Chapter 8: Happy Birthday To You
Time skip, 3 days Normal POV
Natsu woke up peacefully to the delicious smell of fresh homemade pancakes in the morning. Grinning widely he rushed downstairs to shower his unsuspecting girlfriend in hugs and kisses. Lisanna yawned after she setting up the table for his birthday breakfast, it was eggs, pancakes with sweet maple syrup, sausage, and to top it off some fruits_ oh, and hot sauce, can she get a whoop whoop? She stretched after admiring her hard work "I guess I'll wake him up n_ AHHH!" Lisanna screamed as she felt herself being swept off her feet and being spun around.
Getting a satisfying reaction Natsu laughed and put Lisanna down. Lizzie frowned sleepily pointing an accusing finger at him "Natsu! Don't scare me like that, also happ_ STOP" Lisanna kicked and shouted when Natsu picked her up again and started spinning. After a couple seconds of laughing his butt off he put her down and examined her face.
He smiled poking her face "is it just me or do you seem tired?" Lizzie yawned again smiling sarcastically "oh really?"
Lucy heard yelling so her eye busted opened interrupting her scary dreams about a blue hair mermaid chasing her. She rushed out the door to the entrance "Cana?!" she stared into the eyes of her angered cousin and yesterday's trash "ugh! What is that smell?!" Lucy pinched her nose with a hand to avoid smelling that strong scent. She got no response from Cana but heard a muffled meow which made Lucy go into a state of panic "Cana, where's Happy?!" Cana shrugged picking up the garbage bag. There was another meow followed by hiss. Cana flinched muttering "that hurt you stupid thing…" Cana furrowed her brows "Cana drop the bag" Cana paid her no mind and handed to the door so Lucy tackle her to the ground ripping the bag open.
A very displeased dirty cat and a disgusting bunch of yesterday's half chewed leftovers rushed from the bag. Frowning at the mess she'd have to clean up later Lucy turned to her 'should be mature' older cousin "Cana… why did you do that to Happy?" Cana, who still lay on the floor rolled on the ground and propped her head with a hand and placed the other on her hip "the stupid thing somehow managed to get on the shelves on smashed 2 of my drinks to the ground" Lucy froze, unsure if she should laugh or get angry at her cousin.
Instead she twisted her hair and raised a brow at her cousin who seemed amused "what?" Lucy furrowed her brows as Cana tried to suppress her laughter "remember a few days ago you said you really wanted to wash your hair?" Lucy stopped playing with her hair "yeah, what about it?" "Well that day should probably be today"
Not getting her point she looked down at the hair she was twisted and gasped in repulse. Lucy groaned "now I have extra thing to do today…" she looked down at the reeking blue cat that cuddled into her legs 'I hope Happy isn't a cat that DESPIESES water…'
A few hours later
Lisanna looked at the clock that read 3:57 p.m. She smiled as she added the finishing touches to her make-up. She put a small bow in her short silver hair to complete the look. She was beaming at how well everything she wore complemented every other. She was going to brush her hair for the fourth time until there was a huge knock on the door. Natsu, who was on the other side leaned on the door in his black tux.
"Lizzieeeee… Are you done yet? You've been in that bathroom for like an hour" he whined. Patting her hair Lisanna pouted "don't be silly Natsu! It's only been about 40 minutes, not an hour" and there was that bang like knock again. Sighing Lisanna smiled softly as she dried her make-up brushes she carefully cleaned and shoved them in her small make-up bag exiting the bathroom.
Natsu clapped and whistled as his girlfriend came into view "you look stunning Lisanna!" he grinned. Lisanna blushed brushing a loose strand of hair behind her ear "thank you Natsu... let's go" Lisanna placed her wallet and make-up bag in her purse and checking its contents then took Natsu's arm.
