AN: I feel like the only reason Lisanna let go of Natsu was because in Edolas he was so different from the person she had known. Edo-Natsu already had the Edo-Lucy. If Lisanna had remained in Fairy Tail then she could have possibly fallen in love with him so right now Lisanna isn't going to be very happy with Natsu and Lucy. She isn't a bitch, I won't bash her because that isn't fair but she isn't going to be happy seeing Natsu with Lucy.

Chapter eleven
The next morning everyone more or less stumbled into the guild. None of them were sure whether or not they all had the same dream of Natsu being married to a blonde haired bombshell. They all more or less sat in silence in the guild waiting for the pink haired Dragon Slayer to make an appearance with most of them wondering if his wife and daughter would be with him as well.
When Natsu threw open the doors Lisanna immediately zeroed in on him. He seemed more or less the same expect for the fact that he wasn't wearing those gloves anymore. Her eyes widened at the sight of a gold wedding band sitting on his left hand finger.
"You really are married. All that really happened and it wasn't some sort of dream?" she questioned him.
As much as she tried for it to come off as humorous, many of the girls in Fairy Tail winced at the bitterness in her voice. Natsu probably hadn't picked up on it because he was lost in thought but some of the guys gave her a weird look as well. Lisanna hadn't been able to hide it from anyone but Natsu.
Cana put down her drink and shared a look with Levy. The two girls seemed to be on the same page even though others hadn't caught on.
"Whose side are we supposed to take here?" asked Evergreen and Cana shook her head at them. Levy resisted the urge to face palm but she couldn't help but feel bad for Lisanna. This was not something that any of them were expecting.
Once Natsu had entered the guild, most of the men had surrounded him and began asking questions about him and Lucy. The general stuff on how they met and when they got married. The women more or less converged on Lisanna while keeping an ear out on the conversation.
"Lucy Dragneel, we may not know anything about her but we do know that she is Natsu's wife and a member of Fairy Tail. It doesn't matter if none of us know anything about her or that we knew Lisanna longer. We cannot pick sides in this or turn this into some sort of cat fight. The truth is that there aren't any sides to pick. This isn't fight." Replied Cana.
Bisca couldn't help but say, "But everyone expected Natsu to end up with Lisanna."
Levy raised an eyebrow at her, "Did anyone ever ask Natsu what he wanted? It was funny when we were kids to imagine them as a couple. We would pair up everyone with who we thought they would end up with and it was fun. However did anyone ever ask Natsu what he wanted because married someone who isn't Lisanna."
Levy waited a moment for all of them to realize that they didn't really have the power to predict who ends up with whom. The lives of their nakama were not up to a vote. They didn't get to choose who someone falls in love with. Levy continued remembering the way Natsu acted yesterday.
"Natsu pulls her into his arms and he hugs her all the time or kisses her and gives her presents just because he wants to make Lucy happy. It isn't his fault Lisanna didn't tell him how she felt sooner. Technically he never promised her anything so he didn't do anything wrong. Just because he ended up with someone we don't know isn't his fault. He went out and found someone he loved. If Lisanna didn't want to lose him she should have tried making him hers first."
Cana nodded her head to Levy, "Natsu already made his choice. If we try to make Lucy feel uncomfortable for being with him Natsu would never forgive us. This isn't a battle for his heart. Lucy already won."
Bisca looked at her partner and bit her lip. Lisanna and Natsu's relationship shared a lot of similarities to hers and Alzack's. They went on jobs together and spent most of their time outside of the guild together. However they didn't make any promises to each other. They hadn't made any plans for the future and she never thought that the day would come when he wouldn't be there for her.
This whole situation just showed her that if she didn't say something to him soon then she could lose him as well. Lisanna never said anything to Natsu not wanting to ruin their friendship or because they were younger but that didn't mean that she couldn't learn from her. Alzack could find someone else to love if she didn't make it clear that she loved him.
Bisca decided to think about her relationship later. For now she needed to be listening to what the other girls were planning. Erza was agreeing with Levy and so were most of the others. No one wanted Lisanna to get hurt but sometimes when you like someone they don't like you back and that isn't anyone's fault. It's the way things worked out sometimes. Most of the time when you have a crush on someone its your heart that gets crushed.
