~PREVIOUSLY ON THE LAST CHAPTER~

"Oh I see now!" Lucy said. Natsu nodded.

"Ah, I don't care what gender it'll be. I just want the baby to be born healthy and happy." Lucy smiled patting her stomach. Natsu grinned.

"Same here."

Lucy opened her fridge door, looking through and then sighing. She closed the door and went to the living room.

"Natsuuu! I'm hungry!"

"You just ate a couple minutes ago!"

"Well excuse me if I'm feeding someone else other then myself." Lucy huffed crossing her arms.

Lucy was only 2 months pregnant and her moods keep on swinging. Her stomach was a bit swollen but you could definitely see if she was pregnant or not.

Half of Lucy's memories are back which a good thing is, but she still hasn't received her other half. Natsu stood up from his spot and stood in front of Lucy.

"Do you want to go to the guild?"

"Yes,"

"Are you craving anything?" Lucy shook her head. Even if it has been 2 months, Lucy never got a single craving but her mood swings were violent.

Since Lucy never gotten a craving yet, they won't know if they baby was going to be a male or a female.

"Guess it'll take longer than 2 months. . ." Natsu mumbled to himself.

"Let's go to the guild! I'm hungry!"

"Same here, let's go." Natsu grabbed her hand and the two headed out the door.

Everyday Natsu still tried getting most of Lucy's memories back but it always fails. The baby helps her a lot, but she gets so tired after she faints.

Lucy and Natsu became a couple since Lucy's memories were coming back, and Natsu was happy.

He finally could hold and kiss Lucy again but the 'sleeping together' part was not on the list.

Natsu was a great husband, caring for Lucy and fulfilling her wishes. He gave her what she wanted, as long the prices were normal she gets what she wants from the man she loves.

The two couple entered Fairy Tail, greeting people and getting greeted. They went to the bar and ordered some food.

"Hey Mira, can I have some fire food?"

"Sure, and you Lucy?"

"Hmmm, I want . . . some cake."

"Coming right up." Mira left to go get her food. Natsu turned to Lucy. "It's going to be a boy!"

"Huh? How do you know?"

"You said you wanted cake, it's manmade." Lucy rolled her eyes. "No it's not. . ."

"Well, it is since you need to get sugar then the bread and baking soda and-"

"No! I mean the baby." Lucy sighed. "We'll see." Natsu grinned as he kissed her cheek.

Mirajane soon came back with a tray full of food, handing Natsu and Lucy their orders. "So, Lucy. Do you know the baby's gender?"

"No, not yet. Natsu keeps on saying it's a boy though. . ." Lucy said looking at her husband who was stuffing himself.

"Oh find out soon, sweetie! We need to go baby shopping for the little one!"

"Awe, you guys don't have to do that for us. We'll deal with that."

"Lucy! That's so hurtful!" Mira said putting a hand on her chest and frowning. Lucy raised a brow looking at her.

"Baby shopping is fun and you just want to keep all the fun to yourself, don't you?"

"Oh no Mira! I just don't want you guys to spend your money for us. . ."

"Lucy, we offered."

"But still. . ."

"Come on, Lucy. The girls will go shopping all together." Mira smiled. Lucy sighed and nodded.

You never win in an argument with Mirajane; it's never been done or will be done. Lucy started eating her cake and sighed.

She could just go to the doctors and check up on her but Natsu wouldn't allow that for some reason.

He makes Porlyusica check her and doesn't let anybody else touching her. He's such a protective husband, like any other man who loves their woman.

Lucy just finished her cake when a tingling feeling ran down her body, making Lucy shivers and focus all her attention her husband.

"Natsu."

"Hm?" He looked at her as he drunk the last bit of his fire whiskey. "I want some." Lucy pointed towards his fire pasta.

Mira dropped the glass she was cleaning and Natsu spit his drink out. "W-What?" He said whipping his mouth.

"I want some of your food!"

