Disclaimer~ I GlenCocoSavesTheDay does not own Fairy Tail, my ships would have sailed by now. But they will, THEY WILL I TELL YOU! Also the lovely cover image is not my art work but it's made by fabulous yoriru from tumblr.
Authors Note~ Do not forget Natsu is human now! Also I would like to mention that the ship LaMi, Laxus and Mira will appear soon! I want to know if I should Bixanna in my story, it's up to you guys! On with the story!
Natsu Dragneel has still not set me down. I have asked him countless of times to put me down, but he refuses. I've even told him I was okay now, he still refuses. Right now I am sitting bridal style in Natsu's arms while he talks with his father. Igneel is giving me an amused looks here and there, I will so get revenge. I just don't understand why Natsu will not let me stand, I am perfectly cable of doing so! I even tried to hit him, he pinned me against his chest. It's kind of a good thing though because, I was blushing like crazy.
The more I tried to hide myself in his arms, the more I took notice of how much muscle he truly had. I could feel how ripped he was, well because I was pressed against him. How in the world did he get so built? I wanted to touch his muscles, is that bad? Never in my life did I think I would fall this hard for any guy. Not only was it his body that was amazing, but it was all of him.
Natsu was so happy all the time, and it made me happy. Natsu from time to time is quite funny, he likes making puns a lot too. His smile was just so contagious. I wanted to spend all my time with him. I have never felt this way about anyone else in my life, I was just so in love with him. Every moment I spend with Natsu, I fall deeper in love with him. I just need to know, did he feel the same way?
Natsu Dragneel was one of the hardest people to read though. Sometimes he's like an open book, then the next he is hard to crack. Natsu has shared many deep things with me, and I also shared many things with him. I wish Natsu would just tell me how he feels towards me, maybe he was just as scared as I was. I just wanted to hear him say those three big words, no not I love kale. That would be a nightmare if that happened.
Natsu was so warm too, you would think he would be normal temperature now that he's human. Well he's not exactly human either. Natsu has the qualities of a dragon even though he's not in dragon form. My eyes wandered up to Natsu's mouth, he was smiling. His teeth had little fangs, it was kind of cute. And his lips, they were a little chapped but looked also soft. I think I might have been staring for a bit too long, because Natsu was now looking down at me with a red face.
Why was he so red? Was he getting sick? Can Natsu even get sick? Maybe I'm too heavy for him, please let that not be what's happening. Natsu was just, staring at me. I looked over to Igneel and saw him holding in his laughter. What was so funny? Did I have something on my face?
"So are you two going to give me an answer?" Igneel asked. Wait what? I don't remember him asking us anything. I guess I was so entranced by Natsu's lips that I spaced out, oh boy what's happening to me. I need to snap out of it! I mentally smacked myself for being an idiot, I need to pay attention more! All this romantic stuff is going to be the death of me.
"Can you ask me again please?" Natsu and I said in unison. Igneel started to chuckle and put his hand onto Natsu's shoulder. Natsu started to sweat bullets, maybe he was sick. I really wanted him to stop sweating though, I was starting to stick to him. Natsu was also heating up, I didn't know he could do that.
"Did I hear you correctly?" Natsu asked nervously. What was so bad? Did he offer us some kale? Because that's the only bad thing I could think of right now. What could get Natsu to blush so much. Maybe Igneel was talking about something embarrassing and Natsu was just being a baby.
"When am I going to get some little babies from you two?" Igneel asked seriously. W-What? I was about to say something like "No Way!" until Natsu did something. Natsu dropped me right into the water. The water was so cold compared to Natsu, it was like a wakeup call. Igneel expected us to have babies!
Oh my goodness what the heck was I going to do? I need to stop thinking of things like this because it really distracts me from the task at hand. I was going to drown from staying underwater this long. I stood up quickly and gasped for air. I turned to see Igneel messing with Natsu's hair. Knuckle heads, flame brains, dimwits, Natsu and Igneel were all of those things I just listed.
"I expect to see little ones soon!" Igneel cackled as he ran over to Wendy and Romeo to probably pester them like he does to us. I turned back to Natsu who was staring at me, I glared at him. How dare him drop me! Why in the world would he drop me! I was soaking wet, I will get my revenge! I began to walk over to Natsu very quickly. Natsu stood still, looking a bit confused I might add.
"Natsu Dragneel." I hissed walking a little bit faster. Natsu took a step back watching me carefully. Natsu's face said one thing, but his eyes said another. His eyes were filled with amusement.
