When Lucy woke up the next morning, she wasn't surprised she had a killer headache nor was she surprised she was still in the clothes from the night before. She was grateful for whoever brought her home to be kind enough to lay a trash bin next to her bed and leave a glass of water and painkillers beside her on her nightstand. She was relieved to find out she had made it home and did not end up in someone's bed and she was very grateful she didn't throw up over herself or even in general.
Lucy had a ritual she swore by after a night of drinking. She loved to soak in a bathtub full of scorching hot water, chug bottles of water and Gatorade, eat a shit ton of greasy food, and then sleep all day till she had to do it all over again.
She barely remembered the night prior. She kind of blacked out after she started to dance on top of the table with Cana and all she remembered was seeing Natsu's heated glares all night as she drank for free all night! Thanks to Gray and thanks to many generous patrons who wanted to buy her drinks and she wondered if her girlfriends were safe and sound, too.
So after her nice relaxing bath, Lucy had tossed on a pair of short tight boy shorts that ate her ass more than anyone had ever and a tight fitted t-shirt she had cut apart to make it cropped. She went to Levy's room first to see if she was alive or awake and when she didn't hear a response from the other side she was surprised to see the room empty. But knowing Levy, she probably was in class as she now went over to Cana's room. Cana of course was in her bedroom but was passed out drunk, the entire place stinking of liquor. Erza had to be in class since it was nearly two in the afternoon and Mirajane wasn't around for her to question.
Lucy refilled her emotional support water bottle before she ventured back upstairs, moaning in pain and whining about wanting to order something for her poor stomach to soak up last night festivities.
She scrolled through her phone to see the drunk messages she got in their sorority group chat, mainly nonsense and to see where everyone was. She even saw the couple from Hibiki who seemed like he was trying to hit her up for a late night booty call at four in the morning but clearly she wasn't conscious to respond. She was more than disappointed to see Natsu hadn't messaged her or checked in to see if she was fine and it made her huff in annoyance.
She debated if she should message him first and she fought with herself for an hour as she tossed and turned in her own bed, trying to force herself to fall asleep but she was hungry and nobody was around!
Throwing her blanket off her and slipping on her beat up white sneakers, Lucy got out of bed to walk across the street to the DT house. Last time she came here she was rampaging through and got tied up. She wondered if they would do the same if she just walked in but she wasn't looking for blood this time, she was just hangry and hungover.
Lucy walked into the house and was immediately greeted by the pledges who were sitting around in the living room. She could see how they all tensed when they saw her and she rolled her eyes.
"I'm not going to hurt you." She scoffed. "Is Natsu or Gray around?"
"They're both still asleep."
"Still?" Lucy frowned as she walked past them to go towards the stairs. She ignored the boys who eye-fucked her and the ones who were on guard before she disappeared upstairs, her nose crinkling in disgust as she could just smell the musk. It smelt like cheap beer and cum as she tried to remember which room was theirs again as she peeked into a familiar looking room. She only knew this was their room by the poorly glued door frame that looked like someone mowed through it and that someone happened to be her big.
When she looked into the messy room, she only noticed Gray faced down in his bed naked. His bare ass was a nice surprise but Natsu wasn't around making her frown.
It made her wonder if he went home with someone last night? Well that was kind of shitty of him to do. So he left her at the bar and fucked someone else. She kind of felt betrayed as she crossed her arms and fumed.
"I always seem to find you like this."
Turning to see who had discovered her, she was pleased to see her favorite frat boy. And in the same way she met him: naked and wet.
"You look like Lola from Space Jam. It's kinda hot."
"What a nice surprise," her eyes trailed the bead of water that dripped between his pecs and down his torso. "I was wondering where you were."
"You lookin' for me?" He smirked, crossing his arms across his chest as he leaned against the wall. "What could you possibly want from me, Miss Heartfillia?"
"A lot, actually."
"Care to educate me?"
Lucy bit down on her bottom lip as she felt shy all of a sudden. She was extremely turned on and basking in the sight in front of her which was dripping wet Natsu.
"I—I," she cleared her throat, cursing herself for her stutter. "Want to go to the cafe with me?"
Natsu just blinked, confused as he thought this was going somewhere but he just shook his head, a soft chuckle coming out of his lips. "Sure. Let me get dressed."
"I'll meet ya downstairs."
"What? Don't want to stay and watch?" He teased. She could tell by his tone he was only half-serious as she saw him hold his towel out to cover his bottom half but she knew on the other side his treasure was out in the open.
Giggling she knew if Gray woke up right now he would be in for a nice treat.
"Can't have dessert before your meal," she only winked before she was walking down the hall. She had a smile to her lips as she heard his laugh, making her way down the stairs once more to see the boys hadn't moved. She saw some of the stiffen and rise thinking it was a brother but she waved them off as she made her way to the kitchen of the home. She dug in their messy unorganized fridge that had expired leftovers and cheese and beer. She frowned, wondering what the hell these boys survived off as she stole a water bottle of her own. She turned around mid-sip to see Laxus, Freed, and Bixslow coming in and from the look of their attire they just got off class.
