Chapter 14: Bonus Epilogue

Six years later, Lucy is curled up on the couch with her wedding album on her lap to the best of her ability. Next to her is a purring blue tom cat named Happy she's absentmindedly petting with her left hand. He's keeping her company in the meantime while a certain pinkette is out getting lunch.

The blonde turns the page and looks at more photos, recalling the memories fondly. She's at the part where she and Natsu were having their first dance together as married couple. The whole thing was simply magically. Something she could never forget.

Small tears blur her vision and she uses her right hand to wipe them away. She has no reason to be getting so emotional over this. Well, maybe she does.

The cat's ears twitch when the door to the garage opens up, but he doesn't bother lifting his head.

"I'm homeee," the pinkette announces as he walks into the kitchen.

Lucy cranes her neck over and sees the bag in his hands. "Yay, you brought the food!"

He chuckles, heading towards her. "Of course, I did. Ya wouldn't have let me inside if I didn't!"

She laughs. "Maybe."

"Probably." He pecks the top of her golden head with his lips and notices the open album. "Reminiscing already?"

"I had to do something while you were gone. But now that you're here I can eat!" The blonde closes the album and sets it down on the table across from her.

Natsu takes a seat next to his wife and pulls out the white foam boxes from the bag. He pauses. "Wait, do you wanna eat in here?"

She pats her protruding belly before rubbing a hand over it. "I'm fine right where I am."

"Gotcha," he says before continuing the task. After the food is passed out, they dig in.

She's in her third trimester, but more recently she's been having cravings for hot and spicy food. Lucy solely blames the pinkette for the change. She didn't like that kind of food before she became pregnant and thinks the baby is taking after him. She's more than grateful her husband goes out to quench whatever craving she is having. After all, he'd rather do that than carry around a developing baby for nine months inside of him.

"So whatcha wanna do after eating?" Natsu asks after swallowing his mouthful.

"I think I'll squeeze in a nap before the engagement party later."

It took Gray some time to come around with his true feelings before finally asking Juvia to marry him. Gajeel beat him to the punch when he proposed to Levy after the pinkette and blonde married.

"I bet the girls will be excited to see ya," Natsu comments.

She nods. "And I'll be happy to see them later. It's great that we can see our friends on a regular basis. And it helps that we all live kind of close together."

He chuckles. "If ya told me that during our freshman year of college, I probably wouldn't have believed ya!"

The blonde nudges him playfully. "It's all because of you things are the way now. After all, you were the one who suggested that triple date mini golf night."

"And look where we are now," the pinkette muses, looking at his wife and then her belly.

She smiles softly at him. "Somewhere amazing."

A dreamy look comes across his face. "You're amazing."

"You're not so bad yourself," she jokes, and takes a bit of her food.

He makes a face. "Hey!"

Lucy laughs. "I'm only kidding."

Then he looks down at her stomach. "Take notes, kiddo. Don't take after your mommy. She can be a meanie sometimes."

"I wonder where I learned it from…" she scoffs.

"I don't know what you're talking 'bout," Natsu denies casually. Then he leans towards her stomach to stage whisper, "You're mommy is the best though. Daddy's lucky to have her."

She smiles down at him. "I love you, Natsu."

He sits up and kisses her, not minding the spicy taste of her mouth at all. "I love ya too, Luce."
