Something I just well..thought up. Or dreamt really. EdoNaLu needs more love! D: I thought of a edo-NatsuxLucy but instead got this 8D (This is a NaLu and EdoNaLu, and lets just say that Levy made a new contraption in Edolas, and it turned out that it brought them to Earthland, kay? ^.^)

Chapter 1

"Natsu!" A voice boomed throughout the guild, making some go silent. Natsu instantly realized who it was, scrambling up from the corner he was trembling in and hid behind the counter, praying that that devil wouldn't find him.

"Where is he? Eh!" Her voice demanded, crashing noises heard as she turned everything over looking for the pink haired boy. Natsu hugged his knees and began rocking back in fourth, fear filling him. Lisanna wasn't there anymore to help him get out of all the painful moves she had made him, nearly killing him each time.

"Seems he doesn't want to talk or look at you, which I can sympathize with. Did you just roll out of bed?" An arrogant voice called out, Levy being the owner of it. Natsu could hear growling and felt even more terrified if possible.

"Can it shortstop, I didn't come here to beat you up. Now where's my partner?" She demanded, her voice sounding annoyed. Natsu bit his lip, knowing if he didn't come out he'd soon regret it.

"H-hai." He mumbled, trembling slightly. He hesitantly walked closer to her, his quaking worsening with each step.

Her eyes lit up when she saw him, that glint to them. "Where were you exactly?" She demanded, punching him in the shoulder. He crumbled into a chair, holding his hands up to protect himself.

"Someone's a little to clingy, never had a boyfriend before?" Levy called, snickering. Jet and Droy didn't really like Levy or Lucy, but they couldn't help but snicker along with her comment.

Natsu watched as Lucy stopped, her fist curling and uncurling. He knew he wasn't supposed to mess with her when she was like this, unless he wanted to be a dead man, but he hated and feared fighting even more.

"Why you little bit-"

"L-Lucy!" Natsu spoke up, stunning everyone. He hadn't meant to basically yell her name, but he had. Lucy turned to him, putting her fist down and a confused look in her eyes.

"What crybaby?" She demanded, trying to hide the shock that she felt. He had never yelled at her before, not even when she accidentally broke his arm.

All the courage that Natsu had a moment before suddenly vanished, his face paling when he realized and thought of what she would do to him. No turning back now… He thought sadly, taking a step forward.

Lucy on the other hand thought of something different when he took a step forward, her face slightly turning pink. Do I like it when he yells at me…? She thought, then mentally slapped herself. Of course she didn't, but she had to admit it was a little better than him crying over stepping on a leaf. Then she remembered Earthland Natsu, how he was fierce and strong and most of all; brave. But it felt different, she for some reason favored her Natsu, like the other Natsu scared her because he was so much different. Then she remember her counterpart and shivered.

Natsu not seeing her blushing, began to talk. "I..I think we should go on a mission. The townspeople still need help, so we could deliver some stuff!" He tried distracting her from a guild fight, wringing his hands nervously, waiting for the punch to be delivered.

When it never came he slowly cracked one eye open, seeing one half of Lucy's mouth turned up, which was her smile. "For once you aren't useless, good thinking let's go." She nodded, taking him by the arm and dragging him out of the guild.

"Don't have to much fun." Jet drawled, smirking at Natsu's paled/blushing face.

"Just what you'd imagine, bastard." Lucy growled, throwing the guild doors open. Natsu yelped as one hit him in the shoulder, making him seethe.

"Wait Lucy!" An angelic voice called. Lucy turned around to see Mirajane standing there, her pretty blue eyes friendly. "While you're out can you take this old thing to the dump? Levy made it when there was magic so now she said it's totally useless." She asked politely. Lucy sighed and grunted, meaning yes.

"If it's Levy's it probably didn't work in the first place." She smirked when she heard Levy growling, turning back around to see Natsu standing there slightly nervous and anxious.

"L-Lucy are we going now?" He asked timidly, staring at the planks on the floor.

"Yeah but first you need to haul this crap onto the trailer." She ordered, walking outside and pointing to a towering invention. Natsu gaped at how big it was.

"Waah! But Lushhy~" He whined, for once not caring if he was hit. He'd rather get hit and have an excuse for not pulling it, deeming his arm hurt already.

Hearing Natsu say her name like that made her blush again. She tried keeping it down but it only got worse. She crossed her arms and looked away, growling slightly.

"Are you defying me?" She accused. Natsu's eyes widened and he ran as fast as he could to the large item, picking up the rope that was already tied around it.

Lucy smiled in satisfaction, nodding her head thoughtfully. Sometimes I wish he did defy me… She couldn't help but think. She straightened up and scowled at herself, stomping to Natsu's car and opening the door, closing it behind her with a loud bang!

"H-Hey!" Natsu growled, dropping the rope and storming over to his car. He could take being beaten on, but his car was another thing.

"What!?" She barked, eyes narrowing.

"You can't just do that to my car, who do you think you are!"" He yelled, examining the car door closely to make sure it wasn't dented.

Lucy unfroze after she unscrambled his words, pushing the door out and hitting him in the face with it. He tumbled over, cursing quietly while cupping his eye.

For once, Lucy didn't mean to hurt Natsu. She put a hand over her mouth and held in her gasp, getting out of the car and walking over to him. She might always beat him up; but she did care for him.