"Hello boys," she offered a smile and wave, making them quirk a brow at her. "Good day so far?"
"Don't you ever learn your lesson?" Laxus smirked as he came over to where she was to open the fridge. "It's like you want to be taken for ransom."
"Over it." Lucy scoffed, stepping out the way for the male to pull a beer out and crack it open. "Just waiting on Natsu so we could go eat."
"Didn't realize you and Natsu were so chummy."
"That guy knows how to reel em in." Bixslow snickered as Laxus tossed him a can.
"Surprised he's keeping this one." Freed was tapping away on his phone.
Lucy scoffed, hands on her hip and slightly offended. "Excuse you, Natsu and I are friends."
"Yeah, right," Laxus snorted while he was pulling out a hot pocket from the freezer. "Friends who fuck."
Lucy rolled her eyes, walking away from the trio who continued to make comments about her and said manic as it was starting to irritate her. She came over to the couch where the boys were and plopped down in between two pledges making them flinch and scoot over, seeing the fuming blonde.
"Are you feeling better, Lucy?" A dark-haired one asked.
She looked at the cute freshman across from her and tried to remember what his name was but she just offered a smile his way. "I am. Thanks for asking. And your name?"
"Romeo," he cleared his throat, offering a hand her way.
Lucy reached for it and grasped it gently. She could see the blush that spread across his cheek and she only giggled, letting go of his larger hand.
Hearing the stomping of feet descending from the stairs, Lucy stood up to see Natsu's grinning face. She offered a smile right back as she went over to where he was. "Your brothers are assholes."
"Tell me something I don't know," he snorted, ruffling his odd colored locks. "Let's go, Lola."
"Lola?" Lucy furrowed her brows, a slight frown to her lips as he called her someone else's name.
"Yeah, cause you look like Lola from Space Jam."
"The bunny?"
"Yeah," he snickered as his eyes looked her up and down. "You're a lot hotter though."
The silent nods and agreements came from the boys on the couch and Lucy only rolled her eyes, a smile coming to her lips. "I guess I'll take the compliment." She made her way to the doorway as Natsu dapped up the boys on the couch. "Let's go, I'm hungry and hungover."
"I bet you are," Natsu laughed lightly as he made his way over to where she was. "You were fuckin' blacked out last night."
"It's easy when you have an unlimited supply of drinks handed your way." Lucy stuck her tongue out.
It was Natsu's turn to roll his eyes as the two ventured up the street to campus. The usual crowd of students going in and out of buildings were present and since it was Friday, it was a lot more quiet as most people were back in their rooms drinking to kickstart the weekend. The walk to the campus cafeteria was short, the two scanning their meal cards and going into the buffet style cafeteria where it was mostly deserted since it was nearing four in the afternoon. It didn't stop Lucy from going straight to the greasy trash the college offered as she plated fries, chicken tenders, and cup of fruit to feel a bit healthier. Natsu didn't seem to care what it was as he crowded his plate with anything and everything, finding himself at the drink station to help Lucy bring back a cup of water.
Soon they were seated in a booth all the way in the back as Lucy happily ate her fries, dipping them in a combination of ranch and ketchup as Natsu inhaled his plate.
"I honestly don't remember anything past the table dancing."
"You were a menace." Natsu said as he scraped his plate clean. "You were slurring and stumbling and spouting nonsense."
"You have to take that up with drunk Lucy when you see her cause I don't know her."
Natsu snickered, washing down the food with his drink. "You said some wild stuff last night."
"Did I?" She raised a curious brow as she picked at her fruit cup. "And what kind of wild stuff?"
Natsu debated if he should tell her or keep it under his belt for the future as he stared at her across the table. Even for someone who was hungover and trashed last night she was glowing and he considered himself a lucky man to be sitting across the table from her. But it also didn't help that he was pissed the fuck off last night because she wanted to be a bitch about it but he already forgave her because he was nice like that.
"Just wild stuff." He smiled, making her roll her eyes.
Natsu Dragneel is a winner and he will always be a winner.
Levy wasn't the type of girl who got sloppy drunk and went home with guys she's never met or will see again. She really wasn't the type to really go out in the first place unless she really had to. College changed that for her and a specific spunky blonde who peeled the layers she had grown around herself for protection. She was grateful in a way to finally be able to experience all things girly and slutty. She was starting to like it and living through her sisters who were passed around was somewhat entertaining as she learned about the latest dick on the menu.
So imagine her surprise when she wakes up in an unknown home in an unknown bed next to an unknown man. She could fucking scream her head off.
Levy didn't remember much from last night. She was a lightweight and she knew it. Gray was buying drinks and Lucy's endless patrons who were generously buying drinks for her and her friends tipped her off the edge. She was usually a two or three drinks type of gal but last night she was practically six or eight in. She didn't really remember.
