WHEN WE WERE KIDS

CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

Natsu kept some distance between us as we walked, two meters or so, until he arrived at another clearing, but this one was different. It was an arc, and in front of me, was a cliff, and the moon.

"Why is it so big?" He asked.

"It's a harvest moon, wow..." I sighed. He sat on the edge of the cliff, legs dangling over the edge, I went and sat next to him.

"Natsu, here." I said, and gave him a little package wrapped in red paper.

"Thanks, what is it?" He said.

"Open." I answered. He did, and found the present.

"What is it?"

"It's a special type of Lacrima pod. You see the dial on the side? It has a setting for each emotion or action, for example, if you put in 'sad' it would give you sad music" I said. He put the buds in, and switched it on, turning the dial.

"Nice..." he said, closing his eyes. I smiled.

It was the end of the month. I had to tell him. I was about to, when-

"Lucy?" He said, taking the ear pieces out.

"Yeah?"

"Have you opened your present?"

"No, you told me to wait till no one was around."

"Good point." He said.

"Why did you ask me to come here?"

"I need to tell you something."

"Okay...but first-"

"It's about our deal. I'll tell you who she is, but no reaction time, you have to tell me who yours is."

"Wow, you're so serious, fine."

"Okay."

"Okay" Heart, please calm down.

"I'm going to tell you."

"You're going to tell me." How did the moon cast such a beautiful silver light over him, he looked amazing, god like, in fact.

"Stop copying me."

"Fine, tell me." I said.

"My crush, that word is stupid. The girl I love is called Lucy Heartfilia, and she is amazing. She has had an affect on me since the moment I met her, and yes, the second time, not the unfortunate first."

He said my name. He said my name. He SAID my name! That did mean that he loved me? And that meant that I loved him, which meant.

"Lucy! Tell me who your's is before I die of friggin' embarassment!" He said.

"Um, yes. Right. Sorry. Yes, crushes, um, mine is a certan incredible person who couldn't be better in anyway called Natsu Dragneel, and yes, so um...yes." I stuttered. The look on his face went from surprise, to confusion, then to hapiness.

"Lucy?"

"Natsu."

"I love you." He said. Those words made the beautifull moon seem pointless and riduculous compared to the sound of them.

"I love you" I said back. He closed his eyes.

"I could die happy right now." He said.

"No you couldn't." I said back.

"Why?"

"Because I really really want to kiss you right now." I said. He looked at me, his lips parted slightly in the frankness of my words.

"That's fine by me." He said, and in one sudden movement, pulled me close to him, kissing me, lips closed, and warm, and thin, and exsquisite. I remembered the truth or dare game, when my theory about kissing was pressing lips, well it wasn't. It was moving them, making your partner happy, and when both tried, the feeling was pure enjoyement. He parted his lips, guiding mine with him. It came naturally, the tongues. It was like we melted into each other, savouring one another. Our heads were tilted, and our hands moved along each others bodies, his was so warm, and whenever I found some of his skin, it was so soft. Whenever our lips broke apart slightly, we would gasp. I could feel his breathing becoming ragged, just like mine. We broke apart, and he bit on my lower lip as we did. We just sat there, gasping, and holding each other, his eyes were wide, like he was surprised. His lips were glistening, wet, and his cheeks were flustered. I felt like I looked like that to, except probably more red.

"Wow." He finally said.

"Indeed." I said back.

"Have you done that before?"

"I ws about to ask you the same thing, because that was the most amazing thing I have ever excperienced."

"No"

"Neither have I."

"I think we should kiss more." He said.

"Another thing I agree on." I said, before we kissed, quickly, almost violently. Nothing around us mattered, I tangled my fingers in his hair, and he held my waist. I heard footsteps coming from the forest, but they were so insignificant, we just kept kissing.

"What's up?" Cana's voice said, we didn't reply. She sat down next to me.

