So I'm still trying to figure out how this site functions. Also keeping an idea going is extremely difficult for me. I'm hoping that this isn't getting boring either. Enjoy...
It was night and Lucy was snuggled in her bed with Natsu in his usual place beside her, with his arm around her waist holding her close. But this time was different, he had come home with her, and instead of him just inviting himself into her bed she asked if he wanted to sleep over. At first he was thinking she meant the couch but she had moved over to the bed and patted beside her.
Part way through the night Lucy awoke abruptly as her wrist was burning. Looking down however, Natsu was nowhere near it and it wasn't on fire. Lucy looked to her mating mark and noticed that it was the source of the burning, however it was black instead of blue.
She looked frantically to Natsu who was tossing violently in his sleep, muttering something about pain, and loosing someone or something. "Natsu, wake up, you're dreaming, it's only a dream." She said sweetly as she tried to wake him.
"Lu…cy," he said, barely audible. "It was horrible," he continued, eyes widening to see her silky hair framing her face gracefully.
"I know," she whispered whilst leaning down to hug him tightly, reassuring him that she wasn't going anywhere. "My mark, it glowed black, and started to burn. I think that mean that you were having a nightmare." She explained with her head against his chest.
"I'm sorry," he whispers, "truly."
"It's ok, like you said at the guild, at least I will know, and then I can stop it. Now you don't have to endure a nightmare anymore. I'm not leaving you ok. So you don't have to worry." She said slightly muffled as she had her head still pressed into his chest.
She looked up at her mate and gave him a small smile, which brightened her whole face. He instantly became happier seeing this sight. He leant down and placed a passionate kiss on her lips, which took her breath away. Lucy rolled over so Natsu was spooning her. He wrapped his arm tight around her waist and pulled her close once again.
Whispering into her ear softly he states, "I wonder how many other colours our mark can change to."
Lucy just shrugged her shoulders and they both fell asleep, with no more interruptions from nightmares.
I'm sorry, I know this is an extremely short chapter, but I think it covered what it needed to. Until next time my lovelies...
