Huh? What's Going On In Here?

Wendy rubbed her little eyes when she had awakened from her afternoon nap. She yawned and stretched her arms before getting out of her bed. It was still light out, and now that she was up, she wanted to play. But who would play with her? She remembered everyone would be busy at the moment.

Her big sister Erza wasn't home, and Rogue and Sting were probably fighting outside while Lector and Frosch cheered them on. She could try to play with Sting and Rogue, but they always wanted to test their strength. When she tried to bring up a fun game, they always promised her they would play it next, and they never did.

Her other older brother Gajeel would definitely be asleep, and he would get super grumpy if someone disturbed his nap. Lily often played with her, but he always chose games for little babies. "I am not a little baby!" pouted Wendy.

Wait! She could play with her mommy. Her mom was always happy and ready to play with her. Wendy ran out of her room and headed to Irene's office. She burst through the door and saw her mom sitting at her desk, reading some papers.

Wendy ran to her mom's side and tugged her shirt."Mama! Let's play hide and seek!" she said excitedly. Irene put down the papers and frowned. "Sorry, Wendy. Mommy is busy right now. We can play later."

Wendy felt tears form in her eyes. Why did nobody want to play with her? Irene noticed Wendy's sad puppy eyes and chuckled before pulling the little girl for a hug. "I know you want to play, but let me finish my work first."

"Ok.." sighed the little bluenette. Irene pulled away from Wendy and gently pinched her cheeks. "I know. Why don't you play with Natsu? He's been in his room all day." Wendy's face lit up. That's right! She could play with Happy and Natsu!

"Ok!" she chirped. Wendy gave her mom a goodbye kiss on her cheek and ran towards Natsu's room. Irene smiled as she watched Wendy run out of her office. Now that she was alone again, she could focus on reading her documents. Five seconds in and Irene let out an annoyed groan before slamming her face on her desk. 'This sucks!'

Wendy had finally made it to Natsu's door. She was so excited; she couldn't wait to play. As she reached to grab the doorknob, Wendy heard something that made her stop.

"Mmm…"

'Huh? What's that noise?' thought Wendy.

As Wendy pressed her ear up against the wooden door, she heard all kinds of weird sounds. Wendy heard slapping and groans coming from inside Natsu's room. The little Dragon Slayer panicked. What if her big brother was super sick and he couldn't get out of bed to tell them!

"Natsu!" Wendy cried as she burst open the door. But what she saw next confused her even more.

For some reason, Natsu and his best friend Lucy Heartfilia were naked together in his bed. "EEK!" screamed Lucy in embarrassment as she covered herself with Natsu's blanket. The little girl tilted her head in confusion. "Natsu? Why are you and Lucy naked?"

Natsu mumbled as he tried to come up with some excuse that would make sense. "Uhhhhhh"

He snapped his fingers. "Uh, it was hot in my room, so we took off our clothes! Isn't that right, Lucy?"

The blonde mage frantically nodded. "Yep! That's right!"

That was weird. It was cold today, but Natsu and Lucy were saying it was hot. Just as Wendy was about to pry more into the situation, Natsu thankfully had managed to change the conversation."Wendy! Let's go buy some yummy cookies!"

Cookies! Wendy clapped her little hands. She loved cookies. Her favorite was chocolate chip and vanilla. "Ok! I'll go put on my shoes and a sweater!" She went to her room and put on her favorite blue sweater and pink shoes. By the time she came back, Natsu and Lucy had put on their clothes again.

Together, the three walked to Magnolia's best bakery. Inside the bakery, they were filled with the sweet aroma of delicious bread and pastries. Wendy gasped in amazement as she saw all the different types of cakes and cookies. There were just too many to name! Behind the counter was a nice woman who smiled at the trio. "Welcome!" The trio waved hello.

Wendy ran up to the glass and stared at all the cookies. "Wow! Natsu, can we get the chocolate chip and vanilla cookies please?" Natsu chuckled, "Hehe sure. Chose whatever you want."

She faced Natsu and Lucy. She had a big mischievous grin. "Whatever I want?" Natsu and Lucy stared at each other, and nervously laughed. "Yeah...sure."

