Sequel of Sheepish Wolf: Natsu's POV (I would like to change the title of this sequel though)

The One

For the past 23 years of my life, I've been spending this season either by myself or with my friends. Ah! When I was little I got my father but he left when I was 9. And that just doesn't have anything to do with my problem now.

I could still remember Lisanna's friend's words. 'She's moved on from you.' Damn. Why didn't I have the guts to ask her out during high school? I've got plenty of chance. Why didn't she ask me out? She knew I can't!

Damn it!

Well, I can't do anything about that now.

It's that time of the year again. I bought my friend's gifts earlier this week, because really I didn't give much effort for their gifts. It's a mug last year. This year, I'm giving them photo albums. I don't know if people still use those but having hard copy of pictures are way better than digital. Plus! The albums are on sale!

Ugh. I'm hopeless. Lovers anywhere. Everywhere! I'm 23 and I still have no experience in dating. Couldn't say that out loud because people would make fun of me, or well my friends. They all had someone to spend Christmas, years ago. And I'm still waiting. Gray told me to just go grab someone because I'm really hopeless. But she couldn't just be someone, she to be the one.

And wouldn't it look like I'm forcing someone if I just grab them?

That bastard Gray. He's just lucky that the one he likes is Juvia, who is obviously head over heels for him.

I didn't notice I was right in front of the train station until the tickets are needed. I placed my briefcase down and pulled my wallet from somewhere inside this coat. Damn. Where is it? I could hear the train is already there. I need to get to that train fast! Ugh. Shit. Where's that thing?

Once I found it I ran towards the platform hoping I could still get to that train but alas, the buzzing sound is all I heard and the train moved. Well, doesn't matter. The next train will be here soon.

While waiting for the next train, standing, beside me was a couple. An old couple. They looked really happy. They were holding hands! Everyone's holding hands! Everyone just had to have someone to kiss, someone to hold and someone to spend Christmas with! Well, not just Christmas. I would like to soend every holiday with that One person.

Where the hell is she?!

I need her now. Can't she tell I've been old enough to support her? I have all the resources! I have my own house. She can move in with me! I have a nice job. All that's left is for her to come to me.

Soon the train came and I immediately went in. Ooooh, lucky train. There are a few people and a lot of vacant seats. I sat on one vacant but then the old man from the old couple that was beside me a while ago was standing. The woman was sitting beside me and they were still holding hands. What choice do I have? I don't want to get in the way of their lovey-dovey. I stood up and offered the chair to the old man. He smiled and both of them thanked me. I just nodded and went to one corner grabbing a bar.

I can't wait. I need to do something.

Waiting for her to come is like waiting for someone who won't come. I just need to do something. For ones in my life. I need to make a move. Just like what Levy told me, no one's gonna do something about it, except me. Or her.

Is that woman even looking for me? Did she think about me.. Ugh why would she even think about me if she doesn't know me? But well, a hypothetical The One would be enough. Is she as inexperienced as I am? Or is she really experienced? How many boyfriends did she have? I'm going to break the face of those guys who made her cry. Well, I'll thank them after a few punches—no one, as in No One makes my woman cry—and if they have a problem with that they have to talk to my fist—because if they didn't break her heart, she wouldn't have been mine.

Well, I know she will be mine no matter how long it would take. She's my The One after all. Just please not after I'm infertile! I also want to have my share in the increase of human population!

Soon we arrived at the next stop: Hargeon.

Just when I thought I got the lucky train. People came rushing in with bags, obviously from shopping. This train is going to be stuffed soon enough. Just then a goddess had entered the train.

She's in a pink dress, the same color shade as my hair. She had alot of bags with her and she stood next to me! What should I do? What should I do? Wait for her to ask me why I was looking at her the whole time?

NO!

Waiting leads me next to nothing! I don't want to let this slide. I just need to ask her name! A contact number! Talk to her you handsome Natsu! You just need to —

The train suddenly became full and she was pushed towards me. This time without thinking I slid my hand around her waist and pulled her close to me. I could feel her stiffen.

"Please don't scream." I whispered against her ear. "I'm not a creep or something.. I just.. I just want to try something I haven't tried before."

She pulled herself away and looked at me. I hesitantly smiled at her.

"I'm sorry I'm involving you in something like this.. But can you.. Can we act as a couple during the whole ride?" I asked not loosening my hold on her. She was so close. I could smell her scent.

Vanilla with a hint if strawberry.

I never liked sweet things. But this time, I like this. I want this.

I could feel my whole body shake but I started this. I need to finish this. "You don't have to if you don —"

I felt her arms wrapping around my torso as she placed her head on my chest. God, I feel like I'm in heaven. She gives me chills just by being this close to her.

