"Luce. . . yo. . . Lucy. . . LUCILLE HEARTFILIA! IT IS MORNIN! WHY ARE YOU SLEEPING! IT IS MOOOORNING! The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and whew your teeth need brushing! Damn, what the hell did you-OW WHAT THE HELL? WHY'D YOU HIT ME, LUCE!?" It is early, and I don't get up early. I get up last minute, run the few blocks to school, and just make it before the bell. Whoever set my alarm and thought it was going to be funny is going to die, this is NOT the way I will spend my Wednesday morning. THAT was not in the plan of Wednesday morning. The plans for Wednesday morning is to sleep as long as possible. I am off schedule.
"You talk in your sleep, you know that?" That was not the sound of an alarm clock. That was the sound of a human being. My eyes snapped open to be met with a set of onyx eyes and a head of pink hair.
"AHH!" I snapped out bed, hitting my head on my nightstand. "SHIT! Why are you here Natsu? You ruined all plans I had for Wednesday morning."
"Do these plans involve sleeping as long as possible?" He asked, picking up a small telescope figurine that I had on my dresser. I rolled my eyes, and hugged my pillow under my head.
"Yeah, how'd you know?" I said while closing my eyes.
"You talk in your sleep. You also sleep with one eye half open and you snore ever so softly. Oh did I mention that you drool?" I gripped my pillow tighter and tighter as he babbled and babbled, as my face grew redder and redder, and then I threw my pillow at him.
"YOU IDIOT! WHY THE HELL ARE YOU HERE ANYWAY!?" I asked getting up from bed.
"Came to walk you to school. Duh."
"You can walk yourself out of my apartment and wait outside if you wanna walk with me to school. Jeez. Did you at least use the door this time?" I asked, recalling yesterday's visit.
"The door? Oh that was locked." I walked to my dresser and felt his onyx eyes follow as he talked. Respectful.
"So you went through the window?" I pulled out a blue v-neck and black sweatpants from the middle drawer of my dresser.
"You guessed it."
I sighed. "God. How could I have ever thought in a million years that you, Natsu Dragneel, could be in anyway cool?"
He quirked a brow, obviously intrigued. "So you think I'm cool?" He wiggled his eyebrows making it hard to keep at straight face.
"Thought." I corrected. Although it seemed that he didn't hear or just decided to ignore it because he opened up my window and stuck his head out as far as he could without falling. "YOU HEAR THAT MAGNOLIA? LUCY HEARTFILLIA THINKS, I, NATSU DRAGNEEL, IS COOL, CUTE, AND DAMN RIGHT SEXY!" He yelled, making everybody within hearing distance, even the jerks in the boat, stopped to look. Magnolia is busy, even in the morning.
"NATSU YOU IDIOT!" I smacked him upside the head. "DON'T TELL INNOCENT PEOPLE LIES!"
"Aw. I was just playin Luce. Don't gotta be so mean about it." He said rubbing the sore spot on his head. "Hurry up and get dressed. I wanna get there early so I can get there before Ice-prick." Only then did I look at the clock. It was 6:30 a.m. IT WAS 6:30 A.M.!
I glared at Natsu. "YOU WOKE ME UP AT SIX IN THE FUCKING MORNING!?"
"Well yeah. I had to leave super early to get here too. I woke up at 5." He grinned, making my anger melt away. I hated that. He was just to, I don't know... Chipper, I guess, to be mad at. It pisses me off. Although, the gesture was sweet. He woke up so early to walk me to school.
"Fine, but if you ever wake me up before 7, expect to see stars." I said flatly. His grinned widened, which I thought wasn't possible.
"You really like stars, don't ya? He asked.
" Yeah, how'd ya know?"
"Well your room gives it away. You have a lot of things that point to astonomy. Like the telescope figureine and the zodiac symbols you scractched into the top of your dresser. It's pretty obvious, Luce." I laughed. I don't really know why, nothing he said striked me as funny, but i just sorta felt like it. It was the first time some noticed that. Sure the figurienes were kind of obvious, but not even Erza and Levy noticed the zodiac signs. I smiled.
"Yeah. I've loved the stars since I was little. I have a telescope in my closet. Me and my mom used to go stargazing." I tried not to look upset when I talked about my mom. I'm glad he didn't noticed. He smiled kindly, an expression that I haven't seen him wear. Sure, I've seen him smile plenty of times during these few days, but this smile was different. I can't really place a finger on it, so I dismissed the thought.
"I guess we'll have to go stargazing sometime, huh? I've never been." He then grinned and pushed me towards the bathroom. "Hurry and get ready. We gotta go or Ice-Princess will get there before us. Don't forget to brush your teeth. Your breath reeks." I was going to turn and scold him for it, but he already had me in the bathroom before he shut the door and ran down from the door. I could hear him running down the stairs and opening the fridge. The bastard was planning to eat everything. Jerk. But regardless, I got ready and walked out of the bathroom and back into my bedroom. It was now 6:45. I lazily grabbed my bag and slung it over my shoulder and walked to the kitchen.
Sure enough, Natsu was sitting at the table eating an egg. I was about to yell at him, when I noticed the plate next to him. I smiled as did he when he noticed me standing there. "Gonna eat, Luce? Or are you just gonna stand there and smile like an idiot?"
I scoffed and sat beside him. "Says the smiling idiot." I attempted to look annoyed, but a smile crept across my lips. "Thanks." I examined the egg. I didn't peg Natsu as the cooking type. It smelled edible, but so did poisonous mushrooms. It looked edible, like poisonous mushrooms. I cut a piece with my fork and held it at eye level. It even looked edible, but so does poisonous mushrooms. Natsu took my fork and shoved the bite into my mouth.
"Jeez Luce. Just eat the damn thing! It ain't gonna kill ya!" I glared and snatched my fork from his hand and chewed. I smiled. It tasted great, but so did poisonous mushrooms.
"It's good. Where'd you learn to cook?" I asked as I shoved in another bite. He smiled and chuckled.
"I can cook two things. The Natsu Dragneel's Infamous Egg. And Natsu Dragneel's Everything But the Kitchen Sink Sundae. But since you don't have ice cream, I had to make eggs for breakfast." I laughed before I realized what he said.
"I have ice cream. . . I just bought some a few days ago." He rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly. "Natsu..."
"Weeeelll... I kind of ate most of it while I waited for you to get up." I glared at him. He bolted up from his seat and ran out the door. "We gotta go Luce! We aren't gonna beat the Popsicle!"