Wendy beamed at them. "Ok!"

Natsu comedically cried. "Oh, I just know I'm gonna regret this." Lucy chuckled as she patted his back.

For the next ten minutes, Wendy pointed and asked for every cookie that caught her eye. The shop owner just smiled as she packed every pastry.

By the end, the total cost came out to 10,000 jewels. Natsu jokingly cried as he spent the last of his money. The lady smiled as she handed Wendy one of the bags filled with cookies. Wendy had to use both her hands and arms to carry the heavy bag. The Sky Dragon Slayer beamed at the shop keeper. "Thank you!"

"You're welcome, dear."

Natsu and Lucy thanked the kind lady for her time, and just as they were about to leave, the baker called out to them. "You're daughter is the most adorable customer I have ever had."

Natsu and Lucy's cheeks reddened when they heard this. The two waved goodbye and joined Wendy, who was waiting for them outside. The trio walked with each of them holding a bag while Wendy happily hummed. She couldn't wait to get home and give everyone's their favorite flavors.

For Erza, she got a mini strawberry cake.

For Sting, she got vanilla, and for Rogue, she got sweet chocolate.

For Lily, she got kiwi. Happy got a fish-shaped cookie that tasted like fish. Frosch and Lector's favorite were the same as Sting and Rogue.

She had tried her best for Gajeel. She got him some snickerdoodles, but she wasn't sure if he would like them.

And for her mommy, Wendy made sure to get her absolute favorite. Red Velvet Cookies! Whenever her mom baked, she would always make a batch of them. While Wendy was lost in her thoughts, Natsu and Lucy were doing some thinking of their own.

That comment still lingered in their head. "Their daughter." Lucy blushed as the comment replayed in her mind. That nice lady thought they were a family. Did they really look like a mom and dad with their kid?

'Children, huh?' she thought.

It would be ignorant of Lucy to say that the idea hadn't crossed her mind before. Sure someday she would like to have a kid or two. Lucy would love and cherish them for as long as she lived. She would take them to lots of fun places and comfort them whenever they felt scared or sad. Lucy would brush their orange hair...

Lucy squeaked. She was definitely thinking way too far ahead. She looked over to Natsu, who was also blushing. Funny enough, he was thinking of the exact thought as Lucy.

After they had walked Lucy home, Natsu and Wendy went straight home. It was almost dark when they got back. When they entered, the house was finally bustling with activity. Gajeel was eating some scrap metal while he watched Sting and Rogue argue about attack powers. Lector bragged about Sting's prowess to Frosch, who wasn't even listening. Frosch's attention was on a moth that kept flying into the kitchen light. Happy was peacefully eating his fish.

Erza had finally come home and was chatting with Irene in the living room. Natsu sighed as Wendy ran to her mom. He placed the cookies on the kitchen counter and headed to his room. He slowly closed the door behind him and climbed into bed.

Natsu laid back and just stared at the ceiling. He couldn't help but laugh at the situation that led him to buy so many cookies. "Yep, let's just stick to Lucy's house from now on." He closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.

Downstairs, Wendy had given everyone their pastries. Irene couldn't help herself and squealed at Wendy's pure adorableness. She gave Wendy lots of hugs and kisses as they all ate their cookies.

Wendy noticed that Natsu wasn't there to enjoy it along with them, so she grabbed some of his favorites and went to his room. She opened his door and saw that he had already fallen asleep. Wendy smiled and placed his cookies on his night table.

"Thank you for the cookies, Natsu," said Wendy with all her heart. She kissed his cheek goodnight and gently closed the door behind him.

"No problem Wendy," Natsu whispered as he reached for his cookie. He bit into the crunchy pastry and took a moment to savor it. He immediately spat the thing out. "Aww, I hate mint."

Thanks for reading. The quality may be even worse than usual because I rushed it. But hopefully, some of you will like it. I may be a horrible writer, but for some reason, I enjoy writing even if I am terrible at it. Lol

Anyway, I'm really excited about releasing the next chapter. It may take a while to finish and revise because it might be my longest chapter yet.