"Then, we'll just act as a couple for the whole ride. I won't ask your name, your contact or anything. Can this be until.. Until one of us has to go down?"

"Okay." She replied and looked up to me. This way I could see her beautiful brown eyes. Her lips, so pink and plump. I dipped my head and started pulling her against me a little more and kissed her. I could feel her tense at first but then she gave an equal amount of pressure against my lips.

She placed her hands around me neck and I placed both my hands on her waist.

This is beyond amazing. She's beyond amazing. The best kiss I've ever had in my life. Our lips were perfectly molded against one another. I tilted her head to gain more access and she gladly opened her mouth for me. I ran my hand through her hair. So soft. I could hear her making sexy noises and that just made me even more excited.

Soon we parted and I looked right into her eyes. Her face flushed. I gave her a peck on the lips again. God, I just can't get enough of her. She placed her head on my chest again as I encircled my arm around her. Can she hear how my heart is beating so damn fast? She felt cold and so I hugged her even more and place my head on top of hers.

This time I noticed the people watching us. They were all smiling. Some were squealing. Then the old couple from before smiled at me.

"You look cute together." Said the older woman and snuggled close to her husband.

I just nodded and looked away feeling my face really hot. No one in that train knew I didn't even know who this girl is. No one knew we just met at Hargeon which was just a couple of stations away.

"You okay?" I asked her hesitantly.

She pulled away a little and smiled at me. That heart felt smile. "Yes." She nodded and hugged me again. "You're.. You're so warm."

I chuckled. All shyness fading away. I kissed the top of her forehead and I felt her stiffen. God, she smelled wonderful. I don't know if she's my The One. But I didn't regret anything. I hugged her tighter. My cheeks are kinda hurting for I've been smiling for so long now.

Best. Day. Ever.

Then she pulled away from me all the way. Her warmth instantly leaving me. She smiled. "My stop's next. Magnolia." She said and started grabbing her things.

"I-I.. Uhh.." What the hell! She's leaving. Just when I don't want things to end. Just when I found her.. Just when I finally made a move. I pulled her to me and hugged her as tight as I could. "Thank you. So damn much." I whispered in her ear. "You don't know how much this means to me."

"Hey." She laughed an angel-like laugh. Like chimes moving with the wind. "It's not like you don't this with other random girls.. Right?"

"I-I.." She stopped me by kissing me again. When she pulled away, I saw her now outside the train walking away.

That was fast.

How could she make me freeze like that? How could she make my time stop by just.. kissing me?

Wait.

She thought that I do that to random people.. Damn. How could she? I told her I want to experience something. Didn't she feel what I felt? Ugh! Whatever The One, I just need to get this girl. I don't care who The One is now, she just got to be that girl. I can't just let her go!

I ran to the doors. "JUST WAIT FOR ME! I'LL SEARCH EVERYWHERE FOR YOU! I'LL GET TO KNOW YOU AND YOU, ARE GOING TO BE MINE! REALLY MINE!" I shouted before it closed.

I could still see her through the window. She's looking back at me. And just when she was about to get smaller and farther away, she smiled and waved goodbye.


"Get up idiot!"

Damn this bastard. "What do you want?"

"Stop sulking. If you want to see her again then get your ass up! She wouldn't just miraculously come to your doorstep."

"Shut up Gray. You don't know how it felt like. Ever since that day I waited for her at the station, whether it's Shirotsume or Magnolia, every single day!" I whined. Why didn't I just went down on that damn stupid train? "How would I see her now? I don't have any idea how to search for her."

Gray went out of my room. "You have breakfast?"

Why the hell was he even here? For breakfast again? Didn't Juvia give him that every day? Geez. I lazily got up and followed him.

"Get the hell away from my fridge stripper!"

But Gray had already opened my fridge. "You know, Juvia and I are getting married and I have to save all the money I could save."

"And what does my fridge have to do with you saving?"

"We're friends Natsu. You shouldn't be like that. I'm helping you get a girl, help me save for my soon married life."

Asshole. His advices are like: go grab someone, force yourself on her.. Or something like that. But when I really think of it.. That's exactly what I did to that woman on the train. But I asked for her permission, right?

"You should have been saving yourself before marriage. Idiot." I walked to him and closed my fridge. "No touching my fridge until we found her."

Gray irritatedly pulled his hair. "Ugh! Why don't you just go check Lisanna? She's probably in, if it's you."

"I already told you. I don't want anyone but that woman in the train."

"Not even Lisanna?" He gave me a smug look.

I shook my head. "Not even Lisanna."

It just have to be that woman. That blonde beautiful, amazingly sexy woman. Its just got to be her. Gray showed me a lot of girls with the same description but she is none of them. I even asked Erza to command her underlings to find that woman. Oh the torture I received. But when she heard who I was looking for she let me go through profiles of all the women in Magnolia.

