Normal POV

Three Weeks Later

"I told you we weren't ready to challenge Erza," Lucy said as she helped Natsu limp into her apartment.

"Are you kidding? We almost had her! By next week, I know we'll be… OW!" Natsu had jumped away from her and put too much weight on his injured left leg. She caught him easily thanks to her new strength. Lucy chuckled at her boyfriend as she walked him to the bed and both of them flopped back on top of the covers.

Their abilities had grown and changed a lot since they had woken up from the spell. Lucy's physical strength had increased so much that she'd beaten Elfman at arm wrestling. Her celestial magic now let her summon up to three zodiac spirits at once. She wasn't as powerful as Natsu with her new dragon slayer magic, but she was working on it. Control was the hardest part; she'd accidently set parts of her apartment on fire more than once and had a lot more respect for the control Natsu had over his flames.

Lucy's dragon slayer magic was a little different from Natsu's. She didn't have any of the lightning magic that Laxus had given him, but her own magic had converged with his to create something new. Like Natsu, she could consume fire to re-energize her magic, she could light her entire body on fire, and she could roar. Unlike Natsu, there were gold sparks in her fire that created small explosions on contact. She had mentioned that these sparks reminded her of star bursts, so he had started calling her a Starfire Dragon Slayer.

Natsu's changes had been more subtle but just as dramatic. His physical and magical power had increased alarmingly; he had even knocked Gray out with one punch. His celestial magic was good enough to summon one zodiac spirit at a time and up to three in one fight. He had trouble summoning them when he got too angry or emotional, but he was able to combine his dragon slayer magic with certain zodiac spirits like Scorpio, Taurus and even Aquarius. Those combined attacks brought on a degree of destruction that made his old magic pale in comparison and most of the guild extremely nervous.

It was even more amazing when the two of them worked together. They could re-energize each other with their flames so they could, in theory, never run out of magic energy. When they synchronized their attacks, the damage was close to total devastation. And Natsu had even learned how to help her with Urano Meteoria, though it took a lot of practice to learn how to focus his magic and all the words to the spell.

"Feels great to come that close to beating her, doesn't it?" He said as he hugged her side.

Lucy smiled. It had been a really close fight for a while. With zodiac spirits and two types of fire dragon slayers coming at her, Erza had been facing a small army. The requip wizard had dispatched the spirits quickly but had still taken a fair amount of damage from them in the process, especially from Loke, but doing so had given Lucy the chance to use her new special attack.

"Starfire Dragon Slayer Secret Art, Star Dust!"

The attack created hundreds of balls of fire that shoot from her body like shooting stars, surrounding the target on all side and exploding on impact. It was sort of like Urano Meteoria, but it was faster to cast, didn't take as much magic or do as much damage. Erza had been unable to dodge the Star Dust attack, which left an opening for Natsu to summon Taurus and use their combo attack. Their attack set Taurus's axe on fire which he swung it at Erza, even though he did not make contact, the flames from the blades slashed like a spinning saw blade and shredded the armor that Erza had been wearing. This blow sent her flying into the nearby water, but she came flying back a moment later to take out the spirit. Lucy had been low on magic after Star Dust and was to slow to counter the red headed woman, who knocked her out cold. This upset Natsu enough that he wasn't able to summon another spirit, but he kept going with his fire magic. After a while, he missed an attack and Erza took out his left leg before knocking him unconscious as well.

Lucy and Natsu woke up a few minutes later to Wendy healing their wounds. Erza had smiled at the both of them as she continued to breathe heavily and told them to work on their combo attacks. "If you come up with a few more of those and synchronize your attacks more, I might not be able to beat you next time." After that, they had spent the rest of the day recovering at the guild. They were too beaten up to train for the rest of the day, but their energy had recovered a bit before limping back to Lucy's apartment. They may have lost, but it felt so good to have had Erza on the ropes like that.

"Feels amazing," said Lucy, "but Erza's right, we need to work on our combo attacks so we won't have any holes in our strategy. We also have to remember to keep feeding each other fire so neither one of us will run out of magic."

"More training, I like that idea. Especially if you can come up with more dragon slayer attacks like Star Dust." Natsu pulled her close and gave her a kiss. "I still can't believe you came up with that attack so quickly. I've never seen that kind of attack before from any other dragon slayer."

