Marina-(49) No no! You misunderstand... Draco is merely where their magic combines so it's like the perfect rep for the two of them to Lucy :) Btw... POINT TO YOU!
Marina-(50) LOL TY! I needed one after writing it but I think it was more cause of the stress of doing it correctly LMFAO
rls- LOL I had to add some drama! LMFAO But what was 50 not as hot as 48? LMFAO
Link- LMFAO YOU FELL! AGAIN!
Riven- Yur slippin!
Asuna- TYVM! I'm so glad I got you blushing AGAIN! HAHHAHAHAH But it's so is the truth!
Frost-(49) LOL TYVM!
abc-TYVM! I've always had a love affair for dragons and constellations and the zodiac so really it was something that just kindda made pure sense to me... Draco really is the embodiment of their unity... Besides I can see it being an actual thing sometime in the FT plot line... Maybe not my use of Draco but Draco himself. He's a prominent one and has never been mentioned but ones like Lyra and such are so why not!? ;) He is isn't he though!?
Naomi- LOL YW! And TY for enjoying it!
leo- TYVM! I really happy I was able to portray that because it while I wanted the saucy love it couldn't just happen... I mean nothing just happens with them and then isn't turned into a big deal... LOL
queen-(49) TY! Yes I LOVE dragons as well as constellations so FT in general is so up my alley!
Frost-(50) LMFAO Go find some A/C to cool down... Maybe a tall glass of ice water! HAHAHHAHHA
queen-(51) ;) But of course!
Frost-(51) No end just yet... Don't you READ my AN? Jeez... There are 55 total chapters... Dork! And no there will be no sequel to this story there will be no continuation... Once the last chap is up that's it it's finished! HOWEVER Chappy 54 is the end of the story BUT 55 is the Epilogue... So...
rxp-(49) Wow TY! So am I... I mean Mashima has an excellent understanding of the constellations and their cycles so it's strange that that one key hasn't been mentioned ever and I really kindda hope it finds a place at some part of the actual story line. I have so many theories and ideas that if I was ever lucky as hell and could get a hold of him my god what I wouldn't give to bounce them off him! Lucy is one of the few characters that has never once doubted the existence of dragons... Shock some one would look for one in a town... YES... that some one could be raised by one... DEFF! BUT she didn't doubt it's possibility... In the Manga Happy is more shocked she doesn't doubt it when he tells her about it when Natsu is goin crazed on Bora and them... It leads me to believe that she has some tie to them in some way... Be it Draco or ? I mean her mother did die the same time the Dragons vanish... I'd have to look in the manga to see if the date is clear or not but it is deff July of 777... There is some HUGE thing building to that I think and if not I'm gonna be kicking Mashima's ass LMFAO
rxp-(50) I know what you mean... But I read just that one part so many times and while it was justified it still came off that way at the same time... His logic is his logic after all and it just fit... She was too lackluster to be able to say "Hey gimme some heads up" And I can't see him being the idiot some think only because he is in Fairy Tail and honestly 98% of those men are PERVS I can't think he didn't over hear SOMETHING over the years... But TY yur the first to say something on that for me and I was gettin worried over it since no one has said anything about it... I mean ppl have been lovin the chap but nothing's been said to release my inner drama LOL
kimi- Glad you made it back! And TY TY TY! So far yur the first to tell me to weather or not to post the rest so... We'll see what you get :P But yes I'm gonna take a break from writing then start on some new things ;)
rxp-(51) See I think thanks to the extra put in by the anime Lissianna has gotten the clingy depiction. Since her return the she's tackled Natsu when first back in Earthland but after that there's nothing... During the Exam she basically tells Lucy to never leave him and then her only interaction with the whole group is when her and Elfman come in with snacks... Really she sticks with her bro and Laxus' crew all the time... Yeh she was nice and helped Natsu with Happy but she was never on a team with them or anything... Even from the beginning when Happy explains the teams thing to Lucy his lil diagram shows Natsu and and him all alone... Until Lucy they were loners LOL If you remember way at the beginning of this story Lissiana was one of the ppl Lucy wanted to talk to about being pissed at Natsu... I can't see her character being anything but the supportive friend... and in coming chaps I've showed her as such :)
G.R.T.- (50) TY TY TYVM! Just WOW and TY!