She didn't even remember meeting this giant of a man who had longer hair than she did and more piercings than a jewelry stand. He was no doubt very handsome and hot in a dangerous way but the fact that she lost her virginity to this stranger had her pondering her entire existence. It's not like she was saving her virginity for anyone in particular but she wasn't going to just give it up as if it meant nothing because a girl's purity is liquid gold to most people. So what made her go home with this man and have sex with him? She definitely had to talk to Lucy about this as she scrambled to get her belongings together.
But as she was buttoning her shorts back up, the stranger started to stir making her entire body freeze and grow cold. What if this scary looking hot hunk of a man wanted to murder her?
"Don't ya think if I was going to murder you I would have done it last night?"
How was this man in her thoughts?
"Yer talkin' out loud!"
Levy could just feel the blush forming across her cheeks. She knew she had a scowl on her face and she only mustered enough courage to glare at him so she could show him she meant business. But he only scoffed and sat up, the sheet barely covering anything of him but his crotch that Levy was somehow interested in.
"Who are you?"
"I didn't think you were that drunk last night." His gruff voice sent shivers down her spine. "I assume you don't remember us having sex either?"
The blush on his cheeks were cute and honestly flattering. A man his size and his demeanor wasn't supposed to be blushing and so cute to someone like Levy.
But the strangest thing was that she wasn't afraid at all. She kind of liked seeing him that way and a part of her didn't want to leave him so soon. Something about him had to attract her and obviously the main was his looks but Levy wasn't that shallow of a gal.
"Do you want to grab some breakfast?"
Lucy was very much enjoying Natsu's company. He was warm, funny, flirtatious, and very good looking. There wasn't much about him she didn't like and she didn't mind the sexual tension between them nor the closeness he provided because it made her feel safe. He made her feel sleepy and she didn't know when but she fell asleep against him after they had returned from their little cafe date. She insisted it wasn't a date but Natsu declared it was pretty lame compared to the one they had yesterday and she invited him to watch another movie with her and he happily agreed.
So when she woke up tangled up with Natsu who was also snoring away in her ear, she was shocked to the core she was still clothed and alive.
Natsu kept his hands to himself as respectfully as he could. There were times he would bump and brush up against her but nothing crazy. He didn't hold her hand and he didn't try to touch her inappropriately but when there was a bit of alcohol in their systems it was like they were gravitating towards each other and his hands were always on her waist and his lips mere inches apart from hers.
She could have kissed him by now, many times actually. She could have even had him in bed if she truly wanted but something about playing with him was egging her on. She knew Natsu liked it and that's why he did it right back. She also knew if he really wanted to he could do the same exact thing.
But playing cat and mouse was a thrill and the thicker the sexual tension got, the better the taste would be when they finally got to cut into it.
So as she woke up from her mid-day nap, she felt Natsu draped over her and pressed against her backside as his not so soft snores rumbled in her ear. She definitely felt his hard-on poking at her ass and she knew he did this on purpose before he passed out. She didn't even know when they did. They were in the middle of watching Forest Gump and now her TV was back to the home screen and it was dark outside.
Lucy struggled to shift in her full size mattress and she grabbed her phone, blinking away her sleep and trying to adjust to the brightness as she looked at the time. It was nearly eight in the evening and she had many messages from her sisters and a couple from Gray. Levy had messaged her asking where she was a couple hours ago and then called her twice but it seems like she had given up. The sorority group chat was blooming minutes before, sisters asking who is going out and where. Apparently there was a party the Blue Phi's were hosting tonight and the girls were invited.
Lucy placed her phone down and let out a small whine, stretching her body as she untangled herself from this heater. Natsu didn't like the shifting and he reached for her, trying to reel her back in as she wiggled around. A soft laugh escaped her lips when Natsu gripped her waist and dragged her body against his again, a grunt rumbling from his throat.
"Quit movin'." He sounded irritated.
"Quit trying to trap me." She countered, the weight of his leg pressing her legs down and his arms suffocating.
"Where you tryna sneak off to anyways?" He murmured, voice low and deep from his drowsiness. "I'm not ready to get up."
"It's eight." She finally got a small pocket to pop her head out of.
Natsu was extremely warm for some reason and while she loved the warmth, Lucy happened to be a heavy breather and sometimes she felt like she was in a sauna when trapped under him. She was kind of afraid to see what sex with him would be like if they got heated. Natsu could probably peel the wallpaper off the walls and burn holes into the bedsheets if he really tried.
Natsu only produced a grunt but never moved or even opened his eyes, body firm and tight to keep her in place. Lucy didn't know if she liked it or not. She couldn't complain, this was the most intimate she's been with anyone in a while. Cuddling just happened to be an extreme sport when it came to someone as hot as Natsu. Pun intended.
The darkness in the room made it hard to see his face but Lucy could somewhat see the outline of it. She moved her hands up his chest, trying to feel for something or see if she could find an opening to move out of his grasp but his chuckling got her distracted.
"What you tryna do?"
The deepness in his voice sent shivers down her spine and she knew she was blushing but she was grateful he couldn't see it.
