Three times.

Lucy and Natsu have slept together three times before they decided on their little friends-with-benefits arrangement.

How many times have they slept together since the arrangement?

Zero.

Fucking. Zero.

I don't get it! Lucy thought as she sat at one of the guild hall tables, her knee bouncing beneath it. Out of nerves or frustration, she wasn't sure. How is it that we were able to have loud, rough sex three times without getting caught, and now all of the sudden, since we decided we wanted to keep having sex, we can't seem to find the time of day?

In the week after the arrangement was agreed upon, they were always getting interrupted - either something comes up, or someone comes around.

Unfortunately, the only ones not coming were Natsu and Lucy.

And it was starting to piss the celestial mage off.

And now to top it all off, there was a party to celebrate the return of Gildarts. Lucy wasn't sure how long he had been gone this time, but regardless, it must have been long enough to warrant a party.

Of course, a busy party crowded with people should be the perfect opportunity for two people to slip outside, right?

Wrong.

So very wrong.

And Lucy wanted to blame the stupid dragon slayer who was too busy either trying to pick a fight with, or hearing stories of adventure from, the returning crash mage. If he would just turn the fuck around and make eye contact with her, she could convey to him how much she needed him. Yeah, she knew he's been getting desperate as well, but right here in this moment, it seemed he was too preoccupied to think about fucking the blonde.

Against the wall.

From behind.

Pulling her hair.

Biting her neck.

Whispering filthy words into her ear.

Stop it! Lucy hid her burning face in her hands and rubbed her thighs together in an attempt to ease some of the building pressure between them. She raised her head again to look around, just in time to see Natsu suddenly perk up.

He turned his head to the side and Lucy could see his brow furrow and his nose twitch. His eyes widened fractionally. When he stood, he nearly knocked the chair over, saying a few words to Gildarts and the rest of the group sitting with them before turning away. Almost instantly, he caught Lucy's eyes, and she saw the way his onyx eyes seemed to darken even further. He gave a slight jerk of his head to the stage area, the movement so slight that Lucy almost didn't catch it. She swallowed thickly and nodded, watching him turn and walk away. She stood and straightened her skirt before making her way to the stage where Natsu had disappeared behind the heavy curtains.

She had barely set a foot backstage before a hand grabbed her wrist and she was yanked into the darkness and shoved up against a nearby wall, a pair of lips pressing demandingly against hers.

"What were you thinking about?" Natsu growled against her lips when they parted. Lucy was already panting.

"I-I don't know what you're talking about," she breathed, her head rolling to the side as his mouth went to her neck. She hissed when she felt a sharp prick against her pulsepoint, then gasped as he put his hand under her skirt and roughly rubbed a finger against her.

"Bullshit. I could smell you getting wet. What were you thinking about?"

"Y-You!" she cried out in a whisper, head rolling back and eyes closing. "I was thinking about you fucking me. Natsu, I need you. I need you so fucking badly."

"I need you, too, Luce," he whispered hoarsely, pulling away and looking around in the darkness. There was no telling when someone might want to put on a little performance or drunkenly sing to the crowd, so where they were was not at all a safe place for this. He gave an 'ah-ha' sound before dragging Lucy away from the wall and shoving her through a door. She yelped when she fell over a small prop table, but she didn't even have time to straighten up before Natsu was right behind her, his groin right against her ass.

"Fuck, I've dreamed about bending you over a table for so long," he groaned as he grabbed her hips and ground himself against her.

"Looks like today's your lucky day," Lucy moaned, wiggling her ass against him. She heard him shift and bump into quite a few things with a curse.

"This place is so goddamn small," he muttered, barely having enough room to pull away from her to tug his trousers down. "Trust me, I want nothing more than to eat you out, Luce, but I need you too much right now."

His words sent desire shooting to her core, a soft moan falling from her lips, even more so when he flipped her skirt up and seamlessly tore away her panties. Gods, she loved that.

"It's okay, I need you, too. But," she looked at him over her shoulder with a glint in her eyes and a smirk on her lips, "I'm definitely holding you to that."

"Oh, believe me," Natsu said as he dragged his cock through her wet folds, the both of them shuddering at the feeling, "I will definitely have my face buried between those sweet thighs of yours the next time."

With that, he thrust into her, forcefully enough to push all the air from her lungs and she clutched at the table.

"Oh my go-!" Natsu clapped a hand over her mouth, leaning over her and pressing his front against her back as he began to thrust into her.

"Shh, gotta stay quiet, sweetheart," he rasped into her ear. "Wouldn't want the whole guild to hear you screaming out as I fuck you, would you? Unless, of course, you're into that sort of thing," he said with a chuckle. Lucy rolled her eyes, and since she couldn't yell at him, she opened her mouth and bit at the hand covering it.

