Lucy POV
Natsu wants me to meet his family, I'm going to kill him. How could I have been so stupid to agree to this? I'm not ready to meet his parents and what happens if he wants to meet mine? My father will be hounding Natsu the entire night.
There is no turning back now, I have to go through with it. Heartfillia's never go back on their promises, and I'm not going to be the first one in our family line to break that trend.
So I got into my car and drove to the address my boyfriend gave me. I was in such a hurry that I forgot to get the hosts of tonight anything. I hope that doesn't ruin their impression of me.
I pull up against the sidewalk, because the driveway is full. There is like four cars in it, and I know that Natsu has motion sickness. He mentioned that his little sister has it too, so why four cars?
I walk to the door slowly, trying to think of how to introduce myself. I could do "Hi, I'm Lucy" or maybe something more formal "Good evening, I'm Lucy Heartfillia".
I finally settle on just plain old "Hello Natsu's Family, I'm Lucy". Then the door opens and that goes out the window.
Standing at the door is one of the biggest men I have ever seen, like extremely ripped. He has blazing red hair and golden eyes. On his face are two scars, one by the corner of his mouth, the other by his eye.
"Can we help you?" he says in a deep, terrifying voice.
"Uh, Hello Lucy, I'm Natsu's family," I say in a panic.
The man just stares at me and then I realize what I actually said, "Oh, what I meant was…"
"Luce," someone from inside the house calls.
Natsu comes up behind the man, "What are you standing outside for, weirdo."
"Maybe I'm trying to keep my composure in front of your family!" I shout back.
"Well so much for that then," he says.
I am about to yell at him again, but decide against it. I don't want his family to think badly of me, especially if one of them is standing at the door.
"Come on, old man," Natsu says, "Luce is waiting to come in."
"I can still take away your desert privileges, and Wendy's making it tonight," the man replies.
Natsu gets a terrified look on his face, "Don't go crazy already," then he gets a smug look on his face, "but with someone of your age then it can't be helped."
"I'm in my forties not on my deathbed!" the man shouts as Natsu runs into the house.
"Um," I say.
The man turns back to me, "I'm sorry about that, my name is Igneel Dragneel, that moron's father."
He steps aside from the doorway, "Come on in, dinner should be ready soon."
The room you enter was designed as a billiards room, however, right now the pool table has a piece of wood on top which looks to be used for ping pong. On the walls are signed sports pictures as well as a few of the family members in school team uniforms.
After that is a family room, and the kitchen is right next to it.
"Natsu, help your brother get the table set!" a woman in front of the stove shouts.
"Why do I have to do it; I'm getting something ready!" he shouts back.
"Your brother did not come all the way back home to do the chores, now come down here and help!"
"Really mom, it's okay," a black haired man in front of the table holding plates says.
Natsu runs downstairs with a blue cat in his arms, the cat has a necklace around its neck. It's the Fairy Tail insignia, the restaurant that me and Natsu met at.
Natsu comes up to me and takes the necklace off the cat, "I thought you might like it."
I take the necklace in my hands, "It's beautiful Natsu, I love it."
I hug him from around the neck, while a chorus of awwws can be heard. I let go once the cat in his arms starts rubbing up against me.
"Ahh!" I shout.
"Looks like Happy likes you," the black haired man says.
"Yeah he does," Natsu agrees, "because Luce is awesome."
I start walking to the kitchen with Natsu, "Alright."
The woman wipes her hands on a towel before walking over to us. She is extremely beautiful for someone of her age, I would've never thought she was in her forties if Igneel didn't mention it.
She has long pink hair, about a shade darker than Natsu's, that goes down to the middle of her back. Her eyes are a bright red, but not in an intimating way. She has to be about a foot shorter than Igneel, but the height difference makes her and her husband a cuter couple.
"Hello, I'm Grandine, Natsu mother," she says smiling, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Natsu talks a lot about you."
"It's nice to meet you too, Ms. Dragneel," I say.
"Oh, Grandine is fine, we aren't too big on formalities in this family."
"Okay," I say.
"I hope you're not a vegetarian because I made chicken," Grandine says.
I take in the amazing scent that is filling the kitchen, "Oh no, that sounds delicious."
"Good," she says, sounding relived as if this was about her getting approved by me.
The black haired boy speaks up, "Hi, I'm Zeref, Natsu's older brother."
He held out he's hand to me, which I shake in return, "Lucy."
He goes back to setting the table, after pulling out a chair for me.
"Oh, thanks," I say.
"No problem."
"Come on bro, don't try to steal my girlfriend," Natsu complains.
"I wouldn't do that, plus, I have a girlfriend of my own," Zeref retorts.
"I won't believe it til I see it," Natsu proclaims, "family rules, remember."
That explains why Natsu was so set on me meeting his family, they weren't going to believe he had a girlfriend until they met me. His family is definitely interesting I can say that.
The door opens from the other room, "I'm home."
A white cat comes running downstairs to meet a blue haired girl coming in the family room.
"Hi Charle, I missed you too," she says.
"How was Chelia's house?" Grandine asks.
"It was great mama, totally going to ace tomorrows test," the girl replies.
The girl places her book bag on couch before coming to meet the rest of the family in the kitchen.
"Bring that bag up after dinner," Igneel says.
"Yeah, no problem," she says.
She turns to face me and Natsu, "So this is your girlfriend?"
"Yep, this is Luce," Natsu says with his signature grin.
The girl has her mom's height, and big, chocolate brown eyes. She isn't that big around her chest area, but is still very adorable.
"It's nice to meet you," I say.
"You too, I'm Wendy."
Grandine is taking a pan out of the oven, and placing it on the stove, "Alright dinner's ready."
