Team Natsu had just returned from a mission. As usual, Natsu, Gray. and Erza destroyed some properties so all their reward money went for the repairs. Much to Lucy's dismay. Not only that, she had returned to the guild with some injuries. Though they weren't serious, Mira still made her go to the infirmary to treat her wounds. Natsu had offered to help her and followed her there.

"That was so sweet of Natsu." Lisanna said. She was sitting at the bar with Mirajane, Erza, Cana and Levy.

"Indeed."

Mira could only sigh. "What will it take for those two to get together?"

"Uh-oh. Mira's planning something." Cana warned.

"Well, whatever it is . . ." Lisanna started. "Count me in!"

"I, myself, would like to take part in it, as well." Erza said.

Ever since Lisanna came back from Edolas, she immediately sensed the bond between the two. She was a bit disappointed at first, but soon enough, she became happy for Natsu. I mean, Natsu falling in love along with the huge possibility that that girl loved him back? What were the odds? Anyway, she had been trying to help Mira match those two up for a while now.

"I mean really, taking the time to help her with her injuries than to be out here enjoying himself . . ." Cana smirked as she started daydreami9ng about the said couples' future.

"Hey, wait a minute." Levy suddenly realized something. "Does Natsu even know how to treat a wound?"

Silence.

"I'll go check on him." Erza stood up and headed towards the infirmary. On her way, she had grabbed Gray who was arguing with Elfman.

"C'mon, Gray." she said threateningly. "Let's check up on Natsu and Lucy."

"Y-yes ma'am!" Gray said, terrified for his life.

They made their way towards the infirmary where Lucy and Natsu were currently . . . . busy. They didn't bother to knock, they just poked their heads into the room.

What they saw made their jaw drop.

They saw the said couple standing in the middle of the room. Natsu's hands cupped at Lucy's face while her hands were resting on his shoulders. Though Lucy's back was currently facing them and they couldn't see either of the two's face, Erza and Gray could tell that the couples' faces were only centimeters apart. Probably even closer . . .

"What . . ." Erza whispered in shock.

" . . . the hell?" Gray finished, also whispering.

The two were beet red. They couldn't believe it. Were their team mates actually . . . kissing? It seemed that way in their point of view.

'Oh my god, did Lucy's revealing clothes actually tempt Natsu?' Erza thought as she continued to stare at them. Lucy was wearing a white tank top with a short black skirt that had a slit by her left hip. She had left her keys and her whip with Levy before she went to the clinic.

They only blushed harder when Natsu's grip on Lucy tightened and he pulled her a bit closer, and Lucy's hands transferred from his shoulders to his face.

'The hell are the two of you doing at the guild?' Gray thought. 'Why don't the both of you just go get a room?'

His thoughts were interrupted by Erza who apparently couldn't take it anymore. She motioned Gray to leave. Thankfully, Natsu and Lucy still haven't noticed them yet. But as they closed the door, they heard Lucy gasp.

"Did you heart that?" she asked, and the two froze.

"Hear what?" Natsu asked which they were thankful for.

"N-nothing, must have been my imagination."

"Pshh, you're just looking for a way to escape."

"I-I am not!"

'E-Escape?' the two thought. 'Escape from what?' Of course, maybe they already knew the answer. But neither of them wanted to think aboutr it.

"Well then . . . how about it?"

"Sh-shut up, Natsu!"

"Yeah well, we're not done yet!"

'Natsu! What the hell do you think you're doing?' Gray thought as pictures of Natsu taking away Lucy's innocence started running through his mind.

"You bet we aren't."

'What the- ?' Well, now they couldn't take it anymore. Gray and Erza ran away from the room as quietly as possible. Erza's face were the same color as her hair, and so were Gray's. They reached the bar where Mira, Cana, Lisanna and Levy had been waiting for them.

"Ah, there you are." Mira said as she noticed them approaching.

"So, how's our favorite couple?" Cana smirked.

Gray and Erza could only give each other an uncomfortable look. They weren't sure if they should tell the girls of what had just happened in the infirmary. So there was a long pause.

"They . . . looked like they were doing fine." Erza said, still blushing. She just couldn't bring it to herself to tell them. The girls just stared at her confused.

A few moments later, Lucy and Natsu exited the clinic.

"Ah, Lucy." Mira said. "Are you feeling better?"

"Yeah . . ." Lucy avoided eye contact. "Well, I'm going home. Bye."

"Oh, bye!" When Lucy was a good distance away from them, Erza and Gray immediately confronted Natsu.

"N-Natsu?" Erza stuttered.

"Yeah?"

"Well . . ."

"What happened in there?" Gray asked, pointing at the infirmary.

"Oh, well . . ." Natsu thought for a second. "Nothing much."

"Really?"

"Yeah, but . . ." Natsu looked at the entrance of the guild, looking for the blonde mage who was already a bit far away from the guild. "From the looks of it, she's completely satisfied." he said with a goofy grin.

'SATISFIED?' Erza and Gray shouted in their minds.