"I'm trying to get out of your death grip," she managed to hiss out, fighting with him as he started to tighten his grip. "I didn't take you for a cuddler."
"I can be anything you want, baby," Natsu chuckled when he felt her shiver under his hold and her squirming got him in a playful mood. Now, he was definitely up and his hard on was giving him a harsh greeting. "Quit squirmin' around."
"You're making it hard for me to breathe!" She finally got him to untangle his arms around her shoulders as she tossed the blanket off her body. She felt she was taking in a deep breath of fresh air as she sighed, feeling her cheeks grow hot. "Why are you so hot?"
"Thanks," he purred and she could feel his hand tracing shapes on her hip.
Lucy rolled her eyes, sitting up in bed. "I meant literally. Your body heat is crazy."
"Maybe because I have a fire breathing dragon living inside of me."
"Grow up." Lucy leaned over to flick on her lamp on her nightstand. She blinked into the brightness and she turned to see Natsu doing the same, a grimace on his face. "I don't even remember falling asleep."
"Me neither," he yawned, stretching his arms above him as his joints popped. "But that was much needed."
"Are you going out tonight?" Lucy asked as she reached for her phone once more. She flipped through the messages her sisters were going on about, asking to borrow this or who is grabbing the pregame bottle and so on.
"I don't know," Natsu's yawn was contagious as she began to yawn. "Gray was pestering me about going to Lambda Scale's thing." He was scrolling through his phone. "His cousin's in LS."
"Really? Who?" Lucy turned to face him. She laid down on her stomach to get more comfortable as Natsu laid flat on his back, one leg bent and his head elevated from her many pillows she owned. He quirked a brow at her, seeing her generous breasts that were pressed against her and he wondered if he could fit one of her large tits in his mouth.
"His name is Lyon. LS is one of the fraternities that are co-ed."
"So girls are part of it too?"
"Yeah, I think it's because they couldn't get enough people to join so they let anybody join," he snickered, eyes going from her figure to his phone.
"But they're an honors fraternity aren't they? While we're more social?"
"Sure, same shit," Natsu grumbled as he shot Gray a text telling him to fuck off. "You want to come?"
"I have my own thing tonight," she winked, sitting back up on her knees. Natsu didn't even hide the fact he was staring at her body as she stretched, her shirt running up her body to show her flat stomach. "Blue Phi is throwing a party and they invited us."
Natsu rolled his eyes at this, placing his phone on his chest to give her his undivided attention just so she knew he was serious. "They're a bunch of fucking pretty boy fucks. Nothing about them is fun or appealing in my opinion."
"Well, good thing you're not their target audience." Lucy giggled at his scowl. "Besides, Hibiki and I go way back. We're family friends."
"Is that why he was pushing up against you last night?"
"Yeah, we might have hooked up once or twice." She had a sly smile on her face as she started to slide off her bed.
She pretended not to see the look of betrayal on Natsu's face or the disgusted one he produced as he gawked at her walking figure.
"Really? Hibiki?" He sounded disgusted. "Would have much rather you gone out with Sting."
"Hibiki is two years older than me. Like I said, family friends and when you're in high school and sleeping with a college guy the appeal is there." She shrugged, making Natsu's scowl even deeper. "But that was many years ago."
"How long we talkin'?" His gruff voice was ignored.
"Three? Four?" She hummed, planting her hand on her hip as she put one against her chin to think. "Anyways, it doesn't matter. That was a long time ago and I grew out of him many years prior."
Natsu scoffed, jumping off her bed to plant his feet on the floor. He was looking for his shoes as he felt the rage inside his body bloom. He didn't know why but he was angry that stupid pretty boy had his hands on her before. The images of her in his head were slowly getting swallowed by the smiling face of that idiot he wanted to pummel to the ground. The way he was pressed against her last night at the pregame and how she was giggling made him feel sour. And now he just wanted to go fuck Hibiki up just for knowing her before he did.
But how could he when they've only known each other for about two weeks? It's not like they were anything nor did anything, ever. He doesn't have the right to feel this way but he did and it was pissing him off. Does this make him the crazy one?
"Are you jealous?"
"No," he lied. "I gotta go."
"Natsu," she stepped in front of him, a frown on her lips. "Are you seriously mad?"
"I told you I'm not," he tried to move out her way but she blocked him again. "Lucy, I gotta go."
"What's the rush?" She frowned, arms crossed against her chest. "Your mood changed so suddenly after I talked about Hibiki."
"I don't care," he walked around her to come towards her door but Lucy grabbed the back of his shirt to stop him.
"Natsu, I told you, this was a long time ago."
"And I told you I'm fine."
Lucy rolled her eyes, pulling him closer to her as he stood over her. "If you could, you most definitely would have burst into flames." She said, a small smile on her lips. The corners of his lips twitched but the feeling of his stomach turning had him down. He just wanted to go over to his house and punch Gray in the face. "You know you're cute when you're jealous."
"I'm not jealous!" He tried to pull away from her but her grip tightened. "I don't care what you used to do but that doesn't mean I have to like it."
