Holy fucking cow.

Over ten reviews last chapter?!

Oh my. I'm blushing.

Natsu could feel the anxiety practically pouring out of Lucy's skin.

He squeezed her hand in assurance, before twisting the golden knob and opening the door.

Igneel sat in his seat behind his desk, his back perfectly straight and hands folded neatly on top of the wooden surface. "Natsu."

He raised an eyebrow at Lucy's appearence but kept quiet.

"Grandpa - " Natsu stopped himself at Igneel's glare. "I-I mean, Dad." He greeted, pulling Lucy with him to the two red seats in front of Igneel.

Lucy's nervousness increased tenfold when Natsu's hand slipped away from hers as they sat down.

"I kept the deal," Natsu stated firmly. "I've got a fiancée, and now you'll quit bothering me."

"I will be the judge of that..." Igneel trailed off before adding one more statement. "Pinky."

"WE WENT OVER THIS!" Natsu's furious screams were ignored as Igneel's onyx eyes landed on a fidgeting Lucy.

"What's your name, my dear?" His stern and slightly teasing voice he used on Natsu had morphed into something that was gentle and kind.

"L-Lucy Heartfilia, your majesty." Lucy whispered.

Igneel blinked. "Heartfilia, huh..." His voice died down at the end of his sentence, and his eyes glazed slightly, as if thinking about something. He soon snapped out of it. "Lucy-san, do you honestly care about my idiot son?" Igneel tipped his head to a fuming Natsu.

Lucy smiled a little at his humorous jab and nodded. "I'm surprised that he even knows what marriage is with that dense brain of his, but I can say that I really do care for him."

"And you have no objections of getting married?"

"Not at all."

"Well then..." Igneel's somewhat stiff and straight posture relaxed as he leaned back in his seat. He ran a hand through his spiky red hair. "I suppose the whole thing is sealed, isn't it."

Natsu started to jump in his seat. "You mean..."

Igneel grinned. "Yes, Natsu. You get your wish. No more princesses."

"YES!" Natsu whooped, hopping out of his seat. "C'mon Luce, cheer with me!" He yelled, grabbing a surprised Lucy's wrists and pulling her onto her feet.

"Hey - stupid Natsu!" Lucy yelped as he twirled her around carelessly. But at the same time, she could feel herself start to smile and laugh along with him.

An hour later, the whole palace was frantic as almost the whole staff came at different times to greet their future queen.

Lucy's face was completely flushed through the whole time, especially when a nice, polite raven haired man came up and brushed his lips against the back of her hand.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, my Lady." He hummed.

Lucy turned bright red. "I-It's Lucy. My name is Lucy."

"Gray Fullbuster at your service."

"Oi, get your own wife," Natsu snarled, stomping up to them and grabbing the back of Gray's collar.

The cool, gentleman facade broke away as soon as Natsu did this, and soon Gray was snarling as he kicked his legs back and shoved Natsu in the gut.

Lucy sweatdropped as the two started to shout lame insults and threw punches at each other.

"A-Are they always like this?" Lucy muttered to herself.

"Indeed."

The blond girl nearly screamed at the sudden voice, and hopping around, she was surprised and slightly wary to see a beautiful redhead and brunette standing behind her.

The redhead had an impressive set of armor on, which made Lucy sweatdrop. Underneath it was a blue skirt that touched the tops of her knees, and gleaming brown boots on her feet.

"I am Erza Scarlet, the head swordsman. I am within your beck and call, your highness." She stated so seriously and with a mature voice, although Lucy was pretty sure she couldn't have been older than her.

"Just Lucy is fine, Erza. I'm your friend, not your ruler." Lucy said softly, giving her a small smile.

Straightening, the stoic and serious look did not once leave her face. "You're right. I apologize. Please, hit me." She suddenly said, thrusting her metal clad arm into Lucy's face.

"I'm not going to hit you!" Lucy protested.

"Evergreen," the brunette suddenly huffed, flicking a brown lock of wavy hair out of her eyes. "Seamstress, dressmaker, all that."

"N-Nice to meet you," Lucy stuttered, finally managing to wiggle away from Erza's firm pleas of 'hit me!'.

Suddenly, Evergreen's glasses seemed to flash as she zoomed over and took out a measuring tape.

"What are you - "

"Thirty-four point seven inches," Evergreen muttered under her breath while wrapping the tape around Lucy's waist, ignoring her protests. "Stand still before I rip your legs out of their sockets!" Evergreen snapped.

Paling at the scary woman, Lucy stiffened immediately.

"Forty-two point two inches for bust," Evergreen continued to talk to herself, somehow wrapping the tape around Lucy's chest and writing the measurements down on a pink notepad.

"Hips are thirty-seven inches." Evergreen scribbled numbers after numbers down on her pink notepad, until finally she pulled away.

"Impressive," Evergreen muttered, as if reluctant for praising Lucy. "Your measurements are incredible."

Lucy reddened and she twiddled her thumbs.

"OI! MY BEER!"

The sudden yell within the giant hall echoed around the marble walls and only increased the volume.

Lucy watched with slightly horror and fascination as a busty brunette who was only wearing a blue bikini top and a frilly white and black skirt was wrestling with a man who had a weird hairstyle.

"Give it back, Wakaba!" The girl shouted, yanking the barrel out of the man's grip.

"You've already had two today, and it's barely noon!" Wakaba yelled.

Lucy's eyes widened. Surely that barrel did not contain alcohal? And that girl didn't look that older than her! Wasn't that illegal?

"So, watcha think Luce?"

Lucy raised her eyes to see a grinning Natsu as he threw a tanned arm over her shoulders.

"What do you mean?"

Natsu chuckled and waved carelessly around him. "Us. My family."

"Well..." Lucy trailed off. She stared around her. The staff were all yelling and screaming at some point, the main two being Gray and Erza. The latter trying to stop the major brawl while the former was trying to encourage it. Lucy could hear glass shattering and at one point, a slap so loud it rang through the air.

"You guys are crazy," Lucy laughed breathlessly, but still a grin crept onto her face.

Natsu smirked and rubbed her shoulder while pulling him into his side. "I know."
