Chapter 24~ Taste like a smoke and cinnamon.

Disclaimer~ I GlenCocoSavesTheDay does not own Fairy Tail, my drawing skills are not as great as the Great Hiro Mashima. My ships will sail though, THEY WILL I TELL YOU! The fabulous cover art is not made by me but is made by the great artist yoriru from tumblr, go check her out!

Authors note~ Do not forget Natsu is a dragon! Also should I add Cana x Bacchus? Did I even spell his name right? Please tell me if I should because that would be great! On the last chapter I had a lot of errors and I have an excuse why, it was literally 12 am when I wrote it. I am very sorry for that! On with the story friends!

"We're here!" Natsu shouted while he put me down gently on the ground.

"You do realize everyone has gone to their rooms right," I groaned. "So there's no point to even yell that out." Natsu stuck his tongue out at me and began to stretch out his limbs. Natsu carried me the whole way here, I feel a bit bad. He really didn't have to do that, but this is Natsu were talking about here.

"Where did Happy go?" I asked. My eyes wandered around to the room to see no blue cat anywhere in sight. I just don't understand, Happy was with us when we came in...right?I could have sworn that Happy was laying on top of my head when we came in here.

"He's with Carla." Natsu sighed as he cracked his knuckles. Carla? I don't remember meeting a Carla.

"Who's that?" I asked. Natsu finally stopped distracting me with his muscles and walked over to me. Natsu grabbed my hand as he began to pull me off to somewhere. Natsu still hasn't answered my question. What if Carla was someone Natsu use to like, or hates. I really hope Natsu doesn't like anyone, except me.. is the selfish? I sound like a total doorknob.

"Wendy's cat." Natsu called back as he pulled me some more. Oh great Lucy, wait to go. I can't believe I thought that Natsu would like-like a cat, I didn't know she was a cat before that though. Maybe I'm just afraid. I'm scared that Natsu will just reject me, what am I even saying anymore! Of course he likes me, we are mates for god's sake. What am I even worried about? I'm just being paranoid Lucy as always.

"Ohh." I laughed it off. I'm really glad I didn't jump to any conclusions. That would have ended up really bad. Now that I think about it, where is Natsu taking me?

"Where are we going?" I questioned. Natsu looked back and smiled. He just smiled, no talking except a smile. What in the world is that even suppose to mean? Natsu never gives me a straight answer. Even when I ask what he wants to eat, he gives me a stupid answer. Something along the lines of "Whatever you think I should eat Luce." it can get really annoying at times.

"Finally we are here!" Natsu giggled as he opened up a huge blue door. I've been here before, but I can't remember what was at the top of the blue door. I forget what the sign was, I think it was a bathtub. W-Wait, a bathtub?

"What is exactly here?" I asked. Natsu once again, smiled at me. No answer except one huge grin. What a little master mind, what was he planning? Natsu pulled me into the room and closed the door behind me. I took a gander around the room and saw exactly where we were. We were back here, in the bathing room.

"You plan to bathe with me," I smirked. "Don't you?" Natsu winked at me as he wrapped his scarf more securely around his forehead. Natsu's winking is really cute but is also getting to me. Natsu went to the edge of the bath and threw in a couple balls of soap. The soap began to fizzle and create bubbles.

"We have to move around the bath so the bubbles can spread." Natsu laughed as he started to strip his shorts off. Of course I looked away, what kind of girl do you think I am? I heard some splashing behind me and that's when I turned around.

"You're getting into to you know." Natsu cackled as he splashed around. I was so not getting in with him, naked. Yes I've done it before, but he was a dragon then, and I didn't love him like I do now. This is all too embarrassing, no way.

"No way you're crazy." I huffed. Natsu raised an eyebrow as if he was challenging me to something. Natsu crossed his arms as steam started to surround him. Was he doing that? I guess that would make sense if he started to put on some heat in water.

"Are you disobeying me Lucy?" Natsu smirked. Wait, what? Did he think I was suppose to obey him? Natsu must be taking some stupid pills because that is just ridiculous. I'm not his play thing so no way will I listen to him.

"What are you talking about?" I scoffed. Natsu raised his eyebrows and looked extremely amused.

