It seems I'm running out of things to say for these authors notes. Well anyway I'm not sure on this chapter...
After doing what he needed to back at the House Natsu had headed back to the guild. It had taken him longer than he wanted to, mainly because he accidentally fell asleep at the house and he had been at the guild for about an hour when he noticed that him and Lucy should be getting home soon. "Hey Luce you ready to go?" Natsu asks wrapping his arms around her waist in the middle of the guild.
"Hmm." She smiles at the feeling of his warmth. "Sure let's go. Hey Juvia Erza do you mind doing that now?" She asks the two women who nod, happy to be helping their friend with whatever it was that she needed.
"I'll meet you back home Jellal." Erza smiles kissing him lightly while running her hand over the tattoo like mark under his right eye.
"I'll wait her for ya Juvia." Grey smiles kissing her cheek, while she like always blushes at the contact..
"Luce you okay? You seem wobbly?" Natsu asks raising an eyebrow as the four get out of the guild.
"Yeah I just drank one more than I normally do." She frowns as she starts falling only to be caught by Natsu's arm wrapping around her. "Sorry." She frowns biting her thumb, hoping that Natsu wasn't angry at her for drinking a little more than she should've.
"It's fine I'll carry you." He smiles as he sets her on his back with his hands holding onto her ass supporting her.
"Really? Do you really need to grope my ass?" She whispers into his ear only getting smirk and a squeeze to her ass in response.
After a few minutes of silence, Natsu is the first one to speak. "Hey Luce do you mind telling them what you need their help with?" Natsu asks as the four start on the dirt path to their home.
"Yeah I'm actually curious what you need our help with." Erza states as the house comes into view.
"I will explain once we're inside. I don't want the others hearing." She smirks as she looks to see the house.
"Lucy is making Juvia's head hurt. Juvia is confused." The water mage sighs rubbing her temples, confused as to why Lucy is being so secretive..
"Anyway I'll set you down so you can explain to them what you need their help with OK?" Natsu sighs setting her on the couch to see that she was in better shape than he thought.
"OK So now that we're here what do you need our help with?" Erza asks as the two women take a seat on two chairs in the living room as Natsu leaves to the Kitchen.
"Well I have an idea to beat Mira but I'll need your guy's help with it. But you guys can't talk about it to anyone OK?" She asks as Natsu was filling up a glass with cold water.
"OK Sure. We're willing to help right Juvia?" Erza asks looking at the blue haired woman.
"Juvia will help Juvia's ex-Love-Rival. What does Lucy need Erza and Juvia to do?" The water mage asks as Natsu walks into the room and hands Lucy a glass of water.
"Thanks." She smiles to her husband who sits next to her. "So my idea is that I'm not going to use my stardress forms because they use too much magic for a fight with Mira and I'm only going to use them as a last resort but I have an idea to beat her." She smirks as she takes out Gemini's key and they appear out of a bright light.
"So your idea is to have Gemini to copy me and Juvia along with a copy of you to use against Mira?" Erza asks curiously.
"Piri Piri! No we can now copy four because of how strong Lucy has become." The twins state in unison, as Erza and Juvia both raise Eyebrows.
"Wait so who is the fourth?" Erza asks confused.
"We'll show you afterwards, so Gemini can you copy both of them?" Lucy asks the twins who nod.
"We'll start with Juvia." They state floating to the center of the room and then a second Juvia pops out of a cloud of smoke.
"So that means that Juvia and Lucy are at least the same strength then." Erza states before the twins turn into Erza in all her armored glory." "Wait I'm as strong as Lucy?" Erza asks in shock.
"Yup the great Titania is as strong as Fiore's strongest Celestial wizard." The twins state turning back to the normal form.
"OK Gemini can you copy me again?"Natsu asks as the two women look at him confused before a puff of smoke erupts in the center of the room and a second Natsu appears.
"How is this possible?" Erza asks in shock.
"It's because Natsu and Lucy's love for each other is strong enough that even though Natsu is indeed stronger we can still do this." The twins state before vanishing.
"So I think I have an idea of what you're planning Lucy. If it goes well you'll win." Erza smirks as the two women leave.
"Feeling better?" Natsu asks as he notices Lucy finish the glass of water.
"Yeah. By the way where's happy?" Lucy asks noticing a lack of the fuzzball.
"He's staying with Charle tonight. I guess Wendy's going to be at Romeo's tonight so she's worried what they'll do." He explains as he notices her eyelids getting heavy.
"Hmm. You still want to go on a mission tomorrow right?" Lucy asks as she rests her head on the couch arm as her feet were on his lap.
"Yeah any idea of a kind you want to do?" Natsu asks as he starts rubbing her feet, casuing the blonde to moan lightly at the nice feeling of his warm hands.