"That looks like fun. You two really do look like good kissers. Are tongues involved yet?" She said, before leamimg closer towards us. "Yes, they are." We finaly stopped.

"What?" Natsu said, when he saw Cana. He didn't let go of me.

"Nothing, just you two seem to have been testing each others tonsiles. Mind explaining?"

"Yes, I'm busy." He said, and kissed me again.

"Jeez, I was only asking..." she said. This time, I pulled away.

"Practicing for the play." I quickly said, before kissing him again.

"Yeah right." She said. Natsu tore away.

"Were just kissing, do you have a problem?" He said, and kissed me again.

"Kind of."

"What is it?" I said, before going back.

"Were all waiting for you."

"Why?" Natsu asked.

"It's your birthday, right? We've missed two vital things."

"What are they?" I asked.

"Cake and presents." She said. This time, we both leant back, and looked at each other.

"Shall we go?" He said.

"We'd better."

"But-"

"When we get back, I promise I won't stop you the next time." I said. He grinned.

"What should we tell them?"

"I don't know, you?" I said back.

"I have an idea. Let's not say anything. It'll be fun." He said.

"I'm cool with that. Come on, let's go." I said, before kissing him quickly one last time. "Cana?"

"I know, not a word..."

"So you two are together then, since when?" Cana asked, as we headed back to the 'clearing of the gods'.

"Since around...five minutes ago." I said.

"You just admitted your love, and then kissed? That is so kawaii..." she laughed. "Who said it first?"

"Natsu, it was really funny." I said. "He went all red."

"Hey! So did you after you had finished gawking at me like a goldfish!"

"I am not a goldfish!"

"My my, already the break up? And so soon..." Cana laughed.

"No!" We said at the same time, and laughed.

"No joke, you two are incredibly adorable together." She said.

We got back to the clearing, and saw everyone waiting for us, with a largish bag.

"Finally! Did you catch them doing anything cheesecake?" Mira asked.

"Yes, kissing with tongues." She said, before sitting down, we both stared aghast at her, but to our confusion, Mira laughed.

"I don't know how you put up with her teasing..." she said.

After presents, we went to sleep. The next morning we would be packing up and heading of. The night was still warm, but it was becoming cooler. I couldn't sleep, but I could hear everyones rythmic breathing.

"Luce?" Natsu called silently.

"Awake." I said.

"I miss you." He said.

"I'm right here." I answered.

"No." I heard rustling of sleeping bags as he got up. I saw his silhouette. "I miss you." He repeated.

"I miss you to." I admitted.

"Let's go back to the cliff." He said. I wanted it as much as he did.

"You're on." I said, and got up. He took my hand, and we ran of.

We sat on the cliff edge, hand in hand.

"Do you think it will change, now?" He finaly said, after staring at the harvest moon.

"What?"

"Me, you, will it change?"

"Hmm...no, I'll just let you kiss me, and I'll be kissing you." I said, he laughed.

"Good." He said, and quickly kissed me, and again, and again. The quick kisses startled me, and I leant back, but he kept placing them on my lips, I laughed. So much kissing... Is this weird?

"Natsu! Stop!" I joked, till I leant back so much, I was lying on the grass. He kissed me one last time, but longer.

"I love you too much." He said.

"Believe me, I have been wondering if I would ever tell you for ages." I said.

"I've been wondering how quick we would go." He said, and pulled me up.

"Pervert." I laughed. "If you're that good a kisser, I can probably guarantee that we will go quite fast."

"Oh really?" He raised an eyebrow. "I've also been wondering if you saw the old cabin by the tree we were in."

"No, can't say I did."

"And also, wether you are scared of cabins in the woods." He said, as he put his hands on my waist and pulled me towards him. The way he could change so suddenly was hard to keep up with, but all the same very entertaining.

"I'm not." I said, liking were it was going.

"And I was wondering if you would like to go there for a while, just you and me." He said, grinning, but differently.

