~Lucy's POV~

It was Monday and we had a day off, so we have school the next day. I still couldn't believe I kissed him in front of the whole class. I showered and changed into my pyjamas. Even if it's still noon, I'm not planning to go outside so rather dress in something comfortable, right?

I was busy writing the last chapter of my novel. I heard something from my window. I thought it was just a tree or something like that so I shrugged it off. "Yo," someone said. I stood frozen there and slowly turned around and saw Natsu leaning against the door.

"Natsu," I shrieked. "What the hell are you doing in here, in my house, in my room?" I screamed.

He had a smile on his face even when he was still trying to figure out if his ear was working.

"I was bored so I came to visit you," he said like there is nothing wrong with it.

I let out an irritated sigh and trying to contain my anger. "You can't just invite yourself into my house. What if I was naked?"

He smirked. "Then I'd be a very happy man."

Gosh I hate him. My heart seems to disagree though.

"What do you want to do?" I asked, changing the topic.

"Want to go the amusement park?"

I gestured to my PJ, a disbelieving look on my face. "I wanted a lazy day."

"You can get a lazy day there," he said, giving me a charming smile.

Not gonna work, buddy.

"I don't want to."

The end of his lips tugged upwards. "You either go into your PJ, or a cute outfit. You're going, even if that means I have to drag you."

I clenched my hands, scoffing.

He raised his eyebrow, still that stupid grin on his face. "You know how my blackmail works by now. Do you think I'm joking?"

Fuck him and his good looks.

I let out a scowl and turned to my wardrobe. "Fuck you." I knew he would make his threat come true.

He smiled smugly at me and threw himself on my bed. He scrolled through his phone while I picked out an outfit.

I changed into a cute black skirt and a white crop top. I had a black short under it in the event something happens. I looked in the mirror, eyeing myself.

I didn't particularly hate how I looked, but I don't stand out as much as Mira for example. "What do you think?" I asked as I put on some accessories.

Natsu glanced at me, his eyes scanning me up and done. "Looking as amazing as ever."

I rolled my eyes and threw a pen towards him. "And now seriously."

He ruffled his hair, sitting up. "I was serious. You look hot as hell. You always do."

My eyes softened, detecting no lie. "Let's go," I said, grabbing my phone.

He grinned and we went to an amusement park. We went to a rollar coaster first. I was a little cautious, but Natsu assured me it was alright.

"Natsu, can you win a prize for me?" I asked while pointing to a play thing. "Sure," and I dragged him to the thing were you throw things to win thing (I obviously suck at describing things, forgot the name too).

"Hello, I want three balls to throw at the cups," Natsu said and the man nodded. He gave Natsu the balls after he paid. He threw it and by the first try he scored. He threw at the others cups too... but those were for other persons who where playing it.

I smacked his head. "Idiot, those weren't for you," I whispered loudly, not trying to make a scene.

But it seems like I didn't even need to try. Girls all over the park drooled over him, adoring his features. And the way he holds himself had a big factor to do with it.

He rubbed his back head and laugh awkwardly. "Oops," he said and I facepalmed. I apologized to the persons and we still got an award.

I chose a fluffy white dog. I named it plue and smiled widely. "Thank you, Natsu," and he just smiled. We went to other attractions. "Don't we have to go home? It's getting late," I said while looking at the sky, it became darker with every minute that passes.

He shook his head. "Just wait a little longer, soon there will be fireworks." We walked towards a place where it was less crowded.

He turned to me, his eyes suddenly curious. "Why do you live alone?"

I shrugged. "I don't. My brother is the CEO of the Heartfilia company now, so he's extremely busy. Because he's so determined to make it bigger, he's always traveling. He sleeps in hotels most of the times."

He nodded. "That must suck. Don't you miss your brother."

I almost bumped into someone because Natsu's sudden interest in my relationship with my brother had me distracted.

"I do," I whispered. "He's the only close family I've left."

He intertwined his hand with mine. He brought it close to his mouth, placing a soft kiss on it. It was so random my cheeks flushed red immediately.

"Please tell him. I'd give up my life to be able to talk to Zeref one more time," he whispered.

I let out a gasp and tightened my grip on his hands. Fuck. That's rude, talking about my healthy brother while he's dealt with the death of his.

He shook his head. "Sorry. Didn't mean to bring that up. Do tell him though, I'm sure he misses you too."

To make the atmosphere a little brighter, I scoffed. "Of course he does. I'm the best sister in the world."

He chuckled. "Wendy would make you take those words back."

I grinned as the adorable face of hers came into my imagination.

We sat on a hill, waiting. I shivered a little bit from the coldness. Natsu saw it and put his scarf around me. I froze, dropping my eyes to the scarf.

I closed my eyes, breathing in. That he trusted me with this scarf is heartwarming.

"Are you sure? It was from Ze—"

He waved his hand. "Don't worry about it. It's fine," he said. I wanted to say something, but the firework show began.

We both looked amazed. The lights of the fireworks brighted the dark sky. The different colors making it so beautiful.

I hid the most part of my face in the scarf, breathing it all in. This scarf smells... fresh. It smells like Natsu.

We slept in the same bed the whole school trip, of course I would know how he smells.

I turned my face lightly to his. His mouth was parted and his cheeks red, probably because of the cold. His eyes shone with every firework that exploded. Slowly, his mouth formed into a smile, and he looked lost in his thought.

No doubt recalling his favorite memories as child.

He was so beautiful.

I felt myself smiling with him, my hands gripping the grass tightly. I felt giddy after kissing him on the podium.

He turned his head to me and stared for a while. His eyes softening.

He leaned closer.

My mouth opened as I stared at him. He was going to kiss me...

My insides were turning and I felt myself getting sick.

I quickly put my hand over his mouth, preventing the kiss. I pulled the scarf away and gave it to him.

I quickly ran away mumbing a 'I'm sorry.' He stood there dumbfounded.

Can't believe that almost happened. I didn't know I wanted air before I exhaled and inhaled.

It's not like I didn't want to kiss him, Believe me, I did want to. It's just... I want to know if he feels the same.

He can't expect me to return the kiss every time. I want to know he's fine first. If he let down his walls enough to let me in.

Not that he'll suddenly lose him temper and goes all berserk with me. I want us both to feel comfortable enough to continue.

He has a lot to make up for, and I'm not giving what he wants so easily. He had to earn me too.

I'm sure I developed a crush for him.

I want to feel like he's putting effort in whatever he's doing.

And right now, I don't. I still feel like this is a prank, even when knowing it isn't.

And I have to work on that, otherwise the feeling will haunt me every time when I'm with Natsu.
