Chapter 3: A Happy Dinner at Natsu's

(P.O.V Natsu)

After all of us walked Lucy back to her apartment I head home too, tired from the days experience ready to get home and go to sleep. I sighed as I looked at the apartment knowing I was so close to just laying down but my feet refusing to keep walking. Somehow I made it inside. "Welcome home!" I heard a small voice call.

"I'm back Happy" I smiled at my little brother as he greeted me at the door holding onto our blue cat named Aio.

"Natsu I'm hungry!" Happy Peered up at me with his crystal blue eyes, as he held Aio closer to himself.

"I told you, you didn't have to wait for me" I laughed and ruffled Happy's light blue hair and walked over to the kitchen, "You want fish for dinner?" I asked as I heard his footsteps fallow me.

"Aye!" he placed Aio down and climbed up on the chair to sit at the table. "Natsu you look happy" I heard him say as I started to prepare dinner.

"Yeah? I feel more tired than anything" I chuckled slightly.

"Did something good happen today at school?" he asked and I could hear the curiosity in his voice.

I pause for a moment and I could feel a smile forming over my features, 'something good huh?' I thought as I continued cooking. "You could say that" I laughed slightly and turned to the 6 year old at the table who looked confused but smiled back at me.

"Aye!" he chimed.

(P.O.V Lucy)

It was finally morning but my body was still sore and stiff from yesterday's adventure, "I hope school isn't crazy today…" I sighed knowing that it was going to be but a since of happiness came over me. I looked at the cut on my cheek; 'If it wasn't for Natsu and everyone, I'm pretty sure this would be a lot worse' I smiled once more remembering everyone being there for me. 'I need to thank everyone properly today' I thought as I grabbed my bag and keys and headed out the door. I was coming up on the corner where I met Natsu when I saw the pink hair, and white scarf.

"Ah, Lucy!" he turned around a smile on his face, I was shocked.

'How did he know it was me?' I thought as I stood there stunned for a minute. I then ran up next to him since he stopped to wait for me, "How did you know I was there?" I asked as we started to head to school.

"You have distinctive footsteps and smell" he smiled like it was no big deal.

"Um… I'm not sure how to take that…" I said with a sigh as I glanced up at Natsu. 'He has a nice face…' I thought looking at his profile, he then glanced over a questionable look on his face causing me to blush slightly, "No-nothing, oh yeah I just remembered" we both stopped and I pulled out a wrapped bento out of my bag and handed it to Natsu. "Here so you don't eat all of my food" I laughed jokingly as I handed him the box.

He grinned and took it happily, "Thanks Lucy"

I shook my head no and smiled "No thank you for saving me, I don't know what would have happened if you didn't come when you did"

His smile got softer and he put his hand against my cheek and rubbed his thumb slightly over my cut "Yeah but I was still a little too late, sorry 'bout that" he smiled a little more, making my heart flutter slightly.

"No it's okay" I turned away blushing a bit. 'Jeez, don't randomly be sweet all of a sudden like that my heart can't take it' I sighed to myself.

"Let's go Lucy, otherwise we'll be late again" he chuckled as he was already in front of me.

"Ah, wait up!" I ran up to him to catch up and we were on our way again heading to school.

"I heard what happened are you alright Lucy?" Cana asked with a worried expression on her face.

I smiled toward her "Yeah, I'm fine everyone came to save me just in time."

Cana flinched her fist and held it up close to her "I should have been there I would have made sure none of them could walk ever again"

I laughed nervously at Cana "Now, now" I said calming.

"Here" Gray came up to us and placed a small bag on my desk, "Levy wanted me to give it to you since she has StuCo duties this morning" he smiled.

"Thanks" I smiled back and he took his sit two in front of Natsu and next to Levy's desk. Then I noticed something…

"Ah Gray" Cana started, "Hmm..?" she bluntly stated, "Your clothes".

He glanced down and jumped up; "Ah!" he was only wearing his boxers.

"What just happened?" I asked in a state of confusion. Cana and Natsu started laughing.

"Hey ice stripper but some damn clothes on!" Natsu called as he through Gray's clothes at him.

"You want to go flame brain!" Gray yelled holding onto his clothes as he started to get dressed again.

"He has a bad habit of that" Cana laughed.

"Ye-yeah…" was all that came out of my mouth as I realized Fairy High is probably stranger that I thought, "So…why?" I asked again. "

He use to live in the mountains for training when he was young and so he could get use to the cold he was to chop wood and all the stuff in only his boxers, or something like that" Natsu said leaning on his elbow bored with the topic already. I was still confused and why that make since to get use to the cold is some ways I still don't understand why he randomly strips. I sighed once more realizing I won't get any of the answers I wanted and they would only make me more confused.