"I'm more amazed at how well you and Aquarius get along. She hasn't tried to wash you away once!"

He grinned. "I think it's because I'm a guy, so she doesn't have to worry about me trying to steal Scorpio from her. And I think she'll tone it down with you since you're my girlfriend now."

"I hope so. I really hate getting washed away every time I summon her." Lucy sighed and wrapped her arms around him.

Despite the fight with Erza, this was the easiest day she'd had since waking from the spell. Natsu had been so focused on training and learning celestial magic that they were constantly worn out. Tonight was different though, she had a plan and she was pretty sure it would work. "I'm going to take a bath and then I'll fix us something to eat."

"Nah, I'll make us something while you take your bath. I'm too hungry to wait."

Lucy hummed happily. "I like it when you cook for me."

"But your cooking tastes ten times better than mine."

She gave him another kiss before climbing off the bed. Grabbing a towel, she entered her bathroom and shut the door behind her. Natsu was more than tempted to follow her inside. He had wanted to take their relationship to the next level but between training and Happy hanging around, they hadn't had a chance. They had been affectionate, kissing each other at every opportunity, but he was pretty sure they wanted more. At least he did. Today though, he had asked Happy to stay with Wendy and Carla so he could have some time alone with Lucy.

Natsu knew it was going to be her first time so he wanted to do this right. Granted, it was his first time too, but he knew it meant more to girls than it did to guys. He wasn't much for the romantic stuff either, but he knew a nice dinner would be a good start. Then he could try giving her a back rub, maybe he should play some music on a lakrama too.

Walking to the kitchen, he started looking through the fridge to figure out what to make for dinner. A minute later, he heard the bathroom door open and glanced around the corner… and his body went on high alert. Lucy was wearing nothing but a towel as she walked over to her dresser muttering about how she forgot to grab a change of clothes.

Every fantasy he'd had about that day came to mind as she opened a drawer and started digging through it for her clothes. The towel barely covered her body and this caused his mouth to water. All of Natsu's plans went out the window as he stalked toward her. Romance is overrated anyway. Actions speak louder than words too.

Lucy knew it was coming but still gasped when Natsu came up behind her, grabbed her arms and pulled her against his body. Her triumphant smile turned into a moan as he nipped at the sensitive spot where her neck met her shoulder. She'd known that walking out in just a towel would get his attention after seeing how he felt about it the last time, now she could enjoy!

He wrapped one arm around her shoulders as his other hand whipped the towel off of her body. She hadn't had time to bathe yet so her scent was strong and it was driving him crazy with need. Natsu turned her around before pushing her against the dresser and pressing his body against hers. He growled as he kissed her passionately, his tongue forcing past her lips to conquer the inside of her mouth. A part of his mind realized that he might have been treating her a little rough, but then she moaned into the kiss, wrapped her arms around him and dug her nails into his shoulders. The little pains sent a thrill all the way down to his member and he kissed her even harder.

Lifting her up by her ass, she wrapped her legs around his waist and let herself grind against the bulge forming in his pants. Lucy had never known this side of her existed. Even as she moaned when Natsu started playing with her left breast, she couldn't help but blush. His fingers pinched and plucked at her nipple as his mouth moved from her lips to behind her ear.

"You know I was planning to seduce you tonight," he told her before sucking on her earlobe. "Dinner, music, a back rub…" He nipped her neck. "Then you come walking out looking like that…" Another growl rumbled in his chest as he bit her a little harder.

Lucy chuckled. "Guess we're going with my plan then."

He pulled back to look at her as he lowered her back down. She let her feet hit the floor as they looked at each other. "You planned that?"

Nervous, she nodded, hoping that it wouldn't kill the mood. She wasn't ready for the fun to stop.

Natsu was shocked. Did she not realize that she had just brought his fantasy to life and made it better than he could have ever imagined? My mate is the smartest, sexiest, and sweetest woman in the world. I don't care if I have to get beat up by Erza every day, if this is what Lucy does afterwards, I'll gladly loose every time.

Grinning from ear to ear and cupped her face between his hands. He gave her a sweet kiss on her lips and was still smiling when he pulled back. "I have never loved you more!"

