A/N: Haven't written for Fairy Tail in a while I realized o.o I guess you could say my muse was taking a break and was too stubborn to give me any new ideas. But as of now, my muse has finally relented and is slowly (very slowly) handing me some inspiration!

~Let Me Touch Them!~

NaLu

Rated: T+

"C'mon Luce, just let me touch them!" Natsu practically whines, fingers flexing in her direction for emphasis. The blonde summoner only frowns in response, crossing her arms over her ample chest in defiance.

"No! The last time I let you touch them you nearly set them on fire!" She points an accusing finger in his direction. "I've still got burn marks I'll have you know!"

"Oh don't be such a wuss," Natsu replies, scowling at the girl unhappily. "It'll only be for a quick second—just let me get a good feel!"

"No!" she yells almost instantly.

Natsu rolls his eyes in irritation. "Luce! Seriously?"

Lucy puffs out her cheeks, her hands falling to her side and resting on her hips. "No, seriously."

The pair sat in the middle of the guild, unaware that their loud discussion was quickly drawing attention. Curious eyes trailed over towards the pair as guild members sitting nearby leaned towards them to get a better listen.

"Hey, do you know what those two are talking about?" Gray whispers in the Erza's ear, who pointedly shakes her head in denial. Wendy, who is sitting with Carla not too far off, also shakes her head.

"No," the swordwoman replies, "but I am rather curious as to what the topic of their discussion is."

"Yeah no kidding," Gray snorts, taking a swig of his drink with a loud gulp, "if I didn't know any better it'd sound like Natsu's trying to copp a feel, y'know what I mean?"

Erza nearly chokes on her own drink. "I—I wasn't aware that Natsu and Lucy's relationship had advanced so far…!"

Wendy, of course, does not quite get it and looks over at Carla and asks, "What is Natsu trying to do to Lucy?" Carla, not wanting to contaminate her Dragon Slayer's mind, only waves it off with a slight blush.

"It's nothing you need to worry about, Wendy," Carla says simply.

"Oh," Wendy says, still quite confused but leaves it at that.

"Err right," Gray says, coughing nervously, "I mean that's what it sounds like I didn't actually mean—"In the midst of Gray's feeble attempts to disperse the start of a rumor, he's suddenly interrupted by a rather angry Natsu.

"Like I said, why is it such a big deal! You're being stingy Luce, stingy I tell you!" Natsu shouts. Out of frustration, the fire Dragon Slayer slams a hand down onto the wooden table with such force the table shakes, knocking over a few mugs and plates.

"My beer!" Wakaba exclaims in despair, turning to glare at the fighting pair. "Hey! Take your flirting outside you tw—"

"Shut it!" Shouts Natsu alongside Lucy's own shout of, "Stay out of this!" Before they quickly turn their attention back on each other.

"Err…sorry?" Wakaba gulps nervously, slowing backing down into his seat. He's silently consoled by a cackling Cana and Macao.

Lucy turns to glare at her partner, thin brows furrowed into a deep scowl and bottom lip protruding out into a half-scowl. "N.O. NO! How many times do I have to tell you? I'm not letting you touch them!"

"And why the hell not?! It's not like I haven't touched them before!"

Erza's jaw practically drops while Gray stops mid strip, his hands stopping mid zip. Neither is prepared for Natsu's statement and both mages exchange a horrified glance.

"What world am I living in? This is Earthland…right?" Gray breathes, all too puzzled by the Dragon Slayer and Celestial mage. What in the world was happening to their guild? No, more importantly what was happening to those two? Did he miss something or were they…talking about Natsu touching her breasts?

Lucy's breasts! Just the thought of his blonde guild mate's assets caused the ice-make mage to blush even harder.

Wendy stares, still confused more than anything and turns to Gray for answers. "What's Natsu trying to touch and why does it involve Lucy?"

"Well uh…" the raven haired mage stutters, "I-It's uh..." Quickly, he turns his attention to Happy, who, up until that point, had been enjoying a nice fish at the end of the table, Gray leaned in towards the Exceed with a curiosity.