Perks of being friends with the chief of police.

Still, none. She isn't one of those people!

Where could she be? Ugh. I would search the whole of Fiore for her.

"Why do you have to fall in love with someone you don't even know?" Gray said while munching on some chips. Where did he get that? Whatever.

"I'm so stupid for not even asking her name."

Gray laughed. "Yeah. You're so stupid you made out with her not even knowing her name."

And he just have to say that to my face. I know that already! Damn it.

"Hmm. Why not use social media? Or you know pay for an ad on the TV, newspaper.."

I sat on a chair after making myself a coffee. "Would that be worth it? I mean, what if she's already in a relationship. Or what if she doesn't even want to —"

Gray rolled his eyes and sat on the counter. "Shut it. She wouldn't have kissed you if she's in one." Well he has a point. "Unless she's a bi —"

"Don't you dare call her that!" I glared pointing my spoon at him. "I know she isn't. She's just.. I can't explain it." Now I feel afraid that she would just go kissing other people.

"Then just post an ad or something.." Gray's eyes widened. "Oh! I remember! You know Mira? Lisanna's older sister?" I nodded. "She's a something in a radio station."

How would that even help?

"Why not try calling a radio station? You know? That DJ Layla they were talking about.."

"DJ Layla?"

"Yeah. That heart doctor something. She gives love advices to people and they said she's good." Gray said proudly. "Call her and ask for advice."

Is he an idiot or what? "I don't have love problems." There's no point in talking to Gray. I need to find another useful person who could help me. "I'm looking for a certain person, I'm not in pain because of love."

"Well, first you cannot have this shyness problem. Then when you were able to see one you let her slip away.. Ask her what you should do."

"She's going to say I need to look for her."

Just then Gray pointed his index finger at me. "And that's it. Once you told her your story, ask her to help you search for that love of your life."

My eyes widened in realization. I stood up and walked over to Gray. I punched him on the shoulder. "You know, if you use your brain, you could be helpful sometimes."


And the time comes. I'm going to call this DJ Layla or something. I don't really know why I should explain things to her, if we could just tell Mira what we need. But then again, this could be a chance to tell that woman in the train station that I've been patiently waiting for her. And that I don't do that to every random beautiful stranger I meet.

"Damn it Gray. Why are you even here?" I hissed when he scooted closer as I placed the phone on the center table. And why is everyone in my house right now? We are currently sitting in my living room. Erza and her boyfriend's here. Levy was chatting with Juvia while Gajeel was in the kitchen.

Gildarts is also here. "This is a historical event in Natsu Dragneel's life." He said ruffling my head. "I'm going to tell my students about this."

"Shut it Gildarts. Why are you even here? Go make lesson plans. Don't be the ass teacher you are about.. 8 or 10 years ago."

He placed his feet on the table. "I'm on research right now. Next lesson's going to be Natsu Dragneel's love life, which will be having some kind of action in a few minutes." He laughed. "After 23 years of living! Finally!"

This is why I don't want telling people about my problem. "I was about to be married sooner or later. And that's even more amazing."

He placed a hand on my shoulder. "You know. I was willing to pay you a visit every month once everyone gets married. I know how lonely that could be. We could drink our single lives all through the years! Or we could play golf!"

I rolled my eyes. "As if." And he do know he's older than me, right? He'll die way earlier than me. "Annoying old man." I muttered.

"At least Gildarts get to have a wife and a Cana." Gray said leaning on the sofa while he sip on his drink.

"Why the hell are all of you even here?!" I shouted and all of them stopped what they're doing.

Levy smiled. "Moral support! This is that magical moment you'll be making a move to find that one person."

"Natsu is so romantic." Juvia said. "Juvia wished Gray will be like that."

"Trust me Juvia, you won't like what Natsu did to that girl." Gray said.

"What on earth did he do this time?" Erza asked.

Why do they have to be here? Why do they have to meddle with my search for that woman? And now Erza. "Oh look at the time! I need to call the station now!" I said ignoring Erza's question.

There was a long ring until another person answered. I was asked to wait and after a few minutes a woman spoke.

"Hey, uhm. This is Mira, just stay calm, don't worry. Layla's.. kind." She laughed. "Just tell her what —"

"Hey Mira. This is Natsu."

"Natsu? Oh my gosh! Why are you calli —" Another voice stopped her telling her that it's time. "Oh Natsu, we have a lot to talk about. Are you single?"

I hesitated. "Uhh, yeah?"

"Good! Oh my gosh. I'm going to introduce you to DJ Layla. She's definitely your type!"

No thanks. I'm looking for this certain person. "Uhh well.."