She smiled at him and grabbed his scarf as she slipped out of his arms. He continued to grin like an idiot as she led him to the bed, but he couldn't help it. She was so sexy and perfect and all his.

As Lucy sat on the bed, she slipped off his scarf before reaching up and opening Natsu's single sleeve waist coat. She helped him slide it down his arms and dropped it to the floor. He got to work taking off his pants, but it proved to be more difficult than usual with Lucy's hands running down his chest and stomach. By the time her fingers reached the top of his pants, he couldn't take it anymore. He gripped the fabric and ripped them away. He'd worry about clothes later; right now the only thing on his mind was feeling her skin against his.

She lay back as he crawled over top of her and started kissing her again as soon as her mouth was in reach. They both moaned as Natsu pressed his naked body flush against hers. She swore she could feel every muscle against her, but what got her attention the most was his cock pressing against her thigh. It felt big and hot against her. She knew that it was supposed to hurt the first time, but his size worried her. Would he fit? Would it hurt more?

Those thoughts faded to the background as be started playing with her breasts again. Her left breast was being teased by his hand as his mouth trailed down from her mouth to lick the nipple of her right breast. It felt so good as he teased and played with her, she could have sworn there was a direct line of pleasure from her breasts to her core. But it wasn't enough, there was a near desperate need growing in her core that needed to be satisfied.

He couldn't get enough of Lucy. Her skin, her taste, her scent; he wanted to experience everything about her. Her breasts were large and overflowed his hands, but her nipples were sensitive. Every lick and nip had her moaning or hissing. Natsu wanted to play with them some more but there was a stronger scent that was practically taking him by the nose and leading him down to her core. As he made his way down, he eased her legs apart so he could see her. He had never seen this part of a woman before, he couldn't explain why but it sent a thrill to his member so strong that it hurt. It reminded him of a pair of lips, and she seemed to be wet there.

Natsu had heard other men at the guild talk about how women liked being touched and stroked there with fingers and tongues. He had to admit, he was eager to try it. Cautiously, he ran his finger lightly from the bottom of the lips to the top, collecting the moisture as he did. When Lucy jumped and cried out in pleasure, it encouraged him to do more. He continued to trace them with his finger as he watched her face. When he found the nub at the top, she bucked and moaned. Natsu smiled at her and continued to play with the nub as his other hand explored the entrance hidden between the lips. It was so tight he could barely fit his finger inside. As he pushed inside, she shrieked and he stilled his hand in case he was hurting her.

"Lucy…"

"Don't you dare stop," she panted.

He grinned up at her as he withdrew his finger. "Not a chance," he quickly pushed two fingers inside her. She shrieked again as her inner walls squeezed around him. He worked the digits in and out of her entrance, all the while rubbing the nub with his other hand. This was the most amazing thing he had ever seen. She was so beautiful with her hair splayed across the pillow, her face flushed, and his fingers inside of her. But he couldn't take it anymore, with such a strong scent coming from her; he had to know how she tasted. Natsu removed his fingers from her entrance and brought them to his mouth. The fluid he sucked from them was thick and a little sticky, almost like honey, and the taste had him desperate for more.

The withdrawal of his fingers left Lucy disappointed, she had been so close and he just stopped! She looked down at him as he shifted his position so that his head was between her legs. His eyes met hers for a moment before he ran the tip of his tongue along the length of her opening. Her head fell back to the pillow as her back arched off the bed. He placed an arm across her hips to keep her still, but she couldn't help it. He was driving her to ecstasy so fast that her mind and body were having trouble keeping up with each other.

The taste of her was even stronger from the source, he loved it and, judging by how much she was squirming, she loved it too. He licked and sucked, drinking down as much of her juices as he could. Her fingers gripped his hair as her legs wrapped around her shoulders, as if to keep him from getting away. Nothing short of Acnologia attacking Fairy Tail again would take him away from her, and even then it would be a struggle.

"Natsu… ah…"

Hearing her moan his name turned him on so much that his erection was starting to get painful. He wanted to slam right into her but he had enough sense to let her orgasm at least once before he entered her. He inserted his fingers back into her entrance while still keeping an arm across her stomach and sucking on the sensitive nub with his mouth.

