"Where am I?"

Lucy was floating in a place filled with flames. The red, orange, and yellow colors danced around her, warming her entire bieng. The flames didn't hurt or burn like normal flames but instead lightly grazed her skin, making her feel calm, relaxed, and...

Safe.

"Lucy..."

Lucy turned toward the voice. Floating in front of her was a firey silhouette of a man.

"Lucy..."

Lucy closed her eyes as the man reached out and lightly touched her face. It warmed her cheek as the silhouette's head lowered towards hers. Their lips were inches away...centimeters...

"Natsu..."

----------------------------------------------------------------

The sun blinded Lucy as she slowly opened her eyes. The dream felt so good, so good that she didn't want to wake up. She could still feel where he touched her, how comfortable she felt. Then she remembered what the man did last and what name she called him.

"Natsu..."

"Mmm."

Lucy's eyes shot wide open when she heard the voice. She tried to move and found she couldn't. The reason?

She was in the muscular arms of a sleeping Natsu Dragonil.

"N-Natsu! How did you get in my bed again!?" asked Lucy, with a blush on her face as her mind was racing.

"Lu...cy..."

Lucy gasped as he whispered her name in his sleep. He looked so peaceful, like he was having a good dream. His head lowered and he dug his nose into her hair, taking in her scent. His eyes opened, though still very tired, and looked at what he was holding.

A blushing Lucy was looking up at him with big blue eyes. He looked at her awhile.

"Hm...I'm still dreaming," he said.

"What!?" shrieked a surprised Lucy.

Natsu then lowered his head and captured her lips. Lucy's eyes widened but then slowly closed as she melted into the kiss.

She felt like she was dreaming again. This was the exact same feeling that she felt in her dream. She was in the warm arms of the man she loved and she felt...

Safe.

Natsu broke the kiss as he looked down at Lucy. He didn't speak or do anything for what felt like an eternity. Then he sat up with Lucy still in his arms.

"Wait a second," he said, kissing her again. After he broke the kiss he looked at her, "...I'm not dreaming."

"No," said Lucy, trying not to laugh, "You're not."

He stared at her with a face that said "You're kidding!".

"Ah! You're right," he said, laying back down, "If I was you'd be in a bathing suit feeding me fire."

Lucy blushed and layed back down too, "Whatever Natsu. I'm too tired to even hit you." She was lying. She was definitly awake from all that happened.

"Feeding me fire through your mouth."

"THAT'S IT!" yelled Lucy as she smacked him in the head with her pillow, "GET OUT OF MY ROOM!"

As Nastu ran out of the room he stopped at the doorway, "You know, blue looks good on you but you're way sexier in red."

Lucy gasped as she looked down to see that she was only in her matching blue bra and panties. She blushed all shades of red as she threw all the objects around her at Natsu who fled the building with a huge smile on his face.