"Did you forget our agreement back at Juvia's?" Natsu said as some more steam surround him. Okay Natsu really needs to take a chill pill because he must be crazy. How in the world could I forget about that stupid agreement we made. I keep forgetting about it too. I really need to stop getting myself into these situations.

"Of course I do," I grinned. "What are you going to do about it?" I just wanted to tease him a little. Will Natsu be surprised? Will he be angry? There are just so many endless possibilities to Natsu's reaction. I think teasing Natsu is always so fun, he usually pouts until I give in.

"What am I going to do?" Natsu laughed. Natsu's laugh seemed a bit off, it sounded not as playful as always. It sounded more... possessive.

"I am so going to do something." Natsu said slowly as he put on some more heat. The whole room was now filled with steam. I couldn't see a thing in here, maybe if I squinted really hard. I frantically looked around in search of Natsu. That idiot, what was he planning to do?

"Where are you?" I called out. I slowly began to walk around making sure not to fall into the bath. I was very close though, I could fall in if I took another step closer to my left side.

"I'm going to get you Luce." Natsu chuckled. I could hear Natsu close by, but I couldn't see him. Curse him and his dragon senses, he can totally find me right now. Natsu could get me any second, but he's not. Natsu's just playing with me right now, like I'm some toy.

"Not if I find you first dragon boy." I smiled. There was one thing I could do right now. And that's play along. Erza had taught me during training how to sense when an enemy is coming. I learned it the hard way though. Erza had me in a dark room with her, it was absolutely terrifying. Erza kept attacking me until I could block one or jump out of the way in time.

"So princess wants to play with the dragon?" Natsu snickered somewhere close by. Natsu was now closer. I feel as if the room got hotter now, but I could feel a shiver run up my spine. I turned around and squinted, nothing was there. I could of sworn something or more like someone was behind me.

"Caught my princess!" Natsu chuckled as he circled his arms around my midsection. That fool! No fair, he caught me off guard. What a little sir cheats a lot. I started to struggle but it was no use, Natsu had me trapped.

"You can try struggling but," Natsu whispered into my ear. "You'll never leave." This was just great, Natsu had me blushing again. Good thing it was hot in here though or else my blush would be visible to the dork behind me.

"What are you going to do now that you've caught me?" I whispered back. I was a bit surprised with my response. Usually I would be stuttering like a buffoon, but no. If Natsu was going to play this game with me, then I will play along as well.

"Hmm." Natsu hummed into my neck. Natsu was just so close to me. I seemed totally unaffected, but in the inside I was internally screaming. Natsu was touching me, he was hugging me from behind. I'm going to explode from a cuteness overload. It just felt so right being in Natsu's arms. I wanted to just melt and swoon over him, I want to stay like this forever with him.

"I'm going to," Natsu lifted his arms up to my ribs. "Take a bath with you." Wait, what? Natsu lit his hand up and started to burn my swim suit away. I tried to wiggle away but to no anvil Natsu had me locked up tight. Natsu cackled as he lifted me up and jumped in to the bath. Well, Natsu succeeded in getting me into the water.

"Natsu Dragneel!" I exclaimed as I quickly got away from him. No way was I going to be skin to skin with him. I would surely explode if that ever happened. I can't believe he burned my swimsuit off! I really like that one too.

"You called?" Natsu said while shooting up in front of me. I yelped as I quickly circled my arms around my chest. I am so not letting me just take a free gander at my chest, no way in hell.

"How could you do that?" I hissed as I lowered myself more into the water. Natsu eyed me carefully as he did the same.

"Do what?" Natsu came closer to me my face. Natsu knew exactly what I meant, what a little faker. Natsu came even closer to my face this time, our noses were touching now. How could Natsu seem so okay with this, wasn't it bothering him? We were always so close to kissing, and he's like immune to it.

"You know what I mean Natsu." I whispered. I don't even know why I whispered. Natsu was so dense, or was he. Natsu looked at my lips and then snapped his eyes back up to mine. Natsu had a certain emotion in his eyes that I think I could now describe, lust. Did Natsu also want to kiss me like I wanted to kiss him?

"Luce." Natsu whispered as he leaned closer. Natsu suddenly did something expected but unexpected. Natsu grabbed both of my cheeks and pulled my face forward. Natsu stuck out his tongue and licked my face from my chin to my forehead. I tried to pull back but Natsu wouldn't let me.