"Maybe." I said, teasing him.

"Maybe? Pff..." he said. He then kissed me.

"Probably." I said, he kissed me again. "Okay." I said. He laughed, and dragged me off through the undergrowth. I was kind of scared, but it didn't matter, if it meant making out with Natsu without the guilty conscious. Maybe we were going fast? Ah well, it was our relatonship, we did what we wanted. We arrrived at the cabin, and he stopped at the door, catching me, and placing both hands on my waist, I put mine to his chest.

"Do you like the way I am?" He asked.

"What? Do you mean the way you are when it comes to kissing?"

"Yeah..." he said.

"Kind of quick, forcefull, violent... there is something absurdly attractive in it, so yes, how about me, what am I like?"

"You get this look in your eyes that makes me go that way, but I think you like getting hurt." He said, with a kind of growl in his voice.

"Hurt? Not hurt, maybe I like the other person being in charge?" I said.

"Nope, you like getting hurt." He said, grinning the usual grin.

"Tsch... what? Are you going to hurt me?" I said.

"Nope." He said, and pulled me into the cabin. The door closed behind us, and it was completely dark, I couldn't see a thing. He let go of my hand. I was scared.

"N-Natsu?" I said, a slight squeak in my voice.

"Here." He said.

"Where?"

"Here." He repeated, but the voice came from another area of the room.

"Natsu, not funny!" I complained.

"Oh?" He said, once again another area. "Isn't it?"

"I'm scared." I said.

"You said I was violent, what do you mean?" He asked, as I felt hands on my right arm.

"Well, you pushed me against a wall the last time we listened to music together, and you seem to like love bites." I said.

"Oh, okay." He said. The hand snaked up my arm, and his other hand took my left arm. He pushed me again, until I came crashing against the wall. His mouth found mine, and it was already open, and I opened mine. Our tongues played together again. I put my hands around his neck, pulling him closer. His breath was just as quick as mine. My pyjamas were three quarter leggings, and a t-shirt, his were shorts and a t-shirt. He put his hand in the crook of my knee, pulling my leg up to his waist, and he stroked my cheek. The closeness of everything, was so overwhelming, so...excplicit, it was the most amazing thing I had ever experienced, our movements were totally coordinated with one another, knowing what one another was going to do, feeling the right places, he did this thing, where he ran the nail of his thumb down my spine, under my t-shirt. It sent shivers up my nervous system, that made me let out a gasp.

"Am I doing it right?" He asked between breaths. I laughed, panting.

"I don't think there's a right or wrong to this, but it feals awesome, if that's any consolation." I said.

"Mhm..." he said, well, started saying, but my tongue stopped him from continuing.

"Hey! You interrupted me!" He said, once we broke apart again.

"Technically that wasn't interupting. But anyway, my go." I said.

"W-what? To do what?" He sais, uncertain all of a sudden.

"This." I said, taking my leg out of his clutch, and turning him around so he was against the wall. I heard him laugh.

"Huh..." he said.

"What? Did you think I was very naive? Just to tell you, I've had as much expreience as you doing this, we are on the same level here." I said.

"What are you gonna do?" He asked.

"Give you a taste of your own medicine." I said, that urge taking me over, I was new person, no. I was myself, just very in love and turned on.

I put my lips to his exposed throat, but I had to stand slightly on my tippy toes, and lean against him. I understood why he liked doing it. His neck was soft, and warm, really warm, also, I could feel, and practically hear his heart beat, which was very fast. I kissed down, and then I licked, up, to his ear, where I nibbled it, I heard him gasp, it was nice being in control. I licked again, going down. I pulled his t-shirt down slightly, revealing more of his color bone. I kissed that, then bit it slightly, only putting a bit of pressure on, but that was enough.

"Lucy..." he half gasped, half sighed.

"Here." I said between kisses.

"I'm the boss." He said, spinning me around in one sharp movement. He was holding my wrists together.