G.R.T.- (51) BAHHAHAHA There it is!
Exxcal-(49) LMFAO You are seriously gonna get caught one of these days! But I'm glad I was able to make Monday-no-fun-day so much better for you!
Celt-(49) TY! Yur givin me warm fuzzies!:)
Celt-(50) LMFAO Yeh real coherent words kindda have no place... I feel the same. Obviously otherwise I would have written something that was full of quotes. I think some books romanticize it a lil too much by giving all that loving shmuck in there... Blah...
Ariadne-(50) LMFAO Well yes it is but I'm sure you can see my concern LOL But TY!
Celt-(51) ROFL No a carnival would be BAD! He'd barf on her! LMFAO But yeh she would need them... Look how she had been raised it only seems right.
Exxcal-(50) TY TY TY TY! Bet you wish you didn't read it in class don't you? ;) Who took a bathroom break to get some air? Hmmmm I wonder LMFAO
Panda- 1. It's ok! I understand! Like I said there isn't any real content in them it's purely to ermmm satisfy some cravings? LOL 2. Someday you'll get curious and when you do... That lemon bar of delight will be waiting! MMMUUUAHAHAHAH 7. YEY! Glad you liked that! 15. Yes I fear your pitchfork way to much to be placed on the hit list again! 27. Duely noted ;) 48416321. LMFAO I'm a woman... an old married woman (*sigh8 I'm 30)... with a 19 month old girl of my own... LMFAO You should have read my bio page silly! (Btw I think I can't count ;) )
Ariadne- (51) LMFAO Yes yes he can!
Souring- LOL TY! Also you so contradicted yurself LMFAO You tell me you don't usually go to non completes but then basically say I should wait LOL You dork you! Btw I haven't watched that one yet but hubby has been following it and watching each week as it came out... I think there are only 13 or 14 out atm?
Groves-(49) LMFAO I love you too! I thought of you when I highlighted that chapter to put it in here and it was something like 800 words... SO Yes I had to call you out because I was pretty sure you would have UGGGHHHH me again :P Also I get the amount yur talking about... It really is like that last bit of rich goodness that you can't waste but omg yur gonna die if you eat it LOL BTW TY TY TY! While fangs are incredibly smexy being bitten is NOT on everyone's list of "to do" LMFAO and they live in a world filled with magic so there had to be a better way!
Groves-(50) Your worry is well founded and funny enough I kindda get that same feeling when I read lemons and then there's nothing there about it... SO it is something that will be touched on in this chappy... It always amazes me how you guys ask or bring up things that I already put in the story because I was always days ahead of the chaps I was posting LMFAO
Exxcal-(51) LOL TY!
Dancer- LMFAO yes it's an odd word most don't understand LOL
.
She had been silent so long he began to worry over her thoughts until she nestled into him and admitted his correctness on the subject. Fully relaxing himself he was almost pulled into a peaceful nap. Her presence soothed him in ways he'd never be able to explain but he didn't care either. That was until her words wormed their way into his head. He had somewhat forgotten about still having to convince her to move in. Excitement grew as he sat up fully causing the water to splash about. "Seriously Lucy? You're not messing with me right?"
Lucy giggled at his enthusiasm. It didn't take much to make him happy but simple was good. "Promise I'm not teasing!"
Unable to express his joy any other way he pulled her forward for a kiss. It had started out sweet and thankful but turned passionate quickly. But then Lucy did something and it made him chuckle. Pulling away he whispered, "You are such a weirdo."
Confused she looked at him like he grew a second head. "What?"
He started laughing at the fact she didn't even know about her own weird fetish. Flicking his tongue over one of his fangs he watched in amusement as she intently stared at the motion. "See weirdo!"
Growing irritated with being laughed at for some unknown reason she demanded, "See what? What is so funny?" Pulling away from him she forgot about her nakedness and crossed her arms under her chest pouting.
Briefly his eyes wandered to her chest then back to her eyes. Grinning like a mad man he pulled her back over and leaned into her ear. "You have a thing for my fangs," he whispered accentuating the statement by nipping at her earlobe.
