Chapter 104

You Jealous?

"I may have been a little...well may I was a tiny bit..." Natsu hedged for a moment but finally blurted out the dreaded word. "Jealous."

Lucy's eyes went wide in surprise.

"Jealous?" she repeated, disbelievingly.

"Yes, jealous." Natsu couldn't help getting defensive. "I mean you've been hanging out with him non-stop for a month. I thought that you were going to start dating him and you wouldn't have time for me...I mean us...for Fairy Tail."

For a moment there was silence.

Natsu was more than a little insulted as Lucy's resolve finally broke and she dissolved into gales of laughter.
