"Luuucyyyyy," Natsu whined. "Luuuuuuce." He poked her cheek. "Luuuucyyyyyyyy!"
"Natsu, I'm working!"
"But I'm booooooored!"
"I can tell!" Lucy cried, exasperated, throwing her pen down against the desk. "Go do something with Happy!"
"Happy's with Wendy and Carla right now!" He poked her again.
"Stop poking me!" Lucy scolded her apparently starved-for-attention boyfriend.
"But Luuucyyyyyy, you said we'd do something after you finished that chapter! You finished it half an hour ago and started a new one!" Natsu pouted, fidgeting with a different pen from Lucy's desk.
Lucy sighed in annoyance. "I know, I know, but I'm on a roll with my writing! I'm making a lot of progress," Natsu grumbled something, but Lucy could tell he was conceding at least a little bit. "How about this, in another half hour, if I've slowed down writing, then I promise we'll do something, okay? And you know how I am with promises," she smiled.
"Man, but a half hour is so long to wait! I wanna-"
Natsu was cut off by Lucy's lips against his, his complaints quickly swept away by the kiss.
Lucy chuckled at the slightly dazed look on his face when she moved back. "Will that suffice for now?" she asked with a teasing lilt. "Think of it as a preview for what we'll do when I'm done."
Natsu nodded, but opened his mouth to say more. Lucy put a finger to his lips to keep him silenced. "But if you keep bugging me," she continued. "You're sleeping on the couch tonight and you won't be doing anything!"
