Prompt #2 - Pet names
"Lushi, I'm home!"
The yellow-haired wizard jumped up, frightened by the loud voice that had suddenly consumed her fortress of solitude. She lowered her quill, now feeling the repercussions of writing for the whole day, and laid it beside the newest drafts of The Adventures of Iris.
Lucy got up from her seat and started to stretch her striff muscles. A smile tugged at her lips from the sensation of the moonlight shining down on her. However, her serene mood was shortened at the sight of Natsu.
More specifically, the bandages around his arms and body.
She rushed to him with lightning speed. Her hands ran all over his smooth, tanned skin, searching for any more wounds. Out of all the ways to come home to her, he chose to return scarred.
"Why do you like making me worry so much?" Lucy sighed. Chesnut eyes glistened with unshed tears. "You, reckless idiot!" She exclaimed, pounding at his chest with her fists.
Natsu chuckled, not affected by the flurry of attacks. He simply grabbed both of her hands and grinned, stealing a swift kiss from her rasberry-flavored lips. "Stop hitting me, you weirdo. Didn't you miss me?"
Lucy scoffed. "Of course, I did, dork."
Natsu smiled, obviously content with her answer. He brought one bandaged around her waist and brought the blonde impossibly closer to him, whilst the other hand simply traced the huge swell of her stomach. "And how is my favorite girl doing?"
Lucy giggled. She wrapped her arms around his neck. "Nashi is doing fine. She kept kicking and moving around this morning. Can't wait til' she gets outta me. I don't blame her though. I missed my dragon, too."
"Well, whaddya say, Luce?" Natsu bent down, a cunning gleam shining is his pitch black eyes, and lifted the pregnant woman into his arms with ease. "Wanna have a ton o' pancakes for dinner? With hot sauce on top?"
Lucy pumped her fists into the air, happy her cravings were to be satiated in a moment.
"I'm all fired up!"
