I am too lazy to type out the last thing so just do me a favor and go back and read it please and thank you :)
Levy decided to stay at my house for the time being incase something went wrong with the spell. Loki was in his bed and Gray went home.
It's 3:47 AM and so far I have remember things from up to 7 weeks ago, give or take, so it should be coming back to me any minute now. To distract me until the memory came I figured I would continue with one of my stories.
I was chewing my pencil as another memory hit me: Levy borrowed a headband. Nope. Not what I was hoping for but almost. She borrowed it a couple days after the party.
I sighed and rubbed my eyes. I wasn't getting much writing done so I might as well go to sleep.
As I got ready for bed I let my mind wander to what would happen if and when I go public with the pregnancy. Obviously everyone would understand but there would be questions; questions I don't know how to answer.
I laid on my back staring at the ceiling and ran through the list of nearly every male wizard in the guild: Natsu, Gray, Elfman, Laxus, Gajeel, Freed, Bickslow, Droy, Jet, Alzack, Mest, Max, Nab, Reedus, Vijeeter, Warren, and Loki.
If you remove the ones that I haven't seen, are highly unlikely, or impossible then it would be narrowed down to Natsu, Gray, Elfman, Laxus, Gajeel, Freed, Bickslow, Mest and Loki.
Natsu? Maybe.
Gray? Not sure but maybe although Julia would kill me.
Elfman? Mavis I hope not but he's obsessed with Ever so scratch.
Laxus? Hope not either.
Gajeel? No, he wasn't there and I wouldn't want to do that to Levy so scratch him out.
Freed? He wouldn't do that, he would probably feel guilty for betraying Laxus. Scratch.
Bickslow? Yeah no. Scratch.
Mest/Doranbolt or whatever? Naah. Scratch.
Loki? Yeah he wishes. Literally, but I don't thing that possible so scratch.
So then that leaves Natsu, Gray, and Laxus.
I'd hate to admit it but the chances are down to two, excluding Gray for obvious reasons, and those two aren't very promising.
It was 9:30 AM and everyone was at my house and seated in my livingroom, everyone being Loki, Gray, Erza, Gajeel, Lily, Levy, Wendy and Carla. Both Carla and Panther Lily were let in on the secret since Wendy and Gajeel didn't want to hide anything from them. The memory hasn't shown itself yet but I know it will come any minute now.
It was officially down to just Natsu, I explained to the group about my suspicions and asked about Laxus but Erza said that Laxus left early with the Thunder Legion in tow.
"Soo..." I fidgeted, "Anyone have any ideas on how to break it to Natsu? Y'know, if it's actually him?"
"I think it would be best if we take him out of town." Carla, in her human form, suggested.
"Yeah!" Wendy agreed. "It would be safer if we took him to the field."
"That's a good idea." Erza with her ever present cake. "That way he wouldn't destroy the guild nor would he harm anyone in Magnolia."
Gray, who was leaning on the wall with his arms crossed, scoffed. "Sure he wouldn't hurt anyone, except for maybe us!"
"I still think it would be a good idea." Levy liked the plan and Gajeel of course agreed with her.
Panther Lily sided with Gajeel and Loki shrugged.
"It also gives me more freedom to split his thick skull in half."
Well that explains why we went on the weapon shopping spree a while ago.
"Okaay then!" I clapped my hands together. "I guess we'll take him to the field. As soon as I know for sure whether or not it's him I'll tell him to meet us at the field and-" I was interrupted by a knock on my door.
"Finally!" I got up and made my way to door. "It's probably the pizza guy!" I hurried and opened the door. "I'm starvi-"
It wasn't the pizza guy. It was Natsu and Happy.
Shit.
"Heey guys.." I said slowly. "What's up?" I gave a nervous smile.
Natsu and Happy looked past me and saw that everyone was here.
"Lucy...?" Natsu had his eyebrows scrunched up.
Happy noticed that both Carla and Panther Lily were present.
"What are you guys doing here?" I maintained my smile.
"Well... we were walking by and I could smell that everyone was here." He looked at Happy. "So we wanted to see what was going on.
"Oh uh." I started rubbing my nails together, a nervous habit I picked up. "Well you see... we just-" I stopped.
.
The memory.
It chose this exact moment to surface.
.
"You alright?" I could hear Natsu ask.
You alright? Those words echoed in my head, they struck a chord in the memory.
.
Natsu entered my room through the window and saw me sitting on my bed, wondering how I got here.
"You alright Lucy?" He slurred. He had had one too many fire whiskeys. I could relate, minus the fire.
"Maaaybe?" I said in the form of a question. Natsu got in my bed face first and hugged my pillow.
"Lucy?"
"Lucy." He mumbled.
I turned to look at him and was surprised at how adorable he looked cuddling with my pillow. "Yeah?" I asked slowly.
"Your bed is comfy." He sighed happily and flipped onto his back.
"I need to get a bed like this." He smiled and I stared at him for a good second.
"Natsu," I said dreamily. "you're really cute."
He looked surprised at that and gave me a goofy smile. "Betcha wish you could get with me huh?"
Okaay wasn't expecting that.
I would have called him out on it but in my drunk, dreamy state I couldn't bring myself to care.
I laid down facing him and started messing with his hair.
"What are you doing?" He said sleepily with his eyes closed.
"Wishing I could get with you." I responded without thinking.
He opened his eyes and looked at me.
"Okay."
And I threw myself at him.
.
.
I looked at Natsu, who was confused as to why I dazed out, and said the first thing that came to mind in a disbelieving tone.
"I fucking threw myself at you."
Okaay I actually didn't know who I wanted the father so those lists in the beginning was actually me deciding and I narrowed it down. I was going to add in Sting and Rogue but I figured I could add that in another fanfic if I chose to make another one. Although I highly doubt that would come anytime soon.
I should have revealed it sooner but I'm a procrastinator.
It's been so long I actually had to go back and read my story and let me just say, I was funny as hell in this story. But it's been a while and my writing isn't that good at the moment, it lacked that umf but, you work with whatchu got.
I'm going to try to continue my COD fic after I post this chapter and try to go back and forth.
Nah who am I kidding I don't have the endurance for that. But i'll try. Okaay who actually reads this?
Anyway.
Deuces.
