Here is the newest chapter! It is a bit short, like all my other chapters, but I hope it is satisfying.
I have many of the chapters already written out and only a few left that I have yet to write. One of such chapters is the one where they finally get together. I am a bit stumped on how I should go about having them get together. If anyone has any ideas, just leave it in a review. If I choose to use your idea, or a part of your idea, I will tell you. I would really appreciate the help.
I hope you like this chapter.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own The story Fairy Tail.
ENJOY!
Chapter 11
Happy the Meanie!
Happy, Natsu and I are walking back from our last mission. We would have been riding the train, but Natsu stubbornly refused. Luckily, our mission took place only a town over so it is not too much of a walk. I am in a good mood, despite walking, because we were able to collect the full award this time. That means I don't have to worry about rent for the next two months, plus I now have some money to spare.
Natsu, who obviously has been affected by my good mood, decided it would be fun to scare the shit out of me by picking me up suddenly, bridal style, and hold me away from his body, making me feel as if I could fall at any second. I go completely still in shock, not wanting to be dropped. When the shock wears off, I try to throw my arms around his neck to give myself some stability.
"N-Natsu, what are you doing! Please put me down! Don't you dare drop me!" I beg hysterically, still trying to throw my arms around him, but it is so hard.
He shakes his head mockingly and laughs at me. He pretends to drop me a couple times, scaring me near to death, but he does not actually drop me.
Despite my hysterics, I can still manage coherent thought, well, at least enough to come to an important realization. Natsu would never drop me. No matter what, Natsu would never drop me. Just like that, I am not scared anymore.
Idly, I marvel at his strength. I know Natsu is strong, but it is hard to hold someone away from your body in princess style, especially when said person is desperately struggling and squirming about.. He still hasn't shown any sign of struggle, and I know that he could hold me like this for a long time without any wear. I can feel his strong arms on my back and thighs. They feel nice, safe and . . . oddly attractive.
I push that thought out of my head quickly. Nothing good can come of that thought.
Now that I am no longer hysteric, it is easy to get my arms around his neck to hug myself to him. I cling to his muscular form because even thought I know he won't drop me, it is better to be careful, and I can use this position to my leverage.
"Natsu," I whisper softly in his ear. I hear hip gulp. "Please let me down," I whisper, trying to infuse some of my persuasion power in it.
"No-pe," he said, popping the p.
Not giving up I try again. I nuzzle my head in neck for a second, before I get really close to his ear, where my lip is almost touching it. "Please," I whisper breathily into his ear, my lips accidently touching the rim of his ears.
I could have sworn I felt a shiver rip through him, but I must have been imagining it because not a second later he says in his usual strong voice, "Nope."
I frown at him, not liking not getting my way and a full-blown argument ensues between us. It was more for fun with only a tint of actual annoyance and anger between us. Natsu and I argue all the time. Rarely is there any actual anger between us. This is just what we do. For some reason, whenever we argue, there is an amount of excitement from it. Not just from me, I get the distinct feeling he enjoys it to, though I have no idea why we both enjoy it so much.
We are pulled out of our argument back into the real world when an annoying cat decides to interrupt us.
"You like each other," Happy says teasing.
Natsu and I stop fighting when we hear that, and I look away from Natsu blushing.
"Ha-Happy," I yell out, blushing heavily in embarrassment. "T-that's not true."
Happy doesn't listen and goes on to sing, "Natsu and Lucy, sitting in a tree, K – I – S – S – I – N – G . First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the baby in the baby chair."
"Happy," I screech, and then I feel Natsu wince in pain and I feel bad knowing I hurt him due to his sensitive hearing. Despite feeling bad, I take his moment of distraction and set myself loose from Natsu.
"Come here you stupid cat," I growl at him, stalking up to him. I lunge at him only to have him fly away. Frustrated, I start to chase him all over the place without any success. I finally have to give up due to exhaustion and realizing how stupid it is to try to chase him when he has the advantage of being a winged creature.
An idea pops into my head.
"Okay then," I say in a sugary sweet tone, pretending I have given up. "I guess you don't want the fish I brought with me. I guess I am going to have to eat it all by myself," I say, feigning disappointment.
I reach into my backpack as if to take out some fish and I slowly look around for the nonexistent fish, waiting for him to take the bait.
"Wait, Lucy!" Happy cries out, making his way back toward me. He took the bait, hook line and sinker.
I wait until he gets close enough and when he does I grab him.
Realizing he has been tricked he struggles to get out of my arms, but to no avail. Deciding it's time to get revenge I start giving him a nuggie. I ignore his cries of pain and pleads to have mercy. I only release him when I feel that justice has been served. He rushes straight out of my arms when I release him as if the devil himself was chasing him and into Natsu's waiting arms.
"Natsu, Lucy is a big meanie," he cries into Natsu's vest, blubbering like a baby.
"I know," Natsu says, agreeing with him.
"Hey," I cry our indignantly. "He deserved that" I say trying to defend myself.
They both ignore me, consulting in each other about how mean I am.
With an angry huff, I storm off, leaving those two behind. I don't make it too far before they catch up to me.
"Wait up," I hear Natsu yell out to me, not far behind. I speed my pace up in response.
"Why should I? I'm just a big meanie!" I respond sarcastically, bitterly.
"Come on now, don't be like that," he whines, finally reaching me. He stops right in front of me, forcing me to stop less I want to bump into him.
"You know we didn't mean it," he continues, looking me straight in the eyes.
I blush when I see he is telling the truth. Natsu, seeing my acknowledgment of what he said, lets out a whooping cheer and, with vigor, hugs me. I stand stiffly in his hug, my blush darkening even deeper.
"I didn't say I forgive you," I say stubbornly.
"We both know that you have," He says cockily, but stating the truth.
I let myself sag into him, letting the tension fall away, to show him that I forgive him. He tightens his arms around me in response and I snuggle into him. The moment, again, is broken by Happy.
"You liiiiiikkkee each other," Happy says annoyingly.
This time, I don't bother responding. I tear myself out of Natsu's arms and keep walking as if I didn't hear him. I really don't want to go through that drama again. So, for the rest of the walk back home, I ignored happy and his constant gibbering's about Natsu and I. Natsu walked by my side, and we again walked in uninterrupted happiness.
The dragon was happy at the cat's words, but ultimately disappointed at the bunny's vehement denial. The only thing that made it better was the fact that he knew the bunny likes him, even when she denies it. Also, when the bunny was trying to get the dragon to put her down by whispering in his ear and when her lips touched his ears, he really, really, really liked it. The dragon can't wait until the time where they can be like that more often. It doesn't matter too much though; the bunny shall always be his.
I hope you enjoyed it!
