"Gods, were Gajeel and I really like that?"
"That's mild. In the begining, you two were always at each other's throats."
"huh. I never realized. Did i really say that I could kill you all? I don't make it easy for people to trust me, do I?"
"No, not really. The anger issues are part of it. Every time someone looks as your mate the wrong way, you get insanely jeleous and threaten to rip their heart out."
"yeah... I like to think that that's the dragon."
"Should we continue?"
"Probably, before Luna gets back and starts chattering away."
Chapter 14:
Everyone was asleep. Natsu checked the bedside clock, Midnight. He stared at the ceiling for a bit, not wanting to have that damn nightmare again. He had lied to Lucy earlier. His nightmares were slightly different from hers. He dreamed that he had lost her. He still had everything and everyone else, but without her it all meant nothing. Such was the bond between a dragon and their mate. When they're gone, the world looses meaning until the dragon dies, or kills themselves. That's why he had to fight so hard, protect her with his life, because it was nothing without her. In his dreams he had to watch her slowly fade away. Over, and over, helpless. He gazed out the window, looking at the glimmering tears of the sky. Looking at the stars always made him think of Lucy, a celestial wizard who smelled of vanila and starlight. He pressed his lips to her temple and pulled her closer.
"I love you, Lucy. My little wierdo." He whispered so quietly that even he could barely hear it.
"Aww, he said that?"
I may have made it more romantic, would Natsu really say that the stars are the glimmering tears of the sky?
"I suppose not..."
He did say the I love you like that, though. And he told me that he was thinking the other stuff.
"That's so sweet of him!"
"Momma! I found it! It took me a while, but i found the flowers that you wanted!"
"I thought that those flowers didn't exis-"
SHHH! Shutup, Lucy! Uh, yeah...so...review, i guess?
