When Lucy finally dragged herself off the couch in the morning, it was late. Slowly, she stretched and yawned, her blond hair tangled on top of her head. She stumbled around in a sleepy daze, looking for something to tell her what time it was. But, when she eventually made her way into the kitchen to look at the microwave, all she could do was stare at it in disbelief. 9:30, she thought. For once I get to sleep... Why hasn't someone come and woken me up? It wasn't like Lucy minded she had been aloud to sleep in, she was just thoroughly confused.

I can't believe Erza let me sleep in, she said she had something important to talk to me about, maybe the boys were fighting... No, still she would have beaten them up by now. Last night she was practically jumping out of her armor trying to tell me- Last night... Lucy's thoughts trailed off as she remembered last night's dream. In the morning light streaming into her apartment it all seamed stupid. She had a weird dream, then because of it was mean to her friend, and had been being mean to him for almost a month now. What did he give her in return? Letting her sleep.

Lucy raced out of the kitchen, maybe she hurried her friends would still be at the guild hall.

Guild Hall

Lucy burst though the door into chaos. Fists, feet, people, and random pieces of furniture and silverware flew around looking for unsuspecting victims. Careful, Lucy make her way over to an unoccupied seat well out of the chaos. Still well aware of the fight around her, she settled in to wait, strangely relaxed for someone occasional dodging forks.

After about three minutes, the building finally stopped shaking and people lost interest in fighting. Lucy watched as conversations started up as if nothing had happened, she smiled. No other guild could compare to us, she thought, fighting one minute and talking the next...

"Hey, Lucy!" Natsu said sitting down next to her. "I found the perfect job!"

"What is it?" She replied.

Happy flew up beside Natsu as he was talking, interjecting an 'eye sir' at the end of his explanation, "All we have to do is deliver a package!"

Lucy looked at him confused, "doesn't that mean taking a form of transport?"

Natsu grinned, "Nope!" He said, "That's why it's perfect, this job specifically requires us to walk!"

"Look Nastu," Lucy says, "Just because Gray said take a hike doesn't mean you should actually do it!"

She sees shadow flit Natsu's face, thinking her tone of voice hurt him for a second, but it's gone quickly, and he says, "Ya, ha ha Luce, but seriously are you coming, if you don't I'll be stuck delivering this thing on my own!"

She gives quizzical look, "What about Happy?" She asks.

Quickly, the blue cat interjected, "It says walk, you really think I'm going to do it?" He flapped his mightily, causing a slight breeze, before continuing, "I fly!"

"Happy is coming," Natsu says, "But since this job is walking only, he has to stay far enough so it's not like he is on the mission." He smiled at his devious plan, the asked, "So Luce... You coming?"

Lucy sat, indecision holding her like a vice, she wanted to be alone to think over her new dream, but also she owed it to Natsu to go. Finally, Natsu won out because surly she could still think, it's not like he could talk forever. Or so she hoped.

"I'll come" she said.

"Great!" Natsu practically yelled, "Come on!" So saying, he grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the guild, completely ignoring the whistle they received while departing.

Hope you liked chapters one and two! I will try and update soon but no promises...