Lucy moaned at the onslaught of sensations as she gripped Natsu's hair. Her core got hotter as a tingling sensation raced down her legs and back up again. When it reached her core, her entire body froze for a moment before bursting apart in the most powerful orgasm she'd ever experienced in her life. She screamed his name as she dug her heals into his back and her body bucked. Only his firm arm across her hips kept her in place as he continued to lick and pump his fingers in and out of her.

He felt her entrance grip his fingers as she screamed his name and her fluids over flow his mouth and ran down his chin. The taste was even stronger than before. He continued to pump his fingers in time with her body's spasms until they slowed down. Natsu couldn't take it any longer; he had to get inside her. Crawling up her body, he left a trail of kisses on her skin until he reached he face. She was still panting from her orgasm and that put a smug smile on his face.

Her fingers were still gripping his hair and she used the hold to pull his lips to her in demand of a real kiss. She could taste herself on his mouth, which somehow made her feel hotter. When she felt Natsu probing at her entrance with something thicker and much larger than his fingers, she couldn't help but tense a little. For the first time since they started, they slowed down.

His eyes locked on hers. "I'll go as easy as I can… but I can't… stop." Natsu panted as he waited for her.

Lucy nodded and switched her grip to his shoulders. "I trust you."

He kissed her again as he eased the head of his cock into her core. She couldn't help but whimper as her body stretched around him. He kept going until she felt him nudge at her inner barrier and paused. He was sweating as his eyes found hers again. "Fast… or slow?"

She understood what he was asking and considering her tolerance for pain, it would be better to do it fast, like pulling off a bandage. "Fast."

He nodded then thrust the rest of the way inside her. Lucy cried out but Natsu caught her mouth in a kiss. He hated that this hurt her but it felt so good. It took every bit of his self-control to not start humping her like a wild animal. She needed time to adjust and he would give her that time, even if it killed him.

It took a minute and a couple of deep breathes, but the pain finally started to fade. To gauge how it felt, she rolled her hips a little. There was still a little pain but not as much as before. The movement made Natsu moan and he began to slowly move in and out of her. The remaining pain faded away, replaced by pleasure that was different from before, more intense. They soon found a rhythm that had her limbs shaking and his body threatening to go up in flames.

Lucy could feel another wave of pleasure building up inside of her, but it seemed out of reach. She needed more. "Faster," she begged as she nipped at the scar on his neck.

His body shuttered at her breathy request as he increased his speed. This was better than anything he could have imagined. He wanted this whole experience to last all night, but he could feel the tension building in his lower stomach. He wanted her to cum one more time; he wanted to feel her inner wall squeeze his cock like it had on his fingers. He had to make this count.

Without pulling out of her; Natsu sat up on his knees, gripped her hips and lifted them off the mattress. He increased his speed as he drove into her even deeper. She gasped and thrust her hips against him as the tension inside her built even faster. He lifted another inch and she shrieked when he hit a spot she hadn't known existed. It was becoming too much, she was going to break and there would be nothing left of her!

The next thrust had her screaming his name again as he felt her core grip him tightly. He lost all control as he fell on top of her and started thrusting like crazy. Just as he felt the tension inside him snap and his own orgasm let loose, he bit her shoulder. He hears her moan again as her nails dug into his back deep enough to draw blood. They road their high for a while before Natsu's arms lost their strength and he collapsed beside her on the bed.

Turning on her side, she wrapped an arm around his waist as he pulled her against his chest. They were sweaty, sticky and probably smelled bad, but they couldn't care less. In that moment, everything was perfect.

"Now I'm really starving," Natsu chuckled as he kissed the bite mark on her shoulder.

"And I really need a bath, but I don't think I can walk."

"I'll carry you, but I want another minute like this," he said as he trailed his fingers over her skin.

Lucy snuggled closer to him. "Do you want to join me? I'll cook after we're done."

"Hmm, Lucy dinner, that sounds great." He kissed her lips; he couldn't seem to get enough of her. "You know, Igneel told me once that I would find a mate someday and when I did, she would become my whole world. I didn't believe him, of course cause what could be more important than fire, food and fighting?" Natsu took her left hand in his right, matching up their soul mate marks. "I am so glad I was wrong."
