?"
I remembered when Levy said those words to me. I had been wrong. But not now.
"I was there," I said, walking into the house.
"You were?" Happy asked, circling around me.
"Yep!" I exclaimed. "Have you seen Natsu?"
"He's under his bed."
"And you didn't leave the house?" I asked.
"Where would I go?"
"Right."
"Natsu!" Happy yelled.
Natsu rolled out from under the bed.
"Yes?" he said. "Lucy!"
His eyes popped out of his head when he saw me.
"Natsu!" I exclaimed.
The grieving was over. I ran to him and gave him a hug.
"Listen," I said, "we've never gone somewhere together yet. I think we should do something before anything else happens."
"S-sure," he said. "Where do you wanna go?"
"I was thinking we could go the beach."
I never actually went with Gray, even though he asked. I thought it would be fun.
"Ok," Natsu said grinning. "I'll be at your house Luigi."
"Don't think I won't still kill you if you break into my home! And what is with this Luigi thing?"
"Well let's see. What do you like better? Luigi or Linguini?"
"Lucy!" I screamed. "I like Lucy!"
"Luigi it is."
"Call me that one more time and I'll kill you!" I screamed at him.
"She's scary!" Happy exclaimed.
"What did you just say?"
Happy went flying out of the window.
"Ok, Lucy."
"Well... bye."
I stopped at the guild house to see if anyone found saw Natsu.
"No," Loke said. "But he said he was going to your house."
Maybe I can see how he gets in!
"Ok, thanks!" I said running out of the guild house.
"What, no thank you kiss?" Loke screamed.
"I'll give you a thank you punch!"
"I'm good."
xXx
I got home to see Natsu, hanging out the window.
"What the heck!" I exclaimed. "My window was closed!"
Normally I'd push him and let him fall. Since we were dating, I didn't.
"Natsu! Why are you in my house?" I screamed.
"I told you I was coming."
"I'm gonna smack you!"
"No you won't," Natsu dared to say.
"What?"
"I know why you let me in."
I blushed and said, "If I pushed you you'd probably break your scull!"
"Sure Luigi."
"Natsu, do I need to remind you what I said earlier," I said in a fake calm voice.
"N-no!" Natsu said.
"Then call me Lucy!" I yelled. "Now leave so I can change!"
"Why can't I stay?"
"Because then, you'd be a Loke."
Or a Gray for that matter.
"Alright, alright. I'm going."
I watched Natsu leave so I could lock the door. Then I took out my phone and called Levy.
"Hi Levy," I said. "I need you to come over."
"Why?" Levy asked.
"I don't know what to wear!"
xXx
Natsu's POV
I waited outside Lucy's door, waiting for her to finish... whatever she was doing. I was wearing black and orange swim trunks. When the door opened, Levy came out.
"Levy?" I said.
"Yeah, I was helping Lucy," she said.
Lucy walked out behind her. She was wearing a sky blue and white bathing suit cover.
"Ready to go?" she asked.
"Y-yeah," I said. "You look-"
"Bye Lucy," Levy said.
"What were you gonna say?"
"Nothing," I said.
I completly forgot what I was about to say.
xXx
Lucy took off her cover, revealing a sky blue bikini.
"Wow!" she exclaimed when we got to the beach. "I'm gonna go get icecream. Want some?"
I gave her a what-do-you-think look.
"Oh yeah, you're not a fan of cold stuff," she said.
She was probably thinking of Gray when she said it.
"Be right back," she said running off.
I looked back as someone put their hand on my shoulder.
"Here to surf?" the guy asked.
"No," I said.
I backed into a surf board and knocked the others behind it down like dominoes.
"Sorry," I said, picking them up.
"Ah, not much of a surfer," the guy said. "Or a getting weter," he muttered.
Did he just say what I... no. Probably not.
"I'm guessing you surf," I said.
"Yeah. I'm competing in the competition. I've never lost. This week is the couples competition.
"Never lost eh," I said under my breath.
"Is that your girl?"
"Yeah."
"Cute."
I tried not to lose my tempur at that. I didn't want to ruin this date for Lucy.
"Too bad you're not competing. I'd have another person to beat."
I'm starting to like Gray better than this guy.
"What?" I said.
"You don't think you could actually beat me, do you?"
"Oh I know I can beat you!" I yelled.
"Ha! With that weak girl of yours?"
"What did you say," I growled.
"I called your girl weak," he said evily grining. "You can't get me back for that unless you were to beat me in the competition."
"Lucy!" I yelled. "This guy called you weak!"
"He said what?" Lucy screamed back to me.
She ran right over to us.