"W-What are you doing?" I stuttered as I held my arms around my chest harder. Natsu looked at me with a confused face. Shouldn't I be the one that's confused? I was just licked up and down my entire face!

"Cana said tongues involves kissing but I don't know what she meant by that." Natsu mumbled. I was too shocked to even respond to that. Do you all know what this means?! This means Natsu wants to kiss me! I feel like the happiest person in the world right now. Natsu Dragneel wants to kiss me!

"You want to kiss me?" I asked. Natsu looked away and smiled while blushing. Oh my Mavis! Natsu was thinking about kissing me, Lucy Heartphilla!

"I'm going to take that as a yes." I smiled. I just want to kiss this blushing idiot in front of me. I just need to tell him everything.

"And so what if I do want to?" Natsu looked back down at me. I think I take this as a yes. I would pull his face down to kiss him, but I'm a bit preoccupied right now. Natsu was super close to me and we are both naked.

"Are you too going to kiss now?" Happy flew next us. Natsu and I pulled each other close and began to scream. Happy just came out of nowhere and almost scared me half to death.

"You are interrupting something!" I hissed. Natsu and Happy both looked at me now. I guess I sounded a bit too eager. I just wanted to kiss Natsu so bad that I didn't even realize Happy was here.

"Was he now Lucy." Natsu smirked. What a little devil. I will certain remind myself to get back at Natsu later. Happy giggled as pointed at me and Natsu.

"You like each other!" Happy sighed as he sunk into the water with us.

"Yes we do." I sighed as I leaned my head into Natsu's bare chest. Wait, bare chest? I have no realized I am sharing yet another naked embrace with Natsu Dragneel, and he was perfectly fine with it. Happy and Natsu started to whisper to each other, something about butts?

"I need your help with something." I said aloud. Natsu and Happy looked at me. I need them to get my revenge, I need the extra help! How in the world was I suppose to get back at Gajeel with his super hearing and all?!

"With what?" Natsu asked.

"I want to get revenge on Gajeel, Jellal, Cana and Levy-chan!" I cackled. I probably looked a bit crazy right now. I kind of feel like Juvia when she wants alone time with her Gray-sama.

"I'm in!" Happy chimed. Natsu hummed and looked up.

"Why should I help you Luce?" Natsu asked. So Natsu wanted to play this game, well two can play at that game.

"Because I need your help." I put on my best puppy face. Natsu wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me closer.

"I'd do anything for Lucy!" Natsu bit the top of my ear. I pulled back a little and stuck my tongue out at him.

"You better watch out Lucy," Natsu came closer to my face. "I might just bite your tongue off." Okay, that was a bit uncalled for. I don't want a repeat of last time.

"Can you stop ruining my ears and eyes please." Happy cried. Oh come on. I just want to have some alone time with Natsu, without getting interrupted.

"Right, back to the revenge!" I cackled. Happy and Natsu nodded as we started to get out of the bath. I was just about to leave the tub until I noticed I was completely naked with no cover. Why do I always forget I'm naked?! I feel like Grays stripping habit is catching on to me!

"Get me a towel and clothes please!" I yelped as I jumped back into the water. Natsu quickly scrambled over to this huge wardrobe and pulled out a few things. Natsu came back with a towel around his waist and some clothes in his hands.

"I think you should pick the red one." Natsu handed me the red one. Natsu wasn't really giving me a choice was he? The dress was a little bit short but not too short. It has a little bit of fluff at the bottom and the wrists. Natsu turned around and started to dress himself, of course I looked away.

"Do not even think about peeking Natsu." I grumbled as I dried my body off. I quickly slipped on some undergarments and the dress. The dress had ties on the back that I couldn't quite get too, looks like Natsu is needed now.

"Need help?" Natsu came up behind me. I nodded. How did he know I needed help? That seemed a little bit weird.

"If you're wondering how I knew," Natsu tied the last one. "It's a mate thing." Oh great, another mate thing. I feel like I'm going to hear this more often then I want to.

"Let's go!" Natsu cheered. I turned around and looked at Natsu. Natsu was actually wearing clothes. Natsu wore some big pants with some kind of black vest, except it was open. Natsu had his scarf wrapped around his neck instead of his forehead. Natsu will never just cover up we will he?