"L-Lucy, its fire food. It's too hot and spicy for you."

"Natsu. I. Want. Some." Natsu looked at Mira and she looked at him. "Uh, sure." He got a fork full of pasta but blowing the fire out.

"You sure?" He asked one final time. Lucy nodded opening her mouth. Natsu shrugged as he fed her some fire pasta.

Lucy chewed and finally swallowed. Mira and Natsu watched her reaction, to see if her mouth burned or she threw up but she did none.

"That's good, give me more."

"Lucy, are you feeling alright?"

"I'm fine! I just want some food."

"But my food? You never liked it since it was so hot and spicy."

"Well, I do now. For some reason it's not that spicy or hot." Natsu's face stretched into a grin and he cheered.

Cheered so loud it startled some members in the guild. "Natsu?"

"You know what this means?" He asked holding her hands in his and sparkling. "Eh?"

"IT'S GOING TO BE A BOY!" Lucy watched as he jumped around, cheering and screaming. "A-A boy? What are you talking about?"

"The baby! The baby will be a boy!" He shouted and Fairy Tail roared. "This calls for a celebration!" Cana shouted throwing her beer mug in the air.

They all roared once more, agreeing with her plan.

A celebration or party in the guild means free drinks and food, which is why Cana loves Fairy parties or celebrations.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Natsu you don't know that yet!"

"Yes I do. Lucy you started craving cake and now you want my fire food! You've always hated my food since it was too hot and spicy for you but you said it's not spicy or hot! It's going to be a boy Luce! I can see it now! I'll train him and show him all my moves!" Natsu grinned as he held a fist up.

Lucy gulped as she imagined that.

"Natsu Dragneel! You and you're son are arrested for destroying most of the city!"

"No!" Lucy shouted. "You're going to get arrested!"

"Huh? What are you talking about, Luce?" Natsu asked tilting his head sideways.

"It'll be double trouble! No!" Lucy said waving her hand in the air. Natsu raised a brow looking at her. "All I'm saying is, do not get arrested!"

"Uh, sure. . ." He said staring at her weirdly. Lucy sighed as Natsu gave her a quick kiss and ran off the party with the rest of the guild.

"Oh! If it's a boy we need to go shopping this instance!" Mira said taking her apron off. "But Mira, we don't know yet."

"I'll call Porlyusica to check up on you!" Mira said as she ran off. Lucy sighed again.

"Lu-Chan! Congratulations!" Levy came to her smiling. Gajeel was just behind her, chewing on scraps of metal.

"Thanks Levy-Chan."

"I feel bad for you, Bunny-girl."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because, if the child goes after salamander, it'll be double trouble. More destruction, more paperwork and all that shit."

"I know!" Lucy cried. "Don't worry Lu-Chan! We'll go through this together!" Levy smiled.

Levy Mcgarden, 5 weeks pregnant with Gajeel's child but still hasn't married the fool.

"Gajeel, when are you going to propose to her?" Lucy yelled at him, planting her hands on her hips. "When I want to."

"Gajeel! You need to marry her before you get her pregnant!"

"Says who?"

"Do you seriously want to make your girlfriend pregnant and not be her husband?"

"I don't care." Levy smacked him. "You never think about me!" Levy cried running off. "Wait! Levy!"

"See?" Lucy said crossing her arms. Gajeel glared at her and ran off towards Levy. "Lucy! Porlyusica is coming soon!"

"Alright, Thanks Mira."

"You're welcome! After we find out we'll get Erza, Levy, Lisanna, Wendy, and Juvia and we'll all go shopping!" Mira sang as she clapped her hands together.

Lucy smiled at her. "Okay!"

"Do you want anything, honey? Some foods? Drinks? Snacks? You name it, I'll give it."

"Hmmm, I'm craving something hot and spicy, also some sweet things. Like cookies, cakes, stuff like that."

"Right away!" She said as she ran back. As she left, Erza came. "Lucy, I heard the news, congratulations." Erza smiled.