"Wait did Natsu do something similar?" I asked Cana hoping she know what I was referring to.

"You're talking about his heighten senses right? Well… his story is a little more complicated, well Gray's is to but I think it would just be easier if you ask Natsu directly" Cana whispered toward me. She then went to her desk knowing class was going to start soon.

Class went by slow today, making me zone out more than I am used to, but I was distracted by Natsu pulling his chair to my desk once more. "What are you doing?" I asked him making him look confused.

"Its lunch time" he spoke, making me look at my watch.

"Oh… I guess I didn't hear the bell" I laughed slightly.

"Yeah" he smiled and opened the bento I made up.

"Wow Natsu you have food for once" Gray laughed as he sat down in the empty chair in front of mine.

"Oh this? Lucy made it for me" he smiled.

"Oh really, make me one too Lucy" Gray smiled at me.

"A man makes his own lunch!" a tan young man stood up one foot on the chair of his desk while he held up his bento.

"Elfman sit down, before you fall!" Jet called to him. He was a tall, built and had white hair.

"That's Elfman Strauss" Gray chuckled.

"Wait he's Mira's brother?" I asked a little shocked.

"Yeah, they are close siblings but unless you know them well, you would never know they were related, well besides the white hair" Gray turned around and picked up a cut hot dog shaped like an octopus from my bento. "This is good" he said while eating it.

"He-hey now" I sighed knowing that with this group of people there was no point in trying to argue or stop them.

"Gray go eat your own food" Natsu glared at him slightly

"Are you kidding no way am I going to let you enjoy a homemade bento that a girl made just for you" Gray teased causing me to be in the middle of their stare off.

"Oh wow Lu you're adding people to the group huh" Levy giggled as she came up on the conversation Jet and Droy behind her like always.

"Oh Lev" I smiled "Natsu, Gray can you guys put the other desk together, it'll be fine if we can all eat together right?" I questioned them, but it was more of 'do it, do it now or I will poison your food' tone of voice. They did as they were told and we spent the rest of lunch joking about the different stories of the school year, and while I was not there I didn't feel excluded and it felt like I was part of Fairy High already.

School was over in a flash but I stayed behind waiting for Natsu so I could get the bento container I gave him earlier this morning. I was outside the teacher office waiting over hearing the lecture Natsu was being giving. "And what do you plan to do if you keep getting into trouble and failing test Mr. Dragneel?" there was silence and then I heard Natsu sigh.

"Mr. Freed Justine, I understand your concern, but right now I believe I am still in the safe zone for my classes and the write ups on my behavior; not to mention all of the write ups are from different schools."

I heard the teacher's voice groan in annoyance "That's because you can't leave the other students alone and you always cause trouble Natsu" a sigh and a pause came from the room, "You may go… But stop getting in trouble Natsu." The door then slid open and I looked up at Natsu whose eyes were a little wide with surprise.

"Lucy?"

(P.O.V Natsu)

I walked out of the room, tired from another lecture from Freed, he was only 2 years older but because he is a teacher I can't really talk back to him. My thoughts stopped as I was shocked to see Lucy standing there, "Um… did you need to talk to a teacher?" I pointed behind me into the room. She just smiled and shook her head no, so I slide the door shut and walked over to her as she looked down.

"Sorry…" he voice was small, "…you got in trouble cause you came to save me…"

I laughed a little making her look up at me confused. "I get in trouble all the time, plus if I didn't go save you, I wouldn't be able to face anyone her at Fairy High, we're a family Lucy, including you." I grinned and her eyes lit up, her lips curling into a smile. "Oh here" I pulled her bento box out of my bag and handed it to her, "It was delicious by the way." We started walked to the entrance of the school.

"Really?" she questioned.

"Yeah, I just wish Happy could have tasted that, he would have loved it" I chuckled picturing my brother's face.

"Happy?" she was confused from the strange nickname, I suppose.

"His real name is Yuki, it means happiness" I smiled once more. We stopped at the lockers and I realized hers was only a few away from mine.

"I didn't know you had a brother" I put on my red converses and stretched.

"Yeah, he's my adopted brother I guess you could say, when I was young I found him abandoned in the wood"

She looked at me confused once more "huh?" I smiled to reassure her.

"Don't worry its not a painful story or anything, I actual named him Yuki cause he was the happiest baby I have ever seen, he even made me happy" I laughed and she giggled making me look at her.

"You're like a child, you're always so cheerful, but I see why you nick named Yuki, Happy" she giggled more.

"You want to meet him?" I asked now outside the school walking back to the intersection where we met.