Lisanna was listening to the girls and she couldn't help but want to cry. Mira put an arm around her shoulder, "Natsu was always a very blunt and honest person. You had to spell out what you wanted from him and it looks like you were too late. He didn't get the hint and chose someone else. You're a great girl Lisanna. One day you'll find someone who treats you like the amazing person that you are but that person isn't going to be Natsu."
Natsu on the other hand went to the guild simply because he didn't want to listen to Lucy cry over something that he couldn't fix. She loved her spirits so much and knowing that the spirit was gone hurt her. The fact that it was someone she considered to be her friend was grieving as well was killing her. Loke was one of her most trusted and treasured spirits and it was his little brother that had been killed by a mage. A mage who was supposed to protect their spirits.
He hated not being able to help but he knew if he could answer most of the guilds questions it would help in some way. He could take some of the heat off her so that she could get some peace. He was here to answer whatever questions they wanted him to answer. As long as it wasn't too personal, he knocked out Bickslow when he asked what her three sizes were.
Loke had gone into the spirit world taking the key of his little brother with him. He explained that the key should have been destroyed. However silver spirits have more than one key which was the reason that this one somehow managed to survive. He was keeping it as a reminder of his brother.
Natsu explained why Lucy wasn't around and that it would be a couple of days before she came back to the guild. Then he sat at the bar and asked Mira for lunch. He felt crappy since he couldn't fix this for Lucy but as she already explained there was no bringing back lost spirits. Many of the guild members respected Lucy for caring so much about her spirits.
Laxus returned from a mission three days after Natsu was interrogated by the guild and missed the news. When he went to the guild looking for the twins from hell as he liked to call them Macro told him that Mystogan and Siegrain were with Natsu and his wife.
Laxus laughed for a full five minutes before realizing that they were serious. Somehow the pink haired dragon slayer had gotten married a year ago without anyone even knowing. He was also told that they adopted a kid. He didn't really believe that either so that was the reason why he was walking in the general direction of where Natsu lived. He needed to see the person crazy enough to marry Natsu.
Erza, Gray, Mira and Lisanna were at Natsu's home as well. It had been about four days since they found out that he had gotten married to someone none of them knew so they came to visit the family. Erza and Gray had come because they were technically his closest friends in the guild even if Gray refused to admit it. Mira had tagged along when Lisanna decided to go and meet Natsu's wife as well.
Mira was worried that Lisanna might say something that would upset Lucy or Natsu. It was also possible that she could reveal her feelings without meaning too. She could also get upset since she was really trying to accept Natsu's decision but she was struggling.
Lisanna had somehow convinced herself that if she could see for herself how loved and happy Natsu was with Lucy then she would be able to find it in herself to be happy for him. She wanted to try and befriend Lucy. However both sisters knew that would take some time before she was comfortable enough for that but she wanted to try. She didn't want to turn into a bitter bitch.
Lucy sighed when she realized that they were never going to get a moment of peace. Siegrain and Mystogan had arrived that morning. They wanted to learn more about the future war that was coming and the Balam Alliance. Fairy Tail had come up against all members of that alliance and they had won. However none of the battles had been easy and they wanted as much information as they could get.
The group had already made many changes to the timeline. They were trying to see how things would change or how some events could possibly come into play. However before they could get very fair into planning someone knocked on the door and Lucy had a house full of guests.
Lucy sighed. Some things never changed so they stopped all future talk. Lucy also decided to try and stop being so depressed over Cub. She needed to be able to move onwards. There was nothing she could do for herself or for Loke but she could take the first steps to being part of her family once again.
Natsu called Wendy to spar with him in the training area that he created for them. Gray watched in shock as the tiny girl roared with enough power to counteract the roar the Natsu sent towards her. Then the little girl attacked him. A flurry of kick and punches and he just stood there and took it, blocking punches and kicks throwing her up into the air and watching as she dived towards him trying to get him to move. To push him backwards even an inch as she used the air currents to fly and the momentum from him throwing her backwards to push herself forward with even more force.
The group watched in awe as Natsu of all people in the world demonstrated to her how to combine her attacks. He went slowly, showing her each precise movement and where to aim before taking his place again and waiting for to attack. They watched in awe as the little blue haired girl listened attentively and then moved. She moved slowly at first getting used to bending and moving her body in certain ways. Once she had gotten used to the movements, she went after him with even more force, trying once more to move him.
Lucy came out with a tray of lemonade and Siegrain picked up the glass first and then he grinned at her, "Would you like another spar Luce?"
