Chapter 15: We can all have fun; the second date!
I still need some time to think about the ending. So..........please don't hate me when you do read it, which will probably be the next chapter.
So, if you guys ever want more Fairy Tail fanfictions, check out @Cryptic_eyes, she has absolutely the best Fairy tail fanfics, (of which I know). You should totally check her out. And no, I am not getting paid for this, I just decided that I should advertise her books.
And i decided to do a double update 2day. Yay! Don't forget, kind of a filler chapter, for me. You decide.

Chapter 15: We can all have fun; the second date!
Natsu's pov
"Target is moving swiftly to Dragon's area!"
"Roger that! Wait-----! Target has changed course!"
"Keep a close eye on it!"
"Target is in the middle! We'll pounce on it together!"
"Roger!"
We all jumped out of trash cans.....trees......space........air and landed on the little creature beneath us. Strangely, it got out and started running in between people, causing a ruckus.
"Damn cat!" cursed Gray.
"Hey!!" said Happy and Charle in unison.
"Maybe it'll stop when it sees Happy or Charle." said Lucy. That was a brilliant idea. Happy went forward, and stood in front of the feline. It looked confused, as it tilted its head.
I bet it must be like 'Why does this cat have wings?'
Hehe, I took this chance to creep up behind it.
"Got you!" I yelled, as I jumped onto it and grabbed it. It immediately started scratching my face, and boy, did it hurt!
"It's a wonder how you keep Happy." said Erza. I got fed up with the cat scratching me, as I flew it onto a roof. Everyone's jaws dropped to the floor.
"You ass! We have to start all over again!" exclaimed Gray, as he ran after the cat, using his ice magic. Lucy walked past me.
"Remind me, why did Happy choose this job?" she asked. Happy just laughed.
"Maybe Charle could go and attract it." he said. This earned him a hit on the head from non other than Charle herself. However, he may be right. Wendy urged to Charle to stand in front of the wondering cat, and after much fussing, she did.
The strange this was, when the cat saw her............we realized that since it was a male...............yeah, we thought of that after the cat pounced on poor Charle. We dragged her out quickly, and thankfully, the male cat didn't...........try anything.
"I'm never doing that again!" exclaimed Charle.
"Yeah, well we did manage to catch the cat." said Lucy, as we all glanced at the tied up garbage bag with an animal inside.
"I hope he likes the garbage dump." said Happy, steam rising from his head.
We returned the cat to its owner, who, was confused as to why her cat was tied up in a bag. We told her not bother, as she paid us and we went on our way.
ON THE WAY
"Ne, Lucy? Do you want to hang out tonight?" i asked suddenly.
"Sure, it'll be fun to have a date!" She said smiling. Gray stopped walking.
"So......why was it a 'casual outing' for us?" he asked, referring to the time he went on a 'date' with Lucy.
"Ummmm........-----look! We've already arrived!" said Lucy, quickly changing the subject. We all sweat-dropped. I held Lucy outside.
"So where do you want to go?" i asked her.
"Surprise me! We'll meet later at mine at around 6-ish?" she said. I nodded her head, and Lucy skipped inside and sat next to Levy.
I sat at my team's table, and all the while, Gray was mumbling about the 'date'. Poor chap, haha, i want to laugh!
"You got blown off!" i said, rofling on the floor. But wait, doesn't ROFL mean to roll on the floor laughing? That means I'm doing twice. HAHAHAHAHA, PROOF THAT IT'S SO FUNNYY!!!
"Shut up Flame brain!"
"Haaaa? Wanna go at it, popsicle?"
"Bring it on dragon breath!"
"Snowman!!"
LUCY'S POV
Those two were at it again. I sighed as i dropped my head on the counter. My stomach felt weird, like i was nervous. Butterflies! But why do i have them?
I felt a nudge on my shoulder.
"Nervous for the date, are we?" asked Levy.
"Wha---? How do you know about that?" i asked her, quite shocked with her discovery.
"Dude, Natsu was so loud on the way to the guild!" she said laughing.
"That ass...." i muttered, "And no, i am not nervous................i think."
She got up quickly with a big-ass smile on her face.
"You think!" she said, emphasizing on the word 'think.' I sighed. Maybe i shouldn't think about it, because i'll only make it worse. I looked at the clock hanging on the wall, and it was 5 o'clock.
Well, it'd take a while for me to dress, so I better run home for now.
"Levy-chan, I'm going home. I don't want to be getting ready and Natsu is already waiting for me." I said.
"Sure, go ahead! It would be embarrassing if that happened..." she said. I nodded my head as I sped through the guild doors, through the busy street, up the apartment's stairs and into my home.
I breathed heavily, all the while gasping for air.
"Better get started." I muttered, as I quickly went into the bathroom.