Everyone goes and takes their seat at the table as Grandine starts to bring out the food. It all so good. Mashed potatoes, Caesar salad, and a gorgeous chicken. Looking at it makes my mouth water.
I pick up my plate to start dishing out my food, but Grandine takes it from me first, "I'll handle dear."
When she has gotten a piece of chicken and decent portions of the sides Grandine returns my plate to me. The entire Dragneel family looks at me as a cut a piece of the chicken, it is making all of this very uncomfortable.
I eat the piece I cut off, "Oh my," I say looking up from my plate, "this is the best thing I have ever tasted."
"Told you you'd like it," Natsu says, shoving some of the mashed potatoes in his mouth.
The entire family seems to hold healthy appetites, and a good amount of insults that they can throw at each other.
"Tell us more about your imaginary girlfriend, bro. She's probably not as good as mine."
"She's real!"
"Prove it dark lord."
"I will pyro."
"Boys!"
"Sorry mom."
"How's Uncle Meta doing?" Zeref asks
"Great, and is very excited to see you all at his birthday party next month," Grandine replies.
"Metalface isn't gonna be there is he?" Natsu asks in a disgusted tone.
"He's our cousin," Wendy reminds Natsu.
"So what?"
"And Uncle Meta's son, of course he's going to be there."
"I still don't want to put up with his stupid face."
"Well I have to deal with his stupid father," Igneel says.
"Igneel, that's my cousin," Grandine says.
"I know," Igneel tells her, "but he can be annoying as all hell when he wants to be."
"You two better not spend that entire party fighting," Grandine casts her husband a glare.
"Yes dear," he says in surrender.
I smile, they are so close. I hope that me and my father can be like that again. It took a while, but we acting like a loving father and daughter again. He even went on a speech about how I shouldn't be allowed to date until I'm fifty.
I try to help after dinner, but the Dragneels insist that I relax. I watch them from my seat at the table as they clear dishes and put leftover food in the fridge. After that's all done, Wendy comes and brings out a beautiful cheesecake.
"It's been chilling all day," she tells everyone, "so it should be ready now."
Her mother gets up to help her cut the cake into equal portions for everyone. However, I do notice that she gave her husband a bigger piece than everyone else. The weird ways that couples will show their love for each other.
The desert was even better than the main course, not too sweet or creamy, but it still found a way to melt on your tongue. I even tasted a few pieces of snickers bars.
"Hey, is there snickers in this?" I ask.
"Yeah," Wendy says, "Is that a problem? I'm sorry if you allergic."
"Oh no," I reassure, "I just wanted to make sure, because I could taste them and…."
Zeref lets out a little laugh, "How did someone so sweet end up for you?" he asks pointing at his brother.
"Hey!" Natsu says, "At least I can prove my girlfriend's real."
"Here we go again," Igneel says.
"She is real, and I'll prove it by bringing her over," Zeref says very determined, "She has already agreed to go to Uncle Meta's party with me."
"Then I'll believe you when she shows up."
"She will, I'll bring her for movie night next week."
"Zeref, don't do that," his mom says, "she should be able to come her and enjoy more than just pizza and popcorn, as well as not have to be careful with which bowl has popcorn covered in hot sauce."
She says the last part looking at her husband and Natsu. I knew that my boyfriend had a weird obsession with spicy foods, but now I know where he gets it from.
"She love it mom," Zeref says, "Plus, we can't have you cooking big meals like this all the time."
"It wouldn't hurt G, plus it's a movie so this one will be quiet," Igneel says, pointing his fork at Natsu.
"Hey!" Natsu shouts at his father.
"Oh please, he'll find a way to talk at some point," Grandine says, as if the person they were talking about wasn't sitting next to them.
"I'm right here!" Natsu shouts again.
"You're right, but it wouldn't hurt to try, maybe the girl likes to talk through movies as well," Igneel suggests, laughing at his son's efforts to get his attention.
Natsu slumps down in his chair, crossing his arms and putting on a little scowl. It was more a pout, but either way the rest of us at the table laughed.
It was getting a little late, so I decided it was time for me to leave, I'm meeting with my editor early in the morning tomorrow and I want to get a little sleep in beforehand. The Dragneels seemed sad that I had to go, I think they were planning on setting up a ping pong tournament.
Natsu walks me over to the door, "So, what did you think of them?"
"Your family was amazing Natsu, it must have been fun to grow up with them," I say.
"I guess," he says, "Hey, do you maybe want to go to the party they were talking about with me? The whole family is going and some close friends, it's more of a high school reunion than a birthday party."
I laugh, "I would love to, if the rest of your family is anything like this, then I'm sure I'll have a great time."
"Hell yeah you will," Natsu says, getting excited, "I'm fired up now."
"Even if you have to see your stupid face cousin?"
"More like second cousin, but yeah, even if I have to see him."
He puts his hands on my waist and draws me closer. I wrap my arms around his neck. He leans in, then I finish it by pressing my lips to his. I never wanted it to end, but I never do.
We part after what seems like a lifetime, "Goodnight Natsu."
"Goodnight Luce."
The best kissing scene that you all are probable going to get. So the review thing was fixed, so just ignore the second chapter. Also tell me if you all want to see the movie night with Zeref's girlfriend (wonder who it could be) or if I should maybe try Gruvia or even StingYu. Those three pairing are going to be the next big ones, so which ever one you want first I'll do.
I also made a connection between this chapter and the last one, if you couldn't tell Grandine and Metalicana are cousins. G is Grandine's nickname, while Meta is Metalicana's.
xxrisxx: I'm glad you did, and yes Metalicana would love that. I my crazy mind, he secretly likes children and always wanted a family which is why he got Gajeel. Thank you.
ToastedWeirdBrain: I'm going to be honest, I don't know what that means, but thanks (maybe).
