Hey Guys. Here's the next chapter. Sorry this one's late. I kinda forgot about it since I usually put up a chapter when the newest Fairy tail manga chapter goes up but the newest one went up this past Saturday Anyway hope you all like this one.
It was mid morning and a couple was currently sleeping in one of the hospital rooms before the blonde slowly woke up to the sun hitting her face. "Hmmm? Where am I?" Lucy asks blinking to get used to the light, noticing the white tiled ceiling. "Natsu?" Lucy questions as her hand was over his soft pink locks as he was sleeping with his head on the mattress
"You're finally awake Lucy." A brown haired woman smiles walking over to her. "Does anything hurt?" She asks while Lucy was nudging Natsu awake.
"No not really what happened? All I remember is summoning one of my spirits, then everything going dark." Lucy sighs. She was incredibly angry with herself that she could've lost both hers and their unborn child's lives.
"Natsu can tell you Later. For now there's some things I want to talk to you about." The nurse explains as Natsu gets up and sits on the foot of the bed. "First thing is Lucy you cannot use magic while pregnant." The brown haired woman states sternly. "Before you ask why it's because your magic is different from normal magic. Because your keys use a lot of magic to summon a spirit it can be dangerous to use it while pregnant." The woman states as Lucy nods knowing why. "There's also something I want to talk to you about. I want to be your personal nurse during your pregnancy and for whenever you get pregnant again." She explains to the two.
"Why do you want to? We don't really know you." Lucy states looking at the woman.
"You do. I was the lone survivor of a town that burned by bandits but was saved by you two along with Grey and Juvia. My name is Tifa. I became a nurse so that I could help you when the time came." She smiles at the two as they have shocked expressions on their faces.
"Seriously you're that little girl?" Natsu asks shocked.
"Yup so will you let me?" Tifa asks smiling.
"Of course we will." Lucy smiles looking at Natsu who nods in agreement.
"OK then. Well you can't leave for about three days. When you leave I'll be leaving with you so that I can make sure everything is OK Is that fine?" Tifa asks to the two.
"That's fine with us." Lucy smiles as Tifa leaves the two alone to talk.
"Now do you see why I didn't want you going? You got cut up and hurt because I couldn't do anything." Natsu sighs looking at his wife in bandages.
"I'm sorry. It looks like you were right." She sighs looking down at herself as Natsu moved closer to her.
"Don't worry just promise to listen to me more?" He asks cupping her face and placing his forehead against hers.
"Mmm. I'll try but I don't know if I can considering how my hormones have been making me act lately." She sighs before pulling him into a light kiss.
"Mmm. When we get back I'll make you dinner OK?" He asks looking lovingly into her eyes after pulling away from the kiss.
"OK. It better be something spicy." She smirks fluttering her eyes.
"It will. By the way, it's weird when you ask for spicy stuff." He smirks kissing her lightly again.
Don't get used to it. I'll probably be back to normal once our child is born." She smiles looking at her ever growing belly.
…...
It was three days after Lucy had woken up and Natsu, Lucy and Tifa were getting ready to get off the train in Magnolia as the train was slowing down before coming to a complete stop, letting it's passengers leave and head into Magnolia."So this is Magnolia?" Tifa asks as the three get off the train and start heading into Magnolia.
"Yup." Natsu replies as they start walking down the street.
"Hey Natsu, there's still no one living here huh?" Lucy asks as the three stop in front of Lucy's old apartment.
"Yeah even though you don't live here anymore there were a lot of memories here huh?" Natsu asks kissing her neck.
"Yeah. You used to sneak into my bed when I was sleeping before we started dating." She elbows him as they start walking.
"It was worth it every time. Especially before I fell for ya literally and physically." He smirks grabbing her hand.
"Where's the hospital?" Tifa asks the two as they continue walking.
"It's that building right there." Lucy states pointing to the hospital near the center of town.
"Thanks. I'll make all the arrangements. Can you guys come here at six to show me where your place is?" Tifa asks as the two nod and walk off toward the guild.
"Hey do you want to go to the guild or go home and rest?" Natsu asks as they walk past the park and continue walking.