After Lisanna locked the door and the two passed by Lucy's and Cana's temporary place they heard a bunch of hisses. Followed by the hisses there was a scream and a muffled "stupid thing!" Interest growing the couple stalked towards the partly opened window. Natsu gulped as something hit him '"Natsu why did you enter my house through the window?!" Lucy frowned at me loosening her grip on the wooden bat in her hand. "What? I can't visit my girlfriend's home from time to time?" I grinned at her. Her face turned a light shade of pink then turned away from me "yeah but…" I hugged her from behind garning a 'yelp' from my blonde weirdo "oh stop it" I couldn't see it but I knew she was rolling her eyes, and blushing "you should really keep your windows locked weirdo" I grinned. She gave me a look that showed she was trying desperately to not giggle "well! You! You_" "what is it Luce" I teased her and she pushed me a bit, her warm smile breaking out "you shouldn't be breaking into people's house through their windows idiot" she whispered to me softly "Natsu I lo_' "Cana! Don't hit him with the broom!" a same blonde yelled interrupting Natsu's thoughts.
Natsu and Lisanna slowly turned their heads to each other, not knowing what to make of this. Natsu took Lisanna hand shaking his head in disgrace "the dang blonde is probably in another relationship" Lisanna frowned at the window "we should get going now Natsu" Natsu nodded in agreement taking her hand and taking a quick glance at his ex-girlfriend's home.
4 hours later
Natsu and Lisanna just finished their time together before the cruise. First they explored the unvisited parts of town, entering stores, trying food, checking out a few video games and then they went to one of the world's scariest, evil, most HORRIFYING places you can ever imagine
… An amusement park_ did I mention this is only terrifying for Natsu because of his motion sickness? No?
Natsu swallowed his pride, he'd do it, just for Lizzie! He'd be strong, he struggled to keep his determine game face as they rid roller coasters, rides that turned upside down, and even rides that were attached to these thin wires Natsu couldn't trust, making him even more nervous and nauseous. After that Lisanna put the bow she removed earlier back in her hair and started combing it. Lisanna wrapped an arm around his shoulders to give him some support as they went into a store. Lizzie placed him on a chair and paid for motion sickness patch secretly.
She put both hands behind her back and smiled at Natsu "you know, I'm kinda surprised you wanted to do the cruise" Natsu tilted his head "why wouldn't I? It sounds like a lot of fun" Lisanna giggled confusing Natsu even more "what is it Lizzie?" Lisanna rolled her eyes "how do I put this? The cruise is a ship Natsu" his eyes widened "I want to go home" Lisanna laughed shaking his head. "Ta-da!" Lizzie revealed the patches from behind her. After reading the words on the box Natsu gleamed but then it faded "wait… why didn't we buy this before?" Lisanna fiddled with her fingers "well you see I_ oh whatever, I just wanted to comfort you" she smiled "why you little…" Natsu smiled as Lisanna giggled moving back, away from his grasp. Lisanna squealed playfully and ran out the door with the patches when Natsu got up and started to chase after her. The cashier raised a brow as they left "it won't last… somehow I know… but maybe I'm wrong…mmm… probably"
The couple walked to the dock where everyone was waiting. Grannie, noticing them waved her arm "Natsu! It's 8:13 p.m.! You were supposed to be here 13 minutes ago dimwit!" Natsu shrugged then smiled as he saw everyone that was invited was here (besides Cana) with no unwanted visitor.
Lisanna opened the box of motion sickness patches and carefully placed them on. When she was done Natsu signaled everyone on the boat. After everyone made sure they had everything the boat left the dock and went into sea.
"GRRRRAAAAAAYYYYYY-SAAAMMMAAA!~" an excited blue haired girl squealed and ran to her beloved. "What the?" Gray turned around and paled when he saw the blue haired women running up to him at full speed. "GRRRAAAYYYYY-SAAAMMAA!" she ran into him with open arms "no no NO!" Gray yelled as they were being knocked off the ship. "Gray-sama~" "SOMEONE HELP!" Gray sighed in relief when Erza grabbed the collar of Juvia's dress and pulled them to the center. Juvia, who still was holding on to Gray as if he was her lifeline glared at Erza "how dare you pull Gray-sama that way?! Erza Scarlet, from now on, YOU ARE MY LOVE RI_" "excuse you?" Erza glared back with quadruple the force "oh! Juvia forgot Erza is really scary and already has a beloved… Juvia is sorry!" Juvia bowed for forgiveness and Erza sighed smiling
Wendy picked up Carla and walked over to her mother who was inspecting the decorations. Giggling Wendy tilted her head "if everything to your liking?" Grannie groaned rubbing her head "I feel like I'm attending a 16 year old's party, not a 24 year old's…" Wendy bursted into laughter until Carla scratched her arm as if say 'Stop it right now child!'
