It was a bright day I had noticed, stretching as blinding rays of sun peeked through the curtains. It was our last day on the beach. I was somewhat sad as I thought about how much I have changed here. Of course, the change revolved around Natsu and me. Ever since we became a couple, I feel as though I've matured.

I walked over to the window, looking at the people who had gathered down at the beach. It had a warming effect on me, seeing all of the families messing around and having a good time. I brushed the curtains with my fingertips, looking back at Natsu. I feel as though I finally have a family.

"I've never had this kind of family, not until I joined Fairy Tail." I whispered, getting dressed for the day.

I opened the window letting some cool air in. Natsu's hair swayed little at the slight breeze. I couldn't avert my gaze from him. Soon I started reminiscing about how we met. It was an odd way for sure.

I was foolish enough to get charmed by "Salamander". More like Bora. That wretched pervert, I still can't believe I got lured in like that! However, fortunately, the real Salamander, my Salamander, Natsu Dragneel, rescued me, although he did get motion sickness, as usual.

However, when he dragged me along with him to Fairy Tail, I knew that it was a new, fresh start for me. Although, I didn't know that it would make this large of an impact on my life.

Our first mission let Natsu and I get to know each other a bit. As I figured out the clues of that mask on the book, Natsu was fighting for all of our lives. Happy's, his, mine. He cares deeply for his guildmates, even though he always makes fun of them. To him, Fairy Tail is his only family. The same goes for me now. In the end of that mission, I uncovered the secret of the book and showed Natsu how showing the truth to Kaby Melon was important to me. Also how selfish I was when Natsu refused the reward...

All of the memories we shared are the things I love the most. Fairy Tail is the only place where I could truly be happy. The only place where my family is. If we were to be split apart, I don't know how I could live…

I walked back over to the bed Natsu and I shared, and laid down, still thinking about everything I have been through. Soon, I drifted off to sleep.

~o~

Opening my eyes, I saw the innocent sleeping face of Lucy Heartfilia, my mate. I looked at her, realizing she needed a blanket. I covered her in the one I was under.

"Eh, she has day clothes on, was she up before me? Maybe, not that it matters" I yawned, stretching. Since she's got her clothes on already, I might as well too.

"Mm Natsu, are you up?" Lucy asked groggily, pushing herself up from the large suite bed.

"Oh yeah, how are you?" I questioned, wondering if she got up for a specific reason earlier.

"I'm fine, why do you ask?" She asked, still in her drowsy state.

"No reason really. Just noticed that you got up earlier." I replied, sliding an arm through my vest.

"Eh, when did I," She paused to think for a moment. "Oh, I remember now! Sorry I guess I'm a bit slow in the morning."

"Don't be sorry!"

Shouldn't I be beating Gray to an ice pulp about now?

~o~

"Hey Natsu," I started. "Do you think things will, well, be the same at the guild?"

"Why wouldn't it be?" Natsu asked, now fully dressed.

"I don't know. I guess when we came back after 7 years and Bisca and Al were together, I just thought of them well, differently."

"I didn't, was it a good or bad different?" Natsu asked, going to pack the suitcases.

"Neither, it was just, different. Like more mature and stuff if you get what I'm saying." I replied, joining Natsu to pack. "I'm still worried though."

"I'm not gonna worry about it. It's not like there's anything to hide." Natsu said with a smirk, implying more than what it meant.

"N-Natsu, shh!" I hissed at him, trying to hide my ever growing blush.

"See! Nothing wrong." Natsu smiled, about to head out the door. "Ready?"

"Mm, I think so!"

~o~

"Ehhhhhh?!" Levy squealed, a large smile upon her face. "We all knew it was bound to officially happen sometime,Lu-chan!"

Why does Levy-chan insist on embarrassing me!?

We were back in the guild now so, naturally, everyone knew. Natsu just couldn't keep his mouth shut and we all know how rumors spread in the guild… But it was okay.

"You didn't do anything," Erza stopped to clear her throat. "Odd, correct?"

"O-oi, don't just bluntly imply something like that!" I hissed, my face flushed in an instant.

"Is that a yes or a no?" Erza replied sternly. In the background the words "beautiful babies" could be heard from Mira.

"U-um well, ummmm…"

"Lu-chan!" Levy squealed, confirming Erza's suspicions.

"I'm screwed…" I mumbled, waiting for Erza's punishment.

"Well I have one thing to say here!" Erza exclaimed with a commanding voice. "Invite me to the baby shower and have me your maid of honor!"

"Eh?" I replied dumbfounded.

Did she just say what I think she said? Yes. Yes she did…

What happened next was a full out battle between Mira and Erza, fighting for the place of Lucy's maid of honor.

"Lu-chan, I'm going to your maid of honor, right?" Levy whispered towards me, eyeing the fight between Erza and Mira with a smirk.

"Most definitely Levy-chan!" I replied.

~o~

"Do you Natsu Dragneel, take Lucy Heartfilia to be your wife?" Our very own Makarov stated.

"I do." Natsu Dragneel, my very soon to be husband stated.

"And do you Lucy Heartfilia, take Natsu Dragneel to be your husband?"

"I do." My smile couldn't be held back as I said those words.

"Then I pronounce you husband and wife! You may kiss the bride!"

In the next instant Natsu's lips were on mine. His signature cinnamon taste filled my senses as deepened the kiss, earning more loud whoops and shouts from the Fairy Tail mages.

In the following 5 years Natsu and I had 2 babies, a girl and a boy. Throughout our married life we faced many challenges, and will face many more, but I have concluded, I have found my happy ending.

A/N

Gosh I just feel terrible… I make you guys wait months and for what, 1,000 words? But this story has come to its end! I hope that this chapter wasn't too terribly bad, but I just had a huge sense of writer's block and couldn't fit in any more things to happen! And yes, Levy was the maid of honor! (Much to Mira and Erza's disappointment…

I think I will end this here with a goodbye! Oh and before I go, I only said the next 5 years… (Sequel? Tell me what you guys and girls think! It won't be up for a while though cuz I have other stories I will finish first!)