"I think I should rest." Lucy smiles as they turn to head onto the dirt path that was now covered in snow to their house. "But you'll have to leave me alone so you can bring Tifa at six." Lucy states as their house comes into view.
"Yeah I know. I will, but for now you need to rest." He states as the two walk into their house.
"Nastuu! Lucy!" A blue exceed yells flying into the two.
"Hey bud." Natsu smiles as Lucy scratches the top of his head.
"Lucy are you OK?" Happy asks as the three go into the bedroom.
"Yeah, I just need some rest." She sighs as she lays on the bed.
"Hey Happy can you go and tell everyone that we're back but Lucy just needs to rest today and we'll be at the guild tomorrow OK?" Natsu asks his flying companion.
"Aye Sir!" Happy exclaims putting a paw in the air before flying out of the house and towards the guild.
"Hey Natsu, why don't you go with him?" Lucy asks as Natsu sits on the edge of the bed resting a hand on hers.
"I don't want to leave you alone right now." he smirks at her who just rolls her eyes.
"I'll be fine Natsu." She states to the man who doesn't move.
"It's fine I'm actually kinda tired so I'm going to take a nap until I need to go OK?" He asks getting into bed next to Lucy.
"Fine. You don't need to be so protective over me though." She says turning to look at him.
"Even though you're my wife?" He asks resting his head on her shoulder.
"Never mind. I just wish you wouldn't stress out so much." She smiles as he places a kiss on her forehead.
…...
It was late evening and Natsu had woken up and taken a shower before he had to go and get Tifa from the hospital since she was going to be staying with them during Lucy's pregnancy. "Hey Luce? You should get up." Natsu states coming out of the bathroom after his shower. "Oi C'mon babe get up." He rolls his eyes as he nudges her awake after she wouldn't wake up.
"Mmm. Natsu? What time is it?" She asks stretching as she slowly wakes up and looks at her husband.
"It's 5:45 I'm going to go get Tifa so you should wake up. Happy is in the living room so if you need anything let him know OK? I'll be back soon." He explains kissing her before leaving.
"Hey Natsu where are you going?" Happy asks as Natsu heads for the door.
"I'm going to get someone. Luce will let you know more once she gets up OK?" He asks as he heads out to the now snowing town of Magnolia.
"Seems likes we're getting a snowstorm soon." He sighs as he starts walking through the snow.
"Natsu where are you going in this snow?" Erza asks as she notices Natsu emerge from the normally dirt path.
"Oh hey Erza, Jellal. I'm going to go pick up Tifa from the hospital." Natsu explains as the three start walking through the quiet streets of Magnolia.
"Why are you going to pick her up?" Erza asks curiously.
"She wants to be Luce's personal Nurse while she's pregnant so she needs to stay with us." Natsu explains as they walk past the park. "By the way where are you guys going?" Natsu asks noticing a lack of Meredy.
"Oh we're going to wait for Meredy at the train station. She's supposed to be getting back from her mission soon." Jellal replies as they split off with Natsu going toward the Hospital and the other two going toward the station.
"There you are. Right on time." Tifa smiles walking over to the pink haired man.
"Yeah. I'd be careful. I almost slipped a few times coming here." Natsu explains noticing that Tifa was carrying a couple bags.
"Well lets go before the weather gets worse. Plus It's not good to leave Lucy alone." Tifa explains following behind Natsu.
"She's not alone. And why do you have those bags?" Natsu asks walking past the park.
"Oh these bags have clothes for me and also some medical stuff for Lucy. Who's watching over Lucy right now? I thought you and Lucy lived together?" Tifa asks slightly confused.
"We do live together but someone else does too." He explains stopping before the path to the woods.
"So where to now?" Tifa asks noticing Natsu was currently looking towards the woods.
"That way only problem is the path is covered in snow. Hmm I have an idea of how to make it easier to walk through." He smirks looking at the snow.
"How do you plan on doing that?" She asks before Natsu lights his body ablaze a starts walking through the foot of snow melting it with his feet.
"Just like this. Follow me to the house." He smirks crating a path in the snow.
"Wait you guys live near the woods?" Tifa asks shocked as she follows him.
