Chapter 23~ My burning butt?!

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 fabulous cover is done by yoriru from tumblr, go check her out!

Authors Note~ Do not forget that Natsu is now a human! Also I would like to announce Mira and Laxus will show up in the next couple chapters. Don't think I forgot his 3 lovely followers of his! Oh I almost forgot, Lisanna will show up but won't cause any trouble! So fear not my friends! On with the story friends!

I woke up to the sound of something very unpleasant. Could you take a guess what that could be? Probably not. It seems I can never wake up to a nice normal morning. My mornings are consisted of waking up naked, Cana messing with me, and the Kale beast. My life sure has gotten adventurous over the couple months I've been with the wacky dragon boy Natsu Dragneel. Don't get me wrong, I love spending time with everyone and especially him. I just want one normal morning. Anyways back to me waking up!

"Gray-sama!" I could hear Juvia shout. What the heck did he do now? Maybe Erza finally beat him up for stripping. Who cares though, I'm very warm right now. But I kind of felt a slight coldness on my butt. Maybe it's just the wind getting to me! I don't really have a blanket with me, but I have Natsu.

"I was trying to save her!" Gray cried. Who was Gray trying to save? Process of elimination Lucy, there's only four other girls not including me. Who in the world would need saving though? I mean, we all can handle ourselves pretty well.

"She is so going to kill you for this stripper!" Gajeel cackled. Okay, I'm pretty sure it's either Erza or... Erza. Well actually, if Gray did something to upset me then I would surely kill him. But I don't feel anything wrong except the slight cold feeling on my butt, but my butt is also warm at the same time. It's just so weird, I don't really know how to explain it. I kind of want to get up and see what's happening, but the warmth is so nice. It's funny how some parts of my body are warm and my butt is cold, why is that?

"It's not funny brain for bolts!" Levy yelled. I heard some kind of whacking sound after Levy scolded him.

"This is actually quite comical don't you think Erza?" Jellal snickered. Hmm, something doesn't seem right. Jellal was usually never one to joke around, he is a calm and cool type of guy. Wait! If Erza isn't the one who's going to kill someone, then who is it. Okay Lucy, time to get off your lazy warm butt and wake up. Wait, why is my butt so warm now?

"What's going on?" I groaned as I opened my eyes. I regret my choice to wake up now, everyone was surrounding Natsu and I. They all jumped back and shrieked like I was a ghost or something, was I that scary in the morning? Natsu wakes up to me all the time and he's perfectly fine, what if he's just trying to be nice!? No Natsu would say it out loud and bluntly, so what was wrong?

"Were sorry!" Wendy cried as she kneeled in front of me. What did they do? Am I really a ghost? Oh stop being stupid Lucy! Obviously your alive and breathing!

"What's wrong?" Natsu shot up and looked around frantically. I also looked around, nothing seemed out of place. Igneel and Happy hugged each other tightly, which I find very weird. Gajeel was being carried by Levy, what in the world are they doing? I really don't even want to question them right now.

Erza was kneeled next to Wendy telling me to... punch her? Gray and Juvia were hiding behind a bush laughing nervously. Jellal was lifting his nonexistent eyebrow repeatedly at Natsu, which looked a bit funky with the marker and all. My eyes wandered over to Cana as she made kissy faces at me as she laughed like no tomorrow.

"What did you do?" I asked. Erza shot her head up and looked away nervously. This was so unlike Erza, she was always so tough. They must have done something really bad for everyone to be so silent. But then I felt something very warm and unpleasant grab onto my butt. I tried to get up but failed when something kept me down.

"My butt!" I cried as I turned around to look. Natsu looked with me, and we both had red tomato faces after looking. Natsu's hand was on my butt, incased in ice. Only one person could do this, and I was going to kill him.

"Gray you little pervert I will kill you!" I shouted as I tried to get up again but failed. Natsu's hand was literally stuck on my butt, I'm going to die of embarrassment now! How in the world does this even happen? What the hell was Gray thinking?

"What's the meaning of this?" I hissed. I was generally talking to everyone one but I glared at Gray the whole time.

"We were messing around with magic," Jellal coughed. "And then this happened." How does something like this happen so casually? I glanced over to Natsu to see how he was doing, he was perfectly fine now.

"How in the world are you okay with this?" I huffed as I poked Natsu's cheek. Natsu looked away sighing and scratched the back of his head. Then turning back to me he smiled, which usually made me feel alright but now it made me mad. Natsu Dragneel was grinning like a buffoon with his hand on my butt.

"Well I don't see anything wrong with it." Natsu grinned. I heard everyone gasp around us. W-Wait a second. Did I forget to clean my ears or something? I'm pretty sure I just heard those words leave Natsu's mouth. The more I spend time with Natsu, the more I find out he's some sort of closet pervert.

"What in the world don't you see wrong with it?" I questioned. Natsu moved his fingers a little, how in the world was he doing that? It seemed that Natsu was slowly melting the ice, but not fully. Does this fool think this is a joke? My butt is not a joke! I guess I will be the butt every joke now, great time to make puns Lucy!