"Ouch!" he cried out in a whisper. She giggled, and his eyes narrowed at her. "You little minx. Now you're really playing with fire." She hummed against his hand and pushed her hips back against him in hopes of getting him to move faster and harder. And thank the gods, he did.

He re-positioned his hand at her mouth so that he could place a few of his fingers at her lips, and she was quick to take them into her mouth, sucking at them with soft, sensual, beautiful noises that had him rolling his head back, his other hand holding her hip in a bruising grasp as he pound into her.

When he felt her finger pressing against his own to get into her mouth, though, he looked back down at her, even though he couldn't exactly see what she was doing.

Until, of course, she removed her finger and brought it around her back.

Oh, fuck.

This woman was going to be the death of him. But what a glorious death it would be.

He watched, mesmerized, as her little finger pressed against the tight ring of muscle above where they were currently joined. He groaned with her when she slipped it inside.

"Fuck, you really liked it when I did that the last time, didn't you?" he said hoarsely. She only moaned in response around his fingers. His hand moved from her hip and to her hair, twisting her blonde locks around his hand and tugging, making her cry out louder now at the sensation. "Never would I have thought my little Lucy Heartfilia was such a dirty girl. Look at you, you've got all your holes filled now. Fuck, it's so hot."

Her breathing picked up and she was letting out a series of moans and he just knew she was close.

"Don't go over-exerting yourself again, sweetheart. Wouldn't want you passing out again," he purred, clearly priding himself over how much he exhausted her the last time. He heard her growl and she bit down on his fingers. He chuckled, the sound low and sexy. "Such a feisty little thing. You wanna cum?"

She nodded quickly, despite the restriction of the movement caused by him holding her head up by her hair. He leaned forward and pressed his lips against her ear.

"Then do it," he growled before suddenly biting down on her neck. Lucy screamed around his fingers which, luckily, muffled the sound. She clenched around him like a vice as she came, her hips bucking wildly against the table. He removed his fingers from her mouth and grabbed her jaw rather roughly, turning her head to kiss her hard, drinking up her whimpering sounds.

Suddenly, though, she pushed him away, pulling her finger from herself and forcing him out of her. He was too stunned by her actions to comprehend what she was doing until he found himself now halfway sitting on the table and Lucy falling to her knees, wasting no time in taking him deep into her mouth.

"Oh, shit!" he shouted, covering his mouth with his own hand as he watched her. Amusement twinkled in her eyes as she moved, her hand raising to squeeze at his balls, and he knew he was done for, and he knew just what she wanted.

His other hand went to her hair again and pulled her against him until her nose pressed against his pubic bone and he came with a strangled groan, eyes closing tightly and jaw clenching.

Lucy hummed and drank him down, swallowing everything he had to offer.

When she finished, she pulled back and wiped at her mouth with the back of her hand, then grinned up at him. Natsu slumped, barely catching himself before he sunk to the floor, his knees hardly supporting him.

"Holy fucking hell, Luce," he breathed out. "That was… fuck, that was… fuck."

"That good, huh?" she giggled, clearly proud of the mess she turned him into. She tugged his trousers up over his hips and straightened her skirt. She then found her ripped panties and picked them up, 'tsk'ing and shoving them into one of his pockets. "Starting a collection, are you?"

"Says the person who keeps giving them to me," he retorted. She rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, well, I think you can find better use for them than me. They are ripped beyond repair."

"And what use would I have for them?"

"Same as the other pair. They must make for great jack-off material, right?"

"They do, but now that we can fuck whenever we want, I don't think I'll be doing much of that."

"So do you want me to take them back?"

"No!" Natsu shouted childishly, covering his pocket with both hands protectively. Lucy laughed and shook her head. When she saw him starting to look at her with an amused and seductive expression, she raised a brow. "What?"

"You totally know what we have to try after today," he purred.

"What are you talking about?"

"Don't play dumb, Luce. I put my finger in your ass to experiment the first time. Now I know you love it." He wiggled his brows and Lucy's face became bright red and she punched him in the arm.

"S-shut up!"

"Oh, don't go getting all embarrassed now!"

"Just be quiet. We'll figure that out when the time comes. Right now we should get back out there before people realize we're missing. ...Oh, fuck."

"What?" Natsu asked as he saw Lucy's eyes widen. She buried her face in her hands.

"Gajeel and Wendy! What if they heard something? Or smelled something? We're so fucked!"

"No, sweetheart, you're so fucked." She glared at him between her fingers, but he continued. "Shower rooms were installed here in the guild hall, remember?"

"Yeah, because somehow you and some others always end up smelling like absolute shit when coming back from a mission," Lucy muttered.

"And the music is loud enough out there that they would have to really be trying to listen for us to hear us," Natsu continued. "See? We're all good." Lucy seemed to relax, nodding.

"Now, solve the issue of me having no panties."

"Well, I'm not a miracle worker."

"You asshat."

"The best of them all!"