"Yup. The house was originally built by me and Guildarts when I was little. But a few years ago me and most of the guild did some renovations to it so that Luce could Live there too." He explains as the house comes into view. "That reminds me I gotta fix this sign." He sighs looking at a sign that said Natsu and Happy. "Anyway come on that's the place right there." He smirks walking up to the house.
"Wow it looks nice." She smiles as Natsu walks into the house with Tifa behind him.
"Natsu! You're back!" Happy exclaims flying in front of Natsu.
"Yup where's Luce?" Natsu asks not seeing her in the living room as Tifa closes the door behind her.
"She's working on her novel. Apparently she had an idea so she wanted to see how far she could get. Anyway this is Tifa? The girl you guys along with Grey and Juvia saved years ago?" Happy asks looking freaked out woman.
"Yeah I am. By the way what are you? When Natsu told me that they lived with someone else I was expecting a person not a talking, flying cat." She states looking at Happy.
"I'm an exceed. And also one of Natsu's closest friends. He's known me all my life." He states flying over to the kitchen table and plopping down.
"Anyway where will I be staying?" Tifa asks shaking her head in disapprovement at the cat.
"This way follow me." Natsu states motioning Tifa to follow him into the hall and into the only other room with a bed.
"So this is it?" Tifa asks looking around the bedroom.
"Yup. Sorry if it's a little bit unfurnished for now this room is for when we watch one of our friends kids over night. Plus all this stuff in here is Luce's old bedroom stuff before she moved in here." He explains as Tifa places her bags on the bed.
"Hmm. It's really nice. Let me get my stuff organized in here and I'll be out OK?" Tifa asks unzipping the bags.
"No problem I'm going to get dinner started I hope you don't mind spicy stuff. Lucy asked for that so I'm going to figure out what to make." Natsu states leaving the room.
"Hey Natsu everything OK?" Happy asks as Natsu comes back into the kitchen.
"Yeah I just need to figure out what to make for dinner." He explains to his friend as he searches the fridge for ingredients.
"What are you thinking of making?" Happy asks as he eats a fish.
"Hmm. Possible some spicy chicken sauteed in barbecue sauce." Natsu thinks to his friend as he pulls out chicken from their fridge. "Hey do you mind getting Luce for me?" Natsu asks as he searches the cupboard for spices.
"Aye sir!" Happy exclaims as he floats off to the living room laving his half eaten fish behind as Tifa enters the kitchen.
"Hey Tifa do you mind having spicy barbecue chicken?" Natsu asks noticing her eyes looking at the half eaten raw fish.
"No I don't mind. What's with the fish?" She asks as Happy flies back over.
"It's mine." Happy states as he plops back down and starts munching on the fish. "By the way, Lucy said she'll be right out. She just wants to finish the page fist." Happy explains in between bites of his fish.
"Thanks bud. How's she feeling anyway?" Natsu asks as he finds the needed spices.
"I think she's fine." Happy states as Lucy enters the living room from her library and locking it.
"Hey Natsu can you help me with this?" Lucy asks walking over to her husband and handing him the necklace.
"Yeah sure just turn around." Natsu states as he puts the necklace on her clicking it into place. "How's your next chapter going?" Natsu asks as she sits down at the table.
"It's going good I should have it done soon so that Levy can look it over." She smiles noticing Tifa.
"That's good. You still want something spicy for dinner right?" Natsu asks looking at Lucy.
"Yup. What do you plan on making?" Lucy asks while scratching Happy's ear.
"How about spicy chicken sauteed in barbecue sauce?" Natsu asks his wife who nods in agreement.
"By the way Natsu showed you the room that you'll be staying in right?" Lucy asks the brown haired nurse as Natsu sets the chicken in a pan.
"Yes he did. How are you feeling by the way?" Tifa asks the smiling blonde as the two watch Natsu cook the chicken using his fire magic.
"Other than usual tenseness in my back I'm fine." Lucy smiles as the smell of the food fills the house.
"Well soon that won't be the only pain sadly." Tifa explains as the two continue talking as Natsu continues cooking their meal with a smile on his face. Natsu was more than a little happy that they had someone that knew exactly what to do with the pregnancy.