"What is it Luce?" Natsu laughed nervously. I was about 3 feet away from him, Natsu took another step back. I started to laugh evilly. Yes, be scared of the Almighty Lucy Heartphilla! I pounced on him. Natsu made some sort of a squealing sound as I started to drag him down into the water with me.
"Revenge!" I laughed as I wrestled with Natsu's arms. Natsu started to laugh along with me as he tried to stop my movements. I could see him smirking as he started to realize he was succeeding. Darn him! Natsu was just so much stronger than me. Natsu turned me around so that my back was to his chest. Natsu wrapped his arms around my ribs right below my chest. What did he think he was doing?
"I've got you now Lucy." Natsu whispered into my ear. Oh my Mavis, why did he do this to me. I tried to leap out of his grip until he did something that surprised me. Natsu yelled something out that was so not expected.
"Brain Buster!" Natsu shouted as he lifted me up into the air. I felt so, embarrassed. Natsu was cackling like a maniac, he was so evil. I will shave his eyebrows off if he doesn't put me down, Natsu and Jellal can have an no-eyebrow club.
"Let me down!" I cried as I started to kick the air. Natsu struggled to keep his grip on me, maybe I was a little too heavy. Natsu thinks he's so funny doesn't he? Natsu stopped laughing when he tipped over into the water. Natsu and I were now tangled together, underwater. Natsu turned me around and tried to free our legs. Natsu had his left leg around mine and I had my right one wrapped around both of the back his knees.
Natsu pulled us out of the water and was hugging me closely. I hid my face right into his chest, my leg was still wrapped around his. I untangled my limbs and tried to pull back. Natsu still had his arms wrapped around my shoulders. I looked up at him, he was smirking at me.
"Your revenge was a fail." Natsu teased. Idiot, what an idiot. He thinks this is over, it's not! You have won this round Natsu Dragneel.
Lucy: 0
Natsu: 2
"We could have drowned you fool!" I hissed. I would have whacked him, but I couldn't. My arms were pinned by his. Natsu had his face coming closer to mine, was he going to kiss me? No way. It's like the world around us silenced, it was just Natsu and I. Natsu's face was so close to mine, his lips only inches apart from mine. I wonder what it would feel like if I kissed those chapped lips.
"When I said to make babies soon, I didn't mean now." Igneel beamed. That silence that I had a moment ago, it was gone. Natsu and I stopped, was he really going to kiss me? Natsu's body was heating up again, and so were my cheeks.
"I was just telling Luce she had some dirt on her face." Natsu smiled. What? Natsu looked back to me and started to caress my cheek. I could feel myself leaning into his touch. Natsu moved his thumb over my cheek and then pulled away. I was disappointed, I truly wanted him to kiss me. Natsu started to laugh and pulled away from me. How could he easily just throw away what we were going to do.
"Natsu Dragneel." I sneered. Natsu flinched. That's right Natsu, flinch at the wrath of Lucy. Natsu started to laugh nervously as he moved out of the lake and went towards Gajeel and Levy.
"Get out of here Salamander." Gajeel sneered. I could see why Gajeel was so angry. Gajeel and Levy were just about to smooch and Natsu comes up out of nowhere.
"Say something metal brows?" Natsu retorted. Gajeel lifted himself off the ground and pulled onto Natsu's scarf. Natsu growled and slapped his hand away.
"Go hang out with bunny girl and stop getting in the way." Gajeel sneered. Levy got away from the soon to be fight and walked over to me.
"We really got ourselves some keepers huh Lu-chan?" Levy sighed. So I wasn't the only one with romantic problems. At least Levy actually got to kiss Gajeel, Natsu was just so dense.
"At least you two have kissed." I murmured. Levy perked up at this and took me by the shoulders. Levy looked so astonished.
"You two are going to get married and you haven't even kissed?" Levy asked. How could I forget about the marriage!? I swear I dig myself deeper in a hole every day of my life.
"He was a dragon for a long time you know!" I covered my face with my hands. I never realized how embarrassing this actually was. Levy pulled my hands away from my face and shook me with no mercy.
"I have to help you Lu-chan!" Levy shouted, a little louder than needed. Natsu and Gajeel stopped yelling insults at each other and pulled their attention to us. Natsu came over to me and put his arm around my shoulder. Gajeel did the same with Levy.