Erza watched their interaction carefully as Lucy giggled at him and shook her head, "I still have the bruises from the last time I attempted to take you on."
Wendy suddenly went flying backward. Lucy flicked her whip catching the blue haired young girl around her ankle with her whip ensuring she didn't crash into the trees. Wendy realizing that she wasn't about to hit a tree gathered the wind to herself ensuring that when her mama removed her whip she wouldn't fall. Lucy snapped her wrist and her whip hit Natsu on his head as he met his wife's eyes in terror, holding his hands up defensively.
"What are you thinking baka? Be more careful, she doesn't need broken bones." She scolded him as she helped Wendy to her feet. Natsu immediately gave her the kicked puppy look and Lucy responded by kissing his cheek as an apology for being so harsh.
Laxus joined Mystogan and stared at Lucy, "How the hell did he get a girl that looks like that?"
Gray laughed out loud at the question and Erza raised an eyebrow in question to what they were whispering about. Lucy turned towards the people gathered outside their home, "Whose staying for lunch?" she called out and Laxus whistled, "She cooks too."
Siegrain nodded, "Her food is delicious."
Erza decided that I would be best for her sanity to ignore the boys and turned towards Natsu. He was so different now. Nothing like the boy she had known since her childhood. He seemed to have grown up overnight. He trained his daughter well.
Apparently he taught Lucy how to fight as well but it was more than that. His eyes were softer. He wasn't in a hurry to rush out and go on an adventure anymore. He seemed at peace simply by being next to her. Natsu looked like a family man now. All grown up and settled and she wondered when things had changed so fast.
"Hey Natsu, we haven't sparred yet. How about it?" she called out and he gave her his famous fanged grin and for a moment it seemed like nothing had changed.
"How about a tag team match? You and Gray vs. Lucy and I." replied Natsu.
Mira and Lisanna immediately grinned even Laxus couldn't help but be amused and a little curious. He was told that Lucy was a stellar mage and he had to admit he had never seen one of those fight. He had heard of Karen from Blue Pegasus but he had never actually worked with her. As far as he knew he never saw her summon any spirits.
In fact, he knew that the magic was the holder type anything else was a mystery to him. He also really wanted to see the couple fight together. Laxus grimaced he never thought he would see the day Natsu as part of a couple and not just any couple but he was married. First one of their generation to get married and Gramps was probably going to be asking him to get married soon and make babies.
Erza smiled at him and nodded her head because why not. It would be a good bonding experience for all of them. None of them knew anything about Lucy and Fairy Tail had been well-known for the amount of trouble they caused.
Everyone wanted to see what the wife of 'The Salamander' would be capable of and considering how he trained Wendy to fight. She could be a very skilled and then there was the fact that next to no one knew anything about her magic and how that worked.
They also really just wanted a way to get to know the girl. She was obviously very important to Natsu and she was a new member of the guild. Fairy Tail was well-known for the fact that they were family. When one was angry they were all angry. When one cried they all cried and when was happy they were all happy. Natsu seemed to orbit around his wife like she was the sun and they wanted to know her. Someone who could so obviously loved Natsu so much and changed him into a fully functional adult had to be someone incredible.
Erza and Gray agreed to the fight and they decided to do it tomorrow. Lucy had been practicing her magic and her power was at a low. Natsu had been training Wendy all day. They all wanted to be in top form when they fought. Their guests went back to the guild to let everyone know about the fight tomorrow. Lucy rolled her eyes and smiled to herself as she watched them walk away.
Erza seemed more at peace with herself. It was similar to how she had been when they were done with the Tower. She seemed happy knowing that Siegrain wasn't an insane psychopath anymore and they seemed to have something happening there. There was a slight attraction but she didn't want to interfere in their relationship. If its meant to be then they would find a way to be together.
Mira seemed happier. She had always been kind and friendly in the other time line but she also carried within her a deep sadness. It wasn't something that went away even after her sister returned. She was afraid to be herself. The 'Demon Mirajane' had been only her negative emotions. Her fierceness that had shown but afterwards she hid her darkness away. This Mira seemed like a balance of both sides of herself without hiding any part of herself. Lucy was happy for her, she finally seemed at peace.
Natsu wrapped his arms her and cuddled her into his chest. She had her family back and even though they hadn't given her a chance to plot with Mystogan and Siegrain. Lucy was finally part of the guild again and she was able to rebuild her relationships with everyone. She was excited to do this but at the same time it pained her to look at the people that she knew so well and realize that they looked at her like a stranger.