( ME NOT KNOW WHAT TO WRITE ABOUT DRESSING, SO ME SKIP PART.)
I finished doing my hair, and I stood in front of the mirror.
"Hmmm, looks great for a casual kind of date, no, it's perfect for formal and casual." I said, inspecting my outfit. I had a black high-waist skirt with a button up shirt tucked inside, and folded sleeves reaching up to my elbow. I had a few bracelets on, and a belt hung on my waist.
I had black ballet flats, and an anklet on my right foot. My hair was in a messy bun.
(It sounds kind of weird, but I really can't explain how awesome the outfit looks in reality.)
I was so busy inspecting myself, that I didn't realize that the door opened. A pair of familiar arms wrapped around my waist.
"You look great!" exclaimed Natsu, as he looked at my reflection in the mirror. I pushed myself away from him, my face flushed.
"What are you doing here!" I exclaimed quickly, steam around my hot face.
"Haha, I came inside silly! Why, should I have stayed outside?" he asked.
"No....just, okay fine I'm done." I said.
"Good, now let's get going, shall we?" he asked. I nodded my head and the two of us walked outside together. He linked his arms with mine.
Seriously, I can't believe this. I blush, but I can't smile? What the hell is up with that?!
"Blame you other half not yourself." said Natsu. Oops, guess I said that out loud.
"So? Where are we going?" I asked.
"Well, I kind of wanted to change things a little, you know, give you another experience so we're going to the cinema! And we're going to watch the movie that you so badly wanted to see!" he said, smiling.
"Really? Thank you!" I said gratefully.
"You sound grateful, but you don't look grateful." said Natsu. He stopped walking and placed his hands on the side of my mouth.
"What are you doing?" I ask, in between his pulling.
"Making you smile.........There! You look...........maybe you should do it on your own cause I'm terrible at this." he said, pulling his hands away.
"That's proof that you can't make me smile." I said teasingly.
"You wanna bet?" he asked, looking at me with a glint in his eye. We soon arrived at the theater, and it was busy! Natsu went and bought the tickets, leaving me alone for like, 5 seconds before returning.
"How are you here so quickly?" I asked in confusion.
"I didn't wanna leave ya alone." he said. We went inside and I knew Natsu would be drooling at all the popcorn. I was right when he immediately ran up to the counter.
Oh dear, guess I have no choice but to allow you?" I asked.
"Thank you Lucy!" he exclaimed, placing a kiss on my cheek and ordered all the food that was there.
0//o//0 I was blushing at how cute he was. Next thing I know, I'm walking into the theater room with a boyfriend that has all the food that was advertised. My lord......
'Here, I got you some soda and popcorn!" he said, handing me the items.
"Thank you, but I'm trying to slim down." I said.
"Huh? But Lucy, you're not fat and I like your appearance!" he said casually. My face heated up. He said that so casually!
"Well..........if you put it that way." I said, while I sipped the soda. He smiled cheekily.
Before, when I saw the advertisement of the movie, they didn't show any scary part, but they lied! I'm staring at the screen right now and suddenly, this scary-ass face just pops out!
"Holy shit!" I cursed, quite shocked and scared of what I just saw. Natsu glanced at my sudden outburst before laughing. Another scary scene appears, but I was too scared to say anything as I just sat there shaking.
I felt a warm embrace. I looked to see myself being hugged by Natsu.
"Maybe this'll take your fears away!" he said smiling.
Awww, such a sweat-heart. Why didn't I start dating him the moment I entered Fairy Tail?!
Maybe because you were to oblivious about his feelings.
Shut up inner me! Great, now I'm having a conflict between my emotions on the inside.
"Lucy~. The movie's done! I have somewhere else planned!" sang Natsu. I snapped out of my thoughts and I looked at him. He dragged me up from my seat, and the two of us walked out.
"So.....where are we going now?" I asked. Natsu looked over at me smiling.
"Somewhere that'll take away your stress!" he said smiling, as he popped out two tickets.
"Huh? Those are.........." I said, reading the labels.
"They're for this popular hot springs nearby!" he said.
"We're really going there?!" I asked excited. He nodded his head. But then something hit me,...I don't have clothes to change into! And we're staying the night there!
"Natsu.......I don't have clothes." I said.
"No problem! I called Erza and the others to rampage through your clothes and they packed it up. They're bringing it at the place!" he exclaimed.
Uwah! He is so thoughtful! But my closet was broken into......
"Thank you.......Natsu." I said with a lot of gratitude. Natsu stopped walking.
"You said that earlier, and you're saying it again. But this time, it reminds me of that time where I almost killed you." he said. Wait, he was probably referring to when he took me to that Sakura festival without Mira or Wendy's knowing.
"It's true! And, let's forget about the past." I said, tapping his head.