"What do you need help with Luce?" Natsu asked. Oh god, how was I going to get myself out of this one? What do I tell Natsu? Why am I always put in these situations!?
"I-I need help with," I looked over to Levy for help, she just mouthed I'm sorry. My best friend, was useless. Right when I need her, she leaves me in the dust. Levy-chan why?!
"With what?" Natsu asked. Think Lucy, think! What do I say, what do I say? I looked over to Wendy and Romeo, they were playing tag. Wendy was trying desperately to get away from Romeo. Wendy was laughing along with Romeo, she even blew some wind at him. They looked like they were having so much fun. That's when I got an idea.
"I need help with gathering everyone to play tag!" I yelled with triumph. I was a genius! I should get an award for how genius I was. Natsu's lit up and started to laugh.
"I would love to help you with that!" Natsu laughed as he ran over to everyone else. I looked back to Levy and Gajeel, they looked disappointed.
"Smooth one bunny girl." Gajeel sighed. What?
"What do you mean knuckle head?" I asked. Levy sighed while taking my shoulder into her hand.
"You are so not smooth Lu-chan." Levy sighed. I'm sorry, did I hear that right? Did Levy just really say that? My ears must have so much wax in them that it's causing me to hear things.
"Let's go play tag!" Gajeel mocked as he and Levy walked over to the group. I stood there, with my mouth wide open. Did they just, what was happing with my life? Truly I don't know what is even happening anymore. I turned around and looked at everyone who was chatting. Natsu and Happy were begging Igneel to play along, Juvia still had Gray on her back, and Erza and Jellal were sharing a piece of cake. Wendy and Romeo were with Levy and Gajeel talking about something I knew nothing of. These people were all I've got, they were my home.
I walked over to Natsu and Happy only to have Happy jumping into my chest. Happy was hugging me tightly, what was he up to? Happy suddenly stuck his tongue out at Natsu. I was so confused, was this cat planning something? I took my eyes off of Happy and looked up to Natsu, he was so red.
"Happy get off of her!" Natsu started to pull onto Happy's legs. Was Natsu, jealous? No way, Natsu Dragneel is as dense as they come. Natsu couldn't possibly be jealous of a cat, I mean it's Happy were talking about!
"I'm going to stay with Lucy all night!" Happy cheered as he snuggled more into my chest. I looked back to Natsu and saw him with his mouth wide open.
"No I'm going to stay with Lucy all night!" Natsu whined as he pulled on Happy's legs a little bit harder. They were fighting over me? I think Happy was trying to mess with Natsu, who knew Natsu could act like this? I felt Happy's claws go right into my skin, that's when I yelped out.
"Is someone getting jealous?" Happy smirked. Natsu gasped as he finally pulled Happy off of me. Natsu took me by the arm and wrapped his arms around me, my face was right in his armpit. Natsu may smell good at times, but no way did I want to smell his armpit.
"Lucy is mine." Natsu growled. D-Did he just say that? Every one stopped talking and started to burst out laughing. W-Why were they laughing? Maybe Natsu's armpit wasn't so bad, at least I could hide my bright red face.
"Well she is your mate you dolt." Gray chuckled. Natsu must've realized what he said because I could feel how hot he was getting. I have learned today that when Natsu heats up, he's embarrassed.
"I-I know that!" Natsu stuttered. I felt a bit lightheaded. Maybe it was because of embarrassment or it was Natsu's armpit suffocating me. I put my hands on each of Natsu's shoulders and pushed myself away from his armpit.
"I breathe!" I gasped. Natsu looked down at me and smiled.
"Duh." Natsu patted my back harshly. Was he trying to kill me? His patting was like Erza's high five, and don't ever high five Erza. Once Erza and I had just got done with training and decide to give each other a high five, it was a mistake. Erza sent me flying into a wall, on accident. I have learned my lesson, never give Erza a high five.
"Okay kiddies let's play some tag!" Igneel cheered. Gray quickly pried himself off of Juvia's back. Natsu put his arm around my shoulder and squished me to his side, boy was he excited.
"So who's it?" I asked. Igneel looked around at all of us and then pointed to Natsu.
"Natsu will be it!" Igneel exclaimed. I looked up to Natsu who still had his arm around my shoulder. Natsu leaned down a little bit and whispered something.
"I'm going to capture you Lucy." Natsu whispered. I pulled myself out of Natsu's arms and took a few steps back.
