Aah, finally after many tests, exams, finals, and studying, I am back!~
This chapter is made special for you guys, since I have poor writing habits. ;-;

Put me in hand-cuffs and take me away now, I don't deserve to live knowing you guys have been trying to fend for yourselves.

T^T

I missed you guys so much~

Please, enjoy. ^-^

And remember...

Disclaimer: I don't own Fairy Tail, because I'm obviously too amazing to be tamed. All there would be in every single episode is fluff!~


Chapter 6: Apologies and Secrets (including stalkers)

Normal POV

Lucy made it back to her house without breaking the controller in her hand, but she had cracked it so much that it would probably glitch whenever she used it. She honestly doesn't know why she made such a big deal about that. The blonde had only known Natsu for two measly weeks.

Who falls in love in such a short matter of time?

Certainly not her, a girl who has protected her heart after dealing with a rude man, better known as her father.

She fell to her knees and began wiping her eyes.

In all honesty, she and Natsu had spent every day together since they met, and this included video games, going out to eat- that was always Natsu's favorite thing to do-, and going shopping.

There were frantic footsteps and then a shaky knock at her door. With the salty tears getting in her mouth, her voice sounded broken, "Go a-away."

"Luce, come on, open up."

"Just go away!"

"Why are you so upset?"

"I d-don't even know."

"Just open the door."

"No, leave me alone. Go be with your girlfriend."

Natsu let his hand fall from the doorknob as his eyes widened from shock.

"Luce-e." He could hear her sobs from the other side of the door.

"Lucy, she isn't my girlfriend. Why would you be upset anyways?"

"I don't know." She thought about it. Maybe she was scared because if he had a girlfriend, they wouldn't be able to spend time together like they used to.

"Open the door, now."

"I just want to be alone."

He heard another click from inside the house, probably her going in her room. The pinkette sighed and slid his back against the door, willing to wait for his friend.

From the other side, Lucy was in her room, her eyes red and puffy, and her plush dog hugging her chest in an attempt to ease the pain. Soon, she fell asleep, thinking about something other than what had just happened.

Natsu looked around her house and a smirk began to dance across his lips.

"Window's unlocked." He quickly climbed up the ledge and pushed ever so lightly on the glass. Instead of going in her room quietly, he fell on his face and let out a muffled groan. Lucy stirred in her sleep, but otherwise, she didn't wake up.

"Phew." Natsu stood up and walked by her bedside. "Lucy you're my best friend, I wouldn't just leave you for some piece of trash." He ruffled her hair and scoot beside her. He knew he'd get Lucy kicked for this later, but he didn't care right now. He was tired too. The boy slung his arm around her waist and placed his head in the crook of her neck, smelling the scent of vanilla and strawberries. Then, he fell asleep too.

The blonde woke up, her hair disheveled and a firm grip plastered to her. She muttered something incoherent and adjusted her eyes. She blushed 100 shades of red when she saw Natsu's sleeping face in front of her, her hands crushed against his chest. The girl grew flustered and started to get angry. She let out a growl, then sent an uppercut to Natsu's jaw, sending him flying into her wall, and oh boy, he was going to pay to fix it.

"NATSU YOU PERVERT! GET OUT OF MY ROOM!" Lucy hissed at him and he rubbed his head sleepily.

Half awake he asked, "Do you forgive me yet, Luce?"

She sighed in defeat, "Fine. I know you didn't mean to, and I shouldn't have over-reacted about that."

The boy grinned cheekily and jumped in the air. "So what are we gonna do now?"

She glanced at the clock, 5:21, "Well I guess we could go to the mall. When do you work?"

"Um, not until tomorrow."

"Good, because I need a new video game." Lucy smiled, and not a fake or forced smile, but a genuine one. The smile Natsu had grown so fond of. Without warning, Natsu crushed her into a hug, making her blush redder than before.

"Thanks for forgiving me Luce, I wouldn't know what to do without you."

"N-Natsu, there's no need to get all mushy with me." She tried pushing him away, but he didn't budge. He wanted this moment to last forever. The girl that fit so snug in his arms. The girl that could kick his ass at video games. This girl was amazing. He was lucky to see her every single damn day.

He finally let her go and gave a wide smile. "Ready to go Luce?"

"Hell yeah."

They raced down the stairs to get to the mall, and Natsu won. "Lucy, you're so slow."

The girl stuck her tongue out at him, "Jerk." One question still lingered in her thoughts though. It was weighing her down. "What did he tell Lisanna?" We already fixed one problem today, we don't need to worry about another, we can save that one for a different day.

"Luce, what's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing, I'm fine." She smiled shyly and was snapped back to reality. Hopefully she'd forget all about that once they got to the mall.

They walked along the pavement and made it to the front entrance of the mall. The first place they spotted was the game store. The two exchanged glances and smiled widely. They gave each other a high five and quickened their pace to get to their heaven. Those cute little dorks.

A few yards away a devilish Mira and Levy were spying on the two with a pair of binoculars.

"So this is what Lu-chan has been doing all this time?"

"Apparently , don't they make the cutest couple!" Mira practically squealed and Levy giggled a bit.

"Mira I don't think this is very healthy for us to be doing."

"Details, details…It's not like we're stalking them Levy! Oh no, they're getting out of our sight!" Mira tugged Levy behind her and they hid in a shrub not far from Lucy and Natsu.

Levy sweat a bit, "We kind of are stalkers…" She looked back to the couple engrossed in games.

"Oh Lu-chan…you and Natsu do make a nice couple..."


Just want to point out, I don't hate Lisanna ^~^ She is too sweet~

But if she ever flirts with Natsu too much, imma bring the beat down on her ass :o

Anyways...

It has been such a long time ;-;

FORGIVE ME! T^T

Don't worry though, if you thought this was a short chappy, that's okay.