"Goodness. Just tell Layla everything you need to say and just whatever. I'll introduce you two later! Bye — Joke. I mean wait for her. She'll pick up after me."

Okay. This is it. If I wouldn't be able to get something out of looking for that woman. I'll agree to meet that DJ Layla. Though, I don't really have a choice, because Mira's the one speaking.

As soon as DJ Layla spoke I was kind of taken aback. I remembered this voice from somwhere before.. But maybe that's just because she's a radio icon. I mean I must have be in tune to this station at some point in time.

And then she was asking for a pen name. "Couldn't I just say my real name?" Because really I wanted to just look for someone. I can give my name and even my contact number! I just need to find her.

Just then I heard people in my living room say: Pinky.

And I just have to repeat that. I glared at them but Erza's overpowered mine and I just continued. Whatever! No one knew who I am anyway..

I started to tell DJ Layla what Gray told me before. Start with an introduction and what better introduction would be than telling her why I did that. All the while I was really nervous. The people in my house opened the TV in my room and tuned in to the station. Well, that was a little relief though. Still, there are a lot of people listening.. people I do not know of. Or are there? I don't know if this DJ Layla has a lot of listeners.. Still.. Broadcasting this story was like opening myself to the public!

I told DJ Layla what I did in the train. The deal I made with a stranger woman. The kiss. How that felt.

Everything.

As I was telling the story, DJ Layla was supplementing it. She kind of knew what happened.. Well. It was kinda predictable. The reaction of that woman and the people around us. Or maybe she's in that train? Or maybe she's trained or used to these kinds of things. Because she's used to giving advice, so must have known how people, even she didn't know, would react. Or maybe the reaction of people in general.

"So what happened then?" She asked.

"She has to go. I kissed her right on the lips, and I was happy she replied. Her lips are the best, though I haven't tried any other but I don't have to, just to say it is the best. I think I just made out in the train with someone I don't know. That time I thought it'll be the last time I'll see her and that pained me. I told her I was thankful she agreed with my deal for the whole ride. She just smiled at me and walked away.." I paused. I breathed. This is the sole reason why I even called. "I thought I'll never be able to see her and so, I shouted at her. I shouted through the crowd.. 'JUST WAIT FOR ME! I'LL SEARCH EVERYWHERE FOR YOU! I'LL GET TO KNOW YOU AND YOU, ARE GOING TO BE MINE! REALLY MINE!'"

She didn't make any sound, nor did I dare. "W-What a beautiful story.."

"And that was the last time I saw her in, Magnolia.." Will this DJ Layla even help me? "I want to know who she is. I want to tell her how she never left my mind ever since I met her. So please, Miss DJ Layla help me. I want to know who she is. Can you help me find my one true love? I promise that if I get to know her, I'll do anything to make her mine."

There's a really long silence. Is she still there? Did the line cut? I pulled the phone from my ear and looked at it. "Her.." I heard her say and placed it near my ear again. "My.. name is Lucy, Lucy Heartfilia."

What the hell is this person saying? What Lucy Something is she talking ab —I felt that my heart stopped. Or maybe that was my breathing that stopped. Just! Something stopped in me! Sudden realization came rushing to me.

"W-What?"

She breathed. "I-I said, it's Lucy. Lucy Heartfilia." I blushed. Is this person really is that person?

"H-How do I know that's you? What if you're just a creeper or someone who -"

"IDIOT! You're the one who called! Ugh. I shouldn't have said my name here..." She muttered as her voice became even more quiet. "You're so stupid. Pink-haired man in gray coat and dirty white, scale-looking scarf."

The hell? How did she know about my scarf? "What are you? A stalker?!"

"NATSU YOU IDIOT! YOU FOUND HER! SHE'S TELLING YOU WHO SHE IS!" Erza shouted from the top of the stairs. "We still have to talk about what you did." She said while pressing on her knuckles. "But first, you go to her this instant! If you won't I'll make sure to destroy this house starting with this.." Erza strike my wall creating a hole.

Dang that woman!

But.. But.. I still can't believe it.

She is.. DJ Layla is that woman..

"LUIGI HEART-something, DON'T GO KISSING OTHER STRANGERS, YOU HEAR ME?!" I shouted to the phone. "NAME'S NATSU DRAGNEEL AND I'LL COME TO GET YOU!"


Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail

So, due to those reviews this story received.. I was motivated to make another part, in Natsu's point of view. :) Well, some people said they would like to see Natsu's part of the story. And I think this is the best I could do for Natsu's part. Maybe, I'll edit some part if I see any mistake or things that can be improved. So, anyone want a sequel? If there is, that's just going to be a problem because I want to end it here. Just.. let's see if I will be convinced to make another. Anyway, enjoy! Reviews are greatly appreciated!
