SLEEPY EVENING

© 2019; berry

Summary;

Natsu wants cuddles. That's it, that's the problem.

Natsu knows now what all the other men in Fairy Tail mean when they talk about their girls, because Natsu feels the same way towards Lucy nowadays.

He's quite envious they didn't let him on the cuddling secret, though.

Because yes, cuddling with Lucy feels great, and when they've both come back from a mission that was way more exhausting than what it should have been, then they don't only feel great, but Natsu thinks they might just be his third favourite thing after food and fights.

"Luce," he lets out a whine, "let's go to sleep already, you can shower in the morning, can't you?"

But obviously not, because Lucy doesn't come out of the bathroom for at least twenty more minutes.

(He's already had a shower at her insistence, but he was there for five minutes tops.)

He wants his cuddles, so sue him. He's already on the bed, waiting, and he wants to rest and cuddle and have Lucy by his side, what's so wrong with that?

Nothing, that's what.

So why can't I get it?, he thinks, pouting slightly.

And then Lucy, sleepy as well, steps on her bedroom with her pyjamas already on, makes Natsu move towards the window without as much as a word and proceeds to cover herself to sleep.

And then Natsu grins, slips under the covers as well and puts his arms around her, dropping a kiss on her forehead before sighing contently and closing his eyes.

Truly, one of his favourite things in the world.