"Well technically we are together no matter what and that mean's your all mine," Natsu smirked. "So that mean's your butt is also mine." Oh yes, Natsu really did just say that. This was not my mind playing tricks on me.

This was all really happening. Was that some type of confession? Not really what I was looking for, but it sure did give me conflicted feelings. When those words left Natsu's mouth, I felt all sorts of emotions. I felt happy, angry, embarrassed, all at the same time. I wanted to cry for joy but also smack him in his stupid face. Oh boy Natsu really brings out the scary me.

"I had no idea Natsu could be so bold." Jellal held in a laugh. Everyone nodded along with him and I just sat there in shock. I just didn't know how to react. How in the world would you react if the boy you loved said that to you? Probably the same as I am right now.

"My boy has finally grown into a man," Igneel laughed. "All he has to do now is mat-"

"Uncle Igneel my ears!" Wendy shouted as she covered her ears and Romeo did the same. Igneel was going to say something, WHAT WAS HE GOING TO SAY? What was Natsu going to do to me? I just want to hide my head in the ground like some ostrich and never see the light of day again. I knew some dads could be embarrassing but not to this extent.

"W-What did you mean by that Natsu?" I stuttered. I if you could tell, I'm still in shock. Levy and Gajeel snickered a little and so did Cana. Natsu groaned a little and moved his fingers some more. I hit him in the arm and gave him the most deathly glare I could make. Natsu stopped moving his fingers and smiled nervously at me.

"Would you please tell her what Natsu meant Gajeel." Cana snickered at me. I'm pretty sure Cana and Gajeel were in on something. Maybe they were in the pervert club, Cana would be the president of that kind of club. I'm pretty sure the two biggest perverts here are Gajeel and Cana, along with Erza. Erza was a secret pervert, I found one of her erotic novels and I got the biggest nosebleed of all time.

Erza had some really weird stuff in her room, well guest room you could say. Erza and Jellal kind of moved in with us, I don't mind it too much. Natsu and I sneaked into her room thinking we would find something secret worthy. Natsu and I thought we would find nothing, but boy were we wrong. As soon as we read a page from one of her books we bolted right out of there and swore never to go back.

"Basically what he's saying bunny girl is," Gajeel snickered. "Your ass is his and forever will be." Natsu laughed a little when Gajeel cussed. Natsu was like a kid, but then he was a man. Natsu makes me so confused that I just want to cry. I just wanted to whack him for making me blush so much, ugh he will be the death of me.

"Who knew Natsu was so possessive?" Cana chuckled. I really want to get up and attack everyone right now. I just want to stop all this teasing, my brain cannot take all of this. Natsu with his words and Cana and Gajeel with their teasing.

"How do I get his hand off my bum?" I asked. Gray laughed nervously some more and hid behind Juvia. That's right Gray, try hiding, no matter what I will find you and destroy you! Today was suppose to be my revenge on everyone, why couldn't things go my way for once?

"W-Well it's a bit complicated." Gray stuttered. Natsu went to smack his forehead but ended up hitting my butt a little. I was blushing behind belief right now, I just want to hide.

"How is it complicated?" I asked. Gray was now fully behind Juvia, he was hiding.

"You know we can all see you right?" Natsu laughed. Gray popped his head out from behind Juvia.

"Wanna fight ash for brains?" Gray sneered. Natsu cackled as he began to get up but then realized his hand was still attached to my butt. Oh good grief will the embarrassment ever end? Evidently not!

"Wanna fight with us Luce?" Natsu smiled. Okay this time when I got the urge to whack him, I did. I knocked him on the head and glared like there was no tomorrow.

"You got a feisty one Salamander!" Gajeel chuckled. I stopped my attack on Natsu and turned to Gajeel. I swear if he wasn't Levy's mate then I would have destroyed him already. Well I take that back, I wouldn't really want to destroy Gajeel, just a good beating would do.

"I will kick you where the sun don't shine if you don't shut up." I growled at Gajeel. Gajeel looked a bit taken back.

"You will do no such thing!" Gajeel growled back as he covered his groin. That's right Gajeel, be scared of the tough Lucy Heartphilla! Well now that I actually think about it, I would only win a fight with Gajeel with strategy. Gajeel is certainly stronger, but I've got the smarts on my side.

"I sure do love this side of you Luce!" Natsu smiled. I think I could win an award for blushing, is that even a thing? I would surely win when Natsu says all these things to me, there would be no way for me to lose.

"Thank you." I giggled. I kind of forgot we were in the company of people. Get your head in the game Lucy! I need to deal with the problem at hand, I think I made another pun. I glance back to Gray to see him talking with Juvia, totally disregarding his actions.

"Fix this Gray!" I barked. Gray suddenly jumped and came rushing over to the rest of the group along with Juvia.

"Sometimes you're like Erza number two." Gray muttered under his breath. Erza and I both went into action to attack him, but only Erza made it. I just fell right on my butt.

"You little troublemaker!" Erza thundered while she put Gray into a head lock. Jellal laughed as he held back an angry Juvia.

"Do not hurt my Gray-sama!" Juvia cried. Erza finally let go of Gray and huffed as she muttered a sorry. Gray looked so horrified that I almost felt bad for him, almost.

