He stood with his hands gripping the sink. The water cool water was running and droplets were falling from his maroon hair and nose from where he splashed himself. Looking at himself in the mirror he could see the darkness in his own purple eyes. He had been a part of Fairy Tail for a little over a month and still could not get a grip on the crazy ass guild. Within the first week the little blue dragon slayer had helped fix his right eye so that he could use it without losing the dragon lacrima, and all he had was a thin scar.
Turning his head upwards he smirks at the sound of a thud. 'Speaking of crazy asses, I can't believe the shit that comes from upstairs.' He lived just below Fairy Tail's celestial wizard and basically got 24-hour entertainment. 'The shit that comes out of her head is ridiculous, her smirks not to mention those spirits of hers.'
"Damnit Natsu, I told you to stop climbing through my fucking window!" the blonde could be heard easily through the floor.
'Fire-crotch needs to learn about personal space.' He thinks to himself shaking his head as her leaves his bathroom. Looking out the window he sees the sun just starting to peek out, the sky still mostly dark. He stands at the window for a few moments, just taking in the view of people starting to move around the street.
Moving from there he goes to his fridge and grabs a container of apple seeds that were left for him at his door a week after he moved in. Crushing a few seeds, he adds it to his coffee. 'A drop of Cyanide a day keeps the doctor away', he smirks at his little version of the quote. Tilting his head up he listens to his upstairs neighbor.
"Come on Luce, let's go on a mission!" The fire dragon slayer says loudly.
'Oh yes so you can burn all my clothes, get up lost and destroy the whole area.' The celestial mage thinks sarcastically, unknowing of the eavesdropper just below her. Looking at her partner she sighs, "We just got back from a mission yesterday Natsu. Besides, haven't you already met Master's quota for towns destroyed this week?"
"Well yeah, but I promise that I won't destroy the next one." Cobra could practically see the pouting the other slayer was doing. "And we won't even be near a town this time."
"Oh, and where would we be if I did go on this mission with you?" The eyebrow lift that Lucy was most likely doing when she asked this was a thing of beauty, but the thoughts were absolutely fantastic. 'I swear to god if this is another vulcan mission then I am going to have Virgo punish him.'
Soon images of the pink haired maid whipping a crying Natsu emerge in his head. He can't help himself as he starts to laugh, almost spitting out his doctored coffee, 'By the gods I love her imagination.'
"We would be investigating moving island!" Natsu says excited, Cobra could hear him bouncing on his feet. "It is always in the water and nobody has ever seen people, or animals. So, there is no way that I could destroy a town this time!"
'By the starts he is an idiot.' Shaking her head Lucy responds. "You know we would have to get on a boat to get to this island, right?" She asks calmly, "And to get to the boat we have to go to Hargeon, which means going on a train and then we would have to do it all over again when we come back. Is that something you really want to do Natsu?"
'Transportation!' There is a thud on the floor above as Natsu falls to his knees gripping his stomach. "Uugggh. Noooo."
Lucy kneels beside him and pats his back. "That's what I thought." Standing again she looks down at the pink haired slayer her voice sweet as Antifreeze. "Now, Natsu can you do something for me?"
"Uh huh."
"Get the hell OUT OF MY ROOM!" The Celestial Mage's voice is so loud that Cobra cringes knows that the other slayer's ears are ringing. There is scrambling as the boy leaves and cobra smirks as her looks through his bedroom door towards his own window and sees a flash of pink drop down. 'Stupid boys and their stupid brains, Stars just let me sleep.' He hears her climb back into her bed and quickly fall to sleep.
Shaking his head and chuckling he finishes off his coffee and rinses it with hot water making sure to get any poison out of it. He gets dressed for the day and leaves the apartment and heads for the guild.