"You'll all be great friends in no time." He whispered in her ear and kissed her forehead silently telling her to stop worrying so much and just relax.
Wendy held onto Natsu's hand as they walked into the guild. It was a shocking sight for several of the people in the town as they walked through the streets into the guild. Gray had to do a double take when Natsu patted the girl on her head and she ran off to make friends with Levy.
Wendy was holding Carla in her hands and introducing her to Levy. The blue haired girl blinked in shock several times when she was approached and saw Natsu smile at her and give her a thumbs up. She was touched that he trusted her to be the first person in the guild that his daughter met and Levy got to introduce her to everyone.
Lucy smiled softly at the sight of her best friend showing Wendy a picture in a book. Natsu wrapped his arm around her shoulders and whispered in her ear. Her laugh echoed in the guild causing several people to stop and stare at the couple in shock. It was a beautiful sight to see Natsu wrapped around someone and as she laughed he stared at her like a blind man looking at the sun for the first time. He seemed to be happy just because she was happy in that moment.
However, they weren't here for everyone to gush about how cute they were together because Erza ended the family moment. No one was used to seeing Natsu like this. He had never been so wrapped up in someone or even interested in something that wasn't food or fighting. It was going to take some getting used too even though it was a good change. None of them had ever seen him so happy.
"Are the two of you ready?" Erza called out and Lucy nodded her head.
She took off her cloak, letting them all see the outfit that her father had gifted her so long ago. She hadn't used it much since Clover town. She had it refitted when they came back to Magnolia and she got a few more in similar colors.
It was really comfortable to fight in and she was going to take this seriously. She really wanted to know how she would fair in a fight against Erza. She wanted to know how far she had come and how far she had left to go.
They went outside and the master activated the rune barrier. There was a glow of purple energy and she saw a wall of runes appear for a brief second. This would ensure that their attacks would not be able to reach the people outside the cage or destroy the surrounding area. Everyone gathered around to watch because they were curious to see this fight and since it was Fairy Tail they were already placing bets on the winner.
Wendy huffed in anger when she realized that everyone blocked her vision of the area. She also knew that her parents would kill her if she got too close. She looked around and saw that both Siegrain and Mystogan were in the front with the master. She spun around and saw a big blonde man standing with three other people near the back. They were all tall enough to see.
Mama said that Laxus was the Masters grandson. He was one of the most powerful mages that she ever saw fight. He was standing with a green haired man, a pretty brown haired woman and a man wearing some sort of helmet. They were called the Thunder God tribe. This was his team she remembered her parents talking about them. Natsu wanted her to know who was in Fairy Tail. In case something happened so she knew where she could get help.
She took a deep breath and steeled herself. Carla was with Happy somewhere. She lost sight of her when she was talking to Levy. She went over to the 6'2 man and tugged on his coat. Laxus looked down and caught sight of a little blue haired girl who was just a little taller than his knees.
"Whats wrong kid?" he asked, not wanting to make the little girl cry but he had about zero experience with kids and he didn't know what to do here. Besides it was well-known that Laxus was an asshole on a good day and he really didn't want to the reason the little girl cried.
"I can't see." She whispered and Freed chuckled.
Evergreen hid her smile in her fan. The poor girl seemed terrified and adorable all at the same time. Laxus didn't know what the hell to do then he remembered gramps and what he would do for him when he was a brat that couldn't see over the crowd and he sighed. He bent down, gestured to his back and told her, "Hop on."
Wendy blushed and with a little bit of magic she had a gust of wind give her a boost. The wind pushed her upwards so she could reach his neck and settled onto his large shoulders.
Master nearly teared up seeing his grandson letting a little girl sit on Laxus shoulders. Laxus was shocked when Lucy turned to him and beamed at him. He tried not to blush but he was very rarely warmly accepted by a woman who didn't want to sleep with him. Instead of dwelling on those thoughts he huffed and crossed his arms not looking at anyone.
"Little Miss, may I ask you a question." Asked Freed and Wendy nodded her head.
"If you can use wind magic, why not just fly yourself above the crowd?"
Wendy ducked her head, "I can't maintain the height and it takes too much magic. Papa said I'll be able to when I'm older but its hard. I can twist the air around me if I get thrown around but I can't figure out how to keep myself airborne without draining all my magic."
