A/N: Oh, man, this is a super short chapter. I'm sorry. I meant for this to be at the end of the last chapter, and I just realized that I had forgotten. ;-; See, this is another reason I like to finish a story before I start posting. Because I'm pretty dang forgetful. I thought about extending about the last bit in this since it's so short and it's been a while since my last update, but I decided against it. This isn't that kind of fic. Alright, despite the shortness, I hope you enjoy! (that's what he said haha I'm so sleepy I haven't gotten any sleep)

Later That Night

Lucy groaned as she entered the front door, very happy to be home. It was about midnight right now, so her pregnant stomach had already forced her into the bathroom for the night. She and Natsu had meant to go home before she was scheduled to get sick, but time had gotten away from the couple, and before they knew it, Lucy was throwing up in the bathroom.

Happy clambered onto the couch and grabbed the blanket that was haphazardly sitting there. "G'night," he sleepily called to his companions before turning over.

Lucy smiled to the exceed and patted his head before Natsu did the same. Then, they went into their bedroom. Lucy collapsed on her back into the bed and Natsu climbed in beside her. He gave her a kiss before going down to her still baby-bumpless belly. He kissed it, then laid his head lightly on it, his ear pressing against the cloth of Lucy's shirt on her stomach. Lucy could see him frown slightly after a few seconds. He then raised his head and moved Lucy's shirt up so that her belly was bare. Once again, he laid on it lightly, and was soon frowning slightly just as before.

Before Lucy could question him, Natsu sat up beside her and looked to her face. "I can't hear anything," he whined.

Lucy started laughing. "So that's- Wendy already told you that Baby's heartbeat is too quiet for even your ears!"

Natsu pouted. "Yeah, I guess." He layed down, and Natsu and Lucy were now facing each other. Lucy leaned forward and kissed Natsu's nose. He grinned at her and kissed her on the lips. "You know, Luce," he started. "That heartbeat sounded pretty girly."

Lucy gaped at Natsu. "What!? It was a heartbeat!"

"I still think that Baby's a girl."

Lucy smirked and rolled her eyes. Then, she rolled their bodies so that she was lying on top of him. She pressed a finger into Natsu's chest pointedly. Against her better judgement, she said, "Natsu, if you're so sure, then let's have a bet. I bet you 20,000J that this baby is a boy."

Natsu grinned up at her. "You're on. 20,000J." They shook on it before Natsu gave a short laugh. "Even though we share money."

"Alright, fine. If it's a boy, I get to use 20,000J of our money on whatever I want, and if it's a girl, then you can use 20,000J of our money on whatever you want."

Natsu snickered. "And I suppose 'whatever I want' will be diapers."

Lucy laughed as well. "Hey, you catch on quickly!" She leaned down and kissed Natsu, who eagerly kissed back.

When they separated, Natsu spoke again. "Hey, Luce? When'd Porlyusica say you were supposed to have Baby?"

Lucy thought back to earlier that day. "I think she said March 30th." They both grinned.

"I can't wait," Natsu said, and then they kissed again. Lucy pressed herself into him as they kissed. Natsu wasn't sure if it was on purpose, but his internal question was answered when they separated and he opened his eyes to see her hooded, dark eyes boring into his.

"Hey, Natsu," she whispered a little huskily.

"Y-yeah?" He croaked out, suddenly finding his mouth and throat dry.

"I can remember something else that Porlyusica said today." Natsu knew exactly what she was referring to. They'd both been wanting this for the past month. Natsu eagerly turned them so that he was lying on top of her, and they kissed again. Hard.

A/N: Again, I'm sorry it's so short!

Anyways, news on the monarchy AU I've mentioned: It's called Lucid, and I'm almost done writing chapter two. That may sound like I haven't done much, but I tend to edit as I'm writing, so it always takes forever to get a chapter done. Once I finish writing the third chapter, I think I may post a preview of the first chapter. What do you guys think?

See you next time!
