When Cobra woke up, he realised a few things.

He really could get drunk, even if only for a short while, and that people hadn't been kidding when they said that hangovers were hell. He had a wicked headache, his mouth was parched, and he felt twenty times heavier than usual.

Beds were fucking great. He had, in twenty six years of his life, slept on a bed only few times. What with the Tower of Heaven, Brain, prison and now Crime Sorciere, beds was something missing from his life except for some few special occasion. Like right now.

Music, sweet and clear, music was filling his ears. He was so used to waking upto the melancholy of the blueberry, that he felt like he was in heaven right now.

He was naked, and there was an arm draped over his waist. Soft, extremely soft, skin was touching him, softer than the cotton sheets over him, softer than even the pillow under his head, and definitely softer than his lips. He had checked last night.

He turned his head to see a blonde head and barely parted lips. Big, caramel eyes were staring back at him. Her lips cracked a smile. "Morning, Er-Cobra." So she understood, good. He nodded at her in approval. "I am sure you want to freshen up, my bathroom is that way. I'll get started on breakfast. Any requests?" Her voice was still cracking at the edges. "Surprise me."

He collected his boxers from the floor, while she giggled as her head ran through all the options. "You know, it will be hard to surprise me since I can hear everything you just considered." She gasped and mentally berated herself while he chuckled as he made to the bathroom. He really wanted to brush his teeth, but he didn't have a toothbrush.

He saw a pink and white toothbrush in a holder at the sink. He cackled at his brilliant plan. God why do I even let that fire breather in my house! My food stock is wiped clean! Ugh what will I do? Wait, what was that breeze? Yikes I am still naked! Holy hell Lucy, did you plan to cook for him in your birthday suit? Or could I? Hmmm... Cobra stood at attention when he heard that, an image already forming in his mind.

He didn't even realise he was drooling till it landed on his naked chest.

Still in his boxers, he staggered to her dining table,, and almost jumped when he saw the maid. The headache was making it difficult for him to focus on his surroundings, and so he hadn't heard her pop up. "Thanks Virgo, you're the best!" The maid simply nodded and vanished.

In the time she had been there, Cobra gleaned that she was heavily into sadism and masochism. Her daydreams of Lucy tying her up and whipping her were by far the most sanest though he had heard. He remembered that even Angel's spirits had been a little off. Maybe they were all crazy, like Fairy Tail mages.

He did notice, much to his disappointment, that Lucy had decided against cooking in nothing but a apron.

"I should tell you I am a vegetarian." He picked up an apple from her table and took a bite. "I guessed as much." At that he turned to her, shocked. He has, like the others, a very strong sense of smell. That combined with how a lot of plants tend to be poisonous, it really makes sense that he is a vegetarian. Okay, Cobra was impressed. That didn't happen often. Lucy was smart and he gave her the credit. " Good girl, you worked it out."

"So, you're not even an eggetarian?" She didn't even look his way, she kept cutting stuff. Were they actual raspberries he smelled or was it her? "Nah, eggs are okay. How will I have cakes and other sweets otherwise?" She laughed and turned. "Ever heard of baki- oh no you don't! Get off the table!" Cobra got up and went to her, standing inches away from her. Lucy, this is it. Don't show the fact that you want to jump his bones. His hair is so wild, yet it suits him. Ah woman get a grip! But his lips are so inviting. Glare him down! Cobra raised the apple to his lips, and slowly bit into it. The other side of the apple brushed against her lips, which were still looking a little bruised. He could smell her arousal, but he didn't make a move. He didn't really want to risk someone from her guild coming in and see them at it, he was sure the psycho hammer-wielder would cut of his dick if she found out.

"Cobra, go wear some clothes. I am not having you sit on my table with nothing but boxers." Her voice was soft, she barely whispered the words. Not that it mattered since Cobra could hear them perfectly. "I don't have pants anymore. You broke the zip and ripped it in half." Why was he whispering too? "Virgo got you new one's." The distance between their lips was too short. He could feel her hot breath on his lips, smell the strawberries in her breath.

"I should wear them then." Cobra stepped away. His heart was pounding too hard. The blonde was affecting him too much. At the back of his he registered that now the room smelled of Cobra, even Lucy did. Fuck, any dragonslayer would guess what had happened last night.

The guild would kill him.

Without really noticing he grabbed the pants on the bed and slipped into them. Pulling the shirt he had given to Lucy yesterday over his body, he went back to the table. Lucy, just pretend like nothing happened. Nothing happened. Did anything happen?

