Bath time


Knock, knock! Twelve year old Asuka bit her lip, excited to pick up little Nashi for a walk to the park. She loves hanging out with the little guy, he is such a bundle of pink tinted energy.

The door to the Dragneel household opened to reveal a haggard looking Lucy...with bath bubbles sitting in a damp lump on her frazzled hair.

"Lucy-nee? What happened?"

The blonde leaned her cheek against the side of the door tiredly, "Tried to give Nashi a bath. He decided I needed a crown made of bubbles."
In the background, Asuka can hear water splashing and childish giggles from both father and son.

"Oh? Should I wait or come back later?"

Before Lucy could reply, a high pitched squeal was heard followed by the bang of a door. Asuka only had to blink once before a very naked and bubble covered Nashi ran through the hallway behind his mother. She burst out laughing, only to choke on the air in her lungs when a naked Natsu thundered after the toddler. with a giant mass of bubbles on his head.

"Get back here, you!"

Little Nashi only giggled in response, "Bubbles!"

Asuka slapped her hands over her eyes with embarassment as Lucy whirled around. Grabbing one of her sandals, she chucked it at her husband's head when her boys passed through the hallway a second time.

"Put some clothes on!" she roared.

The sandal aimed true because it had enough velocity to knock the naked man off his feet, causing him to slip onto his back and slide the rest of the way down the hallway at break neck speed. The crash from Dragonslayer meeting the various keepsakes from their jobs together that lined the wall like a bowling ball to bowling pins was loud and chaotic. At the sound, Lucy winced and groaned at the impending thought of cleaning up the mess.

Chuckling, Asuka stepped into the house with her hands on her hips, "I'll get the broom and dustpan."

"I'll get the towels and first aid kit."

Standing over his groaning papa, little naked Nashi threw a handful of soapy bubbles into the air like confetti.

"Bubbles!"
