Well, ENJOY!
CHRISTMAS FANFIC-
x-x-x-x-x
Natsu was holding the girl he had a crush on. An extremely LARGE crush on. Well, at least she had fainted. His cheeks were burning a bright shade of red and...
Wait.
Fainting wasn't supposed to be a good thing was it?...
He tore out of the room and slammed into the kitchen, giving Makarov a frantic look.
"GRAMPS!"
"Eh? Ah! Look, Jannie! It's Nashu!" the old man swayed around while holding a bottle of beer.
After saying this, the silver-haired woman came rushing out of the back room and paused when she saw him.
"Natsu! It's been a while since you came! Why does Lucy look like she's dead? You didn't do anything to her, right?" Mira gave him a slightly demonic look while smiling innocently.
"She just fainted and- wait- NO! I didn't do anything I swear!" he nearly shouted when the knife came soaring through the air.
"Really?" the blade was lodged in the wall behind him.
Natsu nodded slowly.
"Alright!" and she started smiling again.
He sighed in relief. Mira was usually sweet but also had a demon side when you did anything wrong. She was especially over-protective of her co-workers. Which got him in trouble a few times before... but that wasn't the problem now.
"She fainted at the register. I don't know why." the pink haired male spoke.
"Hmmm. Well, could you take her home with you? You both live in the same dorm. I'm pretty sure you two are in the same college classes too right?" she put a hand on Lucy's forehead to check her temperature.
"Yeah, but not all of them." he looked down at the blond only to go red again.
"Do you think you could take her back to her room?" Mira came over with a wet cloth.
"Umm, I don't-" Natsu started to shift from one foot to the other.
"Great! Her stuff is in the back room and I think she should have her keys in her bag." the older woman said while giving him a push out of the kitchen.
"But-"
"See ya! Let me know if anything happens to her!" and the doors flapped together softly.
There was silence for a while. The white-haired girl started washing the dirty dishes.
The old man sitting on the counter-top took another swig from his bottle.
"Ya know Mira, there was another way." he spoke while sipping the water the lady handed to him begrudgingly.
She gave him a wide grin.
"Of course. But this will be more amusing."
The two figures outside started walking across the street.
"I should really check up on Lucy in a week." she murmured with a knowing smile. Mira started to hum.
Makarov gave a tired sigh.
His head was spinning around in circles.
Why did Mira have to let Lucy go with him of all people! Not to mention that she actually had a CAR to drive in. His legs were getting tired.
Surprisingly, the blond didn't have a lot of stuff. Just a jacket and a bag that seemed weightless.
He looked up at the sky.
White flakes were starting to fall.
Well, it was winter. Christmas was coming up soon too.
The white slush was piling up. His shoes made footsteps in the snow while he walked. Lucy was on his back.
He trudged on while a million thoughts were swirling around in his head.
When he got to the dorm, he stood there for a minute. Just standing.
In a way, this wasn't so bad. He definitely wouldn't have wanted the blond to go back with someone else.
He had known her since childhood after all. Well, not that Lucy would have payed him much attention.
The pink haired boy walked up the stairs of the building. Thank god her key was labeled. He didn't know which room she lived in.
By the time he found the right place, Natsu felt sluggish and sleepy. Gently letting the girl down onto the floor in a sitting position, he unlocked the door and walked into a dark room.
Putting everything down on a nearby table, he picked her up again and put her on the bed. He pulled up the covers and looked at her face with a longing look.
He really wished that he was her boyfriend. Someone who could see her everyday and be able to love her freely.
The boy sighed. His eyes swept across the room. It was really neat and clean. The complete opposite of his.
He sat down on a chair. Just to rest for a second.
He closed his eyes and leaned back. A pang of sadness came up in his chest.
The image of a girl's smiling face sprang up in his mind. When Lucy was little.
He smiled. Maybe after this, something good would happen between them.
But of course, it would definitely take a miracle to get something like that.
I kind of don't know what I wrote just then but... at least I have some new ideas!
Hope you guys can keep reading even though it's WAY past christmas!
Love ya!