Lucy squeaked in surprised embarrassment. Suppressing the shudder that wanted to run through her at his action she stuttered out, "D-do n-n-not!" while slapping his chest and trying to push him away.
Her utter denial and obvious embarrassment at being caught was beyond hilarious to him. Keeping her in place he continued to laugh as she kept trying to push away from him and slap at him. Eventually his laughter subsided at the sight of her pouting cutely and grumbling to herself. "Awww come on Lucy. I was just teasing you!" Mischief rose in him as he once again leaned down and began nibbling on her shoulder before he purred out, "Besides I kind of like it."
Absolutely embarrassed beyond the point of no return she pushed him away, "GAAA! Stop acting like a baka!"
Rolling his eyes he once more dragged her to him and relaxed. "Whatever it's true and you know it."
"Shut up!" she huffed hiding her face in his chest. She couldn't help but chuckle with him though. In a terrible sense it was funny that he figured out something she didn't really know anything about until today. She should have guessed it since the sight of his big goofy grin always did funny things to her. Pushing the thought aside she opened her eyes only to catch sight of the mark on his chest. Lightly tracing it her earlier thoughts sprang forth. "Natsu?" when he grunted in way of continuance she asked, "What does this mean?"
Looking down at the mark and then to here he rose a brow in confusion. "I told you already it's a mate mark."
"I know that but what does it mean?"
"Uhh… it's a symbol of the two of us?"
Growing frustrated with him once more she huffed, "I know that too! GAA! What I'm asking is now that we have them what all does that mean? Like how long will they be there? What do they do to us? That sort."
"OH!" he exclaimed finally understanding. However he was at a loss of words to fully explain. "Well… Uhh… They never go away I think. I mean maybe when one of us dies or something maybe, but I'm pretty sure it's forever. And for us I don't think they do much besides make it so our magics can't hurt us. I'm not really sure though. Igneel kind of explained it to me but he said it was pointless to tell me everything."
"Of course…" Lucy groaned. Leave it to one of those over grown lizards to leave something important out just because they thought it wasn't necessary. That thought caused her to feel incredibly guilty. Not all dragons were like the ones she had faced. Natsu had found one that helped him during that battle after all. Besides she was thinking about Igneel and if he had raised Natsu he couldn't be anything like those other bastard dragons. Shaking the thoughts from her mind she asked, "Did he ever tell you why you do it?"
"YUP! It's to make sure you stay together forever! So nothing separates you and your mate. And it shows just who you belong with so that no other dragon will try to take you away."
"Awfully possessive isn't it? I'm not some piece of property that can be owned!" that was one of the main reasons she had ran away from the arranged marriages her former life offered.
"Eh? I know that! But it's kind of like wedding rings for dragons. I told you mates are like their version of husbands and wives."
"Oh, ok then." She stated at his declaration of knowledge. Slowly what he said seeped in though and caused panic. "W-wed-wedding r-r-rings?" He nodded vigorously. The action didn't sooth her in the least. "I'm not ready to be married!"
Her outburst shook him a bit. To part of him they were as good as married already. He thought she understood that. All that was left was the human end of it but that was petty to him. He did realize it was something she would want though and he wasn't opposed to the idea in the least. She'd take his name after all and that was like the getting the extra helping of fire pasta at the end of the day. But if she didn't want that and it was too late… He felt like his heart was breaking a bit. "But Luce I thought…"
Hearing and seeing his pain she quickly realized what her outburst sounded like. "Natsu," she cooed drawing his downcast eyes to her. Cupping his cheeks she smiled, "I'm not ready yet. It doesn't mean no. It's just that to me marriage means settling down and I have far too many places and adventure I want to go on before I stop to raise a family." Smiling warmly she added, "Besides you still have to become S-Class and find Igneel before we can start a family."
While her words made sense to him something was off. "Why did you agree then?"
Lucy let her hands drop and frowned a bit. "I honestly don't know. I don't regret it but I don't know. It just… It felt like the right decision. Do you know what I mean?"
He smiled and nodded, "Hell yes I do!" he said scooping her up into a hug and nuzzling the side of her head. So their wedding would have to wait he could live with that so long as she didn't regret her decision about him. She was right anyway. There were still lots of things they both wanted to accomplish and they would either have to be put on hold or forever forgotten if a child was added into the mix.
