The morning after

The sun peaked through the small gap in the curtains. The light got in Natsus' eyes, waking him up. The pinkettes lightly groaned from being woken up. His oxyn eyes slowly opened, taking a minute to adjust to the light. Last night suddenly came back to him and a heavy blush covered his cheeks. He looked over his shoulder at Gajeel. The ravenette now had his arms wrapped around Natsus' waist and his face nuzzled into his neck. The 18yr old smiled softly. He knew the heavily pierced teen was a pretty heavy sleeper but he was still careful about prying Gajeels' arms from his waist. His reflection in the full length mirror in the corner on his way to the bathroom caught his eye. The shirt Gajeel gave him hung off one of his shoulders, showing all the hickies Gajeel left, and ended just below his butt making the blacks briefs he wore almost disappear. The shirt almost swallowed him. He looked back at the ravenette still asleep and rapped his arms around himself. A soft smile made its way onto his face, thinking this was the first time he didn't regret sleeping with someone. With all his past boyfriends and hookups he never felt right after. But last night with Gajeel just felt right.

After using the bathroom he went downstairs to the kitchen. He didn't worry about the fact that his hair was messier than normal or that he didn't have pants on since he was the only person awake, or so he thought. When he rounded the corner to the kitchen a short girl with blue hair stood in front of the coffee machine.

"Levy" he made sure to keep his voice down. The 18yr old bookworm jumped and spun around.

"Natsu! What are you doing here" she whisper-yelled. She had on one of Karas' metal band t-shirts that looked more like a dress on her, stopping just below her knees.

"I could ask you the same thing" he put a hand on his hip, well aware he had on one of Gajeels' shirts on. Levy gapped like a fish out of water before sighing, "I came here with Kara after the party last night". Natsu saw the hickies littering her shoulder and collarbone.

"I see you two had some fun" he motioned to the hickies, making Levy blush.

"You don't look any better Dragnell" she clapped back, "Not to mention I heard YOU screaming". He chuckled, blushing and scratching the back of his head.

"Fair, I'm just surprised I can walk or talk right now" he made his own coffee as he and Levy talked until Gajeel walked in wearing dark grey sweat pants. A hand in his shoulder length hair, pulling a few strands from his face. He cocked an eyebrow once he saw Levy sitting on one of the stools at the island and Natsu standing opposite her.

"My sister drag ya home or something" his voice was gravely from disuse and that he just woke up.

"I came here willingly ya lug" she countered with an eye roll. He chuckled at the nickname she gave him.

"I'm kinda surprised you're walking around" he directed at Natsu who blushed and looked away muttering a 'shut up'. The ravenette and bluenette chuckled at the teens embarrassment. Gajeel planted a kiss to Natsus' cheek as he passed to get his own thing of coffee. Levy watched Natsu smile as Gajeel behind him, a hand ghosting over his side.

"I take it something, other than you two hooking up, happened last night" Levy had on a shit eating grin.

"Other than me finally not regretting it when I woke up, not really except I found out he's Bi" the pinkettes took a sip of his coffee while he let her process that info.

"What, are you saying you regret sleeping with everyone but Gajeel" her eyes were wide.

"Yup"

"How many guys have you slept with" her head cocked to the side like a curious dog.

"Maybe ten total and I never felt right after each one" he said.

"Except for Gajeel" Natsu simply nodded. Gajeel, who'd been quietly making his coffee while listening to the two 18yr olds talk, placed his cup on the counter before wrapping his arms around the pinkettes' waist and his head on his shoulder.

"Good ta know I'm unique Spitfire" he grumbled.

"You're unique in many more ways Metalhead"
