"You know, you still look really beautiful with your stomach like that." Natsu whispered.

"Shut up." Lucy said, holding her stomach.

It's been 7 months since Lucy found out she was pregnant. Now her stomach has stretched out considerably, and she's become extremely moody. Graduation was also about 2 months away, and every senior was getting ready for prom, exams, and college.

"It's true, though." Natsu said, gently squeezing the hand that she was holding.

"Thank you, but nevertheless, everyone is looking at me with a disgusted expression." Lucy replied, in a depressed tone.

"Remember what I said. Forget those assholes. You have your closest friends, and you have me." Natsu said, smiling at her.

"I love you." Lucy smiled.

"I love you, too."

They both continued walking down the hall, hand in hand, until they reached the lunchroom. There, they split into their tables.

"Hey, guys." Lucy said, slowly sitting down.

"Hey Lu-chan! How you feeling?" Levy asked. Her wavy blue hair was a bit longer, but she still had her yellow headband on.

"Good. Thanks for asking, Levy."

"Hey, Lucy. Do you know if you're having a boy or a girl?" Erza asked. Her scarlet hair was fixed in beachy waves.

"I'm not sure. Natsu and I decided to be surprised and find out the gender when the baby is born."

"Oh, that's so cute. I think that's wonderful." Juvia answered. Her cerulean hair reached her shoulder, and was cut in a paige boy.

"Lucy, if you need any help with the baby, Alzack and I will be happy to help." Bisca said. Her hair was still the same length, but it was in layers. So it fell to her shoulders in a stylish cut.

"Thanks, Bisca. That means a lot." Lucy smiled.

"Lucy, if you need any," *hiccup* "cash, I could lend you some." Cana hiccupped. She decided to get rid of her wavy brunette tresses when she complained of them getting into her drink all the time. Her short pixie cut complimented her tomboy-ish attitude.

"Thanks, Cana." Lucy replied.

"Lucy, what college are you going to go to?" Bisca asked.

"I'm going to UCLA."

"That's where we're going!" The girls replied in unison.

"Really? That's great." Lucy smiled. She was honestly very happy about going to UCLA.

"Oh, Lu-chan. Are you and Natsu going to get married?" Levy asked.

Lucy sighed. "I don't know. He hasn't really said anything about marriage."

"Would you like me to go and talk to him, Lucy?" Erza said, cracking her knuckles.

"N-No. It's alright, Erza." Lucy was beyond terrified about what she would do to Natsu.

"Hey, girls."

All the girls looked up to see Evergreen walking to their table. She was very conceited, and thought that she was the queen of the school. Ironically, Erza was originally given that title, so Evergreen has been rivals with her ever since. She has brown hair and thin glasses, and was always trying to open her blouse to show off her bust.

"Hi, Evergreen!" Mira exclaimed. The white haired beauty was liked by everyone, and always tried to be nice.

"Hello, Mirajane. Looking lovely as always." Evergreen replied, with sincerity in her voice. Then she looked at everyone.

"I just wanted everyone to know that the prom is now moved to June 2. Hurry and get your dresses now, girls." She walked off.

"Ugh." Lucy said, slowly setting her head down on the table. "Fan-freaking-tastic. More pressure on me."

"It's okay, Lu-chan." Levy said, patting Lucy's hand.

"Thnks. But I fmm reay frufraded." Lucy mumbled.

"Um, sorry. What?" Levy asked.

"She said she feels really frustrated." Juvia said.

Suddenly, Natsu came over and sat down with them.

"What's wrong? Again?" Natsu sighed.

Lucy put her head up. "I feel like crap."

Natsu put his arm around her. "It's alright. I know, it's really stressful right now. But don't worry. I'll help you with everything, and so will all your friends."

"Thanks, Natsu." Lucy smiled.

"Oh! Natsu, are you gonna ask-" Levy stopped talking when Juvia plopped her hand over her mouth.

Natsu looked at them with a confused face. "Ask what?"

"Nothing. Never mind." Levy replied once Juvia let go of her mouth.

"Natsu! What do you want the baby to be? A boy or a girl?" Bisca asked.

"A boy." He grinned.

"What if it's a girl?" Lucy asked.

"It would be a lot harder." Natsu laughed. Lucy slapped him on the head.

"Personally, I don't care if the baby is a boy or a girl." Lucy said, looking at her stomach and smiling.

"Personally, I care if the baby is a girl." Natsu mumbled. Lucy slapped him on his head again.

She smiled. "Baka."