After saving the 'couple' Erza went over to Jellal who was sitting peacefully on a chair reading a book. She stood in front of him smiling until he put the book down and smiled back. Erza sat on his lap and ran her fingers in his hair. Chuckling Jellal stared at Erza "the party just started, you can't be bored already," Erza pouted a bit "well, you've been going to work a lot recently so I don't get the see you in the evenings until the morning, and I'm usually not awake" He tilted a bit still smiling "yeah, I know and sorry, I'll make up to you somehow" Erza raised a brow knowing he was planning something for her "hey Jellal, how about we go play Mario Kart 8 with the others?"
He nodded handing the book to Erza then carrying her to a room where there was 2 TVs and Natsu, Lisanna, Gajeel, Wendy, and Grannie waiting to see if anyone else wanted to play. Levy sat in front of Gajeel but because of her height he could see all of the TV screen clearly. She angrily turned to Gajeel "you better win us gold prize" she said with her eyes full of fury and fire. Gajeel groaned, he knew if he didn't he wouldn't hear the end of it.
Mira and Elfman came in* and Lisanna ran to hug them "Mira-nee! Elf-ni "it's been a while Lizzie" Mira ruffled her younger sister's hair. Natsu turned around "Yo!" he flashed them a fanged grin "thanks for the cruise Mira!" Mira winked in response.
Lisanna turned back to her siblings "there's one more spot to play" she beamed "WAIT!" Natsu threw his hands in the air confusing everyone as everyone gathered in the room. Natsu sat up calming and trembled slightly "Elfman gets to play this race, Mira you have to wait until next round" "whatever for?" Mira smiled innocently. Lisanna shook her head quickly "everyone knows you're 'The Racing Demon' in racing games" Mira tilted her head "really?" Elfman stuck his palm out pointing a finger for every other thing she was 'a demon' at "'Cooking Demon' 'Destroying Demon' 'Butt into everyone else's love lives and call yourself the greatest match-maker of all time_ Demon'… also" "ok! Ok! I get it" Mirajane giggled "but next round I'm playing so everyone get ready!" everyone, even Erza shuddered a bit.
Lucy threw herself on her bed wondering how one cute little cat could cause so much pain to her poor hands. She flinched as she finished wrapping her hands in bandages. The blue that was dry, and luckily clean, meowed at her dumbfounded. Cana walked straight into Lucy's room earning a glare "I knew the thing would be trouble since this morning" she leaned on the doorframe Lucy frustratedly rolled her eyes. "All that wouldn't have happened if she hadn't thrown Happy in the tub of water!" she exclaimed angrily. Cana took a slip of her beer and placed a hand on her hip "what would you have done then?" "I would've slowly dripped Happy's feet into the water a couple of times then slowly put him in and pat him to try to calm him!" "Whatever," Cana shrugged then left
Lucy sighed and took a towel to rub Happy in to make sure he's dry_ and in an attempt to get some dye off "sorry Happy, it seems you'll be blue forever" Happy meowed softly as if not caring. Lucy smiled "you're right Happy, it's awesome looking to be honest," she blinked a couple times 'I have to give this cat to Natsu before I turn into a cat lady…'
Lucy put a long coat over her skirt and dress shirt and traveled to 'Kasai* Street' she knocked of couple of times with no success. She looked at her phone seeing it was 9:35 p.m. and assumed Natsu was out with Lisanna for his birthday
Lucy looked at Happy who unluckily for her seemed fully used to snuggling into her chest. She walked home quietly with Happy sleeping soundly. 'I hope Happy won't go ballistic when I give him to Natsu hopefully tomorrow' went Lucy was about to enter her and Cana's pent house by elevator something hit her 'that is… if Natsu can stand seeing me long enough for me to give him a birthday present'
And we're done here! I just wanted to say, when my friend and I read my fanfiction, I was kinda embarrassed at some of the mistakes so I'll fix them ASAP! *Sighs* I was having some laptop problems yesterday so I was a bit worried but everything's ok!
* #1= (Yeah, I know what you're thinking, they were on the ship the whole time -_-)
* #2= Kasai is the Japanese word for fire so I thought it would be nice,
Thanks for reading, Ciao!