"I don't want to impose…" she thought about it.

"You can make us dinner" I stopped and grinned at her, she just stared at me for a moment but then she smiled and lit up the dark sky.

"Okay" she started to walk ahead knowing how to get to the intersection. "Come on Natsu, I don't know where you live" she giggled calling back to me. My heart skipped a beat slightly, so slightly that if it wasn't pounding so hard I'm pretty sure I wouldn't even had noticed it. I ran up to Lucy and we kept walking.

"Don't get full of yourself you'll get lost if you lead" I laughed and she pouted as we continued.

"I'm home!" I yelled loudly as I opened the door with a slam.

"Ah, welcome back Natsu! Aio says welcome back to-", he paused "who's she?" Happy asked.

"Oh this is Lucy, she's a friend from school, she's ganna make us dinner" I grinned then Happy got a glint in his eye.

"So she's your girl friend?" I stared at him.

"Ah no…"

"You llllooove her" he rolled his tongue and dropped Aio putting his hands on either side of his face.

"I said no you little rascal" I started to chase him around the apartment. I could hear Lucy giggling still by the door as she watched us. Once I got a hold of Happy I walked over to Lucy as I picked him up by his blue jacket making him look like a cat. "Now tell Miss Lucy sorry" hoping he would listen and behave.

"Sorry Lucy" he said happily.

"Don't worry about it" she laughed and held out her hand, "It's nice to meet you Happy"

Happy held his hand out, "Aye" I placed him down and he went to go chase after our cat.

"He's adorable" Lucy said.

"He's a pain" I sighed.

"Yeah, but you love him" she smiled up at me and I rubbed the back of my neck looking away a little. 'I'm glad that I cleaned up a little today' I thought as I walked over to the kitchen Lucy fallowing me. "Well here is our kitchen it's not much though" Lucy looked around and set the groceries we bought at the convenience store down on the table.

"Its fine, it's nice, now you go relax and I'll start cooking" she put her hands into fist and a look of confidence came over her.

"Okay…" I looked at her, a little concerned that my kitchen might get destroyed but I just headed to my room. Once I got there I saw Happy laying on my bed doing his homework Aio laying on his back.

"Hi Natsu" he smiled up at me.

"Hey Happy" I laid next to him "do you need help with your homework?" I asked laying my head on my crossed arms.

"Nope I can do this stuff" he smiled at me and I closed my eyes.

"Okay, well wake me up when Lucy is done with dinner…"

"Aye" he replied.

(P.O.V Lucy)

The food was almost done, and surprisingly the apartment was quiet, "Hi Lucy" I heard Happy come into the kitchen, Aio in his arms.

"Hey Happy, dinner is almost ready" I smiled to him and he sat down on the floor against the wall petting his blue cat.

"How is Natsu in school Lucy?" he asked while looking down petting the cat.

"Ah… good, why do you ask?" I said as I mixed around some food in a pan.

"He doesn't bring people over much, so I was wondering if he has friends, or if he is being bullied or something…" I started to laugh and Happy looked up at me.

"No its nothing like that, he has a lot of friends Happy, and they all care for each other very much" I walked over to him and kneeled down to his level "You're a good little brother for worrying about him, but he is just fine at school, I'll keep an eye on him for you okay" I smiled placing my hand on his head.

"Aye, thank you Lucy" he smiled.

"Now go get Natsu, tell him dinner is done" his catch phrase leaving his lips once more as we ran down the hall to Natsu's room.

Natsu came into the kitchen his hair a mess and his scarf uneven around his neck, "Morning, sleepy" I joked as he woke up more to see the spread on the table.

"Wow this looks good!" he exclaimed, Happy agreeing with him.

"Aye!"

I sat down, "Well this is for you guys so dig in" they fallowed my exampled and sat down. It was kind of nostalgistic sitting there eating with people at a dinner table, I haven't done that since I was a child.

"This is really good"

"Aye" they both commented with their mouths full causing me to smile.

"Oh…" I looked over at a table and sitting on top of it were two pictures framed in wood. One was of a young Natsu and a toddler Happy and the other was a younger Natsu and a man; he had long deep red hair, brownish red eyes, a little red stubble for a beard, and slightly tan skin. He wore brown pants, a white button up shirt, and a long gold ear ring on his left ear. "Who's that?" I thought out loud pointing toward the photos.

"Oh that's Igneel, my dad" Natsu said as he turned around food still in his mouth.

"Oh yeah, should I save some food for him?" I questioned, not even thinking about the rest of his family.

"Ah, you don't have to worry" Natsu said, "he's been missing for 7 years now" I froze at his words, so much for this being just a happy dinner at Natsu's.

To be continued...
