Lucy POV

I came back to the mansion after dropping Elizabeth off at school, so I could go out. Usually, when I come home I just start writing some chapters for my book I'm going to publish in a couple of months. Without Natsu and Elizabeth at the house, I have a lot of free time. Elizabeth's at school and Natsu at the gym training for his fight against The Thunder God in a couple of months.

I went upstairs to take a shower since I didn't take one last night. When I came out I went to my drawer to look for some underwear I couldn't find. As I was looking through my other drawers, I didn't see any. I had decided to go to Natsu's room since I sometimes leave my clothes in there.

I looked through some of his drawers to see there weren't any. I even had gone through the dirty clothes to see there wasn't any. I started to recall what had happened to them as I looked into the trashcan to see a ripped pair of underwear. Oh, I should have known, Natsu! Every time we do it, he always rips off my underwear not being able to control his strength. It turns me on more when he's being a beast like that in bed, but that results in no underwear.

I guess today I'm going to Victoria Secrets/Pink to go get me some underwear. It's a Monday morning, so not that many people should be there. People should mostly be at work. I can probably swing by there and get me some underwear, go to Starbucks, maybe go to the park and read a book, and then go pick Elizabeth up from school

I went to my closet to put on a one-piece striped blue and white jumpsuit with some sandals. I grabbed my purse and phone then started to make my way downstairs so I could leave. When I made it down there I had jumped once I had saw Natsu. He looked taken back when he had seen me. "Luce," he observed me as I looked at him. "Natsu, I thought you were at the gym with Guildarts," "Yeah, I was there, but Guildarts had to go do something, and almost everything at the gym was taken by somebody so I just came back here to come workout," he explained.

"Oh ok, then have a good workout," I smiled as I was about to leave until he had stopped me. "Where are you going?" he asked. "I'm going to Victoria Secrets," I simply told him as he cocked his eyebrow. "For what?" "Underwear, you ripped up all of the mines up," he started to think about it until he had realized. "Sorry Luce, you know I can't help myself when it comes to you," I felt my face heat up as he got close to me.

"Let me come, I'll pay for everything," he offered as I shook my head. "There's no need for that," I told him as he seemed a bit disappointed. "Why don't you want me to come, I'll pay for everything," I had sighed and said: "Because it's a girl store it will look unusual if you were in there as well, and plus I have my own money," I told him. "Well at least let me drive you there?" he asked grabbing his keys. It didn't seem like he was going to give up, so I decided to give in.

"Okay!" I told him. "Question?" he had asked me as we left the house. "Yes?" "Do you have on underwear?" he looked down at my bottoms as I felt my face heat up. "No, that's why I am wearing a one-piece," I saw his face heat up as he bit down on his bottom lip. I'm not gonna lie, he looks so sexy right now. "What's wrong Salamander, you can't handle an hour without getting hard or horny?" I smirked as he looked off into space.

"Hey I can handle not doing nothing to you, but if a guy puts his hands on you while we're there I'm breaking his fucking neck," he hissed. "Good to know, but let's kill nobody today," I nervously laughed. I hope he's not serious about doing that, but knowing Natsu he is a man of his word. We had made it to his fire dragon car and left the house.

We started to head towards the mall area and we were listening to the radio. "So what were your plans for the day?" I had asked him. "I was going to ummmmm," I looked at him funny because he was thinking about it. "Natsu are you trying to lie to me?" I asked him as he answered "NO!" and he looked nervous when he shouted it. Just him shouting it lets me know that he is nervous or doesn't want to tell me.

"Ok, you don't have to tell me," I pouted as I felt him worriedly look at me. "I'm sorry I don't want to say it," "That's okay Natsu you don't have to tell me," I fakely smiled. "Okay look, I wanted to prepare a surprise for you and when I came home you were still at the house which had surprised me," he exclaimed. "Okay, but you also seemed nervous about something else," "Yes, you not wearing any under-garments with a bunch of perverts out there in the world and dressing nice," he dryly said as I looked at him on that last part.

"Excuse me, it surprises you that I like to dress nicely?" I gave him the look as he got nervous. "Luce that's not what I'm trying to say, it's just that-" "What that you thought I would be doing something?" "I mean kinda," he squeaked a bit. "Natsu can you please pull over?" I nicely asked before I popped off on him. He was gonna see a side of me, that no one would ever want to see.

"Come on Lucy," he begged as I glared at him. "Okay I'll pull over," he sighed and drove towards the sidewalk. We were at the mall which was outside, so I got out with my purse and slammed the door.