"Yeah!" I started to walk past Natsu 'till I felt something grab my arm. Natsu pulled me in front of him. Did he need something? Natsu started to play with my hair for awhile, he looked worried.

"Something's missing." Natsu mumbled. Missing? I don't remember losing anything.

"What is it Natsu?" I asked. Natsu looked a bit confused himself. Happy came over to us and sat on Natsu's shoulder.

"I don't see anything missing Natsu." Happy looked me up and down. Natsu hummed as he also looked me up and down.

"You go on ahead without us Happy." Natsu said. Happy nodded as he flew to the door but stopped.

"Where are we meeting?" Happy asked. That's a good question. Maybe we should get Gajeel and Levy first. Yeah, I'm going to take those stupid piercings out of Gajeel's face and hide them. Gajeel and Jellal will be in the no eyebrow club! This is a great idea, perfect!

"Meet us at Gajeel and Levy's door." I grinned.

"Aye sir!" Happy beamed as he flew out the door. Now that Happy left the room, Natsu and I were alone. Why did Natsu want Happy to go before us?

"I know what's missing!" Natsu snapped his fingers. I looked up to Natsu quickly and snapped out of my thoughts.

"What is it?" I asked. Natsu put his hand in his pocket and started to search for something. I didn't even realize his pants had pockets. Natsu smiled as he pulled out a red ribbon. It looked really familiar, where had I seen that before.

"I've kept this for a really long time." Natsu smiled as he began to touch my hair. Who knew Natsu how to do hair, not me. Natsu moved his hands through my hair as he started to put up my hair in a side pony tail, my signature duo. What did Natsu mean by he's kept it for a really long time?

"I've kept this since the day we met." Natsu smiled as he put his hands on both of my shoulders. I don't even know what to say, he kept it. I thought I lost it, but no. Natsu kept it all this time, I didn't even know about it. I felt something wet on my cheeks, it was tears. I was so happy, Natsu showed so much care for me without me even knowing it.

"I thought you burned it away with all my other clothes." I smiled. Natsu wiped away a couple of my tears as he smiled at me.

"I like to keep things from moments that are special to me." Natsu grinned. Who knew Natsu was such a sweet heart, I sure didn't. Well that's a lie, Natsu was always a sweet heart even in the beginning.

"That's so sweet." I wiped away the rest of my tears. I just wanted to cry tears of joy, I'm such a cry baby. Natsu smiled as he leaned down, and looked into my eyes.

"I'm sure now." Natsu knocked foreheads with me. Sure for what? What was he unsure about before.

"What is it Natsu?" I asked. Natsu closed his eyes as he took in a deep breath. Was this going to be a confession? If it was, then I think I could just cry endlessly and kiss Natsu like no tomorrow.

"I'm sure that you also love me too." Natsu winked at me as he leaned down quickly. Natsu took the back of my head and pressed our lips together. Natsu was kissing me, no interruptions this time. Natsu was actually kissing me. I took my hands and brought them up to his hair and started to thrift through his soft pink locks.

Suddenly Natsu licked the bottom of my lip which took me by surprise. I gasped as Natsu stuck his tongue into my mouth and started to play with my tongue. How in the world did he even know how to do this? Natsu pulled back while panting a little, with a string of saliva following. I quickly whipped away the saliva and covered my face.

"That was," I looked back up. "Amazing." I was giggling like Erza when she sees cake. I just wanted to kiss him over and over again. Natsu also tasted like something, smoke and cinnamon. I kind of like that combination, it's quite interesting actually.

"It really was." Natsu cackled as he lifted me up and twirled me around. Natsu put me down as he kissed me a bit rougher this time. I pulled back for need of air as I laughed. This like a dream come true.

"Was that like tonsil hockey?" Natsu chuckled. Great, I bet Cana taught that one to him. I laughed as I pulled onto Natsu's hand and went towards the door.

"Happy's waiting for us." I giggled as I opened the door. Natsu gripped my hand harder as he winked at me and pulled me ahead.

"Lucy's Revenge Mission is now active!" Natsu cackled. I really did fall for a keeper didn't I? Anyways, on to Gajeel being eyebrow less!