So she didn't want to acknowledge the tension in th air. Who was he to deny that to her? "So, you have successfully kept the information of the breakfast with yourself. When will I get me surprise? I am starving, you really wore me out last night." Her musical laugh filled the room. "It is really difficult to hide this from you, really. I just have to constantly think about something else." Like you. Like your tongue in my mouth. Like your fingers teasing. His mouth starting watering at her thoughts.

Thankfully she set the plates at that moment and Cobra could pretend the drool was due to the food.

The woman had him salivating a lot.

"I hope you like crêpes!" She beamed at him, and slid something in his plate from a pan. Cobra stared at the food, curious. Sniffing once he got to know it was mostly floor, egg and sugar with lots of berries and whipped cream topped on it. "So, this is a crêpe?"

Lucy's jaw dropped. "You've never had a crêpe? Well, stop looking at it so suspiciously! It's not like it's poisoned or something." At that Cobra looked at her, amused, waiting for her to get it. She didn't disappoint. After two seconds she slapped her palm to her forehead. "Ugh, stupid me! Do you want some poison in it?" Cobra smirked at her. "Really, you just proved the 'stupid blonde' stereotype. And as for poison, what do you have?" She opened a cabinet. "Right now all I have is bleach. Want some?"

"Yeah sure. To drink." She nodded and poured some in a mug. As she handed him the mug, he heard her thoughts. From now, this is Cobra's mug. I can't have drinking from a mug which had something poisonous previously. Cobra would definitely make some 'stupid blonde' joke over my grave. He choked on his bleach. And a warm feeling spread across his body when she decided to keep the mug as his. It meant future visits were expected.

After pouring some orange juice for herself, she too sat down. "So, did you enjoy last night?" This time it was Lucy's turn to choke. After a lot of coughing she finally got a grip on herself. "Y-Yeah, I enjoyed. Did you?" Taking a bite of the crêpe, he said, "I did. Definitely. Out of all the women I have been with, your were the best." This was really good, he would definitely ask her how the make crêpes later.

Oh, was I? Maybe he is just being polite. Actually, what am I now to him? Lover? Do I like him? Wait, are we even friends? Were the previous women friends? I wonder, how many women has he been with? Her mind definitely went a mile a minute. And as for the number of women he has been with, he will make sure she never gets to know. But her question intrigued him. Did he like her? "You know, my underwear that you tore up so conveniently was pretty expensive." He smirked at her. "Next time, don't wear such expensive stuff." So there will be a next time? Lucy, calm down. And what is wrong with him? Doesn't he know that cheap lingerie looks like shit? "No, I didn't know that. Please by all means, continue wearing the expensive ones." Her face reddened as she realised that he had been listening to her thoughts.

After finishing up with breakfast, they made to the guild. Lucy summoned some weird snowman and cuddled him all the way, as they walked in silence. But halfway he felt something soft slip into his hand and looked up to see that it was her hand. Their fingers interlocked on their own, while Cobra's heart threatened to jump out of his rib cage. It was when they were just about to reach that Cobra saw the bite on her neck. Thanks to his pointed canines, there were two punctures in the flesh, surrounded by the largest hickey he had ever seen in his life.

He would have apologized, but it didn't hurt her. And he did want the whole wide world to know that he had given the girl next to him mind-blowing pleasure. So he didn't say anything.

The moment they reached the guild, by mutual agreement they disconnected their hands. Lucy bounded to the bar, while Cobra looked for his guild mates. But before he could do anything he heard a sound that must be chaos personified and he turned to see Natsu was barreling towards him, with the other male dragonslayers of the guild in tow. He grabbed Cobra's hand and pulled him to the corner of the guild.

"What is it, you flaming twat?" He shook his hand free from the fire mage's hand. "Be quiet! You know Wendy fuckin' fainted when you guys entered?" This was the first time he had spoken to the iron dragonslayer one on one. "So, what am I to do about that?"

He heard bones cracking. The idiot is asking for it. I'll shock him till that overactive dick of him remains flaccid, permanently. "What is it spark plug? Sad that I beat you to tap brig- titties over there?" At that the mage growled and Natsu hit his arm. "Don't talk about Lucy like that! She doesn't deserve it!"

He has an asshole complex, that's his problem. But bunnygirl is a fucking angel, and I'll be damned if I let her continue talking about her like that.

What was Luce thinking when she slept with Cobra? I'll ask her later. She looks happy, so I'll let it slide. Cobra's eyes widened when he heard Natsu's thoughts. So there really were people who were okay with him liking Lucy.