"Is this a fight?" I asked.

"No. A fight entails a battle that can be won by either side. This is a battle that's already won." He said, before holding my arms up, still together by the wrists.

"How do you plan to win it?" I asked.

"like this." He said, before I felt his tongue, licking my collar bone, but it didn't stop there. He continued licking down, right to my cleavage.

"Mmm...Natsu..." I sighed. He laughed slightly. My eyes fluttered close. The pure bliss of everything was way to overwhelming. To think I knew pleausre eating ice cream? This put ice cream to shame. Every touch, every move, every word, every breath, heartbeat, sigh, gasp, was another dose of pleasure.

"Natsu?" I said, panting.

"Mhm?" He said, still licking.

"Maybe..." I started, but I found it hard to finish, my mind seemed to be leaving me too. "Maybe we should moderate ourselves a bit...we did just only kiss for the first time around two hours ago." I managed to say. He stopped, and let my hands down. He was panting slightly too.

"Were you not enjoying that?" He asked.

"No, no, that's not it. That was amazing! It's just, if were not careful, we might end up losing our virginity on the first night of being together." I said, blushing in the dark at the thought of it...

"Hmm...maybe, but let me just kiss you one last time before we go back." He said.

"Please, do." I said. He did, lips closed at first, but open the next. He seemed like an expert, maybe I seemed that way to him? I felt his hand, on my breast, gently squeezing. The cheek of that guy... I slapped his hand, and he took it off, smiling, I could feel it.

Honestly, he would be the death of me.

I can still remember that moment. Natsu had gone of, and Lucy followed behind him. We were all thinking the same thing, will he tell her? Will she tell him? Of course, Levy knew because Lucy had told her that she had the hots for Natsu, but for the rest of us, it was a joke, who knew they were so serious.

"Cana, follow them, we don't want Lucy to be forced into anything." Erza said to me, as serious as ever.

"Tsch, calm down Erza. I doubt Natsu will succeed into forcing her to do anything."

"Follow them." She repeated.

"Fine." I said, picking up my bottle, and going through the woods in the direction they went in.

When I found them, I hid behind a tree. Natsu was unwrapping something, probably Lucy's present to him. He seemed happy, but she seemed anxious. Then Natsu spoke, and I'm sure I didn't imagine it now, he blushed, and Lucy stared at him startled.

"There goes the bombshell." I said, taking a swig straight after. He spoke again, and Lucy seemed to jump out of a trance, and spoke. He then smiled.

"And all's happy." I sighed, drinking. They loved each other so much, it was visible, the look on their faces, the way he said something, and they approached each other, and the way they kissed, very passionately. They stopped after some time, and stared at each other. Wow, I just remembered, I was able to see the glint in their eyes. That night was ages ago. But after that, they spoke again, before kissing more, this time, very very passionately, quick, and it seemed very hot, and tactile, and spitty.

"Cana, stop beeing a creep and go out there." I told myself. I walked out, they just kept on kissing, ignoring me, but I could here there harsh intakes.

I remembered the moment Lucy arrived in Magnolia. Well not the moment she arrived, but the moment I met her... I thought, 'that blond is hot.' Was I a real pervert? Meh, who cared? Then I remembered the moment I saw her first with Natsu. They both had the same look in their eyes, the look of someone who had something to hide, and who had just made a very nice friend. I still need to discover their secret, but they were so cute. When we had milkshakes, they sat next to each other, and when I left the table to go to the bathroom, I saw leg fighting under the table. Then at my place, when we played truth or dare, and she had to kiss him, she definitely fell in love with him.

Lucy, Natsu, thanks for making me realise what love is, and I'm sorry that I remembered all of that, so I'm afraid, I have to blame you. It's your fault my life is the way it is now, couldn't it of been like it was them? I knew shit was going on between Gray and me, but still, I had my dad! But because of you, that changed! I spent my childhood fatherless!
