Mates

~A fairytale tell me what's your fantasy~

Lucy continued to delve into the book, her face turning redder and redder with each sentence.

If the dragon-

"Hiya Luce!" A voice interrupted her reading, making her nearly throw the book into the air. She immediately hid the book behind her back, her face feeling hot.

"Whatcha readin?" Natsu asked cautiously, raising his eyebrow. Lucy shook her head furiously, refusing to answer.

"N.. what are you talking about? Hahaha...well I gotta go!" She stuttered, running away as fast as she could, finding a place to hide. Natsu stared after her in complete confusion, but knew from experience that Lucy was just being her weirdo self. He didn't even feel like following her scent, knowing if she was hiding she really didn't want him to know.

"Hey Happy let's go fishing!" Natsu called cheerfully.

"Aye Sir! But wait, what about Lucy?" The cat blinked up to the dragon slayer. Natsu shook his head, slightly pouting.

"She's busy being weird. Let's go!" Natsu called over his shoulder as he ran out of the Guild. Happy soared out after his best friend, yapping about fish.

"Phew." Lucy sighed in relief. She looked down to the book in her hands only to blush, letting it fall to the floor like it burnt her.

Looking around, Lucy focused her sight on the one person she could talk to about this.

Gajeel.

Lucy silently sprinted over to the older dragon slayer, still blushing slightly. When she finally calmed her cheeks down she sat across from him as he tuned his guitar.

"Hey Gajeel..?" Lucy gulped down her embarrassment as he continued to fiddle with his guitar.

When he didn't respond she took this as a signal to continue talking. "Do dragon slayers have...mates?" She asked, averting her eyes. She was fiddling nervously in her seat., dying to sink into the floor.

"Yeah yeah yeah." Gajeel grumbled absently, making Lucy perk with interest. She thanked the older teen before rushing off, the heat coming back to her cheeks.

Gajeel looked up and blinked in confusion before shrugging his shoulders, going back to songwriting. "Yeah yeah yeah~"

x.i.i.x.

If this book is true that...I gotta get out of here! She rushed out of the Guild as fast as she could, running into something hard and warm.

"I thought you were doing something?" An upbeat tone asked. Lucy looked up to be mere inches from Natsu's own cheeky face, grinning down at her in amusement.

"I-I-I...no." She sighed in defeat, slouching her shoulders.

"Aw c'mon Lucy you sound like you don't wanna hang out with me!" Natsu pouted cutely, wrapping an arm around her shoulders, pulling her closer.

Attachment

Lucy blushed, pulling herself off of Natsu. Natsu stared at her in confusion before brushing it off, putting the back of his hand on her head. "Are you feeling okay?" He asked her.

"Y-yeah! Geez when did you start acting so mature.." She tried to lighten the tension. Natsu shrugged it off, thinking it wasn't worth the headache.

"Okay..." Natsu took Lucy's hand, running off to some store. Lucy stopped them in their tracks before he could even walk, staring down at their linked hands with a red face.

"Something wrong?" Natsu asked impatiently. Lucy shook her head, looking away while he pulled her away.

x.i.i.x.

Natsu and Lucy stopped at the fountain, licking their ice creams in content.

A few wolf whistles were thrown Lucy's way, making her blush. Natsu huffed at the obnoxious boys as they continued their flattery.

"Get lost!" Natsu roared, finally snapping. He blew fire their way, making them cower away.

Easily jealous

Lucy dropped her ice cream on the ground before running away, head down. She had blushed enough for the past two years. Natsu followed her to her house, finally catching her arm when she was in her room.

"What is wrong with you!?" Natsu demanded, shaking her wrist. Lucy looked away, still blushing.

He backed her up against a wall, glaring down at her for an answer. Lucy's eyes widened and she began to claw frantically at him, confusing him further.

"Stop! Stop!" Lucy screeched, trying to Lucy Kick him, but sadly her foot couldn't reach. Natsu pulled back at her frantic look.

"What's going on?" He exclaimed, demanding an answer and fed up with her weird antics.

"I-You-Dragon-don't touch me!" She shrilled, pushing his face away from hers. She was absolutely humiliated! Never in her life had she been so embarrassed.

Seeing Lucy becoming more panicked with each passing second, Natsu pulled her to his chest, letting her calm down before pulling away and softly demanding answers again.

More affectionate

"What's happened Luce?" Natsu asked gently, caressing her face with gentleness she didn't know he possessed. She floundered for a word for a moment before taking in a deep breath and letting it out.

"W-well I read this book about Dragons and...I asked Gajeel and he said...it was true and so...when you..and I...!" Lucy was too embarrassed to say the word, blushing deeply.

The corner of Natsu's lips trembled spasmodically, a guttural laugh turning boisterous within his throat as he burst out laughing, knowing what Lucy was referring to.

"Ahahaha Lucy! Oh Luce..ahaha!" Natsu continued to laugh at the stomping blonde as she vented her anger before banging on his chest in protest.

