"I promise in everything I am I will never try to leave again" Natsu said simply and with that he pulled her in for a hug which she was to happy to return. " Thank you"
"What for?" Mira asked.
"For getting the other to talk some sense into me" he said smiling.
"I had a feeling you would pull something like this so I just had to mention it to the rest of your team and they where eager to come and talk some sense into you" Mira explained.
"Still thanks" he said after a few more seconds they pulled back from the hug " We should probably head back to the guild there going to be wondering where we are" he laughed and with that they headed back to the guild. As they started walking Natsu felt a short stab of pain run through his head followed by a little bit of nausea but as quick as it came on it was gone so he just shrugged it off taking Mira's hand.
The two were wondering down the street heading back towards the guild hand in hand, a though popped back into Mira's head 'what are we boyfriend and girlfriend I should probably just ask it's Natsu after all, but what if he says no' she slapped herself mentality as she got the courage to ask Natsu.
"So umm Natsu I was thinking what are we? To each other in mean" she asked nervous of his response.
"Well I'd like to think we're dating but I guess we haven't really talked about it" he said scratching his cheek awkwardly with his free hand.
"Well that's a relief I want us to be dating too, but there's the small problem of the guild" she said glad that he at least felt the same way towards her.
"What's the problem as I see it they should be happy for us right?" he said obliviously, Mira sighed he was obviously clueless to the advances from two of the girls from the guild 'Lucy and Lisanna' Mirajane thought to her self, Natsu saw the worry on her face "Hey there's nothing to worry about however the guild reacts I'm sure everything will be ok" he said as gave her his toothy grin, she quickly felt most of worries leave her.
"So we're going to tell them right?" she said to make sure.
"Yea I don't see why not" he replied as they turned round the next corner and found themselves a few steps from the guild, Natsu took a deep breath before kicking the doors open "We're back" as he did he had a look around very few people were left in the guild only the rest of team Natsu, both Masters and a few random guild members the room was silent as they all turned their attention to the new arrivals.
"Natsu my boy I see you decided not to leave after all" Master Makarov said with a small smirk.
"Nah I had Mira and the team to thank for talking me out of my stupid decision" he said as the two walk into the guild still hand in hand though no one seemed to notice, they reached the bar where the team and the Masters were sitting there was silence for a few seconds before Master Makarov spoke up.
"So how are you two?" asked as he raised his eyebrow as he seemed to be hinting at something.
"We're fine" Natsu replied confused as the two sat down on a free pair of stools, Mira just sighed.
"I think he's worked it out Natsu" Mira spoke.
"Worked what out?" Lucy asked.
"Well me and Mira have started dating" Natzu spoke plainly.
"WHAT" sounded from Erza and Gray but quickly recovered as smiles replaced there shocked faces, Meanwhile the two Masters where chuckling to themselves while Wendy just smiled up at the pair the only person who wasn't smiling was Lucy who was sitting at the end of the group furthest from the new couple she wanted to be happy for her friends but she was sad that the man she had a crush on since before the seven year time gap was no longer on the table she sighed quietly to herself before forcing a smile on her face and stood up and walked towards them to join in the celebration.
"So are you going to tell the rest of the guild?" Lucy asked with forced enthusiasm.
"Yea we planned to announce it tonight to everyone but there was only you guys left here so we'll tell everyone tommorow" he replied giving Lucy a kind smile, Lucy's smile wavered for a second but she quickly recovered
"Are you ok Lucy?" Mira asked noticing the blondes reaction.
"Yea I'm fine just tired" Lucy replied.
"It is getting late I think It's time we all headed home" Master Makarov said quickly and with that most people started heading home leaving just Mira and Natsu left inside Master had asked Mira to lock up as she usually does while Natsu sat waiting.
"Come on Natsu it's time we left too" Mira called as she stepped out from the kitchen and locked the doors, Natsu nodded as he stood up and walked with her to the doors they left with Mira doing a final check around and magically locking the guild doors.
