A/N: I actually got out of one writer's block and fell into another. ._. I finally finished this chapter though. I started 4 other stories because of my reckless and now I have to try to finish all of them LOL oh well. It's hard writing a fanfiction with a ship you don't strongly ship as much as you did in the moment.
"Mustache man?" Lucy frowned at the king before her. Laxus snorted at the comment. "Mustache man? Really? I thought it couldn't get any worse than sparkhead.." He amused himself. Lucy whipped her head around. "Hush Zappy!" She glared at the man behind her as he raised his eyebrows. "It just did.."
The two gods stared in confusion as the king chuckled to himself, watching the couple bicker. "My old friend.. It's been awhile, hasn't it?" The celestial king interrupted. Lucy smiled as she remembered the last time she saw him was their welcoming back party hosted by him in the celestial world.
"It has been.. and to what have I done to receive your presence?" Lucy spoke a little more formally as he was the Celestial king. "Don't be so formal, old friend.. Actually, It's come to my attention that, Zeus has been given birth to." the king announced. "Zeus-s..?" The same thing Chronos and Moirai called him.." Lucy muttered under her breath, only for Laxus to hear.
"Father of Zeus, Grandson of Makarov Dreyar. Summoner, Daughter of Layla and Jude Heartfilla, The newborn in your hands is a reincarnation of Zeus or rather, the human form of Zeus." the king then bowed towards Mirai.
"You're taking this pretty well." Laxus whispered to Lucy's ear as she winced at the man's hot breath on her neck. "It hasn't hit me yet.." She muttered once again towards Zappy behind her.
A moment passed as the king specifically watched the mother process the words he spoke."..How?" The only word that came out of Lucy's mouth. "Neither of us have anything to do with Zeus.." She tried to reason, but only to be cut off. "
"Do not be alarmed, as we are here to explain everything and anything to what you are Zeus's mother." The two quiet gods also nodded towards them. "Why did you call us, in the first place?" Chronos raised his eyebrow as the question pondered in both of the god's minds.
"Master Makovav and our healer recommended we did this as I'm too young to take care of a baby, and I wanted to speed up his growth." Lucy bitterly spat out as they wouldn't experience the parenting life, like Bisaca and Alzack from birth. "And the father is okay with this?" Moirai then glanced at the imitating blonde man next to her. "If that's what she wants." He replied roughly, narrowing his eyes at the man who addressed him.
They both nodded as they glanced at each other, nodding again at each other. "Alright, it's better than leaving Zeus as a baby. He'll have more of his magic to protect himself." Chronos and Moirai then stepped closer as they held out their hands as a sign to let them hold the baby boy.
Lucy took a deep breath as her shakey arms reached out. "Relax blondie, I'm here with you. I won't let them do anything to hurt you or our baby." Laxus leaned down and whispered into her ear as she relaxed at the deep rumbling voice next to her ear.
Moirai and Chronos then chanted unfamiliar words as light shined all around Mirai, their baby boy.

"Mama! Mama!" First thing Lucy woke up to was Mirai's beaming face. "What is it, Mirai?" She smiled sweetly at her to be exact 2 days old child that appeared as a 5-year-old child. "Sho 'tis waking!" He gave her a toothy grin as she gave a light laugh at her beloved child with Laxus. 'Sho' was the exceed egg given by Master.
She was finally at home, well, Laxus's house in the forest. They even shared the same bed as both blondes spent their night arguing about how Lucy wouldn't just take the large bed to herself and let Laxus sleep on the floor or couch, while Laxus argued he was trying to give her space she might've needed after everything's that happened. In the end, they just shared the damn bed.
Feeling refreshed as light escaped through the curtains, she then realized a heavy arm wrapped around her waist as she turned her body to see Laxus's peaceful sleeping face. Lucy flushed immediately as she calmly tried to lift the arm without waking the owner as the arm tightened around her. "5 more minutes." He mumbled as he buried his face into her hair, breathing in her scent.
Lucy bit her lip as she heat creeped onto her cheeks. "Mirai!" Lucy whispered loudly towards their blonde little boy who watched the exceed with concentration. "Mommy?" He innocently glanced at his parents. "Save mommy from daddy!" Lucy giggled as Mirai perked up, as Natsu would say.. "fired up". The little prince climbed onto the bed as he faced the arm. With 2 arms and hands, he grabbed onto the arm.
"Don't worry mommy! I will save you from daddy!" Mirai confidently grinned as he attempted to pull off Laxus' arm. "Who's disturbing my sleep..?" Laxus playfully creeped up behind Lucy as he grabbed Mirai, hugging him to his chest. "Mommy! Escape now!" Mirai giggled as Laxus pulled Lucy into the hug as well. "Oh no!" Mirai and Lucy giggled as Laxus covered Lucy in small kisses.
"Come on, get ready. Let's go to the guild." Lucy giggled as she kissed Mirai's cheek. "Okay!" The 5-year-old(A/N: Even this 2 days old and 5-year-old thing is confusing so I'm gonna use 5-year-old.) ran off to his own room in the house or which in Laxus's case, was the guest room. Seeing that Mirai wasn't in sight, Laxus then tackled Lucy in a hug as he snaked his arms around her waist.
"Laxus.. we need to get ready.." She said, out of breath. "I've missed you for 8 months.. Let me be.." He murmured as he planted light kisses on her neck. "Laxus.." Lucy began to get hot and flustered as she bit her lip, enjoying the tingling sensation. "Do you like it, blondie?" He teased her as his kisses slowly moved down towards her chest, over her shirt.