"Well, I better go too." Natsu said. "See ya."

"Th-this is way too much." Gray said as he left. Erza could only nod.


This is what really happened . . .

Natsu was helping Lucy treat her wounds, but he noticed that she looked mad at him.

"Lucy?" Natsu asked but she only grunted.

"Oh, c'mon, Luce!" he whined. "You're mad at me again?"

"Hmph!" she said crossing her arms and looking away from him.

"C'mon, Lucy! I'm sorry!" he said shaking her shoulder. "Besides, I'm not the only one who destroyed stuff! Gray and Erza were in it too!"

Lucy grunted and glared at him. "Natsu, not only were you the one who destroyed most of the stuff from our last job, you almost got me killed!"

"Lucy! My flames didn't reach you, did it?" Natsu reminded her.

"It was a close call!" Lucy said standing up and headed outside the room. But she was stopped when Natsu grabbed her wrist.

"We're not done yet here!" Natsu practically yelled. Lucy was thankful there was a brawl happening outside so no one probably heard him.

"Yes we are!" she said snatching her hand back. "Geez, why do you have to be such an idiot?"

"Who're you calling an idiot?"

"You obviously!" Lucy was starting to get really pissed. "You're such a good-for-nothing idiot!"

Upon instinct, Natsu cuped Lucy's face and brought it close to his, after doinng so, he started to glare daggers at her.

"What'd you call me?" Lucy, surprisingly, was not much affected by this. But she did put her hands on his shoulders and tried to push him away a bit.

"You heard me!" Lucy said through her clenched teeth.

"Why are you so affected by this all the time anyway?" Natsu asked, also between clenched teeth. "You should already be used to it."

The two of them were really annoyed at each other and neither planned on backing down. They argued through their clenched teeth and with their low voices, each of them being careful not to snap.

What the hell is your problem?" Natsu asked, tightening his grip on Lucy's face, pulling her closer so their foreheads touched. Lucy transferred her hands to Natsu's face to try and get at least a little space between them, but she changed her mind and started focusing on their argument, leaving her hands on his face.

"Hey, I'm the one who has to provide food for you, Happy, Gray, and Erza every time you guys barge into my room! Which is almost like everyday!" she said. "Not only that, I also have a house rent this month! How can I afford all that if all our reward money is going to repairs?"

"I already apologized, didn't I?"

At first Lucy froze, but then she heard something of what seemed like the door closing. She gasped and turned around.

"Did you hear that?" she asked in her normal voice.

"Hear what?"

"N-nothing must've been my imagination."

"Pshh, you're just looking for a way to escape."

"I-I am not!" she said not wanting to lose from the argument she had started.

"Well then . . . how about it?"

"Sh-shut up, Natsu!" Lucy couldn't really remember when he had apologized.

"Yeah well, we're not done yet!" Natsu said, wanting to end their argument.

"You bet we aren't." Lucy said. She wasn't backing up just yet. It was Natsu's fault for being such an idiot. So there was no way she was going to lose to an argument concerning that.

"Look, I already told you: I'm sorry!"

"Well . . ."

"C'mon, Luce!" Lucy only grunted in reply. "Luce you know you can't stay mad at me forever."

At this, Lucy sighed. "Alright, I forgive you . . ." she said. "But only for no-"

She was cut off when Natsu pulled her into a tight hug, which made her blush.

"I knew you'd be able to forgive me!"

"W-whatever."

"Well, anyway, let's finish up treating you." Natsu sat down at one of the beds and Lucy followed.

"I can do it myself."

"I can help."

"Do you even know how to dress a wound?"

". . ."

"Don't worry, you idiot." she smiled. "I can handle this."

"Who're you calling an idiot?" Natsu jumped, annoyed. Lucy laughed at her best friend's antics. Natsu couldn't help but grin, relievede that she wasn't mad at him anymore.

But for some reason, Lucy felt uncomfortable. She stared at the door for a while, until Natsu realized her actions.

"Hey, Lucy, What's wrong?"

"Huh, oh, nothing!"

Lucy focused back on treating her wounds. Ignoring the voice at the back of her head telling her that she was sure she had heard something a while ago.

A few moments later, Lucy and Natsu exited the clinic.

"Ah, Lucy." Mira said. "Are you feeling better?"

"Yeah . . ." Lucy avoided eye contact. She wasn't in the mood to tell them what had happened. "Well, I'm going home. Bye."

"Oh, bye!" When Lucy was a good distance away from them, Erza and Gray had confronted Natsu.

"N-Natsu?" Erza stuttered.

"Yeah?"

"Well . . ."

"What happened in there?" Gray asked, pointing at the infirmary.

"Oh, well . . ." Natsu thought for a second. "Nothing much."

"Really?"

"Yeah, but . . ." Natsu looked at the entrance of the guild, looking for the blonde mage who was already a bit far away from the guild. Again he was glad that she wasn't mad at him anymore. "From the looks of it, she's completely satisfied." he said with a goofy grin, oblivious to how his friends had reacted to his answer.
