I hope you guys are having a great day and that this chapter is finding you in good spirits. not too long of a wait for chapters though this one is not going to be too long as well I'll explain in summary, so in any case, enjoy the chapter tell me what you think as always.

title: an inside joke

summary: an inside joke between Natsu and Lisanna that their guildmates will never understand, a moment between Natsu and Lisanna that I thought would be a funny and or cute moment between the two

relationships: Natsu and Lisanna: up to viewer the nature of the relationship

After all the tears and happiness that everyone in fairy tail experienced in the return of Lisanna, they needed to head to the guild, but first, they should get Lisanna home so she could change; it was apparent they were still in shock that they honestly had her back to most obvious that Mira, Elfman, and Natsu were as close to her as glue, but that wasn't important to them right now they needed to get her home so she could change and rest after everything that she had gone through in Edolas.

"Man," Lisanna muttered as they walked through the streets of her home, "Magnolia hasn't changed since I've been gone."

"Yeah," Elfman muttered, "you should be able to get back into the swing of things real quick little sis."

"Yeah," Natsu added, "you know Magnolia."

"Yep," Lisanna said, looking at the sky again, her mind falling back to her time in the alternate dimension "it's just so," she started, "I think the word is strange."

"What do you mean," Mira asked

"Nothing to worry about," Lisanna said, "just being in Edolas for so long, it so weird seeing all this again. "it's like being in a dream," she said

"Hey," Erza said, "we here for you, ya know" she smiled, "anything you need."

"Yeah," Gray said, "will help you in any way we can," he said

"Thank you," Lisanna muttered, looking down, seeing this, a smile came across Natsu's face as they approached the Strauss household looking at Lisanna. He then whispered something in Mira's ear, getting a giggle from her as everyone looked at them in confusion "everything okay" Lisanna asked

"Oh nothing, sis," Mira said as they reached their house

"Could you just wait here for a sec," Natsu said to the confused Strauss sibling? She nodded as he entered the house. A few seconds passed before he screamed "alright you can come in," he said, confused the girl, and everyone else walked into the house, wondering what Natsu was up to this time when he turned to face Lisanna again "oh, welcome home dear."

"What," everyone asked as Lisanna looked at him, shocked.

"I said" he was stopped when Lisanna rushed him, giving him a hug holding him as tightly as she could "welcome home," he said again.

"Honey, I'm home," Lisanna said. "I'm finally home," she whispered as she felt Mira come from behind her, hugging her.

"Hey, get me in there," Elfman called, wrapping them all in a tight hug

"Aye, sir," Happy screamed as he hopped in the middle of the hug

"What was that" Wendy asked

"An inside joke," Erza explained. "I never really understood it," Erza muttered. "Yeah, she used to say it all the time," Erza explained as they wanted as the group had a hugging session again though they could understand the sentiment cause finally, after three long years, their family was whole again, and nothing was going to separate them for the longest time.

Like I said short chapter, but this idea literally just hit me, and I wanted to write it out before I lost the idea. I'll try to update this more often in the future, but I'm not sure how that's going to go. So as always tell me what you think your thoughts and I'll see you all next time I decide to drop a chapter for this story

until next time