"Thanks Erza, but we're not really sure yet. . . We called Porlyusica just in case." Lucy said smiling back.

"Great, we'll know by then." Just then the guild doors opened showing a pink haired woman with a straight face.

"Where's that pregnant Blondie?" She asked rather too harshly. "Oh! Grandine!" Wendy smiled big as she saw her Edolas mother.

"I said not to call me that." She said. Wendy smiled sweetly. "Sorry," Wendy said and Porlyusica smiled back a bit.

"Oh, Porlyusica-san." Lucy went forwards smiling and trying her best not to stutter.

"You. Come follow me, Wendy would you like to help?"

"Hai!" She sang happily as she followed her and Lucy towards the infirmary.

Natsu who heard everything ran after them, happily dancing and singing around as a proud father of a child. "Sit down on the bed."

"H-Hai." Said Lucy as she quickly sat on the bed. Natsu came next to her, holding her hand and grinning at her.

"Are you as excited as I am?"

"Of course, I'm just a bit nervous."

"Don't worry Lucy; just think of all the good possibilities. We'll build our family; we'll be a happy family." Natsu said patting her hand.

Lucy smiled at him as another flash came into her eyes.

"Lucy Heartfillia, would you marry me?" Natsu asked kneeing down and holding out a ring in front of her. Lucy looked at him with wide eyes.

"No." She said. Natsu blinked, eyebrow knitted together. "What?" He asked. "You're so stupid! Of course!" Lucy started laughing.

Natsu stood up, scratching his head awkwardly. "You're such a weirdo." Lucy smiled. "I'll marry you. I love you."

Lucy closed her eyes shut and put a hand on her head, shaking the feeling off her. "Luce? Are you alright?" He asked worried coating his words.

"Y-Yeah. . . Another flash. . ." Natsu's eyes twinkled as he smiled. "What was it this time?"

"You were proposing to me." Natsu started laughing. "That was funny, wasn't it?" Lucy smiled at him. "Did I really say no?"

"Yeah, it surprised me. I was like: What the hell?" Lucy giggled. "Most of my memories are back . . . our little one is helping me lots."

"That reminds me, what are we going to name him?"

"It's not a boy!"

"Porlyusica! What's the baby's gender?" Natsu asked. She turned around, facing the couple. She pointed towards Lucy. "Come here."

"H-Hai." Lucy slowly stood up with Natsu following after her. "How are you feeling right now?"

"Uh, happy, excited, nervous and for some reason . . . fired up?" Natsu started laughing. "See! It will be a guy!"

"Craving anything out of the ordinary?"

"Like spicy hot stuff, sweet things."

"You hear that Wendy? Another baby Dragon slayer would be running around the guild soon!"

"Cool! Am I going to be an Aunt then?"

"Yeah you are!" Natsu grinned. Wendy grinned her fang like teeth and cheered. "Hmm, how's your mood swings and what can you choke down?"

"My mood swings don't really come often. When it is, it's violent or just moody. I could eat fruits, sweets, and hot and spicy things but I can't eat anything else. I'll throw up later."

She nodded, scribbling something down on a piece of paper. "So! It's going to be a guy, right?" Natsu asked excitedly.

She was silent for a moment before shoving a piece of paper in front of her face.

"I'll be leaving now." She gathered her things as she left the infirmary. Wendy followed after her leaving the couple in the room.

Lucy looked at the piece of paper and Natsu peered over her shoulder. 'You're knocked up with a boy. Good luck.'

Natsu started laughing as he slapped it knees. It appeared to him that it was hilarious. Lucy blushed as she sighed.

Isn't there a better way to break the news to her?

"I told you it'll be a boy! I told you!"

"Fine, fine. Now I need to go tell everyone else."

"You owe me a kiss first!"

"I need to go shopping." Lucy crossed her arms a bit pissed he was making such a big deal out of the gender. Natsu grinned at her.