"Hey do you know what they're shouting about?" Gray asks, his tone of voice being a cross between a shout and a hiss. Happy swallows the end of the fish and lets out a loud burp before turning towards the Ice-Make Mage.

"Aye! They've been at it since they left Lucy's apartment!" The Exceed replies.

"Really?" Gray asks, now more interested than before. "What does he mean by t-touching?"

Beside him Erza and Wendy mutely nod. A slightly scandalized expression evident on the stern woman's face while little Wendy wore a more puzzled, if not a little curious expression.

"Hmm," Happy pauses, arms crossed, "Well it's a long story…."

A loud bang is heard from behind, causing the Exceed and two mages to turn their attention back to a now exasperated Lucy and an even more frustrated Natsu.

"Just quit it will you?! Why do you want to touch them so badly?!" Lucy snaps, hands firmly planted on the wooden table. She was leaning towards Natsu, her face only but a few meters away from his. Natsu, being the stubborn fool that he was pushed even further, their noses practically touching.

"Why can't you just be a little generous here? I thought sharing was caring!" Natsu points directly at her, face determined.

Lucy blushes, causing the rest of the guild members listening in to lean even further, wide eyed and jaws dropped.

"Not when it comes to things like that! They're not exactly things I can just share with anyone you know!" she says just as determined.

"But I'm not just anyone—I'm your partner! Your best friend! I thought that counted for something?"

"Not this! This is completely different! And I let you touch them yesterday!"

"She's right Natsu, you have to take things slow," Mirajane adds in, putting a hand to his face. Gray is surprised to see her standing next to him. "Oh, hello Gray. Isn't this exciting?"

Gray isn't all too surprised to see pure excitement oozing out of the take-over mage's face. Mirajane was definitely getting a kick out of this.

"What's exciting? Can't anyone tell me what's going on?" Wendy asks, not at all liking the feeling of being left out. Natsu continues on, not really paying heed to anyone else as his scowl deepens.

"Yeah for five seconds!" Natsu exclaims, pointing at the Celestial Mage in accusation, "That isn't exactly enough time Luce, you can't just cut a guy off like that in the middle of—"Natsu is cut-off by an even angrier Lucy.

Lucy appears offended, ripping herself away from him as if he had physically wounded her. "Excuse me? If I hadn't you would've burnt them right off you jerk!"

"As if! I wouldn't be that rough!" Natsu counters.

Her blush only deepens. "Wha—you had better not be!"

"Then stop whining and let me touch them!" With this his hands lifts up, once more his fingers flex as if in a grabbing motion. "C'mon…just for a minute!"

"No!" Lucy stubbornly answers.

"Luce you're being a little ridiculous here!"

"M-Me? Try you! Why're you so obsessed with this?"

"Kind of hard not to be, they're kind of just there Luce," Natsu says with a deadpan expression. "I can't not see them, especially when they're sticking out like that!"

A few of the male guild members spit out their drinks but can't help but agree or at least, agree to what they think Natsu may be referring to.

Lucy's blush deepens. "That's—then stop looking! And they don't stick out! Don't say it like that it's gross!"

"Like what? Sticking out? Stop being such a girl!"

Lucy attempts to back away, only to have Natsu move forward. "In case you've forgotten I happen to be a girl! And stop that…squeezing thing you're doing! Don't you dare touch me! Natsu…no!"

"Luce! C'mon! Don't be difficult!" Natsu growls in exasperation. Despite Lucy's warning, he leans further towards her.

"I said no!" Lucy practically seethes. "If you take another step I'll call out…I'll call out Loke!"

"Hah! Like Loke could stop me!" Natsu bats away at the idea. As if he was afraid of Loke, of all people!

"Natsu, stop! Don't you dare…!" Lucy shouts, growing somewhat nervous at the sheer determination lighting up in Natsu's dark eyes. "I told you to stop squeezing your hands like that you freak!"

All the while, Gray couldn't help but notice the all too silent Erza (which was never a good thing). He and Wendy nearly jump out of their skins when they steal a glance at the armored woman. Erza sat in her spot, shoulders practically shaking and a dark expression growing on her face.

