Dislcaimer : I DO NOT OWN FAIRY TAIL. IT'S BELONG TO HIRO MASHIMA
It's lunch time and Lucy's walking to the rooftop to catch up with her friends, when she saw someone she knew. She tilts her had, wondering where that someone is going to. She decides to follow him.
Natsu sits down on the school yard's green grass and sighs.
"Why are you sighing?"
Natsu turns his head and he sees Lucy. The blonde girl is looking at him with smile, her hands are holding her lunchbox.
"Hey there." Natsu says hello. "Why are you here?"
"You're replying me with a question?" Lucy chuckles.
Natsu grins. He then pats his side. "Here, sit here."
Lucy walks closer and sits beside him.
"Why aren't you with the others?" Natsu asks.
"Same goes for you." Lucy says.
"I ask first." Natsu grins.
Lucy rolls her eyes. "I was about to walk upstairs when I saw you. I felt curious as you didn't go to the rooftop. So I followed you here. Besides, I don't think I wanted to go to the rooftop anyway."
"Why?" Natsu asks.
Lucy sighs. "I think it's better I don't eat there. Besides, I'm not hungry."
"Are you avoiding someone?" Natsu asks.
Lucy laughs. "Since when you connected so fast?" she teases.
"I'm not that slow connected!" Natsu protests.
Lucy laughs again. "Yeah, yeah, you hit the spot."
"Really?" Natsu asks. "Who?"
Lucy stops laughing and stares at the grass. It's a long silence for both of them, although it's just two minutes silence.
"If you don't want to say, I won't make you." Natsu says.
Lucy smiles and shakes her head. "Nah," she says. "it's nothing actually. Not a big deal. I guess I just need some space."
"What for?" Natsu asks.
Lucy shrugs. "Things." she replies softly.
Natsu looks at the blonde and smiles. "What kind of shampoo did you use?"
"Huh?" Lucy turns to Natsu and asks confusedly.
"Answer me." Natsu hums.
"Why should I?"
"It's not a difficult question, is it?" Natsu asks back.
"No, but..."
"Is it apple?"
"Huh?"
"Your shampoo's smell." Natsu chuckles.
"Why does this even matter to you?"
"Because I like the way your hair smelled." Natsu smiles softly.
Lucy blinks then takes some strands of her hair and sniffs it.
"You can smell it?"
"I have a pretty good nose," Natsu says proudly and taps his nose. "is it really apple?"
"No, it's Chrysanthemum." Lucy answers.
"What is that?" Natsu asks.
"It's a flower." Lucy chuckles.
"It smells really good." Natsu takes some Lucy's hair in his hand and leans his body forward. He sniffs the smell and breathes it in.
"Are you heaving a headache or something? Or maybe you tripped and destroyed part of your brain?" Lucy teases. "Or is there anything wrong between you and Lisanna?"
Natsu keeps breathing in Lucy's hair's scent. "Why did you ask?"
"Cause you seemed not normal." Lucy says.
Natsu laughs. He lets go off Lucy's hair.
"I guess I hit the spot." Lucy mumbles.
"I'm not fighting with Lisanna, if that's what you mean." Natsu answers.
"Doesn't seem like that to me." Lucy mumbles. "Why is Lisanna so mad with you this morning?" Lucy asks.
Natsu shrugs. "How should I know?"
"You're her childhood friend."
"Still doesn't change the fact that she's a girl and I don't understand how girls think."
"Why didn't you call her last Saturday?" Lucy asks.
"Why?"
"She was so pissed off, you know," Lucy says. "she was so worried about you and you didn't call her at all last Saturday and yesterday."
"Should I call her?"
"Why didn't you?"
Natsu sighs. "I thought she still dead drunk. I heard that you need plenty of sleep and rest when you drunk."
"That's why you didn't call her?" Lucy asks to confirm.
"I knew she hate when her sleep is disturbed. I surely didn't want to get one of her tantrums so I didn't call her." Natsu answers.
"I see." Lucy mumbles.
"I didn't know this is the reason she was so upset." Natsu sighs.
"What's with the sigh?" Lucy chuckles. "If you're feeling so bad about it, just go to her and apologize."
"It's not that." Natsu says.
"So?"
He sighs again. "I don't know... I just... I think she's... being someone else lately."
"What do you mean by that?" Lucy asks.
"Well, I think... She's being way too protective on me."
Lucy blinks then laughs. "Oh my!" she says between laughs. "You think she's protective?"
"Don't laugh at me." Natsu grumbles. "Well, don't you?"
Lucy laughs again. "Gosh, you're so funny. How come a girl become so protective towards her boyfriend? Not that it's impossible, but-"
"Lisanna is not my girlfriend!" Natsu protests.
"Oh well, soon to be." Lucy chuckles. "Natsu, she's just scared on the fact that she might lose you."
"She won't lose me." Natsu protests again. "I won't going anywhere."
"I mean your feelings, stupid!" Lucy says. "Your heart! Lisanna's scared on the fact that you might fall in love with someone else."
Natsu gasps and blushes.
"See?" Lucy teases. "She scared that you would blush towards someone else, other than her. She's so totally in love with you, that's why she protects you. That's why she became the closest girl to you."
Natsu doesn't say a thing at stares at the grass.
"Why won't you confess to her?" Lucy asks. "Not that I want to butt in your business."
Natsu doesn't say anything and Lucy keeps looking at him. After a long four minutes pure silence, Natsu opens his mouth.
"Because..."
TENG TENG TENG~
"Oh man, lunch break is over!" Lucy grumbles. "Should we go back now? You can finish whatever you wanted to say earlier anytime."
Natsu grins and stands up. "Sure, sure."
Lucy smiles and stands up. Then the two of them walk together to their class. Natsu is walking behind Lucy, and she didn't know that the pinky haired boy is smiling.
"Yeah, I'll finish what I wanted to say sometime later." Natsu murmurs.
The wind is gently blowing, eager to see what's going to happen.
Done !

In any case, I'm waiting for the reviews !