"Is it alright if I walk you home?" Natsu asked shyly.
"Of course it is silly" Mira responded as she wrapped her arm around his as they be gained to walk towards the Strauss residents.
"Well everyone there seemed to react well" Natsu said cheerfully.
"Well almost everyone" Mira corrected, Natsu just looked at her confused.
"What didn't you notice how Lucy was acting?" Mira asked.
"She seemed alright, she was smiling" Natsu replied trying to think of he had seen Lucy act weird.
"She tried to hide it but I saw her smile wavering" Mira stated. "I think she has feelings for you" she finished, Natsu just sighed.
"I'll talk to her tommorow we're still friends after all I'm sure she'll understand" Natsu said turning he head towards Mira flashing her a quick smile. It wasn't long after that they arrived at Mira's house as he turned to face the takeover mage he noticed how the moon shone down on her giving her an angelic radiance he just stared at her for a few seconds before she noticed and looked at him.
"What's wrong?" she asked as she noticed he seemed to be in a trance of some sort
"Nothing I'm just glad we finally got together" he said as he tilted his head slightly and she raised hers as their lips meet for a short passionate kiss. "You know after we stop by and tell the guild tommorow we should go on a date, you know of you want to" he spoke quickly he was blushing madly, Mira giggled and the dragons slayer.
"That sounds like fun" Mira said as she got her giggles under control. "So I guess I'll see you at the guild tommorow" Mira said.
"You bet I'll be there bright and early" he said giving her his toothy grin.
Well good night" she said hugging him tight.
"Good night" he said returning the hug as he rested his head on top of her silver hair, after a few minutes of them hugging they eventually pulled away and Mira reluctantly headed towards her house as she reached the door she turned to see Natsu slowly walking away.
"Natsu" she called after him he simply stopped and turned his head towards her to see her running down to meet him, as she reached him Mira wrapped her arms around Natsu's neck and pulled him down to a kiss which he happily returned after they had ran out of breath they separated.
"I love you" Natsu said staring into her deep blue eyes.
"I love you too" Mira said staring back at his brown eyes, and with that they parted ways to head to their separate houses looking forward to the events of tommorow.
The next morning came quickly with Natsu trying to adjust his routine now that Happy wasn't there it was difficult as he went through all the memory's, hatching his egg with Lisanna, the s class trails, all the times he has helped the dragon slayer with his training always motivating him to get stronger, soon he was dressed and ready for the day he had decided to get to the guild as early as possible to sort out the supposed problem with Lucy and because he knew Jose was being moved from the guild jail back to magic council prison. As he approached the guild the doors were open so he headed inside the guild was almost empty apart from Master replied Makarov, Mira because she normally unlocked the guild anyway and a squad of anti mage solders.
"Your here early" the master said noticing Natsu standing just inside the guild doors.
"I want to talk to him" Natsu responded with a forced calmness.
"I thought you might" Makarov said nodding. "Let me just ok it with the squad commander" he finished jumping off his usual placing on the bar, while the master disappeared downstairs Natsu approached the bar where Mira was setting up.
"Good Morning" he greeted the white haired beauty with a bright smile.
"Morning Natsu how are you" she replied with herring own warming smile.
"Yea I'm not bad I'll be better once I get this out the way" he said taking a seat by where she was working. " How are you"
"Yea I'm fine thanks, but are you sure this is a good idea" Mira's face became serious.
"I have to do this else I'll never be able to fully move on" he gave her a weak smile.
"Well what ever happens I'll be right behind you" Mira said smiling.
"Thanks Mira" he lent over the bar and pecked her on the lips, as he pulled away the Master came back upstairs followed by Jose and a white cloaked man who Natsu assumed was the squad captain.
"He has agreed to give you five Minutes with him' Master spoke plainly as the captain guided Jose to a nearby table, to which Natsu sat down opposite with Mirajane and Master Makarov taking up position behind Jose by the bar.
