Hiya guys! Here's a new chapter! It's a bit later than most of my updates, I know but not by much! I know I said I would make this one longer but I accidentally made it way too long and had to split it in two. And unfortunately I have no time to upload and edit both. I debated on holding this one and and uploading both together on Wednesday but I've decided to just upload this one and hopefully upload the next right after work for you guys! Anyways, on to the story!
(Lucy POV)
"Why did I think this was a good idea?" Lucy huffed as she looked down into her lap and smoothed out the short red dress in annoyance.
Crossing her right leg over her left, she sat on one of the various expensive white leather sofas. The room littered with red solo cups and liquor bottles, loud dance music shaking the foundation of her home, the dark room barley light by various colorful flashing lights, transforming her usual elegant home into what seemed like a night club. Her eye twitched as a couple repeatedly bumped into her as they made out on the couch right next to her. She stood up and made her way to the kitchen, her red heels hitting the white polished tiles loudly as she walked. She had enough of watching these people bump and grind in her living room.
Today was Lucy's 18th birthday. Her father was out of town and had agreed to let her have a small get together and even agreed to let the servants take the day off, part of her request, he couldn't celebrate with her and so he would agree to anything she asked like every year. Of course he never agreed to a full blown house party, but she had no intentions of letting him know.
Her plan was just to have the girls and some of the guys come over for a small gathering, then of course the guys would leave and the girls would sleep over. But once her friend Cana Alberona was informed of the lack of adult supervision, the brunette let everyone know. And of course wherever Cana goes, alcohol follows. So here she was, her house full of drunk high school and college students.
She would be lying if she said she hadn't had a drop of alcohol, but that wasn't the problem. It wasn't the party that was pissing her off, it was Natsu. Even though it was her birthday that jackass hadn't spent anytime with her! "I just wanted a hug is all!" She yelled as she watched her drunk boyfriend arguing with Gray Fullbuster who of course had a drunk Juvia grabbing onto his bare torso in tears, most likely pleading with him put his clothes back on. She climbed onto one of the kitchen tops and sat down, grabbing another cup and taking a small sip from it.
"That's not how you drink, chug it!" Cana yelled as she grabbed a bottle and began to chug. She looked over at her boyfriend Bacchus as he followed suit, grabbing another bottle from the counter. A smirk on his face as they began their full on drinking contest that would most likely end up with one or both passed out on my kitchen floor. I rolled my eyes as Cana spilled alcohol and removed her shirt to clean up the mess as she continued drinking, leaving her only in a black bra and white shorts. Bacchus wore a plain purple shirt and brown loose fitting pants. Looks like they came prepared for a long drinking contest.
"Not you too, Levy-chan!" I whined as a drunk Levy stumbled into the kitchen and of course as always as of recently, accompanied by Gajeel, his arm flung over her shoulder. Her face was flush from alcohol consumption, she wore a small pink dress and white heels that gave her at least two inches of height. I suggested them but now I regretted it as she swayed on her feet, the only thing keeping her up being Gajeel she she gripped his gray t-shirt for balance.
"Get that ugly look off your face, blondie! It's your party. Go have fun!" Gajeel slurred as he shoved his phone into the back pocket of his black jeans.
"Yeah! Have fun! Go for it Lu!" Levy pumped her fist in the air with excitement. Gajeel nodded in agreement as grabbed another cup and chugged half of the alcohol down. He then pressed the cup to Levy's lips and tipped the cup for her to finish the rest.
"Oh that's no fair! You only left me a little bit!" She whined before grabbing another cup. He took it from her hands before rolling his eyes and chugged that one completely as she pouted.
"You're tiny shrimp, I'm not dragging your ass home after this, what I gave you was enough. " I rolled my eyes as I hopped off the kitchen top. How those two weren't together yet seemed to be a mystery. Everyone knew they liked each other, hell they knew they liked each other.
"You guys are weird, just screw already!" Cana yelled as she grabbed another bottle for herself. I grabbed the bottle from her hands and took a sip . she whined as I felt the cold liquid warming up my insides giving me bit of confidence. Of course I'd feel all needy now!
"I've had enough of this." I mumbled as I returned to the living room. I slowly made my way through the crowded mess of sweaty, dancing students before finally spotting a mop of pink hair in the crowd. I grabbed a handful of hair and pulled until we were out of the crowd.
"Ouch ouch! Luce! What the hell!" Natsu yelled over the loud music.
"Natsu don't yell at me." I whispered, my cheeks red from embarrassment His eyes widened in fear as my vision became blurry as tear formed.
"Oh no no! Please don't cry Lucy please!" His arms flailed around him as he spoke frantically.
"I just wanted to spend some time with you." I sniffled as I wiped at my eyes. I watched as he slowly composed himself, his features twisting into a frown. He delicately grabbed my wrist and began to lead me towards the stairs.
"Yay! Natsu! Make Lu-chan happy again!" I heard Levy yell as we past by the kitchen.
I yelped as he suddenly tugged me into my room. "Happy birthday Luce!" He yelled as he turned on the light. I smiled as I watched him dig through the pockets of his gray sweatpants before retrieving a piece of paper.
"My present is a piece of paper?" I asked as Natsu rocked back and forth on his heels.
"Read it." He demanded as he sat on the edge of my bed. My eyes widened as I read the paper.
"Oh my Mavis, Natsu no!" I flung my arms around him as I squealed in excitement.
"You got me a modeling gig with Mirajane!" He chuckled as he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me to him, straddling him as he moved to the middle of the bed, both my knees on either side of him. A big smile plastered on my face as I lightly pecked his lips. I blushed as he cupped my cheek and brought his lips to kiss my forehead and then my lips. Quick chastised kisses quickly becoming heated, my red dress now bunched up in his fists over my waist. My hands roamed over his bare stomach. It seemed he had lost his shirt during his fight with Gray. Reluctantly I broke the kiss, panting as I pressed my forehead to his before shaking my head.
"Not now stupid, there's a party." I spoke breathlessly, my chest rose and fell as I attempted to regain some much needed air.
"Awwwh, but no one will notice!" He whined rubbing soft soothing circles over my bare hipbones, as he buried his head in my cleavage. I rolled my eyes as I climbed off of him and fixed my dress back in place.
"Come on let's go back." I grabbed his arm and tugged. He rolled his eyes as he tugged back. Surprised I stumbled backwards back into his lap. My back crashing into his chest as he chuckled.
"You're not even drunk Luce, you're just clumsy." I rolled my eyes before softly elbowing him in the stomach.
"You aren't going anywhere." He whispered into my ear before softly kissing it. My eyes rolled back, a breathless moan escaping my parted lips as he sucked the soft pink earlobe between his lips. He chuckled as I melted into his touch.
Well this is most likely the most graphic it's going to get. I'm still debating whether or not I want to try to add a lemon. But honestly to do that, I'll have to read some just for reference and such. Well the next chapter will shift back to GaLe in Gajeel's POV. I'm thinking that will be the chapter to really get this story going. Also I probably won't upload in a week or two since I'll just be going through the chapters and editing them again. Anyways guys, I hope you have a good day!