"Hmm. I don't know but to be honest one that has a lot of a reward would be nice." She sighs as she feels soothed by the massage she was getting.
"OK. I think I saw one on the board where we have to help an area with a bandit problem. Wanna do that?" Natsu asks as the door to their house opens with Happy flying in and plopping down on the floor in front of the couch.
"Sounds good." She sighs closing her eyes.
"Hey Happy you wanna go on a mission tomorrow?" Natsu asks his blue furred companion.
"Aye sir!" The cat states with his paw raised in the air. "What kind of mission are we going to go on?" the cat asks curiously at his friend.
"Me and Luce thought of one that I saw. It's to get rid of a group of bandits. How does that sound?" He asks his companion as Lucy falls asleep.
"Sounds good. Oh by the way apparently Cana is going to be doing a bet for who everyone thinks is going to win and the winner will be getting 60%of the profits." Happy states to the pink haired man.
"Heh so Luce'll get 60% of the money then." Natsu smirks. "I just hope Mira doesn't hold back." Natsu states to his friend who looks at him strangely.
"Why don't you want Mira to hold back?" His friend ask curiously.
"She will definitely lose if she holds back." Natsu states with his characteristic smile plastered on his face.
"Has Lucy really gotten that strong?" Happy asks before a shine of white light appears and out comes Loke.
"Loke what are you doing here?" Natsu asks raising an eyebrow to his sudden appearance, while annoyed that the spirit appeared as Lucy was sleeping.
"I just wanted to let you two know that all of Lucy's spirits are willing to help in the battle and Mira will be defeated no matter what so if she wants to have a chance of beating Lucy she better not hold back." The leader of the golden gates states to the man.
"Hey If you want I can give Mira a letter from you about it if ya want." Natsu suggests to the man.
"Sure Natsu. I was actually going to give you one for her anyway." He smirks Giving Natsu a letter. "Anyway I'll be on my way, see ya." He smirks as he leaves in a bright light.
"Hm. Hey happy do you mind staying here and watch Luce I'm going to go back to the guild and give this to Mira. She should still be there." He smirks getting up.
"OK. I'll watch her while I eat fish." Happy states floating above Lucy's sleeping form as Natsu leaves.
I'm not asleep, I was just resting my eyes." Lucy remarks, stopping Nastu in his tracks. "Oh and remember what we talk about doing renovations? Well I decided agaisnt it. I really do like the house like so we won;t need to." Lucy smiles to Nastu as he heads out.
…...
As Nastu was heading to the guild to give mira the letter, Mira, Freed, Laxus and Lisanna were all in the guild talking as they were the only ones left in the guild. "Hey Mira are you going to go easy on Lucy for your fight?" Freed asks his girlfriend curiously.
"Master wants me to so I have to comply." Mira states in the now quite guild hall while truly didn't want to hold back.
"I don't know if that's such a good idea. Blondie has gotten strong." Laxus states to the woman, knowing full well that if Mira held back the match could be easily beaten.
"True but if it's masters wish I can't say no." She sighs as the guild doors open with Natsu walking in smirking with a letter in his hand.
"Natsu what are you doing here at almost seven?" Lisanna asks curiously with her boyfriends arm around her shoulders, noticing his grin
"I have a letter to give Mira. It's from Loke." Natsu Explains as he walks across the guild hall to give it to the woman.
"Hm lets see I'll read it out loud." Mira states opening the letter. "Dear Mira, I would suggest not going easy on Lucy when you have your battle with her. If you don't you will get beaten easily. So I would suggest going all out if want to have a challenge. Loke." She finishes with anger emitting from her along with a dark aura.
"What are you going to do big sis Mira?" Lisanna asks her sister who was now scaring even Laxus at the moment.
"Well I'm going to go all out it seems. This'll be interesting." She smiles devilishly.
"You still ain't going to win Mira." Natsu smirks crossing his arms over his chest.
"Oh? Why do you think that?" Lisanna asks curiously while Laxus rolls his eyes, knowing the actual reason.
"Do you really think I would Let Luce fight Mira if I didn't think she had a chance?" Natsu asks as Evergreen and Elfman come into the guild hall.
"True but she isn't that strong is she?" Laxus asks the pink haired slayer.
"She is strong enough to stop Guildarts." Natsu smirks. "When we were gone training for that year Guildarts helped us get stronger. Lucy was able to stop his movements with her whip." Natsu states noticing the curious looks on the group.
"Looks like you'll have to go all out huh?" Freed asks stretching his body.
"Anyway I should head back." He smirks waving off the group and heading out the doors.
