YouTube Prompt: Natsu tribute to 'Rock of Ages' by Journey.
Breakfast time at the Dragneel household shouldn't be an event. Emphasis on the word shouldn't. There was usually one mini-drama at every meal time thanks to Natsu's gluttonous ways and Happy's loud, wail-y, tears. This particular mini-drama was Nashi-centred as her cute, adorable, two year old was beginning to eat her meals by herself.
Lucy thought it was best to start with simple things and after mastering toast and sandwiches, Lucy decided it was time to move onto cereal…..the problem is Nashi decided to eat with her fingers.
The little two year old poked her forefinger and thumb into the cold milk and delicately picked up a piece of cereal before she shoved it in her mouth.
"Nashi!" Lucy chided as she moped up the milk splattered all over the table. "No! Bad girl!" Nashi stared up at her with wide innocent eyes. "You don't eat with your hands!" Lucy said firmly refusing to be weakened by how sweet and adorable her daughter's wide-eyes and little pout as. "Grown-ups don't eat with their hands."
As if to purposely prove her wrong, Natsu walked into the kitchen that very moment. "Ooh!" he grinned. "Bacon!" he then grabbed the greasy, fried, meet up with his bare hands and stuffed it into his mouth. "'anks Lushy!" he mumbled. Lucy grimaced as she felt bits of bacon spray her in the face.
Nashi giggled and stuffed her hand into the cereal bowel again.
"This is your fault," Lucy declared as she waved a hand at Nashi. Milky drool covered her chin as she smiled round her hand at Natsu. "That's your manners written all over her there."
Natsu swallowed. "What are you on about now, you weirdo?" he asked bemused.
"Our daughter's table manners and the lack of them," Lucy grumbled. She whirled round and wagged firmly at Nashi. "Now you pick up your spoon young lady," she said sternly, "and you eat your cereal."
Nashi grudgingly picked up her spoon…and then promptly stuck her hand into the bowel. Lucy watched utterly gobsmacked as Nashi tightly held onto her spoon in one hand while she used the other to feed herself with, splattering milk everywhere.
Her daughter was an evil genius…..and cheeky to boot!
Natsu burst out laughing as Lucy spluttered indignantly. "This is your fault," Natsu's solemn tone was completely contradicted by the cheeky gleam in his eyes and the matching grin on his face, "that's your smarts written all over her there."
Nashi laughed gleefully as Natsu ruffled her hair proudly.
Lucy would have told him off for encouraging Nashi's cheekiness but she couldn't bring herself to do more than stare at her daughter in horror, she had Natsu's cheekiness and Lucy's intelligence all wrapped up in her own natural adorableness….Oh dear God she has doomed the world!