"Uwaah~ Stop it Natsu you're so mean to meee!~" She cried, crying crocodile tears. Natsu grinned down at the girl, catching her arms with one swift movement before pinning her once again onto the wall, her arms over her head.

"N-Natsu?" Lucy gulped, now nervous. The fire mage grinned humorously at the celestial mage, his fangs showing somewhat intimidatingly.

"Ne, Lucy? Why did you wanna know so badly?" He asked somewhat suggestively, his grinning becoming creepier and creepier to her each passing second. A sweat broke out on her forehead as she looked each other way, looking for a way out of this without being too humiliated.

"Because..uh-b-because..you're my best friend?" She tried nervously, her eyes darting around. Natsu rolled his eyes, pressing her harder against the wall.

"Or maybe because you wanted-"

"Love you bestie~" Lucy tried pitifully to get out before he could say that. It wasn't true...right? Right.. RIGHT?!

"Ponyoyo~"

"Not like that pervert!" Lucy growled, trying harder to break out of his grip.

"Just confess your sins~" Natsu sung something totally unrelated and random.

"How is it a sin?" Lucy shrieked. Natsu, seeing his fun was up, let go and laughed at the flustered blonde as she repositioned herself.

"Well if you really wanna know, no, we don't really have like...mates. Well I guess we do, if you look at it a certain way but-"

"In the book it said they were really overprotective and stuff..is it like that with dragon slayers?" Lucy asked, straight to the point.

"I guess...nah. It's the same with other people. I didn't turn into a dragon, I just possess the qualities of one!"

"Coulda fooled me." Lucy grumbled.

"Hey!" Natsu protested, leaving Lucy giggling. She suddenly stopped, her head tilted curiously.

"Ne Natsu...do you know who your mate is?"

"I uh...well u-uhm.." Natsu spluttered, and get this-blushed. Natsu Dragneel was left blushing just by this simple question, mesmerizing Lucy into a giggling fit.

"So you're not gonna go around raping people?"

"What the hell!" Natsu protested hotly. Lucy giggled again, her cheeks slightly dusted with pink.

"Well the book said.."

"Alright where is this book? You read the perverted of things!"

"Do not!"

"Do too!"

"Do not!"

"Do to-"

"Shut up and answer the question!" Lucy snapped, crossing her arms with a heavier blush. Natsu snickered at her look before his eyes widened, his own face turning pink.

"Uh um..well er-why should I tell you? It's personal!" Natsu stuck his tongue out at her childishly, grinning victoriously.

"Aw c'mon watsu~" Lucy pouted cutely, really wanting to know. Natsu looked away from her, trying everything in his power to keep from saying.

"I already said we don't have mates! I'm a dragon slayer not a dragon!" Natsu growled, trying to throw her off. Lucy narrowed her eyes at him, suspicious.

"Then who do you like? Ooh-oh! Can I guess?" Lucy asked, suddenly excited by the challenge. Natsu, seeing this was the only way to satisfy the blonde, nodded, sighing.

"Lisanna?"

"Funny."

"Erza?"

"Scary."

"Mhm...! Gray!"

"WHAT THE HELL?" Natsu nearly fell over from shock. Lucy smiled innocently at him.

"Well you guys fight a lot..who knows it might be because you're a ga-"

"Finish that sentence and you'll find yourself at the bottom of the river." Natsu warned, making Lucy bite her tongue to keep in her laughs. Natsu huffed in annoyance, fuming over that disgusting thought.

After a while of guessing nearly every girl in the Guild, she only had three options left.

"Levy-chan?" Lucy asked in surprise.

"No she's with Gajeel."

Lucy giggled at how nonchalantly the dragon slayer said it, continuing to think. It couldn't be..no..

"Wendy?" Lucy asked, startled and slightly disgusted. Natsu screwed his nose up in disgust, shaking his head.

"I give up!" Lucy wailed, falling onto her bed lazily. Natsu chuckled at her, rolling his eyes.

"There's only one person left idiot!" Natsu exclaimed.

"Whooo?"

"You really are a dense idiot." Natsu sighed, shaking his head slightly. Lucy narrowed her eyebrows at him, annoyed.

He knows I like him...why won't he just tell me? Lucy pouted cutely, looking up to Natsu with her big, doe brown eyes, making them extra innocent. Natsu visibly gulped, knowing he couldn't get out of her trap.

"Tell me pweaase? I won't tell her, promise!"

"That's impossible."

"Are you saying I can't keep secrets?"

"Ah you idiot! Come here!"

"Wu-mffh!" Natsu pulled her forward forcefully, claiming her lips with his. He kissed her needily for a moment, the edge softening down until it was a sweet kiss. Natsu pulled back for air, watching as Lucy looked around dazed. He chuckled at her look while she put two and two together before her eyes widened in realization and her cheeks flared.

"M-me?" She looked to the comforter, not able to hide her giddy smile.

"It's always been you."
