Natsu who suddenly was unconscious from an unexpected kick from a really irked female Etherious woke up and found he was being helped with his arm around the person's shoulder, he looked and saw Seilah who was hiding her eyes with her hair.
"Seilah" Natsu spoke, Natsu looked back over his shoulder and felt or sensed no Etherion it had totally been burnt away "Heh I did it, I knew I could stop it and save my friends" he spoke to himself.
"I know I shouldn't be concerned since you gained the strength others could only dream of, now I know why you were labeled 'The Prince of All Fire Dragon's'" Seilah spoke "But I can't help it when you got caught in that blast I thought you were a done for, never do something that stupid again" she spoke quietly to him.
"I can't promise I won't do whats necessary to save my friends" Natsu told her then she grabbed him by the scarf since it was the only thing he had to grab onto.
"Ever!, I was really scared" Seilah snapped Natsu eyes widened as he saw tears going down her cheeks. then buried her face in his chest hiding her tears he wrapped his arms around her shoulder and the back of her head and she wrapped her arms under his arms.
"Sorry I never wanted to scare anyone, but I'll say this that output I just did was 40% of my power" Natsu told her Seilah lifted her head off his chest slightly.
"so you mean, your even stronger than you told us" Seilah said.
"Yes, but I'll say this I really had to push through that Etherion" Natsu admitted "sorry for scaring you like that, but you should be afraid for my sake" he said.
"It's actually too late for that, the moment you brought me in your Guild I couldn't help be concerned about you" Seilah chuckled softly.
"Now lets not stand around crying the others are coming" Natsu advised hearing them coming, Seilah wiped her eyes they turned to face their friends.
"Man your one crazy guy" Gray shook his head "I could've freezed it faster than you burnt it" he smirked.
"That was just a warm up, I could stop that kind of blast 25 times in a row before keeling over" Natsu frowned "you can't freeze something like that, but in your dreams maybe" he informed.
"I still can freeze you in a heartbeat" Gray glared in his face.
"I'd liked to see you try icepop" Natsu pushed his head against his who pushed back "I'd fry you before you knew what happened" he said.
"Could not" Gray glared back.
"Could to"
"Not"
"To"
"Not Not not"
"uh to to to"
"BOYS!" Erza shouted "It's been a long day you two are not starting this up again" she glared.
"Yes ma'am" both guys replied.
"Sorry" Natsu spoke "But he started it" he said.
"and I'm ending it" Erza scowled.
later the group was back at the resort resting, Natsu was sound a sleep snoring like crazy.
"Jeez I though his snoring was bad before, he went from snoring like a bear to snoring like a freaking freight-train" Gray grumbled.
"Aye sir" Happy chuckled.
"How much power did he burn off to make him sleep like that?" Lucy asked.
"I doubt he even burnt half off, I think he could go that output all day" Erza smirked.
"I still think I could freeze him in heartbeat" Gray muttered.
"You want to go Prince Underwear of Iceworld" Natsu barked bolting up standing up on the bed.
"Natsu your up" Happy smiled flying up to but then Natsu fell back to sleep flopping back down on the bed on his side making Happy gawk, the bed supports and legs gave out with a cracking sound of wood.
"That lava breath woke up just to pick a fight" Gray snapped with shark like teeth.
"Well atleast he stopped snoring" Lucy sighed but then more guttural snores sounded out with got louder as Natsu snored like a Freight-Train again.
"You had to jinx it" Gray grumbled.
Then Seilah walked in giving them a invite for a Buffet of all kinds of food "Thats Natsu- San making that racket?, I could hear it through the door" she spoke.
"Hey Seilah can I have a girl to girl talk with you?" Erza asked.
"Sure" Seilah replied the two walked out.
later the arrived in there room they shared.
"What did you need" Seilah asked, Erza crossed her arms.
"How do you really feel about Natsu?" Erza asked in a serious tone.
"beg your Pardon?" Seilah raised a brow.
"What I'm asking is do you like him more than a friend?" Erza asked making Seilah blush "I see the way you look at him, you always want to sit next to him in the Guildhall and you blush when you look at him, and you smirk when he kicks open Our guilds doors open and he walks with his cloak billowing like a cape" she said.
"Yes I like Natsu- Kun more than you would think, like i want to be in his arms all day" Seilah smiled with a blush.
"Actually I do" Erza spoke up making Seilah look with surprise "I felt like that for a long time and it took him gone for 7 years to realize how much he means to me when he was not there" she smirked "he's the one I want to spend the rest of my life with I feel like I can settle around him cause his presence and warmth is welcoming and inviting"
"It took me awhile but I love him" Erza told her "and I'm not the only one who does" she said.
"who else does" Seilah asked.
"Mirajane" Erza told her.
"The barmaid?" Seilah said.
" Yes, but if you like or even love Natsu, you could've told me or her" Erza spoke.
"Why would I do that?" Seilah asked.
"Because me and her are both with him" Erza smirked.
"I thought a Dragon Slayer or human can only love one" Seilah said.
"True but Natsu is a Prince remember so he's titled to have multiple mates or in his words Lovers" Erza told her.
How many?" Seilah asked.
"2 to 4" Erza smiled "so if you want to be with him you better make a move before his taking by two more" she smirked.
"I'll fight my way through any woman to get my spot" Seilah glared.
"Well tell him then" Erza smirked "Or live with regret of how a wonderful and powerful man was taking" egging her on.
"I will" Seilah clenched her hands into fists steeling her resolve.