"Whatever sour puss."
"Do what you want," he pulled his shirt out of her grip, taking a step back from her. "I ain't gonna stop you."
"Who said there is something for you to stop?" She countered, head lolled as he glared at her. "You're making it such a big deal. We haven't even seen each other till recently. And for someone who doesn't care, you seem pretty mad and jealous—"
"Shut up, I'm not jealous!" He raised his voice at her and it caught both of them off guard. Natsu immediately regretted it as soon as he saw the look on her face and he opened his mouth to apologize but she pushed him towards her door.
"Get out!"
"Luce, I—"
"I don't want to hear it!" She raised her voice, red to the face as she opened her door to shove him out. Natsu slammed against the wall and turned to look at her, eyes wide and mouth open.
"Lucy, I'm sorry—"
"You want to be a fucking asshole and act like a jealous boyfriend over a fucking hookup that happened four years ago before we even knew each other than you can kick rocks!"
Sisters who heard the commotion opened their doors and emerged from places to peek at the drama, noticing Natsu standing out in the hallway with his mouth ajar and a red-faced Lucy.
"It's not like that, Lucy. I shouldn't have raised my voice. You're right, I just—"
"At least Hibiki never fucking raised his voice at me!" She countered, anger spilling out of her words as Natsu reeled back to look at her offended. "You get to do what you want but as soon as I have someone looking my way or finding any interest in me suddenly it's Natsu to the rescue? You're just a fucking cock block!" She jabbed her finger into his chest.
Natsu stood up straighter, his jaw clenched as he looked down at her. "A fucking cock block? Who the fuck are you trying to sleep with?"
"Why? So you can terrorize them and me because of your raging jealousy? I didn't think it was normal for friends to be jealous of potential lovers." She crossed her arms across her chest, huffing in annoyance. "If you want to be friends then act like a friend. Green is not your best color!"
"Fine!" He snapped, leaning in close to her face to growl. Their heated eye contact was fierce and those who watched were on the edge as they chewed their nails and gripped the doorframe to see if they would just start ripping their clothes off. "Do what you want!"
He started to stomp down the hall as Lucy growled, cupping her hands to her mouth. "Have fun fucking bitches!"
Natsu turned around, flipping her the bird as he kept walking away. "Have fun with those pretty boy fuckfaces! Make sure you wrap it up so you don't catch an STD! Not like they'll be interested in you afterwards!"
The loud slam of the door was hard enough it shook the home of the Zeta's. Lucy only saw red as her sisters turned to look at the blonde huffing and puffing. Lucy was livid. She wanted to scream and break things so that's what she did. She let out a roar that could rival dragons and she was stomping into her room, throwing her stuffed animals, books, and even her make up. Concerned sisters were at her door, watching her in fear and worry as they didn't know if they should stop her or just let her anger out. They let the best person they knew who would be able to handle a situation like this and allowed Erza to walk into her room, seeing how Erza dodged the candle that went flying towards her.
The scarlet sister was trained in more ways than one where she had a keen eye for attacks and a body for battle. She was able to grab the blonde and pin her against the floor in no time, the woman underneath her cursing up a storm and thrashing around like a fish out of water.
Soon, she was able to cool down as Erza waited patiently and then the water works happened. Lucy was then surrounded by the sisters who gave her hugs and words of encouragement, letting her know she wasn't wrong in the fight and fuck that dumbass because he was not worth her tears.
But Lucy wasn't crying because she was upset and she sure as hell wasn't weak enough to shed tears for some frat boy she's only known for two weeks. She was crying because she was angry. She hated that she spilled tears whenever she got angry because daddy made her sad a lot when she was growing up and crying everytime she felt sad got exhausting. So she developed into a woman who cried when she got angry because daddy now made her more angry than sad and her tears were spilling out of her like someone turned on the faucet that was harder to shut off.
Lucy wanted to get dressed up and be a fucking whore and make out with Hibiki and his brothers to get back at Natsu but she felt sick. She knew she shouldn't do that so she did what was her next best option: stay home and get wasted.
Lucky for her, none of her sisters pressured her too much on coming out and soothed her poor broken self as they offered drinks her way and Levy offered to stay back and cuddle with her. Lucy had insisted Erza didn't have to stay home but she did encourage a little slap around in her honor and her big sister was more than happy to accept as she went to go get dressed. Mirajane made her a nice big bowl of soup and Cana gave her some cheap wine she had somewhere lying around. Some of her sisters promised to get back at the DT brother and others said they'll go after Blue Phi for her.
Lucy was grateful for the people she had in her life and she didn't think she could get so heated with Natsu of all people. What the fuck was his problem? But it's not like he knew she had authority issues and hated when people raised their voices at her. He didn't know that much about her but that was even bigger of a reason on why he shouldn't have even raised his voice at her.
Finishing the rest of the wine bottle, Lucy tossed it in her trash bin and let out a burp, a frustration groan flying out of her lips. Levy only rubbed her back in sympathy, hoping it would help the blonde who wouldn't shut the fuck up.