Fear crept into his spine at the thought. He was a dead man. "Uhh Luce?" he chuckled nervously as he pulled away from her. Seeing her inquisitive look he scratched the back of his head. "If you didn't want kids... Then ummm… Isn't it a little late for that?"
She was utterly confused at that until she realized just what he was getting at. Blushing at the remembrance she laughed. Bless his simple mind at times. "Natsu I can't have kids."
"Ever?" he asked astonished and slightly heartbroken.
Continuing to laugh she said, "No baka I can have them just not right now! I take a potion every month and it makes it so I can't have them unless I stop taking the potion. It's a precaution all female wizards take."
"Oh… OH! OH!" full understanding finally dawning on him. Once again his mind went to other things at that implication. If they had no worries then there was no reason to prolong the next time they got to have some fun. Pulling her flush against his back he started nibbling on her neck and let his hands wonder. "So… if that's the case…."
Lucy moaned mentally damning herself. This man would be the death of her someday. It would be a sweet passionate death but death none the less. His mouth had just began making its way to her own as his hand inched it way to her breast when a shout pulled them to reality and away from one another.
"NATSUUUUUU LUCYYYYYYY I'M BACK!"
Both of them groaned at the interruption but let it slide. "Back here buddy!" Natsu yelled.
"Natsu!" Lucy hissed slapping him. "Don't call him in here we're naked!"
Natsu blinked bewildered. "So? He's Happy. He's a cat Lucy."
"AYE SIR!"
"KAAAAA! Don't sneak up like that!" Lucy screeched and ducked into the water trying to preserve some form of modesty.
Both Natsu and Happy laughed at her outburst. "Aye you are weird Lucy!"
"I'm not weird you shitty cat!" she proclaimed glaring. "What do you want anyway?"
"Aye! Mira said that since you're staying here I needed to go to your old apartment and get your stuff for a bath!" snickering behind his paws he continued, "But I see you took one anywayyyyyy!"
"SHUT UP! It's his fault he came in here when I was already in the tub!"
"Yeh but I had to chase you because you ran off!"
"Only because I was scared and confused!"
"Well all the more reason to follow you!"
"Guys I'm hungry!" Happy butted in.
Huffing she held out her hand, "Just give me my bath stuff and you two get out so I can bathe properly."
"Oi! Why do I got to leave?"
Turning her glare to Natsu she said, "You are too distracting." Seeing his cocky grin make its way on his face, her own face felt like exploding at her admittance. "Just get out and let me finish so I can cook something for all of us!"
"AYE!" Happy said handing her the bag and heading to the kitchen to wait.
"YOOSH!" Natsu cheered following Happy out totally disregarding the fact he was naked and soaking wet.
"I'm NOT moping!" Lucy yelled red faced to his retreating back. "Idiots," she mumbled to herself enjoying the view and blushing wildly at the sight of the scratch marks.
MMMM Fangs... LMFAO! Oh Happy you moment killing devil! So don't be mad at me cause I didn't really tell you what all it means to be mates... I have so many ideas in my head but none of them make sense and they all do at the same time... And while I know I would wonder the same thing I also feel like anything Igneel didn't know much about Natsu wouldn't retain... The unknow unknown (As Remmy would say Ahhh I love Boondocks!) is just that... Unknown... And if a dragon isn't likely to find a mate as Igneel had said then how in the world would they know wtf would happen with Dragon Slayers?
Anyway... I decided that I'm gonna make my adorable lil baby girl (who is 19 months old) into Charla for Halloween! I might as well dress her in what I want before she gets old enough to tell me she wants to be something lame ass... Last year I made her a Shock (the lil witch trick-or-treater in Nightmare Before Christmas) and this year I'm gonna do Charla from FT... Yes I said make... I actually hand crafted her costume with mask and all! That's right I'm a woman of many talents LMFAO! Just thought I'd share that!
So... Since there wasn't the outright demand from all of you to post the whole story now and give it up or I will be shanked... Ok one of you did demand but that was it... I'm gonna play this out and just keep up to once a day... I like talking with you guys and giving responses so yur stuck with me :P
LET THE COUNT DOWN BEGIN!
Keep readin and reviewin!
