Lucy looked at herself in the mirror as she slung her bag over her shoulder. She had on a red chequered mini skirt with a white shirt on top and knee high brown boots. Securing her hair into a side pony with a red ribbon and her bangs left out to the side she smiled at herself in the mirror. Not bad, she thought Taking a look at her surroundings she sighed and whispered "Only one week I'll be back"

x~x~x

Locking the door behind her she turned around only to be knocked face to face with a certain salmon haired friend of hers.

"Kyaaaaaaaaaa" She screamed in fright accidentally slapping him in the face.

"Owe Luceeee, what was that for"

"Natsu! Oh my god I'm so sorry you-I thought-" She suddenly blushed thinking how stupid she must sound "You just em-scared me" Her voice growing quieter with the each last word.

Happy flew up besides Natsu his face squished and his paws holding his mouth. "Or is it because you likeeeeee him"

A sweat drop formed on Lucy's head "What that doesn't even make any sense"

Natsu watched as the blue cat and the blonde mage argued on, the conversation soon turning into something about fish with a bemused smile plastered across his slightly tanned face. He couldn't help but grin as Happy started to fly around the celestrial wizard taunting her on how she couldn't catch him and that all the fish in the world was his.

"What you smiling at now" Lucy huffed in annoyance as she turned to face her partner.

"W-huh nothing" A blush creeping on his face on how stupid he must have looked with that goofy grin on his face.

"Anyways" Lucy started to ramble on ignoring the look on Natsu's face. " Aren't we supposed to be leaving about now"

"Oh yeah, about that..I can't, I told Wendy and Carla I would help them out on a mission this morning that lasts for 3 days." Happy sweat dropped.

"WHAT?" Natsu and Lucy practically screamed at him. "But that's after I told you about the training thing last night"

"Hehe" Happy squeaked out before turning around and flying at full speed away from the two friends.

"GET BACK HERE YOU STUPID CAT" Lucy screamed after him but Happy was long gone.

"Guess its just the two of us then"

Lucy turned to look over at Natsu, his soft pink hair blowing gently in the wind and his onyx eyes looking far out into the distance. She stood there for a moment memorising all the details in his face when he looked over and smiled at her. She instantly blushed and averted her gaze which fell down onto her boots. "Y-Yeah lets go"

"You weirdo"

x~x~x

The hike up towards the mountains had been long and difficult and Lucy huffed out in defeat.

"Lets park out here for the night I'm starving"

Lucy glanced over at him wondering how he could eat so much but still remain healthy. Seriously he just ate 10 minutes ago. If she were to eat even a little peice of cake she would instantly gain a pound or two and often worried about her weight. "Okay" She sighed reluctantly throwing her bag to the hard ground and collapsing next to it. They had been hiking four hours straight now and were somewhere in some deep forest. She took out a map to study where they were but even with the intense glow from Natsu's fire she couldn't figure out exactly where they were. Her daze started to get blurry and she tried to blink back the tiredness but it soon overtook her, her conscience taken away to a land of fairy tails (A/N Sorry I couldn't help myself xD) and dreams.

x~x~x

She awoke to the sound of gentle snores beside of her. Turning around her eyes fell upon Natsu's face which was squished into a tiny cute pout. She stiffened a giggle and prodded his nose with her fingertip. Suddenly reality snapped her back into focus. She was alone with Natsu. In a tent. In the same SLEEPING BAG!

"KYAAAAA NATSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU" She screamed struggling to jump out the sleeping bag but just getting tangled up further.

"Mhmm.. igneel?" Natsu lazily rubbed his eyes still half asleep. His eyes fully opened and he saw Lucy tragically squirming about and finally getting out of the sleeping bag only to knock her head on the roof of the tent thus flipping the whole thing over.

"BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA" Natsu laughed tears streaming down the sides of his face. "Luce you weirdo"

Lucy watched her guild mate as she lay in a heap on the ground with a huff of annoyance. He was rolling around the floor laughing as she sighed not even bothering to get back up. The first day of training with him had officially begun.
