Yay! New chapter! Sorry for any grammar mishaps or spelling mistakes. I'm still just using my iPod to do this. Eventually I plan to edit and polish them all up.
To Where's the mayo: hehe I thought it was funny, glad you did too!
To Lunar Mistress: Yeah, Happy is pretty much my main source for comedy. And I was too, so I quickly typed this up after the last chapter!

Alrighty let's light this pop stand!
After what seemed like an hour-long game of I Spy (eye spy? I dunno), Happy's head was starting to ache from all his wrong answers. "It's a cloud, Happy! No matter how many times you say 'fish', it won't change the answer!" A loud grumbling noise was heard echoing off the tube and ocean. "Your stomachs really loud, Lucy." She hit his head again, "That's yours!" Lucy sighed and tossed her head back on the inner tube, closing her eyes. "How far do you think we've drifted?" Happy took a moment to think before responding. "You were pretty far out here to begin with.. Don't worry , though! Natsu will definitely find us!" Lucy looked up to see that Happy was serious this time. She closed her eyes again and let her head fall back down against the inner tube that was keeping them afloat. "Yeah... He will." She agreed softly. Right then, the faint sound of shouting and splashing could be heard from a distance. And it was getting close, fast. That's when they saw something with pink hair speeding through the water at an inhuman rate, pushing the waves behind him with the force of a small tsunami and shouting some incomprehensible nonsense. "HAPLEBLEEEYY! LUEWSSHLLEYY!" Happy and Lucy both looked at their oncoming hero with bright faces as they cheered in unison, "Natsu!" But he was moving far too fast and sped right past the two castaways, drenching and nearly capsizing his friends. Lucy's face contorted with anger as she nearly got out of the tube to beat him up. "HEY!" Natsu suddenly put on the breaks and rushed back after hearing the familiar shout. "Lucy! Happy! What were you guys doing having fun all the way out here and without me?!" He complained and whined to them both which got him a punch to his cranium.
"Who said we were having fun?!"
"We were playing I Spy! But Lucy kept on picking weird things."
"Aw, I wanna play!"
"You were the one being weird, Happy! And this isn't the time to for games! We got to start swimming back the way Natsu came, or we'll forget! We're lucky he swam fast enough for us to follow his trail!" "Hm? The beach isn't that way; I was swimming all over trying to find you guys." Natsu clung onto the inner tube for support and Lucy sat up on the inner tube, keeping balanced by pushing her feet down on the other side. "Well then, which way is it?" "You can't tell? It's where they're grilling fish from." "So that's why I could smell grilled fish! Lucy was getting hungry!" Lucy glared at Happy. "You were the one getting hungry! And if you could smell it, why didn't you mention it before?!" Not giving her any more time to be angry at happy, Natsu dived under the water, popping up in the inner tube, to which Lucy squeaked at, and grabed hold of the front, getting ready for take off. (In case your having trouble with the image, Lucy is sitting on the back end of the tube, her feet are on either side of Natsu who is in the middle of the tube and holding the front. Happy is in Lucy's lap.) Natsu took off without warning and Lucy screamed her head off as she clung onto the sides of the tube with a death grip. It's actually amazing it didn't pop with all the pressure put on it. He raced them all the way to the shore, and a bit beyond it, carried by the momentum. He dropped the spent inner tube along with his friends and turned around to give them a bright big smile. Lucy jumped up and smacked his arm for nearly giving her a heart attack. And Happy flew off to liberate some grilled fish. Just then, Natsu saw a lifeguard approach a group of teens and feared he would be recognized, so he scooped Lucy up and ran towards the 'secret' alcove (*Okay, I just have to tell you guys what happened as I typed 'secret'. My thumb accidentally tapped the 'x' instead of a 'c', so Natsu almost ended up running to the sex alcove! Hahaha! I'm sorry, continue*). "Hey, Natsu, what's wrong, what are you doing?!" She protested. "Shh! Just be quiet!" Natsu easily jumped the wall of rocks, making Lucy yelp a bit. "When do you plan on letting me go?" She said as she crossed her arms over her chest. He covered her mouth to silence the girl and looked around for a bit making sure no one saw them. Lucy held his arm, attempting to pull it away from her while she tryed wriggling out of his grasp, but with neither succeeding. Natsu eventually let her go after he had assured himself that they were safe. Lucy, now standing on her own feet, moved under her umbrella and plopped down; sitting with her legs hiked up against her chest and her arms wrapping around them. "What are you doing, Lucy? Lets go have some fun!" "I think I've had enough 'fun' for the day Natsu." Lucy said looking over at the now puppy-eyed dragon slayer. He didn't even have to say a word. "Fine! We'll play, but only for a little while!" She said trying to sound stern, but the pink blush on her cheeks gave her away. "Yay! Natsu ran and grabbed Lucy's hand, yanking her up and running with her into the ocean. Natsu kept hold of her as he ran deeper and deeper into the water with no sign of stopping. "Hey wait a minute!" She struggled to get out of his grasp when she was nearly chest-deep in the water, but Natsu's grip was firm. A splash of water from Lucy was all it took to get his attention back and he turned around to face the culprit, who gave him a coy smile in return. Natsu smiled widely at her as he splashed her back with twice the force she used. And the splash battle was on! Lucy was giggling and yelping every now and then and Natsu was making funny battle cries with each attack. Eventually the splash battle turned into a chase, when Lucy got some water in Natsu's eyes and started laughing and running back to shore. She almost made it too, the water reaching her calf, but Natsu easily caught up to her, catching her in a tight embrace. Lucy was squealing and wriggling to try to get out of his hold on her, but she was no match for his strength. Natsu turned her around to face him and was about to lift her up to throw her back in the waves, but unfortunately for Natsu, who had taken a step back to keep his balance, he stepped on a crab (That darn crab!). He lost his footing and fell forwards onto the shore with Lucy, slamming their heads against each other in the process, and blacking out.
It's a bit of an awkward end to a chapter, but I guess it adds suspense! Or something... Anywho, let me know what you thought! If you have a comment, compliment, or complaint please review! Let me get into your mind~