She didn't wanna admit it but the shirt between them was really pissing her off. Enjoying the beet red face on the blonde, he moved to kiss her sides, only to hear the blonde whimper. "Sensitive, are we?" He smirked. Before continuing, he could hear the little prince running towards their room as Laxus immediately stood up, walking off. "Oi! That's not funny!" Lucy glared at the chuckling lighting mage as he walked into the connected bathroom.
"Mama!" Mirai ran in right after. "I'm done!" He grinned as he turned around for her to see. "You look so handsome!" She kissed both of his cheeks as cooed him. Mirai giggled as he ran towards the exceed egg.
Every time she looked at Mirai, her heart swelled. She had carried him, loved him from the outside and he was from a man she grew to love over 8 months. She had written him a letter every time she missed him, as well as writing letters to her beloved mother and father. The two only things that kept her going was Mirai himself and the thunderstorms.
Lucy never really liked nor hated the thunder. It just was there when she wrote another chapter of her book, or whenever she ran towards the guild to get out of the rain. But when Lucy left and had no one around.. It reminded her of Laxus.
The loud deep crackling sound of the thunder, the drips and drops of heavy rain, the flash of lightning and the deep blue sky being lit up when the lightning struck. It reminded her of him. His voice, his heavy weight that weighed on her that night, his blonde messy hair and his sky gray eyes.
"Mama?" Lucy looked down at Mirai, his grey sky eyes stared at her with intensity. Oh mavis, he really does resemble Laxus..

As they dressed and ready to head out, Mirai fidgeted as he tugged on Laxus's coat. "Daddy..?" Laxus immediately stiffened at the word. "Y-Yeah?" He grumbled as Lucy snickered at Laxus's red ears.
"Can we bring Sho too?" Mirai looked up with hopeful eyes as ran back towards their bedroom. Mirai came out only a moment later, rolling the huge egg towards the two parents. Lucy only squealed as she ran towards little blonde boy, smothering him in hugs and kisses. Laxus sighed as he bent down to his firstborn's height. "We can't. It's too big to carry around."
Mirai's eyes slowly formed tears as an awkward silence filled the room. "What? Why? Are you too weak to carry an exceed egg?" Lucy glared at the large man as she stuck her tongue at him, stroking the little prince's head.
Laxus immediately flared at the comment. "Hell no, woman!" He grumbled as he picked up the egg, walking out of the door. "Yay!" Mirai cheered as he ran after the blonde man, leaving the celestial mage grin to herself.
As they walked along the path in the forest, Lucy stole glances at the bulky man who carried the large egg with both arms. "Do you need help? One of my spirits can carry it." Lucy playfully sang out as Laxus snorted. "You think I can't handle this?" He smirked as Mirai skipped in front of them.
All of a sudden, Lucy could feel one of her spirits passing the gates as she immediately knew who it was. "My marvelous princess! Your knight in shining armor is here!" Loke sang out as he draped his arms around the celestial mage's neck. "Loke, what are you doing here?" Lucy looked over to her shoulder, oblivious the larger blonde's fuming.
"Oi! Pretty boy! Get out of here and don't touch her!" He growled as his hands gripped the egg in his hands. "Mama! Who's that?" Mirai ran back as he hid behind his Laxus's large body, peeking out. "I'm your mommy's spirit!" the orange haired man grinned as he placed his hand in front of the cautious boy. "Really?!" His eyes winded as he stepped, tugging on the spirit's hand.
"Yeah, I was there when you were born Little Prince." He winked. "All of mommy's other spirits also call you that." he causally mentioned, grinning as Mirai shyly flushed at the nickname. "Does.. that mean.. Daddy and Mama are King and Queen..?" He quietly mumbled as the little blonde's face heated up rather quickly, matching Erza's hair colour. "Well, I would prefer mommy and I-" Laxus then immediately zapped the lion as he groaned over in pain. "I'll probably wont ever forget the dad's lightning.." he muttered as Lucy kneeled to his side.
"Loke! Are you okay?" She gasped as she quickly kneeled down, brushing his hair away from his face softly.
"I am now, my princess." He grinned as he leaned back up clinging onto his mistress' waist, smirking at the lightning mage. Laxus' anger was doubling as he grit his teeth. "Oi! Are you really just gonna let him touch you like that?!" He narrowed his eyes at the lion who stuck his tongue out at the blonde man. "Laxus, Loke is my friend and he's my most loyal spirit. He wouldn't do anything to me." Lucy frowned at the tone he was using.
"Whatever." he spat out as he walked off, too pissed off to care any longer. "What's his problem?" She huffed as she stood up, offering her hand to the little blonde as he fidgeted with his hands. "What is it, Mirai?" She glanced at his nervousness as he shook his head. "It's nothing, mommy. Let's go." He grabbed on her hand as the lion held onto the little prince's other hand.
Lucy couldn't get the angry feeling out of her chest as Loke glanced at the silent fuming woman. "You know, getting all riled up isn't so good for you since you just gave birth. UNLESS we're talking about that riling up." He winked as Lucy rolled her eyes at his teasing. "I just don't understand why Laxus was so mad earlier."
"Hime-sama, I'd be worried if he didn't get angry." He gave her a mischeious grin as the guild came into view. Lucy snorted. "What, was he jealous or something?" She rolled her eyes as Mirai and Loke just stared at her. "Yes mommy." Mirai replied as he nodded his head. Lucy cringed as the atmosphere turned rather tense. Even a 5-year-old knew more than she did.
"It's not like he's my boyfriend or husband." Lucy scoffed as she rolled her eyes. What was Laxus to her now? Before, he was her guild mate. One night stand, the one who took her virginity and the father of her firstborn. The blonde bit her lip as she pondered the question. ''What are we now..?' Lucy quietly mumbled under her breath as her heart ached painfully at the question.
"If he's only staying for Mirai.. I don't want him to stay at all."