"Just get away!" He growled, wincing slightly when he scrambled back, tears welling in his eyes. His eye really hurt, being slammed in the face with a car door was not fun.

"I didn't mean-"

"You always mean to so don't even kid yourself." He spat at her, resting his back against the door. He pulled his hand away and she winced on the inside at the look of his eye.

"Natsu-"

"Just get in the car." He mumbled, not wanting to talk to her. He had reached his peak when she had messed with his car.

"Stop cutting me off and trying to tell me what to do, idiot!" She yelled, throwing her fist forward to hit him. That's what she did to show emotion; punch. She was actually worried of the swelling but he couldn't seem to see that, which she couldn't really blame him for.

He caught her arm surprisingly and glared at her, pulling his arm away from hers and getting into the car. Her arm dangled loosely next to her side, her eyes wide in shock. What just happened? Did he really block her hit? He'd never done that before…

Stupid Idiot. She thought, gritting her teeth together. She tried to dismiss the thumping of her wild heart and slowly opened the door, closing it carefully this time so he wouldn't fuss.

The ride to the dump felt long and awkward, when really it was only a couple minutes, given Natsu's speed. When they finally pulled up to the dump Lucy basically jumped out of the window, trying to get away from the tension.

"You gonna help wimp?" She yelled, picking up the rope and about to drag it. Natsu sighed before taking his time and getting out of his beloved car, walking over to her and picking up the other rope. Now not in the comfort of his car, he became scared. What would Lucy do to him? What had he been thinking, saying such things to her?

She looked worried and I yelled at her…I should apologize. He thought after they began hauling it. Just as they were about to dump it she dropped the rope, puzzling him.

She sighed, knowing she'd have to get this off of her chest.

"I'm…sorry." She forced out, those words bitter on her tongue. Lucy Ashley never apologized, and Natsu knew that.

But at the same exact time, Natsu had said "I'm sorry." Which made them turn their heads and look at each other the same time, making them look away and blush slightly.

"I…really didn't mean to hit you in the face." She insisted quietly, hating what she was saying, but he was her friend despite it all.

"I know… I shouldn't have yelled at you like that." He apologized again. It wasn't a surprise he had said sorry, he always apologized for the silliest of things.

"Nah…its ok. Tell you what, lemme fix ya up and we'll call it even," She assured, smiling slightly. Natsu couldn't help but blush and casually look away, nodding in response. She took him by the collar and dragged him over to the little office that was at the dump, pushing god-knows-what out of her way. Finally finding a first aid kit she dumped its contents on the floor, picking up a tube.

"Ok sit down." She said, not giving him time to react before she pushed him down in a rolly chair. She sat herself down on his lap, making him blush crimson. She didn't notice it though, putting some of the tube's insides on her finger before brushing it gently across his eyelid and under it.

"You're very gentle…when you wanna be." He commented quietly, feeling the need to break the silence. She smirked at him before finally realizing how close they were. Her eyes widened slightly and she felt the heat go to her face before she jumped ten feet in the air, landing on the other side of the small building, which sadly wasn't far enough for her.

Why is my heart beating so loudly? She thought to herself, trying not to meet Natsu's eyes. She quickly snapped herself out of it and pretend to be normal.

"Yeah and tell anyone, especially Levy, and I'll kill you." She warned, but a note of playfulness was in it. She realized that she hadn't finished applying the ointment, silently cursing him for breaking the silence and embarrassing her.

"Sorry.." He mumbled, slightly embarrassed. She walked back over to him and leaned closer to him, finishing up on his eye before quickly pulling away, feeling Natsu's eyes on her the whole time.

"Thanks." He smiled hesitantly at her. She never really saw him smile without his car next to him, it was new to her. She decided that she liked it, and she smiled back before putting on her usual façade.

"Whatever let's just hurry up." She coughed, trying to brush him off. He nodded before walking back outside with her, walking over to grab the rope.

"What do you think it does?" He asked curiously, standing in front of it and examining it. She huffed and began walking over to him.

"Nothing, but if it did I wouldn't car-" She started, tripping on Natsu's rope before she could finish. She tumbled forward into Natsu's arms, making them both turn cherry red. He slightly fell backwards and bumped into the machine, a weird high pitched noise springing from it and alarming them. "What is that!" Lucy yelled over the noise, the thing now shaking violently. Natsu was terrified, but ever since he had that talk with the other Natsu he had felt like he had to do anything and everything to protect his friends. So instead of running off screaming and crying, he tightened his arms around Lucy and pulled her closer, just incase anything ricocheted off of the big contraption.

"Ne…Natsu…" She gaped in surprise when he hugged her tighter, shielding her from the machine. Something tightened in her chest and she blushed slightly, trying to think of a way to make an excuse for later when she buried her face into the crook of his neck.

The partners stood there holding each other, a moment later a bright light shooting them from the machine. After the light died down they were gone.

Ugh I hate when people do these fillers (like I'm doin' right now xP hypocrite? Meh~) but I had to explain how they got there c: so I hope you enjoy, this is about LucyxNatsu and EdoNatsuxEdoLucy just to clarify.

Please Review and I'll update sooner! (: I hope I didn't make them too OOC or anything ;w;