He wasn't stupid, he had come to the realisation that he liked the girl. She had a dry sense of humour which he liked, and let's not forget the mind boggling sex. How she did it he didn't know, but the fact remained that she was good. She also had to be the most kind-hearted person he had ever had the (mis)fortune to meet, and she was intelligent. Very. He was very particular about that point.

"I know." He stared straight into Gajeel's eyes. "It's done. I slept with her, it's not like she really wants me to date her so something. Don't get your panties in a knot." Just as he made to leave, Natsu placed his hand on Cobra's shoulder. "What if she did want to date you? What would do then?"

As much as Cobra wanted to give a snarky reply, something in the fire dragonslayer's eyes made him stop. He couldn't hear what he was thinking thanks to the cluster fuck that was his soul. "I would worship her like the goddess she is. Now, fuck off." Natsu nodded while Gajeel and Laxus looked shocked.

Good luck Cobra. Great, now he could hear. He simply scoffed at Natsu.

"Cobra! Where had you gone off yesterday?" Ah, blueberry was back to hound his ass. "None of you business. The bigger question here is why do you reek of warrior lady right there?" His face turned as red as his tattoo. God, don't think about it Jellal. Don't! Don't think about how I was wrapped around her tongue.

"So, you were wrapped around her tongue. Enjoy finally getting laid?" His expression blanched. Well, Erza's got a dominant streak, but it wasn't bad. Cobra cackled evily, "Jellal, that's gold." Now blueberry looked surprised. "Y-You said my name!"

"Yeah, I did. Why, dominatrix didn't allow you to speak her's?" He stormed of from Cobra and sighed. Was it some law of nature that Cobra has to be an asshole? "YES IT IS!"

"Hey Erik." The whisper in his ear sent shivers down his spine. He turned to face caramel eyes. "Hey Bright Eyes." His smile will be the end of the world. Vaginal juice will flood Earthland. "I like the way your mind works." Lucy blushed a little, but didn't leave. "Do you want something to eat?" Cobra pretended to ponder over it. "What's on the menu?"

"Well, I have some ingredients for another crêpe. Whipped cream, chunks of fruits. Sadly no flour." Her soul washed over him, the music luring him inside her. "Then where will you put the cream?" Her eyes were positively sparkling, living up to the name he had given her. "On me."

Before Cobra could reply a scream tore through. They both turned to see a gaggle of girls hovering near them. Cobra heard their thoughts and prayed to every god possible that they would go away. Lucy glared at the females of the guild. Mira, take your gathering somewhere FAR from us, or I'll make sure the entire guild knows about you and Laxus. Of course, that will be after I give you a taste of your own medicine. I'll bend you over a table and whip you senseless. Gotta thank Gemini for that bit of information, really. I didn't know you liked to do that to other people. And surprisingly Mira instantly backed away, as though able to hear her thoughts as well. Or maybe it was her glare which promised an early demise.

Cobra stared at her for a long time before he started laughing. The entire guild felt silent as they heard, for the first time, Cobra laugh. It was no evil cackled, it was a full humoured laugh. The deep baritone he produced vibrated right down Lucy's body, settling somewhere south. Cobra eventually stopped laughing enough to speak.

"Bright eyes, you are seriously different than what I thought." After the embarrassment of being caught red handed died down, her eyes lit up with mirth. "Well, yeah. But I was provoked." I am sure you can do the same to me, get me bending over. The minx knew exactly what she was doing.

"So, you were saying something about eating crêpes? I'd like that very much."

Cobra and Lucy made to go out but a hand rested itself on her shoulder. "Sorry Lucy, as much as I like Cobra interacting with another human normally, we have to go. Now." Cobra sighed. He knew that blueberry was right in leaving early, but that didn't mean he was supposed to like it. Lucy stop being so disappointed. It's not like it is the end of the world! She was disappointed?

"See you around, Cobra." Her voice was dead, not at all like her chirpy self he had become used to. "See you. Bye." Even her soul had slowed down, playing a heart wrenching morose tune. He grabbed the cloak being offered by Sorano and and put in on. After Jellal bade his Thor wannabe sweetheart one final goodbye, they left the guild.

Everyone was sad.

He could hear the melancholic tune of Jellal's soul resonate in all the members of Crime Sorciere. Sorano's and Meredy's souls were missing their new friend/fellow matchmaker Mira. Midnight was pondering over the sudden friendship he had struck with the seith mage of the guild. Jellal was calling out to Erza, his heart torn to pieces.

