Chapter 12

After a relaxing shower, I walked into my bedroom to get dressed for the day. When walking in I saw that Natsu was still asleep, so I decided to ignore his presence and just go about my daily routine. This ended in a disaster. While I was getting dressed I felt something wet touch my hip and I freaked out. Turns out Natsu was awake the whole time and here I was in nothing but my thong and bra. He had thought it would be funny to lick at my tattoo while I was bending over to try and put my skirt on.

"NATSU! Why did you think that that was a good idea? What is your infatuation with my tattoo, huh? It's just a little bit of ink that was injected under my skin."

"But its sexy ink, the kind of ink that makes your skin sensitive and so much more fun to nip at." Natsu said in his husky, lust filled morning voice. Suddenly I was on the bed, on my back with Natsu hovering over me. "Although the tattoo may be fun, your lips still taste way better in my opinion." Then his lips were on mine in a flash and he was forcing his tongue through. I quickly melted into the kiss, but I soon thought of something that was very important to me and my hygiene. I pulled away from him as I asked the only question on my mind.

"Natsu, have you brushed your teeth?" He looked at me with wide eyes as the question sat in the air. He suddenly shot off of me and sprinted to the bathroom which left me laying on my bed laughing.

I finished getting dressed. As Natsu got ready and I walked down stairs to get breakfast. I saw Wendy at the dining room table eating a bowl of cereal. I joined her and poured a bowl of cereal for myself and we enjoyed the silence with only the sound of spoons against bowls to break the quiet atmosphere. It was a calming quiet that was comfortable and peaceful.

Once we were done we gave our bowls to a maid and started to make our way upstairs. Before we made it three steps, there was a knock at the front door. We went to see who it was and it was none other than Levy, Erza, Mira, and a crying Juvia.

"Hey guys, what's up? What's wrong with Juvia?" I asked as I opened the door.

"Juvia is a tad upset to find out she can't spend the day stalking Gray. To answer your first question Lu-chan, we are here to take you shopping for your wedding dress. We want to help you with the wedding preparations." Levy said enthusiastically.

"Awe guys that's so sweet, but we haven't even set a date yet."

"That's not what the note from Mrs. Dragneel said, she plainly stated that the wedding would be on July first, your birthday if I am not mistaken." Erza stated in her professional tone.

My future mother in law chose a date for Natsu's and my wedding without consulting us. I'm not mad per say but it is a bit strange.

"Erza don't go putting thoughts into her head. Lucy the note said she was planning for the date to be around that time, seeing as you will be 18 by then. Erza was just being silly!" Mira explained, Erza shouldn't joke, it just makes everything really complicated, I thought as I watched all the girls walk into the house with no regard for my pale face and wide eyes. "So Lu-chan, have you chosen a maid of honor yet? Or your bridesmaids, or flower girl?" Levy started spilling out question after question at me until I was dizzy, Wendy had already headed upstairs to brush her teeth by now, so I was alone with the girls.

*CRASH*!

"NATSU, THAT'S MINE GIVE IT BACK! JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE ALWAYS BROKE DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN GO AROUND STEALING MY MONEY FROM MY PIGGY BANK! UGH!" Wendy screamed as she came bounding down the stairs chasing Natsu who was holding a 50 dollar bill in his hands.

"Awe, come on Wen it's just a measly 50 bucks. Go as mom and dad for a hundred and I'm sure they would give it to you!" Natsu screamed as Wendy ran over to me and explained what happened. She said that after she left me she headed up to her room so that she could wake up Carla, when she entered she saw Natsu pulling one of her 50s out of her piggy bank. She immediately yelled at him and tried to get it back. Because of her shortness she was unable to reach, but the commotion had awoken Carla who was walking to the door at the same time Natsu started to sprint away. He had tripped over Carla and slammed into a wall causing the crash and then she chased him downstairs and now here we are.

I huffed at what a nuisance this was and, as Natsu ran back into the living room thinking Wendy was still chasing him, I stopped Natsu. "Natsu give Wendy back her money, it's not your so you have no business using it." I scolded him as he pouted. He gave the money back to Wendy and then noticed that the girls were there. "Hey, when did they get here?" He questioned with a confused aura about him. "About 10 minutes ago, they want to help with wedding planning." I answered his question.

"Yep, and we are stealing Lucy from you to go wedding shopping. Bye!" Levy exclaimed as she dragged me out the door.
