"Let's Party!" Master shouted.
Cana managed to get everyone to at least have one drink that night. Laxus had six and I had just about one, since Laxus finished mine for me. He had a high tolerance to the strongest stuff, it made me wonder why, but I knew better than to ask him directly. They partied until the unholy hours of the morning, where Laxus fell asleep in my lap, while I fondly played with his spiky hair.
Lisanna sat down next to me at the table. "It's so nice to see you home, Lucy, we've all missed you so much, even the bonehead over there." She gestured to Natsu. "He's just too stupid to admit it."
"I know, I wonder what made him kick me off the team in the first place, you know. If I did something wrong, I'd like to know what so I could at least apologize properly."
"Don't cry, Lucy," Lisanna put her hand on my shoulder.
Laxus stirred and opened his eyes, which caused me to look down at my husband.
"Why're you crying, Luce? Did the flame idiot say something to you?" Laxus questioned.
"No, no. Nothing like that. Just wondering why on some things, that's all. Nothing to worry about, Laxus." I replied.
"Saying that makes me worry, now spill it." He groaned as he sat up.
"She wants to know why I kicked her off the Team."
The pink-haired Fire Dragon Slayer sat in front of me, looking directly into my eyes.
"Leave me alone, Natsu." I managed to say without yelling.
"You want to know or not?" He said loudly. When I nodded, he continued. "I wanted to see if you'd stay for the guild. If you were only here for me, then why even be here. When I saw you come back to the guild to say proper good-byes, I felt some hope that you really do care for all of Fairy Tail. I saw the way you dressed up for me when I needed Virgo to dig a hole for me. I noticed how you try to keep me and the Ice Princess from fighting. I purposely snuck into your apartment at night, knowing you'd just move over and go back to sleep. I fell head over heels for you. I wanted to know if you loved me too." His pink hair covered his eyes. He was trying not to cry.
"Natsu, you'll find a person you love a lot more than Luce." Laxus ruffled his hair affectionately. "Let's go find her." Laxus stood up, dragging Natsu with him over to a girl with long brown hair, Millianna, I recognized her from the Tower of Heaven. So they finally joined. I glanced around the hall and saw Sho and Wally talking up Laki. Jellal was on the second floor with Erza. I guess he got out of jail, too, huh?
"Laxus, sure has sweetened up, huh?" Lisanna giggled.
I laughed. "You think so? I don't he was always this sweet he was just saving it for the people he loves."
She giggled again. "Call me a jinx but I really want me and Gray to be just as happy as you two."
"We aren't always happy with each other, but Lisanna, it's important you talk it out and listen to each other's thoughts and feelings." I stressed.
Gray walked up to us and clapped a hand on me and Lisanna's shoulders. "How are my most important ladies doing?"
"Great, Brother." I smiled.
"Wonderful, Gray." Lisanna blushed.
"I don't say this enough, but I'm so glad you two are part of Fairy Tail. It's just not the same without you." He brought us into a hug.
"Eh, Gray! Why you hugging my woman?" Laxus slurred, obviously drunk now.
"I'm going to go take him home. See you later." I smiled hugging Lisanna and Gray individually and waved. "Laxus, get your sparky ass over here!" I shouted in a tone that made Erza cower.
Obviously not intimidated, he ignored me. I stormed over there and summoned Loke. "Loke," I said while batting my eyes, "will you take me home please?"
"Yes, my princess." He kissed my hand.
Laxus now perked up at my sweet voice and stormed over to us. "What the hell do you think you're doing?!"
"Well, I want to go home, and a pretty girl like me shouldn't be out after dark unescorted." I pouted. "So I summoned Loke to take me home." I knew this would piss off Laxus and in turn getting him home.
He took the key from my hand. "Force Closure." He stated.
"Since when can you use Lucy's Magic?" Erza asked from the second floor. "Let alone her spirits?"
He scratched the back of his neck. "Well when I marked her, we transferred some of our magic between each other. I got to use her spirits and her magic limit increased." He laughed nervously.
"You sure do sober up quick." I mumbled. "Idiot."
"What was that, Blondie?" Laxus smirked at me. "Did you dare insult me?"
I shook my head.
"Well if I recall you called my ass sparky, you'll have to pay for that now, don't you?" His smirk grew at his words. I knew I was blushing and he intended to make it so much worse. He handed me the key.
"You recall wrong, Sparky." I sneered.
"Do I? Well, let's go home and find out." He matched my sneer.
"Let's." I laughed.
The guild had fallen silent, either they had finally passed out or they were fully aware of the loud conversation taking place.
"Master, shouldn't we stop them?" Mira asked.
"They'll be fine." He answered.
We stepped outside, we gave us enough room for a fight. The guild quickly rushed out after us.
I cracked my knuckles while Laxus cracked his neck.
"I'd hate to mess up that pretty face of yours, Laxus." I smirked.
"You won't be able to hit me." He laughed. He transformed into lightning, zipping around in the air.
"I braced myself and closed my eyes. I felt the electricity flow through my veins. I heard a crackle next to me and I swung, I hit Laxus in the stomach, he flew a good ten meters before skidding to a stop. I laughed. "You said something about me not being able to hit you?"
"Lucky shot, Lucy. I'd really rather not hit my wife, so you win." He smiled at me after getting up and walking over to me. He pulled me into a tight hug. "I love you, Luce." He whispered.
"I love you, too, Laxus."
He picked me up. "Anyone who dares to come close to her, will answer to me." He said towards all the guys in the area. "She's mine." He said this more quietly.
I snuggled into his chest. "I keep falling in love, Mr. Dreyar." I teased.
"Just don't forget, you're Mrs. Dreyar." He winked at me.
Hope you enjoyed! -SFL
