-At Camp, Lucy's POV-
Hmm, what happened? Oh gosh, I remember... So embarrasing *mentally slaps face*
"Hey, blondie, you awake?" Laxus asks
"Mhm..."
"You said you need to bandage me up, but you're the one who faints, heh"
"S-Shut up!"
"Make me!" Laxus says
Hmph, so annoying sometimes...
"So, you know why you fainted?" Laxus asks
"Err... not really"
"Hmm. You fainted right after I took off my shirt. It seems like you fainted just looking at my body." Laxus says with a wide smirk on his face (A/N: You don't know how spot on you are right now Laxus!)
"Tch, whatever. I still need to bandage you"
"Hm. Here" Laxus says as he hands me the roll
"I'll just..." I awkwardly wrap my arms around him, trying not to touch him, GAH SO AWKWARD
"If you're going to be that slow, I might as well do it myself, Blondie" Laxus says as my face gets hotter and hotter by the second
Heh, she's blushing so much right now. Laxus thinks
"S-Sorry..." I say trying to calm down
-The rest of the group walks in, Normal POV-
"Hey guys!" Happy says, surprising both of them
"Looks like they need their own room" Ever says with a small grin on her face
"S-Shut up! I was just bandaging him... someone threw something at him leaving a scratch on his back." Lucy says
-Happy flies over to Lucy and Laxus-
"You two liiiikkkkeee each other" Happy whispers into their ears
"S-Shut up! Stupid cat!" Laxus and Lucy say together
"Mhm okay... When we get back to the guild I know which pair the demon matchmaker to get together" Happy says with a smirk
"Tch..." Laxus mumbles
"Let's just sleep already... it's pretty late so if we sleep now we might be able to wake up in time for tomorrow's training." Laxus says as everyone agrees
Since the group was pretty worn out from all of the drinking, and the rest of the events of the day, they all fell fast asleep, except for Laxus.
Lucy looks so adorable when she sleeps. D-Do I have feelings for her? Well, it isn't my fault if I fall for her... she's smart, pretty, not to mention easy to mess with heh. Hmm, she looks a bit cold. I'll let her borrow my jacket. Laxus thinks to himself
Laxus walks over to Lucy and lays his coat over her, only to get pulled onto the floor with her, and hugged really tightly, and starts blushing. He struggles to get out, to realize that she is one heck of a hugger.
Hmph, how do I get out? I don't want to wake her up... Meh, I could get used to this Laxus thinks as he starts hugging her back Sweet dreams he says as he kisses her forehead
-Morning Time-
"Hehe, look at those two, snuggling each other. Quick, take a picture before one of them wakes up!" Happy says as Freed takes out his phone and takes a picture.
"This'll be a nice photo to send to Mira" Freed smirks
"H-Hey! W-What are you doing sleeping next to me!" Lucy yells as her face gets as bright red as a tomato
"S-Sorry... I was trying to give you my coat because you looked cold and you pulled me in!" Laxus says
"Hmph, j-just get off now" Lucy says as they both realize they're still next to each other
"Hehe, look what I have - A nice photo of you two getting close to each other" Freed says as Ever starts giggling
"S-Shut up!" Laxus says
"D-Delete it!" Lucy says
"Heh, too late, I think he already sent it to everyone in his contacts" Ever says
-All of their phones vibrate-
"Oh gosh..." Lucy mumbles
"Tch, whatever. You're gonna pay..." Laxus says "Let's start training. We're already one hour off of schedule."
-At the Guild-
Once Mira gets a text message, she starts laughing to herself
"Mira, what's so funny?" Cana says as she drinks her beer
"O-Oh, just this picture" Mira replies as she shows the picture to Cana
"Hmm, some people go closer during the past few days" Cana says as she starts chuckling
"Ssshhh! Don't tell anyone. Except for Levy maybe. Okay?" Mira says as Cana nods
"You know when they're coming back?" Cana asks
"Hmm, no, not really" Mira replies
-Back at the Camp-
"Now Lucy, pick up that boulder" Laxus directs Lucy
"Why? And I just caught you saying my name and not blondie" Lucy questions him as she sticks her tongue out at him
"Because, in order for you to get stronger through your magic, you need to get stronger physically, Blondie" Says Laxus smirking, and Lucy does what she's told, pouting "As for the rest of you, start doing what Blondie's doing" Laxus says as everyone reluctantly nods their heads
-Time Skip: 3 Hours- (A.N: I don't want to describe all of their training... I'm too lazy...)
"Are we done yet... I'm getting hungry" Happy says as he rubs his stomach
"For now, yes we are done. Where to?" Laxus says
"Let's go to the Seafood Buffet!" Happy says as he flies around in excitement
"Hmm, okay." Laxus says
"Yay! Let's go!" Lucy says as she starts walking towards town
-Done eating already: approximately an hour later-
"I'm stuffed" Lucy says
"Me too" Happy says in agreement
"When are we going to go back to the guild?" Lucy asks in curiosity
"Probably in a month. We need to get at least that much done to improve both your physical and magical strength." Laxus says
"Hmm... okay" Lucy replies
-Time Skip: 1 Month later-
Over the course of one month, The whole group has improved greatly. Happy can use his magic longer and can now use a short sword given to him by Laxus, Lucy has just improved and can summon two celestial spirits even longer now, etc. (A/N: Maybe even some relationships made, hm hm?) They finally arrived at the guild.
"Hey guys, we're back!" Lucy says
Everyone says their greetings, except for some people.
"I thought you left the guild already, puny!" Natsu said
"No, I didn't. But I have gotten stronger." Lucy replies, tears welling up in her eyes
"Oh really now? Psh, I don't believe you" Natsu yells back
"I-I don't care. I know my own strengths, you can't tell me what I know is wrong." Lucy says, trying really hard to hold back her tears, but fails and a tear rolls down her cheek. Laxus goes over to her and tries to comfort her, and in trying she runs away to her apartment.
"Lucy, wait up!" Laxus yells at her, following her.
"Tch, and I wonder why I even invited her to this guild." Natsu mumbles to herself