"What did you call me?" she screamed, scaring him half to death.
"Are you dating a girl or a demon?" the guy said sounding freaked out.
"Why you son of a-"
I put my hand over her mouth. I feel like that's been said before. (does Kyoko come to mind when you hear that?)
"We'll beat you in the competition!" I exclaimed.
A girl came running up to him.
"Hi Tadashi!" she said. "Who's this."
I took my hand off of Lucy's mouth.
"The person whose about to beat you two!" I yelled.
"Not likely but I like a competition," she said. "Good luck!"
The girl pulled her date away.
"Umm... Natsu, you can't surf."
"How do you know?"
"Natsu, come on."
"Well... fine!"
"Grab the surf boards and come on!" Lucy ordered.
xXx
Lucy's POV
"L-lucy," Natsu said. said. "I'm getting motion sickness."
"This makes you sick?" I said.
"23 seconds into the competition," the announcer (I think thats what they're called) said.
I looked at Natsu who was trying to balance. His cheeks were forced out by... the food he ate earlier (trying not to be disgusting here).
"You'll be fine," I said.
"Is that guy... vomiting?" the announcer said. "I think he's gonna fall!"
"Shut up!" Natsu yelled.
He quickly put his hand back over his mouth. Tahashi began to laugh.
"You dare challenge me?" he said.
"Keep in mind, only one needs to be standing," I said.
"L-lucy?" Natsu said. "You can surf?"
"Well I used to but-"
"Then I can leave!"
"Natsu, wait!" I called.
"What's this?" the announcer said. "One of the contestants seems to be... hugging his surf board. Now he's on shore. One down!"
xXx
"Two contestants left," the announcer said.
"I must admit," Tadashi said, "you're better than I expected. But you're still going to lose."
He took a celestial key out. I don't have mine. A huge wave knocked the key out of his hand.
"No fair!" he exclaimed.
I had an idea.
"Haaapppyyy!" I called.
"Why are you calling Happy?" Natsu asked.
"Just wait."
Happy jr. flew in front of me.
"Natsu," I called to him, trying to balance. "This is Happy jr. Happy, go fly around his head."
He did as he was told, knocking Tadashi off.
"And the winner is... Lucy Heartphilia!" the annoncer said.
Everyone started cheering.
"We have a new champion! Lucy Heartphilia and Natsu Dragneel get the trophe."
xXx
After we recieved our trophies and watch Tadashi scream like a girl and cry, Natsu offered to take us to a fancy resturant.
"Are you sure Natsu?" I asked. "You can't eat like you normally do in a fancy resturant."
"I have a surprise for you so we need to eat at a fancy resturant," he casually. said.
A surprise?
"What is it?" I asked.
"I said it's a surprise," he said. "If I told you it wouldn't be as surprising."
xXx
When we were inside, I didn't know what the name of the resturant was. I was too excited to know. Should I ask what it is, or will he tell me himself.
"Natsu, can you order for me?" I asked.
"Sure why?" Natsu asked.
"I'll be right back."
I went into the restroom and pulled out my phone. I called Levy with it.
"Hi, Levy?" I said. "I need you to bring one of my dresses..."
I asked her to bring one of my dresses and she said she'd come right away. She happened to be by my house. I walked back to the table with Natsu in my blue bathing suit cover.
"Back," I said sitting down.
The waitress had come back with our food. Natsu somehow ordered spaghetti. I don't think they even have that on the menu. Hmm... I've never been to Italy.
"So... Lucy," Natsu said. "I wanted to give you-"
"Hold that thought," I said as I saw Levy walk into the door.
xXx
"So... I wanted to give you this," Natsu said pulling at small velvet box. It had a purple ribbon.
He opened it up, revealing a gold ring.
"N-Natsu..." I said. "I-Is that real gold?"
"Yeah, I saved up."
"What's it for?" I asked.
"It's a promise ring," he said grinning.
"But... Natsu, we've only had one date!"
"I know but, I want to make it offical."
"Already?"
"Yes!"
I smiled and got up to give Natsu a hug. He slid the gold ring onto my finger.
"Thank you!"
xXx
Natsu walked me home in the rain.
"Stupid rain!" I exclaimed. "I wouldn't be surprised if the yellow dripped off my dress!"
"Does rain have an effect on Juvia?" Natsu asked.
"I don't know, probably."
"Maybe she can control the rain."
"No she can't."
"I think she can."
"No I'm pretty sure she can't!"
"Yes she can!"
"No she-"
Natsu, out of no where, caressed me as his lips captured mine. In his warm embrace, the rain had no effect.
