"Ta-da." I mimicked Wendy and took something out of my pocket. I'll give you one guess: Yup. My Polaroid half. In it, Natsu was smirking with playful charcoal eyes. I gently put it together with the one that had my smile and there it was. The Polaroid.
It was as if the Polaroid was a promise; a promise for me to come back. I could still remember the night Natsu tore the Polaroid into two and give each of us a half, we kissing while crying under the Sakura Tree. I left days after that.
"Now that I'm back, there's no reason the halves should continue to be separated is there?" I asked Natsu, who was still staring at me and the Polaroid. The irony of it all was, after time and especially after the big break, the half that I kept was tear-stained, crumpled and slightly faded. It was lightly yellowed too. Natsu's half was the same.
Natsu shrugged and started counting off his fingers like some kindergarten kid. "I rather them stay separated. I just...well three divided by two is one and a half so--"
The innocent childlike Natsu was literally hard to resist. So I didn't. I walked right over to him, grabbed his face and kissed the corner of his mouth.
~Wendy's P. O. V. ~
Wow they're clueless. There's such thing as "fake sleeping". I'm currently peeking at the two hormonal teenagers who are reminiscing their little Polaroid game. Lucy just kissed Natsu~AWWWWWWW~
You might be thinking: "Wendy geez you're only 11 you're supposed to be more innocent than that"
Tough. I'm friends with the Mira. She might have taught me a thing or two about these. Andddddddd remember the hairpin? I put it on right before sleeping.
Yes, there's a camera attached.
Arigato, Mira.
I subtly move a little to position the pin better.
Ready.
Set.
Action.
~Lucy's P. O. V. ~
Soon as I pulled away, Natsu turned a wide eyed glance upon me. "What..." He tried to speak. "You looked so ignorantly adorable I just had to. And I love it when you talk math to me. It seems unlikely so it's incredibly attractive." I giggled. He smiled.
"As I was saying, since each person needs to have one and a half, might as well go with the current arrangement." He explained. I shrugged and nodded.
"Oh, by the way, when are you gonna wear that ring on your finger?" Natsu questioned. I instinctively reached to my necklace and closed my fingers over the pink ruby protectively. "Is that really something you should be asking me? Most girls let the guys slip the ring onto their finger." I frowned. "Oh. Okay." Natsu advanced towards me, undid the clasp of my necklace, slipped the ring out and fixed my necklace back. I immediately missed the the warmth, the occasional ruby glint and now doubted the promise it held. He got down on one knee; again.
"The last time I proposed to you, we got interrupted by impromptu tomato hunting. But this time it will be different. I can't make up a flowery speech on the spot now, it wouldn't have the same effect. I know it's weird to see me going down on one knee twice for you, but it has to be done.
"I don't want you to keep wearing it on your necklace; I want you to wear it on your ring finger, show the world you're married, and you're mine. I want to complete a proper proposal. Please let me have the honour of slipping it onto your finger and mark you mine."
~Wendy's P. O. V. ~
WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I GOT IT ON TAPE OMFG MIRA IS GONNA LOVE ME
I know I don't sound like an innocent 11 year old now BUT WHO CARES I JUST GOT A FAB-ASS NALU TAPE
~Lucy's P. O. V. ~
Tears fell from my eyes again and I wordlessly held my hand out. Natsu grinned his toothy beam and eagerly slipped it into my ring finger, not taking his eyes off me the whole time.
"It's been a privilege to know you, love you, and make you fall in love with me." Natsu whispered. I knelt on the ground and hugged him. "Who knew you could make such statements." I whispered back. He pulled away and tilted my chin up to look at him.
"I say it only to you."...
...was the last thing I heard before the kissing began.
~Wendy's P. O. V. ~
Ummm am I really supposed to see this they're not just French kissing each other they're groping. Natsu's hand has been under Lucy's shirt for a few seconds already and Lucy's hand was traveling all over Natsu's shirt-covered chest. Because I was nice, I turned the camera off and ended the videoing right when they started kissing.
Time to sleep. Give them a world of their own, a little dirty secret only they knew.
~Natsu's P. O. V. ~
We broke apart only when the grandfather clock at Jellal's living room chimed midnight. We panted while looking at each other red-faced.
"You're...so good...at that." Luce huffed.
"Wanna go again?" I beamed.
"No. Jesus Natsu it's like 12 now and we haven't even showered yet. Thank God we got Wendy to bed two hours ago." She declined. I pouted, then an idea flew into my head.
"Let's shower together!" I said cheerfully.
"IN YOUR DREAMS PERVERT" Luce whisper-shouted. "Geez Luce cool it. We're married." I stuck out my bottom lip. It was a little bloody now, seeing how Luce was hungrily biting on it a while ago. "Not officially. Gray said no touchy touchy until first night and already we've touched each other." Luce walked over to her bag and dug out a fresh change of clothes, then she went to Erza's room (yes. Erza has a room at Jellal's house. *wiggles eyebrows*) to borrow a towel. I followed her the whole time. "We haven't showered together or gotten into each others pants yet." I joked. Luce faced me with murderous eyes. "FIRST NIGHT YOU DESPERATE HORMONAL PERVERT" She hissed. I laughed. "Chill, I was kidding."
