Laxus POV

I woke up to find Lucy asleep in my arms. I kissed her cheek and rolled out of bed. I glanced at the clock when I entered the bathroom. 5 AM, huh? Mira would just be getting to the guild. I could go and take a job, but I think Lucy would be upset if I didn't tell her I was going. I decided to make us breakfast and decided that afterwards I would wake her up.

Of course my breakfasts usually consisted of scrambled eggs and toast with orange juice. Lucy usually makes the best sunny-side up eggs, crisp but soft bacon, French toast, and a chocolate protein shake. She knew how to cook for a man, it surprised me when I found out that I was her first boyfriend.

I made two plates of my breakfast and walked over to Lucy's still sleeping figure on my bed. That's a sight I'll never get sick of seeing. She had a rosy tint on her cheeks her eye lashes laying on her cheeks. I knelt on the ground in front of her. I took her hand in mine and squeezed it. "Lucy, wake up. Breakfast is ready and I need to go take a job."

Her brown eyes fluttered open and they looked into my orange ones. I smiled at her. "Morning, Laxus. Did you make breakfast?"

"Yep. Already on the table. Hurry and get ready I want to drop you off at the guild and I'll go take a job." I rested my other hand on her stomach. "For this little one."

"It's going to be a strong one. Since it's father is such a strong mage. I wonder what magic it'll have though. If it has mine, I'll have to let them know that I am going to give it my keys when it gets older."

"Both of its parents are strong mages, Luce. You know this. You've beaten me countless times." I helped her sit up and she pecked my on the lips and headed to the bathroom. I sat down at the table and waited for her to join me. She walked into the room, dressed in a black t-shirt with a lightning bolt on it and a black skirt with yellow o the hem. She had black knee-length boots on. She was holding my fur coat in her arms.

"Don't forget this, okay? It's special." She smiled and handed it to me. She sat across from me and dug into the food before her, not really chewing it.

"Hungry, eh?" I chuckled a little. "Come on. Let's go to the guild."

She dumped the dishes in the sink and claimed she's wash them later and followed me out the door. I locked it and started to walk towards the guild. I caught up with her quickly and took her hand in mine.

"Laxus?"

"Yeah?"

"What about names? I really like Laci if it's a girl." She smiled a beautiful smile. One that made the world around you seem to glow with happiness and joy. "What do you think?"

"Laxus II if it's a boy." I stated.

"No! That's so dorky and unoriginal!" She squealed at me, puffing out her cheeks.

"I think it's very original, Lucy." I said matter of factly.

"Be serious! Laxus, come on!" She looked me in the eyes.

"Fine how about…" I paused. "Lucas Dreyar."

"I like that very much, Laxus." She purred my name, sending tingles down my spine. I snapped my head in her direction.

"What?"

"I like Lucas. It's a fine name, it's close to your name, though." She smiled.

I laughed. "Oh and Laci isn't close to yours?" I retorted with a smirk plastered on my lips.

"Oh whatever. Laci if it's a girl, Lucas if it's a boy. Deal?" She held her hand out to me.

"Deal! But don't act like this is business, this is our family we're talking about, Lucy. Give me a hug." I pulled her hand so she was in my arms. "It's just not right." I held her tight and smiled into her hair.

"Laxus," She asked "Are you scared to be a parent?" She asked holding me just as tightly.

"Of course, but you have to remember that we aren't alone."

"Laxus," She said again. "I want to become an S-Class Wizard. It'll help support our family."

TeeHee. I hope you like it! -SFL