"Maybe I just need to get laid, Levy," Lucy slurred. She laid on her back, eyes glued to her ceiling as she picked at a bowl of popcorn while Levy laid opposite of her, facing her. "It's been a while."
"Speaking of getting laid," Levy cleared her throat, finally able to spill the beans. "I wanted to tell you about what happened last night."
Lucy looked at her best friend, eyes wide as she was midway to popping another curdle in her mouth.
"The crude part of it is that I didn't remember," Levy laughed, her face growing redder as she felt embarrassed. "But then we did it again after breakfast and wow."
"What?!" Lucy shot up in bed, knocking over the popcorn all over the bed. "You had sex?! With who?!"
"His name is Gajeel. I guess we met him at the bar last night. He said he's friends with Natsu."
At that, Lucy sneered and rolled her eyes, laying back down at the sound of his name. She picked at the popcorn that was laid out on her bed and went back to munching, waving her hand in the air. "Okay, go on. Tell me all about it! Was he good?"
"I mean, not like I have anyone else to compare but if sex always feels that good then I want to have sex all the time!"
Natsu didn't know what the hell was wrong with him. He didn't even know what the hell was wrong with Lucy but all he knew was that he was fucking pissed. Angry wasn't even the right word for it, he was ballistic. He wanted to burst into flames and uppercut a demon or a dragon type of anger. He wanted to knock down a whole building, light it on fire, and beat the shit out of Hibiki. Or Gray. Maybe both. At this rate, he could take on the entire campus of MU because fuck everyone and fuck feelings and fucking stupid women and fuck Lucy and fuck everything!
Natsu ended up going out that night. He got fucking hammered and fucked shit up at beer pong, had a couple of girls fall in love with him with some sweet talk, drank a whole case of beer with Gray, downed a bottle of shit alcohol, and pissed on the house of Blue Phi because fuck Blue Phi. He didn't fuck anybody nor did he stick his tongue down anyone's throat. He kept his hands to himself and punched a hole in a wall or two and got into a fist fight with some asshole.
Romeo and his pledge brothers had to drag him out the house, Laxus barking orders at them to bring him home before he made things worse. Gray made very specific orders to keep Natsu away from the FZ house, especially from Lucy and he promised he would make their lives a living hell if he found out Natsu had made contact with said blonde. So they were fighting with their lives to keep Natsu down and bring him home but Natsu was strong. Stronger somehow when he was pissed drunk and very, very loud and aggressive. It took seven of them to keep him down as he tossed and cursed and thrashed.
It got way out of hand that they were forced to tie him up and keep him from wrecking more things. Getting him inside of the DT house was the absolute worst mission they were set upon as Natsu refused to step foot inside but wanted to pummel his way into the FZ house across the street. He was screaming for Lucy, calling her all sorts of names and he sputtered out how much he wanted to fuck her and how much of a bitch she was to say those things to him. If nobody knew what the hell was going on, they would have thought he was going through a messy breakup. Which honestly was in his case because the moment he had stomped his way over back to DT from the FZ house, he was rambling about stupid fucking bitches and how he was going to fuck someone named Hibiki up and fuck Blue Phi and he downed a whole bottle of whiskey all on his own.
Nobody really understood what he was going on about and when he got drunk, it just got worse.
So imagine Romeo's fear when he came back to check up on Natsu and he was gone. The panic in his body was worse than when your parents found your porn collection type of panic and he let out a blood curdling scream as he scrambled to look for his big brother to be.
Thankfully the search wasn't long as they heard the pounding of the door across the street and Natsu's sloppy slurs and shouts. And so the DT pledges were on it, sprinting across the street like they were ninjas and running from the police. They were quick to sneak up on him and slam him down on the porch, slapping duct tape over his mouth and tying his hands and feet together while he cursed them out.
Romeo will thank him again for teaching them how to hogtie and honestly they were naive to think Natsu wouldn't be able to untie himself but they were smarter this time around. They had used extension cords and they weren't going to make the same mistake. So they dragged him across the street without making it look too suspicious and they brought him down to the basement, tying him to the one pole that was down there. It felt weird to be on the other end, tying up a brother while the pledges watched him scream and thrash. They already knew he was going to fuck them up tomorrow (if he remembered) and honestly none of them blamed him.
If Lucy had dumped any of them, they would all exactly be the same way he was but Natsu was a fucking menace to society right now and they had to keep him locked up till he sobered up or knocked out.
This pledge class knew it was going to be a very, very long night.
Twenty one days, sixteen hours, nine minutes, and five seconds.
That was how long it has been since Natsu had talked to Lucy. That was the very last time they had a conversation or even were alone for that matter and that was when he was stupid and raised his voice at her like some fucking animal. He still kicked himself for it and it made him feel like shit when he saw her around campus or even across the street. It made him feel even worse when he would see Gray hanging out with her and he wanted to rip his hair out.
He honestly thought at that point he would have forgotten about her but something about her was so fucking addicting that he couldn't. He didn't know why because it seemed so easy when it came to other girls.