After we had both showered (separately, to my disappointment), we climbed into the guest room bed not before checking on Wendy for the last time. "Night Natsu." She murmured, snuggling up to me under the covers in that beautiful spaghetti strap, flowy, white lace nightgown.
~Lucy's P. O. V. ~
I hid my face in the tight white v neck he was wearing and inhaled his sharp mint smell that lulled me to sleep.
-timeskip, Sunday morning-
~Laxus' P. O. V. ~
"They never learn do they." I grumbled. My fiancé Mira was giggling dementedly and flitting around the sleeping couple, taking pictures. Just a while ago Wendy woke up, washed up and showed all the photos she took, including keepsakes. Mira almost died.
"It's convenient for us. Aw, look at them." Another female voice came. I turned to see Erza and Jellal. "Still, it's hard to believe Wendy would have done that. I mean, she was so innocent and adorable and shy when we first saw her." Levy commented, looking through the pictures of the couple with Gajeel. Gajeel looked like he was ready to attack one photo and draw mustaches all over it.
"Wake them up. Now." Yet another voice came. Wow every dipshit is an early riser. I turned to see Gray and Juvia. Gray was giving the sleeping couple a hard stony glare. "You need more ice Gray. They're just sleeping." I said. "Oh shut it Laxus. I heard Cana got drunk again. She's currently in my house hitting it up with some random guy named Bacchus." Gray glared at me.
"WHAT" I shouted. CANA MY COUSIN WITH A RANDOM GUY?
"I don't know man I was awoken at 2am in the night when Cana showed up all drunk with a weird man who was also drunk. The moment I opened the door to my new home they staggered in and fell asleep on the couch. I tried interrogating her but it was pretty much impossible so I gave up." Gray shrugged.
"I NEED TO GO NOW. GRAY, THE KEYS TO YOUR HOUSE." I shouted. "Hold up, I'll go home too. Gray, take me and Laxus." Lucy slowly stretched from the bed. "Okay." Gray shrugged and shoved his hands in his pockets and sauntering off. Lucy went to wash up and Juvia tagged along with Gray to start up the car engine.
"How about Natsu?" Levy asked. "Gihee. We leave him here and hide. When he wakes up, finds out bunny girl is gone and panicks, WE LAUGH IN HIS FACE." Gajeel roared. Everyone laughed. I sighed and got up upon seeing Lucy come out from the bathroom, completely oblivious to what any of them were saying.
"Cmon Blondie, we don't got all day. You coming Mira?" I motioned to the white haired girl sitting next to Erza. She nodded and stood up. The three of us walked to Gray's car in silence. Lucy sat at the front and we piled in at the back. Then Gray drove off.
Cana, you better not do anything stupid. Makarov and Gildarts will never let me hear the end of it.
~Gray's P. O. V. ~
"Here we are." I stopped the car. Laxus, who had been quiet as usual, flung open the car door and ran out, Mira on his heels. "GEEZ LAXUS DON'T RUIN MY CAR." I yelled after him. "He's hardly in such a hurry." Lucy murmured. "It is Cana after all. You never know what Cana can do. Or what Gildarts and Makarov would do when they find out Laxus failed to take care of Cana. They are cousins." I shrugged. Juvia got out, followed by Lucy and I.
"Wait, you just let Cana and a weird unknown guy crash our house two hours after midnight in their smashed up state? You didn't beat the crap out of the guy? Isn't that weird?" Lucy snapped. "Sorry for being too tired to do anything, plus when I tried to call out to Cana none of them replied me! Then they staggered right past me and into the guest room and locked the door. The only key I got was the house key because the stupid seller was UGH NEVER MIND LETS JUST GO IN AND QUESTION CANA" I groaned. Lucy huffed and stomped past me.
"Is Cana-san going to be okay? Juvia hopes Cana-san doesn't do anything rash." Juvia said softly. "We just have to trust she doesn't do that with the guy. I mean, she was drunk. Very drunk. Like those types who completely can't hold their liquor. Cana is never like that. She's just ditzy and all..." I muttered. Juvia grabbed my hand and dragged me in.
~Lucy's P. O. V. ~
"Holy shit what kind of smell is that?" I coughed. "The alcohol smell is strong." Laxus muttered and strode past me and to the guest room. He knocked. "Cana."
Silence.
"Cana." *knocks even louder*
Nothings happening.
"OKAY SCREW THIS FUCKIN DOOR" Laxus kicked the door down.
I lifted my collar to cover my nose, and then reached to my ears and slammed my hands over them just as Gray howled. "MY FUCKIN DOOR DIDNT OFFEND YOU BAST..."
As Gray trailed away, I looked up and dared myself to look into the room. Laxus and Gray breathed out a curse as Mira and Juvia gasped.
What the actual fuck.
Ohoho what ya doing Cana bringing boys home ey? Heck not even your own house girl you got guts 😂
Thanks for reading 🤗😚😚
