Lucy and Natsu are hanging a lot lately. They became great friends in the past two months. They see each other every day at college and Natsu makes her skip a few classes to go out with him.

"You know I can't skip classes again today." She liked the way he always appeared on her locker just to ask her out.

"Why not? I do it all the time!" Natsu tried to convince Lucy but didn't work. "Yeah but you shouldn't! You gotta study Natsu, we both have."

"I know, I know, I will but only if you come with me."

"I can't Natsu, I have a test now." he did a grumpy face and she laughed. "Look, let me do the test and I'll help you study this afternoon. Can you come home?" "Ok." he left and she entered class. Lucy liked spending time with Natsu, he wasn't a total jerk like he showed to other people, not with her. With Lucy he was funny and gentle, he wasn't even trying to force something anymore. She told Levy about him and she asked if he was still really interested on her and Lucy started to consider that maybe she was friendzoned by him. She didn't like that, she wanted Natsu. Even though she was too proud to admit it, she liked him more than she should.

After the test she went home, ate and laid on her bed to rest a little. She woke up with someone knocking on the door and got up to answer. It was Natsu.

"Fuck, I forgot you would come." Natsu laughed at her messy hair. "I can see that, sleepy princess." he entered the dorm and sat at the couch. "I'll be back in a minute."

She appeared at the living room again with a shirt that almost covered all the shorts and Natsu had to breath heavy to control himself. "I was thinking how I'm gonna help you study if I don't even know the grade." Lucy said to the pink-haired boy.

"That's ok, we can help each other on things we know". They sat on the ground next to the center table and started to read the books. Natsu was trying hard not to look at Lucy's legs, only with the shirt covering but she was doing her best to provoke.

"I'm tired of reading, I'm gonna get something to eat." she got up and went to the kitchen and Natsu followed her with eyes. How dare her wear that shorts with that ass? I guess she forgets that I'm a boy sometimes. Natsu looked away when Lucy came back to hide his blushed cheeks.

Since he met Lucy he didn't kissed or had sex with anyone so he was really needy. "Where's Levy?" he tried to distract his mind.

"She's at Gajeel's house." Lucy answered. "Right, I always forget that she dates that asshole." "And I always forget that you're friend of him." She said and gave him a cookie. "So you practically live alone, you always say she's not here."

"Yep, she comes to sleep and stays on some evenings but now she's passing a lot of her time with him."

"That's cool, Gray is always home."

"I kinda like, the silence and all." he looked surprised when a dog came to his lap to play with him. "I didn't know that you have a dog"

"It's Plue. I found him at the door one day and Levy liked the idea so we adopted him."

"Hey boy, you wanna play?" he started to play with Plue and Lucy smiled with the scene. These days together made her like so much of his smile. She gave a good look on his arms, he had a beautiful body. "Why are you staring at me?" Lucy's thoughts were interrupted by Natsu. Lucy blushed and started to shake her head.

"It was nothing, I was just looking at you playing with Plue."

"You blushed just because of that? How cute."

"Not funny Natsu." He laughed at her blush again. "I think it is."

"Really?" she leaned against him, hands placed beside his waist. "Do you think this is funny too?" her husky voice made him blush and arche his torso backwards to create distance. "I think it's funny." she said aproaching again making his cheeks almost burn. His eyes ran from her breasts to her mouth and his heart accelerated. Her provokes were working, it was driving him crazy. They heard the door opening and Lucy sat at her place and Natsu was able to breath again. Fuck, that girl is going to kill me, he thought.

"Uhh I interrupted something?" Levy said laughing to Lucy.

"Not at all. Actually I think I'm going" Natsu got his backpack and said goodbye to them and went home.

Natsu thought of Lucy during his bath, on how he was getting used to her these last months. She was important enough to make him not stay with anyone, he started to consider that maybe he liked her more than as a friend. For the first time he was afraid of hurting a girl, he wanted to show Lucy that she won't be like the others. But he wouldn't admit that, not so soon.

Now that they were friends, the group was together again. Natsu and Gray were going out every weekend with the girls. Even Gajeel would come with them sometimes.

"Hey, do you have some time to coffee?" Natsu asked her. "I don't but when that stopped you?" He smiled to Lucy and they went to get a coffee.

"You're coming tonight right?" He wanted her to go on a party with them.

"I'm not in the mood but I'll think about it."

"Come on, you gotta go" he held her hand to convince the blondie and she smiled.

"I'll think later, now I have to go to class, ok?" Natsu watched her go away.

When Lucy arrived home later that day, Levy was at her room. She was a little confuse about Natsu and decided to talk with the blue-haired girl. "Lu-chan, what's wrong?"

"I don't know.. Natsu and I became friends but since you said that he may not be interested anymore I can't stop thinking about him.."

"Are you in love with him?"

"No. I mean, not yet. But I like him and I want that he wants me back."

"Then kiss him. Why not, huh?"

"Because I want him to kiss me first."

"Then provoke him till he can't resist. Maybe he thinks that you're not interested on him."

"Do you think I should show interest?"

"Sure, that way you can get what you want."

When it was dark the girls came and asked Lucy to go with them to the party but she didn't want to. They said that if she changed her mind they would be waiting for her and went to the party. After thinking a lot she decided to go and talk with Natsu. She dressed herself and went to Elfman's house.

A/N: Guys I made this chapter in a new format to test, some of you were having trouble in understand who was talking so I tried this way. Personally, I don't like that type, I think that kinda makes more confusing but if you like, let me know :) and if you want me to keep writing the same way as before let me know too!