"Catch me if you can dragon boy." I laughed as I walked behind Gajeel and Levy.
"Can you two stop flirting and start the game already." Romeo groaned. I slapped my hand onto my forehead. This was coming from a 14 year old boy, I don't want hear it!
"Let's begin!" Igneel cackled as we all ran off in different directions. I decided to go towards the grassy area. Maybe I could hide in the tall grass until someone gets caught. I turned back to see if Natsu was behind me, he was. Natsu was right on my tail laughing like an idiot.
"I'll get you Lucy!" Natsu laughed. I ran as fast as I could and booked it for the tall grass. Yes it would slow me down, but it will also slow Natsu down. I glanced back on more time, and let me tell you, it was a mistake. I guess I should have looked where I was going, because pain shot right up through my foot. Something had gone into my foot, and I could feel myself bleeding.
"Ow!" I hissed. I grabbed my foot and started to hop around like an idiot. I guess Gajeel had the right to call me bunny girl right now. I was about to fall face first until Natsu caught me, this was the second time today I am being carried bridal style. Natsu set me down gently and started to examine my foot. I was about to ask what happened until I felt a chill go up my spine.
"You stepped on my booze!" I heard a woman's voice cry out. I looked back and saw a woman sitting next to me. She had long brown wavy hair, and she was very pretty but also smelled like boozes. She was wearing her undergarments, and a small jacket. Well I'm not one to judge because I'm wearing a bikini at the moment.
"Who are you?" I asked. The women looked at me from head to toe as she took a sip of her beverage, then she smiled at me.
"I'm Cana, the booze queen!" Cana announced. Booze queen? Now that she mentions it, she really does smell like alcohol.
"Nice to meet you Cana!" I half shouted. I felt pain shoot through my foot again. I looked back to Natsu to see him pulling a piece of glass out.
"Well who are you and Romeo over here?" Cana asked while pointing to Natsu.
"I'm Lucy and this is Natsu." I said while trying to hold in a yelp. I could hear Natsu calling Wendy to come quick. Wendy came running quickly over to us and gasped when she saw my foot.
"You have to be more careful Lucy-san!" Wendy exclaimed as she started to heal my foot. I didn't know Wendy could do that. Wendy had some kind of green and sparkly magic coming out of her hands. Everyone else came rushing over to us.
"Are you okay?" Erza asked. I nodded my head and looked back to Cana who was drinking like no tomorrow.
"Who is she?" Romeo asked. Cana introduced herself to everyone and even commented on Gray's lack of clothing.
"Done!" Wendy sighed as she whipped her forehead.
"Thank you!" I cried as I hugged Wendy to death. Wendy patted my back and got up from the ground. I was about to lift myself up until Natsu decided to do it for me.
"You are not walking anywhere anymore." Natsu sighed.
"You can't control me." I grumbled. I guess I must have worried Natsu, because he now resorted to me never walking again.
"Aren't you two the cutest!" Cana came right up behind us.
"Yeah the cutest." Gajeel mocked. Levy smacked him on the head and started to complain to him. Levy and Gajeel were so meant for each other.
"So now that it's getting a bit late," Igneel smiled. " Let's have a campfire!" Everyone cheered and started to walk towards the lake. Cana looked a bit down though, did she want to join? Cana seemed like quite the partier, might as well and invite her!
"Come join us Cana!" I smiled. Cana looked up at me with hopeful eyes.
"Really!" Cana exclaimed. I nodded and pulled on her small jacket. I looked back to Natsu and signaled him to move.
"Let's party!" Cana cheered. Cana ran ahead of us and started to talk to Erza and Jellal, she even mentioned his eyebrows. I could hear Jellal's gasp and boy did I want to laugh, Jellal was so sensitive sometimes.
"Lucy." Natsu said. I looked up to Natsu and saw him looking a bit worried. Was this about my foot? Maybe he will confess his love for me, or not.
"What's up?" I asked. Natsu looked down at me and rested his forehead on top of mine.
"You do realize that you still have to do anything I ask you right?" Natsu smirked. Crap! How in the world could I forget about that?! It's just been so long since we were at Juvia's. I surely thought Natsu would forget, he forgets very easily. But no, of course he remembers what I promised him.
"When we get home you can ask me then." I groaned. I seriously did not want to deal with it right now. Natsu started to laugh as he walked us towards the campfire. I kind of wonder what Natsu will ask me to do, hopefully it won't be something embarrassing.