"Stop messing around and fix this ice prick!" I shouted. Everyone turned their heads to me. I guess I was a bit out of character. I never really shout at people, unless their an idiot. Gray was certainly an idiot, such an idiot.

"It takes time to break." Gray mumbled. Hold the front door, did I hear that right?

"How much time?" I asked. Gray shuffled his feet a little and he started to inch backwards.

"How much time Gray?" I sneered. I thought Gray was going to hide behind Juvia, but instead he hid behind Erza. Wrong move Gray, wrong move. Erza will turn you over in no time!

"You either need some really hot fire or wait a day." Gary rushed his words.

"A-A day?" I asked in disbelief. You've got to be kidding me. Natsu's hand will be attached to my bum for a day. I can't handle that, I'm going to explode.

"You're kidding right?" I asked. I think I was sweating, why was I sweating.

"I'm a very hot fire dragon so I've got this!" Natsu cackled. I felt his hand starting to heat up, was that why I was sweating? That's so not the problem right now, he's going to burn my butt off! Was that even possible, burning a butt off?

"Don't!" I hissed. Natsu looked very confused. I guess in this situation it sounded a little weird that I didn't want him to remove his hand.

"I thought you wanted me to?" Natsu whined. I must be confusing the poor kid. I just want a way where my butt is not going to be burned and I don't have to wait a day.

"I don't want you to burn my butt you idiot!" I lightly punched Natsu in the arm. Natsu looked at me with a confused look but then he started to.. smirk?

"What are you thinking?" I hissed. Natsu raised his eyebrows up and down, and put on the heat. I could feel my whole left cheek burning.

"That is so not okay you idiot!" I whined. Natsu was still smiling at me. Did he like hurting me? Actually now that I think about it, my butt was not aching in pain like I thought it would be. I could feel a little sting but that's nothing I can't handle.

"I would never hurt you Lucy." Natsu smiled at me softly as he burned away the remaining ice. Natsu and his stupid sweet words. I could feel my heart flutter at his words. I just want to kiss him right here and now, but not in front of everyone. I almost forgot we had everyone staring at us, kind of hard to forget really.

"Natsu's such a romantic." Cana chuckled as she lightly slapped her knees. Natsu didn't seem to be more romantic as the days go by, could this possibly mean something? Natsu has to like me, it's just so obvious... right?

"What's a romantic?" Natsu asked. I mentally groaned as I knew he was just so hopeless sometimes. I bet everyone was thinking the same thing as me right now. How can I tell you ask? Well Erza face palmed and so did the rest of the group, even Wendy and Romeo.

"Poor Natsu," Happy sighed as he landed on top of my hand. "When will you ever get the concept of love?" Oh Happy, we've all been asking that question for quite awhile. Natsu just huffed and crossed his arms.

"I already do." Natsu grumbled. Natsu said that so low that I could barely hear it, but I heard him.

"Okay I think we should take a bath when we get home Lucy!" Natsu cheered as he got up and reached for my hand. I smiled as I grabbed his hand and brushed off the grass on my swim suit. I wanted to get home as soon as possible and take a nice long bath.

"Y-You bathe together?" Erza asked. Natsu nodded his head and gave her a thumbs up. Erza started to nod her head as she glanced at Jellal and then looked away blushing. Was she think what I think she's thinking?

"It's not like that!" I yelped. Everyone laughed it off as they gathered some of their stuff and headed back towards the cave.

"Sure it is Lucy!" Levy winked at me as she walked with Gajeel. Great, this was just great. I reacted to Natsu's statement like it was normal, way to go Lucy! I suddenly felt a pushed on my lower back and Happy shuffling on my head.

"You know Lucy," Natsu winked as he looked at my behind. "Your butt is really mine now!" Natsu cackled as he looked at my butt. I quickly looked at my behind and realized what he meant. Natsu's hand print was imprinted on my butt, I was going to seriously murder someone today.

"That's going to go away right?" I asked. Natsu looked up but then shook his head.

"You did this on purpose!" I hissed. Natsu winked at me as he started to walk a little bit faster. H-He winked. He did do it on purpose! I expected him to deny it, but he didn't!

"I'm so going to get you for this!" I hissed. I suddenly jumped on Natsu's back which he reacted fast to. Natsu hooked his arms under the back of my knees and snickered at me.

"You just want a piggy back ride don't you?" Natsu stuck his tongue out at me. I hid my face into Natsu's scarf, I knew my face was redder than Igneel's hair right now. Natsu chuckled a little as he hiked me up a bit and ran up to the group. This was going to be a long day, and I will get my revenge for sure this time!

Authors Note~ Hello friends! This is a tiny bit late but that's okay! So I said this would be the chapter where Lucy gets her revenge, but then I just wrote this without thinking.

Don't worry friends, Lucy might confess and even kiss Natsu in the next chapter! I will make the next chapter super long for you guys! This chapter was a little fluffier then intended and I hope it was funny. Happy will finally get some screen time and he will be nicer than usual?! Next chapter will have Nalu, and Lucy Heartphilla's revenge for sure! Fright not my friends, I will make it up to you guys for the long wait of Natsu and Lucy's kiss!
