"Lucy?" Natsu tapped his wife's shoulder. She had laid her head on her desk for the past ten minutes and he had begun to feel a little guilty about the afternoon's events, even though it wasn't his fault.
Lucy made a muffled sound. She couldn't talk since her right cheek was flat on her desk, but she wasn't about to move. The afternoon's events had drained all of her energy and had ruined her good mood too.
Master had announced that he had received a letter that Fairy Tail was targeted by a dark guild. Of course, all the guild members should have had nothing to be afraid of, since they were very strong. But the dark guild that targeted them was the mysterious dark guild that had destroyed a few guilds in the past two years. The first one that was destroyed was stormed by guild members from the mysterious dark guild and it was gone within an hour. Many died, but when the dark guild members' bodies were searched, there was only one clue about their guild and that was a tattoo of a bear. The second guild that was destroyed was from Time Arc magic. The guild collapsed in minutes and took down more than half of the guild members. The most recent guild that was destroyed had tried to find the mysterious guild's base so that they could end their tyranny. It took them weeks of looking and researching but they had finally found the location. When the dark guild heard that their base had been discovered, they quickly eliminated the guild by blowing it up while blowing up the town it was in. But before they did, the guild managed to save the location of the dark guild by using Caster magic and storing it in the Archive.
Master ordered that everybody be ready to defend the guild at all times and to stay alert for any suspicious figures that happen to be around the guild. He also said that the strongest wizards of Fairy Tail can try to take down the dark guild by going to their base, but only if someone can find its location. The news had left everybody in Fairy Tail with a bad feeling in their gut and they all scrambled to train afterwards.
Though the news that Master had announced was pretty bad, Lucy wasn't very upset about that at all. Sure, she was worried and a little nervous about the dark guild, but she was surrounded by her nakama so that wasn't too bad. The thing that made her feel terrible was that she and Natsu wouldn't be able to go on their one year anniversary vacation. On top of that, she felt awfully selfish when she considered asking for Master for permission to leave to the beach anyways.
Natsu leaned in next to Lucy's head and tilted his head a little to face her face-to-face. Lucy looked at him, feeling sadder before closing her eyes, his innocent face engraved into her mind.
"C'mon Lucy," Natsu said softly. "Tell me what's wrong. I know you're sad." He continued to look at her while he lifted his arm and placed it around her, giving her a half hug. She sat up, startling Natsu.
She searched his face before lowering her eyes and looked away. "The vacation…" She whispered.
Natsu looked at her with a confused expression before giving her a wide smile. "Was that it?" Lucy looked back up at him, surprised by his reaction, and cocked her head to one side. "We can always just go on that vacation after this mess is cleaned up and that'll be soon, since all we have to do is find this dark guild and I'll give them a good whooping." He grinned.
Lucy gave him a small smile. He always looks so cute when he does that, she thought. It never gets old. "Okay then, Natsu," Lucy agreed. "It won't be as special as it would've been if we went there on the actual anniversary date, but I suppose it'll still be fun since we're going together."
"You suppose?" Natsu asked, giving her a playful look.
Lucy giggled, got up to bear hug her husband, and corrected herself, "I know."
Hope the readers are enjoying! :) Sorry it's taking so long to get more into the NaLu fluff, but I'm working on it and a lot of it will be coming soon! :D
