Yo minna! I apologize for the late update! I was having a school trip and well.. thats why. Plus busy with school! Oh, that reminds me.. HAPPY NEW YEAR! [ Even if its a little late! XD ]

Yosh! Lets keep the story rolling!

"Wind… Why do I feel a cool breeze on my face..?" muttered the sleeping princess. A cool summer breeze breached upon her face sweeping a few strands of hair gently.

"I must be dreaming.. But.. I can see the sun.. It doesn't feel like a dream" slowly adjusting her mind from dream zone back to reality.

"Lucy.." whispered someone. "Who's that? Is someone there..?"

"Lucy.." whispered again. "That voice.. there it is again. It seems familiar.." trying to find the source of the voice.

Meanwhile, back in reality, at Magnolia Park. Under a shady oak tree on top of the highest hill, two wizards are seen about.

"Man.. how long dies she intend to sleep? I'm starving here!" rambled by our fire wizard. Waiting for his beloved nakama to wake up.

Though he keeps complaining when oh when will he'll able to eat, deep.. and I mean DEEP inside he's actually quite fond of the moment they have together right now. Proof? He still waits for her instead of salvaging himself in the foods, and.. he has been staring at her sleeping face which he was so kindly putted her head on his lap for half an hour already.

Staring and staring. That's all he could do at the moment. Other than playing with her golden locks and whispering her name over and over into her ear. The longer he stared at her, the feeling of wanting her increases.

"Lucy.. wake up damn it! I can't stand seeing your face like this anymore.." hoping that somehow she was able to read his mind in her sleep.

"N.. Natsu.." mumbled her savior's name. "Natsu.."

"Hmm? Is she dreaming about me?" asked the curious teenage boy. As curious as he gets, more and more because he wasn't quite certain that she really said his name or not. He leaned closer to her lips to confirmed his guess.

"Natsu..."

"Aha.. I was right!" said with a sly grin upon his face. "She is dreaming about me.. Like I've always had of her every night.."

"Um.. Natsu..? You okay..?" asked a certain person who is so not asleep anymore. He still was deep in thoughts to realize that his friend was clearly already awake.

"Hey Natsu! Just what do you think your doing?" panicked the female wizard since his face was so near to hers.

Realized that his princess was no longer asleep, he quickly jumped high up in the tree due to his agility and quick reflex. Good thing he got away too, he's face was as red as a tomato!

"Oh god.. She's awake? How long! Did she.. I mean.. I'm so screwed now.." trying to figure out just what situation he's in now.

"Y-Yo Luce.." waving his hand waving nervously at her. "Your finally awake! Took ya long enough! I'm starving here!" making a crying face followed by a few whines.

"S-Sorry.. I didn't realize I was asleep for that long. Guess I'm a lot more tired than I thought I was." sitting up properly from her former position.

"You fell asleep while I was carrying you here! There I was giving a speech.. A SPEECH! Do you know how rare that is for anyone to hear a speech from the great Dragneel! Nyahaha!" laughing maniacally up in the tree not noticing that Lucy has already put an annoying face.

"And then oh great Dragneel?" crossing her arms waiting for the boy to stop being insane and continue with his recap on how she fell asleep.

Jumping down in front of her with a toothy grin, he continued on what happened. "Very well, since you have acknowledge that I am the GREAT DRAGNEEL, I shall continue on with my story. As I was saying.." continued the oh mighty Dragneel.

"No wonder Gray always fight with him.." sighed the celestial mage. "Fight?" thinking back to her original plan. The very reason why their here. "OH SHOOT! I TOTALLY FORGOTTEN EVERYTHING!"

"The plan.. wait.." searching in and out of her pockets also her whole body. "Where did I put the plan!" searching also in the picnic basket and under the blanket. Basically everywhere around her.

"I know I put it in here.. But.. where.. where the heck is it!" panicking around while Natsu keeps on rambling on about his story. Not even realizing she had stopped caring centuries ago.

"Um.. Natsu.." calling his name slowly.

"And then a huge boulder came crashing by! But no boulder is match for my brute strength.. Bla blaa blaa.." continued Natsu.

"Excuse me, Natsu?" calling his name again.

"Then out of nowhere a big T-Rex appeared out of nowhere ready to eat everyth...-"

"NATSU! STOP RAMBLING NONSENSE AND LISTEN TO ME FOR A SECOND BAKA!" snapped Lucy. "Seriously.. how do you expect me to stay calm when he's making up stories while I'm panicking! SERIOUSLY? T-Rex.. Really Natsu.." sighed in disappointment towards her friend.

"You better have a darn good reason for interrupting my story.." crossing his arms.

"Um.. well.. I think.. I lost a very special or rather important thing on my way here! I think I dropped it somewhere!" trying to hide the fact she actually lost her precious well thought plan.

"Oh? And what is that so called special or rather important thing?" smirking at her not knowing that he knew what she was frantically searching for. No matter how hard she retrace her step, its no use! She'll never find her plan. That's because, the plan is already safe and sound and tightly locked in his pocket.

"Sorry Luce.. you wont fool me again." wondering if his plan in his head.

"Um.. ettou.. I lost.." trying to think of something. "M-My keys! Yeah, that's it!"

"Oh.. keys eh?" getting closer to her.

"Y-Yeah.. I sure don't want Aquarius to whip my butt again like last time!" laughing nervously.

Ripping the main key ring that holds all her key from her belt including the small bag with Fairy Tail mark on it.

"Lets see.." Flipping through each one of her keys. "Plue, Aries, Cancer, Sagittarius, Lyra, Capricorn, Leo, Crux, Horologium, Scorpio, Taurus, Gemini, Virgo.. and looky here..." showing her the last key of her collection. "Aquarius.. I dont think she'll whip your but now Luce.."

Stepping back in fear now that her lie has been found out, a scared face was shown by her because of Natsu's eyes. Mad and angry.. Rage? In fact, she's scared that he would pound suddenly on her ripping her body to pieces. He looked like a real monster every time he shows that expression to his enemies.

"What else do you want to lie about Luce.." staring straight into her deep brown eyes.

Now Lucy didn't see rage nor anger anymore. By the sound of his voice and looking back in his eyes, she noticed that he was sad.. and hurt. Hurt of being lied to? Or maybe something else.

"I hate being lied to Lucy! I maybe dense but that doesn't mean you can make a fool out of me! Especially by you damn it! The girl that I lo..-" stopping his words before he proceed any further.

"T-The girl that.. that's my teammate.. my best friend.." covering his feelings up. "Seriously, don't you think how I feel when you lied to me?" punching with conflicting emotions to the tree making the whole trunk to the branches shake.

Holding her right arm, she finally realized how hurt she made him felt.

"I'm sorry Natsu.. I didn't mean to lie.. I was actually finding for...-"

"This?" pulling out a piece of paper from his pocket. Smirking devilishly at her cornering her to the tree making sure his hand are beside her making it impossible for her to escape. "Anything else to say.. or should I say, lie about before your punishment Miss Lucky Heartfilia?"

Blinking a few times at him gulping at her current situation. "Eh..?" trying to keep her heartbeat from beating any faster. "EHHHHH?"

Cliffhanger again! XD Sorry again for the delay! Hope you guys like it even if its a bit cliche and crappy since I wrote in a haste. Please review and stay alert for the last chapter.. SOON!
