Chapter 25

Lucy rolled her eyes as another guy 'accidentally' grabbed her butt. She has been looking for Natsu for almost an hour. There were just too many people. She had spotted Lisanna dancing with Bickslow not long ago and desperately wanted to find Natsu.

"Luce!" A voice yelled over the music. She turned and saw the familiar head of wild pink hair coming down the stairs.

"Hey! There you are. Mira said you were looking for me."

"Yeah." Natsu chuckled nervously. "Well, I wanted to tell you first. Lisanna and I broke up."

"Oh no. Natsu, I'm sorry." Lucy said sympathetically. Inside she was excited.

"Well, the reason we broke up is that there's someone else. For both of us. She started to like Bickslow and well I started to like you." Natsu's face was pink.

Lucy threw her arms around Natsu and laughed. "I like you too!"

"What? Really?" Lucy laughed and answered him with a kiss. She pulled him onto the dance floor.

They lost track of time as they danced together. Lucy was in total bliss with Natsu's arms around her. Another slow song came on and he pulled her close. She sighed.

Suddenly Natsu stopped. "Is that Levy?"

"Where?" Lucy turned to where Natsu was pointing.

Levy was headed upstairs with a guy Lucy didn't know. Lucy's eyes went wide and she started to head that way. Natsu stopped her and pointed in another direction. That's when she spotted Gajeel. If looks could kill, everyone in his path would be dead right now. Especially the guy with Levy.

Lucy watched as Levy started to collapse as Gajeel reached her. He threw her over his shoulder and slammed the guy into the wall. Everyone parted as Gajeel stormed out of the building.

"Should we go after them? Metal Face looks really mad."

"No. We figured something like this may happen. We knew he wouldn't be on time and may catch her dancing with another guy and drag her out of here."

"But that wasn't just dancing."

Natsu and Lucy looked after them, curiously. Natsu grinned and kissed Lucy. "I probably shouldn't go home right now."

"Well, that's good. We can dance some more."

XxxxxX

"My feet are killing me!" Lucy yelled to Natsu over the music.

"Wanna get out of here?"

Lucy nodded. Natsu grabbed her hand and lead her outside. Once outside they both sighed.

"I wonder if Gajeel and Levy are still in our room."

"We could go to mine," Lucy suggested shyly.

Natsu swallowed. "Alright."

Just as they headed back to the dorm, a police car with the sirens on zoomed passed them. When they got to the dorm, the police car was parked in front alongside an ambulance. They looked at each other, matching looks of confusion on their faces.

An officer stopped them from entering the building. "I'm sorry but we can't let you inside. There's an ongoing investigation."

"Can you at least tell us what's going on? This is my dorm room."

Before the officer could reply, Natsu called out. Lucy turned and saw where he raced off to. Her heart stopped when she saw who was being loaded into the ambulance.