"Is Lucy mad the baby's not a girl?"

"No, I'm mad since you're acting like you won the lottery." Natsu snickered.

"Come on! Think of the awesome mission's we'll go on, the epic fights, and all the awesome moves I'll show him!"

"Oh yeah? Think of you behind bars while I'm on the other side." Natsu was silent looking at her. "I'm going to jail?" Lucy face palmed while groaning.

"You're a trouble maker right now! If our little one acts like you, we don't know what he's capable of doing with you!"

"You don't need to worry about that. We'll be careful." Natsu grinned. Lucy sighed. "So, what are we going to name him?"

"We'll think of names, but right now I need to go tell the girls."

"Can I have a kiss first?" Lucy smiled as she went near Natsu to give a sweet passionate kiss on the lips.

They pulled away as Lucy hugged him.

"Natsu, you mean the world to me."

"Same here."

"Even if my memories about you are lost, I'll try my best to get them back. I love you."

"I love you too; now have fun shopping with the girls. If I find out you're hurt in any way I'll personally hurt the person who hurt you and never let you out of my sight again. Am I clear Lucy Dragneel?"

Lucy smiled at him and gave him a peck on the cheek. "Yes sir, I'll be back soon." Lucy pulled away from him.

Natsu grinned grabbing her hand and the two left the infirmary. When they left, the guild up roared with cheers.

They heard the news from Wendy. "Congratulations Lucy and Natsu!"

"Lucy! Hurry now! We need to get shopping!" Mira shouted from below, waving her hand in the air.

Lucy smiled as she let go of Natsu's hand. I'll be back." Lucy quickly kissed him on the cheek as she went down the stairs and went to the girls.

Natsu watched from above, his head leaning against his arm and his other arm on the railing. Lucy smiled and talked with the girls, leaving for the door.

Lucy took one look back at Natsu and waved. Natsu waved back grinning. She smiled and left the guild and as soon as she did Natsu cheered.

"LET'S PARTY FOR MY SON!" The guild cheered and screamed as Natsu jumped down and started laughing and talking with people.

He was going to be a proud father of a son. Someone who he can finally call family.

His beautiful wife, Lucy Dragneel and soon to be born son.

-TO LUCY-

"You're having a boy, Lu-Chan! I hope mine will be a girl! We'll be lucky enough for them to fall in love~" Levy giggled. Lucy laughed. "That'll be so cute!"

"Soon the next generation will start, little kiddies running around." Mirajane smiled. The girls all nodded, laughing.

"Lucy, did you get a name for the kid yet?" Lisanna asked. Lucy shook her head.

"No, Natsu and I haven't decided yet."

"Oh yeah, be careful when it comes to names."

"What do you mean Erza?"

"Natsu is horrible at choosing names." Lucy raised a brow. "Natsu is? Juvia heard he named Happy."

"Yeah, but he first wanted to name it 'eggy' at first." Lisanna giggled. Lucy sweat dropped imagining Happy's name, eggy.

"It was cute at first but got weird and I eventually got him to think of another name."

"I hope he doesn't name the baby something weird! I don't want people making fun of him because of his weird name!"

"Like people make fun of Natsu's pink hair?"

"Precisely! My poor babies!" Lucy cried out. "Don't worry Natsu, he'll try and agree on a name you like too."

"I hope so. . ." Lucy sighed. "Lucy, let's go in there! Come on girls! Levy, you are next on the list!" Mira winked as she dragged Lucy in the store.

The girls all followed and Levy gulped, a shopping frenzy will start soon.

~X~

"Levy-Chan~" Lucy whispered. "Yes Lu-Chan?" She whispered back. "Do you think we should stop them?"

"Let them be, we're the pregnant ones here."

The two looked at Juvia, Lisanna, Erza, and Mira battling over random strangers for clothes and yelling.

Fairy Tail couldn't go anywhere without being noticed.

They're too loud, crazy, and they always seem to destroy something along the way.