She looked so sad Freed immediately tried to soothe her, "I'm sure you'll learn. I'm sure its advanced magic. You also have plenty of time to figure it out, just like your papa said."
Freed found it strange to refer to Natsu as 'papa' but when Wendy beamed at him in a similar manner as her mother had previously done he couldn't help but smile back. She was such a sweet child and Laxus just sighed in relief. No one wants to make a little girl cry by being insensitive and Fairy Tail men were not known for being sensitive. They all looked up and stopped talking when the match started.
Natsu smirked. He knew that everyone would expect him to take on Erza and leave Gray to Lucy but he wanted to test the speed of his molding magic. Lucy really wanted to test her close combat moves. When the master called for them to begin. Lucy moved first flicking her whip into staff form and going after Erza with speeds that he didn't know she could reach. She really had gotten way faster.
Erza requipped her swords and met the woman head on. There was a flurry of movement as Lucy and Erza matched their weapons against each other. Gray for a moment was stunned at the fact that Natsu let his wife face Erza when he had to dodge a roar coming from him.
Gray got his head in the game quickly and hit him with a freezing arrow which Natsu jumped over and tried to hit him with a fist of flames. The two started to brawl in a very familiar manner that all Fairy Tail members were acquainted with.
Fists of flames were met with shields, ice attacked were jumped over or melted. Natsu's roar was dodged and Gray turned the floor to ice. The loss of balance didn't faze Natsu as he jumped over it and hit Gray with a wing attack that the master had never seen him use before.
Natsu and Gray were reaching speeds that the master didn't think they would be capable of reaching for a few more years as they fought. They were beating each other into the floor while Natsu somehow always maneuvered Gray away from Lucy and Erza.
Laxus grinned when he realized that Natsu was stronger than Gray magically. Gray however was keeping up because his defensive magic was strong enough to take the sheer power of Natsu's flames.
Lucy was tiring. She could match Erza but only for a minute or two. She couldn't keep up in such close quarters for long. She just didn't have the stamina so she tried to switch things up. Lucy sent a pulse of magic to her staff and broke them into escrima sticks.
Erza faltered for a moment shocked at the instant change of weapons. She had not been expecting a move like that from her. However that one moment was all she needed. Lucy round house kicked her in the stomach which sent Erza hurling backwards and it created distance between them. Lucy needed a breather and some distance to move onto the next part of her plan.
She called the Scorpio key to her hand. In a flash of golden light her spirit appeared and created a sandstorm before Lucy sent him home. She didn't want to fight with her spirits as her primary means she wanted to know how far she could go, mostly on her own.
She needed a distraction and Scorpio's sand was the perfect one which limited the visibility. Erza was confused. She knew that the flash of light meant that Lucy had called a spirit which meant that there was another opponent for her to fight. The problem was firstly the sand limited visibility and secondly no one was attacking her. She had no idea what was going to be coming next but she centered her stance and waited for someone to make a move.
When Lucy called out Scorpio and created that sandstorm Natsu and Gray were locked in close combat. As soon as the sand covered them Gray kicked Natsu in the chest and followed it by an ice lance which sent him flying through the air. Lucy was grateful for that. She switched back to whip form, caught her husband the ankle and flung him towards Erza.
As confused as Erza had been by all the sand she knew that Lucy was using it as a cover or a distraction. She was waiting for her to make her move so when she noticed Natsu coming at her, she smiled. It was a good trick she decided. One that required a lot of trust to trade opponent's mid-battle and it kept their enemies off balance.
Erza requipped into her flame empress armor and met Natsu's roar head on. There was once more a flurry of movement as punches and kicks where thrown between Erza and Natsu. Erza was shocked at how much strength Natsu managed to hit her with. She could feel her armor dent whenever he hit her and his flames were so much stronger than she remembered.
Lucy turned her attention towards Gray. She donned her Sagittarius Star dress and charged her arrow with Loke's power. The first shield that Gray made shattered when she hit it so he jumped over the next one. He was trying to get in close because those arrows were bloody powerful. Not even Natsu's roar could destroy his shields in one hit.
Once he was close enough he thought he would be able to force her into close combat. She seemed to be on the same level as he was when it came to close quarters. They both could keep up with Erza but only for a few minutes until he needed to gain some distance between them as well.
