It was a day since Natsu woke up in the hospital. Last night was spent alone, the other mages had figured he had wanted alone time, and although that was true, he felt like there was something missing from that evening.
Natsu had to leave the hospital, as he sustained no injuries and they didn't know if someone would come in with an emergency that needed that specific room. Porlyusica said that she would try to find a place that would suit the dragon's volume.
A while after Natsu's breakfast, which consisted of a big platter of raw fish, Porlyusica entered the room with some papers in hand. Natsu, who's head was resting comfortably on the end of the bed, looked at Porlyusica curiously.
"Well... I found a place, although it isn't the most centrally located..." She said. "It's an old barn off of the side of Magnolia, it's nice and roomy so if you continue growing."
Natsu nodded. He wasn't really bothered by this, he lived in a pretty old house already.
"It's decided, then. Come on." Porlyusica waved towards the door. "I'll show you there, but from then you are out of my care. Feel free to come back if you need anything, though." She mumbled something under her breath.
Natsu got up before she started heading out the door. He had almost gotten used to walking and getting up.
In Magnolia, many people shot confused looks at the dragon. The cobbled streets that Natsu was used to now felt completely foreign.
When they got there, Happy and Lucy were waiting for them. They were leaning on the sides of the wooden barn, and the barn door was open already.
"Hey Natsu..." Lucy mumbled with a gloomy expression on her face.
Natsu nodded to her, then headed inside the barn. As he took his first step he could hear mice scurrying into the various hay piles strewn around the wooden floor. It was warm and had a nice smell to it, and it WAS very roomy. The ceiling was high and had a loft at the top.
Natsu liked the barn as a house, but he wished he could share it with someone unknown, for unknown reasons. That was his only complaint.
Hey guys, sorry for the short chapter, but YAY! SUMMER! I will try to write more, but that, sadly, is not a promise. Suicune out!