And Cobra couldn't get the blonde celestial mage out of his head.

He was so engrossed in thoughts of her, he started imagining she was calling him to stop. "Wait!" Her voice was sweet, like the rest of her, reminding him of bell chimes. "Cobra!" He let the memory of her soul wash over him, just wanting to get lost in her.

"ERIK!" He stopped dead in his tracks. He wasn't imagining her voice. The rest of his guild members heard her as well, and we're now waiting for him to go and kill her for saying his name out loud. He turned to see Lucy barreling towards him.

"Bright Eyes?" She crashed into him. They fell down in a flurry of his cloak, and she crashed her lips over his. Cobra responded instantly, savouring her taste. The moment he tasted her, the world faded into the background. It was like how it had been when he had been drunk yesterday.

It was only giggling that made him break up the kiss and help her get up. He ignored Meredy and Sorano, instead his full focus was on the girl in his arms. "Cobra, I like you. I really, really like you. I want to be with you. Natsu told me that if I like you I should stop you, so I did. And now you know."

Cobra's brain had stopped responding when she told him she liked him. Was she lying? No, her soul told him the same words she had said.

She liked him.

"Lucy, would you be my girlfriend?" He couldn't believe the words that had come out of his mouth, but he didn't regret them one bit. Her heart skipped a beat and she nodded at him. He still couldn't believe that she liked him and had just accepted to be his.

He smashed his lips over her's, his arms wrapping around her to raise her from the ground without breaking their contact. Her fingers tangled themselves into his hair, and she deepened the kiss. A cough behind him made him come back to Earthland and he put her on solid ground again. "Somebody could see you!" Jellal hissed.

"I don't care you fucking tramp stamp." But at that Lucy smacked his head lightly. "Cobra, I care. How am I supposed to kiss you if you end up being imprisoned again?" And then how will you have that crêpe I have promised?

"Point noted Bright Eyes. Now, scram. Blueberry is about to blow his trap because we are late. We'll come visit, I promise." After one final peck on his lips, Lucy turned back to go to her guild. Cobra felt strange without her warmth in his arms, but his mood was not hampered.

She was his.

It had been two weeks since Crime Sorciere's visit to Fairy Tail, and Lucy was waiting for the day they will come again. Cobra had promised her he would, so she didn't worry about it. And he talked to her sometimes, when Jellal contacted Erza through their communication lacrimas.

The guild was abuzz, more than usual. Lucy located the area of commotion as the bar and proceeded to it. "What's up guys?" At that everyone stopped talking and stared at her.

"Ah Lucy! We were looking for you! It seems someone has sent a parcel for you, with a note!" Mira handed her the note, and she read it.

Lucy,

Replacement for the one's I rendererd useless the last time. And yes, they are expensive.

I thought purple would suit you.

Wear them when I come, which will be in three days.

C.

PS- I didn't know your address, so I mailed it to the guild. Warn everyone not to open the packet in the guild, unless they want to spoil the innocent minds there. Especially the Skymaiden.

It seemed like Mira had read the note, because she hadn't opened the package, which now Lucy knew could only contain one thing. "So, can I have my parcel?" Mira beamed at her while the others looked at them curiously. "Who is it from Lucy?"

"Cobra." The only person she had told about her relationship was Natsu, and he hadn't told anyone else. He fully supported her, and as long as she was happy he didn't care.

But Lucy didn't care that much whether or not the whole guild knew. Apparently, for all the ogling she had done when Cobra had been here, Mira hadn't actually expected anything from them, and promptly fainted when his name left his lips.

Gathering her package she left the shocked guild, wanting to open and try the lingerie in privacy.

It's over guys! Lol, Mira is a total dominatrix if I ever saw one. But Erza too? Bwahaha.

Really hope Cobra wasn't too OOC.

LoadedEel- Thanks, I really tried to keep the flow, hope you liked it!

XxLunaNightingalexX- Omg, thankyou! It really boosted my morale when you said I have good writing! Hope you liked the ending!

Giki- Cobra and Lucy is my guilty (okay, not so guilty) pleasure, and I really love them together. I hope you liked this chapter!

LadyAllyssa- Well, I am still a novice to lemon's. I tried. Thank you for the praise though! *Blushing*

deltacaraman- I am really happy you liked it that much! We aim to please *wink*. And seriously, thank you. Just, thank you.

Kittenf- Awww, thanks! I hope you found the ending to your liking.

Fizz out.