Gray assumed Lucy would get rid of the bow when he covered his hands in ice and tried to destroy the bow in her hand. Instead she flipped backwards, dodging his fist and fired another arrow. This one hit the ground shattering all the ice that he covered the floor in.
The arrow was so powerful it threw everyone in the rune cage backwards and off their feet while showering them with ice. Gray resisted the urge to smile. Natsu and Erza were still going at it but she was about to do something that might have knocked Natsu out cold. Lucy's arrows had them all flying through the air.
Gray landed on his ass painfully but he ignored it and flipped over. Gray planted his hands on the ground and called out ice geyser just as Lucy landed when she flipped through the air, avoiding the ice that shattered when she destroyed the floor. Lucy was thrown off her feet and then hit in the stomach. She smirked and started to levitate. Gray paused wondering what she was about to do.
Lucy went flying towards Erza ignoring Gray for the moment. She may have been hoping that he wouldn't make a move just yet. She only needed a couple more seconds. Natsu had pushed Erza backwards and managed to keep her off balance by unleashing a whole bunch of attacks that she had never seen before.
However it didn't take Erza long to assimilate to his new fighting style and pick up on what his news moves did. She was starting to pick up speed and start countering his attacks when Natsu reached out his hand seemingly grasping air. It took a moment for Erza's eyes widen when she realized what they were doing. By then he caught Lucy's hand and threw at her Erza.
Erza was impressed. They fought as one person switching between their opponents as easily breathing giving them both time to recover from the battle. They were able to sense where the other person was and they had trust in each other. They both allowed themselves to be thrown any which way and were still able to read each other's movements. It was something she had never seen before.
"Star dress Taurus." Lucy called out and her outfit changed again.
Erza dropped all thoughts about being impressed and went back to her fight. They were doing a really good job of putting up a really good fight and she was going to honor them by giving it her all.
Lucy punched Erza in the gut with the force of Taurus behind her. Natsu went back to brawling with Gray. Erza requipped her weapons and the two women once more exchanged blows. Lucy was glowing with Loke's power. While Erza was using her swords against her to absorb the impact from the lions power which probably would have destroyed any armor that she chose to wear. Lucy grinned at her. If she could keep up with her then maybe all she needed was a little more help.
Lucy called out Loke who immediately appeared in a flash of light and started to fight with glowing fists. It was similar to the ones that Lucy was currently using. The two were able to fight in perfect synch, not getting in each other's way as Erza was slowly but surely overcome by the relentless attacks.
Natsu grinned when Lucy managed to fight Erza on more or less equal terms. It was obvious that Erza was more experienced but Lucy could keep up and he also noticed the gleam in Erza's eyes. Erza respected Lucy as a mage. She acknowledged her as a worthy opponent and as a good fighter. He was proud of how far Lucy had come.
"Times up. It's a draw." Called out Mystogan and Natsu groaned. He knew that putting a timer on the match would ruin it but then he caught sight of Lucy's tired but proud smile and he stopped fighting.
It was Lucy's idea not to let the match go on for more than half an hour. If it did then they probably would never stop and get out of control. They had just wanted to test each other and while they all knew they had other cards to play those were for actual enemies. They didn't want to take the risk of hurting anyone so for now they all just called it a draw.
They called it a draw but in terms of injuries Gray and Erza were more worn down than Lucy and Natsu. If given enough time it was obvious that the couple would have won this match. Erza could also tell that Natsu had been holding back a lot of power. Mostly because he didn't want to break anything or hurt them or maybe because he wanted Lucy to fight more than him. He was giving her a chance to test her abilities and show off her abilities. Natsu didn't want to steal the spotlight from her.
"You are very skilled Lucy." Said Erza and the blonde woman beamed at her, "You were better than I heard. I'm glad I was able to keep up."
Natsu and Gray were arguing when Lucy sighed, "Natsu." She called out and the pink haired man was immediately at her side. He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her full on the lips and they all laughed when they heard Wendy 'eep' and cover her eyes.
"You did great, better than I expected." He whispered to her and Erza couldn't help but smile at what she was seeing. She had been worried that things wouldn't be the same and it wasn't but at the same time it was so much better. How could anyone deny him when he loved her like that? Lucy made him so happy it was hard not to accept her.
It was something new but then again a lot had changed in the past year and everything for the better at least that's what she believed. They were growing up and moving onto the next stages of their lives and that was just another part of life. She was glad that he had found someone to share his life with, someone that loved him just as fiercely as he loved her.
