Long Time No See [Book 2, to OEIF]

Chapter 3- Take a Rest

Natsu's POV

"Land. Muah! Mu- PFFT. PFFT." I spit, trying to get the dirt off my lips and mouth.

"Tsk, idiot." Gray snickered.

"What did you call me?!"

"I called you an idiot!"

"You're one to talk, ice freak."

"How am an idiot?! I don't go around destroying every damn town I go to flamebrain."

"YOU TAKE THAT BACK!"

"Make me!"

Erza grabbed our ears and pulled down hard.

"FOC- ooo! Strawberry cake." She said and let go to walk over to the bakery.

"Saved by the...cake?" Gray says.

"Gray-sama! Gray-sama!"

"How the hell did you get here?!" Gray groaned as he shoved her face out of his.

"Juvia's Gray-dar helped her!"

"Your...what?"

I rolled my eyes at the two and walked forward towards the Mayor's house.

"Natsu, listen."

Not again...

Maybe they're right. Maybe I am going insane or have been these past 4 years. Maybe I need help.

"Please. Natsu."

"Luce...?" I say out loud but there's no response.

"Of course...what was I thinking?" I groan.

Head, please stop playing with me. It hurts like hell. More than when I think.

"So, that's the house?" Erza asked me as she ate her strawberry cake.

"Yep."

"What's up with you?" Gray asked, trying to get Juvia off of him.

"Aye! You would be talking back at Erza and then she would knock you out!"

"Natsu-san? Are you sick?"

"Juvia thinks Natsu is okay."

"Thank you, Juvia!" I say.

"That's it? Find a book?" Gray said.

"Hoo hoo yes!" Mr. E said.

"What book again?" I ask completely confused.

"'Another.' I am planning on giving it to my daughter but I can't find it. Hoo hoo."

"Can't find it or too lazy?" I ask but Erza smacks my head.

"I'm lazy. Hoo hoo." Mr. E said.

We all sweat drop.

He leads us to his library which was HUGE. HOW ARE WE GONNA FIND IT?!

"Good luck. Hoo hoo." He says before closing the door.

"Thanks. Hoo Hoo." Happy mocks.

"That isn't nice, tomcat." Carla scolds.

"I won't do it again if it upsets you! Want a fish?" Happy offers and Carla ignores him.

"Alright! I'm all fired up!"

"Natsu, Wendy, you two go look in the top shelves since you can fly. Gray and Juvia, help me down here." Erza commanded.
