Lucy hummed as she placed her backpack at her feet as she sat down on a small brick retaining wall that sat around a large tree, bending over her bag, her blonde hair falling down in front of her face and blocking the rest of the world from view, busying herself in fishing out her lunchbox from the bag.

"I think you must be new here."

She smirked at the sound of the familiar voice, tucking her hair behind her ear before sitting back up, setting her lunch box in her lap, looking right into onyx eyes.

"I am."

"I bet someone as cute as you needs someone to give a tour."

She smiled larger as her guest sat down next to her;

"That's nice of you, but I have a boyfriend."

"He's a lucky bastard, too."

Natsu leaned in close, placing his arm around her and pulling her in close so that their thighs were flush against each other, fingers slowly creeping towards the now open lunchbox that sat on Lucy's lap, giving a wild smirk as his fingers reached one of the sandwiches within, pulling it out with a laugh and scooting away while shoving it in his mouth.

"Oi! Natsu!"

Smirk slowly turned into a smile while diving back towards Lucy, who give a little yelp and turned away, covering her lunchbox with her hand.

"Come on, Luce', I'm hungry!"

"Eat your own lunch then!"

Large arms in curled her waist, putting a forceful stop to her attempt at fleeing and squirming, Natsu's head fitting in the crook of Lucy's neck as if his chin and her shoulder were designed for each other.

"Already did. I want yours now."

"You're such a pig."

"Dragon, I'm a dragon."

"Sureee~, whatever."

"I'm the dragon, and you're the princess… and if the princess doesn't give the dragon her food the dragon just might have to kidnap her."

Lucy laughed at his sentence, batting his hand away when he tried to dive at her food again.

"Is this dragon causing you trouble, Princess Lucy?"

Movements stopped at the sound of the new voice, both eyes falling on a topless teen that stood leaning on the wall of the school that ran along the walkway they were "eating" in.

"He's trying to take my food, Sir Gray!"

Shaking his head with a little smile playing on his features Gray moved slowly forward, hands in his pockets while Lucy squirmed more, Natsu's grip loosening so he could tickle her sides.

"Not even the Sir Gray the Ice-Princess can save you now!"

"Oi!"

Lucy's giggles from the tickles turned into a full blown laugh at Natsu's comment and the glare that Gray was now giving him, but this momentary lap in concentration allowed Natsu to sneak his hand into her lunch box once more, stealing the apple that had been rolling around in there.

"Hey! Natsu! Not fair!"

Natsu didn't reply, he simply smirked and took a large bite out of his new prize, chewing it slowly and Lucy heard her stomach give a loud growl.

"Stealing Lucy's food better not become a trend, Natsu."

Natsu suddenly stood upright, a bit of apple getting caught in his throat and causing him to cough, Gray giving him hard smack on the back, not to be helpful, just because he could. Eyes watering he glanced up at the scarlet haired woman before him.

"I – it won't, Erza!"

Lucy smiled before giving a contented sigh, in the end, meeting these three people she had met through an online roleplaying game was the best thing she had ever done. Or maybe it was just meeting that one person, that was now giving his "rival" a death stare, was the best thing she had ever done.

A/N: That's it everyone! As much as I would love to keep going I just dont have anything else to add that would make Online-Offline better without having to introduce more characters. I have an idea for a sequel, but I dont know how thats going to work out. But what I DO plan on doing is doing some little oneshots with other characters in this universe. I want to explore the relationships of Gray and Juvia, Erza and Jellal and Levy and Gajeel a little more so I will be writing those. This is Lucy and Natsu's story and thats why I havent added them in here.