So he's tried a lot of different ways to forget. He's gotten blacked out drunk for four days straight before he realized it was just too expensive and his body was taking the hit for it harder than any other remedy. He went to the gym and knocked out every motherfucker in there and even had Gajeel pound on him for a good measure till it pissed him off. He kissed girls left and right, realizing the bitter taste wasn't them but it was the fact it wasn't Lucy who he was kissing and some chick he didn't even know her name. He's even tried to go as far as having sex but by the time he was rolling the condom down, he got soft to see it wasn't the same creamy skin or giant tits or the nice golden hair. So he tried to go for someone who had giant tits and he still got soft. And then he went for someone with golden hair but he didn't even get fucking hard because this was not Lucy!
Natsu was running out of ideas and he was angry. Angrier than usual. He was punching holes in walls, getting blasted at ten in the morning, and hazing the pledges worst than he had because fuck everyone.
And it's not like he didn't try to talk to her. She was pulling the same bullshit where she dodged his calls, ignored him when she saw him, and practically ran away every time. Every. Fucking. Time.
And he was fucking sick of it. He wanted to pin her down and choke her out with his dick and have her begging him to stop till he had his full.
Natsu was very, very sexually frustrated and he was angry. Those did not mix very well and with it being homecoming weekend and having alumni coming up, he was kept busy. But not busy enough to see the blonde sorority sister across the street dressed in skimpy clothing like usual having the time of her life while they got drunk.
His eye was twitching as he crushed the can in his hands, steam rolling out of his ears as he turned to look at Gray who just sighed.
Gray had already become accustomed to this, now. He had talked to Lucy many times to see if she could mend things with this hot head but she said she was still angry. At what? He didn't know nor did it seem like she knew either at this point. But it was starting to affect him, too, because Natsu was more of a dick than he usually is and Lucy was being a lot more flirty with him which didn't make it any better for Natsu. He hadn't seen Lucy do anything as far as Natsu did but it's not like Natsu could say he really collected any bodies since he went soft at the very last minute. Poor thing.
Lucy wasn't spiraling like Natsu though and it was like she liked to see him that way. That fucking sadisic bitch. She wasn't getting drunk days in a row and going around sleeping with guys to make herself feel better but she did put in a lot of effort in herself, he's noticed. She always came out of the house looking like a whole meal with makeup, her outfits, and even her hair all nicely done. She smelt delicious and looked even tastier as she turned heads wherever she went. Gray believed she did this to stir a reaction off Natsu and honestly it worked because every fucking day Natsu would come fist his shirt and shout about how fucking great she looked.
But why did he have to get in the middle of this anyways?
This was probably his first time seeing the blonde drinking and having fun in a while. She's been pretty quiet since her and Natsu got into whatever argument that caused them to be this way and he was more surprised she was out in the yard where Natsu could see her and possibly stomp over and snatch her.
So, here was Gray, walking over to the girls who whistled at him because where'd his shirt go? He knew he had eyes on him from both sides of the street and he cursed Natsu and Lucy for putting him in such a position.
"Hi Gray!" The girls were quick to be at his side, touching up on his toned body.
"You look great as always!"
"Come take a shot with us!"
Gray just held his hand up to offer a wave to all the giggling girls, throwing back a free shot and then turning to look at Erza.
"What are you doing over here?" Erza looked over from her position where she was filling her cup up with wine.
Gray never understood girls and their love for wine. He thought it was too sweet and gave him a killer headache.
"I've been sent by that idiot," Gray motioned towards the rosy-haired one who was shooting daggers from across the street. "Have you talked to Lucy?"
"She's drunk right now," Erza sighed as she looked over at the blonde who was excitedly chatting with her other sisters. "I don't even think she's mad anymore. I think she's doing this just to mess with Natsu."
"What a fucking sadist."
Erza seemed to have a pleased smile on her face, nodding in approval as she brought her cup to her lips to take a sip.
Gray went over to where Lucy was to grab her by the arm, the blonde being extra dramatic as she yelped and whined. Gray swore he heard something break across the street and he kept his back towards his frat house so he didn't have to see his best friend who was most definitely watching him.
"Gray, you're so rough!" Lucy whined, shaking him off. "You know I told you that's only for the bedroom."
And of course Natsu had to have good hearing because Gray could hear the pledges scream to hold him back.
"Lucy, stop fucking around," Gray growled, pulling her aside to talk to her. "I'm tired of being between you and that hot-head over there."
Lucy rolled her eyes, straightening her skirt and fixing her shirt. She didn't respond as she took a sip from her drink but Gray snatched it out of her hands making her cry out.
"Lucy, I'm dead serious. I'm going to stop talking to you if you two don't fucking make up."
"He's the one who should be apologizing to me!" She stomped her foot down, a pout on her lips. "I don't even care!"
"Then make up with him!" He groaned as Lucy tried to snatch her cup from his reach but he was much taller and he held it up high. "Right now."
"Whatever," Lucy scoffed, arms crossed against her chest. "You're annoying."