"Y-You okay there, Erza?" Gray hesitantly asks, backing away as much as he could.

"Oh my, what's the matter dear?" Mirajane asks, but amused all the same.

"Th-This…!" Erza says shakily, bolting up from her spot.

"This…?" Gray repeats after her, gulping nervously.

Finally, the armored woman snaps and shouts, "THIS HAS GOT TO STOP!"

Suddenly, all eyes fall onto Erza. Even Natsu and Lucy, who stopped mid-fight to turn their heads back at her, are surprised at the redheaded woman's sudden outburst.

"What's up with you Erza?" Natsu ignorantly asks. His hands are still squeezing the air in Lucy's direction but his eyes are now on the redheaded woman. Natsu isn't all too prepared for Erza to stomp her way over to him and jab an armored finger in his direction. He flinches at the finger, as if it had actually wounded him.

"Natsu! I don't remember raising such a scandalous boy!" Erza shouts, "when a girl says no she means no!" By the end of it Erza's nearly out of breath and Natsu could swear she was blushing.

"Sc-Scandalous?" Natsu stammers, eyes wide with confusion. "What the hell…?"

"A-A man shouldn't touch a woman's br-breasts until they get married!" She says in all seriousness, eyes aflame at the very thought of such indecency. In the background, Carla can be seen nodding her head in agreement while a still confused Wendy claps in admiration (if anything, at the woman's strong conviction).

For a moment, both Natsu and Lucy could only stare in silence at the sudden declaration. Their eyes went blank and their jaws dropped. Finally, Natsu let out a loud, "Whaaaaaat are you talking about?! Marriage? Breasts?!"

"H-How did my breasts get involved in the conversation?!" Lucy practically screeches, covering them with her arms in humiliation. "And who says I was marrying Natsu?!"

At this, Natsu turns on her. "Wait, why can't you marry me?! You got a problem with that idea?"

Lucy glares. Was he even listening to himself talk? "Th-That's not important right now!"

"Fine, we'll talk about it later," he grumbles, turning his attention back to Erza. "In any case…what're you talking about?"

"Weren't you two arguing about him," Gray says as he points at the two of them, "touching your...boobs?" Gray blushes ever so slightly at the mention of Lucy's 'boobs' causing a rather jealous Juvia to glare at the blonde summoner.

Happy snickers at this. "Gray's a peeeerverrt!" Gray, in response, smacks the Exceed on the head.

Wendy lets out a loud, "E-Eh?! That's what this is about?!"

"No! It is not!" Lucy answers instantly, turning even redder. "We were talking about my hair! My hair!" With this, she points at her low pigtails vigorously.

"Y-Your hair?" Mirajane asks.

"Yeah, they look soft," Natsu replies, crossing his arms.

Lucy smacks him on the arm, eyes narrow. "It's because you say things like that people misunderstand!"

Natsu turns to glare at her again. "If you weren't so stubborn none of this would've happened in the first place!"

"Don't you blame this on me!"

"Well I am blaming it on you!"

Once more, the two entered into a battle of wills resulting in the rest of the guild to ignore them completely, already tired of their argument (mainly because, no it did not involve Lucy's breasts).

"What a let down," Mirajane says, sighing dejectedly.

"Not surprised it was about something stupid," Gray says with a wave of a hand, but glares at Happy who begins to snicker once again.

"N-Natsu and Lucy really are grown up, huh Carla?" Wendy says with a renewed admiration for the two. Carla decides to let her believe this newfound information, even if the idea itself was false.

Suddenly, Natsu quiets down and, unbeknownst to anyone other than Lucy, leans in and whispers, "Since they brought it up…you think I could touch your boobs too?"

A dark shade of crimson stains Lucy's face.

"W-What?!" she sputters in disbelief.

But before she can ask 'why' Lucy is surprised (or not) when Natsu lifts his hands up and repeats the squeezing motion he had down earlier. This, of course, results in Lucy connecting a palm across the Dragon Slayer's cheek with a loud 'smack' before storming out of the guild's doors.
