Hey Dark Gothic Lolita here!

I hope no one has forgotten about me! Don't worry, I haven't forgotten about this story! I keep on thinking that maybe people will want to guess a but more, but I'm always wrong lol. Nobody guessed this letter right and it looks like everyone has given up on trying to guess! Should I scrap the competition?

Well anyway, I've been incognito for a while now, working and trying to pack so I can move out for my first year of university! I'm moving out tomorrow which should be fun (I'm excitedly nervous if that makes sense) and I will be settling into a new place. Oh God, I didn't even think about wi-fi! I'm sure it will be fine, it's a university, not mars.

But here I am, pressing on with this story and charging my way through. Disclaimers as usual!

ENJOY!

I love you in 26 different ways

I is for irresponsible

"Why would Juvia leave you with the kids to go out for a girl's day out? No offence, I thought that she would have left them off with Gajeel, not you!"

Natsu pouted as he held his youngest son in his arms, subtly watching his two other sons running around the guild. Erza, Lucy, Juvia and Levy had all gone off for a girl's day out, feeling like they deserved one after the kind of men they were with. They were more tiring than the children! Lisanna was nursing her two day old baby, so there was no way she could go for a day out or look after the kids for the other girls.

"You sound just like her! They're my kids too, it can't be that hard!"

Gray barked out a laugh as he slapped his knee. Gajeel laughed loudly as well and even Jellal couldn't stop himself from smirking. Natsu glared at them all.

"What's with the laughing?"

"Dude, you're the most irresponsible person ever!"

"Am not!"

"Are too! Salamander, what do you think Igneel is doing right now?"

Natsu's eyes scavenged the guild hall for his eldest son and found that the 6 year old had decided to take it upon himself and try to light one of Wakaba's pipes. Natsu's eyes almost bulged out of his head as he ran with Renji in his arms. The baby laughed while Natsu was panicking.

"IGNEEL, WHAT THE HELL?!"

"Hey daddy! I was just doing what you do! You know, you help mummy cook, and you said helping people is good so I wanted to help old man Wakba light up his pipe! He was gonna let me have some as well!"

Natsu growled at Wakaba who cowered away. He sighed at his son who still couldn't even say the other man's name properly. "I guess if you were helping him, it's alright. Just...just don't let you mother know that that happened."

Both of them shook in fear just thinking about her and he nodded his head. Igneel shrugged as they heard a loud shriek of happiness from the second son, the more boisterous one. He had Natsu in his genes alright. The only person able to control him was Juvia herself. Natsu had no chance in controlling him, even though he was more like him than anything.

Natsu looked up and almost screamed in fear. His second son, age 4 was standing on one of the planks in the ceiling. He saw his dad and giggled. Natsu knew that the boy has possessed the water magic like his mother had done, but he didn't know whether his own water body was to come forth right now.

"Juugo, get down here!"

The little boy held out his arms and Natsu gave out a frustrated sigh. He knew what he was going to do. Sometimes, Natsu would hold him up high and make him fly like an aeroplane. Right now, he knew that Juugo wanted to test it out and see if he could really fly. Natsu doubted that Juugo could use his water body right about now as well.

"Coming daddy!"

"IGNEEL, WAIT HERE, LAKI, HOLD RENJI!"

Natsu gently passed the baby over to Laki who was walking by and he ran to go and catch Juugo's falling form. "I DIDN'T MEAN FOR YOU TO JUMP DOWN! I MEANT FOR YOU TO GET DOWN THE WAY YOU CAME UP!"

The little boy slammed into his father's arms as Natsu sighed in relief. He suddenly smelt something beautiful and deadly and it was within the guild. He turned around and looked at the door to see all the women there, his wife included. He gulped as she stepped forward. She was busy talking that maybe she had literally just missed what happened.

"Did Juvia's boys have a good day with daddy?"

Igneel nodded his head as Natsu set Juugo down. Igneel was smart enough to not talk about what he had gone and done with the pipe and Natsu sighed internally, relief flooding his veins. It seemed like she came in after Juugo fell into his arms which was good enough for him.

"Mummy, I got to be an aeroplane!"

Natsu stiffened as Juvia just ruffled his hair, thinking that he was just talking about the fact that Natsu lifted him up into the air. She looked up at Natsu with a grin.

"Juvia has to give it to Natsu-kun, you looked after the kids really well today. Where's Juvia's baby?"

Laki came over and Juvia gave her a grateful look. She held Renji close to her and rocked him as he giggled up at his mother, almost like he knew something that she didn't. Natsu thanked the Spirit King that the baby couldn't talk yet. Natsu looked at Juugo as he literally looked like someone had given him caffeine...CAFFEINE?!

He looked over at Gajeel who waved a cup of his coffee in the air with a smirk on his face. Just one sip of the stuff would make the kid go crazy! How did they know that? Because Juvia left her coffee on the table and Juugo grabbed it, taking one sip. His face was twisted in disgust at how bitter it was, but then his eyes widened as though he was high on crack. They vowed to never let the kid touch coffee or anything with caffeine in it at ALL.

"Nooooo mummy, I mean I was up there," he pointed up at the ceiling "and tried to be an aeroplane! Daddy caught me and ruined my fun though."

Juvia froze as well as Natsu. Natsu knew that when Juugo was older, he was going to have major problems with this kid in his teenage years. He also knew that there was a potential within Juugo that would make him a drug addict. Addicted to caffeine for sure.

"Natsu-kun let Juugo do what now?!"

She gave him a terrifying smile as her tone was sweet, too sweet. Natsu panicked. Usually, he hated snitches because they got stitches, but right now, it was needed. Gajeel was going to feel Juvia's wrath, not him.

"Juvia KNEW it was a mistake to let Natsu-kun look after the kids, they're LIKE YOU! That means when they're with you, THE WHOLE OF EARTHLAND COULD GET DESTROYED!"

"Juvia, babe, I know it sounds bad, but Juugo insisted that he hung with his uncle Gajeel while I fed Renji and you want to know what your brother did? HE GAVE HIM COFFEE!"

Gajeel's jaw dropped. Did the Salamander REALLY just do that?! Did he really just give him away?! Fuck, Juvia was now glaring at him and his own wife didn't even care! He was done for.

"That was Natsu-kun's first irresponsible mistake, but seeing as it's not really Natsu-kun's fault, look after the boys while Juvia teaches Gajeel-kun a lesson."

Natsu grinned, the whole blame taken off of him. He was a happy man. He was a free man and he couldn't two shits and a flying fuck about Gajeel's fate. It was his fault in the first place. He took Renji from his wife's arms as she stormed over to a scared Gajeel.

"OKAY!"

How was that for you? I don't why it makes me chuckle whenever I read over it to make it okay. Seems like a legit thing to happen with the Dragneels. don't you think? Ah but what do I know, I'm just your little story cow, pumping out stories for you all lol. I hope you guys liked that though! I had quite a bit of trouble with this chapter, not really knowing what to write for it, but BAM, inspiration from God knows where hit me!

Please don't forget to rate or hate, flames or floods! I love you guys and if you love me, leave me a review!
