Lucy's P.O.V.
"Natsuuuu!" I whine, "Where are we supposed to sleep?"
"Uhhh" Natsu replies dumbly, "On the ground?"
"If only we had gotten then job done sooner, we wouldn't be having this problem!"
Here let me explain what happened earlier today, and why Natsu and I now have to sleep in the dirt (ground) in a forest. Honestly, it's not even the dirt that bothers me, it's the forest surrounding the dirt! Anyway, like before, Matsu and I decided to go on a job. The job was simple, capture a couple of bandits, turn 'em in, and get the reward.
Bam, we're done! Sounds simple right? Well, not if your partner is a fire dragon slayer. Natsu ended up destroying half of the town while catching the bandits, so the mayor made us do a little extra work. But in my opinion, little extra work my butt! He made us do, a lot more of extra work. We practically had to solve every single problem in town. All the way from the simple things like helping mothers watch their little ones, which wasn't that bad until Natsu started playing with fire, to catching burglars robbing a store. It was crazy! Natsu and I were running back and forth, and since we decided not to bring Happy for...other reasons that I'll explain later. We couldn't fly or anything, we just had to suck it up, and run to the other side of town. The mayor made us work till sunset, so by the way the time we left, it was already dark, and all the trains had already left. So we resorted to walking back to Magnolia, which means sleeping on the dirt in the middle of the forest.
"Hey Luce?" Natsu says, setting a Bon fire in the process.
"Yes Natsu?" I ask, while I set up the blankets/sleeping bags.
"I really am sorry about today" he says in a defeated and guilty tone.
"Oh Natsu" I say and then walk over to him, where he's sitting on a tree stump, "It's okay, I know you were just trying to get the job done." Then I giggle, "You just gotta watch where you throw your fireballs!"
He looks up and smiles at me, "So does this mean you've forgiven me?"
"There was nothing to forgive in the beginning!" I smile right back at him, with gentle eyes.
"Oh thank goodness! Because I've really been wanting to do this!" Then he picks me up in an embrace and kisses me. It started out as a sweet and gentle kiss, but then turned into something with a burning passion.
"Luce?" Natsu says while kissing me.
I know exactly what he's asking for so I open my mouth. His tongue comes swirling into mine, and the fight for dominance begins. Natsu was the first to pull away, but it was only so he could pick me up, and lay me down on the blankets. Of course, with him following. We begin kissing again same passion and everything, until we both pull away with heavy breathing. Natsu being on top of me, looks down at me, his eyes full of love and passion.
"I love you Luce" he says like a gentle whisper.
"I love you too Natsu" I reply smiling.
Then he gathers me in an embrace, my back to his chest, and we fall asleep. Well, I fall asleep.
Natsu's P.O.V.
I look down at the sleeping angel beside me, well she's not really an angel when she's awake, but asleep she is. Hehe! I can't believe that I finally get to call her mine, she's my everything, and I promise that one day, she will only be mine. My mate, my wife, the mother of my children, my everything, and one day. I'm gonna change her name to: Lucy Heartfilia Dragneel, my wife.
I kiss Lucy on the neck, and then her shoulder gently so she wouldn't wake. Then I wrap my arms around her tighter, pulling her close to me. Then I place my head in the crook of her neck, and murmur, "Sweet dream Luce, I love you," and then I fall into a gentle sleep with my weirdo.
