Chapter 2: Catching up.
Lucy's (POV)
Natsu hasn't said a single word for a while now. I don't blame him, I did just tell him that I'm pregnant. His face expression wasn't surprised nor was it angered, it showed disappointment.
"Natsu..."
"How long?" He asked interrupting me.
"What?" I asked slightly confused.
"How long have you known?"
"About this..." He added.
"Almost a month." I answered.
"So a month." He said with a depressed tone of voice. "Did you not want to tell me?" He asked.
"Natsu that's not it at all. I wanted to tell you but I didn't know how. Before I left that night... It wasn't... It took me two months to realize..."
"Realize what!!!" He shouted.
"To realize that I wanted to be more than friends. I don't want to be just a guild-mate. I don't want to be the friend you had a one time thing with." I cried.
"But Luce... You were never just a guild-mate. You were not just a friend that... Your my Lucy I thought I made that clear to you." He spoke. "I guess I didn't try hard enough."
He was saddened but not because of the pregnancy more than likely it's because I left and didn't tell him when I found out. All of a sudden I felt winded. I realized that Natsu picked me up and then sat me down on the couch.
"You should sit. It can't be good for you to be standing for too long." He said.
"That's it? No big freak out? No, why didn't you tell me?! Or, What took you so long?! Maybe a, Is it even mine?!" I stuttered, kind of freaking out.
"It has to be mine... And I don't blame you for not telling me. And..."
"Natsu I Know that isn't..."
"I mean it. But Luce this doesn't change how I feel. You still left."
"Yeah. Hey, Natsu?"
"Yeah?" He answered.
"What does this mean?"
"It means that we live together. We raise this baby together. We get married. Got any problems with that?" He stated crossing his arms.
"You don't seem like you're happy with this." I stated.
"Well I am. I'm just... I'm just sorry it all happened like this." He replied.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Well... I mean all of this... In all honesty it would be better to take things one step at a time right?" He answered. "I wanted to at least get settled before we get more in depth. You know what I mean."
"Oh... Right sorry."
"Don't apologize. There is no reason to." He said placing his hand on my shoulder. "Luce I forgive you, okay? Just please don't ever leave me like that ever again. Promise me." He said looking deeply into my eyes.
"Natsu, do you love me?" I asked a little worried of his answer.
"Idiot, you think we'd be here If I didn't?" He said a tint of red appearing on his cheeks.
I looked at him with a smile. "I get it." I stood up and was about to head out but he caught my wrist.
"Where do you think you are going? I meant what I said. You live here now."
"So you decide for me now?"
"No you can decide for yourself... But I'll decide for my family." He stated pulling me into a hug. "If you think I will let you go again you are mistaken." He added. "I love you... Not because I have to but because I want to." He stated.
He pulled me to him and our lips connected. His lips were soft and warm just like before. His tongue brushed against my bottom lip and I invited him in willingly. Taking the message his tongue invaded my mouth and danced in perfect harmony with mine. We finally pulled apart for air.
"Wow... Lets do that again." I stated with a smile and I pulled our lips together once again.
Natsu's (POV)
I know she left. I know she's pregnant. I know she putt off telling me. I know all of this and yet I don't care. I don't care about any of it. She's back in my arms. She's here. She's not gonna leave. This woman will be the end of me.
I lead her to the bedroom our lips never loosing contact. I laid her down on the bed and hovered over her. I pulled away from her lips and looked down at her.
It is just like before. Something about her always makes me feel this way. Is it her skin? Is it her eyes? Whatever it is I just can't get enough.
"Lucy, I'm gonna love you with all my being." I pledged.
"I don't doubt that, not even a little. Natsu... Make love to me." She said pulling me close.
Our lips rejoined once more and things escalated from there. That night was amazing just the two of us.
I woke up to the glare of the sun I turned over to see that Lucy wasn't there. I freaked out and ran out into the living room and searched for her.
"LUCY!" I called in a shout.
I heard a noise from the bathroom. As I got closer I realized it was Lucy gagging.
"Luce I'm coming in."
"No don't... I don't want you see me like this." She cried.
"I don't care about what you say. I wasn't asking for your permission." I said while opening the door. I walked over to her and just like I did yesterday I held her hair back.
"I'm sorry I'm such a burden." Lucy chuckled.
"Oh shush... You're pregnant, not a burden. You feeling better?" I asked.
"Yeah but now I'm hungry." She remarked.
"What do want?" I asked while helping her stand and regain balance.
"I think Pancakes are the only thing that I can hold down at the moment." She stated.
"Alright you sit, I'll make food." I said.
"You can cook?" she asked in a jokingly way.
"When I want to."
I went into the kitchen and she followed me. I turned to look at her and she shrugged.
"What? You think I'm gonna miss this? Oh no we wanna see our Natsu in action." She stated.
"You're weird." I said while rolling my eyes.
"Oh yeah kinda how you like to watch me sleep or how you like to smell my hair... Don't think that I've never noticed." She teased.
"Lets go back to you. what about when I'm shirtless and you stare at my abs, huh?" I remarked.
"You've copped a feel before!" She spoke.
"I have not!"
"Yes you so have!"
"I don't know what you're talking about." I said turning to start on pancakes.
"Just so you know I don't only look at your abs. I also look at your scars so hmph." She pouted crossing her arms.
"Shut up and watch." I said.
"Gladly." She responded.
So I guess this is my life now. Lucy is kinda my fiance. We are now living together and we are having a baby. It's such a happy story right?
Wrong, there's still allot of catching up to do.
Not to mention, Now there's another reason to be sorry.