We walked on and started walking on a gravel path. A big cottage-looking hot-springs resort emerged at the end of the path. It felt tropical. All the little rooms, or huts I should say, had straw roofs. There were palm trees and coconut trees everywhere.
The place was lit fully, and a lot of the light was somewhere in the middle. Another big tropical flat hut was in front of us, where we stood now. It had the word 'reception' on it. Natsu and I walked in.
"Hi, I made a reservation earlier." said Natsu, as he handed the tickets. The guy looked at them before nodding his head and giving us a map of the area.......in case we got lost.
How big was this place?!
"Wait.........I checked the computer here with your reservation and it says that it's a party for two?" asked the guy.
"Yeah."
"But earlier, some people came here, paid for tickets and said that they're meeting up with your party." said the guy.
"I don't know what-----"
"Lucy! Natsu!"
We both turned around and sweat-dropped.
"What are you guys doing here?!" exclaimed Natsu.
"Well, you can't expect us to drop of this duffel bag full of Lucy's clothes at this popular hot-springs resort without staying ourselves!" said Erza, holding up the bag.
"But-----" started Natsu. I placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Relax. This is great, because we can all spend time together." I said. I knew he wanted us to be alone.
"Yeah, and we're not going to have Lucy for the entire time, because we will give her to you later." said Gray.
"Really?! Thanks guys." said Natsu. We all picked up our bags, and walked out the exit. You see, the hut was wide, and they had chairs and tables, along with a few staff and tour flyers. Your typical reception.
Plus, the hut was kind of like a walk through, so to get to the other side, which was the rest of the hot-springs resort, you had to walk through this building.
"Wow! This place is huge!" exclaimed Wendy.
"Yeah! And I thought it was a hot springs only, but they proved me wrong. There are like, three pools in the middle here with a bar!"
"And all of it is night service!"
"But we're here for the night and for the hot-springs which is ALL NATURAL, BY THE WAY!"
"Yay!"
We branched off into rooms, and of course, I had to be with the girls. Sad.... Before we walked into the room, Natsu held my hand.
"Don't worry, we'll have plenty of fun before we separate, okay?"
I nodded my head.
Erza, Wendy and I emerged from the room with some mighty fine bathing suits. Of course, we wanted to do a joint hot springs, so the girls and I wanted to keep it safe and told the guys to wear swimming trunks.
Remember, we have Wendy with us.
We met up with the guys and all of us followed the big-ass map. We soon reached the area, and it was lovely! The natural hot water pool had a little man-made waterfall near it, and chairs and tables were on the ground nearby.
Plus, we had this place to ourselves!
"I think i'll get used to the area before I get in." I said.
"Oh no you don't!" said Natsu, as he lifted me up on his shoulders, before climbing in the water and pushing me under the waterfall. I waved my hands everywhere from the hot water before I was pulled out.
"What the hell was that for?!"
"We're having fun babe!" he said. I blushed. Aww, he just called me 'babe'!
We relaxed into the water, playing little games here and there and ordering drinks.
Of course, we all began to get tired due to the hot water, so we got out. Surprisingly, the air was not cold. All of us walked back to our huts, saying that we'll meet outside again in awhile after changing.
Everyone changed into robes, and we met outside. There, we sat on the grass, looking up at the sky.
We talked for awhile before I yawned........unexpectedly.
"Tired?" asked Gray. I slowly nodded my head.
"I'll bring her inside." said Natsu, as he got up and dragged me along with him..........literally.
Inside, my back hit the soft bed, and I cuddled immediately. I felt a small kiss on my head as I opened my eyes.
"You know......tonight was great." he said.
"Yeah, thanks to you." I said.
"You look like you're not telling me something.." said Natsu smirking.
"Yeah, it's a big secret. You'll know later. It's a surprise I didn't look different in my bathing suit today." I replied.
"Different? You were practically in the water halfway that I couldn't do anything." said Natsu.
"That's why I love you, you say the nicest things." I replied, drifting off to sleep.
NATSU'S POV
I left her inside the air conditioned hut..........which is very weird. I mean, what kind of hut has air conditioning and tiled floors and concrete walls?! Along with plumbing and electrical lights everywhere?!
"She's asleep already?" asked Happy.
"Yeah." I replied.
"Lucy........she may not do so well." said Wendy. All eyes turned towards her immediately.
"What do you mean?" asked Charle.
"You all know that she is not fully herself, right?" she asked.
"Yeah. She's Lucy, but has some features of her past self." said Gray.
"Exactly. Those features are to not smile, and she was sick before, which means that she is still sick. Now that she's back, the only thing that remained and is very powerful now is her powers. And they are to their full extent. This is decreasing Lucy's health." explained Wendy.
"So what are you trying to say?"
"Lucy..........I just......things might not go well for her. And she knows that." replied Wendy.
"That means that she'll try something to.......not be a burden on us?"
"Probably."