He grabbed her wrist, latching on tight as he started to pull her across the lawn and towards his frat house. Lucy cried out, protesting as she dug her feet into the grass but she was stumbling and slurring the entire time. She cried out for her sisters and pledges who didn't do anything because they all thought the same thing Gray did. Natsu hounded every single one of them. Every. Day. And when someone does that for twenty one days at that point anyone is willing to do anything to get it to stop.
Eventually Gray had Lucy over his shoulder, the blonde screaming about murdering him and hating him forever as she kicked and punched his back. Gray didn't even care as he could see the look his best friend was giving him and he knew he was going to buy him a fat old bottle later. He looked like a fucking kid in a stupid candy store and it made him snort.
"Here, delivered on a silver fucking platter," Gray traded the blonde for the bottle Natsu had in his hands. Lucy just kept thrashing and screaming making some of the boys steer clear in case they had another incident of a body-slam. And nobody was going to have to deal with that humiliation in front of the FZ girls.
"You fucking better sleep with one eye open, Gray! I'm going to fucking rip your balls off and shove them down your throat you traitor!" Lucy screamed as Natsu was now retreating inside of the house. The brothers were all in amusement as they turned to look at the ink-haired brother who awkwardly sipped out of his cup, looking away in horror as he knew she was serious.
Lucy wasn't the one person to fuck with. She proved that since day one where she could overthrow a man twice her size and receive more than one love confession her first night out. She also was not the person you could talk shit about or do dirty without there being any consequences.
So while Natsu locked her in his room, she was this fucking close to slamming him onto the floor and kicking him where the sun didn't shine. That is, until he apologized.
"I was wrong."
It wasn't really an apology but she's never had a guy admit he was wrong before so she was feeling a little generous because she was warm and in a good mood and he looked so fucking good.
"I shouldn't have raised my voice at you like that and I was a fucking dick. You don't deserve that and you have every right to be mad."
Lucy crossed her arms, her bottom lip pushed out into a pout as she eyed him.
"I don't know what you did to me or what is with you but you drive me fucking crazy. I can't not talk to you. You make me so fucking angry and you just know how to push my buttons you fucking little—" Natsu held his hand up in a strangling position but he caught himself and let out a loud exhale. "Anyways, I want to make amends with you because I miss you and I'm sorry."
Lucy shifted her weight onto her left hip, her eyebrow raised as she continued to stare at this handsome man. She honestly wasn't mad at him anymore and she did miss him a lot but Lucy was a fucking winner and she was not the person to fold so she was surprised to see Natsu folding. She was more surprised it took him this long to snap. Last time, it was only a couple days and maybe this time he thought he was stronger than that and he didn't have a time crunch like her date with Sting.
It just made her laugh and that's what she did. She just laughed and she could see how pissed Natsu was getting but he was cute and she really liked this guy.
"Really? You're just going to fucking sit there and laugh at me?"
"Yes, because you're really, really cute." She tossed her arms around his shoulder to giggle. "I accept your apology."
"Really?" Natsu perked up at this, his arms automatically coming to wrap itself around her waist. He liked how she felt in his arms and it felt like a huge weight was lifted off his shoulder as he picked her up and spun her around. Her squeal made his insides warm and he held her close, burying his face into her hair where he could finally smell her after almost a month of no contact. "You're a fucking crazy bitch you know that?"
"I know," she was bouncing on her toes, a wide smile on her face. "I like to drive you crazy." Natsu wanted to kiss her right then and there and declare his feelings for her but she pulled away before he could. "Come on, let's go get hammered."
"Oh, fuck yeah," he was all grins and smile as the two stumbled out his room and down the hall. Lucy was all smiles and giggling while holding his hand and it became warmer than usual as his stomach turned. "And here I was thinking I could get a kiss or something," Natsu teased, a bit disappointed she was pulling him towards the door.
Lucy turned to look at him, her eyes wide and it made Natsu think if he took it too far too fast. They literally just made up and here he was being a fucking idiot.
"You wanted a kiss?" She asked in surprise as if she didn't hear it correctly.
"Y'know, a little make-up gift? A little 'I-forgive-you' smooch? As friends." He suggested, a nervous smile on his lips as Lucy looked in a daze.
Soon, she was smirking as she looked at him with a glint in her eyes. It kind of made him scared. "As friends?" She scoffed and Natsu was now regretting asking her as she stepped towards him. "Do you kiss all your friends?"
"Only the cute ones," he murmured bashfully.
"So you kiss Gray and Loke?"
"Alright, now you're taking it a bit too far." He said before he scowled. "Hey! You think they're cute?!"
Lucy giggled at him, her cheeks pink from alcohol and from her embarrassment. She honestly didn't think he would ever be bold enough but she liked teasing him and she missed him. So she leaned in and pecked him on the cheek, her smile widening at his rosy cheeks.
"Come on, Natsu, let's go get fucking wasted."
Natsu decided that he liked this crazy bitch and one day he was going to retire his whore ways and ask her to be his.