"Um excuse me, miss I saw this first." A lady said as she held the other end of the shirt. Lisanna held the other scoffing.

"No! I did!" Lisanna tugged on the baby shirt. The lady gapped at her, tugging back.

Lisanna growled as she pulled hard and the lady flipped forward, falling on the ground.

"Thank you!" She smiled skipping away. "Demons!"

"You will hand me this outfit or I will slice you with my millions of swords." Erza glared threatening an old lady.

The lady fainted and let's goes of the shirt, collapsing to the ground. Erza smiled as she walked away, looking at other baby stuff.

"Let go girly! I saw this one first!" Mira hissed tugging on the piece of clothing. The other younger lady growled at her tugging back.

"My sister needs this more then you!" She shouted back. "Well my nakama need this WAY more than your sister!" Mira shouted. "Let go!"

"No, you let go! This is mine!"

"Get your own! This is mine!"

"Just hand me this!"

"It's mine!" Mira growled as she changed forms. She was now Satan soul, glaring at the miss.

"Hand me that!" She hissed. The miss squeaked quickly handing Mira the clothes and running for her life.

Mira changed back, smiling and humming to herself. "I've got it~" She sang.

"Juvia likes this." Juvia said to herself as she looked at a red dragon toy in front of her.

"Maybe Juvia will get this for Lucy's baby." She reached for it but another pair grabbed it.

It was a woman, about 23 years of age and she liked the doll. She looked at Juvia and Juvia looked back.

"Um, Juvia saw that first."

"Sorry miss but my son really likes Dragons."

"But Juvia needs that badly!"

"I'm sorry, I'm pretty sure there are other ones." Juvia shook her head as she grabbed the Dragon's tail.

"Juvia needs this one for Lucy's baby." The woman sweat dropped and tugged on it. "Miss, there are plenty of other ones-"

"Juvia will get this!" Juvia said as she pulled on harder. The lady glared as the two started tugging on it and yelling at each other.

They started to fight and soon Juvia won with the lady stomping away and dripping wet. Juvia smiled as she looked at the doll, it was perfect.

"Juvia's gotten something!" She skipped towards the girls.

Mira, Lisanna, Erza, and Juvia all went to the cashier, paying for all the things she has won and soon leaving before they kick them out or report them for costumer disturbance or just making a huge mess in their shop.

"That was fun! Now we need to get something else for Lucy!" Lisanna smiled.

"Whoa, you guys have done quite enough. Maybe we should get going?" Lucy said.

"But Lucy, we need to get diapers and tissues, and toys, and lots more!" Mirajane said while she held two bags.

Erza nodded while holding a bag in her hand and Juvia smiled while carrying two bags in each hand.

Levy helped by carrying one small bag and walking next to Juvia.

"You guys done enough for today, I'll handle that with Natsu."

"Lucy!" Erza suddenly shouted which startled Lucy. Erza put a hand on her shoulder, lowering her head and her bottom lip quivering.

"E-Erz-?"

"What kind of nakama are we if we can't even do a simple task for our most beloved Lucy? We should be ashamed, letting the couple do the things by themselves! We should help them at least! Please Lucy! Punch me at your own will!" Erza said lowering her head and waiting for her punishment.

Lucy sweat dropped, gulping a bit. "E-Erza, I-it's fine. You guys don't need to-", "Erza is right!" Levy said.

"Levy-Chan?"

"What kind of nakama are we, if we don't help each other out? Lucy you need all these things and we're providing them for you!"

"Yes! Juvia will help Lucy with baby!"

"I'll also support! You cannot go through this all alone!"

"You see Lucy; it's not just Erza and I who want to help." Mirajane smiled at her.

"What am I going to do? And Natsu? What are we going to do that'll help the baby then?"

"Well you'll do the job as parents of course!"

"What about all the food and clothes-"

"We'll handle that for now!" Lisanna smiled. "Lucy, if there is anything you want, just tells us." Erza said.