I swear I hate it when people think of me as a girl who likes to get around or look for options. He didn't have to say at all why he was there so early. Since when has Natsu ever planned a surprise for me? And everything was taken up at the gym on a Monday morning where people rush to work, I've personally been at that gym, and there are barely any people there, and Guildarts always keeps Natsu in the gym.

I had made it to Victoria's Secret and walked into the store. As to my surprise, there were only two or three people there. Good nobody's here on a Monday morning! I started to walk to the section they had the underwear and was looking to see which set I wanted. Do I want boy shorts, hipsters, chester, thong, bikini, or g-string?

I usually get the bikini or g-strings, but every time someone looks at my underwear in my drawer they always give me a weird expression. I sometimes wonder is my underwear that unique? I buy the boy shorts just to wear around the house, but ever since I started living with Natsu for the job I couldn't wear them around the house like I would around mines. I decided to get five of each from each section, so I wouldn't have to stress over deciding which ones I wanted.

I went up to the counter to see the cashier smiling at me. I put the bag on the counter and she started to scan them. My phone had buzzed and I took it out of my purse to see it was a message from Natsu apologizing. I 'tsked' and put it back in my purse.

"What's wrong?" the lady at the cashier had asked me. "Guys," I sighed. "Any specific one r various of them?" "Specific, my boyfriend came home from his training I guess to spy on me, to see if I was fooling around with somebody," I explained. "It happens, it just means they care," "I know, but that also means he doesn't trust me. I hate when a relationship is not filled with trust and we've been going out for almost a year," I cried out.

"Almost a year?" she asked me. "Yeah, our anniversary is supposed to be next month, I'm not sure if he knows or not, but I'm planning a surprise for him," I smiled at the thought of it. "That's so cute, I wish I could celebrate something like that with my single self," I giggled a little bit. "But whoever your boyfriend is you should forgive him, this sort of thing happens in relationships," she suggested. "You're right, I should go apologies for my sudden outburst," I paid for my underwear.

"Good luck!" she waved as I waved back. I didn't leave the store yet and decided to go on the other side to Victoria Secret's. I decided to go buy white lingerie, but when I went to go pay for it, the cashier at this counter had smiled at me like 'I know what's going to happen' type of smile.

I blushed and had covered my face as I left the store. I saw Natsu car parked from a far distance. He was the only one there, but I saw somebody else's car parked where he was. It was a girl who looked like she was wearing a disguise and she was talking to Natsu. I stopped and decided to go hide behind a tree to see what was going on. The two of them were talking for a couple of minutes until I saw the woman go to her car and get a bag.

She walked back to Natsu and handed him the bag. I was curious about what was in the bag. I couldn't see what Natsu was doing, but he was looking in the bag. I saw him crack a smile (I think, I couldn't see that far) and he got out of his fire dragon car to hug the woman. I felt my heart rapidly beat and I was starting to breathe a little too hard. I kept wondering what was going to happen next between the two as I watched.

Natsu seemed so excited about what she had put in the bag. The two of them started to talk for about ten minutes and nothing was happening. I decided to see what would Natsu do if I had texted him. I sent an "I accept your apology but are you around the area I can't find you?" text to him. It said it was delivered on my phone and I looked at Natsu to see what he would do.

Natsu had pulled his phone out of his pocket then he looked at it. I saw him smile which warmed my heart and he told the lady something then gave her a quick hug which ruined the moment. She waved and walked away towards her car while Natsu got in his and I realized I gotta get back to the entrance of the store. I started to jog towards the store before Natsu could see me.

I decided to stop where I was at, so it could look like I was looking around for him. He had pulled up where I was at and smiled at me. "Hey Luce!" for some reason I can never stay mad at him with that toothy grin of his. I got into the car and we drove off from the mall. "You find what you were looking for?" he asked me as I nodded. "You?" I simply asked trying to see if he will tell the truth.

"No!" he lied.

"Are you sure you didn't get anything?" I asked again.

"I'm positive!" he assured.

I cocked my eyebrow up at him because I knew he wasn't telling the truth. "You meet up with anybody?" I asked him as he shook his head and said: "Nope!". He just lied to me again. "What's in the bag?" he asked me. "Underwear, what's in your bag?" I asked him trying to find out. "Luce what bag are you talking back?" he tried to play it off.

"I don't know, I'm just being random," I slumped down into the seat. I looked outside the window as we were passing a lot of trees. This kinda had me wondering, is Natsu cheating on me? Is he seeing someone else that is better than me? Why was he at the mansion so early when he was supposed to be at the gym? Who was that woman he was talking to? And most importantly what was in that bag she gave him?

All these questions piled up into my head and none of them were being answered. I know one thing for sure, I'm going to find out what's in that bag.