"So what are you going to do?" Evergreen asks the she devil curiosuly.
"Well if Lucy's spirits have faith that Lucy will win against me, I guess I'll go all out. I'll make sure she isn't arrogant." She smirks devilishly towards everyone.
"Mira, Lucy is anything but arrogant." Freed sighs.
"Cana is going to be doing that bet isn't she?" Ever asks the group breaking the silence after five minutes.
"Yup. I wonder who everyone is going to bet for?" Lisanna asks curiously.
"What about you?" Laxus asks the white haired girl.
"What do you mean?" She asks the blonde confused.
"Think about it you're either going to vote for your sister or your childhood crush's wife. Who're you going to vote for?" Laxus asks smirking.
"I-I-I don't know. What about you Laxus?" She asks looking up at the blonde man.
"Probably Blondie. It seems that she might be stronger than Mira if Natsu and her spirits say she can win." He smirks as Mira rips up the letter. "Anyway I should head home. I'll see ya tomorrow kay?" He asks waving off the group.
…...
Happy was currently sitting on the kitchen table and had just finished eating a fish when Natsu got back to the house. "Hey Happy. How's Luce?" Natsu asks walking into the kitchen. "Uh where is she?" He asks noticing that the blonde wasn't in the living room.
"She went into the bedroom. I think her head is bothering her." Happy sighs floating over to his friend.
"OK. I think she may need some pain killers." Natsu suggets as he looks through the kitchen cupboards to get some painkillers and a glass.
"Do you think she'll be fine by tomorrow?" Happy asks as Natsu fills up the glass of water.
"Yeah. She just drank a little too much." He sighs taking two painkillers out of the bottle. "She really shouldn't drink so much." He frowns before the two head into the bedroom.
"By the way didn't you say you were going to stay with Charle tonight?" Natsu asks as they enter the room.
"She's mad so I decided not to, In fear of getting killed." Happy states rubbing the back of his head.
"I see. Hey Luce wake up." He smiles slowly shaking her.
"Natsu?" She questions fluttering her eyes as she gets used to the the light in the room.
"Hey here take this you should feel better tomorrow if you take it." He smiles handing her the medicine and water.
"Thanks." She smiles lightly as she takes the medicine.
"You know you really shouldn't drink so much." He sighs sitting next her on the bed.
"I didn't. I only had 2 mugs." She states to him as she sits up in the bed.
"You sure? You were walking like you had six." He states looking at her questionably.
"I'm sure. Are you going to get into bed?" She asks as Happy rests on the foot of their bed.
"Yeah just let me go and lock the door OK?" He asks leaving the two alone.
"Jeez you really are protective huh?" She asks out loud.
"Well it is Natsu. He's always been protective. Especially when it comes to you Lucy." Happy states walking over to the woman.
"That's true. I should take my rings off." She smiles putting them on the bedside table.
"Why'd you take them off Lucy?" Happy asks confused on why she took of the rings that meant she was married to Nastu.
"It's so that I don't lose them plus I could cut myself with them on." She smiles petting his head.
"Why would you cut yourself?" He asks curiously.
"The side of my wedding ring and the edges of my engagement ring is slightly sharp so if I move my hand while sleeping and if it's over my face I could cut myself." She states as Natsu walks into the room.
"Luce do you think you should change? You're still wearing your day time clothes." He states curiously.
"Sure Can you help me to the bathroom?" She asks turning to place her feet on the floor.
"Sure I do have your pajamas in the bathroom for ya OK?" He asks as she hooks her arm around him as she walks to the bathroom.
"I'll be right out." She sighs closing the bathroom behind her as Natsu walks to the bed.
"Dang it feels nice being to sleep in this bed again." He sighs stripping down to his boxers and feeling the mark on his neck.
"Hey Natsu I'm going to leave early tomorrow morning to make sure Charle is OK." Happy states as he curls up in a ball on the foot of the big fluffy bed.
"That's fine little buddy." He smiles as Lucy trudges over to the bed and falls onto him.
"Ugh My legs are so sore." She groans as Natsu helps her into bed.
"I know. You'll be fine tomorrow." He smiles as he puts the blanket over the two of them
"Hopefully. By the way why'd you chose this set?" She asks her husband who was setting his ring on the nightstand.
"I don't know what you mean." He smiles smugly looking out the window.
"You know full well that I can't fully button this top." She states as she gets close to him and wrapping her arms around him as he continues to look out the window.
"If you didn't like it you would've asked me to get you a different one wouldn't you?" Natsu asks turning his head to look at her blushing face.
"Lets just go to bed we need to get up so we can go take a mission OK?" She asks nuzzling into the crook of his neck.
"Sure Luce, night." He smiles as she falls asleep.