"Stop this shopping frenzy and let me handle everything!"

"Except for that." Lucy groaned. "Everyone, let's go! I know this great baby shop where they sell the cutest things!" Levy squealed.

"Levy! You're pregnant too! You're supposed to be on my side!"

"Sorry Lu-Chan! Anyways, let's go everyone!"

"Yeah!" They all started to dash for a baby shop. Lucy sobbed quietly.

How is she going to fit and carry this home? What will Natsu say?

-AFTER SHOPPING-

Lucy was the first to enter Fairy Tail. All the girls were behind, talking or dragging shopping bags along.

Fairy Tail's celebration has died out some and it was a bit quieter then usual. Natsu spotted Lucy coming inside the guild and ran to her.

"Lucy!" he ran to her giving her a big hug. Lucy suddenly burst into tears and Natsu freaked out.

"What! Was it me?" Natsu asked cradling her in his arms. Lucy shook her head.

"Did someone hurt you? I'll burn them to crisps!" He growled. Lucy shook her head again. "Then what?"

"THE GIRLS!"

"What about them?"

"T-their..! Their..!"

"Their..?" The door opened again and came 5 mages, dragging about millions of shopping bags behind them.

Natsu's face dropped as his face became pale.

"Whew! Finally!" Levy sighed as she whipped the sweat off her forehead. "That was one hard trip." Erza said.

"How many bags do we have?" Lisanna asked. "Juvia counted 36." Juvia said as she recounted again.

"Wow! Lucy will have lots of things for the child! By the way, where is she?" Mira asked looking around.

The girls looked at Lucy who was in Natsu's arms, staring at them in disbelief. Natsu also stared at them, face pale and wide eyes.

"Their shopping maniacs!"

"Oh Lucy! Look at how much luggage you have!"

"How did you get 36 freaking bags?" Natsu shouted at them looking at the colorful shopping bags. "You know us woman," Mira winked.

"We shop till we drop." Levy added. "Or at least have no more money and no more hands to carry it." Lisanna giggled.

"How are we going to carry this entire 36 bags home?" Lucy asked them. "Simple, we'll just get some guys to help!"

"And who'll help us?"

"Some sober Fairies and you'll carry all these home in no time!"

Natsu and Lucy exchanged looks, an uneasy look on their face.

~X~

Gray, Elfman, Loki, Gajeel, Taurus, Panther lily, Happy, and Natsu all came into Lucy's apartment setting all the bags down.

"Thanks everyone." Lucy smiled weakly at them. Loki and Taurus disappeared and the men all collapsed on the ground or the couch.

"That was so tiring. . ." Gray said as he lied on the floor. "A real man doesn't buy so many things!"

"Well they aren't mans. . ."

"Aye! That was so hard! I'm never going shopping with the girls!"

"I agree, what kind of person buys this many things at one time?"

"I don't know maybe maniac?"

"Your girlfriend was one of them, Gajeel."

"Whatever, if she does this too I'll freaking die." They all sighed. Lucy came to them with water in a tray.

"Sorry you guys, it wasn't my idea. . ." Lucy said handing everyone a drink.

"We know, sweetheart. It was Erza's and Mira's fault. They threatened us." Natsu smiled patting her head. "Nee-Chan always gets carried away!"

"Mira with shopping, tsk."

"Thanks again you guys, you can go home." Lucy said. Everyone nodded as they all left their house, saying their goodbyes.

Natsu collapsed on the bed, worn out by all the walking and carrying. Lucy lied down next to him. "Sorry about all this."

"It's fine; it's not your fault."

"I said not to get so many things but Erza." Lucy sweat dropped. Natsu laughed nervously.

"Let's work on this tomorrow, alright? I'm tired. . ."

"Same here." Lucy said as she got under the covers.

Natsu also did, turning the lights off. "Good night, Luce."

"Night, Natsu." Lucy said before the two fell asleep on the bed.
